Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of refrigerator technology, and in particular to providing an egg storage drawer, a drawer assembly, and a refrigerator. Background Technology

[0002] In some existing refrigerators, there are usually egg racks for storing eggs, or eggs can be placed directly in the crisper drawer. However, when storing eggs in batches, whether using egg racks or crisper drawers, users usually cannot tell which eggs were placed first and which were placed later. They can only take eggs randomly, which means that the eggs stored earlier are often taken last, causing the eggs purchased earlier to expire and spoil, which is not conducive to freshness. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this application is to provide an egg storage drawer, drawer device, and refrigerator, which aims to solve the problem that existing refrigerators cannot take out eggs in the order of their storage time, causing the eggs to expire and spoil.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this application is as follows:

[0005] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide an egg storage drawer for storing eggs; it includes a shell and an egg-dropping structure; a receiving cavity is formed inside the shell; an egg-dropping opening and an egg-retrieving opening communicating with the receiving cavity are respectively formed at the top and bottom of the shell; an inclined bottom wall is formed at the bottom of the receiving cavity, and the egg-retrieving opening is located at the lowest point of the bottom wall; the egg-dropping structure includes a plurality of shelves spaced apart along the height direction in the receiving cavity, each shelf having an inclined surface sloping downwards and a track groove formed on the inclined surface, the track groove extending along the length direction of the inclined surface and used to guide the rolling of the egg.

[0006] The beneficial effects of the egg storage drawer in this application are as follows:

[0007] Each egg will move sequentially and orderly along the layers to the bottom wall, and then along the bottom wall to the egg retrieval port. The eggs stored first will be closer to the egg retrieval port, ensuring that the eggs stored first can be retrieved through the egg retrieval port first, realizing the first-in, first-out principle for eggs.

[0008] Furthermore, by setting track grooves on the inclined surface of the shelf, when the egg lands on the inclined surface with its minor axis aligned with the length of the inclined surface, the egg can roll along the inclined surface, and the bottom of the egg is embedded in the track groove. The track groove can limit the direction of the egg, keeping the egg's minor axis aligned with the length of the inclined surface, resulting in smooth and stable rolling. When the egg lands on the inclined surface with its major axis aligned with the length of the inclined surface, the bottom of the egg is embedded in the track groove, and the two sides of the track groove can provide rolling support for the egg, meaning that the egg will roll downwards along the track groove under the action of gravity. Therefore, in various postures, the track groove can provide rolling support for the egg, allowing the egg to roll smoothly and stably from the inclined surface, improving the reliability of egg landing.

[0009] In some embodiments, a single shelf has a high end and a low end on both sides in the length direction, the shelf has an arc-shaped slope section at the high end, and the receiving cavity has an egg drop opening at the low end of the shelf.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the shelf has an arc-shaped slope at the high end, which can increase the kinetic energy of the egg, increase the rolling inertia of the egg, and provide a cushioning effect for the egg; an opening is set at the low end to ensure that the egg can roll from the shelf to the lower layer, so that the egg falls smoothly.

[0011] In some embodiments, the width of the track groove ranges from 10mm to 40mm.

[0012] If the width of the track groove is too small, it will limit the rolling effect when the long axis of the egg is aligned with the inclined plane; if the width of the track groove is too large, the egg may roll directly to the lower layer or get stuck in the track groove.

[0013] In some embodiments, the housing includes side plates located on both sides of the receiving cavity, and the side plates are provided with a plurality of observation windows.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the storage status of the eggs can be easily observed through the observation window to determine whether replenishment is needed.

[0015] In some embodiments, a gripping portion is provided at the bottom of the front side of the housing, and the gripping portion protrudes upward from the bottom wall.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, users can pull the drawer out using the gripping part, which is convenient; and the gripping part can block the egg on the bottom wall to prevent the egg from falling out.

[0017] In some embodiments, the number of the shelves is two.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, three egg storage layers are formed inside the shell, increasing the number of eggs that can be stored; the bottom wall and each layer can also be used for egg storage.

[0019] Secondly, this application also provides a drawer device, including a drawer frame, a slide rail assembly, and the egg storage drawer; the drawer frame has a front-opening mounting cavity, and the egg storage drawer is pulled out and fitted into the mounting cavity by the slide rail assembly.

[0020] The beneficial effects of the drawer device of this application are as follows: the egg storage drawer is installed in the refrigerator after being assembled with the drawer frame. The egg storage drawer adopts a drawer-type pull-out method, which makes it very convenient to take out and store eggs.

[0021] In some embodiments, the drawer assembly further includes a cover plate rotatably disposed on the drawer frame, the cover plate being flipped to open or cover the egg retrieval opening of the egg storage drawer; and the housing is provided with guide ribs, and the cover plate is provided with protrusions.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, when there is no need to retrieve the egg, the cover can cover the egg retrieval opening, making the drawer device simple and beautiful in structure; when it is necessary to retrieve the egg, simply flip the cover upward to open the egg retrieval opening and retrieve the egg, making egg retrieval convenient and easy.

[0023] In some embodiments, the drawer assembly further includes storage drawers located on both sides of the egg drawer.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the egg storage drawer can be combined with the storage drawer to form a single drawer unit; the egg storage drawer and the storage drawer can be pulled out separately, so that the drawer device can also store eggs and other food ingredients, making the storage function more diverse and not singular.

[0025] Thirdly, another embodiment of this application provides a refrigerator, including a refrigerator liner and the aforementioned drawer device disposed within the refrigerator liner.

[0026] The beneficial effects of the drawer device in this application are as follows: by setting an egg storage drawer in the refrigerator, the eggs stored first can be taken out through the egg retrieval port first, avoiding the eggs from spoiling due to long-term storage, and realizing the first-in, first-out of eggs; and the eggs roll down the egg storage drawer stably and smoothly, improving product reliability.

[0043] The embodiments of this application 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 intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0045] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0046] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0047] In this application, the terms "one embodiment," "some embodiments," "example," "specific example," or "some examples," etc., refer to a specific feature, structure, material, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment or example, which is included in at least one embodiment or example of this application.

Moreover, without contradiction, those skilled in the art can combine and integrate the different embodiments or examples described in this specification, as well as the features of different embodiments or examples.

[0048] For ease of description, unless otherwise specified, the directions of up, down, left, right, front, and back in this article are based on the state of the refrigerator when it is in use. The refrigerator door is the front, the opposite direction is the back, and the vertical direction is the up and down direction.

[0049] Refrigerators typically have egg racks for storing eggs, or eggs can be placed directly in the crisper drawer. However, when storing eggs in batches, whether using egg racks or crisper drawers, users usually cannot determine which eggs were placed first and which were placed later. They can only take eggs randomly, which means that the eggs stored earlier are often taken out last, causing the eggs purchased earlier to expire and spoil, which is not conducive to preservation.

[0050] Based on this, to solve the above problems, this application designs an egg storage drawer. Each egg will move sequentially and orderly along the shelves to the bottom wall, and then along the bottom wall to the retrieval opening. Thus, the first egg stored will be closer to the retrieval opening, ensuring that the first egg stored can be retrieved first, achieving a first-in, first-out (FIFO) system. Furthermore, during the rolling process, the track grooves on the shelves provide rolling support for the eggs in various postures, allowing them to roll smoothly and steadily down the inclined plane 8, improving the reliability of egg placement.

[0051] refer to Figures 1 to 3 This application provides an egg storage drawer 100 for storing eggs; it includes a shell 1 and an egg dropping structure 2. The shell 1 has a receiving cavity 3. The top and bottom of the shell 1 are respectively formed with an egg dropping opening 4 and an egg retrieval opening 5 communicating with the receiving cavity 3. The shell 1 has an inclined bottom wall 6 at the bottom of the receiving cavity 3, and the egg retrieval opening 5 is located at the lowest point of the bottom wall 6. The egg dropping structure 2 includes a number of shelves 7 spaced apart in the receiving cavity 3 along the height direction Y. The shelves 7 have an inclined surface 8 from top to bottom and a track groove 9 formed on the inclined surface 8. The track groove 9 extends along the length direction of the inclined surface 8 and is used to guide the rolling of the egg.

[0052] Specifically, the egg storage drawer 100 of this application is used to store egg products. The specific egg storage process is as follows: the user puts a single egg into the egg drop opening 4, and the egg will roll down the inclined surface 8 on each shelf 7 to the bottom wall 6. Then, the egg will slide further down the bottom wall 6 to the egg retrieval opening 5. Subsequently, for eggs placed one after another, each egg will move sequentially along each shelf 7 to the bottom wall 6, and then along the bottom wall 6 to the egg retrieval opening 5. Thus, the egg placed first will be closer to the egg retrieval opening 5, ensuring that the first egg placed can be retrieved through the egg retrieval opening 5 first, avoiding the eggs from spoiling due to prolonged storage, and realizing the first-in, first-out (FIFO) principle for eggs.

[0053] The number of shelves 7 can be one or more, as long as the egg can roll down the shelves 7 one by one to the bottom wall 6.

[0054] In actual use, a sufficient number of eggs can be stored in the egg storage drawer 100, so that the eggs are arranged in an orderly manner on the bottom wall 6 and each shelf 7. When any number of eggs are taken out from the egg retrieval port 5, the eggs on the bottom wall 6 will roll forward to the egg retrieval port 5, and the corresponding number of eggs on each shelf 7 will roll down in an orderly manner, so that the egg retrieval is orderly.

[0055] Understandably, an egg is typically an ellipsoid with a major axis and a minor axis. When an egg is placed in the egg drop opening 4, the orientation of its major and minor axes as it lands on the inclined plane 8 is not fixed. For example, the major axis of the egg might align with the length of the inclined plane 8. In this case, the egg cannot roll along the inclined plane 8 and can only slide under gravity. The slope of the inclined plane 8 is designed to be relatively gentle to prevent the egg from breaking, thus the egg may remain on the inclined plane 8 without sliding. Alternatively, the minor axis of the egg might align with the length of the inclined plane 8, allowing the egg to roll and slide down. However, during rolling, the egg collides with the inner wall of the shell, causing the direction of its minor axis to constantly change. It may even deflect to align its major axis with the length of the inclined plane 8, consuming its own potential energy and thus affecting its ability to roll down the inclined plane 8.

[0056] This application provides a track groove 9 on the inclined surface 8 of the shelf 7. When the egg lands on the inclined surface 8 with its minor axis aligned with the length of the inclined surface 8, the egg can roll along the inclined surface 8, and its bottom is embedded in the track groove 9. The track groove 9 can limit the direction of the egg, keeping its minor axis aligned with the length of the inclined surface 8, ensuring smooth and stable rolling. When the egg lands on the inclined surface 8 with its major axis aligned with the length of the inclined surface 8, its bottom is embedded in the track groove 9. The two sides of the track groove 9 provide rolling support for the egg, meaning the egg will roll downwards along the track groove 9 under gravity. Therefore, the track groove 9 provides rolling support for the egg in various postures, allowing it to roll smoothly and stably off the inclined surface 8, improving the reliability of the egg's landing.

[0057] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, a single shelf 7 has a high end 701 and a low end 702 on both sides in the length direction; the shelf 7 has an arc slope section 10 at the high end 701, and the receiving cavity 3 forms an opening 12 at the low end 702 of the shelf 7.

[0058] Specifically, the shelf 7 is inclined from top to bottom, and the egg rolls from the high end 701 to the low end 702 of the shelf 7, allowing the egg to roll down the inclined plane 8 under the action of gravity. An arc-shaped ramp 10 is provided at the high end 701 of the shelf 7. When the egg falls, it rolls through the ramp 10 onto the inclined plane 8, thereby increasing the egg's kinetic energy and rolling inertia. This ensures that once the egg enters the inclined plane 8, it can roll smoothly along the track groove 9 regardless of the direction of its minor axis. Furthermore, the arc-shaped ramp 10 provides good cushioning for the egg, preventing it from breaking during the fall. An opening 12 is provided at the low end 702 of the shelf 7 to ensure that the egg can roll from the shelf 7 to the lower layer, facilitating a smooth egg drop.

[0059] In one example, there is one shelf 7. The egg is placed from the egg drop opening 4 and falls into the arc slope section 10. It then rolls down the track groove 9 on the inclined surface 8, then rolls through the opening 12 to the bottom wall 6, and finally rolls along the bottom wall 6 to the egg retrieval opening 5.

[0060] In another example, there are two shelves 7. Each shelf 7 has an arc-shaped ramp 10 and an opening 12 at its high end 701 and low end 702, respectively. The egg placed from the egg drop opening 4 falls into the arc-shaped ramp 10 of the upper shelf 7 and rolls down along the track groove 9 on the inclined surface 8. After passing through the opening 12, it rolls down to the arc-shaped ramp 10 of the lower shelf 7 and continues to roll down along the track groove 9 on the inclined surface 8. After passing through the opening 12, it rolls down to the bottom wall 6. Finally, the egg rolls along the bottom wall 6 to the egg retrieval opening 5.

[0061] In some embodiments, the width of the track groove 9 ranges from 10mm to 40mm.

[0062] Understandably, the egg drawer 100 of this application is used to store eggs. A normal egg's length ranges from 35mm to 45mm along its minor axis and from 50mm to 60mm along its major axis. If the width of the track groove 9 is too large, when the egg's minor axis aligns with the length direction of the inclined plane 8, the egg may get stuck in the track groove 9 and stop rolling; when the egg's major axis aligns with the length direction of the inclined plane 8, the egg may roll directly to the lower shelf. If the width of the track groove 9 is too small, when the egg's major axis aligns with the length direction of the inclined plane 8, it will restrict the egg's rolling effect, causing the egg to stop on the inclined plane 8. Therefore, setting the width of the track groove 9 to an appropriate size ensures that the egg rolls downwards along the track groove 9 in any posture, guaranteeing product reliability.

[0063] Specifically, the width of the track groove 9 can be set to any value among 10mm, 15mm, 20mm, 25mm, 30mm, 35mm, and 40mm; preferably, the width of the track groove 9 is set to 22mm.

[0064] In some embodiments, the housing 1 includes side plates 101 located on both sides of the receiving cavity 3, and the side plates 101 are provided with a plurality of observation windows 11.

[0065] Specifically, an observation window 11 is provided on the side panel 101, allowing users to visually observe the number of eggs stored inside the shell 1 from the side and determine whether to replenish the eggs. Multiple observation windows 11 are spaced apart along the height, ensuring that the egg storage conditions on the bottom wall 6 and on each shelf 7 can be observed.

[0066] In some embodiments, the observation window 11 allows the user's finger to pass through. When the egg gets stuck inside the shell 1 and does not roll down, the user can directly insert their finger into the corresponding receiving cavity 3 to push the egg downwards.

[0067] refer to Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments, a gripping part 13 is provided at the bottom of the front side of the housing 1, and the gripping part 13 protrudes upward from the bottom wall 6.

[0068] Understandably, a gripping part 13 is provided at the bottom of the front side of the casing 1, allowing the user to easily hold the gripping part 13 to control the pulling out of the egg storage drawer 100, making it effortless and easy to use. (Reference) Figure 3 The gripping part 13 protrudes upward from the bottom wall 6, and can also block the egg on the bottom wall 6, preventing the egg from rolling off the bottom wall 6. The structure is cleverly designed. The gripping part 13 can be, but is not limited to, a "U"-shaped or "L"-shaped handle, as long as it is convenient for the user to grip.

[0069] Specifically, the egg retrieval opening 5 is formed above the gripping part 13, and the user can retrieve the egg body located at the front end of the bottom wall 6, which is blocked by the gripping part 13, from the egg retrieval opening 5.

[0070] refer to Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments, the number of layers 7 is two.

[0071] The bottom wall 6 and each layer 7 can be used to store eggs, forming three egg storage layers inside the shell 1, thus increasing the number of eggs stored.

[0072] refer to Figures 4 to 7 The second aspect of this application also provides a drawer device 200, including a drawer frame 210, a slide rail assembly 15, and an egg storage drawer 100 as described above; the drawer frame 210 has a mounting cavity 16 with a front opening, and the egg storage drawer 100 is pulled out and fitted into the mounting cavity 16 by the slide rail assembly 15.

[0073] Understandably, the egg storage drawer 100 can be inserted into the mounting cavity 16 through the front opening of the mounting cavity 16. The egg retrieval port 5 of the egg storage drawer 100 protrudes from the front of the housing 1. After the egg storage drawer 100 is installed in the mounting cavity 16, the user can retrieve the egg from the front of the drawer assembly 200. Furthermore, after the egg storage drawer 100 is assembled with the drawer frame 210, it is used to install inside the refrigerator. The egg storage drawer 100 adopts a drawer-type pull-out operation, making it very convenient to retrieve and store eggs.

[0074] Specifically, the slide rail assembly 15 includes a positioning slide rail 151 provided on the inner side wall of the mounting cavity 16 and a movable slide rail 152 provided on the outer side wall of the housing 1 of the egg storage drawer 100. The slide rail assembly 15 can be smoothly pulled out and slid relative to the drawer frame 210 in the front-back direction.

[0075] refer to Figures 4 to 6 In some embodiments, the drawer device 200 further includes a cover plate 14 rotatably mounted on the drawer frame 210, which flips to open or cover the egg retrieval opening 5; and the cover plate 14 is provided with protrusions 17, and the shell 1 of the egg storage drawer 100 is provided with guide ribs 18.

[0076] Understandably, when there is no need to retrieve the eggs, the cover plate 14 can cover the egg retrieval opening 5, making the drawer device 200 simple and beautiful in structure; when it is necessary to retrieve the eggs, simply flip the cover plate 14 upwards to open the egg retrieval opening 5 and retrieve the eggs, making egg retrieval convenient and easy.

[0077] Specifically, the protrusion 17 on the cover plate 14 is used to abut against the guide rib 18 on the housing 1. When the user pulls the egg storage drawer 100 forward to replenish the eggs, the protrusion 17 will move along the guide rib 18 to drive the cover plate 14 to flip upward on its own to avoid the movement of the egg storage drawer 100, so that the egg storage drawer 100 can be smoothly pulled out of the mounting cavity 16.

[0078] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the drawer device 200 further includes storage drawers 220 disposed on both sides of the egg storage drawer 100.

[0079] Understandably, the egg storage drawer 100 can be combined with the storage drawer 220 to form a single drawer unit; both the egg storage drawer 100 and the storage drawer 220 can be pulled out independently, allowing the drawer unit 200 to store eggs and other food items, thus enriching its storage functions. In other words, the egg storage drawer 100 can be used in combination with existing drawers in the refrigerator, making it more versatile.

[0080] A third aspect of this application also provides a refrigerator, which includes a refrigerator liner (not shown) and a drawer assembly 200 disposed within the refrigerator liner.

[0081] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
