[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the present invention has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art. Of course, any product implementing the present invention does not necessarily need to achieve all of the following advantages at the same time:
[0014] 1. The glass door for the freezer is made of two tempered glass pieces to form a double-layer glass. The central cavity serves as a transition area to reduce the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the glass, making it less likely for water droplets to condense on the glass surface. The sensor patch can measure the glass temperature, and the cavity temperature can be artificially increased by heating with an electric heating wire, further reducing the possibility of water droplet formation, keeping the glass clear and maintaining the overall visual effect.
[0015] 2. The glass door used for the freezer is assembled by connecting the vertical and horizontal frames with corner fittings and screws. The two tempered glass pieces are inserted into the corresponding mounting slots and fixed with glue. The overall installation process is simple and quick, and replacement and maintenance are also more convenient. The protective structures such as rubber strips, protective pads and anti-collision pads make the tempered glass less prone to breakage during use, thereby extending the service life of the cabinet door.

Detailed Implementation
[0027] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0028] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, this embodiment provides a refrigerator glass door, including: a vertical frame 1 and a horizontal frame 2.
[0029] like Figure 1-5As shown, in this embodiment, the vertical frame 1 has a mounting groove 101 inside, and the horizontal frame 2 has a mounting groove 201 inside. The vertical frame 1 and the horizontal frame 2 are connected at one end by a connecting corner piece 3. The surface of the connecting corner piece 3 has a right-angle groove 302. Fixing screws 301 are rotatably installed at both ends of the connecting corner piece 3. Tempered glass 4 is inserted into the mounting groove 101 and the mounting groove 201. Two grooves are provided at corresponding positions in both the mounting groove 101 and the mounting groove 201. The connecting corner piece 3 is triangular, with the two right-angled grooves respectively fitting against the vertical frame 1 and the horizontal frame 2, allowing the vertical frame 1 and the horizontal frame 2 to be installed vertically. The two vertical frames 1 and the two horizontal frames 2 are placed parallel to each other, and the four corners are connected by the connecting corner piece 3 to form a rectangular frame. Threaded holes are provided at both ends of the vertical frame 1 and the horizontal frame 2. Fixing screws 301 pass through the connecting corner piece 3 and are screwed into the threaded holes to fix the connecting corner piece 3 and the vertical frame 1. The short side of the tempered glass 4 is inserted into the mounting groove 201. The long side is inserted into the mounting groove 101, and the direct part is attached to the direct groove 302. First, the tempered glass 4 is inserted and then attached to the corresponding mounting groove 101 to install the vertical frame 1. The connecting corner piece 3 is installed by fixing screw 301 to fix the vertical frame 1 and the horizontal frame 2 to each other. The two mounting grooves 101 on the corresponding single vertical frame 1 are both inserted into the tempered glass 4. The two mounting grooves 201 on the single horizontal frame 2 are similarly inserted. This makes the two tempered glass 4 of the cabinet door after installation a double layer of glass with air in the middle. When in use, the temperature of the inner and outer tempered glass 4 will be significantly different. The inner tempered glass 4 is closer to the inside of the freezer and has a lower temperature, while the outer tempered glass 4 is closer to the outside environment and has a higher temperature. The middle cavity acts as a buffer between the two, which reduces the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the single tempered glass 4. Moisture in the outside air is not easy to condense, so it is difficult to form water droplets on the surface of the tempered glass 4, thus greatly reducing the possibility of water mist.
[0030] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown in Figure 4, in this embodiment, a battery box 501 is installed inside the center of the vertical frame 1. Electric heating wires 5 are arranged at both ends of the battery box 501 between the mounting grooves 101. A battery 502 is installed inside the battery box 501. A cover 503 is installed on the outside of the vertical frame 1, attached to the battery box 501. The electric heating wire 5 is attached to the inside of one side of the vertical frame 1. The battery 502 inside the battery box 501 supplies power to the electric heating wire 5. When the temperature difference between the inside and outside is large, the temperature of the middle cavity is still large compared with the outside temperature. Water vapor may still be generated in the outer tempered glass 4. At this time, the air in the cavity is heated by the electric heating wire 5 to raise its temperature, thereby manually shortening the temperature difference between the middle layer and the outside. This reduces the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the outer tempered glass 4 and eliminates the water vapor. Since the middle layer is a closed space and the space is small, the water vapor in the air is limited. Therefore, water vapor is not easily generated on the surface of the inner tempered glass 4 when the temperature difference between the inside and outside is large, thus reducing the possibility of water vapor being generated overall.
[0031] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown in Figure 4, a temperature sensor 504 is installed inside the battery box 501 on top of the battery 502 in this embodiment. A sensing patch 505 is attached to the tempered glass 4 outside the battery box 501. The sensing patch 505 is attached to the inside of the two tempered glass 4 during cabinet door installation. The temperature sensor 504 is connected to monitor the temperature of the tempered glass 4. When the temperature difference between the two tempered glass 4 is large, the temperature sensor 504 connects to the battery 502 to supply power to the electric heating wire 5. The electric heating wire 5 starts heating to eliminate water vapor. Under normal conditions, the electric heating wire 5 is turned off to maintain the power of the battery 502, making the cabinet door more environmentally friendly and durable. At the same time, the temperature sensor 504 is equipped with a wireless connection module. The operator can connect to the temperature sensor 504 with other tools such as mobile phones and computers to manually turn on the switch to heat, making the operation more flexible.
[0032] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the tempered glass 4 is fitted with adhesive strips 7 around the edges of mounting groove 101 and mounting groove 201, and anti-collision pads 9 are provided on the back of the vertical frame 1 and the horizontal frame 2. After installation, the tempered glass 4 needs to be glued to the outward-facing and mounting groove inlay positions to prevent the tempered glass 4 from shaking. The anti-collision pads 9 need to be installed on the side of the cabinet door facing the freezer to reduce the impact when the cabinet door is closed, thus protecting the tempered glass 4 and making it more stable to avoid breakage.
[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, a handle 6 is provided on the front of the vertical frame 1 near the cover 503 in this embodiment; the operator opens the cabinet door by holding the handle 6, and pushes or rotates it open according to the actual installation method of the cabinet door. When rotated open, the cover 503 is away from the hinge side, which makes it more convenient to remove the cover 503 and replace the battery 502.
[0034] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the outer protective pads 8 are provided on the outside of the vertical frame 1 and the horizontal frame 2 in this embodiment; the outer protective pads 8 protect the cabinet door from being bumped by the bottom wall or other objects during the transfer process before installation, and also prevent the edge of the cabinet door from hitting other objects during the opening process, causing damage to the corners of the cabinet door.
[0035] Working principle: The vertical frame 1 and the horizontal frame 2 are connected by a corner bracket 3 attached to one end and locked with a fixing screw 301. The two mounting slots and the right-angle slot 302 are attached, and two pieces of tempered glass 4 are inserted in sequence. At the same time, a sensor patch 505 is attached to the inside of the tempered glass 4. After the whole installation is completed, the interlayer between the two tempered glass 4s isolates and buffers the temperature, reduces the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the tempered glass 4, and prevents water vapor from forming on the surface of the tempered glass 4. In addition, when the sensor patch 505 detects a large temperature difference between the inside and outside of the tempered glass 4, the temperature sensor 504 connects the battery 502 and the electric heating wire 5, and the electric heating wire 5 heats the internal cavity to prevent water vapor from forming on the surface of the external tempered glass 4. The overall waterproof and fog-proof effect of the cabinet door is better.
