Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of the present application relate to refrigerator technology, and more particularly to a refrigerator. Background Art

[0002] A refrigerator is a refrigeration device that keeps the food or other items in its storage compartment at a constant low temperature. The storage compartment of the refrigerator is used to store fresh food and drinks, such as fruits, vegetables, dairy products, and cooked food. The low temperature environment can slow down the growth of bacteria, thereby extending the shelf life of food.

[0003] In the related art, although the low temperature environment can delay the corruption and deterioration of food, it cannot completely prevent the growth of microorganisms. Therefore, in existing refrigerators, a sterilization device is often added to the refrigerator storage compartment to inhibit the growth of bacteria.

[0004] However, the sterilization effect of the sterilization device of the existing refrigerator is fixed, the intelligence level is insufficient, and the sterilization effect is poor. Utility Model Content

[0006] In the first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a refrigerator, comprising a box body, wherein at least one storage cavity is defined inside the box body, and an opening is provided on one side of the box body; a door body is arranged at the opening, and one side of the door body is hinged to one side of the opening; a shelf is arranged in the storage cavity, and the shelf is used to carry food; a rib is arranged on the inner wall of the box body; a weight sensor is arranged on the rib, and the shelf is connected to the weight sensor, and the weight sensor is used to obtain the weight of the shelf and the food; a sterilization component is arranged on the side of the rib away from the weight sensor; a controller is electrically connected to both the sterilization component and the weight sensor, and the controller is configured to control the sterilization component to operate according to the weight of the food.

[0007] The refrigerator provided in the embodiment of the present application can monitor the weight of the food in the storage cavity in real time by setting a weight sensor. The controller intelligently adjusts the working parameters of the sterilization component according to the weight information obtained, so as to achieve accurate sterilization for food of different weights. This sterilization method can improve the sterilization effect and avoid the problem of poor sterilization effect caused by the preset parameters not being suitable for the actual situation. Secondly, the sterilization component is arranged on the side of the gallbladder away from the weight sensor. Compared with the traditional technology in which the sterilization device is placed on the top of the refrigerator, this method can cover the food in different positions more evenly, ensuring that each food can be effectively sterilized, avoiding the poor sterilization effect of some food. In addition, the controller can dynamically adjust the working state of the sterilization component according to the real-time acquisition of the weight of the food. On the one hand, this method can improve the sterilization effect, and can also save energy, avoid unnecessary sterilization operations, and thus extend the service life of the sterilization component and the refrigerator.

[0023] Through the above settings, accurate sterilization can be achieved, the sterilization effect can be improved, and the problem of poor sterilization effect caused by the preset parameters not being suitable for the actual situation can be avoided.

[0024] In some embodiments of the present application, when the ion sterilization module is located in the bile rib, the light emitting module and the ion sterilization module are both located at the bottom of the shelf, and the light emitting module and the ion sterilization module are spaced apart.

[0025] Through the above-mentioned setting, by spacing the light-emitting module and the ion sterilization module, mutual interference between the two can be avoided, ensuring that the sterilization light waves and sterilization ions each have a better sterilization effect, thereby achieving more efficient sterilization.

[0026] In some embodiments of the present application, the light emitting module and the weight sensor are spaced apart, and the light emitting module is located on a side of the weight sensor away from the door body.

[0027] Through the above settings, the light emitting module and the weight sensor are spaced apart to avoid mutual interference between the two, ensuring that the weight sensor can accurately measure the weight of the food.

[0058] In the related art, sterilization methods include but are not limited to light sterilization and ion sterilization. Light sterilization refers to sterilization by emitting light waves in a fixed wavelength range. Light sterilization refers to sterilization by emitting sterilizing light. Ion sterilization refers to sterilization by releasing negative ions.

[0059] However, the above sterilization methods are generally parameters pre-set by the manufacturer when the refrigerator is installed, which cannot be adjusted according to the actual situation and the level of intelligence is insufficient. When storing different types of food or storing them for different periods of time, the sterilization effect will be poor.

[0060] In addition, the sterilization device in the prior art is usually placed on the top of the refrigerator, and the sterilization effects on the food in different positions are different, which will also cause the problem of poor sterilization effect on some food.

[0061] To this end, an embodiment of the present application provides a refrigerator, including a box body, at least one storage cavity is defined inside the box body, and an opening is provided on one side of the box body; a door body is arranged at the opening, and one side of the door body is hinged to the side of the opening; a shelf is arranged in the storage cavity, and the shelf is used to carry food; a rib is arranged on the inner wall of the box body; a weight sensor is arranged on the rib, and the shelf is connected to the weight sensor, and the weight sensor is used to obtain the weight of the shelf and the food; a sterilization component is arranged on the side of the rib away from the weight sensor; a controller is electrically connected to the sterilization component and the weight sensor, and the controller is configured to control the operation of the sterilization component according to the weight of the food.

[0062] The refrigerator provided in the embodiment of the present application can monitor the weight of the food in the storage cavity in real time by setting a weight sensor. The controller intelligently adjusts the working parameters of the sterilization component according to the weight information obtained, so as to achieve accurate sterilization for food of different weights. This sterilization method can improve the sterilization effect and avoid the problem of poor sterilization effect caused by the preset parameters not being suitable for the actual situation. Secondly, the sterilization component is arranged on the side of the gallbladder away from the weight sensor. Compared with the traditional technology in which the sterilization device is placed on the top of the refrigerator, this method can cover the food in different positions more evenly, ensuring that each food can be effectively sterilized, avoiding the poor sterilization effect of some food. In addition, the controller can dynamically adjust the working state of the sterilization component according to the real-time acquisition of the weight of the food. On the one hand, this method can improve the sterilization effect, and can also save energy, avoid unnecessary sterilization operations, and thus extend the service life of the sterilization component and the refrigerator.

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0069] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0070] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a refrigerator 10 , including a body 100 , a door body 200 , a shelf 300 , a rib 400 , a weight sensor 500 , a sterilization component 600 and a controller 700 .

[0071] Reference Figure 1 Specifically, at least one storage cavity 120 is defined inside the box body 100, and the storage cavity 120 can be set as a refrigerator or a freezer. An opening 110 is set on one side of the box body 100, and a door body 200 is set at the opening 110, and one side of the door body 200 is hinged to one side of the opening 110 of the box body 100.

[0072] It should be noted that the side of the refrigerator 10 facing the user is the front side of the refrigerator 10 , and the side away from the user is the rear side of the refrigerator 10 .

[0073] The box body 100 can be configured to include a refrigerating chamber inner shell, a freezing chamber inner shell and an outer shell. The refrigerating chamber is surrounded by the refrigerating chamber, and the freezing chamber inner shell is surrounded by the freezing chamber.

[0074] Reference Figure 1 It can be understood that the bile ribs 400 are arranged on the inner wall of the box 100, that is, the bile ribs 400 can protrude from the inner wall of the box 100. It should be noted that when the box 100 is an inner liner 130, the bile ribs 400 can protrude from the inner wall of the inner liner 130.

[0075] Reference Figure 1 , the shelf 300 is arranged in the storage cavity 120. As an optional embodiment, the number of the shelf 300 can be multiple, and the multiple shelves 300 can be arranged at intervals, and two adjacent shelves 300 and the inner wall of the box body 100 jointly define a storage area. In this way, the multiple shelves 300 and the inner wall of the box body 100 can jointly define multiple storage areas.

[0076] Reference Figure 1 As an optional embodiment, the multiple storage chambers 120 are independent of each other and do not affect each other. The multiple independent storage chambers 120 can store different types of food respectively, avoiding cross contamination and odor mixing between the food, and improving the preservation effect.

[0077] It is understandable that the multiple storage cavities 120 are independent of each other and can refer to the door body 200 being in a closed state. When the door body 200 is opened, the multiple storage cavities 120 are all connected to the outside, which is convenient for users to check and take the food in the storage cavity 120.

[0078] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 , a weight sensor 500 is arranged on the bile rib 400, and the shelf 300 is connected to the weight sensor 500. The weight sensor 500 is used to obtain the weight of the shelf 300 and the food. It can be understood that when the shelf 300 does not carry any food, the weight information obtained by the weight sensor 500 includes the weight of the shelf 300 itself; when the shelf 300 carries food, the weight information obtained by the weight sensor 500 includes the weight of the food and the weight of the shelf 300 itself.

[0079] That is, the weight sensor 500 is disposed on the ribs 400 , and can obtain the weight of the food in real time, monitor the weight change of the food, and judge the freshness of the food by the weight change, thereby improving the intelligence level of the refrigerator 10 .

[0080] Reference Figure 1The sterilization component 600 is arranged on the side of the bile rib 400 away from the weight sensor 500. It should be noted that the sterilization component 600 can sterilize the food in the storage area to better preserve the food. The sterilization component 600 may include but is not limited to at least one of an ultraviolet sterilization device, a photocatalyst device, an ion sterilization device, and a pulse sterilization device.

[0081] The sterilization component 600 is arranged on the side of the rib 400 away from the weight sensor 500. Compared with the traditional technology in which the sterilization device is placed on the top of the refrigerator 10, this method can cover the food in different positions more evenly, ensuring that each food can be effectively sterilized and avoiding poor sterilization effect on some food.

[0082] Reference Fig.10 The controller 700 is electrically connected to the sterilization component 600 and the weight sensor 500 .

[0083] In some embodiments, the controller 700 controls the operation of the refrigerator 10 and responds to the user's operation through various software control programs stored on the memory. The controller 700 controls the overall operation of the refrigerator 10, for example, responding to a received user transmission or directly operating a control instruction of the refrigerator 10, and performing an operation related to an object selected by the control instruction.

[0084] In some embodiments, the controller 700 includes at least one of a central processing unit (CPU), a video processor, an audio processor, a graphics processing unit (GPU), RAM (Random Access Memory, RAM), ROM (Read-Only Memory, ROM), a first interface to an nth interface for input / output, a communication bus (Bus), etc.

[0085] The controller 700 is configured to control the sterilization component 600 to work according to the weight of the food. The controller 700 intelligently adjusts the working parameters of the sterilization component 600 according to the acquired weight information, thereby achieving accurate sterilization for food of different weights. This sterilization method can improve the sterilization effect and avoid the problem of poor sterilization effect caused by the preset parameters not being suitable for the actual situation.

[0086] In the refrigerator 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the controller 700 can dynamically adjust the working state of the sterilization component 600 according to the real-time weight of the food. This method can improve the sterilization effect, save energy, avoid unnecessary sterilization operations, and thus extend the service life of the sterilization component 600 and the refrigerator 10.

[0087] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As an optional embodiment, the sterilization component 600 includes an ion sterilization module 610, which is used to release sterilization ions into the storage chamber 120, and the ion sterilization module 610 is electrically connected to the controller 700;

[0088] The ion sterilization module 610 can release sterilization ions into the storage cavity 120 according to the instructions of the controller 700. These ions can effectively kill bacteria and other microorganisms in the storage cavity 120, thereby maintaining the freshness and hygiene of the food.

[0089] The controller 700 is further configured to control the concentration and release time of the sterilizing ions released by the ion sterilization module 610 according to the weight of the food.

[0090] It is understandable that the controller 700 intelligently adjusts the working parameters of the ion sterilization module 610, including the sterilization ion concentration and release time, according to the acquired weight information. This method can accurately sterilize food of different weights, improve the sterilization effect, and avoid the problem of poor sterilization effect due to the preset parameters not being suitable for the actual situation.

[0091] Reference Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As an optional embodiment, the gallbladder rib 400 has a receiving cavity for accommodating the ion sterilization module 610, and the gallbladder rib 400 also has a release hole 410 connected to the receiving cavity, and the release hole 410 faces the storage cavity 120;

[0092] By providing a receiving cavity in the bile rib 400, the ion sterilization module 610 can be effectively protected, and the sterilization ions can be uniformly released into the storage cavity 120 through the release hole 410, thereby achieving a more uniform sterilization effect. Not only can the ion sterilization module 610 be protected and its service life be extended, but also the sterilization ions can be uniformly released through the release hole 410 to improve the sterilization effect.

[0093] The ion sterilization module 610 is located in the accommodating cavity, and the ion sterilization module 610 is configured to release sterilizing ions toward the release hole 410. The ion sterilization module 610 works in the accommodating cavity, and releases the sterilizing ions into the storage cavity 120 in a direction through the release hole 410, thereby achieving precise sterilization. In this way, the bile rib 400 can protect the ion sterilization module 610 from the influence of the external environment, and at the same time, the sterilizing ions are released in a direction through the release hole 410, thereby achieving precise sterilization and improving the sterilization effect.

[0094] It should be noted that there may be a plurality of release holes 410 , and the plurality of release holes 410 may be arranged in an array, so that the sterilizing ions may be distributed more evenly in the storage cavity 120 .

[0095] Reference Fig. 9 In some embodiments, the rib 400 has a mounting groove 420, and the mounting groove 420 provides a fixed position. The rib 400 also includes a mounting member 430 located in the mounting groove 420. The rib 400 is used to install the mounting member 430 and the weight sensor 500, ensuring the stability and correct position of the mounting member 430 and the weight sensor 500 inside the refrigerator, and avoiding position displacement due to the movement of items in the refrigerator. The mounting member 430 enables the weight sensor 500 to move within a certain range. The mounting member 430 can provide flexibility and a buffering effect to avoid direct impact on the sensor caused by changes in the weight of items in the refrigerator.

[0096] As an optional embodiment, the number of the ribs 400 is two, and the two ribs 400 are respectively located on opposite sides of the shelf 300. By providing two ribs 400, respectively located on opposite sides of the shelf 300, the shelf 300 can be supported more stably, and more installation space is provided for installing the weight sensor 500 and the ion sterilization module 610.

[0097] Two weight sensors 500 are respectively arranged on both sides of a rib 400, which can more accurately measure the weight of the shelf 300 and the food thereon, and provide more precise weight data to the controller 700, so as to facilitate the controller 700 to make intelligent adjustments.

[0098] The shelf 300 is in the shape of a cuboid, and four weight sensors 500 are evenly arranged at four right angles of the shelf 300. By evenly arranging the four weight sensors 500 at the four right angles of the shelf 300, the weight sensors 500 can be more evenly distributed, ensuring the accuracy and stability of weight measurement.

[0099] Through the above configuration, it can be ensured that the weight sensors 500 can fully cover the four corners of the shelf 300, thereby improving the accuracy of weight monitoring. The evenly distributed weight sensors 500 can more accurately reflect the weight changes of the shelf 300 and the food thereon, and provide more reliable freshness monitoring data.

[0100] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As an optional embodiment, an air duct 140 is formed on one side of the housing 100 away from the storage cavity 120, and the air duct 140 is connected to the storage cavity 120 through a connecting hole 150. By providing the air duct 140 on the side of the housing 100 away from the storage cavity 120 and connecting the air duct 140 to the storage cavity 120 through the connecting hole 150, a circulating flow of air can be achieved, thereby more evenly distributing the sterilizing ions and improving the sterilizing effect.

[0101] The ion sterilization module 610 is disposed in the air duct 140, and can use the air flow in the air duct 140 to bring the sterilization ions into the storage cavity 120, so that the sterilization ions are evenly distributed in the storage cavity 120, thereby improving the sterilization effect and ensuring that the food is effectively sterilized.

[0102] It should be noted that the air duct 140 may be evenly distributed on the inner wall of the box 100 facing away from the outlet 110. In some embodiments, the air duct 140 may be connected to a plurality of connecting holes 150, and the plurality of connecting holes 150 may be arranged at different positions of the box 100 to release sterilizing ions to food at different positions.

[0103] For example, when the box body 100 is formed with a plurality of storage chambers 120, each storage chamber 120 is connected to at least one connecting hole 150. The embodiment of the present application is not limited to this, nor is it limited to the above example.

[0104] Reference Figure 5 As an optional implementation, the sterilization component 600 further includes a light emitting module 620 , and the light emitting module 620 is used to emit sterilization light waves covering the storage cavity 120 .

[0105] It should be noted that the light waves emitted by the light emitting module 620 can be arbitrary. For example, the light emitting module 620 can emit light waves of different wavelengths, such as blue light, ultraviolet light, etc. For another example, the light intensity of the light waves emitted by the light emitting module 620 can be arbitrarily controlled.

[0106] It is understandable that the light waves emitted by the shelf 300 can be used for food sterilization, food preservation, and lighting. Of course, the light waves emitted by the shelf 300 can be composite light waves, which can achieve the above multiple functions.

[0107] The light emitting module 620 is located on the side of the shelf 300 away from the opening 110 and between the two ribs 400, which can ensure that the sterilization light wave can cover the entire storage cavity 120, thereby achieving a more uniform sterilization effect and avoiding poor sterilization effect on some food ingredients.

[0108] The light emitting module 620 is electrically connected to the controller 700, and the controller 700 is further configured to control the light emitting module 620 to emit sterilizing light waves according to the weight of the food, that is, the controller 700 can adjust the intensity and duration of the sterilizing light waves as needed.

[0109] In this way, accurate sterilization can be achieved, the sterilization effect can be improved, and the problem of poor sterilization effect caused by the preset parameters not being suitable for the actual situation can be avoided.

[0110] Exemplarily, the controller 700 has different types of light waves corresponding to different weights. For example, when the weight sensor 500 senses that the weight of the food reaches a certain threshold, the controller 700 can control the light module 620 to emit a light wave of a matching corresponding wavelength and light intensity. It is understood that the above settings can be adjusted according to actual conditions.

[0111] Reference Figure 7 and Figure 8 As an optional implementation, when the ion sterilization module 610 is located in the bile rib 400 , the light emitting module 620 and the ion sterilization module 610 are both located at the bottom of the shelf 300 .

[0112] The ion sterilization module 610 is arranged in the bile rib 400 , which can protect the ion sterilization module 610 and extend its service life, while ensuring that the sterilization ions can be evenly released into the storage cavity 120 .

[0113] The light emitting module 620 and the ion sterilization module 610 are both arranged at the bottom of the shelf 300, so that the sterilization light waves and sterilization ions can evenly cover the entire storage cavity 120 from below, thereby improving the sterilization effect.

[0114] The light emitting module 620 and the ion sterilization module 610 are arranged at intervals, that is, the light emitting module 620 and the ion sterilization module 610 are independent of each other.

[0115] It is understandable that by spacing the light emitting module 620 and the ion sterilization module 610, mutual interference between the two can be avoided, ensuring that the sterilization light waves and sterilization ions each exert a better sterilization effect, thereby achieving more efficient sterilization.

[0116] Reference Figure 8 As an optional implementation, the light emitting module 620 and the weight sensor 500 are spaced apart.

[0117] By spacing the light emitting module 620 and the weight sensor 500, mutual interference between the two can be avoided, ensuring that the weight sensor 500 can accurately measure the weight of the food. At the same time, the light emitting module 620 can effectively emit sterilizing light waves to improve the sterilization effect.

[0118] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 7 As an optional embodiment, a humidification module 800 is provided on the side of the door body 200 facing the box body 100, and the humidification component is used to provide humidified air to the storage cavity 120 to maintain the freshness of the food and prevent drying.

[0119] Specifically, the humidification component includes a water tank, a connecting chamber, a water absorbent and a fan, wherein: the water tank can be arranged in the shell, the connecting chamber is connected to the water tank, the water absorbent is arranged in the connecting chamber, the water absorbent is used to absorb water in the water tank, the air outlet of the fan is connected to the connecting chamber, and the fan is running to blow the moisture in the water absorbent to the storage chamber in the form of water-free mist molecular clusters to form humidified air, thereby increasing the humidity in the storage chamber.

[0120] Reference Fig.10 The humidification module 800 is electrically connected to the controller 700, and the controller 700 is further configured to control the humidification module 800 to work according to the weight of the food. The controller 700 controls the working state of the humidification module 800 according to the weight information obtained from the weight sensor 500, so that the refrigerator 10 can automatically adjust the humidity according to the weight change of the food, thereby realizing intelligent management and improving the preservation effect.

[0121] That is, the weight sensor 500 can monitor the weight change of the food in real time and provide data to the controller 700. The controller 700 determines the preservation requirements of the food according to the data of the weight sensor 500, controls the working state of the humidification module 800, and provides appropriate humidity.

[0122] In this way, by intelligently adjusting the humidity, the food can be prevented from drying out, the shelf life can be extended, and the preservation effect of the food can be improved.

[0123] In a second aspect, the embodiment of the present application further provides a refrigerator 10, a cabinet 100, a door 200, a shelf 300, a rib 400, a weight sensor 500, a sterilization component 600 and a controller 700.

[0124] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 6 Specifically, the shelf 300 is disposed in the storage cavity 120, the weight sensor 500 is disposed on the bile rib 400, the shelf 300 is connected to the weight sensor 500, and the weight sensor 500 is used to obtain the weight of the shelf 300 and the food.

[0125] It is understandable that when the shelf 300 does not carry any food, the weight information obtained by the weight sensor 500 includes the weight of the shelf 300 itself; when the shelf 300 carries food, the weight information obtained by the weight sensor 500 includes the weight of the food and the weight of the shelf 300 itself.

[0126] That is, the weight sensor 500 is disposed on the ribs 400 , and can obtain the weight of the food in real time, monitor the weight change of the food, and judge the freshness of the food by the weight change, thereby improving the intelligence level of the refrigerator 10 .

[0127] The sterilization component 600 is disposed on the side of the bile rib 400 away from the weight sensor 500. It should be noted that the sterilization component 600 can sterilize the food in the storage area to better preserve the food. The sterilization component 600 may include but is not limited to at least one of an ultraviolet sterilization device, a photocatalyst device, an ion sterilization device, and a pulse sterilization device.

[0128] The sterilization component 600 is arranged on the side of the rib 400 away from the weight sensor 500. Compared with the traditional technology in which the sterilization device is placed on the top of the refrigerator 10, this method can cover the food in different positions more evenly, ensuring that each food can be effectively sterilized and avoiding poor sterilization effect on some food.

[0129] The controller 700 is electrically connected to the sterilization component 600 and the weight sensor 500 .

[0130] The controller 700 is configured to control the sterilization component 600 to work according to the weight of the food. The controller 700 intelligently adjusts the working parameters of the sterilization component 600 according to the acquired weight information, thereby achieving accurate sterilization for food of different weights. This sterilization method can improve the sterilization effect and avoid the problem of poor sterilization effect caused by the preset parameters not being suitable for the actual situation.

[0131] In the refrigerator 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the controller 700 can dynamically adjust the working state of the sterilization component 600 according to the real-time weight of the food. This method can improve the sterilization effect, save energy, avoid unnecessary sterilization operations, and thus extend the service life of the sterilization component 600 and the refrigerator 10.
