[0016] The utility model will be further described in detail through the following examples.
[0017] Referring to Figures 1 to 4As shown, an electric air door frame of a forced air refrigerator comprises an air door frame 1, a rectangular air port 1-1 is arranged in the middle of the lower part of the air door frame 1, the air port 1-1 is provided with a surrounding edge 1-2 composed of two opposite long surrounding edges 1-2-1 and two opposite short surrounding edges 1-2-2, an air door is connected with the top of the surrounding edge 1-2 in a matching contact mode, a baffle 1-3, a vertically arranged cylindrical first protruding column 1-4, a first positioning pin 1-7 and a second positioning pin 1-2 are arranged on the air door frame 1 beside the outside of the short surrounding edge 1-2-2 of the upper end of the air port 1-1, a vertically arranged cylindrical second protruding column 1-5 and a third protruding column 1-6 are arranged on the air door frame 1 beside the outside of the lower part of the long surrounding edge 1-2-1, a rigid conductive plastic open square frame 2 is arranged on the outside of the surrounding edge 1-2 and is connected with the surrounding edge 1-2 in a matching contact mode, the open part of the rigid conductive plastic open square frame 2 is provided with a first connecting part 2-1 with a first connecting terminal 3-1 and a second connecting part 2-2 with a second connecting terminal 3-2, the rigid conductive plastic open square frame 2 is positioned and fixed in a cavity formed between the first protruding column 1-4, the second protruding column 1-5, the third protruding column 1-6 and the air port surrounding edge 1-2 through the first protruding column 1-4, the second protruding column 1-5, the third protruding column 1-6 and the baffle 1-3, the first positioning pin 1-7 and the second positioning pin 1-8, the first section frame strip 2-3 of the rigid conductive plastic open square frame 2 beside the outside of the left long surrounding edge 1-2-1 is in a wavy shape, the second section frame strip 2-4 beside the outside of the right long surrounding edge 1-2-2 is in a straight line shape, the rigid conductive plastic open square frame 2 is integrally compressed by using PA carbon fiber composite conductive material, the first connecting part 2-1 is provided with the first connecting terminal 3-1, and the second connecting part 2-2 is provided with the second connecting terminal 3-2.
[0018] The frame strip of the rigid conductive plastic open square frame 2 is in a square strip shape, the first connecting part 2-1 and the second connecting part 2-2 are both in a flat plate shape, and the cross-sectional area of the first connecting part 2-1 and the second connecting part 2-2 is 1.5-2 times larger than the cross-sectional area of the first section frame strip 2-1 and the second section frame strip 2-2 of the rigid conductive plastic open square frame 2.
[0019] The outer surface of the rigid conductive plastic open square frame 2 is coated with a layer of insulating paint.
[0020] The air door frame 1 is made of plastic injection molding, and the first connecting terminal 3-1 and the second connecting terminal 3-2 are both made of metal, for example, copper material.
[0021] The heating base material of the rigid conductive plastic open square frame 2 is PA carbon fiber composite conductive material, and the resistivity p = 3.6 x 10 -3Ω·m; the working voltage of the rigid conductive plastic open square frame 2 is DC 12V, and the electric power is 1W, which can meet the defrosting requirements of the electric air door. Since the rigid conductive plastic open square frame 2 has high brittleness, the cross-sectional area of the frame strip should not be too large, otherwise the length of the frame strip will increase, but it should not be too small, otherwise the frame strip will be easily broken and damaged. According to practical experience, the cross-sectional area of the frame strip is 5mm 2 left and right is the most appropriate. Through conventional calculation, the length of the frame strip of the rigid conductive plastic open square frame 2 is 200mm, which is slightly larger than the perimeter of the air-cooled refrigerator electric air door air port surrounding edge of the maximum capacity. By adjusting the amplitude of the first wave-shaped frame strip 2-3, it can be applied to various large, medium and small capacity air-cooled refrigerators, so it has strong versatility.

There is a gap between the frame strip and the corresponding surrounding edge 1-2, the bottom plane of the second protruding column 1-5 and its umbrella-shaped barb, and the bottom plane of the third protruding column 1-6 and its umbrella-shaped barb, which is used to accommodate the cold shrinkage and thermal expansion amount of the rigid conductive plastic open square frame 2 when it changes from -40℃ to +70℃, to ensure that the rigid conductive plastic open square frame 2 will not be broken and will not be out of the defined position during operation.
[0023] The outer surface of the rigid conductive plastic open square frame 2 needs to be coated with a layer of insulating paint, which can slow down the aging of the conductive plastic in the humid environment of the refrigerator, and prevent the conductive plastic from increasing the resistivity due to water absorption, thereby causing the electric power of the rigid conductive plastic open square frame 2 to decrease, which seriously affects its defrosting effect.
[0024] The air door frame 1 equipped with the rigid conductive plastic open square frame 2 is tested and inspected: the air door frame 1 is dropped from 1.2m high to the cement floor in the drop test from three directions XYZ, and the rigid conductive plastic open square frame 2 in the air door frame 1 will not be broken and / or fall off. It exceeds the requirements of the drop test specified in the international GB / T35720-2017.
