[0078] The hook portion 13211 is configured to be movably connected to the mounting members 131 at different heights to adjust the height of the shelf member 132 in the cabinet liner 111.
[0079] Through the above arrangement, the refrigerator 100 of the embodiment of the present application, through the arrangement of the shelf assembly 130, the shelf member 132 is movably connected to the mounting members 131 at different heights, so that the user can freely adjust the height of the shelf according to the height of different food materials or articles, can adapt to food materials of various sizes, and facilitates the user to store food materials of different heights, thereby improving the space utilization rate of the refrigeration chamber 1111, convenient operation, and strong practicality; and the design structure of the assembly is simple, which not only reduces the manufacturing cost, but also improves the reliability and durability of the device, at the same time, the entire assembly occupies a small space, and has good appearance.
[0080] It should be noted that the following specific structures are described.
[0081] [Cabinet 110]
[0082] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The refrigerator 100 of the embodiment of the present application can comprise a cabinet 110 and a door body 120. The cabinet 110 can be configured with a refrigeration chamber. The refrigeration chamber has an opening for storing food materials and the like. The number of refrigeration chambers can be one or more. When the number of refrigeration chambers is more than one, the plurality of refrigeration chambers can be divided into a refrigeration chamber 1111, a freezing chamber, or a variable temperature chamber, etc.
[0083] Exemplarily, the cabinet 110 can comprise a cabinet shell and a cabinet liner 111, and the cabinet shell is used to define the outer boundary of the refrigerator 100. The cabinet liner 111 can be arranged in the cabinet shell and connected with the cabinet shell. The cabinet liner 111 can be recessed inwardly to form a refrigeration chamber. The cabinet shell and the cabinet liner 111 can be filled with a thermal insulation layer, and the thermal insulation layer can thermally insulate the refrigeration chamber, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the refrigerator 100.
[0084] The cabinet 110 adopts a hollow structure of a cuboid. It can be understood that, in other embodiments, the cabinet 110 can also adopt a hollow shell structure of other shapes.
[0085] In the present application, the inner tank 111 in the refrigeration chamber 1111 can be the inner tank 111.
[0086] [Door body 120]
[0087] It should be noted that the door body 120 can be connected with the cabinet 110, and is used to open or close the refrigeration chamber.
[0088] The door body 120 is arranged on the front surface of the cabinet 110 to close the refrigeration chamber. The door body 120 is configured to open and close the refrigeration chamber, that is, the door body 120 can open and close the front side opening of the cabinet 110. The door body 120 can be arranged corresponding to the refrigeration chamber, that is, each refrigeration chamber corresponds to one or more door bodies 120. The number of refrigeration chambers and door bodies 120 and the function of the refrigeration chamber can be selected according to the actual situation. The same refrigeration chamber can correspond to one door body 120. Alternatively, the same refrigeration chamber can correspond to two door bodies 120.
[0089] In some possible implementation manners of the embodiments of the present application, the door body 120 can be rotatably connected with the cabinet 110 around the height direction of the cabinet 110. The door body 120 can be pulled or pushed to rotate relative to the cabinet 110 to open or close the refrigeration chamber.
[0090] It should be noted that the height direction of the cabinet 110 refers to the height direction of the cabinet 110 when the refrigerator 100 is normally used, for example, the vertical direction Y shown in FIG. 1. Figure 1 Exemplarily, the door body 120 can be rotatably connected with the cabinet 110 through a hinge.
[0091] In some embodiments, the door body 120 is a rotary door body 120 structure. The door body 120 is rotatably arranged on the front side of the cabinet 110, and at this time, the door body 120 can be used as a common door structure, such as a refrigeration door, a freezing door, etc.
[0092] Specifically, the door body 120 and the cabinet 110 can be connected through a hinge, so that the door body 120 of the refrigerator 100 can rotate around the axis of the hinge, realize the opening and closing of the door body 120 of the refrigerator 100, and further open and close the corresponding refrigeration chamber.
[0093] In some embodiments, the door body 120 can also be a sliding door body 120 structure. The door body 120 can be slidably arranged at the front side of the box body 110, and the door body 120 can be used as a drawer door at this time. Specifically, guide rails (not shown in the figure) are respectively arranged on the left and right inner side walls of the box body, and the door body 120 is respectively connected with the two guide rails, and then the door body 120 is extended and retracted through the guide rails, so as to realize the sliding function of the door body 120 and realize the opening and closing of the refrigeration compartment.
[0094] In some embodiments, a refrigeration assembly (not shown in the figure) is arranged in the box body 110, and the refrigeration assembly is used to provide refrigeration for the inside of the refrigerator 100 to maintain a low-temperature environment in each refrigeration compartment.
[0095] The refrigeration assembly includes a compressor, a condenser, an evaporator, a throttling device, etc. The specific structure and connection relationship of the refrigeration assembly can refer to the refrigeration assembly in the related art, and will not be described here. The evaporator provides different cooling capacity to different types of storage spaces, so that the temperatures in different types of storage spaces are also different. For example, the temperature in the refrigeration compartment 1111 is generally between 2°C and 10°C, preferably between 4°C and 7°C. The temperature range in the freezer compartment is generally between -22°C and -14°C. The optimal storage temperature of different types of goods is not the same, and therefore the suitable storage space is also not the same. For example, vegetable food is suitable for storage in the refrigeration compartment 1111 or the fresh-keeping space, and meat food is suitable for storage in the freezer compartment.
[0096] [Shelf assembly 130]
[0097] Figure 6 A structure schematic diagram of a second perspective of a box inner liner in a refrigerator provided by an embodiment of the present application, Figure 7 A structure schematic diagram of a third perspective of a box inner liner in a refrigerator provided by an embodiment of the present application.
[0098] As Figures 1 to 7 shown, it should be noted that the shelf assembly 130 provided by the embodiment of the present application is installed in the box inner liner 111, and the purpose of the shelf assembly 130 is to carry food materials that need to be refrigerated.
[0099] In actual use, the heights of the food materials that need to be refrigerated are different, and in the current situation, the distance between the two shelf assemblies 130 is fixed, which leads to the fact that the higher food materials cannot be placed on the shelf assembly 130 for refrigeration in the refrigeration compartment 1111. In addition, some refrigerators 100 in the prior art use an electrically driven way to adjust the height of the shelf assembly 130, but this structure has a high cost and occupies a large space.
[0100] Therefore, the shelf assembly 130 in the present application can be adjusted in height, has a smaller occupied space, and has a lower cost. The specific scheme is as follows:
[0101] In some embodiments, the shelf assembly 130 can include a mounting piece 131 arranged on the inner tank 111, wherein the mounting piece 131 can be multiple, and the multiple mounting pieces 131 can be arranged on the inner tank 111 along the height direction of the cabinet 110, and the distance between the upper and lower mounting pieces 131 can be adjusted according to actual conditions, which is not limited here.
[0102] In some embodiments, the mounting piece 131 is detachably mounted on the inner tank 111, and the detachable mounting piece 131 facilitates installation by the manufacturer.
[0103] For example, the detachable mounting piece 131 can be a snap-fit mounting piece, a bolt mounting piece, etc., which is not limited here.
[0104] In some embodiments, the shelf assembly 130 can further include a shelf piece 132 for carrying food materials. It should be noted that the mounting piece 131 provides a stable support point for the shelf piece 132 and can be movably connected to a mounting piece 131 at a certain height, so that the height of the shelf piece 132 in the inner tank 111 can be adjusted to match food materials of different heights, thereby increasing the capacity of the refrigeration compartment 1111 and improving the space utilization.
[0105] It should be noted that the shelf piece 132 in the shelf assembly 130 in the present application is a hanging type, wherein the mounting piece 131 provides different heights of support for the hanging shelf piece 132. Compared with the protruding tank ribs in the refrigeration inner tank, the refrigeration inner tank in the present application has higher aesthetic degree and can accommodate more food materials.
[0106] In addition, the shelf piece 132 has a hook portion 13211, and the hooking design makes the shelf piece 132 easy to disassemble, which is more convenient for users to clean or maintain the inside of the equipment. This design reduces the cleaning dead angle and maintains the hygiene of the refrigeration equipment. In addition, the hooking design is usually simple in structure and low in manufacturing cost.
[0107] Continuing to refer to Figures 1 to 7 In some embodiments, the mounting piece 131 is arranged on the side wall of the inner tank 111 and located away from the door body 120.
[0108] The above technical solution has the following advantages or beneficial effects: arranging the mounting piece 131 on the side wall of the inner tank 111 and away from the door body 120 can effectively optimize the space utilization, reduce the use interference, improve the stability and aesthetics of the equipment, and also help to improve the refrigeration effect and user experience.
[0109] It should be noted that the side wall is generally a more stable and solid part of the refrigeration device, and fixing the mounting member 131 here can improve the overall stability and durability. This layout can make the interior of the refrigeration device look more neat and orderly, and improve the overall aesthetics.
[0110] In some embodiments, the box liner 111 has a front side, a rear side, a left side, and a right side, wherein the front side is covered by the door body 120, the rear side is adjacent to the rear side of the box body 110, and correspondingly, the left side of the box liner 111 is adjacent to the rear side of the box body 110, and the right side of the box liner 111 is adjacent to the right side of the box body 110.
[0111] Exemplarily, the mounting member 131 can be arranged on the rear side.
[0112] In other embodiments, the mounting member 131 can be arranged on the left side, the right side, and away from the front side, which means that the mounting member 131 is arranged towards the rear, so that the position of the mounting member 131 does not hinder the user from taking and placing food materials, and the convenience and aesthetics are higher.
[0113] Continuing to refer to Figures 1 to 7 In some embodiments, the plurality of mounting members 131 is at least two groups of mounting members 131, and the at least two groups of mounting members 131 are arranged on the box liner 111 along the height direction of the box body 110;
[0114] One group of mounting members 131 in the at least two groups of mounting members 131 includes at least two mounting portions 1311, and the at least two mounting portions 1311 in one group of mounting members 131 are arranged on opposite side walls of the box liner 111, respectively.
[0115] The shelf member 132 is movably arranged on one group of mounting members 131.
[0116] The above technical solution has the following advantages or beneficial effects: through the reasonable interval arrangement of the plurality of groups of mounting members 131, the user can flexibly adjust the distance of each layer according to the height requirement of different articles, and can realize multi-layer storage. This design allows the user to install the shelf member 132 at different heights as needed, thereby maximizing the use of height space and helping to improve the overall storage efficiency of the refrigeration device.
[0117] It should be noted that arranging the two mounting portions 1311 in one group of mounting members 131 on the opposite side walls of the box liner 111, respectively, can provide better support and stability for the shelf member 132. This symmetrical support structure helps to bear heavier articles and reduces the shaking or tilting of the shelf member 132.
[0118] In addition, the movable design of the shelf member 132 makes it easy for the user to install, disassemble, or adjust the shelf without the need for complex tools or operations. This convenience improves the user experience and makes the device easier to use and maintain.
[0119] In some embodiments, at least two of the mounting members 131 are respectively arranged on the left side and the right side of the inner container 111.
[0120] With reference back to Figures 1 to 7 In some embodiments, the mounting members 131 are arranged in the refrigeration chamber 1111.
[0121] The hook members 13211 are movably hooked to the mounting members 1311.
[0122] The technical solution has the following advantages or beneficial effects: The shelf member 132 is connected to the mounting member 131 through the hook members 13211. This hooking design makes the installation and disassembly of the shelf very simple, without the need for complex tools or tedious operations, and users can easily adjust the position of the shelf. The hooking design generally provides good stability, ensuring that the shelf does not easily fall off or tilt when carrying items. The cooperation between the mounting members 1311 and the hook members 13211 can enhance the firmness of the connection and improve the safety of use.
[0123] It should be noted that by flexibly adjusting the height and position of the shelf, users can more effectively utilize the space inside the refrigeration equipment. This design helps to maximize storage capacity and adapt to items of different sizes and shapes.
[0124] In addition, the hooking design makes the shelf member 132 easy to disassemble, making it more convenient for users to clean or maintain the interior of the equipment. This design reduces cleaning dead angles and maintains the hygiene of the refrigeration equipment. The hooking design is generally simple in structure and low in manufacturing cost.
[0125] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the mounting member 131 and the mounting member 1311 are connected in an integrated connection manner, and in other embodiments, the mounting member 131 and the mounting member 1311 can also be connected in other connection manners, as long as the connection manner can fixedly connect the mounting member 131 and the mounting member 1311 to achieve the purpose of the embodiment, and here, the connection manner of the mounting member 131 and the mounting member 1311 is not limited.
[0126] With reference back to Figures 1 to 7 In some embodiments, the hook members 13211 are at least two.
[0127] The at least two hook members 13211 are oriented differently and are movably hooked to the adjacent two mounting members 1311 in the height direction of the cabinet 110.

[0132] As shown in FIG. 10, in some embodiments, the shelf member 132 includes: Figures 4 to 10
[0133] The support frame 1321, the hook portion 13211 is arranged on the support frame 1321;
[0134] The shelf plate 1322 is arranged on the upper side of the support frame 1321.
[0135] The technical scheme has the advantages or beneficial effects that: the support frame 1321 provides the main structural support of the shelf member 132, ensuring that the shelf plate 1322 can stably carry articles to improve the carrying capacity of the shelf member 132, which enables the shelf member 132 to support heavier articles and be suitable for various storage needs. The hook portion 13211 is arranged on the support frame 1321, so that the entire shelf member 132 can be securely hung on the mounting portion 1311, increasing the overall stability.
[0136] In some embodiments, as the hook portion 13211 is integrated with the support frame 1321, the user can easily hang the shelf assembly 132 on the mounting portion 1311 at different heights. This flexibility allows the user to adjust the height of the shelf 1322 as needed to accommodate items of different sizes.
[0137] In some embodiments, the shelf 1322 is located on the upper side of the support frame 1321, which is usually a flat surface, facilitating cleaning. The user can easily remove the shelf 1322 for cleaning, maintaining the hygiene of the refrigerator.
[0138] In some embodiments, the shelf 1322 can be made of various materials such as metal, plastic or glass to meet different aesthetic and functional requirements.
[0139] It should be noted that by reasonably designing the size and shape of the support frame 1321 and the shelf 1322, the shelf assembly 132 can maximize the use of the space inside the refrigerator, improving storage efficiency.
[0140] In some embodiments, the support frame 1321 extends along a first direction;
[0141] Wherein the hook portion 13211 is located on the side facing the rear side of the box 110, and the first direction is the front side of the box 110 pointing to the rear side of the box 110.
[0142] The above technical solution has the following advantages or beneficial effects: the support frame 1321 extends along the length direction (first direction X) of the box 110, which can provide better stability and support capacity, especially when subjected to forces from different directions, referring to the first direction X in Figure 6 .
[0143] It should be noted that the hook portion 13211 is located on the side facing the rear side of the box 110, which can effectively utilize the rear space of the box 110, avoiding occupying the front or side space, thereby optimizing the overall space utilization. In addition, this design can make the installation and removal of the support frame 1321 more convenient, further facilitating the user to select different heights, and then detach the support frame 1321, hooking the hook portion 13211 on the support frame 1321 to the mounting portion 1311 at different heights.
[0144] Figure 11 Figure 1 is a cross-sectional view of the refrigerator shelf assembly provided by the embodiment of the present application from the first perspective of the box inner liner, Figure 12 Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view of the refrigerator shelf assembly provided by the embodiment of the present application from the second perspective of the box inner liner.
[0145] As shown in Figures 3 to 5 , and Figures 8 to 12 , in some embodiments, the shelf assembly 130 further comprises:
[0146] A fixing bracket 133 is provided on the outer wall of the inner liner 111 and extends along the height direction of the box body 110. The fixing bracket 133 is used to fix multiple mounting parts 131.
[0147] The above technical solution has the following advantages or beneficial effects: the fixed bracket 133 is set on the outer wall of the inner liner 111 and extends along the height direction of the box body 110. This design provides a solid foundation for supporting multiple mounting components 131, thereby enhancing the stability of the entire shelving system.
[0148] By using the fixed bracket 133, multiple mounting components 131 can be installed and adjusted on a unified platform. This design simplifies the installation process and ensures that the height and position of all shelf components 132 remain consistent.
[0149] It should be noted that because the mounting component 131 is fixed to a unified bracket, it is more convenient for users to perform maintenance or replacement. The fixed bracket 133 provides an easily accessible structure, making the replacement and adjustment of the mounting component 131 simpler. The fixed bracket 133 not only provides stability, but also enhances the load-bearing capacity of the entire shelving system through its structural design. This is especially important for applications that require storing heavier items.
[0150] In some embodiments, the mounting member 131 passes through the inner and outer walls of the left side of the inner liner 111, wherein the mounting part 1311 is located inside the refrigerator compartment 1111 to facilitate hooking and installation by the hook part 13211.
[0151] In some embodiments, the mounting bracket 133 is placed between the foam layer and the inner liner 111, concealing it within the internal structure of the equipment. This concealed installation method does not affect the appearance design of the refrigeration equipment, maintaining its aesthetics and tidiness.
[0152] The foam layer is typically used to provide insulation and structural support. Embedding the mounting bracket 133 within the foam layer enhances its stability and load-bearing capacity. This design helps support heavier shelves and stored items. The insulation properties of the foam layer help maintain a stable internal temperature in the refrigeration equipment. Placing the mounting bracket 133 within the foam layer ensures that it does not negatively impact the equipment's insulation performance, thus maintaining efficient energy use.
[0153] like Figures 8 to 12 As shown, in some embodiments, the mounting bracket 133 includes an adhesive element 1331.
[0154] The fixing support 133 further comprises a fixing frame 1332 having a mounting surface attached to the outer wall surface of the box inner container 111 by means of an adhesive 1331.
[0155] The above technical solution has the following advantages or beneficial effects: by using the adhesive 1331, the fixing frame 1332 can be quickly and conveniently installed on the outer wall of the box inner container 111, and the plurality of mounting members 131 are passed through the fixing frame 1332 and the side wall of the box inner container 111 to improve stability.
[0156] The adhesive 1331 generally has a certain elasticity and can absorb vibrations and noise to a certain extent. This feature helps to improve the quiet performance of the refrigeration equipment and enhance the user experience.
[0157] The adhesive 1331 can serve as an isolation layer between the fixing frame 1332 and the box inner container 111, reducing heat conduction and thus helping to maintain the energy efficiency and internal temperature stability of the refrigeration equipment. Due to the concealment of the adhesive 1331, the installation of the fixing frame 1332 does not affect the appearance design of the refrigeration equipment, maintaining the beauty and cleanliness of the equipment.
[0158] In some embodiments, the adhesive 1331 is a back adhesive.
[0159] In some embodiments, the mounting member 131 is a screw.
[0160] The above technical solution has the following advantages or beneficial effects: the screw as the mounting member 131 can provide a very firm fixing effect. By screwing the screw into the structure of the fixing support 133 and the box inner container 111, it can be ensured that the shelf assembly 130 will not easily move or fall off during use.
[0161] The use of screws can enhance the load-bearing capacity of the shelf system, which is suitable for application scenarios that require storage of heavy objects. Screws are usually made of metal and have high durability and corrosion resistance. This material property allows screws to be used in the environment of refrigeration equipment for a long time without failure.
[0162] In addition, if it is necessary to adjust or replace the shelf assembly 130, the screw can be conveniently disassembled and reinstalled. This maintainability allows users to flexibly adjust the shelf configuration according to needs. As a standardized connecting member, the screw has good compatibility and can be used with various types and designs of fixing supports 133 and shelf assemblies 130, adapting to different design requirements.
[0163] In some embodiments, a first connecting hole is formed on the fixing frame 1332, which can be a threaded hole, the mounting member 131 can pass through the first connecting hole, and the first connecting hole can be tightened or loosened to adjust the state of fixing and disassembly.
[0164] In addition, a second connecting hole is formed on the inner container 111, and the second connecting hole can also be a threaded hole. The mounting member 131 can pass through the second connecting hole and can be adjusted by being screwed or unscrewed to adjust the fixed and disassembled state.
[0165] Specifically, the mounting member 131 passes through the first connecting hole and the second connecting hole in sequence and is screwed, wherein the fixing frame 1332 provides mounting strength for the mounting member 131 outside the inner container 111 to support the plurality of mounting members 131.
