[0042] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0043] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "transverse", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0044] In existing technologies, especially double-layer car refrigerators, a storage box is usually installed inside the refrigerator to facilitate access to items located in the lower layer. This storage box forms a storage space for storing items, and it is movable within the refrigerator via a sliding rail, forming a drawer structure. However, in this configuration, the sliding rail and storage box encroach on the internal storage volume of the car refrigerator, reducing its storage space. Within the limited space of the vehicle, the external volume of the car refrigerator is constrained by the interior and other components, thus reducing its capacity. Furthermore, the installation of a storage box also results in a large gap between the condenser pipes located on the inner wall of the box and the items in the storage space, significantly reducing the heat exchange effect between the condenser pipes and the items, affecting the storage performance of the car refrigerator and increasing energy consumption.

[0045] In addition, because car refrigerators operate under alternating hot and cold conditions, the temperature and humidity environment of the storage space is complex. This can cause the sliding rails and other components to become damp, potentially leading to rust, mold, and mechanical malfunctions such as jamming or abnormal noises, thus affecting the lifespan of the car refrigerator.

[0046] The following description of an embodiment of the vehicle refrigerator 1000 of this utility model is based on the accompanying drawings.

[0047] Combination Figures 1-6 As shown, the vehicle refrigerator 1000 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes: a cabinet 100 and at least one first door 200.

[0048] Among them, combined Figures 1-6 As shown, the housing 100 defines a first storage space 110 and a second storage space 120 arranged sequentially along a first direction Z. The first storage space 110 has a first opening 111 on the side opposite to the second storage space 120, and the second storage space 120 has a second opening 121 on the side along a second direction X, where the second direction X intersects the first direction Z. This can be understood as the first direction being... Figure 1 The Z direction shown is the vertical direction of the vehicle, and the second direction is... Figure 1 The X direction shown is the forward and backward direction of the vehicle.

[0049] With the above arrangement, the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120 are arranged sequentially in the Z direction, and the first storage space 110 is provided with a first opening 111 in the Z direction, and the second storage space 120 is provided with a second opening 121 in the X direction, so as to realize that the first opening 111 and the second opening 121 are opened in different directions.

[0050] In some embodiments, an opening at the top of the first storage space 110 and an opening at the rear of the second storage space 110 facilitate access for drivers and passengers to items in the first and second storage spaces 110.

[0051] In some embodiments, the housing 100 can be understood as the basic architecture of the vehicle refrigerator 1000, providing stable support for the entire vehicle refrigerator 1000, so that the vehicle refrigerator 1000 can remain stable during vehicle travel, thereby resisting and buffering the weight of the items inside the vehicle refrigerator 1000 and the impact of external forces caused by vehicle vibration, bumps, etc., maintaining the overall shape of the vehicle refrigerator 1000, and thus ensuring the normal use of the vehicle refrigerator 1000; the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120 are the core parts for realizing the basic functions of the vehicle refrigerator 1000, providing a certain storage space for food, beverages and other items, thereby facilitating the use of the vehicle refrigerator 1000 to store food, beverages and other items, and ensuring the working performance of the vehicle refrigerator 1000.

[0052] Meanwhile, by setting the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120 in sequence along the first direction Z, the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120 can work together to make full use of the space inside the vehicle refrigerator 1000, and make it easy to define the vehicle refrigerator 1000 into a double-layer structure. This makes it easy to store different types of items separately, avoid different types of items from being squeezed together or having their odors mixed, and different items can be preserved, frozen or refrigerated through different storage spaces, meeting the preservation, freezing or refrigeration needs of different items and improving the performance of the vehicle refrigerator 1000.

[0053] This application directly utilizes the housing 100 to define the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120. Compared with the prior art, which sets a storage box inside the housing 100 to form the storage space, this not only reduces the molding difficulty of the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120 and improves molding efficiency, but also eliminates the need for storage boxes and sliding rail structures. In particular, by eliminating the need for storage boxes and sliding rail structures, at least the following technical effects are achieved:

[0054] First, the structure of the vehicle refrigerator 1000 is simplified, thereby reducing the overall weight of the vehicle refrigerator 1000 and the manufacturing cost of the vehicle refrigerator 1000, so that the vehicle refrigerator 1000 and the vehicle meet the lightweight design trend.

[0055] Second, the capacity of the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120 is increased so that the vehicle refrigerator 1000 meets the requirements of large capacity, thereby improving the storage performance of the vehicle refrigerator 1000.

[0056] Third, by eliminating unnecessary parts and returning to the essential cooling and heating functions of the Car Refrigerator 1000, not only is the stability of the Car Refrigerator 1000 improved and the failure rate reduced, but the Car Refrigerator 1000 is also easier to clean, improving the user experience for drivers and passengers.

[0057] Fourth, it enables the inner wall of the cabinet 100 to directly exchange heat with the items through convection, thins the air layer, and thus reduces the thermal resistance, thereby improving the cooling and heating effect of the vehicle refrigerator 1000, enhancing the performance of the vehicle refrigerator 1000, and reducing the energy consumption of the vehicle refrigerator 1000 and the energy consumption of the whole vehicle.

[0058] In summary, this application directly utilizes the housing 100 to define the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120. This reduces the molding difficulty of the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120, while also achieving a lightweight design of the vehicle refrigerator 1000, enabling the vehicle refrigerator 1000 to meet the requirements of large capacity, improving the stability of the vehicle refrigerator 1000, and making the vehicle refrigerator 1000 have better cooling and heating effects, thereby improving the working performance of the vehicle refrigerator 1000.

[0059] In some embodiments, the heat exchange methods of the vehicle refrigerator 1000 of this application are mainly three types: heat convection, heat radiation and heat conduction.

[0060] In some embodiments, the interior of the housing 100 is hollow, defining a first storage space 110 and a second storage space 120, thereby reducing the molding difficulty of the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120.

[0061] Furthermore, by setting a first opening 111 and a second opening 121, and opening the first opening 111 and the second opening 121 in different directions, the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120 can each correspond to different openings. In this way, passengers in different positions in the vehicle can conveniently take and put items from the corresponding openings according to their needs without having to cross or move other items, thereby meeting the needs of passengers in different seats in the vehicle and improving the user experience of drivers and passengers.

[0062] Combination Figures 1-6As shown, at least one first opening / closing door 200 is located at the second opening 121 and is movably connected to the housing 100. The first opening / closing door 200 is used to open and close the second opening 121. When the second opening 121 is opened using at least one first opening / closing door 200, passengers can directly access items in the second storage space 120, making it more convenient and improving the usability of the vehicle refrigerator 1000. When the second opening 121 is closed using at least one first opening / closing door 200, it improves the sealing of the second storage space 120, enhancing the cooling and heating performance of the vehicle refrigerator 1000 and preventing items from moving out of the second storage space 120 through the second opening 121 during driving, thus improving the stability of the items.

[0063] The first door 200 of this application is movably connected to the cabinet 100, so that the first door 200 can be movably connected to the cabinet 100. While facilitating the opening or closing of the second opening 121 by using the first door 200, the cabinet 100 can always support the first door 200, improve the positional stability of the first door 200, help ensure the working performance of the first door 200, and improve the structural stability of the vehicle refrigerator 1000.

[0064] As can be seen from the above structure, the vehicle refrigerator 1000 of this utility model embodiment directly utilizes the cabinet 100 to define the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120, thereby eliminating the need for storage boxes and sliding rail structures. This reduces the molding difficulty of the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120, while also achieving a lightweight design of the vehicle refrigerator 1000, enabling the vehicle refrigerator 1000 to meet the requirements of large capacity, improving the stability of the vehicle refrigerator 1000, and making the cooling and heating effects of the vehicle refrigerator 1000 better, thereby improving the working performance of the vehicle refrigerator 1000.

[0065] Meanwhile, by setting at least one first opening and closing door 200 and movably connecting at least one first opening and closing door 200 to the cabinet 100, the second opening 121 can be stably opened or closed using the first opening and closing door 200. This prevents items from being moved out through the second opening 121 and also makes it convenient for drivers and passengers to directly take items from the second storage space 120, making it easier to take items and improving the usability of the vehicle refrigerator 1000.

[0066] Understandably, compared to existing technologies, this application directly utilizes the housing 100 to define the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120, thereby reducing the molding difficulty of the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120. At the same time, it can also achieve a lightweight design of the vehicle refrigerator 1000, enable the vehicle refrigerator 1000 to meet the requirements of large capacity, improve the stability of the vehicle refrigerator 1000, and make the cooling and heating effects of the vehicle refrigerator 1000 better, thus improving the working performance of the vehicle refrigerator 1000.

[0067] In some embodiments, the vehicle refrigerator 1000 is located between the driver's seat and the passenger seat and is integrated with the vehicle without the need for separate fixing. This avoids the vehicle refrigerator 1000 occupying interior space while ensuring driving safety and reliability.

[0068] Meanwhile, the outer shell of the box body 100 can be designed in a unified manner with the interior of the vehicle, and the color, materials and style can be integrated with the whole vehicle to enhance the vehicle's aesthetics.

[0069] In some embodiments, when the vehicle refrigerator 1000 is located between the driver's seat and the passenger seat, the first opening 111 can be located near the driver's seat and the passenger seat to facilitate front-seat passengers to take items through the first opening 111, and the second opening 121 can be located near the rear seats to facilitate rear-seat passengers to take items through the second opening 121.

[0070] In some embodiments, the vehicle refrigerator 1000 further includes a partition (not shown in the figure), which is disposed within the body 100 to be connected to the inner wall of the body 100. The first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120 are respectively located on opposite sides of the partition in the first direction Z. This reduces the molding difficulty of the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120.

[0071] Meanwhile, by using partitions to define independent first storage space 110 and second storage space 120, the capacity of the first storage space 110 and second storage space 120 can be maximized compared to setting up a storage box, so that the vehicle refrigerator 1000 meets the large capacity requirements.

[0072] In addition, by connecting the partition plate to the inner wall of the housing 100, the housing 100 can be used to support the partition, thereby improving the positional stability of the partition and ensuring its working performance to a certain extent.

[0073] Optionally, the connection between the partition plate and the inner wall of the box 100 can be any form of bonding, snap-fitting, or bolting.

[0074] In some embodiments, a through hole may be provided on the separator, which is used to enable the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120 to communicate with each other, so as to facilitate heat exchange between the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120, thereby enabling the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120 to maintain the same or similar temperature, so that the items in the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120 can be effectively preserved, refrigerated or frozen.

[0075] Of course, in some other embodiments, the separator may not have a through hole. This can improve the structural stability of the separator and make the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120 independent of each other. This avoids wasting the cooling capacity of the other storage space when one storage space is opened, thus improving the cooling effect of the vehicle refrigerator 1000. At the same time, it can also prevent heat exchange between the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120 to a certain extent, thereby creating a temperature difference between the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120. This allows items to be stored in different storage spaces according to their different temperature requirements, thus meeting the preservation, refrigeration or freezing needs of different items.

[0076] In some embodiments, the first storage space 110 can be used for refrigeration, and the second storage space 120 can be used for freezing. The first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120 can store items independently, so that the items in the vehicle refrigerator 1000 are all in a suitable temperature environment.

[0077] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, two first opening doors 200 are provided at the second opening 121. The two first opening doors 200 are arranged opposite each other along the first direction Z or the third direction Y, and the third direction Y, the second direction X, and the first direction Z intersect each other. Here, it means that the third direction is... Figure 1 The Y direction shown is the left-right direction of the vehicle. Through the above arrangement, the two first opening / closing doors 200 are positioned along the Z direction (e.g., ...). Figure 5 (as shown) or in the Y direction (e.g.) Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the two storage spaces are arranged opposite each other so that the door of the second storage space 120 is a double door structure. This not only makes it easier to open and close the second opening 121 using the first door 200, but also helps to reduce the space occupied by the first door 200 when opening the second opening 121, reduces the difficulty of opening and closing the first door 200, and reduces the space occupied by the vehicle refrigerator 1000 in the vehicle. This solves the technical problem that the opening and closing of the vehicle refrigerator 1000 is difficult due to insufficient vehicle space.

[0078] In the description of this utility model, the features defined as "first", "second" and "third" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features, used to distinguish the descriptive features, without any order or importance.

[0079] Of course, in some other embodiments, combined with Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, there is one first switch door 200. One first switch door 200 can also realize the opening and closing of the second opening 121, and simplify the number of first switch doors 200 and reduce the assembly difficulty of the first switch door 200.

[0080] In summary, the first direction Z is the vertical direction of the vehicle, the second direction X is the front-to-back direction of the vehicle, and the third direction Y is the left-to-right direction of the vehicle. This arrangement ensures that the third direction Y, the second direction X, and the first direction Z intersect in pairs, while also creating an opening at the top of the first storage space 110 and at the rear of the second storage space 110, facilitating access for drivers and passengers to retrieve items from both storage spaces.

[0081] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, both first doors 200 can move away from each other to open the second opening 121. This can be understood as both first doors 200 moving away from each other to open the second opening 121. This not only allows the two first doors 200 to work together to open and close the second opening 121, but also ensures that the opening size of the second opening 121 is as large as possible when the two first doors 200 work together to open the second opening 121. This makes it easier to retrieve and place items in the second storage space 120, further improving the convenience of using the vehicle refrigerator 1000 inside the vehicle.

[0082] In some embodiments, when one of the first switch doors 200 moves to the left in the Y direction to open the second opening 121, the other first switch door 200 moves to the right in the Y direction to open the second opening 121; correspondingly, when one of the first switch doors 200 moves upward in the Z direction to open the second opening 121, the other first switch door 200 moves downward in the Z direction to open the second opening 121, so that the opening and closing directions of the two first switch doors 200 are opposite.

[0083] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the first door 200 is slidably connected to the cabinet 100. This allows for the movable cooperation between the first door 200 and the cabinet 100, facilitating the opening or closing of the second opening 121 using the first door 200, while also ensuring that the cabinet 100 can always support the first door 200, improving the positional stability of the first door 200, which is beneficial for ensuring the working performance of the first door 200 and enhancing the structural stability of the vehicle refrigerator 1000.

[0084] In addition, by sliding the first door 200 to the cabinet 100, there is no need to reserve rotation space for the first door 200, which allows the vehicle refrigerator 1000 to be installed more compactly in the vehicle, improving the utilization rate of the vehicle interior space.

[0085] In some embodiments, the housing 100 is provided with a slide rail, and the first switch door 200 is movably disposed on the slide rail to achieve a sliding connection between the first switch door 200 and the housing 100.

[0086] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first door 200 is rotatably connected to the housing 100. This can be understood as not being limited to a sliding connection between the first door 200 and the housing 100; a rotatable connection can also be used. This rotatable connection allows for the movable coordination of the first door 200 and the housing 100, facilitating the opening or closing of the second opening 121 using the first door 200. Simultaneously, it ensures that the housing 100 consistently supports the first door 200, improving its positional stability, thus guaranteeing its performance and enhancing the structural stability of the vehicle refrigerator 1000.

[0087] In some embodiments, when the first door 200 is rotatably connected to the housing 100, the driver and passengers can rotate the first door 200 as needed to easily retrieve items from the second storage space 120, which can better adapt to the needs of retrieving and placing different items.

[0088] Optionally, the rotational connection between the first door 200 and the housing 100 can be achieved through a connection method such as a pivot, hinge, or elastic element.

[0089] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the first door 200 and the housing 100 are rotatably connected via a rotating connector (not shown in the figure), which is disposed near at least one side of the second opening 121. Here, "at least one side of the second opening 121" can refer to at least one side of the second opening 121 in the Y direction (e.g.,...). Figure 1As shown), it can also be at least one side of the second opening 121 in the Z direction (as shown). Figure 3 As shown, compared to setting the rotating connector near the center of the second opening 121, the opening size of the second opening 121 can be as large as possible when the first door 200 opens the second opening 121, thereby making it easier to take out and put in items in the second storage space 120 and improving the convenience of using the vehicle refrigerator 1000 in the vehicle.

[0090] Of course, in some other embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the rotating connector can also be positioned close to the center of the second opening 121.

[0091] The rotating connecting parts mentioned here can be understood as shafts, hinges, etc.

[0092] In some embodiments, the vehicle refrigerator 1000 further includes a drive unit (not shown) for driving the first door 200 to move relative to the cabinet 100. This enables the first door 200 to open or close automatically, improving the ease of use of the vehicle refrigerator 1000.

[0093] In addition, the drive unit can provide stable power output, so that the speed of the first door 200 remains uniform during the opening and closing process, without sudden changes in speed. This reduces the vibration and noise generated by the first door 200 during the opening and closing process, allowing drivers and passengers to experience a more comfortable experience and improving the user experience.

[0094] In some embodiments, the driving component may be a drive motor or a drive cylinder, etc.

[0095] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle refrigerator 1000 also includes a drive button 210, which is electrically connected to a drive component and is used to control the operation of the drive component. This allows the drive component to move the first door 200 relative to the cabinet 100, further improving the ease of use of the vehicle refrigerator 1000.

[0096] In addition, the opening and closing action of the first door 200 can be precisely controlled by the drive button 210 in conjunction with the drive component. Compared with manually pulling and pushing the first door 200, driving the first door 200 by the drive button 210 can reduce the risk of pinching hands to a certain extent and improve the safety of using the vehicle refrigerator 1000.

[0097] Optionally, the drive button 210 is located on the housing 100 or the first switch door 200 so that the housing 100 or the first switch door 200 can support the drive button 210, improve the positional stability of the drive button 210, and ensure the working performance of the drive button 210 to a certain extent.

[0098] In a specific example, when the second opening 121 needs to be opened, the driver and passengers can press the drive button 210, at which time the first door 200 will slowly open, allowing the driver and passengers to take out items from the second storage space 120, giving the driver and passengers a greater sense of ceremony and technology, while also making the use of the vehicle refrigerator 1000 more convenient; when the second opening 121 needs to be closed, the driver and passengers can press the drive button 210 again, at which time the first door 200 will slowly close, or the driver and passengers can manually close the first door 200.

[0099] In some embodiments, combined with Figures 1-6 As shown, the vehicle refrigerator 1000 also includes a second door 300, which is located at the first opening 111 and is used to open and close the first opening 111. When the first opening 111 is opened using the second door 300, drivers and passengers can directly access items in the first storage space 110, making it more convenient and improving the usability of the vehicle refrigerator 1000. When the first opening 111 is closed using the second door 300, it improves the sealing of the first storage space 110, reduces heat exchange between the inside and outside of the first storage space 110, thereby enhancing the cooling and heating performance of the vehicle refrigerator 1000. It also prevents items in the first storage space 110 from moving out through the first opening 111 during driving, improving the stability of the items.

[0100] In some embodiments, combined with Figures 1-6 As shown, the second door 300 is movably connected to the cabinet 100. This movable connection can be a sliding connection or a rotating connection. While facilitating the opening and closing of the first opening 111 using the second door 300, it also ensures that the cabinet 100 always supports the second door 300, improving the positional stability of the second door 300, thus guaranteeing its performance and enhancing the structural stability of the vehicle refrigerator 1000.

[0101] In specific examples, combined Figures 1-6 As shown, the second door 300 is rotatably connected to the housing 100. Drivers and passengers can open the second door 300 by flipping it open, which makes it easy to take out and put in items in the first storage space 110.

[0102] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the first door 200 and / or the second door 300 are provided with handles 220. This means that the first door 200 is provided with handles 220; or, the second door 300 is provided with handles 220; or, both the first door 200 and the second door 300 are provided with handles 220. By providing handles 220, it is convenient for drivers and passengers to open or close the first door 200 and / or the second door 300, reducing the difficulty of opening and closing the first door 200 and / or the second door 300, thereby making it convenient for drivers and passengers to retrieve items in the first storage space 110 and the second storage space 120.

[0103] In some embodiments, combined with Figures 1-6 As shown, the vehicle refrigerator 1000 also includes a control component 400, which is located on the first door 200 or the cabinet 100. The control component 400 is used to control the parameters of the vehicle refrigerator 1000. This means that the control component 400 can be located on the first door 200 (e.g., Figures 3-6 As shown), it can also be installed on the housing 100 (e.g. Figure 2 As shown, the control component 400 is supported by the first door 200 or the cabinet 100, which improves the positional stability of the control component 400 and ensures the working performance of the control component 400 to a certain extent. This allows the driver and passengers to control the parameters of the vehicle refrigerator 1000 through the control component 400, improves the working performance of the vehicle refrigerator 1000, and enhances the convenience of operation for the driver and passengers.

[0104] In some embodiments, the parameters of the vehicle refrigerator 1000 include, but are not limited to, the operating mode (cooling mode, heating mode, etc.) of the vehicle refrigerator 1000, the target temperature of the vehicle refrigerator 1000, and the scheduled time for the vehicle refrigerator 1000.

[0105] In some embodiments, the control component 400 is also used to display the operating status of the vehicle refrigerator 1000, the real-time internal temperature of the vehicle refrigerator 1000, etc., so that drivers and passengers can intuitively observe the operating information of the vehicle refrigerator 1000.

[0106] In some embodiments, the control component 400 is also used to remind the first door 200 and / or the second door 300 whether they are closed, thereby improving the convenience of operation for drivers and passengers.

[0107] Of course, in some other embodiments, the control component 400 may also be located on the second door 300 (not shown in this example figure), and no specific limitation is made here.

[0108] In the specific example, control component 400 can be understood as a control screen.
