Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of refrigeration equipment, and in particular to an ice cabinet. BACKGROUND

[0002] The ice cabinet mainly stores food or other articles in a constant low-temperature cold state. Generally, the ice cabinet comprises a cabinet body and a cabinet door assembly. The cabinet body has a storage space and a cabinet opening communicating with the storage space. The cabinet door assembly is installed on the cabinet opening to reciprocally open and close relative to the cabinet opening, thereby opening or closing the storage space of the cabinet body.

[0003] In the related art, the cabinet door assembly usually comprises two cabinet doors, which can be moved left and right respectively, so that the user can take and place articles from the left and right sides of the storage space of the cabinet body. Meanwhile, a door seal is arranged at the overlapping part between the two cabinet doors as a sealing member, which is used to seal the closure gap when the two cabinet doors are closed side by side to seal the storage space. However, in the related art, the door seal between the two cabinet doors is usually arranged in a fin type, and the fin type door seal is always in contact with the two cabinet doors and generates friction during the opening and closing sliding process of the two cabinet doors, which is easy to cause damage to the door seal, resulting in poor sealing between the two cabinet doors, thereby causing poor sealing effect of the ice cabinet and frost phenomenon, affecting the user experience. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0004] Therefore, the present application provides an ice cabinet, which can avoid the wear of the sealing member between the cabinet door assemblies, thereby improving the heat preservation effect of the ice cabinet and improving the user experience.

[0005] Specifically, the present disclosure is implemented by the following technical solutions:

[0006] The present disclosure provides an ice cabinet, which comprises a cabinet body, a cabinet door assembly and a sealing member. The cabinet body is provided with a receiving cavity and a cabinet opening communicating with the receiving cavity. The cabinet door assembly comprises an upper cabinet door and a lower cabinet door, which are arranged in a spaced manner along the depth direction of the receiving cavity and are respectively connected with the cabinet body in a sliding manner to open or close the cabinet opening. The upper cabinet door is provided with a first abutting protrusion protruding towards the lower cabinet door, and the lower cabinet door is provided with a second abutting protrusion protruding towards the upper cabinet door. The sealing member is fixed to one of the upper cabinet door and the lower cabinet door, and when the cabinet opening is in a closed state, the sealing member is elastically pressed against the first abutting protrusion and the second abutting protrusion along the sliding direction of the upper cabinet door, so as to form a sealing structure between the upper cabinet door and the lower cabinet door.

[0007] The ice cabinet provided by the present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0008] When the freezer provided in this application is in use and the door is closed, the sealing element is laterally pressed against the first and second abutment protrusions along the sliding direction of the door. This bidirectional pressure from the first and second abutment protrusions causes the sealing element to elastically deform, pressing and fitting against the upper and lower doors to form a sealing structure, thus providing a good sealing effect. Simultaneously, when the door is open, the bidirectional pressure from the first and second abutment protrusions is removed, and the sealing element returns to its original shape to separate from one of the door components. This prevents friction caused by the relative movement between the upper and lower doors, reducing wear on the sealing element during door assembly movement, extending the service life of the sealing elements between the door components, improving the freezer's sealing effect, and reducing cold leakage and frost buildup. Furthermore, when the sealing element is not subjected to contact wear during the opening and closing of the door components, the moving resistance of the door components is reduced, allowing users to open and close the door smoothly and effortlessly.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The technical solutions in the embodiments (or, modes of implementation) of the present application will be described clearly and completely in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated.

[0024] If the embodiments of the present application involve directional indications or positional relationships (for example, up, down, left, right, front, back, inner, outer, top, bottom, center, vertical, horizontal, longitudinal, transverse, length, height, counterclockwise, clockwise, axial, radial, circumferential, etc.), such terms are only used to explain the relative positional relationships, movement conditions, etc. between the components in a certain posture (as shown in the drawings). If the certain posture changes, the directional indications or positional relationships also change accordingly. In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. in the embodiments of the present application are only used for convenience of description, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0025] With the development of social economy and the improvement of people's living standards, refrigeration equipment (such as refrigerators, freezers, etc.) has also become an indispensable household appliance in people's daily life. However, there are many types and brands of refrigeration equipment, which makes consumers have many choices. How to gain the favor of consumers and improve product competitiveness has become a problem that refrigeration equipment manufacturers pay more and more attention to.

[0026] The freezer, as a kind of refrigeration equipment, its cabinet door can transmit light, which is convenient for people to observe the stored items inside, and is widely used in supermarkets, stores, shopping malls and other commercial scenarios. Generally, the freezer includes a cabinet body and a cabinet door assembly. The cabinet body has a storage space and a cabinet opening communicating with the storage space. The cabinet door assembly is installed on the cabinet opening to reciprocally open and close relative to the cabinet opening, thereby opening or closing the storage space of the cabinet body.

[0027] In the related art, the cabinet door assembly usually includes two cabinet doors, which can be moved left and right respectively, so that users can take and place items from the left and right sides of the cabinet storage space. At the same time, a door seal is provided at the overlapping part between the two cabinet doors as a sealing member for sealing the closure gap when the two cabinet doors are closed side by side to seal the storage space. However, in the related art, the door seal between the two cabinet doors is usually set as a fin type, and the fin type door seal is always in contact with the two cabinet doors and generates friction during the opening and closing sliding process of the two cabinet doors, which is easy to cause the door seal to be damaged, resulting in poor sealing between the two cabinet doors, and thus poor sealing effect of the freezer and frost phenomenon, affecting the user experience.

[0028] Therefore, the freezer 10 provided by the present application can avoid the wear of the sealing member 130 between the cabinet door assembly 120, thereby improving the heat preservation effect of the freezer 10, avoiding the frost phenomenon of the freezer 10, and improving the user experience.

[0029] The freezer 10 provided by the present application will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 is a structural schematic view of the freezer 10 in the present application when the cabinet opening 116 is in an open state. Figure 2This is a schematic diagram showing the freezer 10 in the closed state with its door opening 116 in this application. This application provides a freezer 10, including a cabinet body 110, a door assembly 120, and a seal 130. The cabinet body 110 is provided with a receiving cavity 111 and a cabinet opening 116 communicating with the receiving cavity 111; the cabinet door assembly 120 includes an upper cabinet door 122 and a lower cabinet door 121, which are spaced apart along the depth direction of the receiving cavity 111 and are slidably connected to the cabinet body 110 to open or close the cabinet opening 116. The upper cabinet door 122 is provided with a first abutting protrusion 126 protruding towards the lower cabinet door 121, and the lower cabinet door 121 is provided with a second abutting protrusion 125 protruding towards the upper cabinet door 122; the sealing member 130 is fixedly disposed on one of the upper cabinet door 122 and the lower cabinet door 121, and when the cabinet opening 116 is in the closed state, the sealing member 130 elastically squeezes against the first abutting protrusion 126 and the second abutting protrusion 125 along the sliding direction of the upper cabinet door 122 to form a sealing structure between the upper cabinet door 122 and the lower cabinet door 121.

[0031] See Figures 2 to 4 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the freezer opening 116 in the closed state in this application. Figure 3 for Figure 2 Sectional view of AA. Figure 4 for Figure 3 Enlarged view at point B. It should be noted that the cabinet body 110 of the freezer 10 can be constructed by splicing together multiple side panels. For example, the cabinet body 110 may have a left side panel 112 and a right side panel 113 spaced apart along the X direction in the figure, and a front side panel 114 and a rear side panel 115 connecting the left side panel 112 and the right side panel 113. Of course, the cabinet body 110 can also be constructed by splicing together other shaped plates such as a U-shaped shell, or by integral molding, etc., and this application does not impose any limitations. The receiving cavity 111 of the cabinet body 110 can be used to form a storage space such as a refrigerator compartment or a freezer compartment for users to store items. The receiving cavity 111 of the freezer 10 may have a cabinet opening 116 at the top of the cabinet body 110 along the Y direction in the figure to facilitate users in taking out and placing items. Correspondingly, the depth direction of the receiving cavity 111 is formed in the opposite direction of Y.

[0032] When the cabinet door assembly 120 is assembled with the cabinet body 110, the lower cabinet door 121 and the upper cabinet door 122 can be connected between the front side plate 114 and the rear side plate 115, respectively, and the front side plate 114 and the rear side plate 115 can support both sides of the lower cabinet door 121 and the upper cabinet door 122, so that the lower cabinet door 121 and the upper cabinet door 122 can slide relative to the cabinet body 110 to open or close the cabinet opening 116. In order to facilitate the relative sliding of the lower cabinet door 121 and the upper cabinet door 122 to open the cabinet opening 116, the lower cabinet door 121 and the upper cabinet door 122 can be spaced apart in the Y direction to avoid movement interference between the lower cabinet door 121 and the upper cabinet door 122 during the opening of the cabinet opening 116. For example, the length direction of the accommodating cavity 111 can be arranged along the X direction in the figure, and the direction indicated by the X direction is defined as the left side, and the direction indicated by the X direction is defined as the right side. When the lower cabinet door 121 moves in the X direction, the upper cabinet door 122 forms at least partial overlap in the Y direction, and the user can open the cabinet opening from the left side. When the upper cabinet door 122 moves in the X direction, the lower cabinet door 121 forms at least partial overlap in the Y direction, and the user can open the cabinet opening from the right side.

[0033] In order to facilitate the sealing of the connecting gap between the overlapping portions of the lower cabinet door 121 and the upper cabinet door 122, a sealing member 130 can be arranged between the overlapping portions of the lower cabinet door 121 and the upper cabinet door 122 to close the overlapping gap between the two cabinet doors. The sealing member 130 can be fixedly connected with one of the upper cabinet door 122 and the lower cabinet door 121, which is not limited in the present application. In order to reduce the wear of the sealing member 130 during the sliding of the two cabinet doors, the sealing member 130 can be gap-fitted with the other one of the upper cabinet door 122 and the lower cabinet door 121 to avoid friction between the cabinet door assembly 120 and the sealing member 130 during the sliding. At the same time, in order to ensure that the cabinet door assembly 120 and the sealing member 130 have good sealing effect when the cabinet opening 111 is in the closed state, a first abutting protrusion 126 protruding towards the lower cabinet door 121 can be arranged on the upper cabinet door 122, and a second abutting protrusion 125 protruding towards the upper cabinet door 122 can be arranged on the lower cabinet door 121, so that when the cabinet opening 116 is in the closed state, the sealing member 130 is elastically squeezed by the first abutting protrusion 126 and the second abutting protrusion 125 in the sliding direction of the upper cabinet door 122, respectively, to form a sealing structure between the upper cabinet door 122 and the lower cabinet door 121.

[0034] Referring to Figure 5 , Figure 5Figure 8 is a schematic view of the cooperation structure between the cabinet door assembly 120 and the sealing member 130 when the cabinet opening 116 is in the open state. As an example, the sealing member 130 is fixed to the lower cabinet door 121, and the lower cabinet door 121 is moved to close the cabinet opening 116 along the X direction. The lower cabinet door 121 drives the sealing member 130 and the second abutting protrusion 125 to move along the X direction together, so as to gradually approach the first abutting protrusion 126 of the upper cabinet door 122. When the lower cabinet door 121 is in sealing cooperation with the left side plate 112 of the cabinet body 110, the sealing member 130 is pressed by the first abutting protrusion 126 of the upper cabinet door 122. Referring to Figure 4 , Figure 4 Figure 9 is a schematic view of the cooperation structure between the cabinet door assembly 120 and the sealing member 130 when the cabinet opening 116 is in the closed state. At this time, the sealing member 130 is pressed by the first abutting protrusion 126 and the second abutting protrusion 125 in the X direction, so that the sealing member 130 is elastically deformed. On the one hand, the sealing member 130 is tightly attached to the first abutting protrusion 126 and the second abutting protrusion 125 through elastic deformation, so as to seal the gap of the cabinet door assembly 120 along the Y direction. On the other hand, the sealing member 130 is elastically deformed to increase the size of the sealing member 130 along the Y direction, so that the sealing member 130 is pressed between the upper cabinet door 122 and the lower cabinet door 121 along the Y direction, thereby sealing the gap of the cabinet door assembly 120 along the X direction. In this way, through the bidirectional side pressure of the first abutting protrusion 126 and the second abutting protrusion 125 on the sealing member 130 along the X direction, the sealing member 130 and the cabinet door assembly 120 have good sealing effect when the cabinet opening 116 is in the closed state.

[0035] Of course, in other embodiments, the sealing member 130 can also be fixed to the upper cabinet door 122, and the sealing member 130 and the first abutting protrusion 126 are driven by the upper cabinet door 122 to move along the X direction together, so as to gradually approach the second abutting protrusion 125 of the lower cabinet door 121, thereby realizing the elastic deformation of the sealing member 130 to form a sealing structure between the upper cabinet door 122 and the lower cabinet door 121, which will not be described herein. Correspondingly, the number of the cabinet door assembly 120 can be one, two, three or four, etc., which can be set according to actual needs, and the present application does not make any limitation.

[0036] Therefore, the ice cabinet 10 provided by the application can form a sealing structure between the sealing member 130 and the cabinet door assembly 120 in the closed state of the cabinet opening 116 through the bidirectional side pressure of the first abutting protrusion 126 and the second abutting protrusion 125 on the sealing member 130, so that the ice cabinet 10 has good sealing effect. Meanwhile, in the open state of the cabinet opening 116, the bidirectional side pressure of the first abutting protrusion 126 and the second abutting protrusion 125 on the sealing member 130 is cancelled, and the sealing member 130 restores the elastic deformation to separate from one of the cabinet door assembly 120, so that the sealing member 130 will not be rubbed due to the relative movement between the upper cabinet door 122 and the lower cabinet door 121, thereby reducing the wear of the sealing member 130 during the movement of the cabinet door assembly 120, prolonging the service life of the sealing member 130, improving the sealing effect of the ice cabinet 10, and reducing the cold leakage and frosting phenomenon of the ice cabinet 10.

[0037] In addition, through the bidirectional side pressure of the first abutting protrusion 126 and the second abutting protrusion 125 on the sealing member 130, the movement distance between the upper cabinet door 122 and the lower cabinet door 121 can also be limited, so as to avoid the sealing member 130 from being pulled out of the overlapping part between the upper cabinet door 122 and the lower cabinet door 121 in the Y direction during the movement of the cabinet door assembly 120, thereby causing sealing failure. As an example, the first abutting protrusion 126 and the second abutting protrusion 125 can be protrusions, ribs or fins, and the application does not make any limitation.

[0038] Referring to Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, in order to further improve the sealing effect between the cabinet door assembly 120 and the sealing member 130, the upper cabinet door 122 is provided with a first sealing cooperation part 124 facing the lower cabinet door 121, and the first abutting protrusion 126 is protruded from the first sealing cooperation part 124. The lower cabinet door 121 is provided with a second sealing cooperation part 123 facing the upper cabinet door 122, and the second abutting protrusion 125 is protruded from the second sealing cooperation part 123. The sealing member 130 is fixed to one of the first sealing cooperation part 124 and the second sealing cooperation part 123, and elastically extruded with the other one when the cabinet opening 116 is in the closed state.

[0039] It should be noted that the first sealing cooperation part 124 and the second sealing cooperation part 123 can extrude the sealing member 130 in the Y direction when the cabinet opening 116 is in the closed state, so as to further increase the extrusion force between the sealing member 130 and the cabinet door assembly 120, and improve the sealing effect between the sealing member 130 and the cabinet door assembly.

[0040] As an example, referring to Figure 6In the depth direction of the accommodating cavity 111, the height H of the sealing member 130 is not less than the distance H0 between the first sealing fitting part 124 and the second sealing fitting part 123. In the Y direction, the distance H1 between the second sealing fitting part 123 and the upper cabinet door 122 is greater than the height H of the sealing member 130, and the distance H2 between the first sealing fitting part 124 and the lower cabinet door 121 is also greater than the height H of the sealing member 130.

[0041] In this way, in the closed state of the cabinet opening 116, the sealing member 130 is pressed by the first abutting protrusion 126 and the second abutting protrusion 125 in the X direction, and the lateral pressing of the first abutting protrusion 126 and the second abutting protrusion 125 on the sealing member 130 also limits the movement distance between the upper cabinet door 122 and the lower cabinet door 121, so that the second sealing fitting part 123 coincides with the first sealing fitting part 124 in the Y direction to press the sealing member 130 in the Y direction, thereby increasing the pressing force of the sealing member 130 between the cabinet door assembly 120, and improving the sealing effect between the sealing member 130 and the cabinet door assembly 120. As an example, the second sealing fitting part 123 and the first sealing fitting part 124 can be respectively provided as protruding blocks, protruding ribs or baffle plates, etc., which are not limited in the present application.

[0042] Meanwhile, referring to Figure 6 In the open state of the cabinet opening 116, taking the sealing member 130 fixed in the second sealing fitting part 123 as an example, when the upper cabinet door 122 moves in the X direction, the first sealing fitting part 124 and the second sealing fitting part 123 can be dislocated in the X direction, so that the sealing member 130 is between the door panel of the upper cabinet door 122 and the second sealing fitting part 123. At this time, since the distance between the door panel of the upper cabinet door 122 and the second sealing fitting part 123 in the Y direction is greater than the height of the sealing member 130, the sealing member 130 is no longer pressed, and the top of the sealing member 130 can have a gap in the Y direction with the door panel of the upper cabinet door 122, so that the upper cabinet door 122 does not need to contact the sealing member 130 when moving in the X direction, thereby avoiding the abrasion of the sealing member 130 and reducing the moving resistance of the cabinet door assembly 120, facilitating the user to open and close the cabinet door smoothly. Similarly, when the lower cabinet door 121 moves in the X direction, the second sealing fitting part 123 moves the sealing member 130 together, so that the sealing member 130 moves out of the second sealing fitting part 123 and the first sealing fitting part 124, and is between the second sealing fitting part 123 and the door panel of the upper cabinet door 122, so that the sealing member 130 does not need to be pressed and abraded during the movement of the cabinet door, thereby prolonging the service life of the sealing member 130 and improving the insulation effect of the freezer 10.

[0043] In other embodiments, the sealing member 130 can be fixed in the first sealing fitting part 124, and the distance between the first sealing fitting part 124 and the lower cabinet door 121 along the Y direction is also greater than the height of the sealing member 130. The movement process is the same as the above, and the present application will not be repeated.

[0044] In some embodiments, the first sealing fitting part 124 and the second sealing fitting part 123 can also be respectively provided as door frames having recesses for inserting the cabinet doors, so as to be respectively inserted in the side portions of the upper cabinet door 122 and the lower cabinet door 121. In this way, when the cabinet opening is in the closed state, the door frames can be respectively sealed and fitted with the left and right side plates of the cabinet body 110, so as to improve the sealing effect between the cabinet door assembly 120 and the cabinet body 110 and reduce the cold leakage of the freezer 10. As an example, the second sealing fitting part 123 and the first sealing fitting part 124 can be respectively provided as frame strips with elasticity. The sealing member 130 can be fixed with the second sealing fitting part 123 or the first sealing fitting part 124 by means of gluing or inserting, and the present application will not be limited.

[0045] Referring to Figure 5 In some embodiments, in order to facilitate the movement of the sealing member 130 between the second sealing fitting part 123 and the first sealing fitting part 124 and the lateral extrusion sealing, the first sealing fitting part 124 is provided with a first connecting side connected with the upper cabinet door 122 and a first sealing side opposite to the first connecting side, and the first abutting protrusion 126 is arranged on the first sealing side. The first connecting side is provided with a first guide part 128, and the first guide part 128 is arranged obliquely to the upper cabinet door 122. In this way, during the movement of the upper cabinet door 122 along the X direction, the sealing member 130 will move relative to the upper cabinet door 122 along the first guide part 128, so as to enter between the second sealing fitting part 123 and the first sealing fitting part 124 and form the sealing extrusion. As an example, the first guide part 128 can be provided as an inclined surface or an arc surface, so as to guide the movement of the sealing member 130 and reduce the resistance of the sealing member 130 entering between the two door frames.

[0046] Referring to Figure 5In some embodiments, to facilitate the movement of the sealing member 130 between the second sealing fitting part 123 and the first sealing fitting part 124, the second sealing fitting part 123 is provided with a second connecting side connected to the lower cabinet door 121 and a second sealing side opposite to the second connecting side, and the second abutting protrusion 125 is arranged on the second sealing side. The second connecting side is provided with a second guide part 127, and the second guide part 127 is arranged obliquely to the lower cabinet door 121. In this way, when the sealing member 130 is fixed to the first sealing fitting part 124, during the movement of the lower cabinet door 121 along the X direction, the sealing member 130 will move along the second guide part 127 relative to the lower cabinet door 121 to enter between the second sealing fitting part 123 and the first sealing fitting part 124, forming a sealing extrusion. As an example, the second guide part 127 can be arranged as an inclined surface or an arc surface to guide the movement of the sealing member 130 and reduce the resistance of the sealing member 130 entering between the two door frames.

[0047] Referring to Figures 6 to 7 In some embodiments, to improve the sealing effect between the cabinet door assembly 120, the sealing member 130 can be arranged as an air bag, wherein the air bag includes a fixed part 131 and a deformation part 132. The fixed part 131 is connected to the second sealing fitting part 123 and forms a surface contact to increase the connection area between the air bag and the second sealing fitting part 123, thereby increasing the sealing effect and connection reliability between the air bag and the second sealing fitting part 123. The deformation part 132 is arranged in an arc shape, both ends of the deformation part 132 are connected to the fixed part 131, and part of the deformation part 132 protrudes from the fixed part 131 to the first sealing fitting part 124 to form a bag cavity 133 with the fixed part 131. In this way, the bag cavity 133 formed by the deformation part 132 can increase the elastic deformation range of the air bag to increase the extrusion force between the air bag and the cabinet door assembly 120, thereby improving the sealing effect. In addition, the air bag can also produce a buffering effect during the movement of the cabinet door assembly 120 to buffer the relative impact force between the lower cabinet door 121 and the upper cabinet door 122, thereby avoiding damage to the cabinet door assembly 120 and reducing the noise of opening and closing the door. As an example, the air bag can be arranged as a closed semicircular structure, a closed elliptical structure, etc., which is not limited in the present application.

[0048] Referring to Figure 7In some embodiments, the air bag further comprises a supporting portion 134, which is arranged in the cavity 133 and connected between the fixed portion 131 and the deformed portion 132. It should be noted that during the extrusion of the deformed portion 132, the supporting portion 134 can be elastically deformed together with the deformed portion 132, so as to provide a sealing extrusion force between the door assembly 120, thereby improving the sealing effect. In addition, the supporting portion 134 supports the deformed portion 132 inside the cavity 133, and can also assist the deformed portion 132 to recover the elastic deformation when the sealing element 130 moves out of the two door frames, so as to provide a sealing extrusion force when entering the two door frames next time. The supporting portion 134 can be arranged in any shape such as a straight line, an arc or a wave shape, which is not limited in the present application.

[0049] Referring to Figure 8 and Figure 9 In other embodiments, the deformed portion 132 can also be arranged in a ring shape, the outer wall of the deformed portion 132 is connected with the fixed portion 131, and the hollow part of the deformed portion 132 forms the cavity.

Of course, the sealing element 130 can also be an elastic element of other shapes, which is not limited in the present application.

[0050] Referring to Figure 2 In some embodiments, in order to increase the refrigeration space of the refrigerator 10, the height of the rear side plate 115 is greater than the height of the front side plate 114 in the depth direction of the containing cavity 111, and the lower cabinet door 121 and the upper cabinet door 122 are respectively arranged in an inclined manner along the direction from the front side plate 114 to the rear side plate 115. In this way, a containing space inclined along the Y direction is formed at the top of the cabinet body 110, and this part of the containing space can store and converge the cold air prepared by the refrigerator 10, so as to form a larger refrigeration and heat preservation layer at the top of the refrigerator 10, thereby improving the heat preservation effect of the refrigerator 10. In addition, the cabinet door assembly 120 of the refrigerator 10 is usually arranged as a transparent glass plate, so that the cabinet door assembly 120 arranged in an inclined manner can also increase the display area of the internal space of the refrigerator 10, so that the user can see more items stored in the refrigerator 10, thereby facilitating the selection and purchase.

[0051] Referring to Figure 10 , Figure 10 This is a structural schematic view of the cabinet door and the sealing element 130 in the present application arranged in an arc shape. As an example, the lower cabinet door 121 and the upper cabinet door 122 are respectively arranged in an arc structure, and the arc structure is arranged in a concave manner towards the inside of the containing cavity 111. In this way, the cabinet door assembly 120 forms a reverse arc structure relative to the cabinet body 110, and the reverse arc structure of the cabinet door assembly 120 can focus the user's line of sight and increase the display space of the internal storage space of the refrigerator 10, so as to provide a larger selection and purchase angle for the user, thereby enabling the user to better observe the information of the items displayed in the refrigerator 10.

[0052] In addition, in other embodiments, the lower cabinet door 121 and the upper cabinet door 122 can also be configured in a planar shape or an arc convex shape, and the present application does not make any limitation.

[0053] In some embodiments, in order to adapt to the sealing requirements of different shapes of the cabinet door assembly 120, the seal 130 can be configured in multiple shapes. For example, when the cabinet door is arc-shaped, the seal 130 can be configured in an arc shape that is adapted to the cabinet door, and the sealing groove extending along the length direction of the seal 130 is also configured in an arc shape to be installed between the cabinet body 110 and the cabinet door of the freezer 10. In addition, when the cabinet door assembly 120 is configured as a planar glass, the seal 130 can also be configured in a straight linear shape, and the present application does not make any limitation.
