[0055] A refrigerator is a refrigeration device that maintains a constant low temperature, and is also a civilian product that keeps food or other items at a constant low temperature. Usually, a refrigerator is provided with an openable door assembly 100, which is rotatably connected to the box body through a hinge 40, so as to realize the opening and closing of the refrigerator. In order to improve the user experience, the design of the hinge 40 connecting the door assembly 100 is continuously optimized, which brings about the complexity and increase of the volume of the hinge 40.

[0056] In the related art, the refrigerator usually has the hinge 40 externally mounted on the door assembly 100, which reduces the appearance of the refrigerator.

[0057] After repeated thinking and verification, the inventor discovered that if the end cover assembly 20 is set to two structures, namely, an end cover 21 and a fixing seat 22, and the end cover 21 and the fixing seat 22 are connected by a snap-fit ​​structure 30, a receiving cavity 211 for receiving the hinge 40 can be set on the end cover 21, and the hinge 40 received in the receiving cavity 211 can be shielded by the fixing seat 22. In this way, the hinge 40 can be operated, and the split design of the end cover assembly 20 is also convenient for processing, so that the hinge 40 can be hidden on the side of the exterior, thereby improving the overall appearance of the door body assembly 100, thereby providing the user with a better visual effect during use.

[0058] In view of this, the present application provides a refrigerator, comprising: a box body; a door body assembly 100, the door body assembly 100 is rotatably arranged on the box body; the door body assembly 100 includes a door panel 10 and an end cover assembly 20, the end cover assembly 20 includes an end cover 21 and a fixing seat 22, the end cover 21 is arranged at one end of the door panel 10, and a accommodating cavity 211 is provided on one side of the end cover 21, the accommodating cavity 211 is configured to accommodate a hinge 40, the fixing seat 22 is connected to one side of the end cover 21, and the fixing seat 22 is configured to cover the hinge 40; a snap structure 30 is provided between the end cover 21 and the fixing seat 22, and along the thickness direction of the door panel 10, the snap structure 30 is located on one side of the accommodating cavity 211.

[0059] The hinge 40 can be operated by being arranged in the accommodating cavity 211. The snap-fit ​​assembly design of the fixing seat 22 and the end cover 21 can facilitate the processing of the end cover assembly 20. The hinge 40 can be hidden on the side of the exterior by shielding the fixing seat 22, thereby improving the overall appearance of the door body assembly 100 and providing the user with a better visual effect during use.

[0067] The hinge 40 is arranged through the accommodating cavity 211, and can be connected to the box body, so that the door panel 10 is rotatably arranged on the box body through the hinge 40. The hinge 40 is shielded by the fixing seat 22 arranged on one side of the end cover 21, so that the hinge 40 can be hidden on the outer side of the door panel 10, thereby improving the overall appearance of the door body assembly 100, thereby providing a better visual effect to the user during use.

[0068] like Figures 2 to 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the end cap 21 and the fixing seat 22 are connected by a buckle structure 30. The buckle structure 30 is disposed between the end cap 21 and the fixing seat 22. The buckle structure 30 can realize the split assembly design of the end cap 21 and the fixing seat 22, which is convenient for processing the end cap 21 and the fixing seat 22 separately, and at the same time improves the stability of the connection between the end cap 21 and the fixing seat 22. In addition, the end cap 21 and the fixing seat 22 of the split design can also be injection molded by a mold, which reduces the problem of injection molding and improves the convenience of processing.

[0113] The door body assembly 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a door panel 10 and an end cover assembly 20, the end cover assembly 20 includes an end cover 21 and a fixing seat 22, the end cover 21 is arranged at one end of the door panel 10, a receiving cavity 211 is arranged on one side of the end cover 21, the receiving cavity 211 is configured to receive the hinge 40, the fixing seat 22 is connected to one side of the end cover 21, and the fixing seat 22 is configured to cover the hinge 40; a snap structure 30 is provided between the end cover 21 and the fixing seat 22, and the snap structure 30 is located on one side of the receiving cavity 211 along the thickness direction of the door panel 10.

[0114] The hinge 40 can be installed by setting the accommodating cavity 211 to realize the operation of the hinge 40. The snap-fit ​​assembly design of the fixing seat 22 and the end cover 21 can facilitate the processing of the end cover assembly 20. The hinge 40 can be hidden on the side of the appearance by covering the fixing seat 22, thereby improving the overall appearance of the door body assembly 100, thereby bringing better visual effects to users during use.

[0115] In addition, the embodiment of the present application further provides a refrigerator, including a box body and a door assembly 100. The door assembly 100 is rotatably arranged on the box body. The door assembly 100 is used to realize the opening and closing of the box body, so as to facilitate the taking and placing of food or other items in the refrigerator.

[0116] The specific structure, working principle and function of the door assembly 100 have been described in detail in the above embodiments and will not be repeated here.

[0117] The refrigerator provided in the present application can realize the operation of the hinge 40 by installing the hinge 40 through the setting of the accommodating cavity 211. The snap-fit ​​assembly design of the fixing seat 22 and the end cover 21 can facilitate the processing of the end cover assembly 20. The hinge 40 is shielded by the fixing seat 22, so that the hinge 40 can be hidden on the side of the appearance, thereby improving the overall appearance of the door body assembly 100, thereby bringing better visual effects to users during use.
