[0002] With the improvement of living standards, people have higher requirements for the function and use experience of the refrigerator. In the design of the refrigerator, the shelf device on the refrigerator door is mainly used to store articles to expand the use space inside the refrigerator.

[0003] The refrigerator shelf device in the prior art only provides a shelf for placing articles, and the size of the shelf is fixed, which cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the height of the articles, resulting in a narrow application range and inconvenience in taking and placing articles. CONTENT OF THE INVENTION

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a refrigerator shelf device, a refrigerator door and a refrigerator which are convenient for taking articles and can be applied to articles of different heights.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present application provides the following technical solutions:

[0006] A refrigerator shelf device is used to be installed on a door body of a refrigerator door, and comprises a shelf and a blocking rod. The shelf comprises a first baffle and a second baffle which are oppositely arranged along a first direction, and a third baffle and a fourth baffle which are oppositely arranged along a second direction. A containing groove is formed between the first baffle, the second baffle, the third baffle and the fourth baffle, and the first direction and the second direction are arranged at an angle.

[0007] The third baffle is used to be installed on the refrigerator door. Along the height direction of the shelf, the height of the fourth baffle is lower than the height of the third baffle, and a first gap which is in communication with the containing groove is formed at the position of the fourth baffle.

[0008] The blocking rod extends along the first direction of the shelf and is arranged at the first gap, and one end of the blocking rod is rotationally connected to the first baffle, and the other end is rotationally connected to the second baffle.

[0009] The blocking rod is rotated relative to the shelf to make the blocking rod move at the first gap and change the position of the blocking rod in the height direction of the shelf, and the height direction of the shelf is perpendicular to the plane formed by the first direction and the second direction.

[0010] It can be understood that the first gap is formed on the shelf, which increases the convenience of taking the articles; meanwhile, the blocking rod is arranged at the first gap and can rotate relative to the shelf to change the position of the blocking rod in the height direction of the shelf, so that the position of the blocking rod is adjusted according to the height of the articles placed in the shelf. In this way, the versatility and adaptability of the shelf are improved, the diversified needs of users in storing different articles are met, and the convenience and efficiency of the refrigerator are improved.

[0011] In one of the embodiments, the first blocking plate and the second blocking plate are provided with a second gap near one side of the fourth blocking plate, and the second gap, the first gap and the accommodation slot are arranged in communication with each other.

[0012] It can be understood that the second gap is arranged, so that the connection between the first blocking plate and the fourth blocking plate and the connection between the second blocking plate and the fourth blocking plate are not blocked, thereby reducing the shielding of the accommodation slot at both ends of the first direction of the shelf, and the taking and placing of the articles are more smooth.

[0013] In one of the embodiments, the blocking rod comprises a main rod and two connecting rods, the main rod extends along the first direction of the shelf and is arranged at the first gap; the two connecting rods are arranged at both ends of the main rod and are arranged at the second gap, and one of the connecting rods is rotationally connected with the first blocking plate, and the other connecting rod is rotationally connected with the second blocking plate.

[0014] It can be understood that the main rod extends along the first direction of the shelf, which can effectively cover the first gap area and provide stable blocking effect. The connecting rods at both ends are rotationally connected with the first blocking plate and the second blocking plate respectively, which ensures the flexibility and stability of the rotation of the blocking rod. This structure makes the force uniform during the rotation of the blocking rod, and the blocking rod is not easy to jam or tilt.

When the blocking rod is rotated, the rotation limiting column slides out of the rotation limiting hole, and the blocking rod can be rotated. When the blocking rod is rotated, the rotation limiting column is limited in the rotation limiting hole, so that the blocking rod is fixed. By limiting the rotation limiting column in different rotation limiting holes, the rotation angle of the blocking rod can be adjusted, thereby providing reliable protection for articles of different heights.

[0019] In one of the embodiments, the connecting hole is configured as a blind hole, and the height direction of the shelf is perpendicular to the plane formed by the first direction and the second direction.

[0020] It can be understood that by configuring the connecting hole as a blind hole, dust, debris and the like are prevented from entering the hole. In addition, the blind hole can also provide a certain positioning function, so that the connecting rod is more accurate and fast during installation, thereby improving the assembly efficiency and quality.

[0021] In one of the embodiments, the blocking rod is integrally bent and formed by a bar material.

[0022] It can be understood that the blocking rod is integrally bent and formed by a bar material, thereby simplifying the manufacturing process of the blocking rod and reducing the production cost. The integrally formed structure makes the blocking rod have higher strength and stability, and is not prone to breaking or deforming.

[0023] In one of the embodiments, the first blocking plate and the second blocking plate are provided with mounting holes near the fourth blocking plate.

[0024] In one of the embodiments, the first blocking plate and the second blocking plate are provided with rotation limiting protrusions on the side surface outside the accommodating groove, and the rotation limiting protrusions are arranged near the mounting holes and used for rotation limiting cooperation with the refrigerator door.

[0025] The application also provides the following technical solutions:

[0045] In related art, the wall height of the refrigerator shelf device 100 is the same. This design makes it more difficult to put in the goods, especially for the refrigerator shelf device 100 installed at a higher position, resulting in lower utilization of the refrigerator shelf device 100 installed at a higher position. The refrigerator shelf device 100 provided by the present application increases the convenience of taking goods by forming a first gap 115 on the shelf 10; at the same time, the blocking rod 20 is arranged at the first gap 115 and the blocking rod 20 can rotate relative to the shelf 10 to change the position of the blocking rod 20 in the height direction z of the shelf 10, so that the position of the blocking rod 20 can be adjusted according to the height of the goods placed in the shelf 10. In this way, the versatility and adaptability of the shelf 10 are improved, the diversified needs of users when storing different goods are met, and the convenience and efficiency of using the refrigerator are improved.

[0046] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 , the side of the first baffle 111 close to the fourth baffle 114 and the side of the second baffle 112 close to the fourth baffle 114 are respectively provided with a second gap 116, and the second gap 116, the first gap 115 and the containing groove 11 are arranged in communication with each other. In this way, the connection between the first baffle 111 and the fourth baffle 114 and the connection between the second baffle 112 and the fourth baffle 114 are not blocked, so that the shielding of the containing groove 11 at both ends of the first direction x of the shelf 10 can be reduced, and the taking and placing of goods is more smooth.

[0047] As shown in Figure 5 , the first baffle 111 and the second baffle 112 are provided with mounting holes 118 near the fourth baffle 114, and the shelf 10 is mounted on the fixing rod of the refrigerator door through the mounting holes 118.

By limiting the rotation stopping column 221 in different rotation stopping holes 1171, the rotation angle of the blocking rod 20 can be adjusted, thereby providing reliable protection for articles of different heights. Therefore, the arrangement of a plurality of rotation stopping columns 221 is equivalent to providing a plurality of different adjustment positions for the position adjustment of the blocking rod 20.

[0051] Here, the number of rotation stopping columns 221 can be six, eight, ten or twelve, etc. Not limited to this, the number of rotation stopping columns 221 can be selected according to actual conditions.

[0052] Further, the connecting hole 117 is configured as a blind hole, and the rotation-stopping hole 1171 is arranged at a bottom position of the connecting hole 117 along the first direction x. Here, the blind hole can avoid sundries and the like from entering the accommodating groove 11; in addition, the blind hole can also provide a certain positioning function, so that the connecting rod 22 is more accurate and fast during installation, and the assembly efficiency and quality are improved.

[0053] In the embodiment, the blocking rod 20 is integrally bent and formed by a bar material, that is, the blocking rod 20 is configured as an integral structure. In this way, the manufacturing process of the blocking rod 20 is simplified, and the production cost is reduced. At the same time, the integrally formed structure makes the blocking rod 20 have higher strength and stability, and is not prone to breakage or deformation.

[0054] The application also provides a refrigerator door, which comprises a door main body (not shown in the figure) and the refrigerator shelf device 100 according to any one of the above embodiments. The refrigerator shelf device 100 is installed on the door main body.

[0055] The application also provides a refrigerator, which comprises the refrigerator door according to any one of the above embodiments.
