Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] Embodiments of the present application relate to the technical field of refrigeration equipment, and in particular to a refrigerator. BACKGROUND

[0002] Air-cooled refrigerators are widely used because they do not need to be defrosted. However, as the storage time of fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator increases, the moisture content of the fruits and vegetables decreases, and the fruits and vegetables become wilted and unrefreshing. Therefore, the moisture retention function of the refrigerator is very important.

[0003] In the refrigerator, a humidifying module can be installed to increase the humidity in the refrigerator. In related technologies, the humidifying module is arranged on the door body of the refrigerator. When the door body is opened or closed, the liquid in the humidifying module shakes, which affects the stability of the humidifying module. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0004] Embodiments of the present application provide a refrigerator to improve the stability of the humidifying module on the door body.

[0005] In a first aspect, embodiments of the present application provide a refrigerator, which includes:

[0006] a cabinet configured to form a refrigeration compartment;

[0007] a door body rotatably connected to the cabinet to open or close the refrigeration compartment; the door body is provided with a door shelf on the side facing the refrigeration compartment;

[0008] a humidifying module configured to humidify the refrigeration compartment; the humidifying module is located on the side of the door body facing the refrigeration compartment, and the humidifying module and the door shelf are staggered along the height direction of the door body; the humidifying module is configured to:

[0009] a liquid storage cavity for storing humidifying liquid; the liquid storage cavity is provided with:

[0010] at least one rib plate, the rib plate separates the liquid storage cavity into at least two sub-cavities; adjacent two sub-cavities are communicated.

[0011] The refrigerator of the embodiment of the present application can improve the humidity of the refrigeration compartment by setting the humidifying module, thereby improving the preservation quality of the refrigeration compartment. The humidifying module is installed on the door body and staggered with the door shelf on the door body in the height direction of the door body, which is convenient for adding water and does not occupy the storage space of the refrigeration compartment. The humidifying module of the embodiment of the present application stores the liquid for humidification through the liquid storage cavity. The liquid storage cavity is divided into at least two sub-cavities by the rib plate arranged in the liquid storage cavity. The space of the sub-cavity is small, which can reduce the range of free flow of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity, and the rib plate can block the flow of the liquid. In this way, when the door body of the refrigerator is moved, the shaking range of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity can be reduced, thereby improving the stability of the installation of the humidifying module.

[0012] In some embodiments of the present application, the rib plate extends in a first direction; and an included angle is formed between the first direction and the width direction of the door body.

[0013] In some embodiments of the present application, the rib plate is provided in a strip shape, which can not only increase the area for blocking the flow of the liquid, but also increase the separation area between the two adjacent sub-cavities, thereby increasing the flow resistance of the liquid and reducing the shaking degree of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity during the opening and closing of the door.

[0014] In some embodiments of the present application, a plurality of rib plates are provided, and the plurality of rib plates are arranged in a second direction; and an included angle is formed between the second direction and the first direction.

[0015] In some embodiments of the present application, a plurality of rib plates are provided, which is conducive to reducing the space between the single sub-cavities, increasing the flow resistance of the liquid, and reducing the shaking degree of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity during the opening and closing of the door.

[0016] In some embodiments of the present application, at least one rib plate and the bottom wall of the liquid storage cavity have a spacing in the height direction of the door body.

[0017] In some embodiments of the present application, the rib plate and the bottom wall of the liquid storage cavity have a spacing, so that the two adjacent sub-cavities are communicated, without the need to additionally set a communication structure between the two adjacent sub-cavities, which is conducive to simplifying the structure in the liquid storage cavity.

[0018] In some embodiments of the present application, at least one rib plate and the top wall of the liquid storage cavity have a spacing in the height direction of the door body.

[0019] In some embodiments of the present application, the rib plate and the top wall of the liquid storage cavity have a spacing, so that the top of the two adjacent sub-cavities is communicated, thereby making the gas in the top of the two adjacent sub-cavities communicated, which is conducive to balancing the air pressure between the two adjacent sub-cavities, so that the liquid levels of the two adjacent sub-cavities are consistent.

[0020] In some embodiments of the present application, a water inlet is arranged on the top of the humidifying module, and the water inlet is communicated with the liquid storage cavity.

[0021] The water inlet structure is configured to form a water inlet channel, and the water inlet end of the water inlet channel is opposite to the water inlet, and the water outlet end of the water inlet channel is communicated with the liquid storage cavity.

[0022] In the embodiments of the present application, the water inlet structure is arranged in the liquid storage cavity, and the water inlet structure is configured to form a water inlet channel, so that water can be poured into the liquid storage cavity, and the water inlet channel is arranged between the liquid storage cavity and the water inlet, so that the liquid overflow resistance is increased, and the possibility of liquid overflow in the liquid storage cavity when the door is opened and closed is reduced. In addition, the water inlet structure can also reduce the liquid sloshing.

[0023] In some embodiments of the present application, the water inlet structure comprises:

[0024] A rib is connected with the side wall of the water inlet channel and located in the water inlet channel, one end of the rib away from the side wall of the water inlet channel is inclined away from the water inlet, at least part of the projection of the rib on a first plane is located in the water inlet, and the first plane is perpendicular to the depth direction of the water inlet.

[0025] In some embodiments of the present application, the water inlet structure is arranged with a rib on the side wall of the water inlet channel, so that at least part of the rib is opposite to the water inlet, the water overflow resistance is increased, and the liquid in the liquid storage cavity can be prevented from overflowing. Since one end of the rib away from the side wall of the water inlet channel is inclined downward, the resistance to water pouring is small, and the water pouring is not affected.

[0026] In some embodiments of the present application, the liquid storage cavity comprises two first cavity walls opposite and spaced apart along the thickness direction of the door body.

[0027] The water inlet structure further comprises two channel side plates, the two channel side plates are arranged spaced apart along the width direction of the door body, and the two channel side plates and the two first cavity walls jointly enclose the water inlet channel.

[0028] The rib is connected with the channel side plate.

[0029] In the embodiments of the present application, two channel side plates are arranged in the liquid storage cavity, and the two channel side plates and the two cavity walls along the thickness direction of the door body jointly enclose the water inlet channel, so that the structure in the liquid storage cavity is simplified. In addition, the two channel side plates can also reduce the liquid sloshing.

[0030] In some embodiments of the present application, all the ribs are arranged on one side of the two channel side plates facing each other, and the ribs on the two channel side plates are spaced along the width direction of the door body.

[0031] In the embodiments of the present application, the ribs arranged on the two channel side plates further increase the resistance of liquid overflowing through the water injection port, and reduce the possibility of water overflowing from the water injection port. Moreover, the ribs on the two channel side plates are spaced, which facilitates reducing the water injection resistance and ensuring the smoothness and rate of water injection.

[0032] In some embodiments of the present application, a plurality of ribs are arranged, and the plurality of ribs are arranged spaced along the extension direction of the water inlet channel.

[0033] In the embodiments of the present application, a plurality of ribs are arranged, which improves the resistance of liquid in the liquid storage cavity overflowing outward through the water injection port, thereby improving the problem of liquid overflowing of the humidifying module when the door is opened or closed.

[0034] In some embodiments of the present application, one side of the door body facing the refrigeration compartment is configured to form two door tank ribs arranged spaced along the width direction of the door body, and the door shelf is mounted between the two door tank ribs.

[0035] The humidifying module extends to the two door tank ribs at both ends along the width direction of the door body.

[0036] The size of the humidifying module along the height direction of the door body is greater than the size of the humidifying module along the thickness direction of the door body.

[0037] In the embodiments of the present application, the humidifying module extends to the door tank ribs at both ends along the width direction of the door body, so that the humidifying module has a larger liquid storage space, which can reduce the frequency of adding water and improve the convenience of use. Moreover, the size of the humidifying module along the height direction of the door body is greater, which facilitates providing a larger liquid storage space. The size of the humidifying module along the thickness direction of the door body is smaller, which reduces the volume of the humidifying module protruding from the door body, reduces the storage space of the humidifying module occupying the door shelf, and even does not occupy the storage space of the door shelf.

[0038] In some embodiments of the present application, the liquid storage cavity includes two first cavity walls opposite and spaced along the thickness direction of the door body.

[0039] One of the two first cavity walls is connected to one side of the rib plate along the two sides of the door body along the thickness direction, and the other of the two first cavity walls abuts the other side of the rib plate along the two sides of the door body along the thickness direction.

[0040] In the embodiments of the present application, the rib plate is fixed to one of the first cavity walls, so that the rib plate is fixed in the liquid storage cavity. The rib plate abuts against the other first cavity wall, so as to divide the liquid storage cavity into at least two sub-cavities. The rib plate only needs to be fixed to one of the first cavity walls, and does not need to be connected to the other first cavity wall, so that the structure in the liquid storage cavity can be simplified.

[0096] In order to make the purposes, implementations and advantages of the present application clearer, the following will combine the drawings in the exemplary embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the exemplary implementations of the present application. Obviously, the described exemplary embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, but not all of the embodiments.

[0097] It should be noted that the brief description of the terms in the present application is only for the convenience of understanding the embodiments described next, and is not intended to limit the embodiments of the present application. Unless otherwise specified, these terms should be understood according to their ordinary and general meanings.

[0098] In addition, the terms "include" and "have" and any variations thereof are intended to cover but not exclusively include, for example, a product or device that includes a series of components does not have to be limited to those components clearly listed, but can include other components that are not clearly listed or inherent to these products or devices.

[0099] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer" and the like is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and therefore cannot be understood as indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present application.

[0100] The terms "first", "second" are only for descriptive purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined with "first", "second" can explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present application, unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "a plurality of" is two or more.

[0101] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "mounting", "connection", "connection" should be understood broadly, for example, it can be fixedly connected, or it can be detachably connected, or integrally connected; it can be mechanically connected, or it can be electrically connected; it can be directly connected, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the communication inside two elements. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0102] In the refrigerator, the humidifying module is mounted, and the storage compartment in the refrigerator is humidified, which can improve the humidity of the storage compartment and improve the storage quality. In the related art, the humidifying module is arranged on the door body of the refrigerator, and does not occupy the storage space of the storage compartment, and is widely used.

[0103] Considering the installation space and other problems, the humidifying module arranged on the door body of the refrigerator usually has a small water storage space, and needs to be frequently watered, which is complicated and inconvenient to use.

[0104] To this end, the present application research and development personnel designed a flat humidification module, parallel to the door body, and fixed to the door body. The humidification module has a larger liquid storage cavity, reducing the frequency of adding water.

[0105] However, with the opening and closing of the door body, the liquid in the humidification module shakes, affecting the stability of the humidification module, and even causing the humidification module to move relative to the door body.

[0106] The present application research and development personnel found that due to the larger space of the liquid storage cavity in the humidification module, during the opening and closing of the door body, the door body drives the humidification module to move, and the liquid in the humidification module shakes due to inertia. Moreover, the fluidity of the liquid itself also causes fluctuations in the container.

[0107] Therefore, the present application research and development personnel consider setting a rib plate in the liquid storage cavity to divide the larger liquid storage cavity into multiple smaller sub-cavities, and the multiple sub-cavities are connected, without affecting the circulation of the liquid. Due to the smaller space of the sub-cavity, the free flow range of the liquid can be reduced, the shaking amplitude can be reduced, and the stability of the humidification module can be improved.

[0108] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0109] First of all, it needs to be pointed out that in the embodiments of the present application, when the door body of the refrigerator is in a closed state, the width direction of the door body is consistent with the width direction of the refrigerator, the thickness direction of the door body is consistent with the depth direction of the refrigerator, and the height direction of the door body is consistent with the height direction of the refrigerator. In Figure 1 , the width direction of the refrigerator corresponds to the X-axis direction in the figure, the depth direction of the refrigerator corresponds to the Y-axis direction in the figure, and the height direction of the refrigerator corresponds to the Z-axis direction in the figure.

[0110] In combination Figure 1 , some embodiments of the present application provide a refrigerator, which includes a cabinet 100, and the cabinet 100 can be configured to form a storage compartment for storing articles.

[0111] The storage compartment can be provided with multiple storage compartments to expand the storage space. According to the different storage temperatures of the storage compartments, the storage compartments can include at least one refrigeration compartment 101 and at least one freezing compartment 102. The internal temperature of the refrigeration compartment 101 can be maintained at about 0℃ to 5℃ to store articles in a refrigeration mode; and the internal temperature of the freezing compartment 102 can be maintained at about -30℃ to 0℃ to store articles in a freezing mode.

[0112] In some possible implementations, the at least one storage compartment can also be configured as a vacuum chamber or a temperature-variable chamber, and the like, and the embodiments of the present application do not repeat the details.

[0113] Exemplarily, two storage compartments can be provided, and the two storage compartments can be stacked in a vertical direction or arranged side by side in a horizontal direction. One of the two storage compartments can be configured as a refrigeration compartment 101, and the other one can be configured as a freezing compartment 102.

[0114] In some embodiments, the cabinet 100 can include a cabinet inner container and a cabinet shell. The cabinet inner container can be configured with a storage compartment. The cabinet shell can be connected to the outside of the cabinet inner container to form the appearance of the refrigerator.

[0115] The cabinet 100 can further include a cabinet thermal insulation layer, which can be arranged between the cabinet inner container and the cabinet shell. The cabinet thermal insulation layer can thermally insulate the storage compartment to minimize heat exchange between the storage compartment and the outside of the refrigerator, thereby helping to ensure the refrigeration effect of the refrigerator.

[0116] The refrigerator according to the embodiments of the present application can further include a refrigeration system for providing cold energy to the storage compartment. Exemplarily, the refrigeration system can be arranged in the cabinet 100. The refrigeration system can include a compressor, a condenser, a throttling device and an evaporator connected in a circulation manner.

[0117] When the refrigeration system is running, the compressor compresses the refrigerant vapor to generate high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant vapor, and delivers the refrigerant vapor to the condenser. The condenser liquefies the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant vapor to generate high-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant liquid, and delivers the refrigerant liquid to the throttling device. The throttling device depressurizes the refrigerant liquid to convert the high-pressure and low-temperature refrigerant liquid into low-pressure and low-temperature refrigerant liquid, and delivers the refrigerant liquid to the evaporator. The evaporator receives the low-pressure and low-temperature refrigerant liquid, and causes the refrigerant liquid to boil under isobaric conditions to absorb heat and vaporize to form refrigerant vapor, so as to reduce the temperature in the storage compartment.

[0118] Continuing to refer to Figure 1 The refrigerator according to the embodiments of the present application can further include a door body 200 rotatably connected to the cabinet 100 to open or close the storage compartment.

[0119] Each storage compartment can correspond to one door body 200, or each storage compartment can correspond to two door bodies 200, and the two door bodies 200 can rotate in opposite directions to open or close the storage compartment.

[0120] Of course, in some possible implementations, a drawer is arranged in the storage compartment, and an outer end of the drawer is configured to form a door body.

[0121] In some embodiments, as Figure 1As shown, the door body 200 may include an inner door liner 220. When the door body 200 is closed to the refrigerator compartment 101, the inner door liner 220 faces the refrigerator compartment 101.

[0122] The door 200 may include a door outer shell 240; the door outer shell 240 may be connected to the outside of the door inner liner 220 to form the appearance of the door 200. The door outer shell 240 may be rotatably connected to the cabinet 100 to allow the door 200 to open or close the refrigerator compartment 101.

[0123] The door body 200 may also include a door insulation component, which can be disposed within the gap between the inner door liner 220 and the outer door shell 240. The door insulation component insulates the storage compartment to minimize heat exchange between the storage compartment and the outside of the refrigerator, thus ensuring the refrigerator's cooling effect. The door insulation component can be a foam layer.

[0124] In some embodiments, a door shelf 210 is provided on the side of the door 200 facing the refrigerator compartment 101 to increase the storage space of the refrigerator. The door shelf 210 has an upward-opening storage cavity 211 for storing items.

[0125] like Figure 1 As shown, the door shelf 210 includes a first side plate 212 and a second side plate 213, which are arranged at intervals along the thickness direction of the door body 200. The first side plate 212 is closer to the door body 200, and the second side plate 213 is closer to the cold storage compartment 101.

[0126] The door shelf 210 may also include two end side plates 214, which are spaced apart along the width direction of the door body 200. The two end side plates 214 are respectively connected to the two ends of the first side plate 212 and the second side plate 213.

[0127] The door shelf 210 may also include a bottom side plate, which is fixed to the bottom end of the first side plate 212, the second side plate 213, and the two end side plates 214. The bottom side plate, the first side plate 212, the second side plate 213, and the two end side plates 214 together form a storage cavity 211.

[0128] In some implementations, the inner door liner 220 facing the cold storage compartment 101 is constructed with two door liner ribs 221, the two door liner ribs 221 being arranged along the height direction of the door body 200 (corresponding to...). Figure 1 The two door ribs 221 extend along the width direction of the door body 200 and are opposite to each other and spaced apart.

[0129] The door shelf 210 is mounted on the two door ribs 221. Exemplarily, one side of the two door ribs 221 relative to each other is configured to form a hanging lug, and the two end side plates 214 of the door shelf 210 are configured to form a hanging groove, the hanging groove is clamped with the hanging lug to fix the door shelf 210 on the door inner liner 220.

[0130] With reference back to Figure 1 In some possible implementations, a plurality of door shelves 210 are provided, and the plurality of door shelves 210 are arranged at intervals along the height direction of the door body 200.

[0131] Exemplarily, three door shelves 210 are provided, and the three door shelves 210 are arranged at intervals along the height direction of the door body 200.

[0132] The interval between adjacent two door shelves 210 can be different to form different storage heights, facilitating the storage of articles of different heights.

[0133] In some implementations, the number of hanging lugs provided on the door rib 221 is greater than the number of door shelves 210, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the position of the door shelf 210 in the height direction of the door inner liner 220 according to actual needs, and improve the flexibility of storing articles.

[0134] With reference back to Figure 1 In some embodiments, at least one drawer 110 is provided in the refrigeration compartment 101, and the drawer 110 is located at the bottom of the refrigeration compartment 101. Wherein, the drawer 110 is configured to be pulled along the depth direction of the refrigeration compartment 101, so as to facilitate the taking and placing of articles in the drawer 110.

[0135] Wherein, the drawer 110 can be provided with one, and the drawer 110 is located at the bottom inside the refrigeration compartment 101, facilitating the user to take and place articles towards the inside of the drawer 110.

[0136] The drawer 110 can be provided with multiple, for example, two drawers 110 can be arranged side by side along the width direction of the refrigerator. For another example, as Figure 1 shown in the drawings, two drawers 110 can be arranged in layers along the height direction of the refrigerator.

[0137] In some embodiments, along the height direction of the refrigerator, at least one drawer 110 is located below all the door shelves 210 on the door body 200. It can be understood that the at least one drawer 110 is located below the lowermost door shelf 210 on the door body 200.

[0138] When a plurality of drawers 110 are arranged in layers along the height direction of the refrigerator, the bottommost drawer 110 can be located below all the door shelves 210 on the door body 200, as Figure 1 shown in the drawings.

[0139] Thus, there is a certain gap between the bottom door shelf 210 on the door body 200 and the door seal at the bottom of the door body 200, so as to provide space for the drawer 110 to be pulled out.

[0140] Typically, the door shelf 210 has a certain thickness along the thickness direction of the door body 200. In some refrigerator products, such as built-in refrigerators, the opening and closing angle of the door body 200 is affected. For example, if the maximum opening and closing angle of the door body 200 is 90°, and the drawer 110 has a large pull-out stroke, the door shelf 210 is prone to colliding with the drawer 110, affecting the pull-out of the drawer 110.

[0141] Therefore, such as Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, all the door shelves 210 of the door body 200 are located above the bottom drawer 110 in the refrigerator compartment 101, providing clearance for the drawer 110 to be pulled out.

[0142] In related technologies, this space is not utilized, resulting in a waste of space inside the refrigerator. Therefore, the researchers of this application have arranged functional modules within this space; these functional modules can be humidification modules 300.

[0143] In some embodiments of this application, the refrigerator may further include a humidification module 300, which is configured to humidify the refrigerator compartment 101 to increase the humidity inside the refrigerator compartment 101, thereby improving the storage quality of items inside the refrigerator compartment 101, especially for some fresh items.

[0144] like Figure 1 As shown, the humidification module 300 is installed on the side of the door 200 facing the refrigerator compartment 101, and is located below all the door shelves 210 on the door 200. That is, the humidification module 300 is located below the lowest door shelf 210.

[0145] In some embodiments of this application, a humidification module 300 is configured in the refrigerator to humidify the refrigerator compartment 101, thereby increasing the humidity within the refrigerator compartment 101 and improving the preservation quality of the refrigerator. The humidification module 300 is installed on the door 200 and does not occupy the storage space of the refrigerator compartment 101. The humidification module 300 is located below all door shelves 210 on the door 200, utilizing the space at the bottom of the lowest door shelf 210, thus not occupying the storage space of the door shelf 210.

[0146] When the door 200 is closed, the humidification module 300 is opposite to at least one of the drawers 110 along the depth direction of the refrigerator. The humidification module 300 is configured so as not to interfere with the drawer 110 when the door 200 is open and the drawer 110 is pulled out, that is, the setting of the humidification module 300 does not affect the pulling out of the drawer 110.

[0147] For example, the size of the humidifying module 300 along the thickness direction of the door body 200 can be limited, so that the humidifying module 300 does not interfere with the drawer 110 when the door body 200 is opened and the drawer 110 is pulled out.

[0148] For another example, a recessed mounting portion can be formed on the door liner 220, so that the humidifying module 300 is embedded and mounted in the door body 200, so that the humidifying module 300 does not interfere with the drawer 110 when the door body 200 is opened and the drawer 110 is pulled out.

[0149] It can be understood that when the drawer 110 is pulled out, there is a gap between the humidifying module 300 and the drawer 110 along the width direction of the refrigerator, so that the humidifying module 300 does not interfere with the drawer 110.

[0150] Of course, in some embodiments, the humidifying module 300 can also be arranged in the area of the door liner 220 away from the side connected by rotation, and at the maximum pull-out position of the drawer 110, the drawer 110 and the humidifying module 300 have a gap along the depth direction of the refrigerator, so that the humidifying module 300 does not interfere with the drawer 110. At this time, the volume of the humidifying module 300 is limited, so that the liquid storage space of the humidifying module 300 is limited.

[0151] In some embodiments of the present application, in combination with Figure 2 and Figure 3 The two ends of the humidifying module 300 along the width direction of the door body 200 respectively extend to the two door liner ribs 221.

[0152] In this way, the humidifying module 300 has a larger size along the width direction of the door body 200, which is beneficial to expand the liquid storage space of the humidifying module 300, reduce the water filling frequency, and improve the convenience of use.

[0153] In some embodiments of the present application, the humidifying module 300 and the door shelf 210 above it have a first gap along the height direction of the door body 200. For example, the first gap can be greater than 40mm. In this way, when the water inlet is arranged on the top wall of the humidifying module 300, it is beneficial to improve the convenience of water filling.

[0154] In some embodiments of the present application, the humidifying module 300 and the door seal below it have a second gap along the height direction of the door body 200. In this way, the sinking of the door body 200 can be avoided to cause the sealing failure of the door body 200. The second gap can be greater than 3mm.

[0155] In some embodiments of the present application, the size of the humidifying module 300 along the height direction of the door body 200 is greater than the size of the humidifying module 300 along the thickness direction of the door body 200. In this way, the humidifying module 300 has a larger size along the height direction of the door body 200, which facilitates increasing the liquid storage space of the humidifying module 300 and reducing the frequency of adding water.

[0156] In some embodiments of the present application, the humidifying module 300 is flat, and the humidifying module 300 is arranged parallel to the door body 200. In this way, the humidifying module 300 can have a larger area to increase the liquid storage space of the humidifying module 300, and the humidifying module 300 can also avoid having a large size along the thickness direction of the door body 200, which affects the operation of other components in the refrigerator, such as the drawer.

[0157] In some possible implementations, the humidifying module 300 is substantially flat and cuboid. The width direction of the humidifying module 300 is parallel to the width direction of the door body 200, the height direction of the humidifying module 300 is parallel to the height direction of the door body 200, and the thickness direction of the humidifying module 300 is parallel to the thickness direction of the door body 200. The height and width of the humidifying module 300 are both greater than the thickness of the humidifying module 300. In this way, the appearance of the humidifying module 300 is regular, which facilitates processing and installation.

[0158] Continuing to refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present application, the door liner 220 is recessed away from the refrigeration compartment to form the mounting groove 230.

[0159] The mounting groove 230 is offset from the door shelf 210 on the side of the door liner 220 facing the refrigeration compartment, that is, the mounting groove 230 is arranged in the area of the door liner 220 where the door shelf 210 is not arranged. For example, the mounting groove 230 is arranged below all the door shelves 210.

[0160] The mounting groove 230 is open toward the inside of the refrigeration compartment. The mounting groove 230 has two groove side walls 232 spaced apart along the width direction of the door body 200, a top end groove wall connected to the top ends of the two groove side walls 232, a bottom end groove wall connected to the bottom ends of the two groove side walls 232, and a groove bottom wall 231 connected to the two groove side walls 232, the bottom end groove wall, and the top end groove wall and located at one end of the two groove side walls 232 facing the outside of the door body 200. In this way, the groove bottom wall 231, the two groove side walls 232, the bottom end groove wall, and the top end groove wall together form the mounting groove 230 open toward the inside of the refrigeration compartment.

[0161] The groove side wall 232 is flush with the inner side of the door liner rib 221, so that the structure of the door liner 220 is regular, which facilitates processing and demolding.

[0162] The humidifying module 300 is installed in the installation groove 230, which reduces the size of the humidifying module 300 protruding from the inner surface 222 of the door liner 220, and avoids the installation of the humidifying module 300 affecting the pulling of the lowermost drawer in the refrigeration compartment. The inner surface 222 of the door liner 220 is the side of the door liner 220 facing the refrigeration compartment.

[0163] In some embodiments, the humidifying module 300 can be installed in the installation groove 230 in a matching manner, so that the shape of the humidifying module 300 on the inner surface 222 of the door liner 220 matches the shape of the installation groove 230. For example, the humidifying module 300 is rectangular on the inner surface 222 of the door liner 220, and the installation groove 230 is a rectangular installation groove 230. In this way, the installation space for the humidifying module 300 can be provided, and the installation groove 230 is not set too large to affect the heat preservation performance of the door body 200.

[0164] In some embodiments of the present application, the installation groove 230 extends to the two door liner ribs 221 along the two ends of the door body 200 in the width direction (corresponding to the X-axis direction in the figure) to provide sufficient installation space for the humidifying module 300. Figure 2

[0165] In some embodiments of the present application, the door liner 220 is recessed towards the door shell 240 to form the installation groove 230, so that the spacing between the installation groove 230 part of the door liner 220 and the door shell 240 is reduced, and the thickness of the door heat insulation part in this area is reduced, which is not conducive to the heat preservation and insulation of the door body 200.

[0166] Therefore, in some embodiments of the present application, in combination with Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the door body 200 further comprises a heat insulation plate 241, which is arranged between the door heat insulation part and the door liner 220. The heat insulation plate 241 is opposite to the installation groove in the thickness direction of the door body, so as to improve the heat insulation and heat preservation performance of the installation groove 230 part.

[0167] The groove wall of the installation groove 230 comprises the bottom wall 231, the two side walls 232, the bottom end wall and the top end wall mentioned above.

[0168] In some embodiments, the heat insulation plate 241 is arranged between the door heat insulation part and the bottom wall 231 of the installation groove 230, so that the structure of the heat insulation plate 241 is simple and easy to install.

[0169] The thermal conductivity of the heat insulation plate 241 is less than that of the door heat insulation part, so that the thermal resistance of the heat insulation plate 241 is greater than that of the door heat insulation part, the heat insulation performance of the installation groove 230 is improved, and the overall heat insulation performance of the door body 200 is ensured, and the heat insulation performance of the refrigerator is ensured.

[0170] ​Exemplarily, the heat insulation plate 241 can be a vacuum insulation panel (VIP). The door heat insulation member can be a foaming layer, such as a polyurethane foaming layer, etc.

[0171] With reference to the foregoing Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments of the present application, the door liner 220 is provided with a planar portion 223, part of the planar portion 223 is located at the bottom side of the mounting groove 230, and the planar portion is located at the side of the mounting groove 230 close to the rotating connection of the door body 200.

[0172] Exemplarily, the planar portion 223 is substantially L-shaped. The part of the planar portion 223 extending along the height direction of the door body 200 is located at the side of the mounting groove 230 close to the rotating connection of the door body 200, and the part of the planar portion 223 extending along the width direction of the door body 200 is located at the bottom side of the mounting groove 230.

[0173] The part of the planar portion 223 extending along the height direction of the door body 200 is located below the door liner rib 221 close to the rotating connection of the door body 200, and the planar portion 223 of this part is opposite to the lowermost drawer in the refrigeration compartment along the depth direction of the refrigerator.

[0174] In combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 , along the thickness direction of the door body 200, the planar portion 223 does not protrude from the door liner rib 221, and can avoid the pulling of the lowermost drawer in the refrigeration compartment. In this way, the planar portion 223 does not interfere with the lowermost drawer when it is pulled out.

[0175] The planar portion 223 is connected with the groove wall of the mounting groove 230. Specifically, the part of the planar portion 223 extending along the height direction of the door body (corresponding to the Z-axis direction in Figure 3 ) is connected with the groove side wall 232, and the part of the planar portion 223 extending along the width direction of the door body (corresponding to the X-axis direction in Figure 3 and Figure 4 ) is connected with the bottom end groove wall.

[0176] In some embodiments, the humidifying module 300 has an outer surface 311 facing away from the door liner 220. Along the thickness direction of the door body (corresponding to the Y-axis direction in Figure 4 ), the outer surface 311 does not protrude from the planar portion 223. In this way, the humidifying module 300 is embedded in the mounting groove, avoiding the influence of the humidifying module 300 on the pulling of the lowermost drawer.

[0177] When the door body is closed, the outer surface 311 of the humidifying module 300 faces the refrigeration compartment.

[0178] The outer surface 311 of the humidifying module 300 can be flush with the planar portion 223, so as to accommodate the humidifying module 300 and avoid excessive depth of the mounting groove, thereby affecting the heat preservation performance of the door body 200.

[0179] The outer surface 311 of the humidifying module 300 can be lower than the planar portion 223, that is, the outer surface 311 of the humidifying module 300 and the planar portion 223 have a spacing along the thickness direction of the door body. In this way, the installation error and machining error of the humidifying module 300 can be compatible, and it is ensured that the outer surface 311 of the humidifying module 300 does not affect the pulling of the lowermost drawer.

[0180] In some embodiments of the present application, the planar portion 223 can protrude from the inner surface 222 of the door liner 220 along the thickness direction of the door body. In this way, the planar portion 223 is in contact with the cabinet, and the door seal structure is arranged on the periphery of the planar portion 223, thereby improving the cold leakage problem of the door body.

[0181] In combination with Figure 5 In some embodiments, the lowermost door shelf 210 on the door body 200 can be opposite to the lowermost drawer 110 in the refrigeration compartment 101 along the depth direction of the refrigerator. The opening angle of the door body 200 can be greater than 90°, so that the lowermost door shelf 210 does not affect the pulling of the drawer 110.

[0182] In some embodiments, the humidifying module 300 and the door shelf 210 on the door body 200 are staggered along the height direction of the door body 200, so as to avoid the installation of the humidifying module 300 affecting the installation of the door shelf 210.

[0183] For example, the humidifying module 300 can be located above the door shelf 210, for example, the humidifying module 300 can be arranged in Figure 5 the A area and the B area. At this time, the humidifying module 300 is a certain distance from the bottom end of the refrigeration compartment 101, and the humid air generated by the humidifying module 300 can naturally sink, thereby improving the consistency of the humidity of the entire refrigeration compartment 101.

[0184] For example, the humidifying module 300 can also be located below the door shelf 210, as shown in Figure 1 the humidifying module 300 does not occupy the storage height space above the door shelf 210.

[0185] In this embodiment, the side of the door body 200 facing the refrigeration compartment 101 forms a mounting groove, and the humidifying module 300 is installed in the mounting groove. In this way, the protruding size of the humidifying module 300 along the thickness direction of the door body can be reduced, and the storage space of the door shelf 210 occupied by the humidifying module 300 can be reduced.

[0186] In some embodiments of the present application, in combination with Figure 6 andFigure 7 When the door shelf 210 is arranged below the humidifying module 300, the outer surface 311 of the humidifying module 300 is closer to the outer side of the door body relative to the inner side of the bottom side plate 215 of the door shelf 210 along the thickness direction of the door body (corresponding to the Y-axis direction in the figure). Figure 6

[0187] In this way, along the thickness direction of the door body, the outer surface 311 of the humidifying module 300 does not protrude from the inner side of the bottom side plate 215. When the bottom side plate 215 of the door shelf 210 is used to place articles, even if the articles are placed close to the inner side of the bottom side plate 215, the humidifying module 300 does not affect the placement of the articles, thereby reducing or even avoiding the occupation of the storage space of the door shelf 210.

[0188] In some embodiments, along the thickness direction of the door body, the outer surface 311 of the humidifying module 300 does not protrude from the inner surface 222 of the door liner 220, so that the humidifying module 300 does not affect the storage space of the door shelf 210 even if it is located above the door shelf 210.

[0189] In some embodiments of the present application, in combination with Figure 8 The humidifying module 300 can be detachably mounted on the door body 200. In this way, the humidifying module 300 can be detached from the door body 200 for water filling, cleaning, etc., thereby improving the convenience of use of the humidifying module 300.

[0190] In another embodiment of the present application, the humidifying module 300 can be water filled on the door body 200, avoiding the disassembly of the humidifying module 300, and reducing the operation difficulty of water filling.

[0191] In yet another embodiment of the present application, the humidifying module 300 can be water filled on the door body 200 and can also be detached from the door body 200 for water filling, and the water filling mode is more flexible, and the cleaning and maintenance of the humidifying module 300 are convenient.

[0192] In some embodiments, the humidifying module 300 can be rotatably mounted on the door body 200, and the humidifying module 300 can be rotated relative to the door body 200 to expose the water inlet 304, thereby facilitating water filling by the user.

[0193] Generally, as shown in the figure, the water inlet 304 is arranged on the top side of the humidifying module 300, which is beneficial to the arrangement of a larger liquid storage space. Figure 8

[0194] When the door body 200 is closed to the refrigeration compartment 101, at this time the humidifying module 300 is fixed relative to the door body 200, which is a state that the humidifying module 300 is not water filled. The water inlet 304 can be directed to the top end of the door body 200, which can hide the water inlet 304 on one hand and reduce the possibility of water overflow of the water inlet 304 on the other hand.​​

[0195] In some embodiments of the present application, when the door shelf 210 is arranged above the refrigeration compartment 101 and the humidifying module 300, the projection of the door shelf 210 on the first plane covers the water inlet 304. The first plane is a plane determined by the width direction and the thickness direction of the door body 200. In this way, when viewed from the top end of the door body 200 towards the bottom end along the height direction of the door body 200, the door shelf 210 blocks the water inlet 304.

[0196] In some embodiments of the present application, when the door body 200 closes the refrigeration compartment 101, the projection of the door body 200 on the first plane covers at least part of the water inlet 304, so that at least part of the humidifying module 300 is hidden in the door body 200, reducing the volume of the humidifying module 300 protruding from the door body 200. In this way, when viewed from the top end of the door body 200 towards the bottom end along the height direction of the door body 200, the door body 200 blocks at least part of the water inlet 304.

[0197] For example, in combination with Figure 2 , the side of the door body 200 facing the refrigeration compartment 101 is provided with a mounting groove 230, the thickness of the door body 200 forming the mounting groove 230 is smaller, and the thickness of the door body 200 above the mounting groove 230 is larger. When the humidifying module 300 is installed in the mounting groove 230, the projection of the door body 200 above the mounting groove 230 on the first plane covers at least part of the water inlet 304, i.e., the projection of the top groove wall of the mounting groove 230 on the first plane covers at least part of the water inlet 304. In this way, not only can the water inlet 304 be hidden, but also at least part of the humidifying module 300 can be hidden in the door body 200, which is beneficial to save the space of the humidifying module 300 protruding from the door body 200.

[0198] In another possible embodiment of the present application, in combination with Figure 3 , the water inlet 304 is located on the side of the humidifying module 300 facing the refrigeration compartment 101. In this way, the convenience of water filling can be improved. The water inlet 304 can be arranged close to the top end of the humidifying module 300, so that the humidifying module 300 has a larger water storage space.

[0199] Of course, in some implementations, the water inlet 304 can also be located on one side of the humidifying module 300 along the width direction of the door body 200, for example, the water inlet 304 is located on the side of the door body 200 away from the hinge. In this way, the water inlet 304 faces the opening side of the door body 200, and the operation space of water filling is sufficient, which is beneficial to improve the convenience of water filling.

[0200] In some embodiments, the humidifying module 300 has a first side and a second side along the width direction of the door body 200, and one of the bottom of the humidifying module 300, the first side of the humidifying module 300 and the second side of the humidifying module 300 is rotatably connected with the door body 200.

[0201] In this way, the water inlet 304 on the top side of the humidifying module 300 can be spaced apart from the door body 200, facilitating water filling by the user.

[0202] Some embodiments of the present application rotatably connect the bottom, the first side or the second side of the humidifying module 300 with the door body 200, which can not only realize the connection between the humidifying module 300 and the door body 200, but also enable the humidifying module 300 to rotate relative to the door body 200, facilitating water filling by the user. The installation mode of the humidifying module 300 is flexible.

[0203] In some embodiments of the present application, the humidifying module 300 is rotatably connected with the door body 200, and the humidifying module 300 is configured to rotate relative to the door body 200 to move the water inlet 304 away from the door body 200, so that the water inlet 304 is spaced apart from the door body 200 along the thickness direction of the door body 200.

[0204] For example, the bottom of the humidifying module 300 is rotatably connected with the door body 200, and the rotatable connection position of the humidifying module 300 and the water inlet 304 are located at two ends of the humidifying module 300 along the height direction of the door body 200, so that the humidifying module 300 can be rotated by a small angle to make the water inlet 304 have a large spacing from the door body 200 along the thickness direction of the door body 200, and the water inlet 304 is inclined outward, making the water filling operation simpler. Moreover, the rotation of the humidifying module 300 is more labor-saving due to the gravity of the humidifying module 300.

[0205] When the humidifying module 300 is installed in the installation slot 230, the bottom of the humidifying module 300 is rotatably connected with the door body 200, which can avoid the rotation of the humidifying module 300 interfering with the door ribs 221, making the rotatable connection of the humidifying module 300 simpler to implement.

[0206] The rotation angle of the humidifying module 300 can be unlimited, and the user can rotate the humidifying module 300 by a certain angle according to actual needs to fill water, which is more flexible in operation.

[0207] In some embodiments of the present application, the humidifying module 300 is rotatably connected with the door body 200, and the humidifying module 300 is configured to rotate relative to the door body 200 between a first position and a second position.

[0208] The first position is a position where the water inlet 304 of the humidifying module 300 faces the top of the door body 200, and the second position is a position where the water inlet 304 of the humidifying module 300 faces the bottom of the door body 200. Figure 3and Figure 6 As shown in FIG. 6, the outer surface 311 of the humidifying module 300 is parallel to the inner surface 222 of the door liner 220 at this time. As shown in FIG. 7, the water inlet 304 of the humidifying module 300 is at a preset interval along the thickness direction of the door body 200 from the door body 200 at this time. Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown in FIG. 6, the outer surface 311 of the humidifying module 300 is parallel to the inner surface 222 of the door liner 220 at this time. As shown in FIG. 7, the water inlet 304 of the humidifying module 300 is at a preset interval along the thickness direction of the door body 200 from the door body 200 at this time.

[0209] In some embodiments of the present application, the humidifying module 300 is configured to rotate between the first position and the second position, so that the water filling position of the humidifying module 300 is fixed, facilitating user operation; and the possibility of accidental rotation of the humidifying module 300 during water filling can be reduced, ensuring the stability and reliability of the humidifying module 300 during water filling, and reducing the risk of water splashing.

[0210] In some embodiments of the present application, when the door shelf 210 is above the humidifying module 300, the convenience of water filling operation of the humidifying module 300 is affected due to the limitation of the door shelf 210.

[0211] Therefore, the humidifying module 300 is configured to rotate relative to the door body 200, so that the projection of the water inlet 304 on the plane where the bottom side plate 215 of the door shelf 210 is located is located outside the bottom side plate 215.

[0212] In this way, when the humidifying module 300 is in the second position, the water inlet 304 is rotated to the outside of the door shelf 210, improving the operation space for water filling, thereby improving the convenience of water filling and reducing the possibility of interference between the water filling container and the door shelf 210.

[0213] In another embodiment of the present application, when the humidifying module 300 is in the second position, the projection of the water inlet 304 on the plane where the bottom side plate 215 is located can be located inside the bottom side plate 215, but on the side of the bottom side plate 215 away from the door body 200.

[0214] Since the top surface of the humidifying module 300 is inclined outward when the humidifying module 300 is in the second position, the water inlet 304 is inclined outward, and an angle is formed between the direction of the water inlet 304 and the height direction of the door body 200, which is beneficial to water filling operation. Therefore, even if the projection of the water inlet 304 on the plane where the bottom side plate 215 is located can be located on the bottom side plate 215, water filling can still be achieved.

[0215] In some embodiments of the present application, the bottom end of the humidifying module 300 is rotatably mounted on the door body 200, and the projection of the door body 200 in the first plane does not cover the water inlet 304 when the humidifying module 300 is water filled, so that the side of the water inlet 304 facing the refrigeration compartment 101 is exposed relative to the door body 200, facilitating water filling through the water inlet 304.

[0216] Exemplarily, in combination with Figure 2 , the door body 200 is provided with a mounting groove 230 on the side facing the refrigeration compartment 101. The thickness of the door body 200 forming the mounting groove 230 is smaller, and the thickness of the door body 200 above the mounting groove 230 is larger. When the humidifying module 300 is mounted in the mounting groove 230, the projection of the door body 200 above the mounting groove 230 on the first plane does not cover the water injection port 304, so that the top end groove wall of the mounting groove 230 does not cover the water injection port 304 on the first plane, so that the water injection port 304 is exposed to the side of the door body 200 facing the refrigeration compartment, facilitating water injection through the water injection port 304.

[0217] In some implementations, the water injection port 304 is provided on the top side of the humidifying module 300, and the door shelf 210 above the humidifying module 300 and the humidifying module 300 have a predetermined water injection interval along the height direction of the door body 200, so as to inject water into the water injection port 304 through the water injection interval.

[0218] The water injection interval should be such that the water injection port of the water injection container can be inserted. For example, when a purified water bottle is used for water injection, the water injection interval should be such that the bottle opening of the purified water bottle is inserted.

[0219] However, when the water injection port 304 is close to the door body 200 along the thickness direction of the door body 200, for example Figure 6 the humidifying module 300 shown in the figure is embedded in the door body 200, water injection can still be inconvenient. Moreover, the space of the water injection interval is not effectively utilized.

[0220] Therefore, the humidifying module 300 of the embodiment of the present application rotates relative to the door body 200, so that the water injection port 304 is away from the door body 200, and the interval with the door body 200 is increased, the water injection operation space is expanded, and the convenience of water injection is improved.

[0221] In some embodiments, the door body 200 and the humidifying module 300 can be connected by a hinge rotation, and the connection mode is stable and reliable.

[0222] Referring to Figure 9 and Figure 10 In other embodiments, one of the door body 200 and the humidifying module 300 is provided with a rotating shaft 233, and the other is configured to form a rotating hole 331; the rotating shaft 233 is rotatably mounted in the rotating hole 331, so that the humidifying module 300 can rotate relative to the door body 200.

[0223] Exemplarily, the door body 200 is provided with a rotating shaft 233, and the rotating shaft 233 is arranged on the door liner 220. The humidifying module 300 is provided with a rotating hole 331. In this way, the door body 200 does not need to be provided with a hole, and the integrity of the door liner 220 can be ensured, which is beneficial to the heat preservation of the door body 200. The humidifying module 300 is provided with the rotating hole 331, and the processing is simpler.

[0224] Exemplarily, the door body 200 is provided with a rotating hole 331, and the rotating hole 331 is arranged on the door liner 220. The humidifying module 300 is provided with a rotating shaft 233. In this way, the humidifying module 300 does not need to be provided with a hole, and the possibility of liquid leakage of the humidifying module 300 is reduced.

[0225] The door body 200 and the humidifying module 300 are rotatably connected through the rotating shaft 233 and the rotating hole 331, and the connection structure is simple and convenient for processing and assembly.

[0226] In some embodiments, the rotating shaft 233 is configured to be capable of being separated from the rotating hole 331, so that the humidifying module 300 is detachable relative to the door body 200, and the humidifying module 300 is convenient for being detached from the door body 200 for maintenance, cleaning, water adding and the like.

[0227] Therefore, the humidifying module 300 and the door body 200 are rotatably connected, and the humidifying module 300 is further configured to be detachable relative to the door body 200 after the humidifying module 300 is rotated relative to the door body 200. In this way, after the humidifying module 300 is rotated relative to the door body 200, part of the humidifying module 300 is away from the door body 200, the detachable operation space of the humidifying module 300 is expanded, the rotation operation of the humidifying module 300 is labor-saving, the convenience of detachment of the humidifying module 300 is improved, and the operation of the humidifying module 300 is simple and convenient.

[0228] In some embodiments, the axis direction of the rotating shaft 233 can be parallel to the inner surface 222 of the door body 200. The inner surface 222 of the door body 200 is the surface of the door body 200 facing the refrigeration compartment 101.

[0229] For example, the axis direction of the rotating shaft 233 is parallel to the width direction of the door body 200. In this way, the rotating shaft 233 is located at the bottom of the humidifying module 300, the bottom of the humidifying module 300 is rotatably connected with the door body 200, the humidifying module 300 is rotated by a smaller angle, the water inlet 304 is spaced apart from the door body 200 along the thickness direction of the door body 200 by a larger distance, and the water inlet 304 is inclined outward, so that the water adding operation is simpler.

[0230] For another example, the axial direction of the rotating shaft 233 is parallel to the height direction of the door body 200. In this way, the rotating shaft 233 can be arranged on the first side or the second side of the humidifying module 300, so that the humidifying module 300 rotates in the horizontal plane without overcoming the gravity of the humidifying module 300 during rotation, and the operation is more convenient.

[0231] In actual refrigerator products, due to processing errors or installation errors, the axial direction of the rotating shaft 233 can have a certain angle with the height direction of the door body 200.

[0232] When the rotating shaft 233 is arranged along the height direction of the door body 200, and the first side or the second side of the humidifying module 300 is rotationally connected with the rotating shaft 233, the position of the door body 200 opposite to the first side or the second side of the humidifying module 300 does not interfere with the rotation of the humidifying module 300.

[0233] For example, in combination with Figure 33 The humidifying module 300 rotates in the horizontal plane. Among them, the rotating shaft 233 is arranged along the height direction of the door body 200, and the rotating shaft 233 is located on the side of the humidifying module 300 facing the hinge side of the door body 200, and the part of the door body 200 opposite to the humidifying module 300 does not interfere with the rotation of the humidifying module 300.

[0234] Among them, the water inlet 304 can be located on the top side of the humidifying module 300, so that the water inlet 304 is away from the door body 200 when the humidifying module 300 rotates relative to the door body 200, facilitating water filling.

[0235] The following takes the axial direction of the rotating shaft 233 extending along the width direction of the door body 200 as an example, and the rotating shaft 233 is located at the bottom of the humidifying module 300 as an example.

[0236] In some possible implementation manners, two rotating shafts 233 are arranged, and the two rotating shafts 233 are coaxially arranged. The two rotating shafts 233 are respectively located on the side of the two door ribs 221 facing each other. The axial direction of the rotating shaft 233 is parallel to the width direction of the door body 200.

[0237] In some specific implementation manners, the humidifying module 300 is installed in the mounting groove 230, and the two rotating shafts 233 are respectively arranged on the two groove side walls 232 of the mounting groove 230.

[0238] The humidifying module 300 is respectively configured with a rotating hole 331 on both sides along the width direction of the door body, and the rotating hole 331 is located at the bottom of the humidifying module 300. In this way, the door body does not need to provide a large rotating avoidance space for the rotation of the humidifying module 300, which is beneficial to guarantee the heat preservation performance of the door body.

[0239] This embodiment of the application achieves a rotatable connection between the humidification module 300 and the door body by setting two rotating shafts 233. The connection method is stable and reliable, and there is no need to set excessively long rotating shafts 233, which would increase the assembly difficulty. Moreover, by setting the rotating holes 331 on both sides of the humidification module 300 along the width direction of the door body, the exposure of the rotating connection structure can be reduced, or even hidden, improving the aesthetics of the installation of the humidification module 300.

[0240] Combination Figure 11 In some possible implementations of this application, the humidification module 300 is along the width direction of the door (corresponding to...) Figure 11 On both sides of the X-axis, there are rings 330, which form a rotating hole 331.

[0241] This can be understood as follows: the humidification module 300 has rings 330 on both sides along the width of the door to form a rotating hole 331.

[0242] This design eliminates the need for direct openings in the humidification module 300, reducing the impact on the airtightness of the liquid storage space within the humidification module 300. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the rotating hole 331 is formed using the ring body 330, eliminating the need to create a large wall thickness area for the rotating hole 331, thus facilitating the molding of the outer shell of the humidification module 300.

[0243] Continue to refer to Figure 11 In some embodiments of this application, the humidification module 300 is located along the width direction of the door (corresponding to...). Figure 11 The two sides of the structure in the X-axis direction form a recess 312. The recess 312 is recessed away from the side wall of the mounting groove.

[0244] The humidification module 300 has two first sides 313, which are opposite to each other and spaced apart along the width direction of the door. Parts of the two first sides 313 are recessed towards each other to form recesses 312.

[0245] The ring 330 is disposed in the recessed portion 312. This arrangement reduces the volume of the ring 330 protruding from the humidification module 300, thereby improving the structural compactness of the humidification module 300.

[0246] In some embodiments, the end of the ring 330 that is away from the recess 312 does not protrude from the first side 313 of the humidification module 300.

[0247] This can be understood as follows: the end of the ring body 330 that is away from the recessed portion 312 is flush with the first side surface 313, or the end of the ring body 330 that is away from the recessed portion 312 is lower than the first side surface 313, that is, the ring body 330 is located inside the recessed portion 312.

[0248] Some embodiments of the present application set the recess 312 on the first side 313 of the humidifying module 300 to accommodate and install the ring body 330, so that the ring body 330 does not protrude from the first side 313, which is conducive to improving the structural compactness of the humidifying module 300, reducing the possibility of the ring body 330 being exposed inside the door body 200, and facilitating the concealment of the rotating connection structure of the humidifying module 300 and the door body.

[0249] In combination Figure 11 and Figure 12 In some embodiments of the present application, the ring body 330 is provided with a disassembly opening 332 that communicates with the rotating hole 331. It can be understood that the ring body 330 is an open ring, and the disassembly opening 332 is formed on the side wall of the ring body 330.

[0250] The rotating shaft 233 is configured to be detached from the rotating hole 331 through the disassembly opening 332, so that the humidifying module 300 is detached from the door body 200, which is conducive to maintenance, cleaning, etc., and also allows the humidifying module 300 to be refilled with water.

[0251] Some embodiments of the present application set the disassembly opening 332 on the ring body 330 that communicates with the rotating hole 331, so that the rotating shaft 233 can be detached from the rotating shaft 233 through the disassembly opening, realizing the disassembly of the humidifying module 300, which is simple in structure, high in operability, and convenient to disassemble.

[0252] Continuing to refer to Figure 11 and Figure 12 In some embodiments, the ring body 330 includes: an arc-shaped ring portion 333 configured to form the rotating hole 331, which is conducive to ensuring the cooperation of the rotating shaft 233 and the rotating hole 331, so that the humidifying module 300 can rotate relative to the rotating shaft 233. Moreover, the arc-shaped ring portion 333 is an open ring having an opening, and the opening of the arc-shaped ring portion 333 is configured to form the disassembly opening 332.

[0253] In some embodiments, the ring body 330 can further include an inclined portion 334 connected to one end of the opening end of the arc-shaped ring portion 333; the end of the inclined portion 334 away from the arc-shaped ring portion 333 is inclined toward the door body.

[0254] The end of the inclined portion 334 away from the arc-shaped ring portion 333 is inclined away from the vertical center line, wherein the vertical center line is a straight line extending along the vertical direction of the door body (corresponding to the Figure 12 Z-axis direction) and passing through the center of the arc-shaped ring portion 333.

[0255] The ring body 330 of some embodiments of the present application provides guidance for the rotating shaft 233 to enter and exit the rotating hole 331 by setting the inclined portion 334, so that the disassembly operation of the rotating shaft 233 relative to the rotating hole 331 is more convenient, and the operability of disassembling the humidifying module 300 is improved.

[0256] Continue to refer to Figure 11 and Figure 12 In some embodiments of this application, the recessed portion 312 has a side rib wall 3121, and the side rib wall 3121 is perpendicular to the door body along the thickness direction of the door body (corresponding to...). Figure 12 (in the Y-axis direction) opposite. Among them, the side rib wall 3121 can be located on the side of the recess 312 away from the door body.

[0257] One end of the opening of the ring 330 is connected to the side rib wall 3121. One end of the opening of the arc-shaped ring 333 is connected to the side rib wall 3121, and the other end of the opening of the arc-shaped ring 333 is connected to the inclined portion 334.

[0258] Thus, the ring 330 not only guides the rotating shaft 233 into and out of the rotating hole 331 using the inclined portion 334, but also connects the open end of the ring 330 to the side rib wall 3121, thereby restricting the rotation of the rotating shaft 233 into and out of the rotating hole 331. Moreover, the connection between the ring 330 and the side rib wall 3121 also helps to improve the structural stability of the ring 330.

[0259] The side rib wall 3121 is located on the side of the ring body 330 facing the outer surface 311 of the humidification module 300, and can serve to shield at least part of the ring body 330.

[0260] Continue to refer to Figure 12 In some embodiments, the inner circumferential surface of the ring 330 is tangentially connected to the side rib wall 3121 facing the inner side surface of the ring 330. This arrangement can not only reduce the stress at the connection between the ring 330 and the side rib wall 3121 and improve the stability and reliability of the connection between the ring 330 and the side rib wall 3121, but also improve the smoothness of the shaft entering and exiting the rotating hole 331.

[0261] Reference Figure 11 to Figure 12 In some possible implementations, the humidification module 300 has a back side 314 facing the door and a bottom side 315 connected to the bottom end of the back side 314.

[0262] Thus, the outer surface 311 of the humidification module 300 and the back side 314 of the humidification module 300 are aligned along the thickness direction of the door (corresponding to...). Figure 11 The humidifier modules 300 are positioned opposite each other and spaced apart (in the Y-axis direction). The back side 314 of the humidifier module 300 is the side of the humidifier module 300 facing the door.

[0263] Combination Figure 11 and Figure 12 An inclined surface 316 is provided between the back side surface 314 and the bottom side surface 315. The inclined surface 316 forms an angle with the back side surface 314, and the inclined surface 316 forms an angle with the bottom side surface 315.

[0264] Referring to Figure 13 to Figure 15 The inclined surface 316 is configured to abut against the surface of the door body facing the refrigeration compartment; and the humidifying module 300 is configured to rotate relative to the door body until the inclined surface 316 abuts against the door body.

[0265] When the humidifying module 300 is installed in the installation groove 230, the inclined surface 316 abuts against the groove bottom wall of the installation groove 230, thereby limiting the rotation angle of the humidifying module 300 relative to the door body.

[0266] When the inclined surface 316 abuts against the door body, the humidifying module 300 is rotated to a second position. The second position is a position where the water inlet 304 of the humidifying module 300 has a preset interval with the door body along the thickness direction of the door body. That is, the position where the inclined surface 316 abuts against the door body is the position of the humidifying module 300 when water is added.

[0267] In the embodiments of the present application, the inclined surface 316 is arranged between the back side 314 and the bottom side 315 of the humidifying module 300, which can at least partially flatten the protruding connection between the back side 314 and the bottom side 315, avoid the rotation angle of the humidifying module 300 being limited by the door body, and limit the rotation position of the humidifying module 300 by the inclined surface 316 between the back side 314 and the bottom side 315 abutting against the door body, thereby ensuring the stability of the humidifying module 300 at the water adding position and avoiding accidental rotation of the humidifying module 300 when water is added.

[0268] In some embodiments, in combination with Figure 16 When the water inlet faces the top of the door body, the disassembly opening 332 is located below the rotating shaft 233. In this way, the humidifying module 300 is pressed against the rotating shaft 233 under its own gravity, which is beneficial to improve the reliability of the cooperation between the rotating shaft 233 and the rotating hole and reduce the possibility of the rotating shaft 233 being pulled out of the rotating hole.

[0269] In combination with Figure 15 When the humidifying module 300 is rotated to the water adding position, the disassembly opening 332 is rotated to a position where the bottom of the rotating shaft 233 is inclined backward, and the humidifying module 300 is pulled upward at an angle, so that the rotating shaft 233 is pulled out of the rotating hole through the disassembly opening 332. In this way, the convenience of the disassembly and assembly operation of the humidifying module 300 is improved.

[0270] It should be further noted that in the embodiments of the present application, the outer surface 311 of the humidifying module 300 is not provided with an operation handle for disassembly and assembly of the humidifying module 300, which can not only ensure the regularity of the appearance of the humidifying module 300, but also improve the compactness of the structure of the humidifying module 300 without occupying the liquid storage space of the humidifying module 300. When the humidifying module 300 is disassembled and assembled, the humidifying module 300 is inclined after being rotated relative to the door body 200, and the outer surface 311 of the humidifying module 300 is inclined relative to the door body 200,Figure 14 The user can directly perform the disassembly operation by holding the top of the humidifying module 300. Moreover, the humidifying module 300 has a relatively small size along the thickness direction of the door body 200, and is convenient to hold. Therefore, some embodiments of the present application do not need to provide a disassembly operation handle on the outer surface 311 of the humidifying module 300.

[0271] The specific structure and functions of the humidifying module 300 in some embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0272] As shown in Figure 17 and Figure 18 In some embodiments of the present application, the humidifying module 300 is configured to form a liquid storage cavity 301 for storing liquid for humidification.

[0273] The water inlet of the humidifying module 300 communicates with the liquid storage cavity 301, so as to add water to the liquid storage cavity 301. Since the water inlet is arranged on the top side of the humidifying module 300, at least part of the liquid storage cavity 301 extends to the top side of the humidifying module 300.

[0274] In some embodiments of the present application, the humidifying module 300 is further configured to form a mist outlet cavity 302 located on one side of the liquid storage cavity 301, for receiving the humidified water mist formed by the humidifying module 300.

[0275] The humidifying module 300 is further configured to form a mist outlet 303, which communicates with the mist outlet cavity 302 and faces the refrigeration compartment, so that the humidified water mist in the mist outlet cavity 302 is sprayed to the refrigeration compartment. In some embodiments of the present application, the mist outlet 303 is arranged on the outer surface 311 of the humidifying module 300, so that the humidified water mist is sprayed from the mist outlet 303 to the refrigeration compartment.

[0276] Exemplarily, the mist outlet 303 is arranged on the outer surface 311 of the humidifying module 300 facing the refrigeration compartment. The mist outlet 303 can be a long strip-shaped opening extending along the width direction of the humidifying module 300, having a large spraying area, which is beneficial to improve the humidification efficiency.

[0277] Continuing to refer to Figure 18 and Figure 19 The humidifying module 300 can include a shell assembly 310 mounted on the door body. The shell assembly 310 is configured to form the appearance of the humidifying module 300. The shell assembly 310 is at least configured to form the liquid storage cavity 301, the mist outlet cavity 302, and the mist outlet 303.

[0278] In some embodiments of the present application, the shell assembly 310 is substantially cuboid, and a first side of the shell assembly 310 along its width direction can be configured to form a rotating hole 331, which is rotatably connected with a rotating shaft on the door body, so as to realize the rotating connection between the humidifying module 300 and the door body. The water injection port 304 is arranged on the top side of the shell assembly 310.

[0279] The shell assembly 310 can include a first shell part and a second shell part, which are fixedly connected to jointly enclose the liquid storage cavity 301, the mist outlet cavity 302, the mist outlet 303, and the like. By arranging two shell parts, the shell assembly 310 can not only enclose the functional cavities, but also facilitate the installation of the internal structure of the shell assembly 310.

[0280] In combination with Figure 19 In some embodiments, the shell assembly 310 includes a front shell part 317 and a rear cover plate 318. The front shell part 317 can be a shell structure with an opening facing the door body, and the rear cover plate 318 covers the opening of the front shell part 317. The water injection port 304 and the mist outlet 303 are both arranged on the front shell part 317.

[0281] In this way, the structures of the functional cavities are formed in the front shell part 317, and the rear cover plate 318 is fixedly connected, so as to form the functional cavities, and the assembly precision of the rear cover plate 318 and the front shell part 317 is low.

[0282] In some embodiments, the front shell part 317 includes a front side plate, a top plate, a bottom plate, a left side plate, and a right side plate. The top plate, the bottom plate, the left side plate, and the right side plate are all arranged on the side of the front side plate facing the door body. The top plate and the bottom plate are arranged at the top end and the bottom end of the front side plate, respectively. The left side plate and the right side plate are arranged on the two sides of the front side plate along the width direction of the door body (corresponding to the X-axis direction in Figure 19 In this way, the front side plate, the top plate, the bottom plate, the left side plate, and the right side plate jointly enclose the front shell part 317 with an opening facing the door body.

[0283] The water injection port 304 is arranged on the top plate, and the mist outlet 303 is arranged on the front side plate. The inclined surface 316 is formed on the rear cover plate 318.

[0284] In some embodiments, the front shell part 317 can further include a first partition plate 3171, which extends along the width direction of the door body (corresponding to the X-axis direction in Figure 19 The two ends of the first partition plate 3171 are connected with the left side plate and the right side plate, respectively. Along the height direction of the door body (corresponding to the Z-axis direction in Figure 19 There is a gap between the first partition plate 3171 and the top plate, and there is a gap between the first partition plate 3171 and the bottom plate.

[0285] When the rear cover plate 318 is fixedly connected with the front shell part 317, the first partition plate 3171 abuts against the rear cover plate 318, so that the upper portion of the first partition plate 3171 forms the liquid storage cavity 301, and the lower portion of the first partition plate 3171 forms the mist outlet cavity 302.

[0286] With reference to the foregoing Figure 18 The humidification module 300 can include an atomizer 320 configured to generate humidified water mist. The atomizer 320 can be an ultrasonic humidifier, which has high humidification efficiency and low noise. The atomizer 320 can also utilize a pressure atomization method to generate the humidified water mist, such as a spray nozzle, a centrifugal atomization device, or the like.

[0287] In some embodiments, the atomizer 320 has opposite water inlet and mist outlet ends. The water inlet end is exposed to the liquid storage cavity 301 and is in contact with the liquid in the liquid storage cavity 301. The mist outlet end is exposed to the mist outlet cavity 302 to spray water mist into the mist outlet cavity 302.

[0288] The atomizer 320 is configured to generate water mist at the mist outlet end and to cause the water mist to be sprayed out through the mist outlet cavity 302 and the mist outlet 303.

[0289] In some embodiments, the atomizer 320 is in the form of a sheet, which occupies a small space. The atomizer 320 can be arranged in a horizontal plane, so as to ensure that the water inlet end of the atomizer 320 is in sufficient contact with the liquid in the liquid storage cavity 301.

[0290] For example, the atomizer 320 can be a microporous atomizing sheet. One side of the microporous atomizing sheet is the water inlet end, and the other side of the microporous atomizing sheet is the mist outlet end. When the atomizer 320 vibrates, the liquid at the water inlet end is forced to pass through the micropores of the atomizing sheet and is dispersed into fine droplets, which are sprayed out from the mist outlet end of the atomizing sheet to form the humidified water mist.

[0291] In some embodiments of the present application, a plurality of atomizers 320 are provided, and the plurality of atomizers 320 are arranged at intervals along the width direction of the humidification module 300 (corresponding to the X-axis direction in FIG. 1) to increase the humidified water mist and facilitate the improvement of the humidification efficiency. Figure 19

[0292] In some embodiments, the first partition plate 3171 is provided with a first through hole, and at least an end portion of the water inlet end of the atomizer 320 is opposite to the first through hole, so that the water inlet end of the atomizer 320 is exposed to the liquid storage cavity 301.

[0293] The atomizer 320 is sealingly mounted on the first partition plate 3171, and the atomizer 320 is located in the mist outlet cavity 302. In this way, the electrical connection of the atomizer 320 is facilitated, and the humidified water mist is sprayed into the mist outlet cavity 302.

[0294] With reference to the foregoing Figure 18 ​In some embodiments, the mist outlet direction of the mist outlet end of the atomizer 320 is different from the mist outlet direction of the mist outlet 303. For example, the mist outlet end sprays mist downward (corresponding to the negative direction of the Z-axis in Figure 18 ), the mist outlet 303 sprays mist toward the refrigeration room, and the mist outlet 303 sprays mist toward the positive direction of the Y-axis in Figure 18 ), and the mist outlet direction of the mist outlet end is perpendicular to the mist outlet direction of the mist outlet 303.

[0295] The mist outlet cavity 302 is provided with a mist guide cavity wall 3191 extending from the mist outlet end to the mist outlet 303, which plays a guiding role for the humidification water mist and avoids the humidification water mist from accumulating on the bottom wall of the mist outlet cavity 302 to form water droplets.

[0296] For example, the mist guide cavity wall 3191 is arc-shaped, which is beneficial to reducing the resistance of the spray path of the humidification water mist and improving the spray rate of the humidification water mist.

[0297] Continuing to refer to Figure 19 In some embodiments, the shell assembly 310 can further include a mist guide shell 319 installed in the mist outlet cavity 302, and part of the mist guide shell 319 is configured to form the mist guide cavity wall 3191. The rear cover plate 318 is provided with a relief opening for avoiding the installation of the mist guide shell 319.

[0298] The mist guide shell 319 can include a top shell wall, a bottom shell wall, and two first shell walls, the top shell wall being opposite to the first partition plate 3171, and the bottom shell wall being below the mist outlet 303. The top shell wall and the bottom shell wall are arranged in the height direction of the humidification module 300 (corresponding to the Z-axis direction in Figure 19 ), and the two first shell walls are arranged in the width direction of the humidification module 300 (corresponding to the X-axis direction in Figure 19 ) and connected to the two ends of the top shell wall and the bottom shell wall.

[0299] The top shell wall is provided with a second through hole opposite to the first through hole in the height direction of the humidification module 300. The atomizer 320 is sealingly installed between the first partition plate 3171 and the top shell wall.

[0300] The mist guide cavity wall 3191 has a first end and a second end in the height direction, and the first end is above the second end. The bottom end of the mist guide cavity wall 3191 is connected to the top shell wall and located on the side of the second through hole facing the rear cover plate 318. The second end of the mist guide cavity wall 3191 is connected to the end of the bottom shell wall away from the rear cover plate 318.

[0301] In some embodiments, the upper surface of the second end of the mist guide cavity wall 3191 is flush with the lower surface of the mist outlet 303, which can avoid the formation of water droplets caused by the formation of a step between the mist guide cavity wall 3191 and the mist outlet 303, and can avoid the mist guide cavity wall 3191 from extending into the mist outlet 303 to block the mist outlet 303.

[0302] In some embodiments, a threading hole is arranged on the mist guide wall 3191, so that the wire connected with the atomizer 320 passes through the threading hole to the side of the mist guide wall 3191 away from the mist outlet cavity 302, reducing the influence of the wire on the mist.

[0303] In some embodiments, the shell assembly 310 can further include a rear trim plate 3120, which is arranged on the mist guide shell 319 to shield the wire in the mist guide shell 319.

[0304] In some embodiments, the rear trim plate 3120 is flush with the rear cover plate 318, which not only ensures the regularity of the appearance of the shell assembly 310, but also makes the shell assembly 310 compact in structure.

[0305] In some embodiments of the present application, the shell assembly 310 forms the mist guide wall 3191 by arranging the mist guide shell 319, which is beneficial to simplify the structure of the front shell part 317, making the front shell part 317 easier to form; and is also beneficial to the installation and fixation of the atomizer 320.

[0306] The humidifying module 300 of the embodiments of the present application further forms an electrical cavity 305, which is used for electrical components of the humidifying module 300, such as the drive board of the atomizer 320, etc. The electrical cavity 305 is not communicated with the liquid storage cavity 301, so as to improve the safety of the electrical components in the electrical cavity 305.

[0307] In some embodiments, in combination with Figure 19 , the front shell part 317 can further include a second partition plate 3172, which can extend along the height direction of the door body (corresponding to the Z-axis direction in Figure 19 ). The top end of the second partition plate 3172 is connected with the top plate of the front shell part 317, and the bottom end of the second partition plate 3172 is connected with the first partition plate 3171. Along the width direction of the door body (corresponding to the X-axis direction in Figure 19 ), the second partition plate 3172 has a gap with the left side plate, and has a gap with the right side plate.

[0308] When the rear cover plate 318 is fixedly connected with the front shell part 317, the second partition plate 3172 abuts against the rear cover plate 318, so that one side of the second partition plate 3172 forms the liquid storage cavity 301, and the other side forms the electrical cavity 305.

[0309] Continuing to refer to Figure 19In some possible implementation manners of the present application, the humidifying module 300 is provided with a first electrical connector 360, which is located at the top of the humidifying module 300. The first electrical connector 360 is arranged at the top of the electrical cavity 305, so as to facilitate electrical connection between the first electrical connector 360 and the electrical components in the electrical cavity 305. For example, the first electrical connector 360 can be electrically connected to the driving board of the atomizer 320 through a wire.

[0310] The door body is provided with a second electrical connector, which is used to connect the power supply of the refrigerator.

[0311] When the humidifying module 300 is fixed to the door body, the first electrical connector 360 and the second electrical connector are electrically connected to supply power to the humidifying module 300.

[0312] The second electrical connector can also be electrically connected to the controller of the refrigerator. In this way, the first electrical connector 360 and the second electrical connector can also be communicatively connected, and the controller of the refrigerator can control the working state of the atomizer 320 through the second electrical connector and the first electrical connector 360.

[0313] When the humidifying module 300 rotates relative to the door body to make the water inlet 304 have a preset interval along the thickness direction of the door body, the first electrical connector 360 is disconnected from the second electrical connector.

[0314] Some embodiments of the present application provide the first electrical connector 360 at the top of the humidifying module 300, and the first electrical connector 360 is electrically connected to the second electrical connector arranged on the door body to supply power to the humidifying module 300. In addition, the first electrical connector 360 and the second electrical connector are detachably connected, so that when the humidifying module 300 rotates relative to the door body to add water, the first electrical connector 360 and the second electrical connector are disconnected, which avoids the humidifying module 300 being electrified when adding water, and improves the safety of the humidifying module 300.

[0315] The first electrical connector 360 is located at the top of the humidifying module 300, and the first electrical connector 360 can be disconnected from the second electrical connector by rotating the humidifying module 300 at the bottom by a small angle, which facilitates to ensure the timeliness and reliability of the power-off of the humidifying module 300.

[0316] During the door opening and closing process, the door body 200 drives the humidifying module 300 to rotate, which causes the liquid in the liquid storage cavity 301 of the humidifying module 300 to shake, affects the stability of the humidifying module 300, and even causes the humidifying module 300 to be separated from the fixation and rotate relative to the door body, which affects the safety of the humidifying module 300.

[0317] Therefore, in some embodiments of the present application, the humidifying module 300 is provided with a first electrical connector 360, which is located at the top of the humidifying module 300. The first electrical connector 360 is arranged at the top of the electrical cavity 305, so as to facilitate electrical connection between the first electrical connector 360 and the electrical components in the electrical cavity 305. For example, the first electrical connector 360 can be electrically connected to the driving board of the atomizer 320 through a wire. Figure 19The liquid storage cavity 301 is provided with at least one rib plate 340.

[0318] The embodiment of the present application divides the liquid storage cavity 301 with a large space into at least two sub-cavities by arranging the rib plate 340 in the liquid storage cavity 301. The sub-cavities have a smaller space, which can reduce the range of free flow of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity 301 and reduce the shaking amplitude of the liquid. The rib plate 340 blocks the flow of the liquid and also reduces the shaking amplitude of the liquid, thereby improving the stability of the humidifying module 300.

[0319] In addition, the adjacent two sub-cavities are communicated, which does not affect the communication of the liquid and ensures the consistency of the water level between the multiple sub-cavities.

[0320] In some possible implementations of the present application, the rib plate 340 extends along a first direction; the first direction forms an included angle with the width direction of the door body (corresponding to the X-axis direction in Figure 19 ).

[0321] In Figure 19 and Figure 20 , the rib plate 340 extends along the height direction of the door body (corresponding to the Z-axis direction in Figure 19 ), that is, the first direction is parallel to the height direction of the door body, and the first direction forms a right angle with the width direction of the door body.

[0322] However, this is not a limitation on the extension direction of the rib plate 340. For example, the rib plate 340 can extend obliquely relative to the height direction of the door body.

[0323] In some embodiments of the present application, the rib plate 340 is arranged in a strip shape, which can not only increase the area for blocking the flow of the liquid, but also increase the separation area between the adjacent two sub-cavities, thereby increasing the flow resistance of the liquid and reducing the shaking degree of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity 301 during the opening and closing of the door.

[0324] Continuing to refer to Figure 20 , in some embodiments, the rib plate 340 is provided in a plurality, and the plurality of rib plates 340 are arranged at intervals along a second direction; wherein the second direction forms an included angle with the first direction.

[0325] In Figure 20 , the plurality of rib plates 340 are arranged at intervals along the width direction of the door body 200, that is, the second direction is parallel to the width direction of the door body 200, and the included angle between the second direction and the first direction is a right angle.

[0326] This is not a limitation on the arrangement direction of the rib plate 340. For example, the second direction forms an included angle with the width direction of the door body 200.

[0327] The number of the rib plates 340 is not limited in the embodiments of the present application, and the rib plates 340 can be provided with six, eight or the like, which can be determined according to the space of the liquid storage cavity 301, the processing difficulty and the like.

[0328] The extension lengths of the plurality of rib plates 340 can be the same or different. The extension lengths of the rib plates 340 can be set according to the actual space and structure in the liquid storage cavity 301.

[0329] In some embodiments of the present application, by providing the plurality of rib plates 340, the space between the single sub-cavities is reduced, the flow resistance of the liquid is increased, and the shaking degree of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity 301 during the opening and closing of the door is reduced.

[0330] In some embodiments of the present application, at least one rib plate 340 has a spacing with the bottom wall of the liquid storage cavity 301 along the height direction of the door body.

[0331] The bottom wall of the liquid storage cavity 301 can be the first partition plate 3171, and the at least one rib plate 340 has a spacing with the first partition plate 3171.

[0332] In some embodiments of the present application, by providing the spacing between the rib plate 340 and the bottom wall of the liquid storage cavity 301, the adjacent two sub-cavities are communicated, and there is no need to additionally provide a communication structure between the adjacent two sub-cavities, which is beneficial to simplify the structure in the liquid storage cavity 301.

[0333] Moreover, in the embodiments of the present application, by providing the spacing between the rib plate 340 and the bottom wall of the liquid storage cavity 301, when the liquid in the liquid storage cavity 301 is less, the shaking in the liquid storage cavity 301 is small, and the rib plate 340 is not needed to reduce the shaking; moreover, it can be ensured that all the atomizers on the bottom wall of the liquid storage cavity 301 can contact with the liquid for atomization, and the situation that some atomizers are in water and some atomizers are not in water due to uneven distribution of the liquid can be avoided.

[0334] When a plurality of rib plates 340 are provided, the plurality of rib plates 340 have a spacing with the bottom wall of the liquid storage cavity 301 along the height direction of the door body, so that the adjacent two sub-cavities are communicated, the liquid level height between the sub-cavities is consistent, and the influence of the inconsistent liquid level on the atomization of the atomizer 320 is avoided.

[0335] In some possible implementations, the rib plate 340 can extend to the bottom wall of the liquid storage cavity 301, and a communication opening is provided at the end of the rib plate 340 connected with the bottom wall of the liquid storage cavity 301, so that the adjacent two sub-cavities are communicated.

[0336] In some embodiments of the present application, at least one rib plate 340 has a spacing with the top wall of the liquid storage cavity 301 along the height direction of the door body.

[0337] The top wall of the liquid storage cavity 301 can be a top plate of the front shell part 317. The at least one rib plate 340 is spaced apart from the top plate of the front shell part 317.

[0338] The embodiment of the present application sets a space between the rib plate 340 and the top wall of the liquid storage cavity 301, so that the top of the adjacent two sub-cavities is communicated, the gas at the top of the adjacent two sub-cavities is communicated, the air pressure between the adjacent two sub-cavities is balanced, and the liquid levels between the adjacent two sub-cavities are consistent.

[0339] In some possible implementation manners, the at least one rib plate 340 can extend to the top wall of the liquid storage cavity 301, and the reliability and stability of the connection between the rib plate 340 and the front shell part 317 can be improved.

[0340] Continuing to refer to Figure 19 and Figure 20 In some embodiments, the liquid storage cavity 301 includes two first cavity walls that are opposite along the door body thickness direction and have a space.

[0341] One of the two first cavity walls is connected to one side of the rib plate 340 along the two sides of the door body thickness direction, and the other of the two first cavity walls abuts against the other side of the rib plate 340 along the two sides of the door body thickness direction.

[0342] In the embodiment of the present application, the rib plate 340 is fixed to one of the first cavity walls, so that the rib plate 340 is fixed in the liquid storage cavity 301. The rib plate 340 abuts against the other first cavity wall, so that the liquid storage cavity 301 is divided into at least two sub-cavities. The rib plate 340 only needs to be fixed to one of the first cavity walls, and does not need to be connected to the other first cavity wall, so that the structure in the liquid storage cavity 301 can be simplified.

[0343] In some possible implementation manners of the present application, the front side plate of the front shell part 317 and the back cover plate 318 are respectively configured to form the two first cavity walls of the liquid storage cavity 301.

[0344] The one side of the at least one rib plate 340 along the two sides of the door body thickness direction is connected to the back cover plate 318, and the other side is abutted against the front side plate of the front shell part 317, so that the two sides of the rib plate 340 respectively form two sub-cavities.

[0345] Alternatively, the one side of the at least one rib plate 340 along the two sides of the door body 200 thickness direction is connected to the front side plate of the front shell part 317, and the other side is abutted against the back cover plate 318, so that the two sides of the rib plate 340 respectively form two sub-cavities.

[0346] In some embodiments, all the rib plates 340 are connected to one of the first cavity walls, so that the processing and assembly are facilitated.

[0347] In some embodiments, the partial rib 340 is connected to one of the first cavity walls, and another partial rib 340 is connected to the other first cavity wall. In this way, more ribs 340 can be provided, and the structural strength of the back cover plate 318 and the front shell portion 317 can be improved respectively.

[0348] As shown in Figure 19 , the top of the liquid storage cavity 301 is provided with a water inlet 304 for adding water into the liquid storage cavity 301.

[0349] The water inlet 304 is provided with a water inlet plug 3041 to seal the water inlet 304 and prevent liquid from overflowing out of the water inlet 304.

[0350] The water inlet plug 3041 is provided with a gas permeable hole to balance the pressure difference between the liquid storage cavity 301 and the outside atmosphere, prevent water in the liquid storage cavity 301 from overflowing out of the water inlet 304 during the opening and closing of the door, and avoid the formation of a low-pressure environment in the liquid storage cavity 301 after the liquid is consumed by the atomizer 320, which is not conducive to the flow of liquid.

[0351] In some embodiments of the present application, the liquid storage cavity 301 is provided with a water inlet structure 350, and the water inlet structure 350 is configured to form a water inlet channel 351; the water inlet end of the water inlet channel 351 is opposite the water inlet 304, and the water outlet end of the water inlet channel 351 communicates with the liquid storage cavity 301.

[0352] In this way, by providing the water inlet structure 350 in the liquid storage cavity 301, and configuring the water inlet structure 350 to form the water inlet channel 351, water can be added into the liquid storage cavity 301, and the water inlet channel 351 is provided between the liquid storage cavity 301 and the water inlet 304 to increase the resistance of liquid overflowing out of the water inlet 304 and reduce the possibility of liquid overflowing out of the liquid storage cavity 301 during the opening and closing of the door. Moreover, the provision of the water inlet structure 350 can also reduce the liquid sloshing.

[0353] In some embodiments, the water inlet channel 351 can be curved to increase the resistance of liquid overflowing out of the water inlet 304 through the water inlet channel 351 and the water inlet 304, and improve the anti-overflow performance of the water inlet 304.

[0354] In some other embodiments, the water inlet channel 351 can be a straight channel, and a blocking structure is provided in the straight channel to increase the resistance of liquid overflowing out of the water inlet 304 through the water inlet channel 351 and the water inlet 304.

[0355] Continuing to refer to Figure 20 , in some embodiments, the water inlet structure 350 includes a rib 352 connected to the side wall of the water inlet channel 351 and located in the water inlet channel 351.

[0356] The one end of the rib 352 away from the side wall of the water inlet channel 351 is inclined away from the water inlet 304; and Figure 20 In some embodiments of the present application, the one end of the rib 352 away from the side wall of the water inlet channel 351 is inclined downward.

[0357] The projection of the rib 352 on the first plane is located at least partially in the water inlet 304; wherein the first plane is perpendicular to the depth direction of the water inlet 304. When the door body is closed, the depth direction of the water inlet 304 is parallel to the height direction of the door body.

[0358] When the water inlet 304 is arranged on the top wall of the water storage cavity, the first plane can be a horizontal plane. The horizontal plane is determined by the width direction and the thickness direction of the door body 200.

[0359] In some embodiments of the present application, the water inlet structure 350 is arranged with the rib 352 on the side wall of the water inlet channel 351, so that at least part of the rib 352 is opposite to the water inlet 304, thereby increasing the resistance of water overflow and preventing the liquid in the liquid storage cavity 301 from overflowing. Since the one end of the rib 352 away from the side wall of the water inlet channel 351 is inclined downward, the resistance to water injection is small and has little effect on water injection.

[0360] As shown in Figure 20 In some embodiments of the present application, the rib 352 is arranged in multiple, and the multiple ribs 352 are arranged along the extension direction of the water inlet channel 351.

[0361] When the water inlet channel 351 extends along the height direction of the door body 200, the multiple ribs 352 are arranged along the height direction of the door body 200.

[0362] The embodiments of the present application arrange multiple ribs 352 to increase the resistance of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity 301 to overflow outwards through the water inlet 304, thereby improving the problem of liquid overflow when the humidifying module 300 is opened or closed.

[0363] In some embodiments of the present application, the water inlet structure 350 further comprises: two channel side plates 353; and the two channel side plates 353 are arranged along the width direction of the door body.

[0364] The two cavity walls of the liquid storage cavity 301 along the thickness direction of the door body are first cavity walls, and the two channel side plates 353 and the two first cavity walls jointly enclose the water inlet channel 351.

[0365] The two channel side plates 353 jointly enclose the water inlet channel 351 with the rear cover plate 318 and the front side plate of the front shell part 317.

[0366] The two channel side plates 353 can be connected with the rear cover plate 318, and the two channel side plates 353 abut against the front side plate; or the two channel side plates 353 can be connected with the front side plate, and the two channel side plates 353 abut against the rear cover plate 318. In this way, the two channel side plates 353 are connected with one of the rear cover plate 318 and the front side plate, which facilitates simplifying the connection structure of the channel side plate 353.

[0367] The ribs 352 are connected with the channel side plates 353, and the ribs 352 are located on the side of the two channel side plates 353 facing each other.

[0368] The embodiments of the present application set two channel side plates 353 in the liquid storage cavity 301, which respectively form the water inlet channel 351 together with the two cavity walls of the liquid storage cavity 301 along the thickness direction of the door body, which facilitates simplifying the structure in the liquid storage cavity 301. Moreover, the two channel side plates 353 can also reduce the liquid shaking.

[0369] In some embodiments of the present application, all the ribs 352 are arranged on the side of the two channel side plates 353 facing each other, and the ribs 352 on the two channel side plates 353 have intervals along the width direction of the door body 200.

[0370] In the embodiments of the present application, the ribs 352 are arranged on the two channel side plates 353, which further increases the resistance of the liquid overflowing through the water inlet 304, and reduces the possibility of water overflowing from the water inlet 304. Moreover, the ribs 352 on the two channel side plates 353 have intervals, which facilitates reducing the water injection resistance, and ensuring the smoothness and water injection rate.

[0371] In the embodiments of the present application, the humidifying module 300 rotates relative to the door body 200 to add water. In some embodiments, a damping shaft can be arranged between the humidifying module 300 and the door body 200, so that the humidifying module 300 and the door body 200 can rotate, and the humidifying module 300 can be rotated to a preset angle; and the humidifying module 300 is fixed relative to the door body 200 after adding water.

[0372] In other embodiments, the humidifying module 300 and the door body 200 are fixed by a lock catch structure, or are unlocked, so that the humidifying module 300 can rotate relative to the door body 200.

[0373] As shown in FIGS. Figure 17 and Figure 21 The humidifying module 300 can include a humidifying body 31 configured to humidify the refrigeration compartment, and a water inlet arranged on the humidifying body 31. The humidifying body 31 is rotatably installed on the door body. The humidifying body 31 can include a shell assembly and structures such as an atomizer inside the shell assembly.

[0374] The humidifying module 300 can further include a locking structure 32 movably connected with the humidifying body 31.

[0375] The locking structure 32 has a locking position and an unlocking position, and is configured to move relative to the humidifying body 31 between the locking position and the unlocking position.

[0376] The locking position is a position where the locking structure 32 is fixedly connected with a matching structure 250 provided on the door body 200; when the locking structure 32 is in the locking position, the humidifying module 300 is fixed relative to the door body 200.

[0377] The unlocking position is a position where the locking structure 32 is disengaged from the matching structure 250; when the locking structure 32 is in the unlocking position, the humidifying module 300 can rotate relative to the door body 200.

[0378] The locking structure 32 can move relative to the humidifying body 31 along the thickness direction of the door body 200 to move the locking structure 32 between the locking position and the unlocking position. Alternatively, the locking structure 32 can slide relative to the humidifying body 31 in a certain direction to move the locking structure 32 between the locking position and the unlocking position. Alternatively, the locking structure 32 can rotate relative to the humidifying body 31 to move the locking structure 32 between the locking position and the unlocking position. For example, the locking structure 32 can rotate by 90° between the locking position and the unlocking position, which is convenient to operate.

[0379] In the embodiments of the present application, the locking structure 32 is provided on the humidifying body 31, the matching structure 250 is provided on the door body 200, and the humidifying body 31 is fixed relative to the door body 200 by cooperation of the locking structure 32 and the matching structure 250, so that the humidifying module 300 cannot rotate relative to the door body 200, which is beneficial to ensure the stability of the humidifying module 300 relative to the door body 200. When the locking structure 32 moves to the unlocking position, the locking structure 32 is disengaged from the matching structure 250, so that the humidifying body 31 can rotate relative to the door body 200, and then the humidifying body 31 can rotate to a water filling position relative to the door body 200 to fill water into the liquid storage cavity 301 in the humidifying body 31.

[0380] Referring to Figure 19 In some embodiments of the present application, the humidifying body 31 is configured to form a receiving portion 370 for mounting the locking structure 32.

[0381] In some embodiments, the liquid storage cavity 301 is provided with a third partition plate 3173, and the third partition plate 3173 and the cavity wall of the liquid storage cavity 301 together form the receiving portion 370.

[0382] The third partition plate 3173 can be connected with the front side plate of the front shell part 317, and the third partition plate 3173 abuts against the rear cover plate 318. Thus, the third partition plate 3173, the rear cover plate 318 and the front side plate jointly enclose the accommodating part 370.

[0383] The accommodating part 370 has an opening, so that at least part of the lock catch structure 32 is exposed to the outer surface of the humidifying module 300 through the opening, facilitating user operation.

[0384] In some embodiments, the lock catch structure 32 comprises an operating member 321, part of which is mounted in the accommodating part 370, and the other part is exposed to the side of the humidifying body 31 away from the door body 200, facilitating user operation.

[0385] The operating member 321 is configured to move relative to the humidifying body 31. In some embodiments of the present application, the operating member 321 rotates relative to the humidifying body 31.

[0386] The lock catch structure 32 can further comprise a locking member 322, which is located in the accommodating part 370 and fixedly connected with the operating member 321. The operating member 321 drives the locking member 322 to move between the locked position and the unlocked position.

[0387] When the locking member 322 is in the locked position, it is connected with the cooperating structure 250; when the locking member 322 is in the unlocked position, it is separated from the cooperating structure 250.

[0388] In some possible implementations of the present application, the operating member 321 can comprise a rotating operating part 3211, which is located outside the accommodating part 370.

[0389] The operating member 321 can comprise a column part 3212, which is connected with the rotating operating part 3211 and located in the accommodating part 370. The locking member 322 is connected with the end of the column part 3212 away from the rotating operating part 3211.

[0390] The operating member 321 can comprise a clamping protrusion 3213, which is arranged on the side surface of the column part 3212. Exemplarily, two clamping protrusions 3213 can be arranged, which are arranged at intervals around the circumference of the column part 3212.

[0391] In some embodiments, the accommodating portion 370 is provided with a ring-shaped limiting portion 371, one end of the ring-shaped limiting portion 371 away from the door body 200 is recessed relative to the outer surface of the humidifying main body 31 and abuts against the rotating operation portion 3211. The column portion 3212 cooperates with the center hole of the ring-shaped limiting portion 371. The other end of the ring-shaped limiting portion 371 is configured to form an arc-shaped clamping groove 372, so that the clamping protrusion 3213 cooperates with the clamping groove 372, and thus the operation member 321 is limited on the humidifying main body 31 in the thickness direction of the door body. The operation member 321 is configured to rotate relative to the accommodating portion 370, and the clamping protrusion 3213 rotates along the clamping groove 372.

[0392] The limiting table 373 is arranged at both ends of the clamping groove 372, respectively, to limit the rotating position of the operation member 321, so that the operation member 321 rotates between the locked position and the unlocked position.

[0393] The convex 374 is arranged in the clamping groove 372, and the convex 374 is close to the limiting table 373 of the locked position. In the process of rotating the clamping protrusion 3213 along the clamping groove 372 to the locked position, the clamping protrusion 3213 collides with the convex 374, and a “click” touch is generated to prompt the user that the humidifying module is locked in place, and the reliability of the locking structure 32 is improved.

[0394] In the embodiments of the present application, the locking structure 32 is arranged by the operation member 321, so that part of the operation member 321 is exposed on the side of the humidifying main body 31 away from the door body 200, which is convenient for the user to operate. The locking structure 32 is arranged by the locking member 322, which is fixedly connected with the operation member 321 and moves between the locked position and the unlocked position under the driving of the operation member 321, so as to realize the locking and unlocking of the humidifying module 300.

[0395] The locking structure 32 of the mechanical structure is arranged in the embodiments of the present application to realize the locking and unlocking of the humidifying module 300, which is simple in structure and convenient to operate. Compared with the electric locking and unlocking, the locking structure 32 of the embodiments of the present application has a lower cost.

[0396] In combination Figure 19 The top surface of the humidifying main body 31 is provided with a locking opening 3701, and the locking opening 3701 communicates with the accommodating portion 370.

[0397] Exemplarily, the top plate of the front shell portion 317 is provided with the locking opening 3701.

[0398] In combination Figure 21 The door body 200 is configured to form a top side wall 224 opposite to the top surface of the humidifying main body 31, and a mounting groove is formed on the door liner 220 to mount the humidifying main body 31. The top side wall 224 can be the top end groove wall of the mounting groove.

[0399] The top side wall 224 is configured to form a matching groove 2241 which is open towards the top surface of the humidifying body 31; wherein the matching groove 2241 forms a matching structure 250.

[0400] In the locked position, the locking member 322 extends into the matching groove 2241 through the locking opening 3701.

[0401] In the unlocked position, the locking member 322 returns to the accommodating portion 370 through the locking opening 3701.

[0402] In combination Figure 19 and Figure 20 In some embodiments of the present application, the third partition plate 3173 includes an arc-shaped plate 3174, a first connecting plate 3175 and a second connecting plate 3176. The arc-shaped plate 3174 is arranged around the outer side of the annular limiting portion. One end of each of the first connecting plate 3175 and the second connecting plate 3176 is connected to two ends of the arc-shaped plate 3174; the other end of each of the first connecting plate 3175 and the second connecting plate 3176 is connected to the top wall of the front shell portion 317 and is located on the side of the locking opening 3701, respectively.

[0403] In this way, the third partition plate 3173 forms the accommodating portion 370 by the arc-shaped plate 3174, the first connecting plate 3175 and the second connecting plate 3176, which not only can install the lock catch structure 32, but also can provide space for the rotation of the lock catch structure 32.

[0404] In some embodiments of the present application, by setting the matching groove 2241 on the door body, the locking member 322 extends into the matching groove 2241 through the locking opening 3701 to limit the position of the humidifying body 31 along the thickness direction of the door body, so as to fix the humidifying body 31 on the door body; the locking member 322 returns to the accommodating portion 370 through the locking opening 3701, and the limiting between the humidifying body 31 and the door body is released, so that the humidifying body 31 can rotate relative to the door body.

[0405] In some other embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 22 to Figure 24 The humidifying body 31 is provided with a matching opening 3702 which is arranged towards the back side 314 of the door body 200 and is in communication with the accommodating portion 370.

[0406] The matching opening 3702 can be an opening arranged on the back cover plate 318.

[0407] In combination Figure 23 and Figure 24 The matching structure 250 includes a limiting member 251 which is fixed on the inner container 220 of the door body. The limiting member 251 is configured to cooperate with the locking member 322 through the matching opening 3702.

[0408] The limiting member 251 can be fixed on the door liner 220. The door liner 220 is provided with a mounting opening, and part of the limiting member 251 is mounted on the side of the door liner 220 facing the door shell, and part of the limiting member 251 extends into the side of the door liner 220 facing the humidifying main body 31 through the mounting opening.

[0409] One of the limiting member 251 and the locking member 322 is provided with a limiting protrusion 2512, and the other is provided with a limiting groove 3214.

[0410] In the locked position, the limiting protrusion 2512 is clamped into the limiting groove 3214.

[0411] In the unlocked position, the limiting protrusion 2512 is out of the limiting groove 3214.

[0412] Exemplarily, the column part 3212 of the operating member 321 is provided with a slot 3215, the limiting groove 3214 is provided on the column part 3212 and located in the slot 3215, and one end of the limiting groove 3214 communicates with the slot 3215. The clamping protrusion 3213 is arranged on the outer surface of the column part 3212. The limiting groove 3214 can be an arc-shaped groove extending circumferentially along the column part 3212. The column part 3212 of the operating member 321 forms the locking member 322.

[0413] The limiting member 251 includes a mounting plate 2513, a connecting column 2511, and a limiting protrusion 2512. The mounting plate 2513 is fixed on the door liner 220, and the mounting plate 2513 is located on the side of the door liner 220 facing the door shell. The connecting column 2511 is fixedly connected with the mounting plate 2513, and the limiting protrusion 2512 is arranged on the side of the connecting column 2511. Both the connecting column 2511 and the limiting protrusion 2512 are located on the side of the door liner 220 facing the humidifying main body 31. The connecting column 2511 cooperates with the slot 3215, and the limiting protrusion 2512 cooperates with the limiting groove 3214.

[0414] When the operating member 321 is rotated to the position where the limiting groove 3214 cooperates with the limiting protrusion 2512, the lock catch structure 32 is in the locked position, and the humidifying main body 31 is fixed relative to the door body 200 through the cooperation of the limiting groove 3214 and the limiting protrusion 2512. When the operating member 321 is rotated to the position where the limiting protrusion 2512 is out of the opening of the limiting groove 3214, the lock catch structure 32 is in the unlocked position, and the limiting between the limiting groove 3214 and the limiting protrusion 2512 is released, so that the humidifying main body 31 can be rotated relative to the door body 200.

[0415] In some embodiments, the limiting protrusion 2512 can be provided with two limiting protrusions 2512 arranged at intervals along the circumference of the connecting column 2511; correspondingly, the limiting groove 3214 is provided with two limiting grooves 3214, which can provide stability for the cooperation between the limiting member 251 and the locking member 322.

[0416] In the embodiments of the present application, the matching structure 250 of the door body 200 and the lock catch structure 32 are arranged along the thickness direction of the door body 200, and are suitable for a refrigerator with a thin door body 200.

[0417] Continuing to refer to Figure 24 In some embodiments, the lock catch structure can be arranged below the water filling opening 304, so that the arrangement of the third partition plate 3173 can increase the resistance of liquid in the liquid storage cavity 301 overflowing from the water filling opening 304. The water inlet structure 350 is located between the third partition plate 3173 and the water filling opening 304.

[0418] In yet some embodiments, referring to Figure 25 to Figure 27 The door body can further be provided with a lock detection switch 270 and a trigger piece 260.

[0419] When the locking piece 322 is connected with the matching structure 250, the locking piece 322 abuts against the trigger piece 260, and deforms the trigger piece 260 to trigger the lock detection switch 270 to send a first signal;

[0420] When the door body closes the refrigeration compartment and the locking piece 322 is not connected with the matching structure 250, the lock detection switch 270 is configured to send a second signal;

[0421] The first signal is a signal indicating that the locking piece 322 is connected with the matching structure 250; and the second signal is a signal indicating that the locking piece 322 is not connected with the matching structure 250.

[0422] In some embodiments of the present application, the lock detection switch 270 and the trigger piece 260 are arranged on the door body to detect the locking state of the lock catch structure 32, so as to avoid that when the door body is closed, the locking piece 322 is not matched with the matching structure 250, and the humidifying main body 31 is rotatable relative to the door body, which affects the stability of the humidifying main body 31.

[0423] In some embodiments, the limiting piece 251 of the matching structure 250 is provided with an abutting opening 2514. Part of the trigger piece 260 extends into the accommodating portion 370 through the abutting opening 2514.

[0424] Part of the trigger piece 260 is located on the side of the door liner facing the door shell, and contacts the sensing portion 271 of the lock detection switch 270.

[0425] When the locking piece 322 is matched with the limiting piece 251, the locking piece 322 abuts against the part of the trigger piece 260 extending into the accommodating portion 370, so that the trigger piece 260 triggers the lock detection switch 270 to send the first signal through the sensing portion 271 of the lock detection switch 270.

[0426] When the door body is closed and the locking member 322 is not matched with the limiting member 251, the trigger member 260 does not trigger the sensing part 271 of the locking detection switch 270, so that the locking detection switch 270 sends a second signal, indicating that the humidifying main body 31 is not locked with the door body 200.

[0427] The specific structure of the locking detection switch 270 is not limited in the embodiments of the present application, and the locking detection switch 270 can be a micro switch or the like. The sensing part of the locking detection switch 270 can be an elastic member.

[0428] In combination Figure 26 and Figure 27 In some embodiments, the limiting member 251 is provided with a mounting hole 2515. The mounting hole 2515 can be arranged on the mounting plate 2513 and the connecting column 2511.

[0429] In some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 25 and Figure 27 The trigger member 260 includes a matching part 261 and an abutting part 262. The matching part 261 is installed in the mounting hole 2515. The abutting part 262 is connected to the side surface of the matching part 261, and part of the abutting part 262 extends into the accommodating part 370 through the abutting opening 2514.

[0430] The trigger member 260 of the embodiments of the present application is matched with the mounting hole 2515 through the matching part 261, so that the trigger member 260 is stably matched with the limiting member 251, and the movement of the trigger member 260 can be guided.

[0431] The matching part 261 can be provided with a matching hole 2611, so that the sensing part 271 of the locking detection switch 270 extends into the matching hole 2611, ensuring the stability of the matching between the trigger member 260 and the sensing part 271 of the locking detection switch 270.

[0432] In some implementations, when the operating member 321 drives the locking member 322 to rotate to the locking position, the locking member 322 is matched with the limiting member 251 at the same time, and the locking member 322 abuts against the trigger member 260, pushing the trigger member 260 to move relative to the limiting member 251 towards the locking detection switch 270, so that the trigger member 260 abuts against the sensing part 271 of the locking detection switch 270, thereby triggering the locking detection switch 270 to send a first signal.

[0433] When the door body is closed, but the locking buckle structure 32 does not lock the humidifying main body 31, because there is a gap between the locking member 322 and the trigger member 260, the trigger member 260 does not trigger the locking detection switch 270, so that the locking detection switch 270 sends a second signal.

[0434] In the embodiments of the present application, by arranging the locking detection switch 270 and the trigger piece 260 on the door body 200, when the locking piece 322 triggers the locking detection switch 270 to send a first signal through the trigger piece 260 when the locking buckle structure 32 locks the humidification main body 31 and the door body 200, and when the door body 200 is closed and the locking buckle structure 32 does not lock the humidification main body 31 and the door body 200, the locking detection switch 270 sends a second signal to prompt the user that the humidification module 300 is not locked, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the humidification module.

[0435] During the humidification process of the humidification module 300, the liquid in the liquid storage cavity 301 is continuously consumed by the atomizer 320. If the liquid storage cavity 301 cannot be humidified in time, the humidification will be affected, and the atomizer 320 will not only be noisy but also be easily damaged in the case of water shortage.

[0436] In some embodiments, a transparent plate 3101 is arranged on the cavity wall of the liquid storage cavity 301 facing the refrigeration compartment 101, and the transparent plate 3101 extends along the height direction of the liquid storage cavity 301. In this way, the user can view the liquid level in the liquid storage cavity 301 through the transparent plate 3101, so as to facilitate the user to obtain the liquid level in the liquid storage cavity 301 in time.

[0437] Exemplarily, with reference to Figure 24 , the front side plate of the front shell part 317 is provided with an opening, and the transparent plate 3101 is sealingly connected with the front shell part 317 and covers the opening.

[0438] In some embodiments of the present application, in combination Figure 24 , the humidification module 300 is further configured to form a detection cavity 306, and the detection cavity 306 is arranged parallel to the liquid storage cavity 301 along the width direction of the door body 200; the bottom end of the detection cavity 306 communicates with the liquid storage cavity 301. In this way, the liquid level in the detection cavity 306 is the same as that in the liquid storage cavity 301, that is, the liquid level in the liquid storage cavity 301 can be determined by monitoring the liquid level in the detection cavity 306.

[0439] In some embodiments, a fourth partition plate 3177 is arranged in the liquid storage cavity 301, and the fourth partition plate 3177 extends along the height direction of the humidification module 300 to separate the liquid storage cavity 301 and the detection cavity 306. The bottom end of the fourth partition plate 3177 is spaced apart from the bottom wall of the liquid storage cavity 301 to enable the communication between the detection cavity 306 and the liquid storage cavity 301.

[0440] In some embodiments, the fourth partition plate 3177 is connected with the front shell part 317 of the humidification module 300, and the fourth partition plate 3177 is spaced apart from the rear cover plate 318 to enable the communication between the detection cavity 306 and the liquid storage cavity 301.

[0441] With reference to Figure 28 to Figure 30The humidifying module 300 is provided with a water shortage detection mechanism 380 configured to send a water shortage signal when the liquid level in the liquid storage cavity 301 is lower than a set liquid level. The water shortage detection mechanism 380 includes, but is not limited to, a liquid level monitoring mechanism such as a liquid level gauge.

[0442] In some embodiments, the water shortage detection mechanism 380 includes a buoyant member 381 located in the detection cavity 306 and floating along the detection cavity 306 as the liquid level in the detection cavity 306 changes. In the present embodiment, the buoyant member 381 floats along the height direction as the liquid level in the detection cavity 306 changes.

[0443] For example, the buoyant member 381 can be a foam with a small density and easy to float with the liquid level, which is conducive to improving the detection accuracy. The buoyant member 381 can also be a floating ball or the like.

[0444] In some embodiments, in combination with Figure 20 The bottom of the detection cavity 306 is provided with a support plate 3061 spaced apart from the bottom wall of the liquid storage cavity 301. In this way, when the buoyant member 381 falls to the bottom of the detection cavity 306, the support plate 3061 can support the buoyant member 381. When water is added to the liquid storage cavity 301, the buoyant member 381 is located above the bottom wall of the liquid storage cavity 301, so that the buoyant member 381 can float up under the action of buoyancy.

[0445] The water shortage detection mechanism 380 can also include a water shortage detection switch 382 installed in the electrical cavity 305. The electrical cavity 305 is not in communication with the detection cavity 306, so as to avoid the liquid in the detection cavity 306 from entering the electrical cavity 305 and damaging the electrical components such as the water shortage detection switch 382. In some embodiments, a third partition plate 3173 is arranged between the electrical cavity 305 and the detection cavity 306.

[0446] The buoyant member 381 is configured to trigger the water shortage detection switch 382 to send a water shortage signal when the liquid level in the detection cavity 306 is lower than a set liquid level, so as to prompt the user to add water in time and ensure the normal operation of the humidifying module 300.

[0447] Referring to Figure 29 and Figure 30In some embodiments, the buoyant member 381 can be a non-transparent member, for example, a black buoyant member 381. A detection opening 383 is provided on the fourth partition plate 3177 between the electrical cavity 305 and the detection cavity 306, and the detection opening 383 is located on the side of the buoyant member 381 in the direction of the liquid level floating direction, for example, the detection opening 383 is located on the vertical side of the buoyant member 381. A light-transmitting plate 384 is sealingly installed on the fourth partition plate 3177. The light-transmitting plate 384 can be a transparent glass plate. The water shortage detection switch 382 can be a photoelectric lock detection switch 270 installed in the electrical cavity 305 and opposite to the detection opening. When the liquid level in the detection cavity 306 is lower than the set liquid level, the buoyant member 381 is lowered to be opposite to the detection opening 383, the light emitted by the photoelectric lock detection switch 270 is absorbed by the buoyant member 381, and no feedback light is received, thereby causing the photoelectric lock detection switch 270 to issue a water shortage signal. When the liquid level in the detection cavity 306 is higher than the set liquid level, the buoyant member 381 floats on the liquid level surface, the light emitted by the photoelectric lock detection switch 270 enters the detection cavity 306 and is reflected back to the photoelectric lock detection switch 270, and the photoelectric lock detection switch 270 detects the reflected light.

[0448] With reference to Figure 31 and Figure 32 In some embodiments, the water shortage detection switch 382 can be a micro switch. The micro switch is located at the bottom of the buoyant member 381. The triggering structure 385 of the micro switch extends into the bottom of the detection cavity 306. When the liquid level in the detection cavity 306 is lower than the set liquid level, the buoyant member 381 is affected by gravity to trigger the micro switch to close, so that the micro switch issues a water shortage signal. When the liquid level in the detection cavity 306 is higher than the set liquid level, the buoyant force acting on the buoyant member 381 is greater than the gravity, and the buoyant member 381 moves away from the triggering structure 385.

[0449] During the opening and closing of the door body 200, the liquid level in the liquid storage cavity 301 inevitably shakes, thereby causing the liquid level in the detection cavity 306 to shake. In order to avoid the accuracy of the water shortage detection, the water shortage detection mechanism 380 is configured to detect the liquid level in the liquid storage cavity 301 after a set time after the opening and closing of the door body 200. For example, the water shortage detection mechanism 380 is configured to detect the liquid level in the liquid storage cavity 301 after 5s after the opening and closing of the door body 200.

[0450] In the embodiments of the present application, the water shortage detection mechanism 380 is arranged in the humidifying module 300 to monitor the liquid level state in the liquid storage cavity 301, so as to add water to the liquid storage cavity 301 in time, reduce the possibility of dry burning of the atomizer 320, and improve the safety of the humidifying module 300. Moreover, the detection cavity 306 in communication with the liquid storage cavity 301 is formed in the humidifying module 300, and the water level of the liquid storage cavity 301 is determined by using the buoyant piece 381 in the detection cavity 306. The detection cavity 306 can limit the buoyant piece 381, which is beneficial to improve the stability of the buoyant piece 381, and further improve the accuracy of water shortage detection and reduce the false alarm caused by the liquid shaking in the liquid storage cavity 301.

[0451] In the above description, the functional module is taken as the humidifying module 300 for description. However, this is not restrictive. For example, the functional module can also be a vacuumizing module, which can vacuumize the storage bag. For another example, the functional module can also be a deodorizing module, which can deodorize the refrigeration compartment.

[0452] Through the above description, the functional module of the embodiments of the present application is mounted on the door body, and does not occupy the storage space of the refrigeration compartment.

[0453] The projection of the door shelf along the height direction of the door body covers the functional module, so that the functional module does not protrude from the door shelf along the thickness direction of the door body, and interference between the functional module and the internal components of the refrigeration compartment when the door body closes the refrigeration compartment is avoided.

[0454] The functional module is embedded in the mounting slot of the door body, which can reduce the volume of the functional module protruding from the inner surface of the door body, so that the functional module can be hiddenly mounted on the door body, and the appearance of the inner side of the door body is improved in appearance; and interference with the drawer arranged in the refrigeration compartment is also avoided.

[0455] The functional module is rotatably connected with the door body and is configured to be detachable relative to the door body after being rotated relative to the door body, so that at least part of the functional module can be exposed from the mounting slot after being rotated relative to the door body, and at least part of the functional module is away from the door body, which can expand the detachable operation space of the functional module; the rotation operation of the functional module is time-saving and labor-saving, and the convenience of dismounting and mounting of the functional module is improved.
