Detailed implementation manners

[0039] Embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, where like or similar reference numerals denote like or similar elements or elements having like or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary only for explaining the present application and should not be construed as limiting the present application.

[0040] Unless otherwise specified, as Figures 1-3 shown, the first direction in the present application is the front - rear direction; the second direction is the left - right direction; and the third direction is the up - down direction.

[0041] The present application discloses a storage device.

[0042] The storage device may include, but is not limited to, a refrigerator, a freezer, a display cabinet, a beverage cabinet, a wine cabinet, a cold fresh cabinet, and a refrigerated vending machine, etc., without limitation here. As a specific example, in the embodiments of the present application, a vertical refrigerator is taken as a specific example for illustration.

[0043] Next, refer to Figures 1-8 to describe the storage device according to the embodiments of the present application.

[0044] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figures 4-5 shown, the storage device includes: an inner container 10, a first rib 20, and a second rib 30.

[0045] The inner container 10 forms a compartment 11 that is open on one side along the first direction. The inner container 10 has first to fifth inner walls 18. The first inner wall 14 to the fourth inner wall 17 are connected end to end in sequence and are all adjacent to the opening 12 of the compartment 11. The fifth inner wall 18 is disposed opposite to the opening 12 of the compartment 11. On the first inner wall 14 and the third inner wall 16 of the inner container 10 along the second direction, there are both inwardly protruding first ribs 20. On the surface of the first rib 20 close to the second inner wall 15, there is a limiting groove 21. On the first inner wall 14 and the third inner wall 16 of the inner container 10 along the second direction, there are both inwardly protruding second ribs 30 that are separated from the first ribs 20. The second rib 30 is provided with a limiting protrusion 31 protruding towards the fourth inner wall 17. The shelf 40 is supported on the surface of the first rib 20 close to the second inner wall 15. The part of the shelf 40 close to the opening 12 is in limiting cooperation with the limiting groove 21 along the first direction, and the part of the shelf 40 close to the fifth inner wall 18 is in limiting cooperation with the limiting protrusion 31 along the third direction.

[0046] It can be understood that, as Figure 1 and Figure 9As shown, the opening 12 and the fifth inner wall 18 are arranged relatively to each other along the first direction, that is, the fifth inner wall 18 is the back wall of the inner liner 10; the first inner wall 14 and the third inner wall 16 are arranged relatively to each other along the second direction, that is, the first inner wall 14 is the left inner wall, and the third inner wall 16 is the right inner wall; the second inner wall 15 and the fourth inner wall 17 are arranged relatively to each other along the third direction, that is, the second inner wall 15 is the upper inner wall, and the fourth inner wall 17 is the lower inner wall.

[0047] Exemplarily, the inner liner 10 may be a cube with one side not closed.

[0048] The first ribs 20 on the first inner wall 14 and the first ribs 20 on the third inner wall 16 can be symmetrically arranged, that is, the positions, shapes and sizes of the two are the same; similarly, the second ribs 30 on the first inner wall 14 and the second ribs 30 on the third inner wall 16 can be symmetrically arranged, that is, the positions, shapes and sizes of the two are the same. In this way, when the shelf 40 is supported on the first ribs 20, the shelf 40 as a whole can be kept in a basically horizontal state, and the stability of the items placed can be maintained, thereby improving the stability of the installation and the service life of the shelf 40.

[0049] In this embodiment, the first rib 20 and the second rib 30 can be integrally formed with the inner liner 10 by injection molding or casting.

[0050] like Figure 8 As shown, the limiting groove 21 is provided on the upper surface of the first gallbladder rib 20, the limiting groove 21 is open upward and inward, the limiting protrusion 31 is provided on the inner surface of the second gallbladder rib 30, the front part of the shelf 40 is limitedly matched with the limiting groove 21 along the front-to-back direction, and the rear part of the shelf 40 is limitedly matched with the limiting protrusion 31 along the up-down direction.

[0051] In the related art, in traditional storage devices, the first ribs only play a supporting role for the shelves, and a certain space is left between the second ribs and the shelves in the up and down directions. However, this storage device has many disadvantages in actual applications: first, if the weight of the front section of the shelf is greater than the weight of the rear section, the front section of the shelf will tilt downward and the rear section of the shelf will tilt up, causing items on the shelf to fall off, or even causing the shelf to directly break away from the first ribs and collide with other components; second, the shelf may slide or shift during use, especially when the door of the storage device is opened and closed, or when items are placed and moved inside the storage device.

[0052] In actual implementation, Figures 2-3As shown, during the assembly of the shelf 40, the front part of the shelf 40 can be held by hand, and the shelf 40 is pushed from front to back until the rear part of the shelf 40 abuts against the limiting protrusion 31 of the second rib 30. At this time, the front part of the shelf 40 also reaches the upper limiting groove 21 on the first rib 20 and is snapped into the limiting groove 21. During the disassembly of the shelf 40, the front part of the shelf 40 can be held by hand, and the front part of the shelf 40 is lifted to separate the front part of the shelf 40 from the limiting groove 21. At this time, the rear part of the shelf 40 is separated from the limiting protrusion 31, and the shelf 40 is pulled from back to front until the shelf 40 completely leaves the compartment 11.

[0053] It can be understood that when the gravity of the items borne by the front part of the shelf 40 is greater than the gravity of the items borne by the rear part of the shelf 40, since the second rib 30 is provided with a downward protruding limiting protrusion 31, through the limiting cooperation between the limiting protrusion 31 and the rear part of the shelf 40 in the up and down direction, the clearance between the shelf 40 and the second rib 30 in the up and down direction is reduced, so that the shaking distance of the shelf 40 in the up and down direction is smaller, and the assembly between the first rib 20 and the second rib 30 is more stable. When the door body of the storage device is opened and closed and items are placed and moved, due to the limiting groove 21 provided on the upper surface of the first rib 20, through the limiting cooperation between the limiting groove 21 and the front part of the shelf 40 in the front and back direction, the shelf 40 cannot shake or shift in the up and down direction, thereby effectively preventing the failure of the limiting boss function caused by the forward movement of the shelf 40.

[0054] It should be noted that the shapes and sizes of the first rib 20 and the second rib 30 can be designed according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not make specific limitations on this.

[0055] One or more shelves 40 are provided. Multiple means two or more, so as to divide the internal space of the inner container 10 into multiple layers, increasing the space utilization rate of the compartment 11, so that more items can be placed and stored. In this embodiment, the number and specific distribution of the shelves 40 can be designed according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not make specific limitations on this.

[0056] The storage device provided by the embodiment of the present application, through the design of the limiting cooperation between the above-mentioned limiting protrusion 31 and the rear part of the shelf 40 in the up and down direction, reduces the clearance between the shelf 40 and the second rib 30 in the up and down direction, reduces the up and down inclination angle of the shelf 40, makes the shaking distance of the shelf 40 in the up and down direction smaller, reduces the probability of the shelf 40 tilting and items falling due to the excessive weight of the items placed on the front part of the shelf 40, thereby increasing the stability and reliability of the assembly of the shelf 40, and combining the limiting cooperation between the limiting groove 21 and the front part of the shelf 40 in the front and back direction, can limit the displacement of the shelf 40 in the front and back direction, effectively prevent the failure of the limiting boss function caused by the forward movement of the shelf 40, and improve the user experience.

[0057] In some embodiments, as Figure 4 shown, the shelf 40 includes: a placement board 41, a first decorative strip 42, and a second decorative strip 43.

[0058] As Figures 2-4 shown, the placement board 41 is horizontally placed on the surface of the first rib 20 close to the second inner wall 15; the first decorative strip 42 is wrapped around the edge of the placement board 41 close to the opening 12, and the first decorative strip 42 is in limit fit with the limit groove 21 along the first direction, and the second decorative strip 43 is wrapped around the edge of the placement board 41 close to the fifth inner wall 18, and the second decorative strip 43 is in limit fit with the limit protrusion 31 along the third direction.

[0059] Among them, as Figures 2-4 shown, the placement board 41 is the main part of the shelf 40 and is used to directly carry and support the stored items. The placement board 41 is horizontally placed on the upper surface of the first rib 20, providing a stable placement platform for the items; the design of the first decorative strip 42 mainly plays a role in decoration and limitation. The first decorative strip 42 is wrapped around the front edge of the placement board 41, not only beautifying the appearance of the shelf 40, but also increasing the stability of the shelf 40 in the front-rear direction through the limit fit of the left and right ends of the first decorative strip 42 with the corresponding limit grooves 21 respectively; similarly, the design of the second decorative strip 43 also mainly plays a role in decoration and limitation. The second decorative strip 43 is wrapped around the rear edge of the edge of the placement board 41, not only beautifying the appearance of the shelf 40, but also increasing the stability of the shelf 40 in the up-down direction through the limit fit of the left and right ends of the second decorative strip 43 with the corresponding limit protrusions 31 respectively.

[0060] It should be noted that the material of the placement board 41 includes but is not limited to glass, and the materials of the first decorative strip 42 and the second decorative strip 43 include but are not limited to hard plastics.

[0061] Exemplarily, the placement board 41 can be a glass partition, a tempered glass partition, or an acrylic partition, etc.

[0062] The storage device provided by the embodiment of the present application, through the limiting cooperation of the above-mentioned first decorative strip 42 and the limiting groove 21 in the front-back direction, and the limiting cooperation of the second decorative strip 43 and the limiting protrusion 31 in the up-down direction, jointly constitute a stable support structure of the shelf 40 in the inner container 10. This multi-directional limiting design significantly enhances the stability of the shelf 40, preventing the shelf 40 from shaking or tilting due to vibration or unbalanced item placement during the operation of the storage device. Without adding extra components, the load-bearing capacity of the shelf 40 is effectively improved, enabling the shelf 40 to carry heavier items without worrying about deformation or damage caused by excessive load. At the same time, the design of the first decorative strip 42 and the second decorative strip 43 also reduces the ineffective space at the edge of the shelf 40, making the entire shelf 40 more compact and efficient.

[0063] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 shown, the first decorative strip 42 includes a first connection section 421, a second connection section 422, and a third connection section 423 connected in sequence. The first connection section 421 is connected to the surface of the storage plate 41 adjacent to the second inner wall 15, the second connection section 422 is disposed opposite to the end face of the storage plate 41 close to the opening 12, and the second connection section 422 abuts against the bottom wall of the limiting groove 21, and the third connection section 423 is connected to the surface of the storage plate 41 adjacent to the fourth inner wall 17.

[0064] The connection manner between the storage plate 41 and the first decorative strip 42 includes but is not limited to snap connection, bonding, or bolt connection, etc., and is not limited here.

[0065] For example, in some embodiments, such as Figure 6 shown, the connection manner between the storage plate 41 and the first decorative strip 42 is snap connection.

[0066] In this embodiment, as Figure 6 shown, the first connection section 421 and the third connection section 423 can be horizontally arranged, the second connection section 422 can be vertically connected between the first connection section 421 and the third connection section 423, the longitudinal section of the first decorative strip 42 in the front-back direction can be approximately in a U-shaped structure, at least one buckle is provided on the lower surface of the first connection section 421, and corresponding slots are provided on the upper surface of the front edge of the storage plate 41. The first connection section 421 and the upper surface of the front edge of the storage plate 41 can be snap-connected through the buckle and the slot to achieve fixed assembly. The rear surface of the second connection section 422 can be spaced from the front end face of the storage plate 41, and the second connection section 422 abuts against the bottom wall of the limiting groove 21. At least one buckle is provided on the upper surface of the third connection section 423, and corresponding slots are provided on the lower surface of the front edge of the storage plate 41. The third connection section 423 and the lower surface of the front edge of the storage plate 41 can be snap-connected through the buckle and the slot to achieve fixed assembly.

[0067] The storage device provided by the embodiment of the present application, through the settings of the above-mentioned first connection section 421, second connection section 422, and third connection section 423, the second connection section 422 is in abutting cooperation with the limiting groove 21. This design realizes the effective limitation of the storage board 41 by the first decorative strip 42 in the front-back direction, preventing the shelf 40 from moving in the front-back direction. Even when the compartment 11 is subjected to vibration or external force impact, it can maintain its stable position, avoiding shaking or displacement. At the same time, the first connection section 421 is connected to the upper surface of the front edge of the storage board 41, and the third connection section 423 is connected to the lower surface of the front edge of the storage board 41. This upper and lower clamping structural design optimizes the load-bearing performance of the shelf 40, enabling the storage board 41 to disperse the force more evenly onto the first decorative strip 42 when stressed, thereby improving the load-bearing capacity and service life of the shelf 40. Secondly, the multi-section design structure of the first decorative strip 42 has a reasonable layout and clear functional partitions, realizing the overall miniaturization and lightweight design of the first decorative strip 42.

[0068] In some embodiments, as Figure 6 shown, the second connection section 422 is inclined from the end connected to the first connection section 421 to the other end towards the opening 12, and the second connection section 422 is spaced from the side wall of the limiting groove 21 close to the opening; the surface of the second connection section 422 close to the fourth inner wall 17 is arc-shaped, and the surface of the second connection section 422 close to the fourth inner wall 17 abuts against the bottom wall of the limiting groove 21.

[0069] It can be understood that the front surface of the second connection section 422 is inclined forward from top to bottom. This design enables the second connection section 422 to slide into the limiting groove 21 more easily when installing the shelf 40. The inclined front surface plays a guiding role, guiding the user to correctly align and push the shelf 40, thereby simplifying the installation process, improving the installation efficiency, and reducing friction and wear; the front surface of the second connection section 422 is spaced from the front side wall of the limiting groove 21, reducing the direct contact and friction between the two. This design reduces the wear caused by friction and extends the service life of the shelf 40 and the inner container 10. At the same time, the spaced arrangement also allows a certain tolerance range, making the installation of the shelf 40 more flexible and convenient; the lower surface of the second connection section 422 is arc-shaped. This design helps to better disperse the stress when the shelf 40 is under pressure. The arc-shaped lower surface can provide a more uniform supporting surface, reducing the concentrated stress on the bottom wall of the limiting groove 21, thereby solving the problem of damage caused by excessive single-point stress.

[0070] The storage device provided by the embodiment of the present application, through the shape design of each part of the second connecting section 422, when installing the shelf 40, the second connecting section 422 can more easily slide into the limiting groove 21. The inclined front surface plays a guiding role, guiding the user to correctly align and push in the shelf 40, simplifying the installation process and improving the installation efficiency; reducing the direct contact and friction between the front surface of the second connecting section 422 and the front side wall of the limiting groove 21, reducing the wear caused by friction, and extending the service life of the shelf 40 and the inner liner 10. At the same time, the spaced arrangement also allows a certain tolerance range, making the installation of the shelf 40 more flexible and convenient; moreover, the arc-shaped lower surface helps to better disperse stress when the shelf 40 is under pressure, can provide a more uniform supporting surface, and reduces the concentrated stress on the bottom wall of the limiting groove 21, thus solving the problem of breakage caused by excessive single-point stress.

[0071] In some embodiments, as Figure 6 shown, both the first connecting section 421 and the third connecting section 423 are spaced apart from the respective wall surfaces of the limiting groove 21.

[0072] In this embodiment, as Figure 6 shown, the first connecting section 421 is entirely located above the limiting groove 21, so the first connecting section 421 does not contact the respective wall surfaces of the limiting groove 21 as a whole. At least a part of the second connecting section 422 and the third connecting section 423 as a whole are located in the limiting groove 21, and the third connecting section 423 does not contact the respective wall surfaces of the limiting groove 21. Specifically, based on the fact that the lower surface of the second connecting section 422 is higher than the lower surface of the third connecting section 423 and the lower surface of the second connecting section 422 abuts against the bottom wall of the limiting groove 21, under the supporting action of the bottom of the second connecting section 422, the lower surface of the third connecting section 423 is spaced from the bottom wall of the limiting groove 21, and the rear surface of the third connecting section 423 is spaced from the rear side wall of the limiting groove 21. The width of the first connecting section 421 in the front-rear direction can be greater than the width of the third connecting section 423 in the front-rear direction. The larger width of the first connecting section 421 can provide better support and stability, while when the limiting groove 21 is relatively narrow or the installation space is limited, the smaller width of the third connecting section 423 helps to reduce interference and facilitate smooth installation.

[0073] The storage device provided by the embodiment of the present application, through the layout design of the above-mentioned first connecting section 421 and the third connection, reduces the friction and wear generated by direct contact, extends the service life of the shelf 40, also reduces the noise and vibration generated by friction, improves the stability and reliability of the overall structure. At the same time, the separated design makes the first decorative strip 42 have higher flexibility during installation. Since there is no need to precisely align the wall surface of the limiting groove 21, the first decorative strip 42 can be more easily placed in place, reducing the installation difficulty and error. This design also allows the connecting section to be finely adjusted within a certain range to adapt to different installation conditions or tolerance requirements, and also provides more operating space during maintenance or replacement of components, reducing the maintenance cost.

[0074] In some embodiments, as Figure 7 shown, the second decorative strip 43 includes a first forming section 431, a second forming section 432, a third forming section 433, and a fourth forming section 434 connected in sequence. The first forming section 431 is connected to the surface of the storage plate 41 close to the second inner wall 15, and the first forming section 431 abuts against the limiting protrusion 31. The second forming section 432 is disposed opposite to the end surface of the storage plate 41 close to the fifth inner wall 18. The third forming section 433 is connected to the surface of the storage plate 41 close to the fourth inner wall 17. The fourth forming section 434 is folded relative to the third forming section 433 toward the fourth inner wall 17, and the fourth forming section 434 is spaced apart from both the first rib 20 and the second rib 30.

[0075] The connection method between the storage plate 41 and the second decorative strip 43 includes, but is not limited to, snap connection, bonding, or bolt connection, etc., and is not limited here.

[0076] For example, in some embodiments, as Figure 7 shown, the connection method between the storage plate 41 and the second decorative strip 43 is snap connection.

[0077] In this embodiment, as Figure 7As shown, the first forming section 431 and the third forming section 433 can be horizontally arranged, the second forming section 432 can be vertically connected between the first forming section 431 and the third forming section 433. At least one buckle is provided on the lower surface of the first forming section 431, and corresponding card slots are provided on the upper surface of the rear edge of the storage plate 41. The first forming section 431 and the upper surface of the rear edge of the storage plate 41 can be clamped through the buckle and the card slot to achieve fixed assembly. The rear surface of the second forming section 432 can be spaced from the rear end surface of the storage plate 41. At least one buckle is provided on the upper surface of the third forming section 433, and corresponding card slots are provided on the lower surface of the rear edge of the storage plate 41. The third forming section 433 and the lower surface of the rear edge of the storage plate 41 can be clamped through the buckle and the card slot to achieve fixed assembly. The fourth forming section 434 is arranged to be folded downwards relative to the third forming section 433, and the front-back direction orthographic projection of the fourth forming section 434 partially coincides with the front-back direction orthographic projection of the first rib 20.

[0078] For the storage device provided by the embodiment of the present application, through the settings of the above-mentioned first forming section 431, second forming section 432, third forming section 433 and fourth forming section 434, the first forming section 431 is in abutting cooperation with the limiting protrusion 31. This design realizes the effective limitation of the storage plate 41 by the second decorative strip 43 in the up-down direction, preventing the shelf 40 from tilting and the items from falling due to the excessive weight of the items placed in the front part of the shelf 40. At the same time, the first forming section 431 is connected to the upper surface of the rear edge of the storage plate 41, and the third forming section 433 is connected to the lower surface of the rear edge of the storage plate 41. This up-down clamping structural design optimizes the load-bearing performance of the shelf 40, so that when the storage plate 41 is stressed, it can be more evenly distributed to the second decorative strip 43, thereby further improving the load-bearing capacity and service life of the shelf 40. Secondly, by using the downward protruding design of the fourth forming section 434, even if the first decorative strip 42 is not snapped into the limiting groove 21, after the shelf 40 moves forward a little distance, it will still be restricted at the current position by the fourth forming section 434 abutting against the rear end surface of the first rib 20, preventing the shelf 40 from continuously tilting and moving, and further reducing the probability of the shelf 40 completely falling off and hitting other components.

[0079] In some embodiments, as Figure 7 shown, the surface of the limiting protrusion 31 close to the open end 12 is inclined from the end close to the open end 12 to the end close to the fifth inner wall 18 in the direction close to the fourth inner wall 17, and the surface of the limiting protrusion 31 close to the fourth inner wall 17 is in limiting cooperation with the part of the shelf 40 close to the fifth inner wall 18.

[0080] It can be understood that the front surface of the limit projection 31 is designed to be inclined, which provides a smooth guide for the insertion of the shelf 40. When the user pushes the shelf 40 in or pulls it out, this inclined surface can reduce friction and resistance, making the operation smoother. At the same time, it also helps to protect the shelf 40 and the limit projection 31 from damage. The lower surface of the limit projection 31 is in limit cooperation with the upper surface of the second decorative strip 43. This design enables the shelf 40 to be firmly held in the predetermined position after being pushed in place, not only preventing the shelf 40 from shaking or shifting in the compartment 11, but also improving the efficiency and safety of the internal space utilization of the storage device. Overall, this design improves the user experience when using the storage device. The smooth guiding and stable limiting effect enable the user to access items more conveniently, and at the same time reduce damage or noise problems caused by improper operation, which helps to enhance the user's satisfaction with the storage device.

[0081] In the storage device provided by the embodiment of the present application, by arranging the front surface of the limit projection 31 to be inclined downward from front to back as described above, a smooth guide is provided for the insertion of the shelf 40. When the user pushes the shelf 40 in or pulls it out, this inclined surface can reduce friction and resistance, making the operation smoother, and also helps to protect the shelf 40 and the limit projection 31 from damage. At the same time, the shelf 40 can be firmly held in the predetermined position after being pushed in place, not only preventing the shelf 40 from shaking or shifting in the compartment 11, but also improving the efficiency and safety of the internal space utilization of the storage device. Moreover, the smooth guiding and stable limiting effect enable the user to access items more conveniently, and at the same time reduce damage or noise problems caused by improper operation, which helps to enhance the user's satisfaction.

[0082] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 shown, the second bile rib 30 includes: a first section 32 and a second section 33.

[0083] As Figures 7-8 shown, the first section 32 extends in the first direction, and the surface of the limit projection 31 close to the second inner wall 15 is connected to the surface of the first section 32 close to the fourth inner wall 17. The end of the second section 33 close to the second inner wall 15 is connected to the end of the first section 32 close to the fifth inner wall 18. The second section 33 extends in the third direction, and the surface of the limit projection 31 close to the fifth inner wall 18 is connected to the surface of the second section 33 close to the opening 12.

[0084] As Figure 5 and Figures 7-8As shown, the second bile rib 30 is provided at the rear of the inner tank 10. The first section 32 extends in the front-rear direction. The upper surface of the limiting protrusion 31 is connected to a part of the lower surface of the first section 32, and the front surface of the first section 32 is located in front of the front surface of the limiting protrusion 31. The second section 33 extends in the up-down direction. The rear surface of the limiting protrusion 31 is connected to a part of the front surface of the second section 33, and the lower surface of the second section 33 is located below the lower surface of the limiting protrusion 31. The corners of the first section 32 and the second section 33 are designed to be arc-shaped to play a role in guiding and reducing wear.

[0085] It can be understood that by making the first section 32 extend from front to back and the second section 33 extend from top to bottom, the second bile rib 30 provides support and limitation in different directions, and can further adapt to shelves 40 of different shapes and sizes. Moreover, the first section 32 and the second section 33 are integrally injection-molded, thereby reducing the material consumption, lowering the cost, and improving the production efficiency.

[0086] In some embodiments, as Figure 8 shown, the first section 32 and the first bile rib 20 are spaced apart and distributed in the third direction, and the front projection of the first section 32 in the third direction partially coincides with the front projection of the first bile rib 20 in the third direction. The second section 33 and the first bile rib 20 are spaced apart and distributed in the first direction, and the front projection of the second section 33 in the first direction partially coincides with the front projection of the first bile rib 20 in the first direction.

[0087] It can be understood that based on the fact that when the shelf 40 is disassembled, the front part of the shelf 40 needs to be lifted and pulled from back to front. When the front part of the shelf 40 is lifted, the rear part of the shelf 40 will also rotate downward with the contact point between the rear end of the shelf 40 and the first bile rib 20 as the center. And the first bile rib 20 and the second section 33 are separated from each other, which provides space support for the downward rotation of the rear part of the shelf 40 during disassembly. At the same time, through the design of the positional relationship between the first bile rib 20 and the second bile rib 30, the space utilization inside the storage device is optimized, enabling each component to be closely matched, improving the compactness of the overall structure, and preventing the shelf 40 from hitting other components above and the fifth inner wall 18 at the rear, further protecting other components in the upper space of the shelf 40 and the inner tank 10.

[0088] The storage device provided by the embodiment of the present application, through the design of the spatial position relationship among the above-mentioned first section 32, second section 33 and the first rib 20, provides spatial support for the rear part of the shelf 40 to rotate downward during disassembly, provides great convenience for the maintenance of the shelf 40, optimizes the space utilization inside the storage device, enables each component to cooperate closely, improves the compactness of the overall structure, and prevents the shelf 40 from hitting other components above and the fifth inner wall 18 at the rear, further protecting other components in the upper space of the shelf 40 and the inner container 10.

[0089] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 8 shown, the first inner wall 14 and the third inner wall 16 of the inner container 10 both recess outward to form avoidance grooves 13, and the first rib 20 and the second rib 30 are arranged on the outer edge of the avoidance grooves 13.

[0090] It can be understood that avoidance grooves 13 are formed on both the first inner wall 14 and the third inner wall 16 of the inner container 10, which can not only make at least part of the left and right sides of the shelf 40 placed in the avoidance grooves 13 and provide more stable support for the shelf 40, but also increase the storage space of the compartment 11 and accommodate items of different shapes and sizes or items that require additional space or special placement methods.

[0091] In addition, since the avoidance grooves 13 are recessed outward, there are gaps between part of the left and right sides of the shelf 40 and the first inner wall 14 and the third inner wall 16 respectively, which can reduce the impact on items caused by defrosting water flowing onto the shelf 40 when the inner container 10 is defrosted.

[0092] In this embodiment, the avoidance grooves 13 can be integrally injection-molded or cast with the inner container 10. The avoidance grooves 13 can be strip-shaped grooves, and the length direction of the strip-shaped grooves can be set along the front-back direction or approximately along the front-back direction.
