However, the storage drawer is easily scratched or damaged when deicing with a scraper or other external object. Utility Model Content
[0003] The embodiment of the present application provides a refrigerator that can solve the technical problem in the related art that storage drawers are easily scratched or damaged when de-icing with foreign objects such as scrapers.
[0004] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a refrigerator, comprising:
[0005] A box body having a refrigeration compartment;
[0006] A storage drawer is slidably disposed in the refrigeration room; the storage drawer is configured with a storage space for storing articles, a receiving groove is disposed on the inner side of the storage drawer, and the storage drawer is provided with a through hole penetrating to the storage space;
[0007] The deicing component comprises an operating part and a knocking part; the operating part is inserted into the through hole, and a part of the operating part located in the storage space is connected to the knocking part;
[0008] Wherein, the de-icing component has a non-working state and a working state; when the de-icing component is in the non-working state, the knocking part is accommodated in the receiving groove; when the de-icing component is in the working state, the operating part is actuated and drives the knocking part, so that at least part of the knocking part protrudes from the receiving groove to knock the ice layer condensed on the inner side of the storage drawer.
[0009] In the refrigerator of the embodiment of the present application, when the de-icing component is in a non-working state, the knocking part can be accommodated in the receiving groove to prevent the de-icing component from occupying the storage compartment as much as possible, which is conducive to ensuring the storage capacity of the storage drawer. When the de-icing component is in a working state, the knocking part can be driven by the operating part to protrude from the receiving groove, so that the knocking part can knock the ice layer condensed on the inner side of the storage drawer, so that the knocking force applied by the knocking part can act on the ice layer as much as possible, thereby avoiding the knocking force from acting on the inner surface of the storage drawer as much as possible, which is conducive to ensuring the ice crushing effect and preventing the storage drawer from being scratched or damaged.
[0010] In some embodiments of the present application, the refrigeration compartment has a take-in and take-out opening, which is located on the front side of the box body; the refrigeration compartment has a rear side wall opposite to the take-in and take-out opening, and the direction in which the rear side wall points to the take-in and take-out opening is a first direction; the storage drawer is slidably connected to the box body along the first direction, the storage drawer is constructed with the storage space with an open top, the bottom side of the storage drawer is provided with the accommodating groove, and the accommodating groove extends along the first direction; the through hole penetrates the front side of the storage drawer in the first direction.
[0011] In this way, by setting the accommodating groove on the bottom side of the storage drawer and passing the through hole through the front side of the storage drawer, the operating part can be extended through the front side of the storage drawer for user operation, so that the operating part is directly facing the user, thereby improving the convenience of the user when operating the operating part.
[0012] In some embodiments of the present application, the through hole is a cylindrical through hole; the operating part is a cylindrical structure, the first end of the cylindrical structure is inserted into the cylindrical through hole, and can rotate in the cylindrical through hole; the part of the cylindrical structure located in the storage space is connected to the knocking part.
[0013] With such a configuration, when deicing is performed through the deicing rod, the user can manually rotate the operating part. Since the operating part is a cylindrical structure and the through hole is a cylindrical through hole, the operating part can rotate in the through hole. The rotating operating part can drive the knocking part to protrude from the receiving groove to knock the ice layer condensed on the inner side of the storage drawer. By setting the through hole as a cylindrical through hole and setting the operating part as a cylindrical structure, the operating part can be rotated in the through hole during the deicing process, so as to minimize the space required for the operating part to operate, which is conducive to improving the space utilization rate of the storage drawer.

[0017] Such an arrangement can make the shape of the receiving groove match the shape of the deicing element, so as to reduce the area of the receiving groove in the horizontal direction as much as possible, which is beneficial to provide a larger support area for the items in the storage drawer.
[0018] In some embodiments of the present application, the inner surface of the operation accommodating portion is an arc surface, and the arc surface is in contact with the cylindrical structure.
[0019] With such arrangement, when the operating portion is a cylindrical structure, when the user rotates the operating portion, the operating portion can rotate within the arc surface, and the arc surface can provide support for the cylindrical structure, thereby improving the stability of the operating portion during rotation.
[0020] In some embodiments of the present application, the radius of the arc surface, the radius of the cylindrical through hole, and the radius of the supporting recess are equal.
[0021] In this arrangement, since the cylindrical structure is in contact with the arc surface, and the first end of the cylindrical structure is inserted in the cylindrical through hole, and the second end of the cylindrical structure is inserted in the supporting recessed portion, the radius of the cylindrical structure can be made equal everywhere, and there is no need to make a diameter change setting for the cylindrical structure, thereby reducing the processing difficulty of the cylindrical structure.

[0076] refer to Figure 1 The refrigerator of the embodiment of the present application may include a box body 100, and the box body 100 may be configured with a refrigeration compartment 110. The refrigeration compartment 110 may have an access opening, and a user may place items into the refrigeration compartment 110 through the access opening, or take items out of the refrigeration compartment 110 through the access opening. The refrigerator may also include a door body 200, and the door body 200 may be rotatably connected to the box body 100 to open or close the refrigeration compartment 110. The refrigerator may also be provided with a refrigeration device, which may be arranged in the box body 100 to provide coldness to the refrigeration compartment 110.
[0077] The box body 100 may include a box liner and a box shell. The box liner may be configured with a refrigeration compartment 110. The box shell may be connected to the outside of the box liner to form the appearance of the refrigerator. The box body 100 may also include a box insulation layer, which may be arranged between the box liner and the box shell. The box insulation layer can keep the refrigeration compartment 110 warm, so as to minimize the heat exchange between the refrigeration compartment 110 and the outside of the refrigerator, which is conducive to ensuring the refrigeration effect of the refrigerator.
[0078] For example, Figure 1 As shown, the box body 100 may include a box front wall 120 located at the front side. The access opening may be located at the front side of the box body 100, for example, the access opening may be formed on the box front wall 120. Exemplarily, the box front wall 120 may be a box shell front wall located at the front side of the refrigerator in the box shell. Alternatively, the box front wall 120 may include a box shell front wall located at the front side of the refrigerator in the box shell, and a box liner front wall located at the front side of the refrigerator in the box liner, and the box liner front wall may be connected to the box shell front wall.
[0079] The box body 100 may further include a box rear wall 130 located at the rear side of the refrigerator. The box rear wall 130 may be arranged opposite to the box front wall 120. Exemplarily, the box rear wall 130 may be a side wall located at the rear side of the refrigerator in the box housing.
[0080] The box body 100 may further include two box side walls 140 located on the left and right sides of the refrigerator, respectively. The two box side walls 140 may be arranged opposite to each other, and each box side wall 140 may be connected to the box front wall 120 and the box rear wall 130. Exemplarily, the two box side walls 140 may be box shell side walls located on the left and right sides of the refrigerator, respectively.
[0081] The box body 100 may further include a box top wall 150 located at the top side of the refrigerator. The box top wall 150 may be connected to the box rear wall 130, the box front wall 120 and the two box side walls 140. Exemplarily, the box top wall 150 may be a box shell top wall located at the top side of the refrigerator in the box shell.
[0082] The box body 100 may further include a box bottom wall 160 located at the bottom side of the refrigerator. The box bottom wall 160 may be arranged opposite to the box top wall 150. The box bottom wall 160 may be connected to the box rear wall 130, the box front wall 120 and the two box side walls 140. Exemplarily, the box bottom wall 160 may be a box shell bottom wall located at the bottom side of the refrigerator in the box shell.
[0083] The number of the refrigeration compartment 110 may be one or more. Figure 1 As shown, there can be two refrigeration compartments 110. One of the refrigeration compartments 110 can be located at the upper part of the cabinet 100. The other refrigeration compartment 110 can be located at the lower part of the cabinet 100. Exemplarily, one refrigeration compartment 110 located at the upper part of the cabinet 100 can be set as a refrigerator. The two refrigeration compartments 110 located at the lower part of the cabinet 100 can be set as freezer compartments.
[0084] It is understandable that the number of the refrigeration compartment 110 may be one, three, or more than three, and the refrigeration compartment 110 may be set as a refrigerator or a freezer. In some possible implementations, the refrigeration compartment 110 may also be set as a variable temperature chamber with internal temperature changes, which will not be described in detail in the present embodiment.
[0085] The door body 200 can be rotatably connected to the cabinet body 100 to close or open the corresponding refrigeration compartment 110. Figure 1 As shown, each refrigeration compartment 110 may be provided with a corresponding door body 200. Each refrigeration compartment 110 may also be provided with two door bodies 200 or more than two door bodies 200, which will not be described in detail in the embodiment of the present application.
[0086] The door body 200 may include a door liner and a door shell. The door liner may face the refrigeration compartment 110 when the door body 200 is in a closed state. The door shell may be connected to the outer side of the door liner to form the appearance of the refrigerator. The door shell may be rotatably connected to the cabinet 100. The door body 200 may also include a door insulation layer, which may be arranged between the door liner and the door shell. The door insulation layer can insulate the refrigeration compartment 110 to minimize the heat exchange between the refrigeration compartment 110 and the outside of the refrigerator, which is conducive to ensuring the refrigeration effect of the refrigerator.
[0087] For example, Figure 1As shown, the door body 200 may include a door front wall 210. The door front wall 210 may be parallel to the box front wall 120 when the door body 200 is in a closed state. The door body 200 may also include a door rear wall 220 arranged opposite to the door front wall 210. When the door body 200 is in a closed state, the door rear wall 220 may be closer to the box body 100 than the door front wall 210. The door body 200 may also include two door side walls 230. The two door side walls 230 may be arranged opposite to each other and may be connected to the door front wall 210 and the door rear wall 220. The door body 200 may also include a door top wall 240. The door top wall 240 may be located above the door front wall 210, the door rear wall 220 and the two door side walls 230, and may be connected to the door front wall 210, the door rear wall 220 and the two door side walls 230. The door body 200 may also include a door bottom wall 250. The door bottom wall 250 may be located below the door front wall 210 , the door rear wall 220 , and the two door side walls 230 , and connected to the door front wall 210 , the door rear wall 220 , and the two door side walls 230 .
[0088] In some possible implementations of the embodiments of the present application, the refrigerator may further include a vibration-damping pad 170. The vibration-damping pad 170 may be connected to the box front wall 120. When the door body 200 is in a closed state, the vibration-damping pad 170 may fit with the door rear wall 220 of the door body 200. In the process of closing the door body 200, the vibration-damping pad 170 may reduce the collision between the door body 200 and the box body 100, thereby avoiding damage to the box body 100 and the door body 200 as much as possible.
[0089] For example, the vibration-damping pad 170 may include a first vibration-damping portion and a second vibration-damping portion connected to each other. The extension direction of the first vibration-damping portion may be perpendicular to the extension direction of the second vibration-damping portion.
[0090] Exemplarily, the material of the vibration-damping pad 170 may be a cotton material. It is understandable that the vibration-damping pad 170 may also be other materials with vibration-damping properties such as rubber, which will not be described in detail in the present embodiment of the application.
[0091] The refrigeration system may be arranged in the housing 100 to provide cooling capacity for the refrigeration compartment 110. For example, the refrigeration system may include a compressor, a condenser, a capillary tube, and an evaporator that are cyclically connected. When the refrigeration system is in operation, the compressor compresses the refrigerant vapor to generate high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant vapor, and transports the refrigerant vapor to the condenser. The condenser liquefies the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant vapor to generate high-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant liquid, and transports it to the capillary tube. After the capillary tube reduces the pressure of the refrigerant liquid, the high-pressure and low-temperature refrigerant liquid is converted into a low-pressure and low-temperature refrigerant liquid, and transported to the evaporator. After receiving the low-pressure and low-temperature refrigerant liquid, the evaporator boils it under isobaric conditions, absorbs heat and vaporizes it to form refrigerant vapor, so as to reduce the temperature in the refrigeration compartment 110.
[0092] like Figure 1 As shown, the refrigeration compartment 110 may further include a storage drawer 300, which may be slidably disposed in the refrigeration compartment 110. The storage drawer 300 may be configured with a storage space 310 for storing items. When taking or placing items in the storage drawer 300, the storage drawer 300 may be pulled out of the refrigeration compartment 110. After taking or placing items, the storage drawer 300 may be pushed into the refrigeration compartment 110. By providing the storage drawer 300, the user does not need to reach into the refrigeration compartment 110, which can improve the convenience of taking or placing items.
[0093] Exemplarily, the access opening of the refrigerating chamber 110 may be located at the front side of the refrigerator, and the refrigerating chamber 110 may have a rear side wall opposite to the access opening, and the direction of the rear side wall pointing to the access opening may be the first direction x. The storage drawer 300 may be slidably connected to the housing 100 along the first direction x. The storage drawer 300 may be configured with a storage space 310 with an open top. When taking and placing items in the storage drawer 300, the storage drawer 300 may be first pulled along the first direction x so that the storage drawer 300 is pulled out of the refrigerating chamber 110. Then, the storage drawer 300 is pushed along the first direction x to push the storage drawer 300 into the refrigerating chamber 110. By setting the access opening on the front side of the refrigerator and making the storage drawer 300 slidably connected to the box body 100 along the first direction x, the user can take and place items when facing the refrigerator, which makes it convenient for the user to apply pulling and pushing force to the storage drawer 300, thereby improving the convenience of taking and placing items.
[0094] For example, reference Figure 2 , the storage drawer 300 may include a drawer bottom plate 320, a drawer front plate 330, a drawer back plate 340 and two drawer side plates 350. The drawer bottom plate 320 may be arranged horizontally. The drawer back plate 340 and the drawer front plate 330 may be arranged oppositely and spaced apart in the first direction x. The drawer front plate 330 may be closer to the door body 200 than the drawer back plate 340. The drawer back plate 340 and the drawer front plate 330 are both connected to the drawer bottom plate 320. The two drawer side plates 350 may be arranged oppositely and spaced apart in the second direction y. The second direction y may be parallel to the drawer bottom plate 320 and perpendicular to the first direction x. The drawer side plates 350 may be connected to the drawer bottom plate 320, the drawer front plate 330 and the drawer back plate 340 to enclose a storage compartment with an open top with the drawer bottom plate 320, the drawer front plate 330 and the drawer back plate 340.
[0095] In some possible implementations of the present application, the drawer bottom plate 320, the drawer front plate 330, the drawer back plate 340 and the two drawer side plates 350 may be an integrated structure. In this way, the connection strength between the drawer bottom plate 320, the drawer front plate 330, the drawer back plate 340 and the two drawer side plates 350 can be improved, thereby improving the structural reliability of the storage drawer 300. In addition, the drawer bottom plate 320, the drawer front plate 330, the drawer back plate 340 and the two drawer side plates 350 can be processed by an integral molding method such as injection molding, which reduces the processing difficulty of the storage drawer 300 and improves the production efficiency of the storage drawer 300. Moreover, in the process of assembling the refrigerator, it is not necessary to assemble the drawer bottom plate 320, the drawer front plate 330, the drawer back plate 340 and the two drawer side plates 350, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the refrigerator.
[0096] like Figure 2 As shown, a pull recess 331 may be provided on the front side of the storage drawer 300. For example, the pull recess 331 may be provided on the side of the drawer front plate 330 facing away from the storage space 310. The pull recess 331 is used for the user's hand to be inserted into, so that the user can apply a pulling force to the storage drawer 300, thereby improving the convenience of pulling the storage drawer 300.
[0097] A protection pad 332 may be provided in the pull recess 331. When the user pulls the drawer, the user's hand may contact the protection pad 332, thereby improving the comfort when pulling the storage drawer 300.
[0098] Exemplarily, the material of the protective pad 332 may be a cotton material. It is understandable that the protective pad 332 may also be other materials with protective properties such as rubber, which will not be described in detail in the present embodiment of the application.
[0099] In some possible implementations of the present application, the refrigerator may further include a slide rail pair, and the storage drawer 300 may be slidably connected to the cabinet 100 along the first direction x through the slide rail pair. The slide rail pair includes a slide rail extending along the first direction x, and a slider slidably disposed on the slide rail. The slide rail may be connected to the inner side wall of the refrigeration compartment 110. The slider may be fixedly connected to the storage drawer 300, for example, may be fixedly connected to the drawer side panel 350.
[0100] In some other possible implementations of the present application, one of the inner sidewall of the refrigeration compartment 110 and the storage drawer 300 may be provided with a sliding recess extending along the first direction x. The other may be provided with a sliding protrusion, which may be slidably arranged in the sliding recess. Exemplarily, the sliding recess may be arranged on the inner sidewall of the refrigeration compartment 110. The sliding recess may be arranged on the side of the storage drawer 300 facing the inner sidewall, for example, it may be arranged on the side of the drawer side plate 350 facing the inner sidewall of the refrigeration compartment 110. Exemplarily, the sliding recess may be arranged on the side of the storage drawer 300 facing the inner sidewall of the refrigeration compartment 110, for example, it may be arranged on the side of the drawer side plate 350 super-facing the inner sidewall of the refrigeration compartment 110, and the sliding protrusion may be arranged on the inner sidewall of the refrigeration compartment 110.
[0101] Compared with the sliding connection between the storage drawer 300 and the box body 100 through a slide rail pair, the sliding connection through a sliding protrusion slidably arranged in a sliding recess can reduce the number of parts in the refrigerator, which is beneficial to improving the assembly efficiency of the refrigerator and reducing the cost of parts of the refrigerator.
[0102] refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In the embodiment of the present application, a receiving groove 360 may be provided inside the storage drawer 300. The refrigerator may further include a deicing rod, and at least a portion of the deicing rod may be provided inside the receiving groove 360. The deicing rod may be configured to apply a knocking force to the ice layer condensed on the inside of the storage drawer 300 in the receiving groove 360. By providing the deicing rod, the knocking force may be prevented from acting on the inner surface of the storage drawer 300 as much as possible, which is helpful to prevent scratches or damage to the storage drawer 300.
[0103] For example, the storage drawer 300 may be provided with a through hole 370 extending through the storage space 310. The deicing member 400 may include a knocking portion 420 and an operating portion 410. The operating portion 410 may be inserted into the through hole 370, and a portion of the operating portion 410 located in the storage space 310 may be connected to the knocking portion 420. The deicing member 400 may have a non-operating state and an operating state. Figure 2 As shown, when the de-icing member 400 is in a non-operating state, the knocking portion 420 can be accommodated in the receiving groove 360. When the de-icing member 400 is in an operating state (not shown in the drawings), the operating portion 410 can be actuated and drive the knocking portion 420, so that at least a portion of the knocking portion 420 can protrude from the receiving groove 360 to knock the ice layer condensed on the inner side of the storage drawer 300.
[0104] In the refrigerator of the embodiment of the present application, when the de-icing component 400 is in a non-operating state, the knocking part 420 can be accommodated in the receiving groove 360 to prevent the de-icing component 400 from occupying the storage compartment as much as possible, which is conducive to ensuring the storage capacity of the storage drawer 300. When the de-icing component 400 is in an operating state, the knocking part 420 can be driven by the operating part 410 to protrude from the receiving groove 360, so that the knocking part 420 can knock the ice layer condensed on the inner side of the storage drawer 300, so that the knocking force applied by the knocking part 420 can act on the ice layer as much as possible, thereby avoiding the knocking force from acting on the inner surface of the storage drawer 300 as much as possible, which is conducive to ensuring the ice crushing effect and preventing the storage drawer 300 from being scratched or damaged.
[0105] In some possible implementations of the embodiments of the present application, the user can manually actuate the operating part 410. When the de-icing component 400 is in working condition, the user can manually actuate the operating part 410, and drive the knocking part 420 to knock on the ice layer through the operating part 410. In some other possible implementations of the embodiments of the present application, the refrigerator can be provided with a driving mechanism, for example, the driving mechanism can be a swing motor. The driving mechanism can be connected to the operating part 410 of the de-icing rod to apply a driving force to the operating part 410, and drive the knocking part 420 to knock on the ice layer through the operating part 410. The technical solution of the embodiments of the present application is described below by taking the example of the user manually actuating the operating part 410. The technical solution of the embodiments of the present application that drives the operating part 410 to actuate by the driving mechanism can be referred to the following description, and the embodiments of the present application will not be repeated here.
[0106] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, a receiving groove 360 may be provided on the bottom side of the storage drawer 300, for example, on the top side of the drawer bottom plate 320. The receiving groove 360 may extend along the first direction x. The through hole 370 may penetrate the front side of the storage drawer 300 in the first direction x, for example, the through hole 370 may penetrate the drawer front plate 330 of the storage drawer 300. By arranging the receiving groove 360 on the bottom side of the storage drawer 300 and making the through hole 370 penetrate the front side of the storage drawer 300, the operating portion 410 may extend through the front side of the storage drawer 300 for user operation, so that the operating portion 410 directly faces the user, thereby improving the convenience of the user when operating the operating portion 410.
[0107] For example, Figures 2 to 5As shown, the through hole 370 may be a cylindrical through hole. The operating portion 410 may be a cylindrical structure, and the first end of the cylindrical structure may be inserted into the cylindrical through hole and may rotate in the cylindrical through hole. The portion of the cylindrical structure located in the storage space 310 may be connected to the knocking portion 420. When deicing is performed using the deicing rod, the user may manually rotate the operating portion 410. Since the operating portion 410 is a cylindrical structure and the through hole 370 is a cylindrical through hole, the operating portion 410 may rotate in the through hole 370. The rotating operating portion 410 may drive the knocking portion 420 to protrude from the receiving groove 360 to knock on the ice layer condensed on the inner side of the storage drawer 300. By setting the through hole 370 as a cylindrical through hole and setting the operating part 410 as a cylindrical structure, the operating part 410 can rotate in the through hole 370 during the de-icing process to minimize the space required for the operating part 410 to operate, which is beneficial to improving the space utilization of the storage drawer 300.
[0108] It should be noted that during the de-icing process, the user can repeatedly rotate the operating part 410, that is, swing the operating part 410, and the operating part 410 can drive the knocking part 420 to repeatedly knock the ice layer in a small range to break the ice layer above the knocking part 420. After the ice layer at this location is broken, the integrity of the ice layer in the storage drawer 300 is destroyed, and the remaining ice layer in the storage drawer 300 can be easily separated from the storage drawer 300 due to the loss of support, so as to remove all the ice layers in the storage drawer 300.
[0109] For example, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a support recess 380 may be further provided on the inner side of the storage drawer 300. For example, the support recess 380 may be a support groove or a support hole. The support recess 380 may be arranged opposite to the cylindrical through hole. The support recess 380 may be used for the second end of the cylindrical structure to pass through. The second end of the cylindrical structure may be rotatable in the support recess 380. The support recess 380 may support the second end of the cylindrical structure, thereby improving the stability of the cylindrical structure when rotating.
[0110] In some possible implementations of the present application, the receiving groove 360 may be a rectangular groove. The length direction of the rectangular groove may be arranged along the first direction x, and the width direction of the rectangular groove may be arranged along the second direction y. The cylindrical through hole and the supporting recess 380 may both be connected to the rectangular groove. When the deicing member 400 is in a non-operating state, the operating portion 410 and the knocking portion 420 may both be located in the rectangular groove.
[0111] In some other possible implementations of the present application, Figures 2 to 5As shown, the accommodating groove 360 may include an operation accommodating portion 361 and a knocking accommodating portion 362 that are connected. The operation accommodating portion 361 may be connected to the cylindrical through hole and the supporting recessed portion 380. The knocking accommodating portion 362 and the operation accommodating portion 361 may be arranged in the second direction y. The second direction y may be parallel to the bottom side of the storage drawer 300, for example, the second direction y may be parallel to the drawer bottom plate 320 of the storage drawer 300. And the second direction y may be perpendicular to the first direction x. The operation portion 410 and the knocking portion 420 may be arranged in the second direction y. When the deicing component 400 is in a non-working state, the operation portion 410 may be accommodated in the operation accommodating portion 361, and the knocking portion 420 may be accommodated in the knocking accommodating portion 362. Such an arrangement can make the shape of the receiving groove 360 match the shape of the de-icing component 400 to reduce the area of the receiving groove 360 in the horizontal direction as much as possible, which is beneficial to provide a larger support area for the items in the storage drawer 300.
[0112] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The inner surface of the operation accommodating portion 361 may be an arc surface, and the arc surface may contact the cylindrical structure. When the operation portion 410 is a cylindrical structure, when the user rotates the operation portion 410, the operation portion 410 may rotate within the arc surface, and the arc surface may provide support for the cylindrical structure, thereby improving the stability of the operation portion 410 when rotating.
[0113] For example, the radius of the arc surface, the radius of the cylindrical through hole, and the radius of the support recess 380 can be equal. In this arrangement, since the cylindrical structure is in contact with the arc surface, and the first end of the cylindrical structure is inserted into the cylindrical through hole, and the second end of the cylindrical structure is inserted into the support recess 380, the radius of the cylindrical structure can be equal everywhere, and there is no need to set the cylindrical structure to a variable diameter, thereby reducing the difficulty of processing the cylindrical structure.
[0114] It should be noted that the reference Figure 6 There may be a gap between the side of the knocking accommodating portion 362 facing away from the operating accommodating portion 361 and the side of the knocking portion 420 facing away from the operating portion 410, so that when the operating portion 410 drives the knocking portion 420 to swing during the de-icing process, interference between the knocking accommodating portion 362 and the knocking portion 420 can be avoided as much as possible, which is conducive to ensuring that the knocking portion 420 can protrude from the accommodating groove 360.
[0115] When the deicing member 400 is in a non-operating state, along the third direction z, the height of the knocking accommodating portion 362 may be greater than the height of the knocking portion 420. The third direction z may be perpendicular to the first direction x and the second direction y. With such a configuration, when the operating portion 410 drives the knocking portion 420 to swing during the deicing process, interference between the knocking accommodating portion 362 and the knocking portion 420 can be avoided as much as possible, which is conducive to ensuring that the knocking portion 420 can protrude from the accommodating groove 360.
[0116] refer to Figures 2 to 5 , there may be a plurality of knocking accommodating parts 362, and the plurality of knocking accommodating parts 362 may be arranged on both sides of the operation accommodating part 361 in the second direction y. Exemplarily, there may be an even number of knocking accommodating parts 362, and the even number of knocking accommodating parts 362 may be symmetrically arranged on both sides of the operation accommodating part 361. There may be a plurality of knocking parts 420, and the plurality of knocking parts 420 may be arranged on both sides of the operation part 410 in the second direction y. The plurality of knocking parts 420 may correspond to the plurality of knocking accommodating parts 362 one by one. When the deicing part 400 is in a non-working state, each knocking part 420 may be accommodated in the knocking accommodating part 362 corresponding thereto. By providing a plurality of knocking parts 420, the knocking force applied to the ice layer condensed on the inner side of the storage drawer 300 may be increased, which is conducive to enhancing the deicing effect.
[0117] refer to Figures 2 to 5 , the operating part 410 may be provided with an avoidance recess 411, and when the de-icing component 400 is in a non-operating state, at least a portion of the surface of the avoidance recess 411 may be flush with at least a portion of the inner surface of the storage drawer 300. For example, the avoidance recess 411 may include an avoidance bottom surface 412. When the de-icing component 400 is in a non-operating state, the avoidance bottom surface 412 may be flush with the surface of the drawer bottom plate 320 located in the storage space 310. In this way, when the de-icing component 400 is in a non-operating state, the operating part 410 may be avoided to protrude from the accommodating groove 360 as much as possible, so as to prevent the operating part 410 from occupying the storage space 310 as much as possible, which is conducive to improving the space utilization rate of the storage drawer 300.
[0118] In some possible implementations of the embodiment of the present application, the avoidance recess 411 may further include a avoidance side surface 413 perpendicular to the avoidance bottom surface 412. The avoidance side surface 413 may be flush with the surface of the drawer rear panel 340 located in the storage space 310, or the avoidance side surface 413 may be flush with the surface of the drawer front panel 330 located in the storage space 310. In this way, when the de-icing component 400 is in a non-working state, the operating portion 410 may be avoided to protrude from the inner surface of the storage drawer 300 as much as possible, so as to prevent the operating portion 410 from occupying the storage space 310 as much as possible, which is conducive to improving the space utilization rate of the storage drawer 300.
[0119] For example, reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The interior of the operating portion 410 and / or the knocking portion 420 may be hollow. This arrangement can reduce the weight of the deicing member 400 and reduce the operating force required to operate the deicing member 400, thereby improving the convenience of the user when operating the deicing member 400.
[0120] refer to Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The operation part 410 and the knocking part 420 may be detachably connected. For example, the operation part 410 may be provided with a mounting groove 414, and a plugging recess 415 may be provided in the mounting groove 414. The knocking part 420 may be accommodated in the mounting groove 414, and a plugging protrusion 421 may be provided on a side of the knocking part 420 facing the mounting groove 414, and the plugging protrusion 421 may be plugged into the plugging recess 415.
[0121] When installing the deicing component 400, the operating part 410 can be placed in the receiving groove 360 first, and the operating part 410 can be inserted into the through hole 370. Then the operating part 410 is rotated so that the installation groove 414 is not blocked by the receiving groove 360, that is, the installation groove 414 is exposed, and then the plugging protrusion of the knocking part 420 is plugged into the plugging recess 415 in the installation groove 414. By setting the operating part 410 and the knocking part 420 to be detachably connected, the deicing component 400 can be assembled separately during the installation of the deicing component 400, which improves the convenience of installing the deicing component 400.
[0122] like Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown, a storage groove 333 may be provided on the side of the storage drawer 300 facing away from the storage space 310, a through hole 370 may be provided in the storage groove 333, and an end of the operating part 410 extending out of the storage space 310 through the through hole 370 may be accommodated in the storage groove 333. When deicing, the user may reach into the storage groove 333 and rotate the operating part 410. By providing the storage groove 333, the operating part 410 may be prevented from protruding from the outer surface of the storage drawer 300 as much as possible, which is conducive to reducing or eliminating the negative impact on the appearance of the storage drawer 300 caused by the provision of the deicing member 400.
[0123] refer to Figure 1 and Fig.10 The refrigerator of the embodiment of the present application may further include a shielding member 334 , which may shield the storage slot 333 to improve the aesthetics of the storage drawer 300 .
[0124] Exemplarily, the shielding member 334 may include a first Velcro 335 and a second Velcro 336. The first Velcro 335 may be disposed on one side of the storage slot 333. The second Velcro 336 covers the storage slot 333 and the first Velcro 335, and one end of the second Velcro 336 opposite to the first Velcro 335 is detachably bonded to the second Velcro 336, and the other end of the second Velcro 336 is fixed to the storage drawer 300.
[0125] When deicing, the second Velcro 336 can be separated from the first Velcro 335 to expose the storage slot 333 and the operating member in the storage slot 333, and the user can swing the operating member to de-ice. After de-icing, the second modular tape can be bonded to the first Velcro 335 to cover the storage slot 333.
[0126] The refrigerator of the embodiment of the present application may further include a protective pad, which may be disposed in the storage drawer 300 and at least cover the receiving groove 360 and the deicing member 400. For example, the protective pad may cover the bottom side of the storage drawer 300. The protective pad may improve the flatness of the bottom side of the storage drawer 300.
[0127] Exemplarily, the protective pad may be a rubber pad or other materials such as plastic, which will not be described in detail in the embodiments of the present application.
