Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of refrigeration systems, and particularly to a refrigerator. Background Art

[0002] The freezing drawer of a French refrigerator has a relatively large depth. In order to facilitate the taking and placing of the drawer, the existing refrigerators adopt a solution of sucking out the drawer by relying on magnets. The magnets are usually divided into two groups, one group is installed on the door body of the refrigerator, and the other group is installed on the refrigerator drawer. When the refrigerator door is opened, the refrigerator drawer is taken out by the suction force of the magnet, and the user does not need to pull out the drawer again. However, when there is a lot of storage in the drawer, the force required to suck out the drawer becomes relatively large. Therefore, the magnetic force of the two groups of magnets is set very strong. So when the drawer is pulled out as the refrigerator door is opened, there will be a problem that it is difficult to separate from the refrigerator door. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] In view of the above technical problems, the utility model provides a refrigerator.

[0004] A refrigerator, comprising: a box body and a door body, a refrigerating chamber is provided in the box body, the refrigerating chamber has an opening, the door body is rotatably connected to the box body and can open or close the opening; a drawer, installed in the refrigerating chamber and slidably connected to the refrigerating chamber; wherein, one of the drawer and the door body is installed with a first magnet assembly, and the other is installed with a second magnet assembly. The first magnet assembly includes a first magnet and a driving member, the driving member abuts against the first magnet, the first magnet can be configured to move from a first position to a second position in response to the driving of the driving member, and the second magnet assembly includes a second magnet, and the second magnet corresponds to the first magnet in the first position.

[0005] With such a setting, since the first magnet assembly and the second magnet assembly attract each other, when the door body rotates and opens, the drawer can be taken out through the attraction of the first magnet assembly and the second magnet assembly. The driving member abuts against the first magnet, so the driving member can drive the first magnet to move in position. And because the second magnet was originally in correspondence with the position of the first magnet in the first position, when the first magnet moves from the first position to the second position, the positions of the first magnet and the second magnet are no longer corresponding, the distance between the two increases, and the mutual attraction force is lost, and the connection between the door body and the drawer is released, which facilitates the mutual separation of the two.

[0006] In one embodiment, the first magnet assembly further includes a housing and a first elastic member. The first magnet and the first elastic member are both installed in the housing. A part of the driving member extends into the housing and abuts against the first magnet, causing the first magnet to move along a first direction. One end of the first elastic member is connected to the first magnet, and the other end abuts against the inner wall of the housing.

[0007] In one embodiment, a through hole for the driving member to extend into and reciprocate is formed in the housing, and the through hole is opened in a second direction, and the second direction is arranged at an angle to the first direction.

[0008] In one embodiment, the driving member includes an operating portion and an abutting portion. A part of the operating portion extends out of the housing. The abutting portion is located in the housing and abuts against the operating portion. An inclined surface is provided on the abutting portion, and the inclined surface is arranged at an angle to the second direction, and the inclined surface abuts against the first magnet.

[0009] In one embodiment, the first magnet assembly further includes a second elastic member. One end of the second elastic member abuts against the abutting portion, and the other end abuts against the inner wall of the housing.

[0010] In one embodiment, the operating portion includes a first section, a second section, and a third section connected in sequence. The first section is located outside the housing, a part of the second section extends into the housing, and the third section is located inside the housing. Along the first direction in which the first magnet moves, the width of the second section is smaller than that of the first section and the third section.

[0011] In one embodiment, along the first direction, a plurality of guide rods are provided on at least one inner wall of the housing. At least two of the guide rods extend along the first direction, and the two guide rods are spaced apart to form a guide groove, and the notch of the guide groove is correspondingly arranged with the position of the first magnet.

[0012] In one embodiment, along the first direction, positioning posts are provided on at least one inner wall of the housing. The positioning posts are located in the guide groove and extend along the first direction. The first elastic member is sleeved on the positioning posts; at least two of the guide rods are arranged in the guide groove and are spaced apart from the outer peripheral side of the first elastic member.

[0013] In one embodiment, an installation groove is formed in the door body, and at least a part of the first magnet assembly is arranged in the installation groove.

[0014] In one of the embodiments, the second magnet assembly further includes a mounting member, which is connected to the side wall of the drawer facing the door body. A cavity is formed in the mounting member, and the second magnet is disposed in the cavity.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, in the present utility model, by providing a movable first magnet and a driving member capable of driving the first magnet to move, since the second magnet was originally in a position corresponding to that of the first magnet at the first position, when the driving member causes the first magnet to move from the first position to the second position, the positions of the first magnet and the second magnet no longer correspond, the distance between the two increases, and the attractive force between them is lost, so that the door body and the drawer are disconnected, facilitating their mutual separation. Moreover, the structures of the first magnet assembly and the second magnet assembly are optimized, facilitating the reciprocating movement of the first magnet and making the moving trajectory more stable.

[0028] Please refer to Figures 1 - 5, the present utility model provides a refrigerator 100, which includes a box body 30, a door body 40, a drawer 50, a first magnet assembly 10 and a second magnet assembly 20. There is a refrigerating chamber 31 inside the box body 30, and the refrigerating chamber 31 has an opening 32. The door body 40 is rotatably connected to the box body 30 and can open or close the opening 32; the drawer 50 is installed in the refrigerating chamber 31 and is slidably connected to the refrigerating chamber 31; wherein, one of the drawer 50 and the door body 40 is installed with the first magnet assembly 10, and the other is installed with the second magnet assembly 20. The first magnet assembly 10 includes a first magnet 11 and a driving member 12. The driving member 12 abuts against the first magnet 11. The first magnet 11 can be configured to move from a first position to a second position in response to the driving of the driving member 12. The second magnet assembly 20 includes a second magnet 21, and the second magnet 21 corresponds to the first magnet 11 in the first position.

[0029] In this way, since the first magnet assembly 10 and the second magnet assembly 20 attract each other, when the door body 40 rotates and opens, the drawer 50 can be pulled out by the attraction of the first magnet assembly 10 and the second magnet assembly 20. The driving member 12 abuts against the first magnet 11, so the driving member 12 can drive the first magnet 11 to move. And because the second magnet 21 was originally in the position corresponding to the first magnet 11 in the first position, when the first magnet 11 moves from the first position to the second position, the positions of the first magnet 11 and the second magnet 21 no longer correspond, the distance between the two increases, and the attractive force between them is lost, so the door body 40 and the drawer 50 are disconnected, facilitating their separation from each other.

[0030] Exemplarily, please refer to Figure 5 , at this time, the first magnet 11 is in the first position, and at this time, the drawer 50 and the door body 40 are adsorbed together.

[0031] The first magnet assembly 10 further includes a housing 13 and a first elastic member 14. The first magnet 11 and the first elastic member 14 are both installed inside the housing 13. A part of the driving member 12 extends into the housing 13 and abuts against the first magnet 11 to move the first magnet 11 along a first direction. One end of the first elastic member 14 is connected to the first magnet 11, and the other end abuts against the inner wall of the housing 13. In this way, the driving member 12 can drive the first magnet 11 to move through its own movement by the abutting effect with the first magnet 11. The first elastic member 14 can make the first magnet 11 automatically return from the second position to the first position after the drawer 50 and the door body 40 have separated, so that it can continue to play a role in the next door opening.

[0032] In other embodiments, the driving member 12 can also be set as a motor. The motor enables the first magnet 11 to move through an actuating structure such as a push rod, and the above technical effects can also be achieved. The driving member 12 only needs to be able to cause the first magnet 11 to have a position offset, and is not limited to the above embodiments.

[0033] Furthermore, a perforation is formed on the housing 13 for the driving member 12 to extend into and reciprocate, and the perforation is opened in the second direction, and the second direction is arranged at an angle to the first direction. In this way, the perforation enables the user to operate the driving member 12 externally and operate the components located inside the housing 13, which is more convenient. And because the perforation is opened in the second direction, the driving member 12 can move along the second direction, and the second direction is arranged at an angle to the first direction, so the moving direction of the driving member 12 and the moving direction of the first magnet 11 can be set to be inconsistent, and its structural layout is more flexible.

[0034] In this embodiment, the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other, and the second direction is the direction perpendicular to the ground. Therefore, it is easier for the user to exert force when pressing the driving member 12 by hand. The driving member 12 moves along the second direction and abuts against the first magnet 11, pushing the first magnet 11 to move along the first direction, that is, the horizontal direction, so that the first magnet 11 moves from the first position to the second position. The second position and the first position are on the same horizontal line, and the second position is on one side of the first position in the horizontal direction.

[0035] In other embodiments, the first direction and the second direction can also be set to be the same, that is, the driving member 12 can directly push the first magnet 11 to move downward. Therefore, the first position and the second position are in the same vertical direction, and the first magnet 11 and the second magnet 21 can also be separated from attraction.

[0036] Furthermore, the driving member 12 includes an operating portion 121 and an abutting portion 122. A part of the operating portion 121 extends outside the housing 13, the abutting portion 122 is located inside the housing 13 and abuts against the operating portion 121. A slope 1221 is provided on the abutting portion 122, and the slope 1221 is arranged at an angle to the second direction, and the slope 1221 abuts against the first magnet 11. In this way, a part of the operating portion 121 is located outside the housing 13, so it is convenient for the user to press the operating portion 121, and the movement of the operating portion 121 drives the abutting portion 122 to move. The abutting portion 122 abuts against the first magnet 11 through the slope 1221. Therefore, when the abutting portion 122 moves along the second direction following the operating portion 121, the slope 1221 can convert its movement in the second direction into the movement of the first magnet 11 in the first direction. And as the driving member 12 moves in the second direction, each position of the slope 1221 can abut against the first magnet 11 without interference.

[0037] Furthermore, the first magnet assembly 10 further includes a second elastic member 15. One end of the second elastic member 15 abuts against the abutting portion 122, and the other end abuts against the inner wall of the housing 13. The second elastic member 15 can push the driving member 12 back to its initial position, facilitating the user's next operation.

[0038] Specifically, in this embodiment, a plurality of second elastic members 15 are provided, all of which are connected to the inner wall of the housing 13 and are arranged at equal intervals along the first direction. One end of each second elastic member 15 close to the abutting portion 122 abuts against the abutting portion 122. A plurality of positioning posts 17 are also protruded on the inner wall of the housing 13. Each second elastic member 15 is configured as a spring, which has a hollow and is sleeved on the positioning post 17. Two guide rods 16 are provided on both sides of each second elastic member 15 in the first direction, thereby reducing the sway of the second elastic member 15, preventing it from coming off, and being able to guide the direction of its compression.

[0039] The operation portion 121 includes a first section 1211, a second section 1212, and a third section 1213 that are connected in sequence. The first section 1211 is located outside the housing 13, a part of the second section 1212 extends into the housing 13, and the third section 1213 is located inside the housing 13. Along the first direction in which the first magnet 11 moves, the width of the second section 1212 is smaller than that of the first section 1211 and the third section 1213. In this way, the width of the second section 1212 is small and is used to move in the through hole. On the one hand, the contact area with the through hole is small and the friction is small, facilitating the user's operation. On the other hand, it can save material costs.

[0040] In this embodiment, the width of the second section 1212 in the first direction is much smaller than that of the first section 1211 and the third section 1213 to form a rod-shaped structure, while the first section 1211 and the third section 1213 are both plate-shaped structures and extend in the first direction. The large area of the first section 1211 can facilitate the user's operation, and the third section 1213 is used to abut against a plurality of second elastic members 15 and facilitate the setting of the inclined surface 1221 so that it can drive the first magnet 11 to move.

[0041] Along the first direction, a plurality of guide rods 16 are provided on at least one inner wall of the housing 13. At least two guide rods 16 extend along the first direction, and the two guide rods 16 are spaced apart to form a guide groove 161. The notch of the guide groove 161 is correspondingly arranged with the position of the first magnet 11. In this way, when the first magnet 11 moves along the first direction, it will enter the guide groove 161 and abut against the upper and lower two guide rods 16. The two guide rods 16 extend along the first direction, and thus can guide the first magnet 11 to move in the first direction, reducing the sway and position deviation of the first magnet 11.

[0042] Further, along the first direction, positioning posts 17 are provided on at least one inner wall of the housing 13. The positioning posts 17 are located in the guiding grooves 161 and extend along the first direction. The first elastic member 14 is sleeved on the positioning posts 17. At least two guiding rods 16 are provided in the guiding grooves 161 and are spaced from the outer peripheral side of the first elastic member 14. The principle of this setting is similar to that of the second elastic member 15. The positioning posts 17 can limit and fix the relative position of the first elastic member 14. As it is compressed or released by the movement of the first magnet 11, it can elongate or shorten along the first direction in which the positioning posts 17 extend. The two guiding rods 16 spaced from it can reduce the sway of the first elastic member 14 and prevent it from falling off.

[0043] Preferably, in this embodiment, two first magnets 11 are provided. Bevel surfaces 1221 are formed on both side surfaces of the abutting portion 122 in the first direction. The two first magnets 11 are respectively arranged at the two bevel surfaces 1221 of the abutting portion 122 and form an abutting effect with the bevel surfaces 1221. As the abutting portion 122 moves towards the second direction, the two bevel surfaces 1221 push the two first magnets 11 away from each other and both move towards both sides along the first direction. On the side of the two first magnets 11 away from the abutting portion 122, first elastic members 14 are provided. The two first elastic members 14 respectively abut against the first magnets 11, and the other sides respectively abut against the inner walls on both sides of the housing 13 in the first direction.

[0044] Similarly, positioning posts 17 and guiding rods 16 are provided on both inner walls of the housing 13. Their structural features and technical effects are similar to those described above and will not be elaborated here.

[0045] An installation groove is formed on the door body 40. At least a part of the first magnet assembly 10 is arranged in the installation groove. In this way, the installation groove can improve the connection strength between the first magnet assembly 10 and the door body 40, make its installation more stable, and reduce the space occupied by the first magnet assembly 10.

[0046] The second magnet assembly 20 further includes a mounting member. The mounting member is connected to the side wall of the drawer 50 facing the door body 40. A cavity is formed inside the mounting member, and the second magnet 21 is arranged in the cavity. In this way, the cavity facilitates the installation of the second magnet 21 and prevents the second magnet 21 from falling off.

[0047] In this embodiment, corresponding to the two first magnets 11, the second magnet assembly 20 includes two mounting members. The two mounting members are both connected to the door body 40, and second magnets 21 are arranged in both mounting members to improve the adsorption force.

[0048] Compared with the prior art, the utility model is provided with a movable first magnet 11 and a driving member 12 capable of driving the first magnet 11 to move. Since the second magnet 21 was originally in correspondence with the position of the first magnet 11 at the first position, when the driving member 12 causes the first magnet 11 to move from the first position to the second position, the positions of the first magnet 11 and the second magnet 21 are no longer in correspondence, the distance between the two increases, and the attractive force between them is lost, so that the door body 40 and the drawer 50 are disconnected, facilitating their mutual separation. Moreover, the structures of the first magnet assembly 10 and the second magnet assembly 20 are optimized to facilitate the reciprocating movement of the first magnet 11 and make the moving trajectory more stable.

[0049] The technical features of the above-described embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity of description, 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, it should be considered as the scope recorded in this specification.

[0050] The above-described embodiments only represent several implementation manners of the utility model, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the utility model, several modifications and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be subject to the appended claims.
