Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of refrigerators, in particular to a protective structure of an air-cooled refrigerator. Background Art

[0002] Air-cooled refrigerators offer advantages such as uniform and stable refrigerator compartment temperatures, a frost-free, clean, and refreshing environment, and are widely used in high-end refrigerators. However, during transportation, bumps during logistics or improper packaging and protection can easily damage the refrigerator's interior. This can include cracked refrigerator compartment ribs and detached air duct covers. These damages not only result in loss of value but also affect the product's brand value and cooling performance. Therefore, special attention should be paid to protecting the refrigerator's interior, especially the glass shelves and air duct covers, to minimize or prevent damage.

[0003] During refrigerator production, existing packaging methods typically involve installing glass shelves into the refrigerator compartment and securing them with glass shelf fixings. However, this packaging method is typically suitable for smaller refrigerators. The larger the refrigerator, the larger and thicker the glass shelves, which in turn increase their weight and impact force, potentially causing significant damage to the refrigerator liner and air duct cover.

[0023] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] See also Figure 1 As shown, the utility model is a protective structure for an air-cooled refrigerator, which is suitable for an air-cooled refrigerator. The protective structure of the air-cooled refrigerator includes: a protective strip 1, which is arranged in the refrigeration chamber inside the air-cooled refrigerator and is used to buffer the interior of the air-cooled refrigerator.

[0025] For details, please refer to Figure 2-Figure 3 As shown, the protective strip 1 is provided with multiple support grooves 13, which provide space for mounting the interior trim of the air-cooled refrigerator. In this embodiment, the support grooves 13 accommodate the glass shelf 5. The glass shelf 5 is provided with decorative strips at both the front and rear. The rear decorative strip 6 is secured with a foam air duct pad 7. When the glass shelf 5 is installed in the support grooves 13, the foam air duct pad 7 contacts the air duct cover 3.

[0026] See also Figure 2 、 Figure 4-Figure 5 As shown, the protective strip 1 has positioning grooves 11 at both ends, which are used to locate the assembly position of the protective strip 1. A first clearance groove 12 is defined on one side of the protective strip 1, a second clearance groove 14 is defined on the other side of the protective strip 1, and a third clearance groove 15 is defined below the second clearance groove 14. The second clearance groove 14 gradually expands outward along the slot opening.

[0027] Specifically, an air-cooled refrigerator is equipped with multiple ribs 8. The ribs 8 at the top and bottom of the refrigerator compartment 2 can be snapped into positioning grooves 11, allowing the protective strip 1 to be accurately assembled within the refrigerator compartment 2 and providing a certain degree of support for the protective strip 1. The rib 8 at the center of the refrigerator compartment 2 can be snapped into a first clearance groove 12 to prevent it from obstructing the installation of the protective strip 1. The first clearance groove 12 is adapted to the shape of the rib 8, and the positioning groove 11 is adapted to the shape of the rib 8.

[0028] Furthermore, the second clearance groove 14 is located at the air outlet of the air duct cover 3, so that when the air-cooled refrigerator is in use, cold air can circulate in the refrigeration chamber. The outward-expanding second clearance groove 14 is more suitable for the movement of fluid.

[0029] It is understandable that during the testing process of the air-cooled refrigerator before leaving the factory, it is necessary to use a temperature probe for online testing. The setting of the third give way slot 15 can avoid the temperature probe during the test, so that the temperature probe can smoothly monitor the dynamic and static temperature of the air-cooled refrigerator online. After the test is completed, the temperature probe is removed from the third give way slot 15 before the air-cooled refrigerator leaves the factory.

[0030] In this application, when manufacturing and assembling an air-cooled refrigerator, the left and right protective strips 1 are first placed into the refrigerator compartment liner 2. The air duct foam pads 7 are then clamped onto the rear trim strips 6 on the glass shelves 5. Multiple glass shelves 5 are then clamped into the support grooves 13 in the protective strips 1, so that the air duct foam pads 7 and the glass shelves 5 are assembled as a single assembly within the refrigerator compartment. Finally, the left and right shelf fixing blocks 4 are used to clamp the glass shelves 5 and protective strips 1 from the front, preventing the glass shelves 5 from escaping toward the refrigerator door, thereby achieving packaging and protection of the interior. Furthermore, the support grooves 13 provided in the protective strips 1 support and protect the glass shelves 5, preventing them from striking and abrading the liner ribs 8 during transportation of the air-cooled refrigerator. The protective strips 1, glass shelves 5, and air duct cover 3 cooperate with each other to reduce the impact of the glass shelves 5 in the depth direction of the refrigerator and the impact of the air duct cover 3 in the width direction of the refrigerator, thereby reducing the restrictions on the refrigerator volume, the size and thickness of the glass shelves 5, and the weight.

[0031] The protective structure of the air-cooled refrigerator serves as a double-packaging protective structure for the refrigerating chamber liner 2 and the air duct cover 3, thereby providing more effective protection for the air-cooled refrigerator.

[0032] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: when producing and assembling an air-cooled refrigerator, first, the left and right protective strips 1 are respectively placed in the refrigerator compartment liner 2, and then the air duct foam pad 7 is clamped on the rear decorative strip 6 on the glass shelf 5, and then multiple glass shelves 5 are respectively clamped into the supporting grooves 13 in the protective strip 1, so that the air duct foam pad 7 and the glass shelf 5 are assembled as a component in the refrigerator compartment, and finally, the left and right shelf fixing blocks 4 are used to clamp the glass shelf 5 and the protective strip 1 from the front to prevent the glass shelf 5 from detaching toward the refrigerator door, thereby realizing packaging and protection of the interior.

[0033] The above describes an embodiment of the present invention in detail. However, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and should not be considered to limit the scope of implementation of the present invention. All equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of the present invention should still fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
