Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wine cabinets, in particular to a red wine refrigerating cabinet. Background Art

[0002] The red wine refrigerator includes a cabinet body and a refrigeration unit installed above the cabinet body. The red wine can be placed in the cabinet body, and the refrigeration unit cools the red wine for refrigeration. The height of the red wine refrigerator cabinet body is usually equivalent to the height of an ordinary adult standing up, about 2 meters, so that the user can put the red wine into the cabinet while standing. The refrigeration unit is located above the cabinet body, and it is difficult for an ordinary adult to touch the refrigeration unit while standing, so it is difficult to maintain the faulty refrigeration unit. Therefore, when the maintenance personnel maintain the refrigeration unit, they need to climb to a high place with the help of a ladder, and then either stand directly on the ladder to maintain the refrigeration unit, or remove the refrigeration unit from the top of the cabinet and move it to the ground for maintenance. If the former is selected, the maintenance personnel need to stand on the ladder throughout the maintenance process, which is inconvenient to operate; if the latter is selected, the maintenance personnel need to stand on the ladder to move the heavy refrigeration unit away from the top of the cabinet, which is inconvenient to operate. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a red wine refrigerator which is easy to maintain, and the maintenance personnel can move the refrigeration unit away from the cabinet body for maintenance without standing on a ladder.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model is a red wine refrigerator that is easy to maintain, including a cabinet for placing red wine and a refrigeration unit installed above the cabinet. The refrigeration unit is used to cool the red wine placed in the cabinet. A mounting cross plate is provided above the cabinet, and the refrigeration unit is detachably mounted on the mounting cross plate; it includes at least two parallel connecting rods, the upper ends of the two connecting rods have the same height and are respectively hinged to the mounting cross plates, and the lower ends have the same height and are respectively hinged to the cabinet side walls. The cabinet side walls are provided with limiting parts, and the two connecting rods can swing downward synchronously to drive the mounting cross plate and the refrigeration unit to swing downward and away from the top of the cabinet until the mounting cross plate and the refrigeration unit are lower than the top of the cabinet and the limiting parts block the connecting rods so that the connecting rods cannot continue to swing downward.

[0005] Furthermore, it includes a buffer spring, one end of which is connected to the side wall of the cabinet, and the other end is connected to the connecting rod. When the connecting rod swings downward, the buffer spring is positively stretched to cause the buffer spring to undergo elastic deformation. The deformed buffer spring exerts a reverse elastic force on the connecting rod, thereby reducing the swinging speed of the connecting rod to achieve buffering.

[0006] Furthermore, the connecting rod is provided with a threaded hole, and the side wall of the cabinet is provided with a locking hole aligned with the threaded hole; it includes a locking bolt, which is screwed into the threaded hole of the connecting rod and its tail is inserted into the locking hole of the side wall of the cabinet, thereby locking the connecting rod so that the connecting rod cannot swing forward, and the locking bolt can be withdrawn from the locking hole, thereby releasing the lock on the connecting rod.

[0007] Furthermore, the connecting rod is an inclined rod with a low front and a high rear. The connecting rod in the inclined state swings forward and upward, driving the mounting cross plate and the refrigeration unit to swing forward and upward until the rear of the mounting cross plate and the rear of the refrigeration unit are located above the front of the cabinet and the connecting rod is in a vertical state. The connecting rod in the vertical state swings forward and downward, driving the mounting cross plate and the refrigeration unit to swing forward and downward away from the top of the cabinet.

[0008] Furthermore, the cabinet height is 1.9 to 2.1 meters.

[0009] Furthermore, a ventilation port is opened on the top of the cabinet and a vent is opened on the installation horizontal plate, the vent is aligned with the ventilation port of the cabinet, and a hot air inlet and a cold air outlet are provided at the bottom of the refrigeration unit. The hot air inlet is downwardly aligned with the vent to allow the hot air of the cabinet to enter the refrigeration unit upward, and the cold air outlet is downwardly aligned with the vent to allow the cold air of the refrigeration unit to enter the cabinet downward.

[0010] When the maintenance personnel move the refrigeration unit away from the top of the cabinet, they do not need to stand on the ladder. They only need to turn the two connecting rods by hand, so that the two connecting rods swing downward synchronously to drive the installation cross plate and the refrigeration unit to swing downward away from the top of the cabinet, and in this way, the installation cross plate and the refrigeration unit are moved away from the top of the cabinet. The connecting rod swings downward until the installation cross plate and the refrigeration unit are lower than the top of the cabinet and the limiter blocks the connecting rod so that the connecting rod cannot continue to swing downward. In this state, since the cabinet height is usually equivalent to the height of an ordinary adult standing up, and the installation cross plate and the refrigeration unit are lower than the top of the cabinet, that is, the maintenance personnel can reach out and touch the installation cross plate and the refrigeration unit while standing. The maintenance personnel can choose to maintain the refrigeration unit while standing, or they can choose to first remove the refrigeration unit from the installation cross plate while standing and then move it to the ground for maintenance. Regardless of whether they choose the former or the latter, the maintenance personnel do not need to stand on the ladder, which is convenient for operation. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0020] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0021] Easy-to-maintain wine refrigerator Figure 1 and Figure 3 , including a cabinet 1, the cabinet 1 is hinged with a cabinet door 100, a red wine rack 11 is arranged in the cabinet 1, and red wine can be placed on the red wine rack 11. The height of the cabinet 1 is 1.9 to 2.1 meters, preferably 2 meters, which is equivalent to the height of an ordinary adult standing up, so that the user can put the red wine into the cabinet 1 while standing. A mounting horizontal plate 2 (see Figure 7 ), install the horizontal plate 2 (see Figure 7 ) is detachably mounted with a refrigeration unit 3 by bolt connection. Figure 4 and Figure 5 The cabinet 1 has a ventilation port 10 extending vertically on the top, and the mounting cross plate 2 has a ventilation port 20 extending vertically, and the ventilation port 20 is aligned with the ventilation port 10. The refrigeration unit 3 is a prior art, and has a hot air inlet 31 and a cold air outlet 32 ​​at its bottom. Figure 1In the state, the hot air inlet 31 and the cold air outlet 32 ​​are respectively directed downwardly toward the vent 20. When the refrigeration unit 3 is working, the hot air of the cabinet 1 is drawn upward from the hot air inlet 31, and the hot air of the cabinet 1 passes through the ventilation port 10, the vent 20 and the hot air inlet 31 in sequence, and enters the refrigeration unit 3 upward. The refrigeration unit 3 cools the hot air to generate cold air, and then discharges the cold air into the cabinet 1 from the cold air outlet 32, and the cold air passes through the cold air outlet 32, the vent 20 and the ventilation port 10 in sequence, and enters the cabinet 1 downward to cool the red wine placed in the cabinet 1.

[0022] See Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 Two connecting shafts 21 are installed on the mounting cross plate 2. The left ends of the two connecting shafts 21 extend to the left side of the cabinet body 1, and the right ends extend to the right side of the cabinet body 1. The wine refrigerator includes left and right connecting rod units 41 and 42. Take the left connecting rod unit 41 as an example. Figure 1 , Figure 2 The left connecting rod unit 41 includes two parallel connecting rods 411 and 412. The two connecting rods 411 and 412 are inclined rods with the front lower and the rear higher and are arranged side by side. The upper ends 413 of the two connecting rods 411 and 412 are at the same height and are respectively hinged to the left ends of the two connecting shafts 21, so as to indirectly hinge and install the cross plate 2 (see Figure 4 ), the lower ends 414 of the two connecting rods 411 and 412 are at the same height and are respectively hinged to the left side wall 12 of the cabinet 1. Figure 5 , Figure 6 The two connecting rods 411 and 412 are respectively provided with two threaded holes 415, and the left side wall 12 of the cabinet body 1 is provided with two locking holes 125. Figure 1 In the state, the two locking holes 125 are aligned with the two threaded holes 415 respectively, and the left connecting rod unit 41 includes two locking bolts 43, which are respectively screwed into the two threaded holes 415 of the connecting rods 411 and 412, and the tails of the two locking bolts 43 are respectively inserted into the two locking holes 125 of the left side wall 12 of the cabinet body 1. Figure 2 As described above, locking the connecting rods 411 and 412 in this way prevents the connecting rods 411 and 412 from swinging forward. The two locking bolts 43 can be withdrawn from the two locking holes 125 respectively, thereby releasing the lock of the connecting rods 411 and 412. The left connecting rod unit 41 includes a buffer spring 44, one end of which is connected to the left side wall 12 of the cabinet 1, and the other end is connected to the rear connecting rod 412. The right connecting rod unit 42 is symmetrical with the left connecting rod unit 41 in structure, including two connecting rods 421 and 422 and two locking bolts 43, which will not be described here. Figure 2 , Figure 3The left and right side walls 12 and 13 of the cabinet body 1 are respectively provided with left and right limit parts 126 and 136. The left limit part 126 is located in front and below the rear connecting rod 412 of the left connecting rod unit 41. The right limit part 136 is symmetrical with the left limit part 126 in structure, and will not be described in detail. The wine refrigerator includes four panels 51, 52, 53, and 54, namely, left, right, front, and rear. The left and right panels 51 and 52 are fixed on the top wall of the cabinet body 1, and the front and rear panels 53 and 54 are detachably mounted on the left and right panels 51 and 52 by bolt connection.

[0023] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 When the wine refrigerator has a poor refrigeration effect, the maintenance personnel first climb to a high place with the help of a ladder, and then remove the front panel 53 to expose the refrigeration unit 3 to the front. In this way, the refrigeration unit 3 can be checked to determine whether the refrigeration unit 3 has a fault. If the maintenance personnel find that the refrigeration unit 3 has a fault and needs to move the refrigeration unit 3 away from the top of the cabinet 1 for maintenance, the maintenance personnel does not need to continue standing on the ladder. They can first climb down the ladder and then let the locking bolts 43 of the left and right connecting rod units 41 and 42 release the lock on the connecting rods 411, 412, 421, and 422. The maintenance personnel stands on the ground on the left or right side of the cabinet 1 and turns the connecting rod of the left connecting rod unit 41 or the right connecting rod unit 42 by hand. Taking the left connecting rod unit 41 as an example, see Figure 7 The maintenance personnel manually rotate the two connecting rods 411 and 412 of the left connecting rod unit 41 forward, so that the two connecting rods 411 and 412 in the inclined state swing forward and upward synchronously, driving the two connecting shafts 21, the installation cross plate 2 and the refrigeration unit 3 to swing forward and upward together, until the rear of the installation cross plate 2 and the rear of the refrigeration unit 3 are located above the front of the cabinet 1 and the two connecting rods 411 and 412 are in a vertical state. Figure 8 The maintenance personnel continue to manually rotate the two connecting rods 411 and 412 of the left connecting rod unit 41 forward, so that the two connecting rods 411 and 412 in the vertical state swing forward and downward synchronously, driving the two connecting shafts 21, the mounting cross plate 2 and the refrigeration unit 3 to swing forward and downward together away from the top of the cabinet 1, until the left limit portion 126 blocks the rear connecting rod 412 of the left connecting rod unit 41, so that the two connecting rods 411 and 412 of the left connecting rod unit 41 cannot continue to swing downward, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 and Fig. 9As shown, in this state, the installation cross plate 2 and the refrigeration unit 3 are lower than the top of the cabinet 1. Since the height of the cabinet 1 is 1.9 to 2.1 meters, which is equivalent to the height of an ordinary adult standing up, and the installation cross plate 2 and the refrigeration unit 3 are lower than the top of the cabinet 1, that is, the maintenance personnel can reach out and touch the installation cross plate 2 and the refrigeration unit 3 in the standing state. The maintenance personnel can choose to stand to maintain the refrigeration unit 3, or they can choose to stand to remove the refrigeration unit 3 from the installation cross plate 2 and then move it to the ground for maintenance. No matter whether they choose the former or the latter, the maintenance personnel do not need to stand on the ladder, which is convenient for operation.

[0024] See Figure 3 and Figure 5 The left and right panels 51 and 52 are respectively provided with left and right avoidance grooves 511 and 521, and the shapes of the left and right avoidance grooves 511 and 521 are exactly the same as the swinging tracks of the two connecting shafts 21, so the left and right panels 51 and 52 will not affect the swinging of the two connecting shafts 21 and the connecting rods 411, 412, 413, and 414 of the left and right connecting rod units 41 and 42. When the two connecting rods 411 and 412 of the left connecting rod unit 41 swing forward, the rear connecting rod 412 of the left connecting rod unit 41 will positively stretch the buffer spring 44 to cause the buffer spring 44 to undergo elastic deformation, and the deformed buffer spring 44 will apply a reverse elastic force to the connecting rod 412, thereby reducing the swinging speed of the connecting rod 412 to achieve buffering, so the rear connecting rod 412 of the left connecting rod unit 41 will only contact the left limit portion 126 at a slower speed, and will not hit the left limit portion 126 at a faster speed. The two connecting rods 411 and 412 of the left connecting rod unit 41 will drive the two connecting rods 421 and 422 of the right connecting rod unit 42 to swing forward through the two connecting shafts 21 during the swinging process. In other words, the left and right connecting rod units 41 and 42 swing synchronously, and the buffer spring 44 of the right connecting rod unit 42 will also buffer the connecting rods 421 and 422 during the swinging process, which will not be described in detail here. When the left limiting portion 126 blocks the connecting rods 411 and 412 of the left connecting rod unit 41, the right limiting portion 136 just blocks the connecting rods 421 and 422 of the right connecting rod unit 42.

[0025] Second embodiment:

[0026] The second embodiment has a substantially similar structure to the first embodiment, except that: Figure 8 The wine refrigerator of the second embodiment eliminates the four panels on the left, right, front and rear. If the maintenance personnel find that the refrigeration unit 3 needs to be moved away from the cabinet 1 for maintenance, they do not need to stand on the ladder, but only need to stand on the ground, first release the locking bolt 43 on the connecting rods 411, 412, 421 (see Figure 3 )、422(See Figure 3) is locked, and then the connecting rods 411 and 412 are rotated to allow the connecting rods 411 and 412 to drive the installation cross plate 2 and the refrigeration unit 3 to swing forward, which will not be described in detail here.

[0027] The above is only an implementation method of the invention, and does not limit the scope of patent protection. Those skilled in the art can make non-substantial changes or substitutions based on the invention, which still fall within the scope of patent protection.
