Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of refrigerator technology, and in particular to an outdoor refrigerator. Background Technology

[0002] Outdoor refrigerators have a wide range of applications; for example, they can be used both indoors and outdoors. The freezer compartment of an outdoor refrigerator typically includes a foldable storage basket for storing items. However, with traditional outdoor refrigerators, the foldable storage basket occupies a significant amount of space when transported and stored separately, thus affecting the overall convenience of using the outdoor refrigerator. Utility Model Content

[0003] One of the technical problems addressed by this application is how to improve the ease of use of outdoor refrigerators.

[0004] An outdoor refrigerator, comprising:

[0005] The main body has a freezing cavity formed inside it;

[0006] A foldable storage basket, comprising a side frame assembly and a bottom frame, wherein the foldable storage basket is disposed within the freezing chamber, and the bottom frame and the side frame assembly can form an open cavity;

[0007] The side frame assembly includes at least two side frames. When the two side frames are far apart, the opening increases to allow the foldable storage basket to unfold. When the two side frames are close together, the opening decreases to allow the foldable storage basket to fold.

[0008] In one embodiment, the bottom frame is rotatably mounted on the side frame assembly; when folded, the bottom frame is close to the side frame assembly, and when unfolded, the bottom frame and the side frame assembly are far apart.

[0009] In one embodiment, the side frame assembly includes four side frames, which are two first side frames spaced apart along a first direction and two second side frames spaced apart along a second direction. The two ends of the second side frames in the first direction are rotatably connected to the two first side frames about a pivot extending along a third direction. The first direction and the second direction are set at an angle and are both perpendicular to the third direction.

[0010] The bottom frame is rotatably connected to one of the first side frames via a pivot extending about the second direction, and the bottom frame is supported on the second side frame and / or the other first side frame along the third direction.

[0011] The bottom frame can be stacked with the first side frame, the two first side frames can be moved away from or close to each other, and the two second side frames can be moved away from or close to each other.

[0012] In one embodiment, a carrier is further included, which protrudes from the bottom frame and / or the side frame assembly; wherein, when the carrier is disposed on the bottom frame, the carrier abuts against the side frame, and when the carrier is disposed on the side frame, the carrier abuts against the bottom frame.

[0013] In one embodiment, the side frame assembly has a free end disposed away from the bottom frame, and the first side frame and / or the second side frame are recessed toward the open mouth near the free end to form an clearance space.

[0014] In one embodiment, at least one of the following schemes is also included:

[0015] The second side frame is provided with a first rotating hole, and the first side frame rotates through the first rotating hole to cooperate with the second side frame.

[0016] The first side frame has a second rotating hole, and the bottom frame rotates through the second rotating hole to cooperate with the first side frame.

[0017] In one embodiment, each second side frame includes two rotating portions of equal length in the first direction, one end of the two rotating portions being rotatably connected along a rotating axis extending in the third direction, and the other end of the two rotating portions being rotatably connected to different first side frames along the rotating axis extending in the third direction, respectively; wherein, the two rotating portions on the same second side frame can be folded together within the gap between the two first side frames; or the two rotating portions on the same second side frame can be folded together outside the gap between the two first side frames.

[0018] In one embodiment, when the bottom frame is rotated relative to the first side frame to stack on the first side frame, the bottom frame is sandwiched within the side frame assembly.

[0019] In one embodiment, at least one of the following schemes is also included:

[0020] The first side frame, the second side frame, and the bottom frame each include multiple support rods, which form a grid-like structure.

[0021] The distance between the two first side frames is less than or equal to the distance between the two inner wall surfaces of the freezing cavity that are spaced apart along the first direction, wherein the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0022] The distance between the two second side frames is less than or equal to the distance between the two inner wall surfaces of the freezing cavity that are spaced apart along the second direction, wherein the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0023] An anti-slip structure is provided on the inner wall surface of the bottom frame / the freezing chamber.

[0024] In one embodiment, the main body further includes a suspension member that protrudes from the inner wall of the freezing cavity and is used to suspend the folded storage basket.

[0025] One technical advantage of one embodiment of this application is that, given that the opening is reduced when the two side frames are close to each other, the foldable storage basket can be folded, thus allowing it to be in a fully folded state. During the individual transportation, packaging, and storage of the foldable storage basket, it can be kept in a fully folded state, significantly reducing the overall volume of the foldable storage basket. This improves the ease of use of the foldable storage basket and the entire outdoor refrigerator during transportation, packaging, and storage, and also reduces the costs associated with transporting, packaging, and storing the foldable storage basket.

[0045] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1An outdoor refrigerator 10 provided in one embodiment of this application is shown. This outdoor refrigerator 10 can be used both indoors and outdoors. The outdoor refrigerator 10 includes a main body 11 and a foldable storage basket 12. A freezing chamber 101 is formed inside the main body 11, and the foldable storage basket 12 is fixed inside the freezing chamber 101. The foldable storage basket 12 has an opening 130, into which items can be stored. When items need to be removed, the entire foldable storage basket 12 can be removed from the freezing chamber 101, allowing the items to be taken out from outside the main body 11 through the opening 130 of the foldable storage basket 12. This eliminates interference from the main body 11, ensuring smooth removal of items and improving the ease of use of the outdoor refrigerator 10.

[0046] See Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the foldable storage basket 12 includes a side frame assembly 100 and a bottom frame 200. The bottom frame 200 is rotatably disposed at one end of the side frame assembly 100, and the bottom frame 200 and the side frame assembly 100 form an opening 130. When the bottom frame is stacked on the side frame assembly 100, the side frame assembly 100 can be folded. During the folding process of the side frame assembly 100, as the opening 130 gradually decreases until it disappears completely, the side frame assembly 100 and the entire foldable storage basket 12 are in a fully folded state.

[0047] For ease of description, the three directions in space are denoted as the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction. The first and second directions are set at an angle, and the third direction is perpendicular to both the first and second directions. For example, when the first and second directions are perpendicular to each other, the first, second, and third directions can be understood as extensions of the three coordinate axes in a Cartesian coordinate system. In this case, the first direction can be the X-axis, the second direction can be the Y-axis, and the third direction can be the Z-axis.

[0048] See Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5In some embodiments, the side frame assembly 100 includes at least two side frames. When the two side frames are far apart, the opening 130 increases, thus forming a storage space. When the two side frames are close together, the opening 130 decreases to allow the foldable storage basket 12 to fold. For example, the side frame assembly 100 includes a first side frame 110 and a second side frame 120. There can be two first side frames 110, spaced apart along a first direction; there can also be two second side frames 120, spaced apart along a second direction. Therefore, the side frame assembly 100 includes four side frames. The two ends of the second side frame 120 in the first direction are rotatably connected to the two first side frames 110 about a pivot extending along a third direction. Specifically, one second side frame 120 is rotatably connected to one end of each of the two first side frames 110 in the second direction, and the other second side frame 120 is rotatably connected to the other end of each of the two first side frames 110 in the second direction.

[0049] See Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The bottom frame 200 is located at one end of the side frame assembly 100 in the third direction, and the bottom frame 200 and the side frame assembly 100 form an open cavity 130. With the first and second directions perpendicular to each other, the entire foldable storage basket 12 is approximately a cuboid structure. The bottom frame 200 is rotatably connected to one of the first side frames 110 about a pivot extending in the second direction, and the bottom frame 200 is supported on the second side frame 120 and / or the other first side frame 110 in the third direction. Through the supporting action of the second side frame 120 and / or the first side frame 110, the bottom frame 200 can form an open cavity 130 with the side frame assembly 100, and the bottom frame 200 can also hold items within the open cavity 130. In other embodiments, the foldable storage basket 12 can also be a regular triangular prism structure or other regular polygonal prism structures, as long as the foldable storage basket 12 can be folded.

[0050] See Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7During the storage, packaging, and transportation of the foldable storage basket 12, the bottom frame 200 can first be rotated around a pivot extending in the second direction until it overlaps with one of the first side frames 110. Then, the first side frame 110 with the bottom frame 200 stacked on it is fixed in place, and the two second side frames 120 are simultaneously rotated clockwise relative to the first side frame 110 with the bottom frame 200 stacked on it, until one of the second side frames 120 overlaps with the first side frame 110 with the bottom frame 200 stacked on it, and the other second side frame 120 and the first side frame 110 with the bottom frame 200 stacked on it extend in the same direction and form a non-overlapping relationship. It can be understood that the plane where the other second side frame 120 is located is coplanar with the plane where the first side frame 110 with the bottom frame 200 stacked on it. At this time, the other first side frame 110 will be stacked on the second side frame 120 which is coplanar with the first side frame 110 with the bottom frame 200 stacked on it. This can be understood as the foldable storage basket 12 being in a fully folded state. Obviously, when the foldable storage basket 12 is used to hold items, it is in a fully unfolded state. It can be understood that when the first side frame 110 and the second side frame 120 extend in the same direction, the first side frame 110 and the second side frame 120 can overlap each other, in which case the planes containing the first side frame 110 and the second side frame 120 overlap each other; the first side frame 110 and the second side frame 120 can also not overlap, in which case the planes containing the first side frame 110 and the second side frame 120 are coplanar. Clearly, when the foldable storage basket 12 is folded for storage, the bottom frame 200 is close to the side frame assembly 100; when the foldable storage basket 12 is unfolded for storage, the bottom frame 200 and the side frame assembly 100 are far apart. During folding, the two first side frames 110 can move closer to each other, and the two second side frames 120 can also move closer to each other; during unfolding, the two first side frames 110 can move further away from each other, and the two second side frames 120 can also move further away from each other.

[0051] It is understandable that when a foldable storage basket 12 needs to be configured for the main body 11 of the outdoor refrigerator 10, it will involve the foldable storage basket 12 being transported, packaged, and stored separately from the main body 11. During the separate transport, packaging, and storage of the foldable storage basket 12, it can be in a fully folded state, which will significantly reduce the overall volume of the foldable storage basket 12, thereby improving the ease of use of the foldable storage basket 12 during transportation, packaging, and storage, and also reducing the transportation, packaging, and storage costs of the foldable storage basket 12.

[0052] In some embodiments, when the foldable storage basket 12 is in a fully folded state, the bottom frame 200 is sandwiched within the side frame assembly 100. This allows the side frame assembly 100 to effectively limit the bottom frame 200, preventing the bottom frame 200 from rotating relative to the first side frame 110, thereby improving the ease of use of the foldable storage basket 12 during transportation, packaging, and storage. In other embodiments, when the foldable storage basket 12 is in a fully folded state, the bottom frame 200 may also be located outside the side frame assembly 100.

[0053] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the foldable storage basket 12 may further include a support member 300. The support member 300 protrudes from at least one of the bottom frame 200, the first side frame 110, and the second side frame 120. The support member 300 abuts against the bottom frame 200 or the first side frame 110 in a third direction. For example, the connecting end of the bottom frame 200 is connected to one of the first side frames 110, and the support member 300 protrudes from the free end of the bottom frame 200 away from the connecting end in a first direction. The connecting end and the free end are opposite ends of the bottom frame 200 in the first direction. The support member 300 abuts against the other first side frame 110 in a third direction, so that the first side frame 110 provides good support for the bottom frame 200 through the support member 300. It is understandable that during the rotation of the bottom frame 200 relative to the first side frame 110, the user can apply force to the support member 300 on the bottom frame 200, making it easy for the support member 300 to drive the bottom frame 200 to rotate relative to the first side frame 110, thereby improving the ease of use of the foldable storage basket 12. Of course, the support member 300 can also be protruding along the first direction and disposed on the first side frame 110 near the free end of the bottom frame 200. The support member 300 abuts against the first side frame 110 along the third direction, which also allows the first side frame 110 to support the bottom frame 200 through the support member 300.

[0054] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, to improve the load-bearing capacity of the bottom frame 200 and enhance the stability and reliability of the foldable storage basket 12, each of the two second side frames 120 is provided with a support member 300 protruding along a second direction. The bottom frame 200 abuts against the support member 300 along a third direction, thus enabling both second side frames 120 to support and bear the load on the bottom frame 200 through different support members 300. In other embodiments, the bottom frame 200, the first side frame 110, and the second side frame 120 may all be provided with a protruding support member 300.

[0055] See Figure 3 and Figure 4In some embodiments, the side frame assembly 100 has a free end disposed away from the bottom frame 200, which is one end of the side frame assembly 100 in the third direction, and the first side frame 110 and / or the second side frame 120 are recessed toward the opening 130 near the free end to form a clearance space 140. For example, the clearance space 140 may be provided only on the first side frame 110, or only on the second side frame 120, or both the first side frame 110 and the second side frame 120 may have clearance spaces 140. By providing clearance spaces 140, when the foldable storage basket 12 is installed into the freezer cavity 101 of the main body 11, the position of the clearance space 140 on the first side frame 110 or the second side frame 120 is not in contact with the inner wall of the freezer cavity 101 but is separated by a certain distance. This allows the user's hands to reach into the clearance space 140 to apply a lifting force to the foldable storage basket 12, thereby removing the entire foldable storage basket 12 from the freezer cavity 101, ultimately improving the convenience of using the foldable storage basket 12.

[0056] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the first side frame 110, the second side frame 120, and the bottom frame 200 each include a plurality of support rods 150, which form a mesh structure. Therefore, the first side frame 110, the second side frame 120, and the bottom frame 200 are all mesh structures. For example, the first side frame 110 can be formed by a plurality of support rods 150 extending generally along a second direction and a third direction, such that the mesh openings of the first side frame 110 are generally rectangular. The second side frame 120 can be formed by a plurality of support rods 150 extending generally along a first direction and a third direction, such that the mesh openings of the second side frame 120 are generally rectangular. The bottom frame 200 can be formed by a plurality of support rods 150 extending generally along a first direction and a second direction, such that the mesh openings of the bottom frame 200 are generally rectangular. In other embodiments, the mesh openings on the first side frame 110, the second side frame 120, and the bottom frame 200 can be generally rhomboid or regular polygonal, etc.

[0057] See Figure 3 and Figure 4In some embodiments, a rotating hole, referred to as the first rotating hole 161, is provided on the second side frame 120. The support rod 150 extending along a third direction on the first side frame 110 is rotatably engaged with the first rotating hole 161, thereby realizing the rotatable connection between the first side frame 110 and the second side frame 120. In other words, the first side frame 110 rotates through the first rotating hole 151 to cooperate with the second side frame 120 in rotation. Of course, the first rotating hole 161 can also be provided on the first side frame 110, and the support rod 150 extending along a third direction on the second side frame 120 can be rotatably engaged with the first rotating hole 161, which can also realize the rotatable connection between the first side frame 110 and the second side frame 120.

[0058] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, a rotating hole, referred to as the second rotating hole 162, is provided on the first side frame 110. A support rod 150 extending along a second direction on the bottom frame 200 engages with the second rotating hole 162, thus achieving a rotatable connection between the bottom frame 200 and the first side frame 110. In other words, the bottom frame 200 rotates through the second rotating hole 162 to engage with the first side frame 110. Alternatively, the second rotating hole 162 can also be provided on the bottom frame 200, with the support rod 150 extending along the second direction on the first side frame 110 engaging with the second rotating hole 162, also achieving a rotatable connection between the bottom frame 200 and the first side frame 110.

[0059] See Figure 9 , Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 12In some embodiments, each of the two second side frames 120 includes two rotating parts 121, and the two rotating parts 121 have equal lengths in a first direction. One end of each rotating part 121 is rotatably connected to a pivot extending in a third direction, and the other end of each rotating part 121 is rotatably connected to a different first side frame 110 along the pivot extending in a third direction. When the foldable storage basket 12 needs to be folded, the bottom frame 200 can be rotated until it overlaps with one of the first side frames 110. Then, the first side frame 110 with the bottom frame 200 is fixed in place, and the two rotating parts 121 directly connected to the first side frame 110 with the bottom frame 200 are rotated until the two rotating parts 121 overlap with the first side frame 110 with the bottom frame 200. This can be understood as the second side frame 120 being recessed inward. When the two rotating parts 121 directly connected to the first side frame 110 with the stacked bottom frame 200 are stacked, the two rotating parts 121 on the same second side frame 120 are also stacked on each other, and the other first side frame 110 is also stacked on the rotating parts 121. That is, the two rotating parts 121 on the same second side frame 120 are folded in the gap between the two first side frames 110, so that the two rotating parts 121 on the same second side frame 120 are sandwiched between the two first side frames 110. In this way, the fully folded state of the foldable storage basket 12 is achieved, thereby further reducing the volume of the foldable storage basket 12 in the fully folded state, thereby further improving the ease of use of the foldable storage basket 12 in the transportation, packaging and storage process, and can also further reduce the transportation, packaging and storage costs of the foldable storage basket 12. Of course, during the folding process, the second side frame 120 can also protrude outwards. When the first side frame 110, on which the bottom frame 200 is stacked, is fixed, the two rotating parts 121 on the same second side frame 120 can overlap each other, and the two first side frames 110 can overlap each other. However, the two overlapping rotating parts 121 are located outside the two first side frames 110, rather than sandwiched between the two first side frames 110. This also achieves the fully folded state of the foldable storage basket 12. In other words, the two rotating parts 121 on the same second side frame 120 fold outside the gap between the two first side frames 110.

[0060] It is understandable that, depending on the actual needs, the folding method of the foldable storage basket 12, which includes two rotating parts 121 on the second side frame 120, can also adopt the folding mode of the foldable storage basket 12, which does not include two rotating parts 121 on the second side frame 120.

[0061] See Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments, the main body 11 further includes a suspension member 102, which protrudes from the inner wall of the freezer cavity 101 and is used to suspend the folded foldable storage basket 12. For example, for a foldable storage basket 12 with a second side frame 120 including two rotating parts 121, when the second side frame 120 is folded in an inwardly recessed manner, the foldable storage basket 12 can be folded inside the freezer cavity 101 and suspended on the suspension member 102 in the fully folded state; when the foldable storage basket 12 needs to be unfolded to hold items, it can also be transformed from a fully folded state to a fully unfolded state inside the freezer cavity 101. Therefore, by suspending the foldable storage basket 12 in the fully folded state on the suspension member 102, damage to the main body 11 can be avoided by collision between the foldable storage basket 12 and the inner wall of the freezer cavity 101 during the transportation of the outdoor refrigerator 10.

[0062] In some embodiments, both the first side frame 110 and the second side frame 120 abut against the inner wall surface of the freezing cavity 101. This can be understood as the volume of the foldable storage basket 12 being roughly equivalent to the volume of the freezing cavity 101, thus filling the entire freezing cavity 101. In this case, the length and width of the foldable storage basket 12 are equal to the length and width of the freezing cavity 101, allowing all items to be stored within the open cavity 130 of the foldable storage basket 12. When the length and width of the foldable storage basket 12 are equal to the length and width of the freezing cavity 101, it can be understood that the distance between the two first side frames 110 is equal to the distance between the two inner wall surfaces of the freezing cavity 101 spaced apart along a first direction; and the distance between the two second side frames 120 is equal to the distance between the two inner wall surfaces of the freezing cavity 101 spaced apart along a second direction.

[0063] In some implementations, when the length of the foldable storage basket 12 is not equal to the length of the freezer cavity 101, or the width of the foldable storage basket 12 is not equal to the width of the freezer cavity 101, it can be understood that the distance between the two first side frames 110 is less than the distance between the two inner wall surfaces of the freezer cavity 101 spaced apart along the first direction; or the distance between the two second side frames 120 is less than the distance between the two inner wall surfaces of the freezer cavity 101 spaced apart along the second direction. When the foldable storage basket 12 is placed in the freezer cavity 101, at least one of the two adjacent first side frames 110 and second side frames 120 can be spaced apart from the inner wall of the freezer cavity 101. This can be understood as the volume of the foldable storage basket 12 being smaller than the volume of the freezer cavity 101 and thus unable to fill the entire freezer cavity 101. The length or width of the foldable storage basket 12 can be about 50mm smaller than the length or width of the freezer cavity 101. Therefore, items can be stored in the open cavity 130 of the foldable storage basket 12, and items can also be stored in the space outside the open cavity 130 of the freezer cavity 101.

[0064] In some embodiments, the foldable storage basket 12 may also have an anti-slip structure, which is disposed on the bottom frame 200. The anti-slip structure can be an uneven structure on the bottom frame 200, thereby increasing the surface roughness of the bottom frame 200. Of course, the anti-slip structure can also be an anti-slip layer with a high coefficient of friction attached to the bottom frame 200. By providing a protective structure, the unfolded foldable storage basket 12 can be prevented from sliding in the freezer cavity 101.

[0065] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0066] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
