Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of hinges, and particularly relates to a hinge for a refrigerator drawer. Background Art
[0002] A hinge, also known as a hinge joint, is a mechanical device that connects two solids and allows relative rotation between them. It is widely used in doors, windows, furniture, etc., enabling door panels or lids to open and close relative to a fixed frame. There are various types of hinges, including ordinary hinges, spring hinges, concealed hinges, etc. Different types of hinges are suitable for different installation requirements and scenarios. In the use of refrigerators, the front and back sliding of the refrigerator drawer is mostly achieved through slide rails. However, most refrigerator drawers do not have a hinge structure during use, resulting in limited movement of the refrigerator drawer. After people pull the refrigerator drawer outwards, they cannot rotate and adjust it, and can only completely disassemble it for use. There is a lack of corresponding rotating structure and limiting structure. In actual life, people face various situations. For example, when local cleaning is required, the inability to rotate may make it inconvenient to pour out the dirt inside, resulting in inconvenient cleaning.
[0003] In summary, there are some problems in the use of refrigerator drawers without hinges, so it is hoped to propose a new structure to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] Aiming at the deficiencies of the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a hinge for a refrigerator drawer to solve the problems mentioned in the above background art.

The left hinge and the right hinge are symmetrically arranged along the center line of the refrigerator drawer. On the side of the rear end of the inner composition of the left hinge and the right hinge close to the refrigerator drawer, there are two groups of symmetrically distributed rotating columns I. Between the two groups of rotating columns I, there is a hinge connection component for connecting with the refrigerator drawer. The rotating column I and the hinge connection component are fixedly connected by a main screw. One end of the rotating column I away from the refrigerator drawer is fixedly connected with a rotating seat. The rear end of the rotating seat of the left hinge is fixedly connected with a limiting seat. A limiting member for limiting the hinge connection component is threadedly connected behind the limiting seat.
[0006] As a preferred implementation, on the side of the rear end of the inner composition of the left hinge and the right hinge away from the refrigerator drawer, there are mounting seats for connecting with the refrigerator slide rails. A mounting hole is vertically penetrated through the right side surface of the mounting seat, and a mounting screw for fixed installation is arranged inside the mounting hole, which can fixedly connect the mounting plate and the refrigerator slide rail through the mounting screw.
[0007] As a preferred embodiment, a hinge body is provided at one end of the mounting base close to the refrigerator drawer. The hinge body and the rotating seat are of an integral structure. A first connection hole is vertically penetrated through the upper surface of the first rotating column, and an internal connection thread is provided on the inner side surface of the first connection hole at the lower end.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment, a rotating block is provided at one end of the hinge connection assembly close to the left hinge and the right hinge. A rotating hole is vertically penetrated through the upper surface of the rotating block. The main screw passes through the first connection hole and the rotating hole and is in threaded connection with the internal connection thread. The rotating block can rotate horizontally around the main screw through the connection between the main screw and the first rotating column.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment, two groups of symmetrically distributed second rotating columns are provided at one end of the hinge connection assembly close to the refrigerator drawer. A second connection hole is vertically penetrated through the upper surface of the second rotating column. The second rotating column and the refrigerator drawer are connected by a pin shaft passing through the second connection hole.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment, a damping rotating shaft is provided between the second rotating column and the rotating block. The left hinge, the right hinge and the hinge connection assembly are all made of stainless steel material, and the refrigerator drawer can rotate vertically around the damping rotating shaft.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment, a limiting threaded hole is opened on the rear side surface of the limiting seat. A limiting stud is provided at the front end of the limiting member. An adjusting block is provided at the rear side of the limiting stud.
[0012] An abutting head is provided at the rear side of the adjusting block. A rubber layer is provided on the outer side surface of the abutting head. The limiting stud is in threaded connection with the limiting threaded hole. According to the need of the horizontal rotation of the refrigerator drawer, the limiting stud rotates inside the limiting threaded hole to adjust its extending length, and the rotation of the refrigerator drawer can be limited.
[0013] After adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: By adding the left hinge, the right hinge, the hinge connection assembly and the main screw, during use, the refrigerator drawer is connected to the two second rotating columns by a pin shaft, which can form a convenient disassembly and assembly structure between the refrigerator drawer and the hinge connection assembly. The refrigerator drawer can rotate horizontally through the connection between the hinge connection assembly and the first rotating column and rotate vertically through the damping rotating shaft, so as to facilitate the diversified use of the refrigerator drawer. By adding the left hinge and the limiting member, according to the need of the horizontal rotation of the refrigerator drawer, the limiting stud rotates inside the limiting threaded hole to adjust its extending length, and the rotation of the refrigerator drawer can be limited.
