[0029] Example:

[0030] This embodiment provides a refrigerator, comprising a drawer 1, a cabinet door 2 and a cabinet body, wherein the cabinet door 2 is installed at the opening of the cabinet body to control the opening and closing of the cabinet body, and the drawer 1 is installed on the cabinet body in a pull-out manner.

[0031] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, a first magnetic component 11 is installed on the drawer 1, and a second magnetic component 21 is installed on the cabinet door 2. The first magnetic component 11 is magnetically attracted to the second magnetic component 21. In order to match the movement of the drawer 1 on the cabinet, the cabinet door 2 is pushed and pulled on the cabinet to open and close the cabinet opening.

[0032] When food needs to be taken out from the drawer 1, the cabinet door 2 can be directly opened, and the magnetic attraction between the second magnetic attraction component 21 and the first magnetic attraction component 11 can be used to make the drawer 1 be pulled out synchronously with the cabinet door 2, thereby reducing the time required to pull out the drawer 1, thereby reducing the leakage of cold air in the cabinet, and increasing the speed of taking food out of the drawer 1. It is easy to understand that the magnetic attraction relationship between the drawer 1 and the cabinet door 2 also facilitates the separation and assembly of the drawer 1 and the cabinet door 2.

[0033] See also Figure 3 The cabinet door 2 is provided with an avoidance groove 22, which extends in the horizontal direction and is perpendicular to the cabinet door 2, and the second magnetic component 21 is at least partially located in the avoidance groove 22. The avoidance groove 22 limits the second magnetic component 21 and increases the contact area between the second magnetic component 21 and the cabinet door 2, thereby improving the connection strength between the second magnetic component 21 and the cabinet door 2 and reducing the possibility of the second magnetic component 21 falling off the cabinet door 2.

[0034] Preferably, the first magnetic component 11 is located inside the drawer 1. For example, in this embodiment, the first magnetic component 11 is arranged on the inner wall of the drawer 1. If the first magnetic component 11 falls, the first magnetic component 11 will only fall into the drawer 1 and will not be lost.

[0035] The second magnetic component 21 of this embodiment includes a second magnetic member 211 and an elastic member 212. A portion of the second magnetic member 211 is located outside the avoidance groove 22 to allow the drawer 1 to contact and squeeze the second magnetic member 211. The elastic member 212 is located between the second magnetic member 211 and the side wall of the avoidance groove 22. The drawer 1 and the cabinet door 2 are arranged at intervals. When the drawer 1 is pushed toward the cabinet door 2, the second magnetic member 211 will gradually enter the avoidance groove 22 and cause the elastic member 212 to be squeezed and deformed, and then the drawer 1 is released. At this time, the elastic member 212 can release the elastic potential energy and cause the second magnetic member 211 to provide an impulse to the drawer 1, so that the drawer 1 moves in a direction away from the cabinet door 2, and finally the second magnetic member 211 and the drawer 1 are separated.

[0036] See also Figure 5 The second magnetic component 21 also includes a first transmission sleeve 213 and a second transmission sleeve 214. The first transmission sleeve 213 and the second transmission sleeve 214 are coaxial and spaced apart. The second magnetic component 211 is fixed to one end of the first transmission sleeve 213 so that the second magnetic component 211 and the first transmission sleeve 213 maintain synchronous movement. A portion of the second magnetic component 211 is exposed from the first transmission sleeve 213, and a plurality of transmission bevel teeth 215 are provided at the other end of the first transmission sleeve 213. The transmission bevel teeth 215 are triangular in shape and are located at the edge of the opening at the end of the first transmission sleeve 213. In addition, there are a plurality of transmission bevel teeth 215, and all transmission bevel teeth 215 are arranged in sequence along the circumference of the first transmission sleeve 213.

[0037] A transmission push rod 216 is disposed at one end of the second transmission sleeve 214. The transmission push rod 216 extends axially along the second transmission sleeve 214. One end of the transmission push rod 216 is fixed to the edge of the opening at the end of the second transmission sleeve 214, and the other end of the transmission push rod 216 abuts against the transmission bevel gear 215. The end of the transmission push rod 216 at the transmission bevel gear 215 is wedge-shaped to match the shape of the transmission bevel gear 215, so that the first transmission sleeve 213 will also move axially when rotating. The opening edge of the second transmission sleeve 214 away from the transmission push rod 216 abuts against the elastic member 212.

[0038] When the drawer 1 moves toward the cabinet door 2, it pushes the second magnetic member 211, and the second magnetic member 211 moves axially. The transmission bevel gear 215 also pushes the transmission top rod 216, so that the second transmission sleeve 214 also moves axially, thereby the second transmission sleeve 214 squeezes the elastic member 212, and the elastic member 212 can store a certain amount of elastic potential energy. After the drawer 1 stops moving toward the cabinet door 2, the elastic member 212 provides an impulse to the second transmission sleeve 214 to push the second transmission sleeve 214 toward the drawer 1, and the drawer 1 moves away from the cabinet door 2, finally separating the second magnetic member 211 from the first magnetic assembly 11.

[0039] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, the second magnetic attraction component 21 also includes a mounting sleeve 217, one end of which is open and the other end has an end wall. The second transmission sleeve 214 and the elastic member 212 are both located in the mounting sleeve 217, and the two ends of the elastic member 212 abut against the end walls of the second transmission sleeve 214 and the mounting sleeve 217, respectively. A portion of the second magnetic attraction component 211 is exposed at the end opening of the mounting sleeve 217, and the first transmission sleeve 213 is at least partially located in the mounting sleeve 217. By installing the sleeve 217, the second magnetic attraction component 21 can be modularly installed at the avoidance groove 22, simplifying the assembly process of the second magnetic attraction component 21 on the cabinet door 2.

[0040] See also Figure 5 Preferably, the second magnetic attraction component 21 of this embodiment further includes a guide column 218, which is arranged in the middle of the first transmission sleeve 213, one end of the guide column 218 is fixed to the second magnetic attraction component 211, and the other end of the guide column 218 is located between the first transmission sleeve 213 and the second transmission sleeve 214. A slide groove 219 is provided on the outer wall of the end of the guide column 218 between the first transmission sleeve 213 and the second transmission sleeve 214, and the transmission push rod 216 is slidably arranged in the slide groove 219. There are multiple slide grooves 219 and they correspond to the transmission push rods 216 one by one, so that the transmission push rod 216 can clamp the guide column 218, and the first transmission sleeve 213 can obtain radial positioning on the second transmission sleeve 214.

[0041] In addition, the outer wall of the second transmission sleeve 214 can fit with the inner wall of the installation sleeve 217 so that the second transmission sleeve 214 can be radially positioned in the installation sleeve 217 .

[0042] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0043] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
