Those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model in combination with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0025] In the description of the present utility model, reference to "one embodiment" or "some embodiments" etc. means that in one or more embodiments of the present utility model, specific features, structures or characteristics described in connection with that embodiment are included. Thus, statements such as "in one embodiment", "in some embodiments", "in other some embodiments", "in still other embodiments" etc. that appear in different places in this specification do not necessarily all refer to the same embodiment, but mean "one or more but not all embodiments", unless otherwise specifically emphasized in other ways.

[0026] This application provides a refrigerator with a novel door lock structure 5, including a cabinet 1 and a door body 2. A receiving groove 3 is provided at the bottom of the cabinet 1. The receiving groove 3 is used to receive a refrigeration component (not shown). A heat dissipation plate 4 is provided on one side of the receiving groove 3 close to the door body 2. Ventilation holes 401 are provided on the heat dissipation plate 4. A door lock structure 5 is provided at the bottom of the door body 2 close to the cabinet 1. When the door is closed, the door lock structure 5 is snap-connected to the ventilation holes 401.

[0027] The door lock structure 5 is hidden at the position of the bottom of the door body 2 close to the cabinet 1 and is snap-connected to the ventilation holes 401 on the heat dissipation plate 4, making the door lock not easily directly touched or pried open from the outside, thus improving the safety of the refrigerator. In addition, the hidden door lock avoids the visual abruptness of the traditional door lock directly exposed on the door body 2 or the cabinet 1, making the appearance of the refrigerator more concise and smooth, and enhancing the overall aesthetics.

[0028] The design of the ventilation holes 401 on the heat dissipation plate 4 can effectively promote the dissipation of the heat generated by the refrigeration component, ensure the stability of the internal temperature of the refrigerator, and at the same time extend the service life of the refrigeration component.

[0029] In this application, the ventilation holes 401 on the heat dissipation plate 4 are not only used for heat dissipation but also serve as the buckling points of the door lock structure 5, realizing the dual-functional integration of the door lock and heat dissipation, reducing the number of components, simplifying the internal structure of the refrigerator, and improving the space utilization rate.

[0030] It should be noted that the door lock structure 5 and the refrigeration components can both adopt structural elements on the market, and their working principles are common knowledge in the art. This application does not make specific limitations here.

[0031] Optionally, the refrigeration component includes a compressor, a condenser, an evaporator, a throttle valve, etc. Through the coordinated operation of components such as the compressor, condenser, evaporator, and throttle valve, a refrigeration cycle is realized. Specifically, the liquid refrigerant vaporizes into low-temperature and low-pressure steam after absorbing the heat of the object to be cooled in the evaporator; the steam is sucked into the compressor and compressed into high-temperature and high-pressure steam, which is then discharged into the condenser; in the condenser, the steam releases heat to the cooling medium and condenses into liquid refrigerant; the liquid refrigerant passes through the throttle valve to throttle and depressurize and then re-enters the evaporator for the next cycle.

[0032] In some embodiments, an installation groove 6 is provided on one side of the bottom of the door body 2 close to the box body 1, the door lock structure 5 is arranged in the installation groove 6, and a keyhole is opened at the connection between the installation groove 6 and the door lock structure 5. The user can insert a key through the keyhole to connect the key with the door lock structure, thereby controlling the opening and closing of the door lock.

[0033] The hidden design of the door lock structure 5 reduces the obtrusiveness on the appearance of the refrigerator, making the overall lines of the refrigerator smoother and the appearance more concise and beautiful. At the same time, preferably, the keyhole is located at the bottom of the door body 2, which is more coordinated with the appearance of the refrigerator and does not damage the overall aesthetic feeling.

[0034] In some embodiments, the door lock structure 5 includes a lock tongue 501, and a buckling groove 502 is provided on one side of the lock tongue 501 close to the box body 1, and the buckling groove 502 is used for buckling connection with the ventilation hole 401.

[0035] The buckling connection between the buckling groove 502 and the ventilation hole 401 makes the refrigerator door more stable and reliable when closed and not easily opened accidentally. Even if it is subjected to a certain external force impact, as long as the buckling connection remains intact, the refrigerator door can remain closed, thereby protecting the safety of the food and items inside the refrigerator.

[0036] In some embodiments, a plurality of ventilation holes 401 are provided on the heat dissipation plate 4, and each ventilation hole 401 is arranged at equal intervals.

[0037] The ventilation holes 401 allow air to flow smoothly between the heat dissipation plates 4, effectively removing the heat generated by the refrigeration components (such as compressors, condensers, etc.). The evenly spaced ventilation holes 401 ensure uniform air flow across the surface of the heat dissipation plates 4, avoiding local overheating and thus improving the overall heat dissipation efficiency.

[0038] Although the main function of the ventilation holes 401 is heat dissipation and ventilation, their evenly spaced arrangement can enhance their aesthetic appeal and make them harmonize with the overall design style of the refrigerator.

[0039] In some embodiments, a number of the ventilation holes 401 on the heat dissipation plate 4 are arranged in two rows.

[0040] The layout of the two rows of ventilation holes 401 helps to achieve more directional air flow management. By reasonably designing the size, spacing, and arrangement of the rows of the ventilation holes 401, the air can be guided to flow along a specific path, more effectively removing the heat from the heat dissipation plate 4, reducing turbulent flow and eddy currents, and improving the heat dissipation efficiency.

[0041] In some embodiments, a placement groove 7 is provided at the top of the door body 2. The placement groove 7 can be used to place small items such as door keys.

[0042] After unlocking the door, the user can place the door key in the placement groove 7, eliminating the inconvenience of holding the key when taking items from the refrigerator, thus greatly enhancing the convenience of use.

[0043] Although the main function of the placement groove 7 is to store keys, the user can also customize it according to their own needs and preferences. For example, some decorations or small storage boxes can be placed in the placement groove 7 to increase its practicality and aesthetic appeal.

[0044] In some embodiments, a number of partitions 8 are provided in the placement groove 7.

[0045] The partitions 8 divide the interior of the placement groove 7 into multiple small areas, enabling the user to make more rational use of the space. Different small items, such as door keys, small remote controls, sticky notes, etc., can be placed in their respective areas, avoiding chaotic stacking. Each partition 8 can be regarded as an independent storage space, and the user can arrange the use of each partition 8 according to their own needs and usage habits, making it more convenient and quick to access items.

[0046] The above-described embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present invention, and should all be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
