[0030] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 and Figure 2 FIGS. Figure 1 and Figure 2 show a schematic structural diagram of a refrigeration device 100 in an embodiment of the present application. A refrigeration device 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application can be a vertical refrigerator, a freezer, etc., which is not limited. As

[0031] shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the refrigeration device 100 includes a main body 110, a door body 120 and a storage assembly 130. Among them, the main body 110 is provided with a refrigeration space 111 with an open top. The temperature inside the refrigeration space 111 is lower than room temperature to store food ingredients. It can be understood that the refrigeration device 100 further includes a refrigeration device for refrigerating to keep the refrigeration space 111 at a lower temperature. The refrigeration space 111 has an open top, which avoids bending down and is more convenient for users to take items.

[0031] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the door body 120 covers the main body 110, and when the door body 120 covers the main body 110, it covers the open mouth. In the embodiment shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the door body 120 is rotatably connected to the top end of the main body 110. Combining Figure 3 , Figure 3 shows a top view of the door body 120 in an embodiment of the present application. The door body 120 is provided with a handle 121 to facilitate manually driving the door body 120 to rotate relative to the main body 110 to cover.

[0032] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the storage assembly 130 is movably connected to the main body 110 up and down and is located inside the refrigeration space 111. The storage assembly 130 at least includes an upper storage box 131 and a lower storage box 132 arranged up and down. As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, both the upper storage box 131 and the lower storage box 132 have a structure with an open top, and storage spaces for placing refrigerated items are provided inside them.

[0033] In this solution, by providing an upper storage box 131 and a lower storage box 132 arranged vertically, combined with the open top of the refrigerating space 111, when the door body 120 is opened, the upper storage box 131 is exposed through the open top of the refrigerating space 111, while the lower storage box 132 is blocked by the upper storage box 131 and remains within the refrigerating space 111 of the main body 110, so that the lower storage box 132 and the items inside it are kept in a light-shielded environment, protected from light interference, and also maintained in a refrigerated state. At the same time, the storage space is movably connected to the main body 110 in the vertical direction, so that when it is necessary to access the items in the lower storage box 132, the entire storage component 130 can be moved upward to facilitate taking the items.

[0034] As Figure 1 shown, in one embodiment, the storage component 130 includes a lower storage cover 133 covering the lower storage box 132 to further block light from the items inside the lower storage box 132, so as to prevent light from shining on the items inside the lower storage box 132 when accessing the items in the upper storage box 131.

[0035] Combined with Figure 4 , Figure 4 shows a schematic state diagram of the lower storage box 132 and the lower storage cover 133 in an embodiment of the present application. In one embodiment, the lower storage cover 133 is rotatably connected to the top end of the lower storage box 132, and the center point of the lower storage cover 133 is located on the rotation axis of the lower storage cover 133, so that when the lower storage cover 133 rotates relative to the lower storage box 132, the space occupied during its rotation is small, to avoid the distance between the upper storage box 131 and the lower storage box 132 being too close and interfering with the opening of the lower storage cover 133. As Figure 4 shown, in this embodiment, the two ends of the lower storage cover 133 on the same diameter are rotatably connected to the lower storage box 132, so that when other areas of the lower storage cover 133 are stressed, the lower storage cover 133 can rotate relative to the lower storage box 132 as shown in (b), (c), and (d) of Figure 4 . When there is no external force acting on the lower storage cover 133, as shown in (a) of Figure 4 , the lower storage cover 133 naturally covers the open top of the lower storage cover 133.

[0036] In other embodiments, the lower storage cover 133 can also adopt other structures and connection methods connected to the lower storage cover 133. For example, the lower storage cover 133 adopts a foldable structure and is slidably connected to the top of the lower storage box 132. When the lower storage cover 133 is in a folded state, the lower storage cover 133 is opened, and when the lower storage cover 133 is in an extended state, it covers the open mouth of the lower storage box 132.

[0037] As Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in one embodiment, the refrigeration device 100 further includes a lifting assembly 140. The height of the lifting assembly 140 is variable, and both ends of the lifting assembly 140 are respectively connected to the main body 110 and the lower storage box 132, so that when the height of the lifting assembly 140 changes, the lower storage box 132 can rise or fall along with the lifting assembly 140. And when the height of the lifting assembly 140 extends to the maximum height, the upper storage box 131 at least partially protrudes from the refrigeration space 111. After the upper storage box 131 partially protrudes from the refrigeration space 111, the upper storage box 131 can be manually moved away to take the items located in the lower storage box 132.

[0038] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in one embodiment, the storage assembly 130 includes a support rod 134. One end of the support rod 134 is connected to the bottom surface of the lower storage box 132, and the other end is connected to the bottom surface of the upper storage box 131, so that the upper storage box 131 and the lower storage box 132 move synchronously.

[0039] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in one embodiment, the upper storage box 131 and the lower storage box 132 are arranged at an interval up and down. On the one hand, it is convenient to take the items located in the lower storage box 132 through the interval between the upper storage box 131 and the lower storage box 132. On the other hand, it is convenient for the lower storage cover 133 to rotate relative to the lower storage box 132 to cover the lower storage box 132. In the embodiment as Figure 3 shown, when the height of the lifting assembly 140 extends to the maximum height, the upper storage box 131 completely moves out of the refrigeration space 111, so as to facilitate taking the items located in the lower storage box 132 through the interval between the upper storage box 131 and the lower storage box 132 without moving the upper storage box 131. In other embodiments, the lifting assembly 140 can also be a pneumatic or electric lifting rod.

[0040] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in one embodiment, the lifting assembly 140 includes two bent rods 141 that are opposite and cross - arranged. Each bent rod 141 includes an upper part 1411 and a lower part 1412 that are rotatably connected. The upper parts 1411 of the two bent rods 141 are rotatably connected, and the lower parts 1412 of the two bent rods 141 are rotatably connected. At the same time, the upper parts 1411 of the two bent rods 141 are both connected to the bottom end of the lower storage box 132, and the lower parts 1412 of the two bent rods 141 are movably connected to the main body 110. As Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the lifting assembly 140 further includes a slide rail 143 connected to the main body 110 and located at the bottom surface of the refrigerating space 111, so as to facilitate the sliding of the lower part 1412 relative to the main body 110. When the angle between the upper part 1411 and the lower part 1412 of the two bending rods 141 changes, combined with the movement of the lower part 1412 relative to the main body 110, the lifting and lowering of the lifting assembly 140 are realized.

[0041] As Figure 1 shown, in one embodiment, the lifting assembly 140 further includes a telescopic rod 142 connected to the upper part 1411 of any one of the bending rods 141 and the lower part 1412 of the other bending rod 141. The length of the telescopic rod 142 is variable. When the telescopic rod 142 extends, the lifting assembly 140 rises. When the telescopic rod 142 shortens, the lifting assembly 140 descends, so as to drive the change of the angle between the upper part 1411 and the lower part 1412 of the two bending rods 141 through the telescopic rod 142, and realize the lifting and lowering of the lifting assembly 140.

[0042] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in one embodiment, the refrigeration device 100 further includes a sensor 150 and a control member. Combined with Figure 5 shown, the sensor 150 is located on the peripheral wall of the main body 110 and on the lifting path of the lower storage box 132. The sensor 150 is used to detect whether the moving height of the lower storage box 132 reaches the set height and send out a signal. The sensor 150 is located at a fixed position and can identify whether an object reaches the position where it is located, so as to realize the detection of whether the moving height of the lower storage box 132 reaches the set height. Both the sensor 150 and the lifting assembly 140 are electrically connected to the control member, and the lifting assembly 140 is controlled by the control member. The control member is used to control the telescopic of the lifting assembly 140 according to the signal of the sensor 150. For example, when the lower storage box 132 reaches the set height, the lifting assembly 140 is stopped from continuing to extend. Specifically, in this embodiment, the telescopic rod 142 in the lifting assembly 140 is controlled by the control member, and the telescopic rod 142 can be a hydraulic telescopic rod.

[0043] As Figure 6As shown, in one embodiment, the sensor 150 includes a fixed cylinder 151 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the main body 110 and a sliding cylinder 152 sleeved inside or outside the fixed cylinder 151. The sliding cylinder 152 partially protrudes from the fixed cylinder 151 and is slidably arranged relative to the fixed cylinder 151. The sliding cylinder 152 is located on the moving path of the lower storage box 132. The sensor 150 further includes a pressure-sensitive element 153 disposed on the sliding cylinder 152 to protect the pressure-sensitive element 153 and prevent the pressure-sensitive element 153 from being accidentally touched and causing false position signals to be sent. When the lower storage box 132 moves up and down, when the lower storage box 132 moves up to the position where the sensor 150 is located, the lower storage box 132 exerts a radial force on the pressure-sensitive element 153 protruding from the inner wall of the main body 110 and presses the sliding cylinder 152 into the fixed cylinder 151, so as to prevent the sliding cylinder 152 from interfering with the movement of the lower storage box 132, enabling the pressure-sensitive element 153 to obtain the position signal of the lower storage box 132 without physically interfering with the lower storage box 132, and preventing the lower storage box 132 from being scratched by the sensor 150.

[0044] 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 to be within the scope described in this specification.

[0045] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementation manners of the present application. The description is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, several modifications and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present application shall be subject to the appended claims.
