[0022] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that these descriptions are merely descriptive and exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0023] It should be noted that similar labels in the following figures indicate similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it may not be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.
[0024] This embodiment mainly describes the structure of the trolley refrigerator, as follows:
[0025] An easy-to-clean trolley refrigerator, such as Figures 1-5As shown, the refrigerator includes a refrigerator body 1, a movable base 101, a mounting plate 2, a slider 3, a bracket 4, a first guide rod 5, a wedge block 6, a first elastic element 61, and an ejector assembly 7. The movable base 101 is connected to the mounting plate 2 on both the left and right sides. The refrigerator body 1 is connected to the slider 3 on both the left and right sides. The slider 3 is slidably connected to the mounting plate 2. The upper and lower ends of the front side of the mounting plate 2 are connected to the bracket 4. The first guide rod 5 is slidably connected to the bracket 4. The first elastic element 61 is sleeved on the first guide rod 5. The rear end of the first guide rod 5 is connected to the wedge block 6. One end of the first elastic element 61 is connected to the wedge block 6, and the other end is connected to the bracket 4. The wedge block 6 connected to the upper bracket 4 and the guide rod has a downward inclined surface, while the wedge block 6 connected to the lower bracket 4 and the guide rod has an upward inclined surface. The slider 3 and the inclined surface of the wedge block 6 are pressed together. The straight surface of the wedge block 6 is limited to the slider 3. An ejector assembly 7 for pushing the refrigerator body 1 is provided in the middle of the movable base 101. The refrigerator body 1 is in contact with the ejector assembly 7.
[0026] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the ejector assembly 7 includes a fixed plate 71, a top plate 72, second guide rods 73, and a second elastic element 74. The fixed plate 71 is connected to the movable base frame 101. Several second guide rods 73 are slidably connected to the fixed plate 71. The top of all the second guide rods 73 is connected to the top plate 72. The top plate 72 contacts the bottom of the refrigerator body 1. A second elastic element 74 is fitted on each second guide rod 73. One end of the second elastic element 74 is connected to the fixed plate 71, and the other end is connected to the top plate 72. The compressed second elastic element... 74 pushes the top plate 72, causing the refrigerator body 1 and slider 3 to have an upward trend. This makes it easier for the user to grab the slider 3 before lifting the refrigerator, and also allows the first guide rod 5 to be released in time to stabilize the refrigerator body 1 and slider 3. When the refrigerator falls, the refrigerator body 1 contacts the top plate 72, and the top plate 72 presses down on the second guide rod 73, thereby compressing the second elastic element 74. The rebound force of the second elastic element 74 buffers the impact force, reduces the falling speed of the refrigerator body 1, and protects the refrigerator body 1 from impact.
[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, it also includes a screw 11 and a movable rod 12. The screw 11 is threadedly connected to the rear side of the mounting plate 2. The screw 11 is pressed into the slider 3. The movable rod 12 is slidably connected to the rear end of the screw 11.
[0028] After lifting the refrigerator body 1 and rotating the slider 3, it needs to stand still for a period of time. At this time, the screw 11 is rotated by the movable rod 12, and the screw 11 is fed towards the mounting plate 2, squeezing the slider 3, thereby stabilizing the rotation angle of the slider 3 and maintaining the tilt angle of the refrigerator body 1, which facilitates the user's cleaning process. The movable rod 12 can move back and forth to ensure sufficient lever arm and effectively save effort.
[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, it also includes a rotating handle 10. The end of the slider 3 is connected to the rotating handle 10. Rotating the slider 3 by rotating the handle 10 is more effortless and more stable.
[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, it also includes a protective sleeve 8. The protective sleeve 8 is wrapped between the fixing plate 71 and the top plate 72. The top of the protective sleeve 8 is connected to the top plate 72 and the bottom is connected to the fixing plate 71. The protective sleeve 8 maintains the environment between the top plate 72 and the fixing plate 71, prevents foreign objects from entering, ensures the working environment of the second elastic element 74, and extends its service life.
[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, it also includes a shock-absorbing pad 9. The top of the top plate 72 is connected to the shock-absorbing pad 9. The shock-absorbing pad 9 further optimizes the buffering effect and effectively buffers the impact force between the refrigerator body 1 and the top plate 72, thus protecting the top plate 72.
[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, it also includes an auxiliary rod 13. The front end of the first guide rod 5 is connected to the auxiliary rod 13. The auxiliary rod 13 makes it easier to pull the first guide rod 5, which is more labor-saving.
[0033] like Figure 5 As shown, it also includes rollers 14. Several rollers 14 are rotatably connected to the inclined surface of the wedge block 6. The rollers 14 on the inclined surface of the wedge block 6 effectively reduce the friction between the slider 3 and the wedge block 6, thereby ensuring that the wedge block 6 can respond and slide in time when the slider 3 is squeezed, reducing the possibility of the wedge block 6 disengaging from the first guide rod 5 or the first guide rod 5 breaking.
[0034] After placing ice and other items to be refrigerated into the refrigerator body 1, the user moves the refrigerator to its destination using the movable base 101. During the movement, the shock-absorbing pad 9 and the second elastic element 74 work together to cushion the impact from the ground, protecting the refrigerator body 1. Upon arrival at the destination, the user can enjoy the refrigerated items. After the activity, during cleaning, two users pull out the two lower first guide rods 5, causing the wedge block 6 to detach from the mounting plate 2 and compress the first elastic element 61. Simultaneously, the second elastic element 74 pushes the top plate 72, raising the refrigerator body 1, making it easier for the user to hold the slider 3 and lift it. The slider 3 slides within the mounting plate 2, causing the refrigerator body 1 to rise accordingly. After releasing the first guide rods 5, the first elastic element 61 rebounds, and the wedge block 6 re-inserts into the mounting plate 2, stabilizing the refrigerator body 1. Next, the user continues to lift the slider 3, which slides under the pressure of the wedge block 6's inclined surface, causing the first elastic element 61 to rebound again. When the slider 3 passes the wedge block 6, the first elastic element 61 pushes the wedge block 6 into the mounting plate 2, supporting the refrigerator body 1. Then, the user rotates the refrigerator body 1, pours out the ice cubes and washes it with water. The water stains slide off naturally, improving cleaning efficiency.
[0035] After cleaning, pull out the first guide rod 5 at the top, and the refrigerator body 1 and slider 3 fall down. The slider 3 contacts and presses against the wedge block 6 at the bottom, causing it to slide. The first elastic element 61 and the second elastic element 74 work together to cushion the fall, ensuring the refrigerator body 1 falls smoothly. Rotating the screw 11 by the movable rod 12 stabilizes the rotation angle of the slider 3, maintaining the tilt of the refrigerator body 1 for easy cleaning. Rotating the handle 10 makes the slider 3 rotate more effortlessly and stably. The protective sleeve 8 prevents foreign objects from entering and extends the service life of the second elastic element 74. The roller 14 reduces the friction between the slider 3 and the wedge block 6, ensuring the wedge block 6 responds to the sliding motion promptly and preventing the first guide rod 5 from breaking or detaching. The shock-absorbing pad 9 further optimizes the cushioning effect and protects the contact between the refrigerator body 1 and the top plate 72. The auxiliary rod 13 facilitates pulling the first guide rod 5, improving operational convenience.
