[0084] Figure 4 for Figure 3 A local enlarged view of point A; Figure 5 for Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the middle folding shelf mechanism 4.

[0085] Please refer to the attached Figure 4 and attached Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the folding shelf mechanism 4 may include a first panel 41, and the first panel 41 may form a supporting surface for supporting items to be refrigerated.

[0086] In some embodiments, the folding shelf mechanism 4 may include a second panel 42, and the second panel 42 may form a supporting surface for supporting items to be refrigerated.

[0087] In some embodiments, the folding shelf mechanism 4 may include a hinge assembly 43 , which is rotatably connected between the first panel 41 and the second panel 42 . The setting of the hinge assembly 43 can achieve a foldable connection between the first panel 41 and the second panel 42 .

[0088] In some embodiments, the side of the first panel 41 away from the hinge assembly 43 can be arranged on the first side wall 302, and the side of the second panel 42 away from the hinge assembly 43 can be arranged on the second side wall 303.

[0091] Figure 6 for Figure 5 One of the cross-sectional views; Figure 7 for Figure 6 A partial enlarged view of point B;

[0092] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, in some embodiments, the first connecting member 431 may be provided with a first stop arm 433 protruding toward the top of the second connecting member 432. The first stop arm 433 can abut against the top of the second connecting member 432 to support the side of the first panel 41 away from the first side wall 302 on the second connecting member 432. One end of the first stop arm 433 is connected to the top of the first connecting member 431, and the other end of the first stop arm 433 can protrude toward the top of the second connecting member 432. When the first connecting member 431 rotates to the position where the first stop arm 433 abuts against the top of the second connecting member 432, and the first panel 41 is subjected to a downward force or other downward external force when supporting an article, one side of the first panel 41 is supported by the first side wall 302, and the other side of the first panel 41 is supported on the second connecting member 432, which can prevent the first panel 41 from rotating around the rotation axis of the first connecting member 431 and the second connecting member 432 to cause the article to fall or be damaged.

[0093] In some embodiments, the second connecting member 432 may be provided with a second stop arm 434 protruding toward the top of the first connecting member 431. The second stop arm 434 can abut against the top of the first connecting member 431 to support the side of the second panel 42 away from the second side wall 303 on the first connecting member 431. One end of the second stop arm 434 is connected to the second connecting member 432, and the other end of the second stop arm 434 can protrude toward the top of the first connecting member 431. When the first connecting member 431 rotates to the position where the first stop arm 433 abuts against the top of the second connecting member 432, and the second panel 42 is subjected to a downward force or other downward external force when supporting an article, one side of the second panel 42 is supported by the second side wall 303, and the other side of the second panel 42 is supported on the first connecting member 431, so that the second panel 42 can be prevented from rotating around the rotation axis of the first connecting member 431 and the second connecting member 432 to cause the article to fall or be damaged.

[0094] In some embodiments, the first connecting member 431 may be provided with a first stop arm 433 protruding toward the top of the second connecting member 432, and the second connecting member 432 may be provided with a second stop arm 434 protruding toward the top of the first connecting member 431. In this way, when the first panel 41 and the second panel 42 are used as a continuous plane to support items, both sides of the first panel 41 and both sides of the second panel 42 can be supported respectively, and maintain the state of supporting items.

[0095] Please refer to the attached Figure 2 and Figure 6The first panel 41 is arranged on the left side of the refrigerator, and the second panel 42 is arranged on the right side of the refrigerator. When items to be refrigerated are placed on both the first panel 41 and the second panel 42, or one of the first panel 41 and the second panel 42 is placed with items to be refrigerated, the setting of the first stop arm 433 and the second stop arm 434 can prevent the first panel 41 from moving clockwise around the rotation axis and limit the second panel 42 from moving counterclockwise around the rotation axis, so as to effectively prevent the first panel 41 and the second panel 42 from overturning the items to be refrigerated due to folding.

[0096] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, when the hinge assembly 43 is subjected to an upward external force, the rotating shafts of the first connecting member 431 and the second connecting member 432 can be driven to move upward, so that the first stop arm 433 is separated from the top of the second connecting member 432 and the second stop arm 434 is separated from the top of the first connecting member 431, and the first panel 41 and the second panel 42 are rotated toward each other and approached.

[0097] The user can manually apply an upward external force to the hinge assembly 43. At this time, since the first stop arm 433 is separated from the top of the second connecting member 432, and the second stop arm 434 is separated from the top of the first connecting member 431, the first panel 41 and the second panel 42 can move in opposite directions and approach each other. This makes it easier for the user to remove the folding shelf mechanism 4 and is not easy to scratch the inside of the refrigeration compartment.

[0098] The folding shelf mechanism 4 disclosed in the present application has a simple structure, so that the user can fold the first panel 41 and the second panel 42 to take out the items more easily and without damaging the inner side wall of the refrigeration chamber. The folding shelf mechanism 4 can also maintain a stable state when supporting items, so that the folding shelf mechanism 4 can stably support the items.

[0099] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, when the first stopping arm 433 abuts against the top of the second connecting member 432 and the second stopping arm 434 abuts against the top of the first connecting member 431 , the first panel 41 and the second panel 42 may be on the same plane.

[0100] like Figure 7 As shown, it should be noted that when the first stop arm 433 abuts against the top of the second connecting member 432, and the second stop arm 434 abuts against the top of the first connecting member 431, the angle between the first panel 41 and the second panel 42 is 180 degrees, that is, the shelf mechanism is in the unfolded state, and the first panel 41 and the second panel 42 can be kept on the same plane. In this way, the folding shelf mechanism 4 can provide a flat support surface, which can effectively maintain the balance of objects and prevent objects from sliding or tilting.

[0101] In some other embodiments, when the first stopping arm 433 abuts against the top of the second connecting member 432 and the second stopping arm 434 abuts against the top of the first connecting member 431 , the angle between the first panel 41 and the second panel 42 may be less than 180 degrees.

[0102] Figure 8 for Figure 2 A three-dimensional schematic diagram of the middle hinge assembly; Fig. 9 for Figure 2 Exploded view of the hinge assembly; Fig.10 for Figure 2 Cross-sectional view of the hinge assembly.

[0103] like Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, in some embodiments, the top of the first connecting member 431 may be provided with a first limiting groove 401. The second stop arm 434 can rotate and extend into the first limiting groove 401, and abut against the groove wall of the first limiting groove 401. Among them, the second stop arm 434 can extend into the first limiting groove 401 as the second connecting member 432 rotates and forms a state of abutment with the first limiting groove 401. In this way, the second stop arm 434 can be effectively prevented from shaking or falling off when subjected to external force, thereby improving the support reliability of the hinge assembly 43 on the second panel 42, and further enhancing the stability of the folding shelf mechanism 4 in the unfolded state.

[0104] In some embodiments, the second limit groove 402 may be provided at the top of the second connecting member 432. The first stop arm 433 can rotate and extend into the second limit groove 402, and abut against the groove wall of the second limit groove 402. The first stop arm 433 can extend into the second limit groove 402 and abut against the second limit groove 402 as the first connecting member 431 rotates. This can effectively prevent the first stop arm 433 from shaking or falling off when subjected to external force, improve the support reliability of the hinge assembly 43 on the second panel 42, and further enhance the stability of the folding shelf mechanism 4 in the unfolded state.

[0105] like Fig.10 As shown, in some embodiments, the top surface of the first connecting member 431 is recessed to form the first limiting groove 401 .

[0106] In some embodiments, the top surface of the second connecting member 432 is recessed to form the second limiting groove 402 .

[0107] like Fig. 9As shown, in some embodiments, the first stop arm 433 may include two. The two first stop arms 433 may be arranged at intervals. The arrangement of the two first stop arms 433 is conducive to the hinge assembly 43 providing a more balanced and stable support force for the side of the first panel 41 away from the first side wall 302, thereby helping to reduce the tilting or shaking phenomenon that may occur when the folding shelf mechanism 4 carries heavy objects, thereby ensuring the stability of the objects on the folding shelf mechanism 4.

[0108] In some embodiments, one of the first stopping arms 433 may be disposed at a front end of the first connecting member 431 , and the other first stopping arm 433 may be disposed at a rear end of the first connecting member 431 .

[0109] In some embodiments, the second limit groove 402 can be extended along the axis direction of the rotating shaft so that the two first stop arms 433 can respectively abut against the groove wall of the second limit groove 402. The second limit groove 402 can be extended along the axis direction of the rotating shaft to form a long strip, so that the two first stop arms 433 arranged at intervals can respectively extend into and abut against the groove wall of the second limit groove 402, which is conducive to the folding of the shelf mechanism 4 to be quickly and accurately locked, so that the first panel 41 can be stably supported on the first side wall 302 of the refrigeration chamber and the first connecting member 431 to prevent accidental sliding or loosening.

[0110] It should be noted that, in some other embodiments, the second limiting groove 402 may include two, the two second limiting grooves 402 are arranged on the second connecting member 432 at intervals, and the two second limiting grooves 402 are respectively arranged corresponding to the two first stop arms 433.

[0111] like Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the second stop arm 434 may include two. The two second stop arms 434 are arranged at intervals. The arrangement of the two second stop arms 434 is conducive to the hinge assembly 43 providing a more balanced and stable support force for the side of the second panel 42 away from the second side wall 303, and can also help the folding shelf mechanism 4 to more evenly disperse stress when carrying heavy objects, reduce the phenomenon of single-point force, and further help reduce the tilting or shaking phenomenon that may occur when the folding shelf mechanism 4 carries heavy objects, thereby ensuring the stability of the items on the folding shelf mechanism 4.

[0112] In some embodiments, one of the second stopping arms 434 may be disposed at the front end of the second connecting member 432 , and the other second stopping arm 434 may be disposed at the rear end of the second connecting member 432 .

[0113] In some embodiments, the first limiting groove 401 can be extended along the axis direction of the rotating shaft so that the two second stop arms 434 can respectively abut against the groove wall of the first limiting groove 401. The first limiting groove 401 can be extended along the axis direction of the rotating shaft to form a long strip, so that the two second stop arms 434 arranged at intervals can respectively extend into and abut against the groove wall of the first limiting groove 401, which is conducive to the folding of the shelf mechanism 4 to be quickly and accurately locked, so that the second panel 42 can be stably supported on the second side wall 303 of the refrigerating chamber and the first connecting member 431 to prevent accidental sliding or loosening.

[0114] like Fig. 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the hinge assembly 43 may include a rotating shaft 44. The rotating shaft 44 may be provided at the rotating shaft between the first connecting member 431 and the second connecting member 432, and the first connecting member 431 and the second connecting member 432 are rotatably connected via the rotating shaft 44. The rotating shaft 44 serves as a connecting hub between the first connecting member 431 and the second connecting member 432, and can realize the relative rotation between the first panel 41 and the second panel 42 of the folding shelf mechanism 4, so that the user can easily unfold or fold the shelf mechanism 4 to adapt to different usage scenarios and needs.

[0115] In some embodiments, the rotating shaft 44 may be integrally formed with the first connecting member 431. The second connecting member 432 may be provided with a rotating hole 405, and the rotating shaft 44 passes through the rotating hole 405 and is rotatably connected to the second connecting member 432.

[0116] In some embodiments, the rotating shaft 44 may be integrally formed with the second connecting member 432. The first connecting member 431 may be provided with a rotating hole 405, and the rotating shaft 44 passes through the rotating hole 405 and is rotatably connected to the first connecting member 431.

[0117] In some embodiments, the rotating shaft 44 can be provided separately. The first connecting member 431 is provided with a rotating hole 405, and the second connecting member 432 is also provided with a corresponding rotating hole 405, so that the rotating shaft 44 can pass through the rotating hole 405 of the first connecting member 431 and the rotating hole 405 of the second connecting member 432 to realize the rotation connection between the first connecting member 431 and the second connecting member 432.

[0118] like Fig.10 As shown, in some embodiments, the first connecting member 431 may be provided with a first slot 403 with an opening facing the first panel 41. The side of the first panel 41 away from the first side wall 302 may be at least partially inserted into the first slot 403, so that the connection between the first panel 41 and the first connecting member 431 is tighter and more stable.

[0119] In some embodiments, the opening of the first connecting member 431 may be formed between two opposite slot surfaces of the first slot 403. The opening of the first connecting member 431 allows the first panel 41 to pass through and enter the first slot 403.

[0120] In some embodiments, the second connector 432 may have a second slot 404 with an opening toward the second panel 42. The side of the second panel 42 away from the second side wall 303 is at least partially inserted into the second slot 404, making the connection between the second panel 42 and the second connector 432 tighter and more stable.

[0121] In some embodiments, the opening of the second connecting member 432 may be formed between two opposite slot surfaces of the second slot 404. The opening of the second connecting member 432 allows the second panel 42 to pass through and enter the second slot 404.

[0122] In some embodiments, the hinge assembly 43 may include a first reinforcing rib 435. One end of the first reinforcing rib 435 is connected to the first connector 431, and the other end of the first reinforcing rib 435 protrudes into the first slot 403. The portion of the first reinforcing rib 435 protruding into the first slot 403 can abut against the first panel 41. In this way, when the first panel 41 is used for a long time or bears heavy objects, the protruding portion of the first reinforcing rib 435 abuts against the first panel 41 to provide additional support for the first panel 41, and the connection strength between the first connector 431 and the first panel 41 can be strengthened, so that the folding layer shelf mechanism is more stable and reliable when bearing heavy objects or being impacted by external forces, which is conducive to its ability to safely carry more or heavier items.

[0123] In some embodiments, the first reinforcing rib 435 may be disposed on the second connecting member 432. The first reinforcing rib 435 may be located in the second slot 404, and the portion of the first reinforcing rib 435 protruding from the first slot 403 may abut against the second panel 42. In this way, the connection strength between the second connecting member 432 and the second panel 42 may be strengthened, so that the folding shelf mechanism 4 is more stable and reliable when subjected to heavy objects or external force impact, which is conducive to its ability to safely carry more or heavier objects.

[0124] like Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, in some embodiments, the first reinforcing rib 435 may be provided with a first inclined surface. The first inclined surface may be inclined from the connection between the first reinforcing rib 435 and the first connecting member 431 toward the inner side of the first slot 403 , and the first inclined surface may abut against the surface of the first panel 41 .

[0125] In some embodiments, the first reinforcing rib 435 may be provided in plurality. The plurality of first reinforcing ribs 435 may be relatively disposed on two opposite sides of the first slot 403 , so that the first reinforcing rib 435 may abut against two opposite panels of the first panel 41 .

[0126] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the hinge assembly 43 may include two groups. The two groups of hinge assemblies 43 may be spaced apart to form a double support structure, which is beneficial to making the folding shelf structure more stable during the unfolding or folding process and not prone to shaking or tilting.

[0127] In some embodiments, one set of hinge components 43 can be rotatably connected between the front end of the first panel 41 and the front end of the second panel 42, and another set of hinge components 43 can be rotatably connected between the rear end of the first panel 41 and the rear end of the second panel 42. In this way, the hinge components 43 can be supported at the front and rear ends of the folding shelf structure respectively. When the folding shelf mechanism 4 carries heavy objects, the hinge components 43 at the front and rear ends can share the weight together and evenly distribute the stress to the entire folding shelf structure, which is conducive to optimizing the force distribution and reducing the situation where the single point is overstressed. Moreover, the hinge components 43 are set at the front and rear ends, which makes the folding shelf mechanism 4 smoother when folding and unfolding, and improves the convenience of use.

[0128] Fig.11 for Figure 5 Sectional view 2; Fig.12 for Fig.11 A partial enlarged view of point C; Fig.13 for Figure 5 Schematic diagram of the flexible seal.

[0129] Please refer to the attached Fig.11 and Fig.12 In some embodiments, the folding shelf structure may include a flexible seal 5. The flexible seal 5 may be disposed between the first panel 41 and the second panel 42 to seal the gap between the first panel 41 and the second panel 42. On the one hand, by providing the flexible seal 5 between the first panel 41 and the second panel 42, a reinforcing effect can be achieved, making the connection between the two panels tighter and more stable, which helps to improve the structural stability of the entire shelf structure. On the other hand, the flexible seal 5 is tightly disposed between the first panel 41 and the second panel 42, thereby sealing the gap that may exist between the two panels, thereby avoiding the problem of dirt and grime easily accumulating during use due to the gap between the first panel 41 and the second panel 42.

[0130] In some embodiments, the flexible seal 5 may be located between the two hinge assemblies 43. The two hinge assemblies 43 may be located between the front end of the first panel 41 and the front end of the second panel 42, and between the rear end of the first panel 41 and the rear end of the second panel 42. In this way, the flexible seal 5 may be located between the front and rear hinge assemblies 43.

[0131] like Fig.13 As shown, in some embodiments, the flexible seal 5 may extend in a long strip shape. The flexible seal 5 is designed to be in a long strip shape, which can facilitate the flexible seal 5 to be connected along the sides of the first panel 41 and the second panel 42.

[0132] In some embodiments, the long strip of the flexible seal 5 can be extended along the axis of the shaft. By extending the flexible seal 5 along the axis of the shaft, the flexible seal 5 can be flexibly expanded and deformed with the rotation of the shaft, which is beneficial for the flexible seal 5 to always be closely attached to the first panel 41 and the second panel 42 during the folding and rotating process of the folding shelf structure, and will not loosen or fall off due to the rotation of the shaft.

[0133] like Fig.13 As shown, in some embodiments, the flexible seal 5 may include a first clamping portion 51. The first clamping portion 51 may be connected to one side of the flexible seal 5. The first clamping portion 51 is arranged to extend along the axis of the rotating shaft. The first clamping portion 51 may be clamped between the first panels 41, so that the side of the first panel 41 away from the first side wall 302 may be tightly connected to the flexible seal 5 by being clamped with the first clamping portion 51.

[0134] In some embodiments, the first clamping portion 51 may be provided with a first clamping groove 501 with an opening toward the first panel 41. The side of the first panel 41 away from the first side wall 302 is at least partially inserted into the first clamping groove 501. In this way, the first panel 41 can be easily inserted into the first clamping groove 501 during installation, which not only enables the first panel 41 to form a tight connection with the flexible sealing member 5, but also simplifies the installation process and improves the installation efficiency.

[0135] In some embodiments, the flexible seal 5 may include a second clamping portion 52. The second clamping portion 52 may be connected to the other side of the flexible seal 5. The second clamping portion 52 may be arranged to extend along the axis of the shaft, and the second clamping portion 52 may be clamped between the second panels 42, so that the side of the second panel 42 away from the second side wall 303 may be tightly connected to the flexible seal 5 by clamping with the second clamping portion 52.

[0136] In some embodiments, the second clamping portion 52 may be provided with a second clamping groove 502 with an opening toward the second panel 42. The side of the second panel 42 away from the second side wall 303 is at least partially inserted into the second clamping groove 502. In this way, the second panel 42 can be easily inserted into the second clamping groove 502 during installation, which not only enables the second panel 42 to form a tight connection with the flexible seal 5, but also simplifies the installation process and improves the installation efficiency.

[0137] like Fig.13 and Fig.14 As shown, in some embodiments, the flexible seal 5 may include a flexible connection portion 53. The first clamping portion 51 and the second clamping portion 52 may be connected to both sides of the flexible connection portion 53, respectively. By providing the flexible connection portion 53, the first panel 41 and the second panel 42 may be connected together, which is conducive to forming a continuous support plane between the first panel 41, the second panel 42 and the flexible seal 5.

[0138] In some embodiments, the flexible connection portion 53 is made of a flexible material. It should be noted that the flexible connection portion 53 is made of a flexible material with good elasticity and deformation ability, which enables the flexible connection portion 53 to adapt to the slight deformation between the first panel 41 and the second panel 42 caused by temperature changes or mechanical vibrations, thereby avoiding the formation of a gap between the first panel 41 and the second panel 42.

[0139] In some embodiments, the entire flexible seal 5 can be made of a flexible material, which is helpful to reduce the preparation and production costs of the flexible seal 5 .

[0140] In some embodiments, the entire flexible seal 5 can be made of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) material. Among them, the PVC material has good flexibility, so that the flexible seal 5 can be bent and deformed within a certain range to adapt to the folding and rotation of the folding shelf mechanism 4. On the other hand, the PVC material also has good wear resistance and aging resistance, which is conducive to maintaining the durability and reliability of the flexible seal 5.

[0141] like Fig.13 As shown, in some embodiments, two flexible connecting parts 53 may be provided. The two flexible connecting parts 53 may be arranged at a relative interval. A gap is formed between the flexible connecting parts 53, so that the flexible connecting member can better adapt to the folding and rotation of the folding shelf mechanism 4.

[0142] In some embodiments, one of the flexible connection parts 53 can be connected between the top of the first clamping part 51 and the top of the second clamping part 52. Another flexible connection part 53 can be connected between the bottom of the first clamping part 51 and the bottom of the second clamping part 52. By providing the flexible connection parts 53 at both the top and the bottom, it is conducive to forming a more stable sealing structure. At the same time, the two flexible connection parts 53 support each other, which also enhances the strength of the entire sealing member.

[0143] It should be noted that, in some other embodiments, the flexible connection portion 53 may be connected between the first clamping portion 51 and the second clamping portion 52 by using a solid flexible material.

[0144] like Fig.12 and Fig.13 As shown, in some embodiments, the snap-in strip may include a second reinforcing rib 54. One end of the second reinforcing rib 54 is connected to the snap-in strip, and the other end of the second reinforcing rib 54 protrudes into the first slot 501, and the portion of the second reinforcing rib 54 protruding into the first slot 501 can abut against the first panel 41. In this way, the connection stability between the snap-in strip and the first panel 41 can be further enhanced, so that when the snap-in strip is subjected to external force, the stress concentration can be reduced through the support and dispersion effect of the second reinforcing rib 54, thereby avoiding deformation or damage of the snap-in strip.

[0145] In some embodiments, the second reinforcing rib 54 may be made of a flexible material. The second reinforcing rib 54 made of a flexible material has good adaptability and deformation ability, and can be fine-tuned according to the shape and size of the first panel 41 to ensure a close fit with the first panel 41.

[0146] In some embodiments, the second reinforcing rib 54 may be provided on the second clamping portion 52 and located in the second clamping slot 502. The portion of the second reinforcing rib 54 that protrudes into the second clamping slot 502 may abut against the second panel 42. In this way, the connection stability between the clamping strip and the second panel 42 may be further enhanced, so that when the clamping strip is subjected to external force, the stress concentration may be reduced through the support and dispersion effect of the second reinforcing rib 54, thereby avoiding deformation or damage of the clamping strip.

[0147] In some embodiments, the second reinforcing rib 54 may be provided with a second inclined surface. The second inclined surface is inclined from the connection between the second reinforcing rib 54 and the snap-fit ​​strip toward the inner side of the first slot 501, and the second inclined surface can abut against the surface of the first panel 41. The provision of the second inclined surface enables the second reinforcing rib 54 to form a tighter fitting surface when in contact with the first panel 41. When the second reinforcing rib 54 is inserted into the first slot 501 and abuts against the first panel 41, the second inclined surface of the second reinforcing rib 54 can follow the installation process of the first panel 41 until it is completely fitted with the first panel 41, thereby improving the tightness and reliability of the connection between the first panel 41 and the first snap-fit ​​portion 51, and effectively preventing the first panel 41 from coming out of or loosening from the first slot 501.

[0148] Fig.14 for Figure 1 An exploded view of the internal folding shelf mechanism; Fig.15 for Figure 5 Sectional view 3; Fig.16 for Fig.15 A partial enlarged view of point D; Fig.17 for Fig.16 A partial enlarged view of point D;

[0149] like Fig.14 As shown, in some embodiments, the folding shelf mechanism 4 further includes a decorative strip 6. The decorative strip 6 can be connected to the side of the first panel 41 or the second panel 42, thereby playing a decorative and anti-wear role.

[0150] like Fig.16 and Fig.17 As shown, in some embodiments, the decorative strip 6 may be provided with a mounting groove 601, and the rear end of the first panel 41 may be partially inserted into the mounting groove 601, and the decorative strip 6 may abut against the first panel 41 and the side wall of the refrigerating chamber near the rear end. It should be noted that, in daily use, the rear end of the first panel 41 and the rear end side wall of the refrigerating chamber are easily collided or scratched, and the decorative strip 6 may provide an additional layer of protection for the edge of the first panel 41, and further prevent the inner wall of the refrigerating chamber from being scratched during the process of installing and removing the folding shelf mechanism 4.

[0151] In some embodiments, the decorative strips 6 include two, the rear end of the first panel 41 can be partially inserted into the mounting groove 601 of one of the decorative strips 6 , and the rear end of the second panel 42 can be partially inserted into the mounting groove 601 of the other decorative strip 6 .

[0152] In some embodiments, the decorative strip 6 may be installed on one end of the first panel 41 facing the first side wall 302 , which may reduce the risk of collision or scratching of the first panel 41 and the first side wall 302 during installation and removal.

[0153] In some embodiments, the decorative strip 6 may be installed on one end of the second panel 42 facing the second side wall 303 , which may reduce the risk of collision or scratching of the second panel 42 and the second side wall 303 during installation and removal.

[0154] The above are only specific implementations of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art who is familiar with the present technical field can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present application, which should be included in the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the scope of the present application is limited only by the attached claims.
