[0028] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application (or "implementation methods") will be described clearly and completely here with reference to the accompanying drawings. The terms "first" and "second" in the embodiments of the present application are used only for descriptive purposes and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. "Vertical" and "horizontal" herein refer to the height and width directions of the refrigerator when it is in normal use.

[0029] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 In the existing double-drawer refrigerator, the double drawers are two drawers arranged side by side, and are arranged in the refrigerator liner a1. A drawer partition is provided between the double drawers (not shown in the figure), and the drawer partition is fixed to the refrigerator liner a1 through the partition embedded part a2. The partition embedded part a2 is embedded in the foam layer a3 between the refrigerator liner a1 and the refrigerator shell. In conjunction with Figure a2, the currently commonly used partition embedded part a2 is a single-layer structure, which has low strength. And in conjunction with Figure 4 The single-layered partition embedded part a2, within the foam layer a3, only receives the horizontal preload from the foam layer a3, but is vertically subject to the gravity transmitted by the drawer. When a user places heavy objects in the drawer or uses the drawer for extended periods, the drawer pulls the partitions, and in turn, the partition embedded part a2, downward. This causes the top surface of the refrigerator liner a1 to sag downward at the location of the partition embedded part a2, further misaligning the drawer and the refrigerator door, which are parallel to the refrigerator liner a1.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 5 , the present application provides a partition embedded part 100 for refrigerator. Figure 6 and Figure 7The refrigerator includes a set of outer shell (not shown in the figure) and inner liner 20, and at least two drawers (not shown in the figure) arranged side by side in the inner liner 20. A foam layer 30 is filled between the inner liner 20 and the outer shell. A drawer partition 10 is provided between at least two drawers. The partition embedded part 100 is configured to pass through the inner liner 20, be fixedly connected to the drawer partition 10, and be placed in the foam layer 30. The inner liner 20 here takes the inner liner of the freezer compartment of the refrigerator as an example. At least two drawers are provided on the top of the inner liner 20. The number of drawers is not limited here. Any two adjacent drawers are connected by a drawer partition 10, and the drawer partition 10 is fixed to the inner liner 20 of the refrigerator through the partition embedded part 100.

[0031] The partition embedded part 100 of the present application includes: a base 110 and a support plate 120. The base 110 is configured to be fixed on the outer surface of the inner liner 20. That is, the base 110 abuts against the outer surface of the inner liner 20, passes through the inner liner 20, and is fixed to the drawer partition 10 located inside the inner liner. The projection of the support plate 120 on the base 110 is planar, and the support plate 120 is fixedly connected to the base 110. The support plate 120 is configured to be filled with a foam layer 30 between it and the base 110. That is, at least part of the surface of the support plate 120 is vertically opposite to the base 110. The support plate 120 is fixedly connected to the base 110, and the base 110 and the support plate 120 can realize force transmission.

[0032] A foam layer 30 is filled between the base 110 and the support plate 120. The foam layer 30 is formed by a fluid foam material that is filled between the support plate 120 and the base 110 and then foamed to form the foam layer 30. The formed foam layer 30 is hard and can provide an upward support force to the support plate 120, specifically the portion where the support plate 120 and the base 110 overlap. The base 110 and the support plate 120 are fixedly connected. The base 110 and the support plate 120 can be regarded as a whole, that is, the foam layer 30 can provide an upward support force to the entire partition embedded part 100, thereby offsetting part of the gravity transmitted to the partition embedded part 100 by the drawer, thereby reducing the downward deformation of the inner liner 20 at the partition embedded part 100, alleviating the unevenness of the drawer and the refrigerator door caused by the deformation of the inner liner 20, and improving the stability of the drawer. Furthermore, the partition embedded part 100 in the present application is a double-layer structure consisting of a support plate 120 and a base 110. Compared with the commonly used single-layer structure, the partition embedded part 100 in the present application has greater structural strength.

[0033] In this application, the support plate 120 can be parallel to the base 110 or tilted relative to the base 110, as long as it is not perpendicular to the base 110. This is not limited here. There is a certain height difference between the base 110 and the support plate 120 to accommodate the foam layer 30. The base 110 and the support plate 120 can be fixedly connected by multiple support columns, etc. The fixed connection method is not limited here.

[0034] In one embodiment, the support plate 120 and the base 110 are arranged parallel to each other. The supporting force of the foam layer 30 on the support plate 120 is perpendicular to the contact surface between the foam layer 30 and the support plate 120. Compared to the support plate 120 being inclined relative to the base 110, the supporting force of the foam layer 30 on the support plate 120 needs to be decomposed into a direction perpendicular to the base 110. In this embodiment, the contact surface between the foam layer 30 and the support plate 120 is parallel to the base 110, and the supporting force of the foam layer 30 and the support plate 120 is the upward supporting force on the embedded thermal insulation component 100, and does not need to be decomposed. Therefore, this embodiment can more effectively utilize the supporting force of the foam layer 30 on the support plate 120.

[0035] In one embodiment, the outer contour of the projection of support plate 120 on base 110 overlaps with the outer contour of base 110. That is, support plate 120 and base 110 are of the same shape and size and face each other. Viewed from the side, support plate 120 and base 110 form an "I"-shaped structure, providing ample contact surface with foam layer 30 and maintaining a neat and simple structure.

[0036] In one embodiment, the base 110 includes a fixing structure 111, which is used to securely connect to the drawer partition 10. The base 110 is connected to the support plate 120 via sidewalls 130. The sidewalls 130 are closed around the outside of the fixing structure 111, and the support plate 120 is located on the side of the sidewalls 130 facing away from the fixing structure 111. The sidewalls 130 and the support plate 120 are equivalent to a structure extending upward from the base 110 and having a flanged edge, with the flanged edge forming the support plate 120. The sidewalls 130 surround the fixing structure 111, protecting the fixing structure 111 located in the middle. The sidewalls 130 securely connect the base 110 and the support plate 120. The sidewalls 130 provide a strong structural strength, which can ensure more stable force transmission between the support plate 120 and the base 110, thereby enhancing the structural strength of the partition embedded component 100.

[0037] In one embodiment, combining Figure 8The side wall 130 is provided with a plurality of through holes 132, which may be circular. The provision of the through holes 132 does not affect the fluidity of the foaming material as it flows and fills around the partition embedded component 100, allowing the foaming material to be more evenly filled between the support plate 120 and the base 110. After the foaming material is foamed and formed into the foam layer 30, the foam layer 30 provides uniform support to the support plate.

[0038] In one embodiment, the support plates 120 are closed around the sides of the sidewalls 130. The support plates 120 are evenly distributed on the outside of the sidewalls. The support force exerted by the foam layer 30 on the support plates 120 is also evenly distributed on the outside of the sidewalls, that is, on the periphery of the partition embedded component 100, resulting in a uniform support force.

[0039] In one embodiment, the base, sidewalls, and support plate are integrally constructed, and the bulkhead embedded components are generally rectangular. This integrated structure reduces joints, making the force transmission path more direct and efficient, thereby minimizing force loss and dispersion during transmission and effectively utilizing supporting force to offset gravity. By eliminating joints and complex joints, the integrated structure reduces the risk of separation and cracking. This design extends the service life of the structure, reduces the frequency of repairs and replacements, and improves its durability.

[0040] In one embodiment, combining Figure 8 The sidewall 130 is provided with a plurality of reinforcing ribs 131, which are supported between the sidewall 130 and the support plate 120. The reinforcing ribs 131 enhance the load-bearing capacity of the connection between the sidewall 130 and the support plate 120, allowing the structure to withstand greater support forces and gravity. Under the action of external forces, the reinforcing ribs can disperse and resist deformation forces, maintaining the overall stability of the structure. The reinforcing ribs 131 can also be integrated with the partition embedded parts 100.

[0041] In one embodiment, the partition embedded component 100 is rectangular, including long and short sides. The base 110, sidewalls 130, and support plate 120 are all rectangular structures. The sidewalls 130 include a first sidewall 130a and a second sidewall 130b, where the first sidewall 130a is shorter than the second sidewall 130b. The reinforcing ribs 131 are provided on the first sidewall 130a, that is, on the short sides of the rectangular sidewalls 130.

[0042] The present application also provides a refrigerator, such as a French refrigerator, a cross refrigerator, etc., comprising any of the above-mentioned partition embedded parts 100. The partition embedded part 100 of the present application can also be applied to structures with high strength requirements.

[0043] It should be noted that the technical solutions or technical features described in the above embodiments can be combined or supplemented with each other without conflict. The scope of protection of this application is not limited to the precise structures described in the above embodiments and shown in the accompanying drawings; all modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of this application shall be included in the scope of protection of this application.
