Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to refrigerator door seal technical field especially relates to a prevent other door seal's oil-free double door seal structure. BACKGROUND

[0002] The refrigerator door seal is the core component of the refrigerator sealing system, and its core function is to tightly adhere to the cabinet through elastic deformation to block the exchange of air inside and outside, thereby maintaining the temperature stability of the refrigerator / freezer room and reducing energy consumption. However, in long-term use, the door seal faces the following technical challenges:

[0003] ①Friction and wear: frequent opening and closing of the door causes the sealing strip to directly rub against the metal / plastic surface of the cabinet, which may accelerate material wear and damage the sealing performance.

[0004] ②Other door seal phenomenon: when the door is opened and closed, the distance between the pivot side of the door and the cabinet will further decrease, thereby pressing the door seal strip, which is prone to interfere with the cabinet and cause the other door seal phenomenon. The other door seal phenomenon directly affects the sealing performance of the refrigerator, causing the leakage of cold air inside the cabinet and the invasion of hot air, reducing the refrigeration effect, increasing energy consumption, aggravating condensation and frosting in the refrigerator, and breeding mold in a humid environment.
