[0039] To make the purpose, implementation manners, and advantages of the present application clearer, the following will clearly and completely describe the exemplary implementation manners of the present application in conjunction with the drawings in the exemplary embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described exemplary embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments.

[0040] It should be noted that the brief description of the terms in this application is only for the convenience of understanding the following described embodiments, rather than intending to limit the embodiments of this application. Unless otherwise specified, these terms should be understood in their ordinary and common meanings.

[0041] In addition, the terms "comprising" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover but not exclusively include. For example, a product or device comprising a series of components does not necessarily have to be limited to those components clearly listed, but may include other components not clearly listed or inherent to these products or devices.

[0042] A refrigerator is a refrigeration device that keeps the food or other items in its storage compartment at a constant low temperature.

[0043] In the prior art, the main function of the refrigerator storage compartment is to extend the freshness time of food through a low-temperature environment. The low temperature can slow down the growth rate of bacteria and other microorganisms, thereby delaying the spoilage and deterioration of food. The storage compartment is usually used to store fresh food and beverages, such as fruits, vegetables, dairy products, and cooked foods, etc.

[0044] Although the low-temperature environment can significantly slow down the growth of microorganisms, it cannot completely prevent their reproduction. Some cold-resistant bacterial strains can still grow slowly at low temperatures, which means that even in the refrigerator, food may deteriorate over time.

[0045] In order to inhibit the growth of bacteria and other microorganisms, antibacterial materials are currently often added during the manufacturing process of the refrigerator storage compartment and shelves. For example, silver ion antibacterial materials can be applied to the inner wall and shelves of the refrigerator by coating or embedding.

[0046] However, the effect of the antibacterial material may weaken over time and needs to be replaced or reprocessed regularly. In order to maintain the antibacterial effect, it may be necessary to reprocess the refrigerator or replace the antibacterial material regularly, which increases the maintenance cost and complexity. At the same time, different types of antibacterial materials may be incompatible with other materials of the refrigerator (such as plastics, metals, etc.), resulting in a decline in material performance or structural damage.

[0047] Therefore, the existing refrigerators have problems such as poor sterilization effect and insufficient intelligent level.

[0048] In view of this, an embodiment of the present application provides a refrigerator. The refrigerator includes a box body, a light-emitting shelf, a camera, a sterilization component, and an oxygen detection component. The box body is provided with a storage compartment. A power supply unit is arranged in the storage compartment. The light-emitting shelf is arranged in the storage compartment. The light-emitting shelf is connected to the inner wall of the storage compartment. The light-emitting shelf has a light-emitting component. The camera is arranged between two adjacent light-emitting shelves. The sterilization component is arranged in the storage compartment. The oxygen detection component is arranged in the storage compartment. The oxygen detection component is configured to detect the oxygen concentration in the storage compartment. The camera, the sterilization component, and the oxygen detection component are all electrically connected to the power supply unit. The camera, the light-emitting component, the sterilization component, and the oxygen detection component are all electrically connected to the control component. In the present application, by electrically connecting the camera, the light-emitting component, the sterilization component, and the oxygen detection component to the control component, during the operation of the refrigerator, the camera can capture images of the food ingredients in real time, the oxygen detection component can detect the oxygen concentration in the storage compartment in real time, and the control component can obtain the shooting results of the camera and the detection results of the oxygen detection component in real time. At the same time, the control component can judge the state of the food ingredients located in the storage compartment according to the shooting results and the detection results, and control the light-emitting component to emit light of a specified wavelength for targeted fresh-keeping of the food ingredients and control the sterilization component to sterilize the storage compartment, so as to ensure the freshness of the food ingredients, avoid damage to the food ingredients caused by bacteria, etc., extend the shelf life of the food ingredients, and improve the intelligent level of the refrigerator.

[0049] The technical solution of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. These specific embodiments may be combined with each other or exist independently. For the same or similar concepts or processes, they may not be repeated in some embodiments. The embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the drawings.

Figure 5 Showing the structural schematic of the light-emitting shelf 200, the sterilization component 400, and the camera 300 of the refrigerator provided by the embodiment of the present application.

[0051] An embodiment of the present application provides a refrigerator. Refer to Figures 1 to 5As shown in the figure, the refrigerator includes a box body 100, a light-emitting shelf 200, a camera 300, a sterilization component 400, and an oxygen detection component 500. The box body 100 is provided with a storage compartment. A power supply unit is arranged in the storage compartment. The light-emitting shelf 200 is arranged in the storage compartment. The light-emitting shelf 200 is connected to the inner wall of the storage compartment. The light-emitting shelf 200 is provided with a light-emitting member 220. The camera 300 is arranged between two adjacent light-emitting shelves 200. The sterilization component 400 is arranged in the storage compartment. The oxygen detection component 500 is arranged in the storage compartment. The oxygen detection component 500 is configured to detect the oxygen concentration in the storage compartment. The camera 300, the sterilization component 400, and the oxygen detection component 500 are all electrically connected to the power supply unit. The camera 300, the light-emitting member 220, the sterilization component 400, and the oxygen detection component 500 are all electrically connected to the control member 600.

[0052] Exemplarily, for the convenience of description, the food materials mentioned in the subsequent part of this application refer to fruit and vegetable food materials.

[0053] Exemplarily, during the operation of the refrigerator, the power supply unit supplies power to the camera 300, the sterilization component 400, and the oxygen detection component 500. At this time, the camera 300 takes pictures of the food materials in real time, and the oxygen detection component 500 detects the oxygen concentration in the storage compartment in real time. At the same time, the control member 600 obtains the shooting results of the camera 300 and the detection results of the oxygen detection component 500 in real time. The control member 600 judges the state of the food materials located in the storage compartment according to the shooting results and the detection results, and controls the light-emitting member 220 to emit light with a specified wavelength to perform targeted fresh-keeping on the food materials, and controls the sterilization component 400 to sterilize the storage compartment, so as to ensure the freshness of the food materials and avoid damage to the food materials caused by bacteria and the like.

[0054] Exemplarily, fruit and vegetable food materials will lose moisture during storage, mainly through evaporation and transpiration. The loss of moisture will cause the shrinkage of fruit and vegetable cells, thereby reducing the overall volume of the fruits and vegetables.

[0055] Exemplarily, chlorophyll is the main green pigment in fruits and vegetables. During storage, chlorophyll will gradually degrade, resulting in a gradual fading of the green color. Carotenoids are the main yellow and orange pigments in fruits and vegetables. During storage, carotenoids will also gradually degrade, resulting in a fading of the color. That is to say, during the storage of fruits and vegetables, the color of the fruits and vegetables will change.

[0056] The refrigerator provided by the embodiment of the present application is provided with a camera 300. The camera 300 is used to take pictures of the food materials in real time and transmit the images of the food materials to the control member 600. In this way, the control member 600 can judge the changes in the volume and color of the food materials within a certain period of time, and perform targeted fresh-keeping on the food materials by controlling the light-emitting parameters of the light-emitting member 220, so as to improve the storage freshness of the food materials.

[0057] Exemplarily, the imaging component 300 can be a small digital camera or an imaging sensor. The shooting end of the imaging component 300 faces the storage room. The imaging component 300 is capable of capturing the food material images of the food materials in the storage room. The imaging component 300 converts the captured optical signal into a digital image signal (i.e., the food material image) and transmits it to the control component 600 for processing.

[0058] Exemplarily, the light-emitting component 220 can be an LED lamp. The LED lamp is capable of emitting lights with different wavelengths and intensities.

[0059] Exemplarily, when fruits and vegetables are stored in the storage room, lights with different wavelengths have different effects on the fruits and vegetables stored in the refrigerator. For example, blue light can inhibit the generation of ethylene in fruits and vegetables, and ethylene is a gas that promotes the ripening of fruits and vegetables. By reducing the generation of ethylene, the ripening process of fruits and vegetables can be delayed, and their shelf life can be extended. At the same time, blue light has a certain antibacterial effect, which can inhibit the growth of bacteria and molds, reduce the microbial contamination on the surface of fruits and vegetables, and maintain their freshness. Red light is one of the main light sources for photosynthesis, which can promote photosynthesis in fruits and vegetables, increase the accumulation of sugars and nutrients, and maintain the nutritional value and taste of fruits and vegetables. Green light can enhance the color performance of fruits and vegetables, making them look fresher and more attractive, and enhancing the visual experience of users.

[0060] By controlling the light-emitting component 220 to emit lights with specific wavelengths, targeted fresh-keeping of fruits and vegetables can be carried out according to the actual state of the fruits and vegetables.

[0061] Exemplarily, during the storage process, fruits and vegetables as food materials will carry out respiration, consuming oxygen and producing carbon dioxide and water. Fresh fruits and vegetables have a stronger respiration and consume more oxygen. When fruits and vegetables start to spoil, the respiration will weaken and the oxygen consumption will decrease. At the same time, some harmful gases may be produced during the spoilage process, such as ethylene, and these gases will also affect the freshness of fruits and vegetables. That is to say, the oxygen concentration in the storage room can reflect the freshness of fruits and vegetables as food materials.

[0062] By setting the oxygen detection component 500 and electrically connecting the oxygen detection component 500 and the control component 600, the oxygen detection component 500 obtains the oxygen concentration in the storage room in real time and transmits it to the control component 600. The control component 600 judges the state of the food materials according to the oxygen concentration parameter and the shooting result of the imaging component 300, and controls the light-emitting parameters of the light-emitting component 220 and the sterilization parameters of the sterilization component 400 to carry out targeted fresh-keeping of the food materials and improve the storage freshness of the food materials.

[0063] Exemplarily, the control component 600 can be a controller, and the controller is used to comprehensively understand the environmental state of the storage room to ensure that the food materials are in the best storage conditions.

[0064] Exemplarily, the oxygen detection component 500 can be an oxygen concentration detector.

[0065] In some embodiments, the sterilization component 400 is disposed on the inner wall of the refrigerator.

[0066] In other embodiments, the sterilization component 400 is disposed on the light-emitting shelf 200.

[0067] As an implementable embodiment, referring to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the number of the light-emitting shelves 200 is multiple. Along the height direction of the refrigerator, the multiple light-emitting shelves 200 are sequentially and spacedly arranged. A storage area is formed between adjacent light-emitting shelves 200.

[0068] The number of the imaging members 300 is multiple. The multiple imaging members 300 are respectively disposed on the multiple light-emitting shelves 200 in a one-to-one correspondence. The shooting end of the imaging member 300 faces the storage area.

[0069] Exemplarily, the light-emitting shelf 200 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the storage compartment. A plurality of horizontal slide rails are respectively fixed on both sides of the inner wall of the storage compartment, and a plurality of positioning holes are provided on each slide rail. Sliders are fixed on both sides of the light-emitting shelf 200, and positioning pins are provided on the sliders. The user can slide the shelf to move the slider on the slide rail and fix the position of the shelf by inserting the positioning pin into the positioning hole of the slide rail. In this way, by providing a plurality of horizontal slide rails, it is convenient for the user to adjust the position of the light-emitting shelf 200, and further flexibly adjust the size of the storage area formed between adjacent light-emitting shelves 200 to adapt to ingredients of different sizes and shapes, optimizing the utilization of the storage space. At the same time, different storage areas can be used to store different types of ingredients, facilitating classification management and access.

[0070] Exemplarily, by providing a plurality of imaging members 300 and respectively disposing the plurality of imaging members 300 on the light-emitting shelves 200 at different heights, real-time shooting of multiple positions in the storage area can be achieved to obtain information on the ingredients located at any position in the storage compartment.

Figure 7 Structural schematic of the light-emitting shelf 200, the sterilization component 400, and the imaging member 300 of the refrigerator provided by the embodiment of the present application Figure 3 . Figure 8 Structural schematic diagram of the light-emitting shelf 200 of the refrigerator provided by the embodiment of the present application.

[0072] As an implementable embodiment, referring to Figure 8As shown, the light-emitting shelf 200 includes a shelf body 210, a first connection part 211, and a second connection part 212. The first connection part 211 is provided at both ends of the shelf body 210. The first connection part 211 is electrically connected to the power supply part.

[0073] The second connection part 212 is provided in the middle section of the shelf body 210. The imaging member 300 is electrically connected to the second connection part 212.

[0074] Exemplarily, during the operation of the refrigerator, the power supply part delivers electrical energy to the light-emitting member 220 encapsulated in the light-emitting shelf 200 through the first connection part 211, so that the light-emitting member 220 emits light. At the same time, the first connection part 211 delivers electrical energy to the second connection part 212 for the use of the imaging member 300.

[0075] It can be understood that the second connection part 212 can also supply power to the oxygen detection member 500 and the sterilization component 400.

[0076] Exemplarily, the first connection part 211 can be a conductive plug.

[0077] Exemplarily, the second connection part 212 can be a conductive plug.

[0078] As an implementable embodiment, referring to Figures 5 to 8 As shown, the sterilization component 400 includes an ion sterilization member 410. The ion sterilization member 410 is electrically connected to the control member 600. The ion sterilization member 410 is provided in the storage compartment. The ion sterilization member 410 is used to generate sterilizing ions.

[0079] The ion sterilization member 410 includes a hydrogen ion sterilization part and a silver ion sterilization part. Silver ions and hydrogen ions have strong sterilization capabilities. Silver ions can destroy the cell walls and protein structures of bacteria, thereby killing bacteria; hydrogen ions produce strongly oxidizing substances through redox reactions, further enhancing the sterilization effect. By providing a silver ion sterilization part and a hydrogen ion sterilization part in the storage compartment, the silver ion sterilization part and the hydrogen ion sterilization part can continuously generate silver ions and hydrogen ions, forming a long-term stable sterilization environment inside the refrigerator. This continuous sterilization ability helps prevent the growth and reproduction of bacteria inside the refrigerator, maintaining a long-term hygienic environment. In addition, ion sterilization sterilizes through physical and chemical reactions and does not require the use of any chemical agents, so no harmful chemical residues will be left inside the refrigerator, ensuring the safety of food. Furthermore, the ion sterilization member 410 not only has a sterilization function but can also degrade harmful gases and odors inside the refrigerator, such as volatile organic compounds like formaldehyde and acetaldehyde, thereby improving the air quality inside the refrigerator and keeping the food fresh.

[0080] Exemplarily, the hydrogen ion sterilization part includes a plasma generator.

[0081] Exemplarily, the silver ion sterilization unit includes a silver ion releaser.

[0082] Figure 9 The structure schematic diagram of the light-emitting shelf 200 of the refrigerator provided in the embodiment of the present application is schematically shown. Figure 1 . Figure 10 The structure schematic diagram of the light-emitting shelf 200 of the refrigerator provided in the embodiment of the present application is schematically shown. Figure 2 .

[0083] As a feasible implementation method, refer to Figures 9 to 10 As shown, the light-emitting shelf 200 has a shelf channel 420. The first end of the shelf channel 420 is connected to the ion sterilization component 410. The second end of the shelf channel 420 is provided with a plurality of ion outlets. The shelf channel 420 is used to transport the sterilizing ions to the ion outlets. The design of the shelf channel 420 can ensure that the sterilizing ions are evenly distributed in each storage area inside the refrigerator. By providing a plurality of ion outlets, the sterilizing ions can cover a wider area and improve the sterilization effect. By directly transporting the sterilizing ions to the storage area through the shelf channel 420, bacteria and viruses can be killed more quickly, reducing the chance of bacterial growth, thereby improving the hygiene level inside the refrigerator. The working state of the ion sterilization component 410 can be flexibly controlled by the control component 600 to ensure that the sterilizing ions are released when needed, improve energy utilization efficiency, and reduce unnecessary consumption.

[0084] Illustratively, by integrating the shelf channel 420 into the light-emitting shelf 200, space inside the refrigerator is saved, making the design more compact and beautiful.

[0085] As a feasible implementation method, refer to Figures 7 to 10 As shown, the light-emitting shelf 200 has a loading surface 213, a bottom surface 214 and a side surface 215. The loading surface 213 and the bottom surface 214 are arranged opposite to each other. The side surface 215 is connected between the loading surface 213 and the bottom surface 214. The ion outlet is located on the loading surface 213 and / or the bottom surface 214. The light-emitting element 220 is arranged on the side surface 215 on the side away from the door body of the refrigerator.

[0086] Exemplarily, the loading surface 213 is used to place food.

[0087] Exemplarily, the light emitting element 220 may be disposed on the side circumferential surface 215 to provide uniform lateral lighting, reduce shadows, and enhance the user's visual experience.

[0088] It is understandable that the light-emitting layer frame 200 can be made of transparent or translucent materials, and the light-emitting element 220 can be encapsulated in the light-emitting layer frame 200 to ensure uniform lighting.

[0089] Exemplarily, when the refrigerator includes two light-emitting shelf layers 200, they are sequentially labeled as the first light-emitting shelf layer 200 and the second light-emitting shelf layer 200 from the top to the bottom of the refrigerator. A first storage area is formed between the top of the storage compartment and the first light-emitting shelf layer 200. A second storage area is formed between the first light-emitting shelf layer 200 and the second light-emitting shelf layer 200. A third storage area is formed between the second light-emitting shelf layer 200 and the bottom of the storage compartment.

[0090] In some embodiments, the ion outlet is provided on the bottom surface 214. In this way, the sterilizing ions ejected from the ion opening 430 of the first light-emitting shelf layer 200 can fall onto the food materials located on the second light-emitting shelf layer 200.

[0091] In other embodiments, the ion outlet is provided on the loading surface 213. In this way, the sterilizing ions ejected from the ion opening 430 of the first light-emitting shelf layer 200 directly reach the surface of the food materials on the first light-emitting shelf layer 200 to sterilize the food materials.

[0092] As an implementable embodiment, the refrigerator further includes an air duct. The air outlet of the air duct communicates with the storage compartment. The ion sterilization member 410 is connected to the air outlet. The air flow at the air outlet is used to drive the sterilizing ions to the storage compartment. In this way, by driving the sterilizing ions to the storage compartment through the air flow in the air duct, it can ensure that the sterilizing ions are evenly distributed in each storage area inside the refrigerator, improving the sterilization effect. The driving effect of the air flow can accelerate the diffusion speed of the sterilizing ions, enabling them to cover the entire storage compartment more quickly, thereby improving the sterilization efficiency and reducing the chance of bacterial growth.

[0093] As an implementable embodiment, the sterilization assembly 400 further includes a sterilization coating. The sterilization coating is coated on the loading surface 213 and / or the bottom surface 214 of the light-emitting shelf layer 200. The sterilization coating includes a photocatalyst coating.

[0094] During the operation of the refrigerator, the light-emitting member 220 emits light under the power supply of the power supply unit. The sterilization coating generates strongly oxidizing substances, such as hydroxyl radicals and superoxide anion radicals, under the action of the light generated by the light-emitting member 220. These substances can effectively kill bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms in the storage compartment, thereby maintaining the cleanliness and hygiene of the refrigerator storage compartment. In addition, the photocatalyst coating is a passive sterilization method that does not require an additional power source or complex maintenance operations, and only needs to ensure sufficient light inside the refrigerator to function. In this way, the photocatalyst coating has a long-term and stable sterilization effect, and as long as there is light, its sterilization function can continue to play. Therefore, the refrigerator using the photocatalyst coating has a lower maintenance cost. Additionally, the photocatalyst coating sterilizes through a photocatalytic reaction, does not require the use of any chemical agents, and does not produce secondary pollution, so it will not leave harmful chemical residues inside the refrigerator, ensuring the safety of the food materials.

[0095] In some embodiments, the sterilization coating is applied to the loading surface 213 of the light-emitting layer rack 200.

[0096] In other embodiments, the sterilization coating is applied to the loading surface 213 and the bottom surface 214 of the light-emitting layer rack 200.

[0097] As an implementable embodiment, the refrigerator further includes an ion detection component. The ion detection component is electrically connected to the control component 600. The ion detection component is disposed in the storage compartment. The ion detection component is used to detect the concentration of sterilization ions in the storage compartment.

[0098] The ion detection component can detect the concentration of sterilization ions in the storage compartment in real time and feed the detection result back to the control component 600. The control component 600 adjusts the working state of the ion sterilization component 410 according to the detection result to ensure that the concentration of the sterilization ions always remains within the effective range, thereby improving the sterilization effect. By monitoring and adjusting the concentration of the sterilization ions in real time, the excessive release of the sterilization ions can be avoided, unnecessary energy consumption can be reduced, and the effects of energy conservation and environmental protection can be achieved. By monitoring the concentration of the sterilization ions in real time, abnormal situations can be detected and processed in a timely manner, the safety of the internal environment of the refrigerator can be ensured, and the influence on food and human health caused by too high a concentration of the sterilization ions can be prevented.

[0099] Exemplarily, the ion detection component can be an electrochemical sensor.
