[0048] At present, the existing air-cooled freezers deliver cold air to each compartment through the air duct, and control the delivery amount of cold air through the air door. Usually, the air duct is set on one side of the freezer, which can easily cause uneven distribution of cold air in the freezer, resulting in large temperature differences in the freezer, affecting the cooling effect. In the related art, multiple air outlets are set on the air duct plate of an air duct corresponding to the refrigeration space to achieve uniform cooling of various parts of the refrigeration space. Since setting multiple air outlets on the air duct can only achieve local uniformity in the direction of the air outlet distribution, there is still a problem of uneven cooling for areas outside the width of the air duct, and the temperature adjustment is not flexible enough.
[0049] The present application divides the air ducts and sets them in different positions through air dividing ribs to supply air to the refrigeration space so that the air supply to the refrigeration space is uniform, and the supply and return air are separated, thereby improving the refrigeration effect. The refrigeration space can be flexibly cooled by controlling the air supply from different air supply ducts.
[0050] Combination Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a refrigerator 10, including multiple inner tanks 11, an air duct plate 12 and multiple air dividing ribs 13. The multiple inner tanks 11 are sequentially distributed from top to bottom to define multiple refrigeration spaces 111; the air duct plate 12 cooperates with the inner side wall of the inner tank 11 to define an air duct 121, and the air duct 121 connects the evaporating fan outlet 161 at the bottom of the refrigerator 10 with each refrigeration space 111; multiple air dividing ribs 13 are arranged in the air duct 121, and are used to divide the air duct 121 into multiple air supply ducts 1211 and at least one return air duct 1212 in the horizontal direction; wherein the multiple air supply ducts 1211 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the return air duct 1212.
[0051] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, Figure 1The air duct plate 12 is set to be transparent, and it can be seen that an air duct 121 is formed between the air duct plate 12 and the rear side wall of the inner liner 11. The air duct 121 covers the refrigeration space 111 of the refrigerator 10 from bottom to top, and is connected to the refrigeration space 111 through the air inlet and the return air port 123. The air dividing ribs 13 are set between the air duct plate 12 and the rear side wall of the inner liner 11. The air dividing ribs 13 are integrated with the inner liner 11, and protrude inward from the inner wall of the inner liner 11 until they abut against the air duct plate 12 to prevent the air paths on both sides of the air dividing ribs 13 from mixing. The air dividing ribs 13 divide the air duct 121 into a return air duct 1212 in the middle and a supply air duct 1211 on both sides of the return air duct 1212 in the left and right directions. The evaporator bin 17 and the evaporating fan 16 are both arranged below the inner tank 11, the lower end of the air duct 121 is connected to the evaporator bin 17, and the evaporating fan air outlet 161 corresponds to the air inlet of the air duct 121, and the cold energy of the evaporator 171 is sent upward from the air duct inlet 1213 into the air duct 121, and is transported to each refrigeration space 111 through the air supply port. Among them, the air supply duct 1211 is arranged on both sides of the return air duct 1212, and the air supply duct 1211 is provided with a plurality of first air supply ports 122 from top to bottom, so that the cold energy can be evenly transported to the refrigeration space 111 in the up and down directions and the left and right directions, so as to realize the uniform refrigeration of the refrigeration space 111. At the same time, controlling the air intake volume of each air duct 121 can control the cold energy input of the refrigeration space 111, so that the refrigeration temperature can be flexibly adjusted.
[0052] Optionally, the plurality of air dividing ribs 13 include a first air dividing rib 131 and a second air dividing rib 132. The first air dividing rib 131 is disposed on the left side of the return air duct 1212, and the second air dividing rib 132 is disposed on the right side of the return air duct 1212; the lower end of the first air dividing rib 131 and the lower end of the second air dividing rib 132 intersect at the evaporator fan air outlet 161, so as to guide the wind of the evaporator fan 16 into the air supply duct 1211 on both sides of the return air duct 1212.
[0053] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the air dividing ribs 13 are arranged in the air duct 121 to separate the air duct 121. The first air dividing ribs 131 and the second air dividing ribs 132 intersect at the air duct inlet 1213, so that the left air path at the air duct inlet 1213 flows into the left air supply duct 1211 along the first air dividing ribs 131, and the right air path flows into the right air supply duct 1211 along the second air dividing ribs 132, so that the cooling capacity blown out by the evaporating fan 16 is divided into two air paths at the air duct inlet 1213, and flows through the air supply ducts 1211 on the left and right sides respectively. So that the refrigeration space 111 is cooled evenly in the left and right directions.
[0054] In some embodiments, the air dividing ribs 13 further include a third air dividing rib 13 and a fourth air dividing rib 13. The third air dividing rib 13 and the fourth air dividing rib 13 are respectively arranged on both sides of the first air dividing rib 131 and the second air dividing rib 132 to further separate the left air supply duct 1211 and the right air supply duct 121, so that the number of the left air supply duct 1211 is two and the number of the right air supply duct 1211 is two, so as to improve the refrigeration uniformity in the refrigeration space 111.
[0055] In some embodiments, there are multiple air dividing ribs 13, wherein the first air dividing rib 131 and the second air dividing rib 132 define a return air duct 1212, and the remaining multiple air dividing ribs 13 are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the return air duct 1212 to divide it into multiple supply air ducts 1211, so as to improve the cooling uniformity of the refrigeration space 111.
[0056] Optionally, the air duct plate 12 includes a plurality of first air supply ports 122 and a plurality of air return ports 123. The plurality of first air supply ports 122 correspond to the air duct plates 12 opened in the air supply ports 1211 of the refrigeration spaces 111; the plurality of air return ports 123 correspond to the air duct plates 12 opened in the air return ports 1212 of the refrigeration spaces 111 and are located below the first air supply ports 122.
[0057] like Figure 2 As shown, the air supply ports are arranged on both sides of the return air port 123 , and the height of the air supply ports is higher than the return air port 123 , so that the cooling energy moves from top to bottom to the return air port 123 .
[0058] In some embodiments, the first air supply outlets 122 are symmetrically distributed on the air duct plate 12 of the left air supply duct 1211 and the air duct plate 12 of the right air supply duct 1211, and there are multiple first air supply outlets 122, which are distributed in sequence from top to bottom.
[0059] Optionally, the refrigerator 10 further includes a plurality of dampers 14. The plurality of dampers 14 are arranged in the air supply duct 1211 and the air return duct 1212 corresponding to the connection between adjacent refrigeration spaces 111; the dampers 14 can be controlled to open to connect adjacent refrigeration spaces 111, or controlled to close to isolate adjacent spaces.
[0060] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, each air supply duct 1211 and each return air duct 1212 are provided with a damper 14 corresponding to the adjacent refrigeration space 111, and the cold air is blown into the air duct 121 from the duct inlet 1213 by the evaporating fan 16 at the lower end, and continuously sent upward through the dampers 14 in each air supply duct 1211 to enter the upper air supply duct 1211, and then sent into the corresponding refrigeration space 111 through the first air supply port 122. The cold air flows from top to bottom in the refrigeration space 111 and fills the refrigeration space 111, and then enters the return air duct 1212 through the return air port 123 at the lower part of the refrigeration space 111. The air after heat exchange enters the return air duct 1212 and then flows downward through the damper 14 in the return air duct 1212 to enter the lower return air duct 1212, and finally flows back to the evaporator bin 17, and is cooled again by the evaporating fan 16, and then is sent into the air supply duct 1211 again for circulation. The damper 14 can be controlled to be fully opened or fully closed, or partially opened, so as to control the flow of cold air and thus control the refrigeration temperature.
[0061] In some embodiments, the damper 14 is also provided at the first air supply port 122 and the return air port 123. The damper 14 at the first air supply port 122 can control the air volume of the refrigeration space 111 to control the refrigeration temperature and refrigeration speed. The damper 14 at the return air port 123 cooperates with the damper 14 at the air inlet to control the refrigeration rate.
[0062] Optionally, the refrigerator 10 further includes an air guide fence 15 . The air guide fence 15 defines an air guide channel 153 ; the air guide fence 15 includes an oppositely arranged fence entrance 151 and a fence exit 152 ; the fence entrance 151 is buckled at the evaporator fan outlet 161 ; the fence exit 152 corresponds to the air duct entrance 1213 .
[0063] like Figure 4 As shown, the inner tank 11 is provided with an evaporator fan outlet 161 corresponding to the evaporator fan 16, and the evaporator fan 16 blows out the cold energy generated by the evaporator 171 through the evaporator fan outlet 161. The wind guide fence 15 is surrounded by fence panels on all sides to form an annular wind guide channel 153 including a fence inlet 151 and a fence outlet 152 that are arranged oppositely. The fence inlet 151 is adapted and fixedly connected to the evaporator fan outlet 161, and the fence outlet 152 corresponds to the air duct inlet 1213, so as to guide the cold energy blown out by the evaporator fan 16 into the air duct 121.
[0064] In some embodiments, the periphery of the fence entrance 151 of the air guide fence 15 is bent outward to form a fixed edge, and the fixed edge is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the inner tank 11 at the evaporator fan outlet 161 through a fastener.
[0065] Optionally, the wind guide fence 15 further includes an air dividing plate 154. The air dividing plate 154 is arranged in the wind guide fence 15 corresponding to the lower end of the air dividing rib 13; the air dividing plate 154 divides the wind guide channel 153 into a first wind guide channel 1531 and a second wind guide channel 1532; the first wind guide channel 1531 corresponds to the air supply channel 1211 on the left side of the return air channel 1212; the second wind guide channel 1532 corresponds to the air supply channel 1211 on the right side of the return air channel 1212.
[0066] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, since the air supply duct 1211 includes the left air supply duct 1211 and the right air supply duct 1211, the air dividing plate 154 is set in the middle position of the air guide channel 153, dividing the air guide channel 153 into a first air guide channel 1531 on the left and a second air guide channel 1532 on the right, so that the cold air blown out by the evaporating fan 16 is automatically divided into two paths after passing through the air guide channel 153, one path flows into the left air supply duct 1211 from the left air guide channel 153, and the other path flows into the right air supply duct 1211 from the right air guide channel 153.
[0067] In some embodiments, the air distribution plate 154 is integrally provided with the air guide fence 15, or the air distribution plate 154 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the air guide fence 15 by fasteners.
[0068] Optionally, the air distribution plate 154 includes a first air plate 1541 and a second air plate 1542. The second air plate 1542 is located on the right side of the first air plate 1541; the lower end of the first air plate 1541 intersects with the lower end of the second air plate 1542, and the upper end of the first air plate 1541 and the upper end of the second air plate 1542 are connected to the first air distribution rib 131 and the second air distribution rib 132 respectively.
[0069] like Figure 5 As shown, the lower ends of the first air plate 1541 and the second air plate 1542 intersect in the air guide channel 153, the upper end of the first air plate 1541 is inclined toward the left air supply channel 1211, and the upper end of the second air plate 1542 is inclined toward the right air supply channel 1211, so as to guide the air path in the air guide channel 153 to the left air supply channel 1211 and the right air supply channel 1211 respectively. Among them, the upper end of the first air plate 1541 is connected with the first air dividing rib 131, so that the left air path can smoothly enter the left air supply channel 1211, and will not flow out from the gap between the air dividing plate 154 and the air dividing rib 13. The upper end of the second air plate 1542 is connected with the second air dividing rib 132, so that the right air path can smoothly enter the right air supply channel 1211, and will not flow out from the gap between the air dividing plate 154 and the air dividing rib 13.
[0070] In some embodiments, the number of air distribution plates 154 corresponds to the air distribution ribs 13. In the case where the air distribution ribs 13 include multiple air distribution ribs, the air distribution plates 154 correspond to the air distribution ribs 13 one by one. The first air distribution plate 154 and the second air distribution plate 154 correspond to the first air distribution rib 131 and the second air distribution rib 132. The remaining multiple air distribution plates 154 are sequentially arranged on one side of the first air distribution plate 154 and the second air distribution plate 154, and the multiple air distribution plates 154 arranged on one side of the first air distribution plate 154 are parallel to the first air distribution plate 154 to divide the air guide channel 153 on one side of the first air distribution plate 154 into multiple air guide channels 153 in parallel; the multiple air distribution plates 154 arranged on one side of the second air distribution plate 154 are parallel to the second air distribution plate 154 to divide the air guide channel 153 on one side of the second air distribution plate 154 into multiple air guide channels 153 in parallel. Each air guide channel 153 corresponds to an air supply channel 1211 , so as to accurately and evenly deliver the wind in the air guide channel 121 to the corresponding air supply channel 1211 .
[0071] Optionally, a second air supply port 124 is provided on the upper portion of the air duct plate 12 of the return air duct 1212 , and when the damper 14 in the return air duct 1212 is opened, the air in the return air duct 1212 of the refrigeration space 111 can enter the adjacent refrigeration space 111 below through the second air supply port 124 .
[0072] like Figure 2 As shown, the position of the second air supply port 124 is higher than that of the first air supply port 122, and the air in the return air duct 1212 flows into the return air duct 1212 of the refrigeration space 111 below through the damper 14 in the return air duct 1212. The second air supply port 124 is opened on the upper part of the return air plate of the refrigeration space 111, so that the air in the return air duct 1212 flows into the lower return air duct 1212 through the damper 14 in the return air duct 1212 and can enter the refrigeration space 111 below through the second air supply port 124, and then flows downward in sequence and flows back to the evaporator bin 17 through the return air port 123 in the refrigeration space 111 at the lower end. The effect of flexibly adjusting the temperature of the refrigeration space 111 is achieved.
[0073] In some embodiments, the second air supply port 124 is provided with an air door 14 to control the air volume of the air in the return air duct 1212 entering the refrigeration space 111 .
[0074] Optionally, the return air port 123 of the bottom refrigeration space 111 is connected to the evaporator bin 17 .
[0075] like Figure 2 As shown, below the bottom refrigeration space 111 is the evaporator bin 17, and a return air port 123 connected to the evaporator bin 17 is opened at the bottom of the refrigeration space 111. The air in the return air duct 1212 can enter the bottom refrigeration space 111 and then flow back to the evaporator bin 17 through the bottom return air port 123.
[0076] Optionally, the refrigerator 10 further includes a circulation fan 18 . The circulation fan 18 is disposed at the upper portion of the refrigeration space 111 to promote circulation in the refrigeration space 111 .
[0077] like Figure 1 As shown, the circulation fan 18 is arranged in the upper return air duct 1212 of one or more refrigeration spaces 111. The air duct plate 12 is provided with a circulation air outlet corresponding to the circulation fan 18. When the dampers 14 are all closed, the circulation fan 18 can be started to realize the circulation in the refrigeration space 111.
[0078] In some embodiments, the circulating fan 18 is connected to the outside air. When the damper 14 in the return air duct 1212 is closed, the cold air enters the refrigeration space 111 from the first air supply port 122 in the supply air duct 1211. When the circulating fan 18 is turned on, the air after heat exchange can be discharged out of the refrigeration space 111 to achieve rapid cooling of the refrigeration space 111.
