AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

During transportation, vehicle vibrations can cause the threaded connection of the support feet to move, affecting the support effect. The constant opening and closing of the refrigerator during use can cause slight displacement at the threaded connection, resulting in insufficient support and increased friction, which affects the stability of use.

Method used

An adjustable foot assembly was designed. Through the cooperation of toothed blocks and toothed grooves, a spring pushes a rectangular rod to make the toothed blocks lock into the toothed grooves, ensuring that the support foot no longer rotates after adjustment, thus improving stability.

Benefits of technology

It effectively prevents the support feet from loosening due to threaded connections after adjustment, ensuring the refrigerator's support and stability, reducing friction, and improving the user experience.
