[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments.
[0022] like Figures 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a refrigerator body 1. Inside the refrigerator body 1, a first refrigeration chamber 6, a second refrigeration chamber 5, and a variable temperature chamber 4 are arranged side-by-side. A refrigeration evaporator is coiled around the outer side of both the first refrigeration chamber 6 and the second refrigeration chamber 5. A first refrigeration evaporator 13 and a second refrigeration evaporator 14 are installed on the first refrigeration chamber 6. A third refrigeration evaporator 15 and a fourth refrigeration evaporator 12 are installed on the second refrigeration chamber 5. The first refrigeration evaporator 13 and the fourth refrigeration evaporator 12 are connected in series, and the second refrigeration evaporator 14 and the third refrigeration evaporator 15 are connected in series. The first refrigeration evaporator 13 and the third refrigeration evaporator 15 are respectively connected to a first capillary tube 18. The first capillary tube 18 and the second capillary tube 19 are connected in series. Both the first capillary tube 18 and the second capillary tube 19 are connected to the two-position three-way solenoid valve 17. The fourth refrigeration evaporator 12 and the second refrigeration evaporator 14 are connected to the low-pressure solenoid valve 20. A heating element is installed on the outside of the temperature-changing cavity 4. The compressor assembly 10 and the condenser 16 are connected in series between the two-position three-way solenoid valve 17 and the low-pressure solenoid valve 20. The first refrigeration evaporator 13, the second refrigeration evaporator 14, the third refrigeration evaporator 15, the fourth refrigeration evaporator 12, the fifth refrigeration evaporator, the heating element, the two-position three-way solenoid valve 17 and the low-pressure solenoid valve 20 are all electrically connected to the main control board 11 on the refrigerator body 1.
[0023] Specifically, the volume of the variable temperature chamber 4 is smaller than that of the first cooling chamber 6 and the second cooling chamber 5, so it can hold some smaller items. The first cooling chamber 6, the second cooling chamber 5 and the variable temperature chamber 4 can all be controlled independently by the main control board 11. The variable temperature chamber 4 can be used as a heating and heat preservation chamber to keep food warm or heat it when used outdoors in winter.
[0024] As the cooling control principle in this embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, the evaporator pipe lengths of the first refrigeration chamber 6 and the second refrigeration chamber 5 are already matched, and two sets of evaporators are pre-embedded in the two refrigeration chambers.
[0025] Both the first refrigeration chamber 6 and the second refrigeration chamber 5 can be converted into a freezer chamber or a refrigerator chamber, depending on the evaporator used. The refrigerator in this embodiment can be configured with Mode 1 and Mode 2, using two evaporator systems connected in parallel. The refrigerant flow direction is changed by switching the two-position three-way solenoid valve 17 and the low-pressure solenoid valve 20, thus switching between the two refrigeration systems. In Mode 1, the first refrigeration chamber 6 is the freezer and the second refrigeration chamber 5 is the refrigerator; in Mode 2, the first refrigeration chamber 6 is the refrigerator and the second refrigeration chamber 5 is the freezer.
[0026] Specifically:
[0027] Mode one: when the two-position three-way solenoid valve 17 switches to the flow path of the second capillary tube 19, and the low-pressure end solenoid valve 20 switches to the flow path of the second refrigeration evaporator 14, the refrigerant generated by the compressor assembly 10 and the condenser 16 flows through the second refrigeration evaporator 14, the third refrigeration evaporator 15 and the second capillary tube 19, so as to achieve the effect that the second refrigeration cavity 5 is refrigerated and the first refrigeration cavity 6 is frozen.
[0028] Mode two: when the two-position three-way solenoid valve 17 switches to the flow path of the first capillary tube 18, and the low-pressure end solenoid valve 20 switches to the flow path of the fourth refrigeration evaporator 12, the refrigerant generated by the compressor assembly 10 and the condenser 16 flows through the first refrigeration evaporator 13, the fourth refrigeration evaporator 12 and the first capillary tube 18, so as to achieve the effect that the first refrigeration cavity 6 is refrigerated and the second refrigeration cavity 5 is frozen.
[0029] The first temperature sensor, the second temperature sensor and the third temperature sensor are respectively installed in the first refrigeration cavity 6, the second refrigeration cavity 5 and the variable temperature cavity 4 in the embodiment, and are respectively used for detecting and controlling freezing, refrigeration and heating of the storage (mode one); refrigeration, freezing and heating of the storage (mode two)

The default mode is mode one.
[0032] In mode one, the two-position three-way solenoid valve and the low-pressure end solenoid valve both receive positive pulse signals, that is, the second capillary tube 19 is connected, the first capillary tube 18 is not connected, the freezing chamber is started or stopped by the first temperature sensor, and the second temperature sensor of the refrigeration chamber can only display the actual temperature.
[0033] In mode two, the two-position three-way solenoid valve and the low-pressure end solenoid valve both receive negative pulse signals, that is, the first capillary tube 18 is connected, the second capillary tube 19 is not connected, the refrigeration chamber can only display the actual temperature by the first temperature sensor, and the freezing chamber is started or stopped by the second temperature sensor; the controllable cold temperature range is ±20℃.
[0034] The display panel has a bright dot in the lower right corner of the temperature display. If it is mode one, the left temperature display is lighted in the lower right corner of the dot, which represents that the left is the freezing chamber and the temperature is controllable. If it is mode two, the right temperature display is lighted in the lower right corner of the dot, which represents that the right is the freezing chamber and the temperature is controllable.
[0035] The power-on state long press "+" and "-" key and set key 3 seconds to start or close the heating control.
[0036] The controllable temperature range of the temperature-variable cavity 4 is 25-50℃, the actual temperature data is returned by the third temperature sensor, and the color of the heating icon on the display panel is red, indicating that the heating function is running.
