[0034] Referring to Figure 1 The present application provides a door assembly 3, which comprises a door 31 and a mounting frame 32. The mounting frame 32 comprises a plurality of strip-shaped supports 321 and a plurality of blocks 322 arranged separately. The two ends of the strip-shaped support 321 along the length direction are respectively spliced with the blocks 322. The plurality of strip-shaped supports 321 and the plurality of blocks 322 jointly enclose the mounting frame 32 for mounting the door 31. The mounting frame 32 formed by flexible assembly of the strip-shaped supports 321 and the blocks 322 can match different installation requirements of different sizes of doors 31, and has stronger versatility. In addition, by arranging the blocks 322 at the ends of the strip-shaped supports 321, the load borne by the strip-shaped supports 321 can be shared, and the deformation risk of the strip-shaped supports 321 is reduced.

[0035] In one embodiment, the plurality of blocks 322 are located at the corners of the mounting frame 32, and the strip-shaped supports 321 are located between two adjacent blocks 322 and are matched with the inclined surfaces of the blocks 322. In this way, when the strip-shaped supports 321 and the blocks 322 are matched through the inclined surfaces and bear external loads together, a pressing force can be formed between the two, similar to the locking effect of a wedge-shaped block, so that the blocks 322 and the strip-shaped supports 321 are more tightly matched and are prevented from loosening, thereby improving the overall strength of the mounting frame 32. Of course, in other embodiments, the blocks 322 and the strip-shaped supports 321 can also be matched through flat surfaces.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In one embodiment, the box door 31 includes a door shell 311 located outside the mounting frame 32. The door shell 311 includes a door shell body 3111 and a door shell edge 3112 bent inwardly from the door shell body 3111 and wrapped around the outer peripheral edge 323 of the mounting frame 32. In this way, the outer peripheral edge 323 of the mounting frame 32 can form a mounting and fitting surface for mounting the door shell 311, and by wrapping the outer peripheral edge 323 of the mounting frame 32 with the door shell edge 3112, the area enclosed by the mounting frame 32 can be made smoother and more comfortable, avoiding structures such as door shell flanges that can affect the assembly of the insulation panels 314 in the area.

[0037] It should be noted that the strip-shaped supports 321 and the blocks 322 located at the outer peripheral edge 323 of the mounting frame 32 both form mounting and fitting surfaces for mounting the door shell 311.

[0038] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 In one embodiment, the door shell edge 3112 continues to extend inwardly of the mounting frame 32 to form a clamping surface 3113 for clamping with the inner side of the mounting frame 32. In this way, by clamping the clamping surface 3113 with the inner side of the mounting frame 32, the door shell 311 can be mounted on the mounting frame 32 and prevented from shifting. For example, the inner side of the mounting frame 32 is provided with a door shell clamping portion 327, one of the clamping surface 3113 and the door shell clamping portion 327 is provided with a clamping groove, and the other is provided with a clamping protrusion matched with the clamping groove. For example, as shown in Figure 3 When the clamping surface 3113 is provided with the clamping groove, the door shell clamping portion 327 is provided with the clamping protrusion. In other embodiments, when the clamping surface 3113 is provided with the clamping protrusion, the door shell clamping portion 327 is provided with the clamping groove.

[0039] When the door shell 311 is installed on the outer side of the mounting frame 32, the door shell edge 3112 is wrapped from the outer side of the mounting frame 32 to the inner side of the mounting frame 32 via the outer peripheral edge 323 of the mounting frame 32, and then the clamping surface 3113 formed by the continuous extension of the door shell edge 3112 is clamped with the door shell clamping portion 327 arranged on the inner side of the mounting frame 32, so that the area surrounded by the mounting frame 32 is smoother, and the heat insulation plate 314 can be conveniently installed in the area.

[0040] It should be noted that the portions of the strip-shaped support 321 and the embedded block 322 located on the inner side of the mounting frame 32 form the clamping surface 3113.

[0041] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 In an embodiment, the box door 31 further comprises a door seal 312 and a door lining 313. The door seal 312 and the door lining 313 are both located on the inner side of the mounting frame 32. The inner side of the mounting frame 32 is provided with a door seal clamping portion 325 and a door lining clamping portion 326, and the door seal clamping portion 325 is closer to the outer peripheral edge 323 of the mounting frame 32 than the door lining clamping portion 326. The door seal clamping portion 325 is used for clamping the door seal 312, and the door lining clamping portion 326 is used for clamping the door lining 313. By arranging the door seal clamping portion 325 on the inner side of the mounting frame 32 relatively closer to the outer peripheral edge 323 and arranging the door lining clamping portion 326 on the inner side of the mounting frame 32 relatively farther away from the outer peripheral edge 323, the installation of the door lining 313 can be avoided from interfering with the subsequent installation of the door seal 312. In addition, by arranging the door seal clamping portion 325 and the door lining clamping portion 326 on the inner side of the mounting frame 32, the area surrounded by the mounting frame 32 can be further smoothed, and the structure of the groove of the door lining 313 can be avoided from affecting the assembly of the heat insulation plate 314 in the area.

[0042] It should be noted that the inner side of the mounting frame 32 generally refers to the side of the mounting frame 32 facing the interior of the storage compartment of the refrigerator, and the outer side of the mounting frame 32 refers to the side of the mounting frame 32 facing the outside of the refrigerator and opposite to the inner side of the mounting frame 32. In addition, the portions of the strip-shaped support 321 and the embedded block 322 located on the inner side of the mounting frame 32 are both provided with the door seal clamping portion 325 and the door lining clamping portion 326.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5In one embodiment, the box door 31 further comprises a heat insulation plate 314.

The heat insulation plate 314 is arranged in the receiving space 316 and is in abutment with the inner peripheral edge 324 of the mounting frame 32. In this way, the heat insulation plate 314 can be completely filled in the receiving space 316, and the gap between the heat insulation plate 314 and the inner peripheral edge 324 of the mounting frame 32 can be avoided to prevent cold air leakage. For example, the heat insulation plate 314 includes, but is not limited to, a foam plate or a VIP plate (Vacuum Insulation Panel).

[0044] For further reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 In one embodiment, the door seal 312 surrounds the door liner 313 and has a gap 315 between the door seal 312 and the door liner 313. At least one of the door seal clamping portion 325 and the door liner clamping portion 326 can extend into the gap 315. In this way, the design position of the door seal clamping portion 325 and the door liner clamping portion 326 can be more compact, and when at least one of the door seal clamping portion 325 and the door liner clamping portion 326 is clamped with at least one of the door seal 312 and the door liner 313, the gap 315 can be shielded.

[0045] For further reference Figure 5 In one embodiment, the door liner 313 comprises a door liner body 3131 and a door liner flange 3132 extending outwardly from the door liner body 3131. The door liner clamping portion 326 comprises a door liner clamping groove, and one side groove wall of the door liner clamping groove can extend into the gap 315 and be clamped with the door liner flange 3132. In this way, after the door liner clamping portion 326 and the door liner flange 3132 are clamped, the door liner body 3131, the door shell body 3111 and the inner peripheral edge 324 of the mounting frame 32 jointly enclose a square receiving space 316, which is convenient for installing a square heat insulation plate 314.

[0046] It should be noted that the number of heat insulation plates 314 is not specifically limited here and can be freely selected according to actual design requirements.
