[0001] This utility model relates to the field of home appliances, and in particular to a position adjustment component for embedded refrigeration equipment and an embedded refrigeration equipment. Background Technology

[0002] With societal development, users' demands for the aesthetics of furniture have increased, leading to the emergence of built-in refrigeration systems. Built-in refrigeration systems generally consist of a refrigeration unit and a cabinet. The refrigeration unit, such as a refrigerator, can be installed embedded within the cabinet, resulting in a more unified and harmonious appearance for the user's furniture. Current designs typically involve pushing the refrigeration unit directly into the cabinet, requiring installers to manually adjust its position. However, this design has the following drawbacks: the refrigeration unit is relatively heavy, and adjusting its position is inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a position adjustment component for an embedded refrigeration device and an embedded refrigeration device. By setting the position adjustment component, the first cam and the second cam are driven by the drive component to swing in opposite directions at the same time, and the distance between the protruding ends of the first cam and the second cam is adjusted, so as to adjust the position of the refrigeration device in a labor-saving and convenient manner.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides a position adjustment assembly for an embedded cooling device. The position adjustment assembly includes a first cam, a second cam symmetrically arranged with respect to the first cam, and a drive assembly that is pulsatorically connected to the first cam and the second cam. The drive assembly is used to drive the first cam and the second cam to swing simultaneously in opposite directions to adjust the distance between the protruding ends of the first cam and the second cam.

[0005] In one embodiment of this application, the position adjustment component includes a first adjustment block and a second adjustment block symmetrically arranged with respect to the first adjustment block. The protruding end of the first cam abuts against the first adjustment block, and the protruding end of the second cam abuts against the second adjustment block.

[0010] In one embodiment of this application, both the first cam and the second cam have gear portions. The drive assembly includes a meshing member disposed between the gear portions of the first cam and the gear portions of the second cam. The meshing member includes a first rack and a second rack symmetrically disposed with respect to the first rack. The first rack meshes with the gear portion of the first cam, and the second rack meshes with the gear portion of the second cam. When the meshing member moves along the extending direction of the first rack and the second rack, it drives the first cam and the second cam to swing in opposite directions simultaneously.

[0011] In one embodiment of this application, the drive assembly includes a screw and a fixed seat threadedly connected to the screw. The axial direction of the screw is consistent with the extension direction of the first rack and the second rack. The end of the screw is rotatably connected to the meshing member.

A first limiting hole is formed inside the first limiting block, and a second limiting hole is formed inside the second limiting block. The connecting rod passes through the first limiting hole and the second limiting hole, and the first limiting hole and the second limiting hole are used to limit the vertical displacement of the connecting rod.

[0013] In one embodiment of this application, the position adjustment component is disposed on the bottom wall of the cabinet of the embedded refrigeration device, the first cam and the second cam are both rotatably connected to the bottom wall of the cabinet, and the first adjustment block and the second adjustment block are respectively used to abut against the left side wall and the right side wall of the cabinet of the embedded refrigeration device.

[0027] The present patent will now be described in detail with reference to the specific embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, these embodiments do not limit the present patent, and any structural, methodological, or functional modifications made by those skilled in the art based on these embodiments are included within the scope of protection of this patent.

[0028] Reference Figures 1 to 6 This application provides a position adjustment assembly 4 for an embedded cooling device 1. The position adjustment assembly 4 includes a first cam 5, a second cam 6 symmetrically arranged with respect to the first cam 5, and a drive assembly that is pulsatorically connected to the first cam 5 and the second cam 6. The drive assembly is used to drive the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 to swing simultaneously in opposite directions to adjust the distance between the protruding ends 7 of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6.

[0029] The position adjustment component 4 can be installed on the bottom wall of the housing 3 of the embedded refrigeration device 1. The first cam 5 and the second cam 6 can both be rotatably connected to the bottom wall of the housing 3.

[0030] This application provides an embedded cooling device 1, including a cabinet 2 and a housing 3 disposed within the cabinet 2. The embedded cooling device 1 also includes a position adjustment component 4 as described above. The position adjustment component 4 can be disposed on the bottom wall of the housing 3. A first cam 5 and a second cam 6 are both rotatably connected to the bottom wall of the housing 3. The first cam 5 and the second cam 6 can be symmetrical about the center of the housing 3 along the width direction. The driving component adjusts the spacing between the protruding ends 7 of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 along the width direction of the housing 3 by driving the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 to swing simultaneously in opposite directions.

[0031] The protruding end 7 of the first cam 5 and the protruding end 7 of the second cam 6 can directly abut against the left and right side walls of the cabinet 2, or indirectly abut against the left and right side walls of the cabinet 2 through other structures.

[0032] The first cam 5 and the second cam 6 are symmetrically arranged relative to the center of the cabinet 3 along the width direction of the cabinet 3. The drive assembly can make them swing synchronously in opposite directions, so that the distance between the protruding ends 7 of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 changes. Since the protruding ends 7 of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 directly or indirectly abut against the left and right side walls of the cabinet 2, the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 can drive the cabinet 3 to move inside the cabinet 2 under the reaction force of the left and right side walls of the cabinet 2. The distance between the cabinet 3 and the left and right side walls of the cabinet 2 changes, thereby realizing the position adjustment of the cabinet 3 inside the cabinet 2. Since the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 are symmetrical with respect to the center of the cabinet 3, the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 can drive the cabinet 3 to move precisely towards the center of the cabinet 2, thereby realizing the centering of the cabinet 3 inside the cabinet 2 and realizing the centering adjustment of the cabinet 3 inside the cabinet 2.

[0033] A single drive component can achieve synchronous adjustment of the two cams, making operation simple and allowing for precise adjustment of the distance between the protruding ends 7 of the two cams. By adjusting the distance between the protruding ends 7 of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6, the position adjustment of different refrigeration equipment within cabinets 2 of varying widths can be accommodated, resulting in high versatility. The direct or indirect contact between the protruding ends 7 of the first cam 5 and the left or right side walls of the cabinet 2 forms stable support points, ensuring the smoothness of the cabinet 3's position adjustment.

[0034] The bottom wall of the housing 3 may be provided with a fixed rotating shaft 31 for rotatably connecting the first cam 5 and the second cam 6. A drive device may also be provided on the bottom wall of the housing 3. The drive device may be a motor, etc.

[0035] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5In one embodiment of this application, the position adjustment assembly 4 includes a first adjustment block 9 and a second adjustment block 12 symmetrically arranged with respect to the first adjustment block 9. The protruding end 7 of the first cam 5 abuts against the first adjustment block 9. The protruding end 7 of the second cam 6 abuts against the second adjustment block 12. When the protruding ends 7 of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 move away from each other, the first adjustment block 9 and the second adjustment block 12 move away from each other. The first adjustment block 9 and the second adjustment block 12 can be used to abut against the left and right side walls of the cabinet 2 of the embedded refrigeration device 1, respectively.

[0036] The protruding ends 7 of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 respectively abut against the first adjusting block 9 and the second adjusting block 12, achieving efficient force transmission. The oscillation force of the cam is dispersed to a larger contact surface through the adjusting blocks, reducing local stress at the force concentration point when in contact with the side wall of the cabinet 2, and avoiding wear or damage that may occur if the cam protruding end 7 acts directly on the side wall of the cabinet 2. The combined design of the adjusting block and the cam protruding end 7 allows for flexible adjustment of the movement range of the adjusting block by changing the oscillation angle of the cam, thereby adapting to cabinets 2 of different widths.

[0037] The movement path of the adjusting block under the drive of the cam can be precisely controlled so that the final distance between the side wall of the box 3 and the cabinet 2 meets the design requirements, and the box 3 is centered. When adjusting, the user only needs to operate the drive component to complete the complex position adjustment of the box 3 through the linkage of the cam and the adjusting block. The structure is simple and the adjustment is convenient.

[0038] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 In one embodiment of this application, the position adjustment assembly 4 includes a first elastic element 15 and a second elastic element 16 symmetrically arranged with respect to the first elastic element 15. The first elastic element 15 is connected to the first adjusting block 9. The second elastic element 16 is connected to the second adjusting block 12. When the protruding ends 7 of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 approach each other, the first adjusting block 9 and the second adjusting block 12 approach each other under the action of the first elastic element 15 and the second elastic element 16, respectively.

[0039] When the protruding ends 7 of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 approach each other again, the first elastic element 15 and the second elastic element 16 generate elastic force, causing the first adjusting block 9 and the second adjusting block 12 to automatically approach each other and quickly return to the initial state. By introducing the first elastic element 15 and the second elastic element 16, the flexible adjustment and precise reset of the adjusting block are realized.

[0040] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5In one embodiment of this application, the position adjustment component 4 includes a first guide structure 17 and a second guide structure 19 symmetrically arranged with respect to the first guide structure 17. The first guide structure 17 guides the first adjustment block 9 to move linearly closer to or away from the second adjustment block 12. The second guide structure 19 guides the second adjustment block 12 to move linearly closer to or away from the first adjustment block 9.

[0041] The first guide structure 17 and the second guide structure 19 can be fixedly installed on the bottom wall of the housing 3. The first adjusting block 9 and the second adjusting block 12 can be installed on the bottom wall of the housing 3.

[0042] The first guide structure 17 and the second guide structure 19 can both be used to guide the first adjusting block 9 and the second adjusting block 12 to make linear movements in the left and right directions, so as to better adjust the interval between the left and right side walls of the box 3 and the cabinet 2.

[0043] The first guide structure 17 and the second guide structure 19 respectively guide the first adjusting block 9 and the second adjusting block 12 to move in a straight line. Under the action of the guide structure, the adjusting block can move quickly and accurately to the target position, avoiding the adjusting block from deviating or swaying during the adjustment process, ensuring that the adjustment trajectory is always accurate. The guide structure can provide a stable movement path for the adjusting block, improve the positioning accuracy of the adjusting block, and thus realize the precise position adjustment of the refrigeration equipment box 3.

[0044] Reference Figures 4 to 6 In one embodiment of this application, the first adjusting block 9 includes a first abutting portion 10 abutting against the protruding end 7 of the first cam 5 and a first adjusting portion 11 located on the side of the first abutting portion 10 away from the protruding end 7 of the first cam 5. The first guide structure 17 includes a first guide block 18. The first guide block 18 is located on the side of the first abutting portion 10 away from the protruding end 7 of the first cam 5 and abuts against the sidewall of the first adjusting portion 11. A first elastic member 15 is connected between the first guide block 18 and the first abutting portion 10.

[0045] The second adjusting block 12 includes a second abutting portion 13 abutting against the protruding end 7 of the second cam 6 and a second adjusting portion 14 located on the side of the second abutting portion 13 away from the protruding end 7 of the second cam 6. The second guide structure 19 includes a second guide block 20. The second guide block 20 is located on the side of the second abutting portion 13 away from the protruding end 7 of the second cam 6 and abuts against the sidewall of the second adjusting portion 14. A second elastic member 16 is connected between the second guide block 20 and the second abutting portion 13.

[0046] When the protruding end 7 of the first cam 5 and the protruding end of the second cam 6 move away from each other under the action of the drive assembly, the protruding end 7 of the first cam 5 abuts against the first abutting part 10 of the first adjusting block 9, and the first adjusting part 11 of the first adjusting block 9 is limited by the first guide block 18, so that the first adjusting block 9 moves linearly away from the second adjusting block 12. At the same time, the protruding end 7 of the second cam 6 abuts against the second abutting part 13 of the second adjusting block 12, and the second adjusting part 14 of the second adjusting block 12 is limited by the second guide block 20, so that the second adjusting block 12 moves linearly away from the first adjusting block 9.

[0047] When the first adjusting block 9 moves linearly away from the second adjusting block 12, the first abutting part 10 gradually approaches the first guide block 18, and the first elastic member 15 located between the first guide block 18 and the first abutting part 10 is compressed and undergoes elastic deformation. When the second adjusting block 12 moves linearly away from the second adjusting block 12, the second abutting part 13 gradually approaches the second guide block 20, and the second elastic member 16 located between the second guide block 20 and the second abutting part 13 is compressed and undergoes elastic deformation.

[0048] When the protruding end 7 of the first cam 5 and the protruding end 7 of the second cam 6 approach each other under the action of the drive assembly, the holding force of the protruding end 7 of the first cam 5 on the first abutting part 10 of the first adjusting block 9 decreases or even disappears. The elastic force of the first elastic member 15 acts on the first abutting part 10, thereby pushing the first adjusting block 9 to move closer to the second adjusting block 12, so that the first adjusting block 9 gradually returns to its original position. At the same time, the holding force of the protruding end 7 of the second cam 6 on the second abutting part 13 of the second adjusting block 12 decreases or even disappears. The elastic force of the second elastic member 16 acts on the second abutting part 13, thereby pushing the second adjusting block 12 to move closer to the second adjusting block 12, so that the second adjusting block 12 gradually returns to its original position.

[0049] The protruding ends 7 of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 respectively abut against the first abutting part 10 of the first adjusting block 9 and the second abutting part 13 of the second adjusting block 12, and the linear movement of the adjusting blocks is precisely controlled by the cam swing. The movement trajectory of the first adjusting block 9 and the second adjusting block 12 is strictly limited by the first guide block 18 and the second guide block 20 to ensure that they move precisely in a straight line without deviation or shaking. The first guide block 18 and the second guide block 20 abut against the side walls of the first adjusting block 9 and the second adjusting block 12 respectively, which can effectively prevent the first adjusting block 9 and the second adjusting block 12 from jamming or tilting due to uneven force.

[0050] The first elastic element 15 and the second elastic element 16 are gradually compressed when the first adjusting block 9 and the second adjusting block 12 move away from each other. They can also provide a buffer for the first adjusting block 9 and the second adjusting block 12, absorb the impact force transmitted by the cam swing, make the movement of the first adjusting block 9 and the second adjusting block 12 more stable, and reduce vibration.

[0051] When the protruding ends 7 of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 approach each other again, the elastic force of the first elastic element 15 and the second elastic element 16 pushes the first adjusting block 9 and the second adjusting block 12 to move closer to each other respectively. The restoring force of the elastic element acts between the abutting part of the adjusting block and the guide block of the guide structure. By gradually releasing the elastic force, the restoring process of the adjusting block is made smooth, avoiding rapid rebound or collision.

[0052] Through the combined action of cams, adjusting blocks, guide structures, and elastic elements, the box 3 can achieve precise and stable position adjustment, which is convenient to operate and highly durable.

[0053] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 7 In one embodiment of this application, both the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 have gear portions 8. The drive assembly includes a meshing member 21 disposed between the gear portions 8 of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6. The meshing member 21 includes a first rack 22 and a second rack 23 symmetrically arranged with respect to the first rack 22. The first rack 22 meshes with the gear portion 8 of the first cam 5. The second rack 23 meshes with the gear portion 8 of the second cam 6. When the meshing member 21 moves along the extending direction of the first rack 22 and the second rack 23, it drives the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 to swing simultaneously in opposite directions. The meshing member 21 may be disposed on the bottom wall of the housing 3.

[0054] Both the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 are equipped with gear sections 8, which mesh with the rack in the meshing member 21. When the meshing member 21 moves, the gear-rack transmission mechanism precisely drives the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 to swing simultaneously in opposite directions. The symmetrical arrangement of the rack ensures that the movements of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 are completely synchronized and symmetrical, avoiding adjustment errors that may be caused by uneven or asynchronous force on one side. The gear-rack structure has high mechanical transmission efficiency; the meshing force directly drives the cam swing, reducing energy loss in intermediate links and making the adjustment process more efficient. The meshing design of the gear section 8 and the rack ensures the continuity and stability of the transmission, avoiding vibration or impact caused by instantaneous changes in force.

[0055] The design of gear section 8 allows for a strict linear relationship between the cam's swing angle and the rack's linear movement. By driving the movement of meshing element 21, the cam's swing angle can be precisely controlled, thereby allowing for precise adjustment of the adjusting block's displacement. Gear-rack transmission is simple in structure, reliable, experiences minimal wear during operation, requires minimal maintenance, and is highly durable.

[0056] By engaging the gear portion 8 of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 with the rack of the meshing member 21, synchronous and precise oscillation control of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 is achieved, significantly improving the accuracy, stability, and efficiency of the adjustment assembly. Simultaneously, the high reliability and low maintenance of the gear-rack system provide strong support for the long-term use of the equipment, meeting the practical needs of efficient installation and convenient adjustment of the embedded refrigeration device 1.

[0057] Reference Figures 4 to 6 , Figure 8 In one embodiment of this application, the drive assembly includes a screw 25 and a fixed seat 26 threadedly connected to the screw 25. The axial direction of the screw 25 is aligned with the extending direction of the first rack 22 and the second rack 23. The end of the screw 25 is rotatably connected to a meshing member 21. When the screw 25 rotates, it drives the meshing member 21 to move away from or towards the fixed seat 26 along the axial direction of the screw 25. The fixed seat 26 can be fixedly mounted on the bottom wall of the housing 3.

[0058] When the screw 25 rotates, under the action of the fixed seat 26, the screw 25 simultaneously performs a linear movement along the rotation axis, thereby driving the meshing member 21 to move linearly closer to or away from the fixed seat 26. The threaded structure provides a precise transmission ratio, and the user can adjust the linear displacement of the meshing member 21 by adjusting the rotation angle of the screw 25. The linear movement of the meshing member 21 along the axial direction of the screw 25 directly drives the first rack 22 and the second rack 23 to move synchronously, thereby driving the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 to swing in opposite directions simultaneously, ensuring the symmetry and precision of the adjustment process.

[0059] The threaded engagement between the screw 25 and the fixed seat 26 has a self-locking function, which locks the position of the meshing member 21 when the screw 25 stops rotating, preventing accidental displacement or springback of the adjusted components and ensuring the linearity and stability of the movement of the meshing member 21. Through the threaded connection between the screw 25 and the fixed seat 26, combined with the rotational connection between the screw 25 and the meshing member 21, not only can high-precision control of the cam oscillation be achieved, improving motion stability, but it also has a self-locking function, is simple and convenient to operate, and has high durability.

[0060] Reference Figures 4 to 7In one embodiment of this application, the meshing member 21 includes a connecting rod 24 connecting the first rack 22 and the second rack 23. The end of the screw 25 is rotatably connected to the middle of the connecting rod 24. The drive assembly includes a first limiting block 27 and a second limiting block 29 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the screw 25. A first limiting hole 28 is formed inside the first limiting block 27. A second limiting hole 30 is formed inside the second limiting block 29. The connecting rod 24 passes through the first limiting hole 28 and the second limiting hole 30. The first limiting hole 28 and the second limiting hole 30 are used to limit the vertical displacement of the connecting rod 24. The first limiting block 27 and the limiting block can be fixedly mounted on the bottom wall of the housing 3.

[0061] The first limiting hole 28 of the first limiting block 27 and the second limiting hole 30 of the second limiting block 29 effectively constrain the connecting rod 24 in the vertical direction, limiting its vertical displacement during adjustment. Through the design of the limiting structure, the movement of the connecting rod 24 is precisely confined to the horizontal plane, ensuring a clear and stable movement path for the meshing member 21. The limiting holes prevent the connecting rod 24 from wobbling or shifting due to external forces or uneven force, ensuring reliable meshing between the rack and gear during the drive process and improving system stability. The connecting rod 24 connects the first rack 22 and the second rack 23. The rotation of the screw 25 drives the connecting rod 24 to move horizontally, thereby achieving synchronous movement of the racks on both sides.

[0062] The cooperation between the limiting block and the limiting hole ensures the accuracy of the movement of the connecting rod 24, reduces energy loss during adjustment, and makes the transmission more efficient. The symmetrical layout of the first limiting block 27 and the second limiting block 29 ensures that the force on both sides of the connecting rod 24 is consistent, avoiding the skew problem that may occur when limiting on one side. Through the symmetrical design of the first limiting block 27 and the second limiting block 29, and the limitation of the vertical displacement of the connecting rod 24 by the limiting hole, the stability, transmission efficiency, and adjustment accuracy of the movement of the connecting rod 24 and the meshing part 21 are effectively improved, while extending the service life of the components, enabling reliable and efficient adjustment of the embedded refrigeration device 1.

[0063] The embedded refrigeration device 1 includes a refrigeration unit and a cabinet. The refrigeration unit may include a housing 3, a storage compartment formed within the housing 3, a door for opening and closing the storage compartment, and a refrigeration system. The cabinet may include a cabinet body 2 and a door panel covering the outside of the refrigeration unit's door. The refrigeration device of this application refers to a mechanical system or device used to reduce and control the temperature of an object or space. Based on the characteristic that refrigeration devices can reduce the temperature of a space or object, they are widely used in homes, commercial spaces, and other locations.

[0064] A refrigeration system typically includes components such as a compressor, condenser, expansion valve, and evaporator, which work together through a refrigeration cycle. The refrigeration cycle generally includes compression, condensation, expansion, and evaporation. Compression occurs when the compressor compresses the refrigerant gas, heating it and increasing its pressure. Condensation occurs when the high-pressure hot gas releases heat in the condenser, cooling and condensing the refrigerant into a liquid state. Expansion occurs when the liquid refrigerant passes through the expansion valve (throttle valve), its pressure decreasing, and enters the evaporator. Evaporation occurs in the evaporator when the low-pressure refrigerant absorbs heat from the surrounding environment and evaporates into a gas. This process lowers the temperature of the surrounding environment. This cycle of compression, condensation, expansion, and evaporation repeats continuously, achieving a sustained cooling effect for the refrigeration equipment.

[0065] Storage rooms can be used to preserve food. Storage rooms can be refrigerators, freezers, or temperature-controlled compartments, etc.

[0066] In one embodiment of this application, the refrigeration device may refer to a refrigerator. A refrigerator is one of the most common refrigeration devices in households, used to preserve food, prevent spoilage, and extend its shelf life.

[0067] In one embodiment of this application, the refrigeration equipment may refer to a display case. The display case component can maintain food at a safe and suitable temperature, extending its shelf life and preventing spoilage. Its transparent design makes the food clearly visible, allowing customers to easily view and select the items they want, thus improving shopping efficiency.

[0068] In one embodiment of this application, the refrigeration equipment may refer to a freezer. Freezers are typically designed with large capacity, easy access, and a consistently low temperature environment in mind, making them ideal for storing large quantities of frozen foods, especially perishable items such as meat, seafood, frozen foods, and frozen vegetables. For users who need to store large amounts of frozen food, freezers provide ample storage space. Compared to refrigerators, which are opened frequently, freezers are opened less often, which helps maintain a stable internal temperature and reduces energy consumption.

[0069] In summary, the position adjustment component 4 and the embedded cooling device 1 of this application can solve the problem that the cooling device is relatively heavy and the position adjustment is inconvenient during the installation of the embedded cooling device 1.

[0070] By adopting the technical solution of this application, it is possible to drive the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 to swing in opposite directions through the drive component, so that the distance between the protruding ends 7 of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 changes. The protruding ends 7 of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 directly or indirectly abut against the left and right side walls of the cabinet 2. Under the reaction force of the left and right side walls of the cabinet 2, the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 drive the box 3 to move in the cabinet 2. The distance between the box 3 and the left and right side walls of the cabinet 2 changes, thereby realizing the position adjustment of the box 3 in the cabinet 2, especially the centering adjustment of the box 3 in the cabinet 2.

[0071] The protruding ends 7 of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 respectively abut against the first adjusting block 9 and the second adjusting block 12. The first adjusting block 9 and the second adjusting block 12 can respectively abut against the left and right sides of the cabinet 2 of the embedded refrigeration equipment 1. This allows the swinging force of the cams to be dispersed to a larger contact surface through the adjusting blocks, reducing local stress at the force concentration point when in contact with the side wall of the cabinet 2, and avoiding wear or damage to the side wall of the cabinet 2. In addition, the combination design of the adjusting block and the protruding end 7 of the cam can flexibly adjust the movement range of the adjusting block by changing the swing angle of the cam, thereby adapting to cabinets 2 of different widths.

[0072] By engaging the gear section 8 of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 with the rack of the meshing member 21, synchronous and precise oscillation control of the first cam 5 and the second cam 6 is achieved, significantly improving the accuracy, stability, and efficiency of the adjustment assembly. Simultaneously, the high reliability and low maintenance of the gear-rack system provide strong support for the long-term use of the equipment, meeting the practical needs of efficient installation and convenient adjustment of the embedded refrigeration device 1. Through the threaded connection between the screw 25 and the fixed seat 26, combined with the rotational connection between the screw 25 and the meshing member 21, not only can high-precision control of the cam oscillation be achieved, improving motion stability, but it also has a self-locking function, is simple and convenient to operate, and has high durability.
