[0027] The implementation modes of the present utility model are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the utility model discloses a vehicle refrigerator assembly which is convenient for cabinet vibration isolation, comprising a base body 1 and a cabinet body 2 separated from the base body 1, the base body 1 is provided with a compressor 3 and a condenser 5, the cabinet body 2 is provided with an inner tank 4, and the inner tank 4 is connected to an evaporator 41; the compressor 3 and the condenser 5 are separated from the cabinet body 2, and the compressor 3, the condenser 5 and the evaporator 41 are connected by a hose, the base body 1 is provided with a first mounting portion 11, and the cabinet body 2 is provided with a second mounting portion 21.

[0029] The seat body 1 is separated from the box body 2, wherein the box body 2 is provided with an inner liner 4 and an evaporator 41, and the inner liner 4 is used to store food, beverages and other items, and the evaporator 41 is used to cause the refrigerant to evaporate, thereby achieving the purpose of cooling. The seat body 1 carries a compressor 3, and the compressor 3 provides the power required for the refrigeration cycle. The vehicle refrigerator assembly is also provided with a condenser 5, which releases the heat absorbed by the refrigerant during the evaporation process, and completes the refrigeration cycle together with the evaporator 41 and the compressor. The compressor 3, the condenser 5 and the evaporator 41 are connected by a hose, eliminating the need for a rigid connection between the separated seat body 1 and the box body 2 due to the refrigeration cycle. The first mounting portion 11 and the second mounting portion 21 are used to fix the seat body 1 and the box body 2 on different mounting seats of the vehicle, respectively, so that the box body 2 can vibrate independently of the seat body 1.

[0030] By separating the seat 1 from the box 2, and installing the two on different mounting seats through the first mounting portion 11 and the second mounting portion 21, and connecting the refrigerant circulation through a hose, the vibration generated by the operation of the compressor 3 is isolated from being directly transmitted to the box 2, so that the box 2 can vibrate independently of the seat 1, reduce the impact of vibration on the components in the box 2, and increase the service life of the internal components of the box 2. At the same time, by arranging the compressor 3 on the seat 1 separated from the box 2, necessary maintenance or repair can be performed without disassembling the box 2, reducing the complexity and time cost of maintenance work, and improving maintenance efficiency.

[0031] The box body 2 or the seat body 1 is detachably connected with a limiting structure 6 capable of locking both the box body 2 and the seat body 1 or limiting the maximum distance between the box body 2 and the seat body 1 .

[0032] A limiting structure 6 is detachably connected to the box body 2 or the base body 1 and is capable of locking both the box body 2 and the base body 1 or limiting the maximum distance between the box body 2 and the base body 1. The limiting structure 6 can limit the distance between the box body 2 and the base body 1 from being too far during transportation, thereby causing excessive stretching, twisting or squeezing of the pipes and cables between the box body 2 and the base body 1, thereby causing leakage, damage and other problems.

[0033] The box body 2 is provided with an installation opening 22 , and the limiting structure 6 includes a baffle 61 that can abut against the inner wall of the box body 2 . The baffle 61 is provided with a fixing portion 62 that extends out of the installation opening 22 and is fixedly connected to the base body 1 .

[0034] By providing a baffle 61 capable of abutting against the inner wall of the box body 2, and a fixing portion 62 extending out of the mounting opening 22 and fixedly connected to the base body 1, a simple structure is used to limit the maximum distance between the box body 2 and the base body 1, thereby preventing problems such as excessive stretching, twisting or squeezing of pipes and cables due to the distance between the box body 2 and the base body 1 being too far during transportation.

[0035] The seat body 1 includes a bottom plate 12 and a top plate 13 arranged on the top of the bottom plate 12 . The height of the bottom plate 12 is higher than the bottom of the box body 2 and lower than the top of the box body 2 . The compressor 3 is arranged on the bottom plate 12 .

[0036] The bottom plate 12 is the basic supporting structure of the seat 1. The bottom plate 12 is higher than the bottom of the box 2 and lower than the top of the box 2, so that the pipes or cables of other components led from the compressor 3 on the bottom plate 12 can be led into the box 2 in a shorter and more direct path, and unnecessary bends are reduced. Shortening the pipe also helps to reduce the heat exchange loss of the refrigerant during the transmission process, speed up the refrigeration cycle, and improve the refrigeration efficiency.

[0037] A controller 7 is connected to one side of the box body 2 close to the base body 1 . The controller 7 is provided with a wiring port 71 . The height of the wiring port 71 is higher than the top plate 13 . The top plate 13 is provided with a wire slot 14 for the wires below the top plate 13 to pass through.

[0038] By making the height of the wiring port 71 higher than the top plate 13 and providing a wire slot 14 on the top plate 13 for the cables below the top plate 13 to pass through, the wiring port 71 can conveniently integrate the cables from the devices on the top plate 13 and the bottom plate 12, thereby reducing the space occupied by reasonable cable management.

[0039] A compressor controller 31 is disposed on the bottom plate 12 and on one side of the compressor 3 .

[0040] By disposing the compressor controller 31 on the bottom plate 12 and at one side of the compressor 3, the layout of the electrical circuits is simplified.

[0041] The box body 2 includes a box body 23 and a box door 24 arranged on the side of the box body 2 away from the base body 1. A storage box 81 is arranged in the inner liner 4. The box door 24 is fixedly connected to the storage box 81. A slide rail assembly 82 is arranged between the inner liner 4 and the storage box 81 for the storage box 81 to extend out of the box body 23 in a direction away from the base body 1.

[0042] The storage box 81 can slide along the slide rail assembly 82, which is convenient for taking and placing items, increasing flexibility and convenience during use. The storage box 81 extends out of the box body 23 in a direction away from the base body 1, which can avoid collision with components on the base body 1, or the vibration of the base body 1 is transmitted to the storage box 81 extending out of the box body 23, thereby reducing the risk of breakage or damage of fragile items stored in the storage box 81 due to vibration.

[0043] The condenser 5 is disposed on a side of the base 1 away from the housing 2 . The condenser 5 includes a tube bundle assembly 51 and a condensing fan 52 . The condensing fan 52 is disposed between the housing 2 and the tube bundle assembly 51 .

[0044] By arranging the condenser 5 on the side of the base 1 away from the housing 2, the effect of the heat generated by the condenser 5 on the housing 2 can be reduced. By arranging the condensing fan 52 between the housing 2 and the tube bundle assembly 51, the heat generated during the condensation process is dissipated in a direction away from the housing 2 by the condensing fan 52, thereby further reducing the effect of the heat generated by the condenser 5 on the housing 2.

[0045] The first mounting portion 11 is disposed at the lower portion of the seat body 1 , and the second mounting portion 21 is disposed at the lower portion of the box body 2 .

[0046] The first mounting portion 11 and the second mounting portion 21 are respectively arranged at the lower portion of the base body 1 and the box body 2, so that the gravity effect can be better utilized to enhance the stability of the vehicle refrigerator assembly on the vehicle.

[0047] The first mounting portion 11 includes four first mounting columns 111 disposed along a vertical direction, and the second mounting portion 21 includes four second mounting columns 211 disposed along a vertical direction.

[0048] The first mounting portion 11 is formed by four first mounting columns 111 arranged in the vertical direction, and the second mounting portion 21 is formed by four second mounting columns 211 arranged in the vertical direction, which facilitates installation and improves installation stability.

[0049] The application method of the vehicle refrigerator assembly that facilitates box vibration isolation is as follows:

[0050] Install the inner tank 4 and the evaporator 41 in the box 2, and install the condenser 5 and the compressor 3 on the base 1 to form a refrigerator assembly; then install a limiting structure 6 on the box 2 or the base 1 that can lock both the box 2 and the base 1 or limit the maximum distance between the box 2 and the base 1, and then transport the refrigerator assembly to the shell factory or the automobile factory. When transported to the automobile factory, the automobile factory releases the lock of the box 2 and the base 1 by the limiting structure 6 or releases the maximum distance limit between the box 2 and the base 1 by the limiting structure 6, and then installs the first mounting part 11 on the first mounting seat of the car, and installs the second mounting part 21 on the second mounting seat of the car, and finally covers the refrigerator assembly with an outer shell.

[0051] In the embodiment, the manufacturer first assembles the box body 2 and the base body 1, and then locks the box body 2 and the base body 1 or limits the maximum distance between the box body 2 and the base body 1 through the limiting structure 6 to prevent excessive stretching, twisting or squeezing of the pipes and cables between the box body 2 and the base body 1 during transportation. When the refrigerator assembly is transported to the automobile factory for assembly, the locking of the box body 2 and the base body 1 by the limiting structure 6 is released, or the maximum distance limit between the box body 2 and the base body 1 by the limiting structure 6 is released. Then, the first mounting part 11 is installed on the first mounting seat of the automobile, and the second mounting part 21 is installed on the second mounting seat of the automobile. Finally, the outer shell is installed on the outside of the refrigerator assembly, thereby completing the application of the vehicle refrigerator assembly.

[0052] The outer shell of the refrigerator assembly is a shell that is sleeved on the outside of the box body 2 and the base body 1, that is, the box body 2 and the base body 1 are both in the outer shell. The outer shell is not rigidly connected to the box body 2 and the base body 1 of the refrigerator assembly to prevent the vibration of the base body 1 from being transmitted to the box body 2.

[0053] Some automobile factories do not have a production line for the casing of refrigerator components, so the refrigerator components need to be sent to the casing factory to complete the casing first and then sent to the assembly site of the automobile factory. After the casing factory releases the locking of the cabinet 2 and the base 1 by the limiting structure 6 or releases the maximum distance limit between the cabinet 2 and the base 1 by the limiting structure 6, the outer shell is put on the refrigerator component and then sent to the automobile factory. The setting of the outer shell can limit the maximum distance between the cabinet 2 and the base 1, and it is relatively cumbersome to release the limiting structure 6 between the cabinet 2 and the base 1 for the refrigerator component after the casing is covered. Therefore, after the casing factory completes the casing and sends it to the automobile factory, it is not a necessary step to reinstall the limiting structure 6 that can lock the cabinet 2 and the base 1 or limit the maximum distance between the cabinet 2 and the base 1 on the cabinet 2 or the base 1.
