[0037] According to the embodiments of this utility model, please refer to Figures 1-5 A refrigerator distributor 100 is proposed, including a distributor body 110. The distributor body 110 has a material outlet for discharging material to a receiving item. The distributor body 110 includes a base member 10, a micro switch 60, a trigger member 20, and a material dispensing operation member 90. The micro switch 60 is located on the base member 10. The trigger member 20 is rotatably connected to the base member 10. The material dispensing operation member 90 is movably connected to the base member 10, and the trigger member 20 is located between the micro switch 60 and the material dispensing operation member 90. The material dispensing operation member 90 has a first state where the trigger member 20 triggers the micro switch 60, and a second state where the micro switch 60 is deactivated. The micro switch 60 is configured to discharge material to the receiving item when triggered.

[0038] The movable connection can be a sliding connection or a rotating connection.

[0039] The vertical direction Z refers to the reference direction of the refrigerator distributor 100 in its working or normal placement state.

[0040] The base component 10 can be a single piece or a series of pieces connected together to form an integral part.

[0041] The material outlet can be ice outlet 12, water outlet 311, or both water outlet 311 and ice outlet 12.

[0042] The micro switch 60 can be fixed to the base component 10 by means of screws, adhesive or snap-fit, etc., and no specific limitation is made here.

[0043] The container to be received can be either a water container or an ice tray, depending on the user's needs.

[0044] According to the refrigerator distributor 100 of this utility model, the material discharged from the material outlet can be water and / or ice. When taking out the material, the part to be received can be placed below the material outlet. By manually triggering the material taking operation part 90, the material taking operation part 90 drives the trigger part 20 to rotate relative to the seat member 10, so that the trigger part 20 triggers the material taking operation part 90 to realize the material taking out of the material outlet, thereby facilitating the taking out of the material.

[0045] In some embodiments of this invention, the movable connection is a rotary connection.

[0046] The axis of rotation of the material handling component 90 relative to the seat component 10 can intersect with the vertical direction Z, or it can be the same as the vertical direction Z.

[0047] As an example, the base component 10 is provided with a water receiving space. Taking the water receiving space facing away from the operator as a reference, the side of the water receiving space facing away from the operator is the front side. The material outlet is located above the water receiving space. The material picking operation component 90 can be located on the front side of the water receiving space, or on the left or right side of the water receiving space. The material to be picked can be placed in the water receiving space, and by touching the material picking operation component 90, the micro switch 60 is triggered to pick up the material.

[0048] The material handling component 90 rotates relative to the base component 10. Compared with other movable connection methods, the rotary connection has the characteristics of smoother operation and less resistance, which can reduce the occurrence of jamming or irregularity during the triggering of the micro switch 60 and improve the reliability of the micro switch 60 triggering.

[0049] In some embodiments of this utility model, the movable connection is a sliding connection. The seat component 10 is provided with an installation port, and the material picking operation component 90 is located at the installation port and can slide along the depth direction of the installation port. A compression spring is provided between the seat component 10 and the material picking operation component 90 to form a structure similar to a "button". When the material picking operation component 90 is not pressed, the material picking operation component 90 applies pressure to the trigger component 20 to make the trigger component 20 rotate relative to the seat component 10, thereby triggering the micro switch 60.

[0050] Please refer to some embodiments of this utility model. Figure 5 The refrigerator dispenser 100 also includes an elastic element 1101. One end of the elastic element 1101 abuts against the trigger element 20 or the material handling operation element 90, and the other end of the elastic element 1101 abuts against the seat member 10. The elastic force of the elastic element 1101 has a tendency to drive the trigger element 20 away from the micro switch 60.

[0051] The elastic element 1101 can be, but is not limited to, a compression spring or an elastic sheet.

[0052] When the resistance to the rotation of the material handling component 90 is large, the spring force of the micro switch 60 is insufficient to drive the trigger 20 to reset, and the spring of the micro switch 60 is prone to fatigue failure. In order to improve the reliability of the micro switch 60 being triggered, the elastic element 1101 is provided to increase the restoring force of the material handling component 90 and reduce the fatigue failure of the spring of the micro switch 60.

[0053] Please refer to some embodiments of this utility model. Figure 5 The bottom of the material handling operation member 90 is rotatably connected to the base member 10. The axis of rotation of the bottom of the material handling operation member 90 relative to the base member 10 is located below the trigger member 20 and intersects with the axis of rotation of the trigger member 20 relative to the base member 10.

[0054] The material handling component 90 can be, but is not limited to, a plate structure.

[0055] Therefore, when taking water and / or ice, pressing the top of the taking operation member 90 facilitates the taking operation; at the same time, the taking operation member 90 rotates. Since the trigger member 20 is offset from the axis of rotation of the bottom of the taking operation member 90 relative to the seat member 10, when the taking operation member 90 squeezes the trigger member 20, it is easier to make the trigger member 20 rotate, so that the trigger member 20 presses against and triggers the micro switch 60, improving the reliability of the trigger.

[0056] Please refer to some embodiments of this utility model. Figure 5 The seat component 10 is provided with an embedded structure 11, and the material picking operation component 90 has a limiting structure 91. At least part of the limiting structure 91 is located in the embedded structure 11. During the rotation of the material picking operation component 90 relative to the seat component 10, the limiting structure 91 can rotate within the embedded structure 11 about the axis of rotation of the material picking operation component 90 relative to the seat component 10.

[0057] The embedded structure 11 can be a groove or a limiting hole. The shape of the groove or the limiting hole is not specifically limited, such as it can be square, rectangular or circular, etc.

[0058] As an example, the top of the material handling component 90 has a limiting structure 91, and the seat component 10 is provided with a limiting hole at the position opposite to the limiting structure 91. The limiting hole is a square hole, and the limiting part can move within the square hole.

[0059] Therefore, the range of rotation of the material handling operation member 90 relative to the base member 10 can be limited, so that the material handling operation member 90 can trigger or deactivate the micro switch 60 within a preset range of motion, thereby improving the reliability of the micro switch 60 triggering.

[0060] Please refer to some embodiments of this utility model. Figure 3 and Figure 4The refrigerator dispenser 100 also includes a lifting assembly 30, which is slidably connected to the base member 10 in the vertical direction Z. The lifting assembly 30 includes a splash guard 31, which is used to prevent material from splashing from the material outlet to the receiving part.

[0061] As an example, the seat member 10 is provided with a guide groove extending in the vertical direction Z, and the lifting assembly 30 is provided with a guide protrusion extending in the vertical direction Z, the guide protrusion being located in the outlet groove; or, the seat member 10 is provided with a guide protrusion extending in the vertical direction Z, and the lifting assembly 30 is provided with a guide groove extending in the vertical direction Z, the guide protrusion being located in the outlet groove.

[0062] As an example, a guide rail or guide rod can also be provided on the seat member 10, and the lifting assembly 30 has a sliding member that is slidably connected to the guide rail or guide rod.

[0063] During the process of draining water and / or de-icing from the material outlet to the receiving part, material splashing may occur, making the area around the refrigerator distributor 100 slippery. The anti-splash cylinder 31 is installed so that during the process of discharging material to the receiving part, it moves above the receiving part via the lifting assembly 30 to reduce material splashing and keep the accessories of the refrigerator distributor 100 cleaner.

[0064] Please refer to some embodiments of this utility model. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The refrigerator distributor 100 also includes a limit switch 50, which is disposed on the base member 10. The lifting assembly 30 has a limit state that can trigger the limit switch 50 and an unlock state that can release the limit switch 50.

[0065] The limit switch 50 can be a travel switch or a limit micro switch.

[0066] The number of limit switches 50 can be one or more. For example, there are two limit switches 50, which are set at the extreme positions of the lifting assembly 30 in vertical movement. When the lifting assembly 30 moves to the extreme position, the limit switches 50 can be triggered.

[0067] By setting the limit switch 50, the lifting assembly 30 can move up and down within the set stroke, thereby reducing the probability of the lifting assembly 30 being damaged due to overtravel and improving the reliability of the refrigerator distributor 100.

[0068] In some embodiments of the present invention, the lifting assembly 30 has a first limit position for triggering the limit switch 50 and a second limit position for triggering the limit switch 50. The first limit position and the second limit position are spaced apart along the vertical direction Z, and the first limit position is located above the second limit position.

[0069] As an example, please refer to Figure 4 The number of limit switches 50 is one. The lifting assembly 30 has a limit groove 322 on one side. The refrigerator distributor 100 also includes a lever 80. The lever 80 is rotatably connected to the base component 10. Part of the lever 80 is located in the limit groove 322. By moving the lifting assembly 30, the two walls of the limit groove 322 that are Z-spaced vertically can abut against the lever 80 to trigger the limit switch 50. That is, when the lifting assembly 30 is in the first limit position and the second limit position, the corresponding wall drives the lever 80 to rotate to trigger the limit switch 50.

[0070] Please refer to some embodiments of this utility model. Figure 2 and Figure 2 The material outlet also includes a water outlet 311, and the refrigerator distributor 100 also includes a water supply pipe 70. Part of the water supply pipe 70 is located on the lifting assembly 30. The anti-splash cylinder 31 is provided with a water outlet 311, and the water outlet end of the water supply pipe 70 is connected to the water outlet 311; and / or, the material outlet includes an ice outlet 12, the top of the seat component 10 is provided with an ice outlet 12, and the lifting assembly 30 is located below the ice outlet 12.

[0071] Ice outlet 12 can be connected to the ice storage box of the refrigerator through an ice discharge valve; and / or, water supply pipe 70 is connected to a water source, and water supply pipe 70 is equipped with a water supply valve.

[0072] When removing ice, the user can press the automatic ice removal button on the refrigerator's display control panel. After receiving the ice removal command, the refrigerator's controller will control the anti-splash cylinder 31 to move above the item to be removed and open the ice discharge valve to automatically remove ice.

[0073] The refrigerator can be used to make cold water and / or ice, and water and / or crank can be drawn from ice outlet 12 and / or water outlet 311 to facilitate users in making cold drinks or freezing food, thereby improving the refrigerator's versatility.

[0074] Please refer to some embodiments of this utility model. Figure 4 The refrigerator dispenser 100 also includes a drive mechanism 40, and the lifting assembly 30 includes a driven member 32. The driven member 32 is slidably connected to the base member 10 in the vertical direction Z, and the driven member 32 is drively connected to the drive mechanism 40. The drive mechanism 40 is used to drive the driven member 32 to move in the vertical direction Z.

[0075] The splash guard 31 can be fixed to the driven component 32 by means of screw connection, riveting, welding, snap-fit ​​or integral molding.

[0076] The drive mechanism 40 and the driven component 32 can be driven by electric drive.

[0077] The drive mechanism 40 may include a drive element 42. In one example, the drive element 42 may be, but is not limited to, an electric actuator.

[0078] In another example, the drive mechanism 40 may further include a transmission component, which may include a gear 41 and a rack. The rack is mounted on the driven member 32 and is arranged along the vertical direction Z. The drive member 42 may be a motor that drives the gear 41 to rotate, thereby realizing the up-and-down movement of the lifting assembly 30. Alternatively, a portion of the driven member 32 may be made into a rack structure, i.e., the driven member 32 has multiple meshing teeth 321 spaced apart along the vertical direction Z, and the meshing teeth 321 mesh with the gear 41. In other examples, the transmission component may be, but is not limited to, a ball screw drive mechanism.

[0079] Therefore, the lifting component 30 can be automatically raised and lowered through the drive mechanism 40, thereby reducing the hassle of manually operating the lifting component 30 and making it easier to operate.

[0080] Please refer to some embodiments of this utility model. Figures 3-5 The driven component 32 is located on the side of the trigger component 20 away from the material handling component 90. The micro switch 60 is located on the side of the driven component 32 along the first direction X. The arrangement direction of the material handling component 90 and the trigger component 20 intersects with the first direction X. The first direction X intersects with the vertical direction Z. The trigger component 20 is a rod-shaped structure, and the length direction of the rod-shaped structure is the same as the first direction X.

[0081] As an example, one end of the rod-shaped structure is rotatably connected to the base member 10, and the other end of the rod-shaped structure is configured to be driven by the material handling operation member 90 to trigger the micro switch 60. The aforementioned elastic member 1101 is a compression spring. The rod-shaped structure has a positioning protrusion, and part of the compression spring is sleeved on the positioning protrusion. One end of the compression spring abuts against the rod-shaped structure, and the other end of the compression spring abuts against the material handling operation member 90. The spring of the micro switch 60 is positioned towards the rod-shaped structure so that when the material handling operation member 90 is pressed, the other end of the rod-shaped structure can squeeze the spring to trigger the micro switch 60.

[0082] During the movement of the driven component 32, in order to avoid the driven component 32, the micro switch 60 is located on one side of the driven component 32 along the first direction X to avoid interference. The material handling operation component 90 uses a rod-shaped structure to trigger the micro switch 60, which allows the material handling operation component 90 to trigger the micro switch 60 without having to be made too large, so that the structure is more compact.

[0083] In some embodiments of the application, the base component 10 includes a base plate and a housing. The housing has an inlet, and the base plate and the inlet are closed to form an installation space. A water-receiving space is formed on the side of the housing facing away from the base plate. The anti-splash cylinder 31 moves up and down within the water-receiving space. With the refrigerator dispenser 100 facing the operator as a reference, the side of the water-receiving space facing away from the operator is the front side, and the material handling component 90 can be disposed on the front side of the water-receiving space.

[0084] According to an embodiment of this application, a refrigerator is proposed, including the refrigerator dispenser 100 described in the above embodiment.

[0085] Since the refrigerator dispenser 100 incorporates all the technical features of a refrigerator, its effect is the same as described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0086] In some embodiments of the application, the refrigerator distributor 100 is installed on the refrigerator door. The refrigerator distributor 100 has a display and control panel on the door, which includes buttons for dispensing ice and / or water. An ice storage box is located inside the refrigerator, and the bottom of the ice storage box is connected to the ice outlet 12 at the top of the base component 10 via an ice discharge valve. When the refrigerator controller receives an ice and / or water dispensing command, the controller controls the lifting component 30 to move to a predetermined position, and then controls the corresponding valve to automatically dispense ice and / or drain water. Users can also choose to manually dispense ice and / or water by manually operating the dispensing operation component 90 to trigger the microswitch 60.

[0087] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
