[0023] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
[0024] See Figure 1 , Figure 1 This invention illustrates a flat-top unit refrigerator structure provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The refrigerator structure includes a refrigerator body 1, with an adjacent mechanical chamber 2 and an air duct chamber 3 above the refrigerator body 1. The mechanical chamber 2 is connected to the outside, and the air duct chamber 3 is connected to the interior of the refrigerator body 1. A plurality of first through holes 11 for pipes to pass through are provided between the mechanical chamber 2 and the air duct chamber 3.
[0025] In this embodiment, the main body 1 of the freezer is a freezer or chilled container for storing items. The mechanical compartment 2 houses the refrigeration components such as the compressor, condenser, condenser fan, and dryer filter. The air duct compartment 3 houses the evaporator and other related components. The mechanical compartment 2 is connected to the outside environment, using the compressor and condenser to compress outside air into cold air, which is then connected to the air duct compartment 3 via a pipe through the first through-hole 11. Simultaneously, the compressor and condenser dissipate heat to the outside environment. The air duct compartment 3 is connected to the interior of the main body 1 of the freezer, allowing the cold air supplied by the mechanical compartment to be conducted into the interior of the main body 1 via the fan and other components.
[0026] In this embodiment, the mechanical chamber 2 and the air duct chamber 3 are arranged adjacently above the main body of the freezer, so that the mechanical chamber 2 and the air duct chamber 3 are placed on the same plane. This can significantly shorten the connection distance between the mechanical chamber and the air duct chamber, thereby reducing refrigeration loss and improving the effective space utilization of the freezer, and the appearance is coordinated and beautiful.
[0027] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the machine room 2 is equipped with a compressor 21, a condenser 22 and a condensing fan 23. The compressor 21 and the condenser 22 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the machine room 2, and the condensing fan 23 is fixedly connected to one side of the condenser 22.
[0028] In this embodiment, the refrigeration function of the freezer is achieved by installing a compressor 21, a condenser 22 and a condenser fan 23 in the machine room. At the same time, the layout of this embodiment can effectively save space.
[0029] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the machine room 2 is also provided with a mounting plate 24, which is fixedly connected to the main body 1 of the freezer, and there is a gap between the mounting plate 24 and the top plate of the main body 1 of the freezer. The mounting plate 24 serves as the bottom of the machine room 2.
[0030] In this embodiment, since the components installed in the mechanical chamber 2 require heat dissipation, the mechanical chamber is separated from the main body of the freezer by setting up the mounting plate 24, which can reduce the heat conduction from the mechanical chamber 2 to the main body of the freezer, thereby ensuring the cooling effect.
[0031] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the air duct chamber 3 is provided with an evaporator 31, an evaporator fan 32 and an air duct plate 33; the air duct plate 33 is fixedly connected to the side of the air duct chamber 3, the air duct plate 33 is provided with a ventilation opening adapted to the evaporator fan 32, and the air duct plate 33 is fixedly connected to the evaporator 31 and the evaporator fan 32.
[0032] In this embodiment, the air duct chamber 3 is equipped with an air duct plate 33 to accommodate the evaporator 31 and the evaporator fan 32, and the vents allow the evaporator fan 32 to blow cold air into the interior of the freezer body 1. It should be understood that... Figure 3 Only a portion of the structure of the flat-top refrigeration unit is shown; other structural components can be found in other accompanying drawings.
[0033] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the evaporator 31 and the evaporator fan 32 are fixedly connected to the same side of the duct plate 33. Both the evaporator 31 and the evaporator fan 32 are located on the upper side of the duct plate 33 to leave sufficient duct space.
[0034] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the air duct chamber 3 is also provided with an inner box cover 34, the inner box cover 34 is provided with a plurality of ventilation holes 341, the inner box cover 34 is fixedly connected to the main body 1 of the freezer, and the inner box cover 34 serves as the bottom of the air duct chamber 3.
[0035] In this embodiment, by setting an inner cover plate 34 to conceal the air duct structure, the interior of the freezer body 1 becomes more aesthetically pleasing. At the same time, the inner cover plate 34 has multiple ventilation holes 341 without affecting the airflow within the air duct chamber.
[0036] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, an isolation plate 5 is also provided between the air duct chamber 3 and the mechanical chamber 2. The isolation plate 5 has a second through hole 51 that matches the first through hole 11. By setting the isolation plate 5, the heat conduction from the mechanical chamber 2 to the air duct chamber 3 is reduced, thereby ensuring the cooling effect.
[0037] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the upper part of the machine room 2 is hollowed out, and the side of the machine room 2 is provided with heat dissipation holes 25 to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the machine room to the outside.
[0038] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, a protective plate 12 is also provided on the outside of the main body 1 of the freezer to protect the main body 1 of the freezer, and at the same time make the outside of the main body 1 of the freezer more beautiful and make the overall structure of the freezer more coordinated.
[0039] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, a decorative panel 13 is provided on the side of the main body 1 of the freezer near the front of the main body 1. The decorative panel 13 can be a light-emitting structure such as a light panel to further improve the overall aesthetics of the freezer structure.
[0040] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0041] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
