Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of refrigerator accessories, in particular to a refrigerator lock and a refrigerator with the same. Background Art

[0002] From a safety perspective, locks need to be installed on the doors and cabinets of refrigerators to prevent children from opening the refrigerator doors and causing danger. In order to meet the needs of different users, refrigerators need to have a lock function, but the security level of such locks is very low, and sometimes they are only used to prevent others from opening the cabinet at will. Therefore, such refrigerators require a refrigerator lock with a simple structure. Currently, most refrigerators on the market have handle locks and lock hook structures. However, during the transportation of refrigerators, due to the size restrictions of the packing volume, in order to reduce transportation costs and packaging sizes, large handles cannot be installed on the refrigerators. Users need to install the handles themselves after receiving the refrigerators, which is troublesome, and the mold opening cost of the lock installed on the handle is relatively high. Some refrigerators also use the old lock nose structure, which is not beautiful enough. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0025] The positions mentioned in this specification are based on the positions of the refrigerator lock and the refrigerator equipped with the refrigerator lock during normal operation of the utility model, and do not limit the positions during storage and transportation. They only represent relative position relationships, not absolute position relationships.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown together, a refrigerator lock comprises a lock seat 1, a lock core 2, a lock hook 3 and a lock buckle 4, the lower part of the lock buckle 4 is bent to form a buckle hook 5; the lock core 2 is fixed on the lock seat 1, one end of the lock hook 3 is rotatably connected to the lock core 2, and the other end is hung on the buckle hook 5 at the lower part of the lock buckle 4; an upper cover 6 capable of wrapping the lock buckle 4 is installed on the outside of the lock buckle 4, and a lower cover 7 capable of wrapping the lock seat 1 is installed on the outside of the lock seat 1, and a through hole is provided on the lower cover 7 at the position of the lock core 2, the lock core 2 passes through the through hole and a keyhole 17 is provided at the end thereof. When it is necessary to open the refrigerator lock, a key is inserted into the keyhole 17, and the key is turned to drive the lock core 2 to rotate, thereby driving the lock hook 3 to rotate out from the buckle hook 5, and the method of closing the refrigerator lock is the opposite.

[0027] A fixing groove 8 is provided on the left and right sides of the lock seat 1, and a limiting plate 9 is provided at the fixing groove 8 in the lower cover 7, which is inserted into the fixing groove 8. The limiting plate 9 is tightly inserted into the limiting groove so that the lower cover 7 is fixed; a guide surface is provided on the limiting plate 9 in the moving direction of the lower cover 7, which is convenient for inserting the limiting plate 9 into the fixing groove 8; a through hole for installing the lock seat 1 is provided on the lock seat 1, which is convenient for fixing the lock seat 1 by fasteners.

[0028] The lock buckle 4 is provided with a mounting hole 10 for installing the lock buckle 4, which is convenient for fixing the lock buckle 4 with fasteners; mounting plates 11 are provided on the left and right sides of the lock buckle 4, and a buckle 12 that is connected to the back of the mounting plate 11 is provided at a corresponding position of the mounting plate 11 in the upper cover 6, thereby fixing the upper cover 6 in the front and rear directions; a claw 19 is also provided above the lock buckle 4, and a socket 18 for the claw 19 to be inserted is provided at a corresponding position of the claw 19 in the upper cover 6. After the claw 19 is inserted into the socket 18, the upper cover 6 is fixed in the up and down directions; however, in order to facilitate the subsequent removal of the upper cover 6 and adjustment of the lock buckle 4, a gap is provided in the left and right directions of the socket 18. When the upper cover 6 needs to be removed, the upper cover 6 is shaken left and right with force. By utilizing the toughness of the mounting plate 11 and the buckle 12, the buckle 12 can be bent and deformed to a certain extent, thereby causing the buckle 12 to fall off the mounting plate 11, thereby removing the upper cover 6.

[0029] Furthermore, the thickness of the upper cover 6 and the lower cover 7 are equal, and the thickness of both is no more than 1.5 mm, so that the thickness of the refrigerator lock is thinner and occupies less space; the upper part of the upper cover 6 and the lower part of the lower cover 7 are both semicircular, and the two together form a waist-shaped lock cover contour, which is more beautiful in appearance and has no exposed sharp corners, making it safer to use.

[0030] Furthermore, a hook 13 is provided on the inner wall of the upper cover 6, and there are two hooks 13, which are distributed on the left and right sides of the inner wall of the upper cover 6; a number of gaskets 14 are hung on the hook 13, and the gasket 14 is a thin sheet with a thickness of no more than 1 mm; two left and right through holes are provided on the gasket 14, and the size and center distance of the through holes are the same as those of the mounting holes 10 on the lock buckle 4, and the gasket 14 can be installed on the back of the lock buckle 4 to adjust the position of the lock buckle 4; when the lock buckle 4 is initially installed, no less than 2 gaskets 14 are installed at its bottom, and the gasket 14 hung on the hook 13 is used for backup; when the cabinet body 15 or the cabinet door 16 of the refrigerator is deformed at a later stage, resulting in the lock hook 3 being unable to enter the lock buckle 4, the upper cover 6 and the lock buckle 4 can be removed, and the position between the lock hook 3 and the lock buckle 4 can be adjusted by adjusting the number of gaskets 14 at the bottom of the lock buckle 4, so that the two are aligned for easy use.

[0031] like Figure 6 As shown, a refrigerator equipped with a refrigerator lock as described above includes a cabinet body 15, a cabinet door 16 is provided above the cabinet body 15, a lock seat 1, a lock core 2 and a lower cover 7 are installed on the cabinet body 15, a lock buckle 4 and an upper cover 6 are installed on the cabinet door 16, one end of the lock hook 3 is rotatably connected to the lock core 2, and the other end is hung on the buckle hook 5 at the bottom of the lock buckle 4, so as to lock the refrigerator.

[0032] Furthermore, the lock base 1 and the lock buckle 4 are respectively fixed to the cabinet 15 and the cabinet door 16 by fasteners. The refrigerator lock is installed on one side of the front end of the cabinet 15. A refrigerator lock can also be installed on both sides of the front end of the cabinet 15.

[0033] Of course, the above description is not a limitation of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above examples.
