[0033] If there are terms related to directional indications or positional relationships in the embodiments of this application (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, outside, top, bottom, center, vertical, horizontal, longitudinal, transverse, length, width, counterclockwise, clockwise, axial, radial, circumferential, etc.), such terms are only used to explain the relative positional relationship, movement, etc. between the components in a specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings); if the specific posture changes, the directional indication or positional relationship will also change accordingly. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" in the embodiments of this application are only used for the purpose of convenience of description and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0034] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the cold storage device of the present application includes a water supply assembly 1, a refrigerated compartment 2, a shelf 3, and an ice maker body (not shown). The water supply assembly 1 is located within the refrigerated compartment 2 and is connected to the ice maker body. The water supply assembly 1 is used to provide water to the ice maker body for making ice cubes. The shelf 3 is located within the refrigerated compartment 2, with a portion of the water supply assembly 1 spaced apart from the shelf 3 to allow for removal and adjustment as needed.

[0035] In some embodiments, the water supply assembly 1 includes a water supply assembly body 11, a mounting plate 12, and a mounting plate 13. The mounting plate 12 is disposed on a side wall of the refrigeration compartment 2, and the water supply assembly body 11 is detachably connected to the mounting plate 12 and spaced apart from the shelf 3.

[0036] This arrangement allows the shelf 3 to be adjusted and removed as needed, improving the convenience of using the cold storage device and thereby enhancing the user experience. Furthermore, the water supply assembly body 11 can be removed from the mounting plate 12, making it easier to clean the corners of the cold storage compartment 2 when cleaning, further improving the convenience of using the cold storage device.

[0037] Further integration Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the water supply assembly body 11 includes a claw 111, a first fixing portion 112, a water supply portion 113, an assembly portion 114, a positioning column 115, and an adapter block 116. The claw 111 is spaced apart from the first fixing portion 112. The claw 111 can be provided on the mounting plate 12, and the first fixing portion 112 can be detachably connected to the mounting plate 12, thereby allowing the water supply assembly body 11 to be detachably connected to the mounting plate 12.

[0038] The claws 111 and the first fixing portion 112 are each provided with a plurality. Specifically, to reduce manufacturing costs, the claws 111 and the first fixing portion 112 are each provided with one. Indeed, to improve the stability of the connection between the water supply assembly body 11 and the mounting plate 12, the claws 111 and the first fixing portion 112 are each provided with a plurality.

[0039] Further integration Figure 6 As shown, the claw 111 has a contact surface 1111 and an insertion surface 1112. The contact surface 1111 can contact the mounting plate 12, allowing the claw 111 to be securely attached to the mounting plate 12. The insertion surface 1112 is connected to the contact surface 1111 and is inclined from the contact surface 1111 toward the mounting plate 12. This arrangement increases the width of the opening at the insertion end of the claw 111, making it easier to insert the claw 111 into the mounting plate 12.

[0040] Further integration Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the water supply component body 11 and the mounting plate 12 are fixed by fasteners. The first fixing portion 112 includes a accommodating cavity 1121 and a through hole 1122. The accommodating cavity 1121 is used to accommodate fasteners to avoid exposing the fasteners, thereby improving the aesthetics of the water supply component body 11 after installation. The through hole 1122 is located in the middle area of ​​the first fixing portion 112. The fastener passes through the through hole 1122 and is connected to the mounting plate 12. The through hole 1122 is arranged as a circular hole, and the diameter of the through hole 1122 is larger than the diameter of the fastener. In order to make it easier for the fastener to pass through the through hole 1122 and easier to adjust, the through hole 1122 is arranged as a waist-shaped hole.

[0041] In some other embodiments, the first fixing portion 112 is configured as a quick-release structure such as a buckle or a claw, thereby improving the convenience of installing the water supply component body 11 and the mounting plate 12, and also facilitating the disassembly of the water supply component body 11 and the mounting plate 12, thereby improving people's user experience.

[0042] In some embodiments, the water supply portion 113 is connected to the assembly portion 114, and the water supply portion 113 is used to support structures such as the water source and the pump body. The assembly portion 114 is located between the mounting plate 12 and the water supply portion 113, and the first fixing portion 112 is disposed on the assembly portion 114. Specifically, the first fixing portion 112 protrudes from the assembly portion 114 toward the mounting plate 12, thereby forming a receiving cavity 1121. The opening of the receiving cavity 1121 faces the water supply portion 113.

[0043] Along the direction from the claw 111 to the first fixing portion 112, a portion of the assembly portion 114 extends beyond the water supply portion 113. The first fixing portion 112 is located within the assembly portion 114 and extends beyond the water supply portion 113. This arrangement facilitates the placement of fasteners on the first fixing portion 112, thereby facilitating disassembly and assembly of the water supply assembly body 11 and the mounting plate 12. After the water supply assembly body 11 is installed, the assembly portion 114 is in contact with the inner wall of the refrigerated compartment 2.

[0044] The positioning column 115 protrudes from the assembly portion 114 toward the mounting plate 12 and is located between the claw 111 and the first fixing portion 112. The positioning column 115 and the water supply portion 113 are located on opposite sides of the assembly portion 114. The positioning column 115 includes a column body 1151 and a positioning reinforcement portion 1152. Both the column body 1151 and the positioning reinforcement portion 1152 protrude from the assembly portion 114 toward the mounting plate 12. The column body 1151 extends into the mounting plate 12 and is used to provide positioning for the water supply assembly main body 11 during installation. The positioning reinforcement portion 1152 is used to strengthen the connection strength between the column body 1151 and the assembly portion 114.

[0045] The positioning reinforcement 1152 is a plate-like structure, and multiple positioning reinforcements 1152 are provided, spaced apart around the perimeter of the column body 1151. The protruding length of the positioning reinforcement 1152 is less than that of the column body 1151, and the end of the positioning reinforcement 1152 facing away from the mounting portion 114 is flush. This arrangement allows the positioning reinforcement 1152 to contact the mounting plate 12 during installation of the water supply assembly body 11, thereby securing the water supply assembly body 11. The positioning reinforcement 1152 protrudes beyond the mounting portion 114.

[0046] Adapter block 116 is fixed to water supply section 113 and located at the rear side of water supply section 113. Adapter block 116 is spaced apart from assembly section 114 along the direction from claw 111 to first fixing section 112. Claw 111 is fixed to adapter block 116. Specifically, claw 111 is L-shaped, with its opening facing the rear side of water supply section 113.

[0047] Further integration Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, in some embodiments, the mounting plate 12 is provided with a slot portion 121, a second fixing portion 122, a positioning hole 123, and a positioning protrusion 125. The claw 111 is engaged with the slot portion 121, and the first fixing portion 112 is detachably connected to the second fixing portion 122, so that the water supply assembly body 11 and the mounting plate 12 are detachably connected.

[0048] The slot portion 121 protrudes from the mounting plate 12 in a direction away from the water supply assembly body 11 and is provided with a cavity 1211 and a baffle 1212. Specifically, the slot portion 121 is recessed relative to the first contact side 124 of the mounting plate 12. The slot portion 121 protrudes relative to the second contact side 126 of the mounting plate 12. The first contact side 124 and the second contact side 126 are disposed opposite each other, i.e., the first contact side 124 contacts the refrigerated compartment 2, while the second contact side 126 contacts the contact plate 13.

[0049] The opening of the card cavity 1211 faces the mounting plate 12, and the baffle 1212 is located between the card cavity 1211 and the mounting plate 12. Specifically, along the protruding direction of the card slot 121, the baffle 1212 partially covers the card cavity 1211, and the outer side of the baffle 1212 is flush with the first contact side 124. The claw 111 is located within the card cavity 1211 and can contact the baffle 1212. Furthermore, the contact surface 1111 of the claw 111 is in contact with the baffle 1212.

[0050] Further integration Figure 11 As shown, the slot portion 121 and the second fixing portion 122 are spaced apart. Specifically, the position of the slot portion 121 corresponds to the position of the claw 111, and the position of the second fixing portion 122 corresponds to the position of the first fixing portion 112. Along the direction from the second fixing portion 122 to the slot portion 121, the height of the card cavity 1211 gradually decreases. Specifically, along the direction from the second fixing portion 122 to the slot portion 121, the height between the upper and lower inner sides of the card cavity 1211 gradually decreases. This arrangement makes it easier for the slot portion 121 to clamp the claw 111, and allows the claw 111 to stably engage with the slot portion 121.

[0051] In some other embodiments, the slot portion 121 is a through hole. When the water supply component body 11 is assembled on the mounting plate 12, the claw 111 passes through the slot portion 121, and the fitting surface 1111 of the claw 111 fits against the second fitting side 126 of the mounting plate 12.

[0052] In some other embodiments, the slot portion 121 is disposed on the water supply assembly body 11 , and the claw 111 is disposed on the mounting plate 12 .

[0053] In some embodiments, the second fixing portion 122 is a column that protrudes from the mounting plate 12 away from the water supply assembly body 11. A threaded hole is defined within the second fixing portion 122, and a fastener passing through the first fixing portion 112 is locked within the threaded hole of the second fixing portion 122. Of course, to reduce manufacturing costs, the second fixing portion 122 can also be a threaded hole extending through the mounting plate 12.

[0054] In some other embodiments, the second fixing part 122 is designed in a snap and claw structure with the first fixing part 112 to improve the convenience of installing the water supply assembly body 11 and the mounting plate 12. Of course, the second fixing part 122 and the first fixing part 112 can also be designed in a shaft hole interference fit structure to reduce the manufacturing cost.

[0055] In some embodiments, the positioning column 115 is arranged in the positioning hole 123. Further, the mounting plate 12 comprises a positioning sleeve column 127 protruding from the mounting plate 12 away from the water supply assembly body 11, and the positioning hole 123 is arranged in the positioning sleeve column 127. Specifically, the column body 1151 is located in the positioning hole 123, and the positioning reinforcing part 1152 can contact the positioning sleeve column 127 to limit the position of the water supply assembly body 11.

[0056] In some other embodiments, the positioning hole 123 and the positioning sleeve column 127 are arranged in the water supply assembly body 11, and the positioning column 115 is arranged in the mounting plate 12.

[0057] In some embodiments, the positioning protrusion 125 is arranged to protrude from the first abutting side 124 of the mounting plate 12 to the water supply assembly body 11. The positioning protrusion 125 cooperates with the side wall of the refrigeration compartment 2 to improve the convenience of installing the mounting plate 12 and the refrigeration compartment 2.

[0058] Further combining Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, in some embodiments, the mounting plate 12 is arranged on the side of the water supply assembly body 11 away from the mounting plate 12, and is abutted to the side wall of the refrigeration compartment 2. The mounting plate 12 is used to fix the mounting plate 12 to the side wall of the refrigeration compartment 2. The mounting plate 13 is preferably fixed to the refrigeration compartment 2 by gluing.
