[0051] In an embedded furniture, a refrigeration device can be embedded in a cabinet. Among them, a door body 20 of the refrigeration device is rotatably connected to a cabinet body 10 of the refrigeration device. The door body 20 of the refrigeration device can be used to cover an accommodation space inside the cabinet body 10, and a decorative panel 30 can be used to cover the cabinet body of the cabinet, so that the outer surface of the cabinet is combined with the home decoration style.
[0052] However, as the door body 20 of the refrigeration device is opened, the decorative panel 30 is prone to interference and collision with the side wall of the cabinet, resulting in a poor use experience of the embedded refrigerator. Therefore, this application proposes a door assembly of a refrigeration device to solve the defect that the refrigeration device is prone to interference with the side wall of the cabinet during the door opening process, affecting the use experience.
[0053] The following will be combined with Figures 1 to 4 Describe the sliding door mechanism of the refrigeration device, the door assembly of the refrigeration device, and the refrigeration device of this application.
[0054] According to the sliding door mechanism of the refrigeration device proposed by the embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 1 , the sliding door mechanism of the refrigeration device includes a mounting seat 100, a rope 200, a first slider 300, a second slider 400, and a connecting rod 500. The mounting seat 100 is adapted to be mounted to the door body 20 of the refrigeration device. A first guide member 110 and a second guide member 120 are provided on the mounting seat 100; the rope 200 is in a closed loop, and the rope 200 is wound around the first guide member 110 and the second guide member 120; the first slider 300 and the second slider 400 are slidably connected to the mounting seat 100. The first slider 300 and the second slider 400 are respectively connected to opposite sides of the rope 200, and the moving directions of the first slider 300 and the second slider are opposite. The second slider 400 is adapted to be mounted to the decorative panel 30; one end of the connecting rod 500 is rotatably connected to the first slider 300, and the other end is adapted to be rotatably connected to the cabinet body 10 of the refrigeration device.
[0055] For the sliding door mechanism of the refrigeration device according to the embodiments of the present application, when the decorative panel 30 is pulled open by the user to open the door, the door body 20 rotates relative to the box body 10, the connecting rod 500 rotates, and drives the first slider 300 to move. The second slider 400 is driven to move by the rope 200, and the moving direction is opposite to that of the first slider 300, so as to realize the relative movement between the decorative panel 30 and the door body 20, ensure that the decorative panel 30 connected to the rope 200 can be normally closed, avoid interference between the decorative panel 30 and the door body 20, and thus improve the user experience.
[0056] It can be understood that the sliding door mechanism of the refrigeration device according to the embodiments of the present application ensures the smooth movement of the door body 20 and the decorative panel 30 during opening and closing by ingeniously designing the interaction between the rope 200, the sliders and the connecting rod 500, avoids the interference phenomenon that may occur in the sliding door mechanisms of traditional refrigeration devices, and significantly improves the user's convenience and comfort.
[0057] The closed-loop rope 200 ensures the continuity of the sliding, and also reduces the force-bearing burden of the first slider 300 and the second slider 400 through the tension distribution of the closed-loop rope 200, extending the service life of the overall mechanism. The guiding member can make the moving path of the rope 200 clear and stable.
[0058] By adjusting parameters such as the winding method of the rope 200, the installation position of the slider, and the length of the connecting rod 500, the sliding door mechanism of the refrigeration device can flexibly adapt to door bodies 20 and decorative panels 30 of different sizes and weights, meeting the requirements of diverse application scenarios.
[0059] According to an embodiment of the present application, the first guiding member 110 and the second guiding member 120 are pulleys, and the pulleys are rotatably arranged on the mounting seat 100.
[0060] It can be understood that the first guiding member 110 and the second guiding member 120 being pulleys can significantly reduce the friction between the rope 200 and the guiding member during movement, enabling the rope 200 to be smoothly wound and moved, ensuring a smooth transition of the door body 20 and the decorative panel 30 during opening and closing, and improving the user experience.
[0061] It can be understood that high-strength and low-friction coefficient materials can be selected as the manufacturing materials of the pulleys, such as the pulleys being stainless steel pulleys, ceramic pulleys or special alloy pulleys, etc.
[0062] In order to reduce the friction and wear between the rope 200 and the pulleys, the contact surface of the rope 200 can be specially treated, such as coating a wear-resistant coating or using a rope 200 sleeve made of special materials, etc.
[0063] According to an embodiment of the present application, the first guide member 110 and the second guide member 120 form a limiting card slot 130, and the rope 200 is adapted to slide along the limiting card slot 130.
[0064] It can be understood that by providing the limiting card slot 130 on the first guide member 110 and the second guide member 120, the rope 200 is restricted to slide within a specific path, which greatly improves the guiding accuracy of the movement of the rope 200. It ensures that the rope 200 will not deviate from the predetermined trajectory when stressed, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the sliding door mechanism of the refrigeration equipment. Moreover, the presence of the limiting card slot 130 makes the installation of the rope 200 more convenient, and only the rope 200 needs to be placed in the card slot.
[0065] According to an embodiment of the present application, the first slider 300 is provided with a mounting hole 410 along its sliding direction, and the rope 200 is threaded through the mounting hole 410 and connected to the first slider 300.
[0066] By providing the mounting hole 410 along the sliding direction of the first slider 300 and threading the rope 200 through the mounting hole 410 and connecting it to the first slider 300, this design enhances the connection stability between the rope 200 and the first slider 300. The rope 200 is fixed inside the first slider 300, and when the first slider 300 moves, the rope 200 can smoothly follow its movement without being subjected to additional resistance or interference. This ensures the smoothness and stability of the sliding door mechanism of the refrigeration equipment during operation, improves the user experience, reduces the risk of the rope 200 falling off or shifting due to external forces, and thus ensures the normal operation of the sliding door mechanism of the refrigeration equipment.
[0067] According to an embodiment of the present application, the second slider 400 is provided with a mounting hole 410 along its sliding direction, and the rope 200 is threaded through the mounting hole 410 and connected to the second slider 400.
[0068] By providing the mounting hole 410 along the sliding direction of the second slider 400 and threading the rope 200 through the mounting hole 410 and connecting it to the second slider 400, this design enhances the connection stability between the rope 200 and the second slider 400. The rope 200 is fixed inside the second slider 400, and when the second slider 400 moves, the rope 200 can smoothly follow its movement without being subjected to additional resistance or interference. This ensures the smoothness and stability of the sliding door mechanism of the refrigeration equipment during operation, improves the user experience, reduces the risk of the rope 200 falling off or shifting due to external forces, and thus ensures the normal operation of the sliding door mechanism of the refrigeration equipment.
[0069] According to an embodiment of the present application, at least one of the first slider 300 and the second slider 400 is detachably connected to the rope 200.
[0070] It is understandable that the design of the detachable connection between the first slider 300 and the second slider 400 increases the flexibility of the sliding door mechanism of the refrigeration device. When maintenance or replacement of the slider is required, the operation can be carried out more conveniently. There is no need to disassemble the sliding door mechanism of the entire refrigeration device, and only the problematic slider needs to be simply disassembled and replaced, greatly reducing the maintenance cost and time.
[0071] According to an embodiment of the present application, the sliding door mechanism of the refrigeration device further includes a sliding member 600. A first sliding groove 140 is formed by the inward depression of the side portion of the mounting seat 100. The sliding member 600 is slidably disposed in the first sliding groove 140, and the sliding member 600 is connected to the second slider 400. The cooperation between the sliding member 600 and the first sliding groove 140 restricts the shaking and offset during its movement, thereby ensuring the smoothness and reliability of the second slider 400 during operation.
[0072] In addition to forming the first sliding groove 140 on the side portion of the mounting seat 100, a second sliding groove may also be provided on the top of the mounting seat 100.
[0073] According to an embodiment of the present application, a second sliding groove is formed by the inward depression of the top of the mounting seat 100. The second slider 400 is provided with a limiting portion, and the limiting portion is clamped in the second sliding groove. The cooperation between the sliding member 600 and the second sliding groove restricts the shaking and offset during its movement, thereby ensuring the smoothness and reliability of the second slider 400 during operation.
[0074] According to an embodiment of the present application, a ball 800 is rotatably installed on the sliding member 600. During the process of the sliding member 600 sliding along the sliding groove, the ball 800 is adapted to roll along the groove wall of the first sliding groove 140.
[0075] By rotatably installing the ball 800 on the sliding member 600, during the process of the sliding member 600 sliding along the sliding groove, the ball 800 can directly contact and roll along the groove wall of the sliding groove instead of the sliding member 600. This rolling contact method can significantly reduce the frictional resistance compared with the sliding contact, because the resistance of rolling friction is much smaller than that of sliding friction. Therefore, the operation of the sliding door mechanism of the refrigeration device will be smoother, and the energy consumption and wear can be reduced.
[0076] According to an embodiment of the present application, it further includes a fixed seat 700. One end of the connecting rod 500 away from the first slider 300 is rotatably installed on the fixed seat 700, and the fixed seat 700 is used for installation to the box body 10 of the refrigeration device.
[0077] It can be understood that when the fixing base 700 is installed, the fixing base 700 only needs to be firmly installed on the box body 10 of the refrigeration equipment, and then components such as the connecting rod 500 are sequentially connected to the fixing base 700 and the first slider 300. To ensure the firmness and stability of the connection, fasteners such as bolts and nuts can be used to fix the fixing base 700 on the box body 10, and appropriate positioning structures and anti-loosening devices can be set.
[0078] One end of the connecting rod 500 away from the first slider 300 is rotatably installed on the fixing base 700. The fixing base 700 serves as the support point of the connecting rod 500, and can effectively disperse and bear various forces and torques generated during the opening and closing processes of the sliding door, thereby avoiding structural damage or deformation caused by stress concentration.
[0079] The door assembly according to the second aspect embodiment of the present application includes a door body 20, the sliding door mechanism of the refrigeration equipment described above, and a decorative panel 30. The first slider 300 is installed on the door body 20; the decorative panel 30 is connected to the second slider 400.
[0080] For the door assembly according to the embodiment of the present application, when the decorative panel 30 is pulled open by the user to open the door, the door body 20 rotates relative to the box body 10. The door body 20 drives the connecting rod 500 to rotate, and drives the first slider 300 to move. The second slider 400 is driven by the rope 200 to move, and the moving direction is opposite to that of the first slider 300, thereby realizing the relative movement between the decorative panel 30 and the door body 20, ensuring that the decorative panel 30 connected to the connecting rope 200 can be normally closed, avoiding interference between the decorative panel 30 and the door body 20, and thus improving the user experience.
[0081] It should be noted that since the refrigeration equipment of the present application includes the sliding door mechanism of the refrigeration equipment described above, it has all the technical effects of the sliding door mechanism of the refrigeration equipment described above, and will not be elaborated here.
[0082] For the refrigeration equipment according to the third aspect embodiment of the present application, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the refrigeration equipment includes a box body 10 and the door assembly described above. The box body 10 forms an accommodation space, and the door assembly is rotatably arranged on the box body 10 to open or close the accommodation space.
[0083] It can be understood that the door assembly is arranged on the box body 10 through a rotating mechanism (such as a hinge, a rotating shaft, etc.). By rotating, the accommodation space can be opened or closed, which is convenient for users to store and retrieve items. When rotating, relative displacement can occur between the decorative panel 30 and the door body 20, avoiding interference during the opening and closing of the door assembly, and greatly improving the user experience.
[0084] It should be noted that since the refrigeration equipment of the present application includes the above-mentioned door assembly, it has all the technical effects of the above-mentioned door assembly, which will not be elaborated here.
[0085] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present application, rather than limiting the present application. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that various combinations, modifications or equivalent replacements of the technical solutions of the present application do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present application, and should all be covered by the scope of the claims of the present application.
