[0041] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0042] The present application provides a fresh-keeping space, which is applied to a refrigerator and is used to store items with specific requirements for temperature, humidity, etc. or items with high fresh-keeping requirements. The refrigerator may be a single-door, double-door, side-by-side, French, cross-type refrigerator or other types of refrigerators. For example, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 2 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the fresh-keeping space provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 The fresh-keeping compartment 100 includes a compartment body 110 and a soft air component 120 .

[0043] Among them, a fresh-keeping space 111 and an air supply duct 112 are formed inside the chamber body 110. The air supply duct 112 is provided with an air inlet 113 and an air outlet 114 that are connected to each other. The air outlet 114 is connected to the fresh-keeping space 111. The soft wind component 120 is arranged in the air supply duct 112 to disperse the cold air flowing from the air inlet 113 to the air outlet 114.

[0044] It should be noted that the air inlet 113 is used to communicate with the cooling air duct of the refrigerator, and the cooling air duct injects the generated cold air into the air supply duct 112 through the air inlet 113. In actual application, the cold air enters the air supply duct 112 through the air inlet 113. Under the effect of the soft wind component 120 on the cold air, the distribution of the cold air in the air supply duct gradually becomes uniform and the flow rate slows down, and the cold air is evenly and slowly discharged to the fresh-keeping space 111 through the air outlet 114. It can be understood that after the cold air enters the fresh-keeping space 111, it can be more evenly distributed in various areas inside the fresh-keeping space 111 and flow softly in the space.

[0045] The fresh-keeping compartment 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application adds a soft wind component 120 in the air supply duct 112 to disperse the cold air flowing from the air inlet 113 to the air outlet 114, thereby changing the air outlet direction and reducing the air outlet speed, thereby improving the uniformity and softness of the air outlet 114 to the fresh-keeping space 111, avoiding direct blowing of the items in the fresh-keeping space 111, and at the same time being able to improve the uniformity of the temperature of each area in the fresh-keeping space 111, thereby improving the fresh-keeping effect.

[0046] For further information, see Figure 3 , Figure 3 The following is a schematic diagram of the structure of the soft wind piece provided for the embodiment. The soft wind piece 120 is provided with at least two wind guide grooves 121 and at least two wind guide holes 122. The wind guide groove 121 is recessed and formed on the side of the soft wind piece 120 facing the air inlet 113. The wind guide hole 122 is arranged at the bottom of the wind guide groove 121 and is connected to the air outlet 114. Among them, the wind guiding directions of any two wind guide grooves 121 on the soft wind piece 120 are different; illustratively, the wind guiding direction of the wind guide groove 121 can be the extension direction of the wind guide groove 121.

[0047] In actual application, the cold air flows through the air inlet 113 to the surface of the soft wind piece 120 facing the air inlet 113, then flows into the air guide groove 121, and then flows along the air guide direction of the air guide groove 121 until it flows out from the air guide hole 122. It can be understood that since the air guide directions of any two air guide grooves 121 on the soft wind piece 120 are different, the cold air is dispersed on the soft wind piece 120 and diverted in multiple directions. In this way, the soft wind piece 120 plays a role in breaking up and slowing down the cold air, so that the cold air becomes uniform and soft after flowing out through the soft wind piece 120.

[0048] In some embodiments, the soft wind member 120 is further provided with an air inlet portion 123 connected to the air inlet port 113, the air inlet end of each air guide slot 121 is connected to the air inlet portion 123, and the air guide hole 122 is formed on the air guide slot 121 at one end away from the air inlet portion 123. The plurality of air guide slots 121 are centrally symmetrically distributed with the air inlet portion 123 as the center.

[0049] Exemplarily, the air inlet 123 is concavely formed on the side of the soft wind member 120 facing the air inlet 113, and a notch 1211 is provided on the side wall of the air guide groove 121 close to the air inlet 123, and the notch 1211 forms the air inlet end of the air guide groove 121, and the notch 1211 is connected to the inside of the air inlet 123. In actual application, after the cold air enters the air inlet 123, it is evenly dispersed into the multiple air guide grooves 121 to be diverted in multiple directions, and finally evenly flows out from the multiple air guide holes 122. In addition, under the guiding effect of the groove wall of the air guide groove 121, the wind speed of the cold air gradually slows down and becomes soft.

[0050] Exemplarily, there are four air guide grooves 121, and each air guide groove 121 has an air guide hole 122 at its bottom. The four air guide grooves 121 are evenly distributed around the air inlet 123, so that the cold air is dispersed and diverted to four directions after entering the air inlet 123, and then flows out from the four air guide holes 122 respectively.

[0051] In order to improve the air guiding effect of the air guide groove 121, the depth of the air guide groove 121 can be gradually increased along the air guiding direction of the air guide groove 121. The air guide hole 122 is opened at the position corresponding to the maximum groove depth on the bottom of the air guide groove 121. In addition, a smooth chamfer can be set at the connection between the adjacent two side walls of the air guide groove 121. Through the above-mentioned setting method, the cold air can flow more smoothly from the notch 1211 to the air guide hole 122, and the wind speed of the cold air is gradually reduced when flowing along the air guide groove 121. On the one hand, a better soft wind effect is achieved, and on the other hand, the wind speed of different air guide holes 122 is reduced to a closer range, thereby improving the uniformity of the air outlet of the air outlet 114.

[0052] In some embodiments, the air guide groove 121 is an arc-shaped groove, so that the arc-shaped side wall of the air guide groove 121 can have a better deceleration effect on the cold wind. In addition, under the premise that the surface area of ​​the soft wind member 120 is certain, setting the air guide groove 121 as an arc-shaped groove can make it have a longer air guide path, thereby further improving the deceleration effect.

[0053] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 The fresh-keeping compartment 100 further includes an isolating member 130, which covers the side of the soft wind member 120 facing the air inlet 113, and the isolating member 130 and the soft wind member 120 enclose an air-adjusting cavity 140, and the air-guiding groove 121 is formed in the air-adjusting cavity 140; the isolating member 130 is provided with an air hole 141, and the air hole 141 and the air inlet 123 are correspondingly arranged and connected, and the air hole 141 and the air-guiding hole 122 are staggered. In actual application, after the cold air enters the air supply duct 112, it enters the air-adjusting cavity 140 through the air hole 141, and then flows into the air inlet 123 through the air-adjusting cavity 140.

[0054] For example, see Figure 4 , Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the structure of a soft wind plate provided in an embodiment of the present application. There are multiple soft wind pieces 120, and multiple soft wind pieces 120 are arranged at intervals on the same plane. Preferably, multiple soft wind pieces 120 are arranged in an array. Multiple soft wind pieces 120 can be integrally formed to form a soft wind plate 120a. Correspondingly, the isolation piece 130 can be set as an isolation plate corresponding to the shape of the soft wind plate 120a.

[0055] In some embodiments, the fresh-keeping compartment 100 further includes a magnetic field generating device, which is used to apply a magnetic field to the fresh-keeping space 111 to improve the fresh-keeping performance of the fresh-keeping space 111. Based on this, if you want to further improve the fresh-keeping performance of the magnetic field generating device, the isolation member 130 can be set as a soft magnetic sheet. In this way, the isolation member 130 is not only used to form the air adjustment cavity 140 to achieve air guidance, but also used to reflect the magnetic field generated by the magnetic field generating device to increase the magnetic field strength and uniformity in the fresh-keeping space 111, and improve the fresh-keeping effect of the fresh-keeping compartment 100.

[0056] For further information, see Figure 5 , Figure 5 An exploded view of the fresh-keeping space provided in the embodiment of the present application. The compartment body 110 includes a drawer assembly 115 and a partition assembly 116. The drawer assembly 115 forms a fresh-keeping space 111 with an opening 1151. The partition assembly 116 is disposed on a side of the drawer assembly 115 with the opening 1151 and covers the opening 1151. The air supply duct 112 is opened in the partition assembly 116, and the air outlet 114 is connected to the fresh-keeping space through the opening 1151.

[0057] It should be noted that the partition assembly 116 is used to cover the opening 1151 to close the fresh-keeping space 111, so as to facilitate the temperature control in the fresh-keeping space 111. Exemplarily, the drawer assembly 115 is slidably connected to the refrigerator's cold storage room, so as to slide in or out of the cold storage room. The partition assembly 116 is fixedly installed in the cold storage room of the refrigerator, and is arranged on the side of the drawer assembly 115 provided with the opening 1151. When the drawer assembly 115 slides in or out of the cold storage room, the partition assembly 116 covers at least a portion of the opening 1151. Among them, when the drawer assembly 115 slides to the first position in the cold storage room, the partition assembly 116 covers the entire opening 1151 to close the fresh-keeping space 111.

[0058] The partition assembly 116 includes a partition body 1161 and an air duct cover 1162. The partition body 1161 is disposed on a side of the drawer assembly 115 where the opening 1151 is disposed. The air duct cover 1162 is disposed between the partition body 1161 and the drawer assembly 115. The air duct cover 1162 is provided with an air inlet 113 and an air outlet 114, and is covered on the partition body 1161 to form an air supply duct 112. The air duct cover 1162 covers the opening 1151. The soft air component 120 is installed in the air duct cover 1162.

[0059] The partition body 1161 is, for example, a glass plate structure. The air duct cover 1162 is, for example, box-shaped and covers the surface of the partition body 1161 facing the drawer assembly 115. The inner wall of the air duct cover 1162 and the surface of the partition body 1161 are arranged to form the air supply duct 112. The material of the air duct cover 1162 can be plastic or foam.

[0060] In some embodiments, the air duct cover 1162 includes a top plate 1162a and a side plate assembly 1162b connected to the top plate 1162a. Among them, the top plate 1162a covers the opening 1151, and a plurality of micropores are evenly provided on the top plate 1162a, and the plurality of micropores form an air outlet 114, and the air inlet 113 is provided on the side plate assembly 1162b. It can be understood that by setting the air outlet 114 to a plurality of micropore structures, the uniformity of the air outlet can be further improved. Preferably, the plurality of micropores are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of air guide holes 122. The side plate assembly 1162b includes a first side plate close to the cooling air duct of the refrigerator, and illustratively, the air inlet 113 is provided on the first side plate to facilitate communication with the cooling air duct.

[0061] For example, the soft wind plate 120a composed of a plurality of soft wind members 120 corresponds to the shape of the top plate 1162a and is installed on the top plate 1162a at intervals; in addition, the height of the soft wind plate 120a relative to the top plate 1162a does not exceed the height of the air inlet 113 relative to the top plate 1162a. In this way, the soft wind plate 120a separates the air inlet 113 from the air outlet 114, and the cold wind flowing from the air inlet 113 to the air outlet 114 will all flow through the soft wind plate 120a and be dispersed, thereby maximizing the uniform wind and slow wind effects.

[0062] Preferably, the soft air plate 120a is made of foam material, so as to play a role of heat preservation at the same time, and reduce the influence of the external temperature of the fresh-keeping compartment 100 on the temperature of the fresh-keeping space 111. In order to further improve the heat preservation effect of the partition assembly 116, a heat insulating member 1163 such as a heat insulating sponge can also be provided on the inner wall of the air supply duct 112. Preferably, the heat insulating member 1163 is attached to the surface of the partition body 1161 facing the duct cover 1162.

[0063] The drawer assembly 115 includes, for example, a drawer box 1152 and a drawer body 1153. The drawer body 1153 is slidably connected to the drawer box 1152, so that the drawer body 1153 can slide into or out of the drawer box 1152. The drawer box 1152 is, for example, used to be fixed in the refrigerator compartment of a refrigerator.

[0064] The fresh-keeping compartment 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application adds a soft wind component 120 in the air supply duct 112 to disperse the cold air flowing from the air inlet 113 to the air outlet 114, thereby changing the air outlet direction and reducing the air outlet speed, thereby improving the uniformity and softness of the air outlet 114 to the fresh-keeping space 111, avoiding direct blowing of the items in the fresh-keeping space 111, and at the same time being able to improve the uniformity of the temperature of each area in the fresh-keeping space 111, thereby improving the fresh-keeping effect.

[0065] The present application also provides a refrigerator, which is exemplary, Figure 6 , Figure 6The refrigerator 10 includes the above-mentioned fresh-keeping compartment 100 , a cooling air duct 200 and a refrigerating chamber 300 .

[0066] The cooling air duct 200 is arranged on the back plate of the refrigerating chamber 300, and the fresh-keeping compartment 100 is arranged in the refrigerating chamber 300. Among them, the partition assembly 116 is fixed to the inner wall of the refrigerating chamber 300 and is located above the drawer assembly 115. The air inlet 113 is arranged toward the cooling air duct 200. The drawer assembly 115 is slidably connected to the refrigerating chamber 300 so as to slide into or out of the refrigerating chamber 300 under the action of external force.

[0067] The refrigerator 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application has a fresh-keeping compartment 100 in which a soft wind component 120 is added to the air supply duct 112 to disperse the cold air flowing from the air inlet 113 to the air outlet 114, thereby changing the air outlet direction and reducing the air outlet speed, thereby improving the uniformity and softness of the air outlet 114 to the fresh-keeping space 111, avoiding direct blowing of the items in the fresh-keeping space 111, and at the same time being able to improve the uniformity of the temperature of each area in the fresh-keeping space 111, thereby improving the fresh-keeping effect.
