[0030] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0031] The following is a reference appendix. Figures 1 to 9 A refrigerator according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the refrigerator of this utility model embodiment includes: a refrigerator liner 1 and a guide seat 2. The refrigerator liner 1 has a fixing plate 11, and the guide seat 2 includes a guide body 21, a first snap-fit ​​part 22 and a second snap-fit ​​part 23. There are multiple first snap-fit ​​parts 22, of which at least two first snap-fit ​​parts 22 are arranged opposite to each other, and both the first snap-fit ​​parts 22 and the second snap-fit ​​parts 23 are snapped into the fixing plate 11.

[0033] According to the refrigerator of the embodiment of the utility model, since the guide seat 2 is clamped on the fixed plate 11 through the first clamping part 22 and the second clamping part 23, and at least two first clamping parts 22 are oppositely arranged, the firmness of the guide seat 2 after installation can be improved, the problem of cracking or white mark on the appearance of the guide seat 2 and the box body 1 when the guide seat 2 and the box body 1 are fastened by screws is avoided, the good product rate of the assembled guide seat 2 is improved, and the assembly process is simple and the assembly efficiency is high.

[0034] As shown in Figures 1 to 3 , the guide body 21 is arranged on the lower side of the fixed plate 11, the first clamping part 22 is at least two and is arranged on the inner side of the guide body 21, and the second clamping part 23 is arranged on the outer side of the guide body 21.

[0035] It can be understood that the box body 1 has a refrigeration compartment. The inner side of the guide body 21 (the guide seat 2), that is, the side of the guide body 21 (the guide seat 2) adjacent to the refrigeration compartment. The outer side of the guide body 21 (the guide seat 2), that is, the side of the guide body 21 (the guide seat 2) away from the refrigeration compartment. The inner and outer directions of the guide body 21 (the guide seat 2) are consistent with the front and rear directions of the refrigerator, the left and right directions of the guide body 21 (the guide seat 2) are consistent with the left and right directions of the refrigerator, and the up and down directions of the guide body 21 (the guide seat 2) are consistent with the up and down directions of the refrigerator.

[0036] As shown in Figure 3 , the first clamping part 22 and the second clamping part 23 are clamped with the fixed plate 11, so that the inner and outer sides of the guide seat 2 are matched with the fixed plate 11 by clamping. Thus, the guide seat 2 of the refrigerator of the embodiment of the utility model does not need to be locked by screws, and the stability of the clamping of the box body 1 and the guide seat 2 can be ensured.

[0037] Among them, the first clamping part 22 can be two or more. In the example of the utility model, the first clamping part 22 is two.

[0038] Optionally, the two first clamping parts 22 are oppositely arranged and spaced apart in the left and right directions of the refrigerator, so that the clamping forces on the left and right sides of the guide seat 2 are substantially equal, which is beneficial to improve the uniformity of the installation gap between the guide seat 2 and the fixed plate 11.

[0039] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the fixing plate 11 is provided with two first profiling grooves 13, and the two first profiling grooves 13 correspond to the two first clamping portions 22 one by one, the first clamping portion 22 can slide into the first profiling groove 13 along the front-rear direction of the refrigerator (i.e. the front-rear direction of the refrigerator), and the first clamping portion 22 is clamped with the first profiling groove 13. It can be understood that the accommodating space of the first profiling groove 13 can be designed according to the outer shape structure of the first clamping portion 22, and the first profiling groove 13 can limit the first clamping portion 22 in the left-right direction of the refrigerator. In other words, the first clamping portion 22 can only slide relative to the first profiling groove 13 in the front-rear direction of the refrigerator, so that the position of the guide seat 2 can be constrained, and the stability of the installation of the guide seat 2 is improved.

[0040] Specifically, as shown in the drawings, Figures 6 to 8 The first clamping portion 22 comprises a connecting segment 221 and a clamping hook segment 222, the two ends of the connecting segment 221 are connected with the guide body 21 and the clamping hook segment 222 respectively, the connecting segment 221 extends into the first profiling groove 13, and the clamping hook segment 222 extends in the left-right direction of the refrigerator and is clamped with the first profiling groove 13. It can be understood that the connecting segment 221 extends in the up-down direction, and the connecting structure of the clamping hook segment 222 and the connecting segment 221 is generally inverted L-shaped. Therefore, after the guide seat 2 is clamped with the fixing plate 11, the guide seat 2 will not come out of the fixing plate 11 downward under the constraint of the clamping hook portion, so as to improve the stability of the installation of the guide seat 2.

[0041] In the example of the utility model, the two first clamping portions 22 are arranged symmetrically in the left-right direction, so that the fixing effect of the guide seat 2 can be further improved, the guide seat 2 is not easy to shake, and the reliability is higher.

[0042] Optionally, as shown in the drawings, Figure 6 And Figure 8 The first clamping portion 22 further comprises a first supporting rib 223, the first supporting rib 223 is connected with the connecting segment 221 and the guide body 21, and the first supporting rib 223 is arranged on one side of the connecting segment 221 in the left-right direction of the refrigerator. Therefore, the structural strength of the first clamping portion 22 can be improved, and the risk of fracture of the first clamping portion 22 is reduced.

[0043] In the example of the utility model, the first supporting rib 223 extends generally in the up-down direction, and the first supporting rib 223 is arranged on the side of the connecting segment 221 away from the clamping hook segment 222, so as to avoid interference of the clamping of the first supporting rib 223 on the clamping hook segment 222.

[0044] For example, as shown in the drawings, Figure 8 The first supporting rib 223 is at least two, and the two first supporting ribs 223 are arranged at intervals in the front-rear direction of the refrigerator (i.e. the front-rear direction of the refrigerator). Therefore, the structural strength of the first clamping portion 22 can be further improved, and the risk of fracture of the first clamping portion 22 is reduced.

[0045] Optionally, as shown in Figure 8 The lower end of the clamping hook section 222 has a guide surface 2221 that gradually extends upwardly in a direction away from the second clamping portion 23. It can be understood that the guide surface 2221 can provide a guiding effect when the first clamping portion 22 is clamped into the first profiling groove 13, thereby improving the smoothness when the guide seat 2 is slid into the first profiling groove 13 and improving the assembly efficiency. For example, the guide surface 2221 can be a flat surface or an arc surface.

[0046] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8 The second clamping portion 23 is two, and the two second clamping portions 23 are arranged on the guide body 21 in the left-right direction of the refrigerator. The fixed plate 11 is provided with two second profiling grooves 14, and the two second clamping portions 23 are clamped in one-to-one correspondence with the two second profiling grooves 14, thereby further improving the firmness of the clamping of the guide seat 2 and the fixed plate 11 and reducing the probability of loosening of the guide seat 2 and the fixed plate 11.

[0047] In the example of the utility model, the first clamping portion 22 and the second clamping portion 23 are both two, and the first clamping portion 22 and the second clamping portion 23 are arranged in the left-right direction, that is, the guide seat 2 and the fixed plate 11 have four clamping point positions, and the four clamping point positions are arranged in a generally rectangular shape.

[0048] Optionally, as shown in Figure 8 The second clamping portion 23 includes a clamping body 231 and a second supporting rib 232, the clamping body 231 is connected with the guide body 21, the second supporting rib 232 is connected with the clamping body 231 and the guide body 21, and the second supporting rib 232 extends in the up-down direction of the guide body 21. Thereby the structural strength of the second clamping portion 23 can be improved, and the risk of fracture of the second clamping portion 23 can be reduced.

[0049] For example, the second supporting rib 232 extends in the up-down direction. Each second clamping portion 23 can correspond to one or two second supporting ribs 232.

[0050] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 7 The fixed plate 11 is provided with a receiving groove 12, and the guide body 21 has a guide groove 211 recessed towards the receiving groove 12, and the guide groove 211 is used for guiding the movement of the turnover beam 3. The side of the guide groove 211 away from the fixed plate 11 is open, that is, the lower side of the guide groove 211 is provided with an opening for cooperation with the turnover beam 3.

[0051] It should be noted that, as Figure 9As shown, the refrigerator further comprises a refrigerator body 41 and at least two refrigerator doors 42. The box body 1 is arranged in the refrigerator body 41, the two refrigerator doors 42 are pivotally arranged on the refrigerator body 41, and the opening sides of the two refrigerator doors 42 are oppositely arranged, and the turnover beam 3 is arranged on one of the two refrigerator doors 42, and the guide block on the turnover beam 3 can be slidably matched with the guide groove 211.

[0052] It can be understood that in the example of the utility model, at least part of the guide groove 211 can be embedded into the accommodating groove 12. Compared with the scheme that the accommodating structure of the guide seat 2 is not arranged on the fixed plate 11, the gap generated by the assembly between the fixed plate 11 and the guide seat 2 can be reduced or eliminated, and the problem of cold leakage of the gap between the fixed plate 11 and the guide seat 2 can be reduced.

[0053] In addition, since the gap between the fixed plate 11 and the guide seat 2 of the refrigerator of the embodiment of the utility model is small, it is not necessary to arrange the heat preservation cotton between the fixed plate 11 and the guide seat 2, so that the assembly process of the fixed plate 11 and the guide seat 2 can be simplified, and the problem that the heat preservation cotton is easily damaged during assembly is avoided.

[0054] As shown in the figure, Figure 5 It can be understood that in order to improve the sealing effect between the fixed plate 11 and the guide seat 2, the foaming agent can be filled between the fixed plate 11 and the guide seat 2, and when the foaming agent is solidified, a foaming sealing layer can be formed between the fixed plate 11 and the guide seat 2, thereby reducing the problem of cold leakage of the assembly structure of the fixed plate 11 and the guide seat 2.
