Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of decorative strip technology, and in particular to a fully embedded magnetic co-extruded decorative strip for refrigerator cabinets. Background Technology

[0002] As home design moves towards high-end and integrated styles, fully built-in refrigerators have become a mainstream choice for modern consumers due to their seamless integration with custom cabinets. However, in actual installation and long-term use, due to cabinet processing errors, uneven walls, or deformation from prolonged use, dynamic gaps of 1-5mm can easily form between the refrigerator and the cabinet, becoming channels for dust and debris to enter, affecting the refrigerator's heat dissipation and hygiene. To solve these problems, a sealing decorative strip can be installed between the refrigerator and the cabinet. However, current magnetic sealing strips mostly use an "independent magnetic strip + adhesive outer layer" method, which has problems such as easy magnet detachment and interface aging and delamination. The magnetic strip only provides adsorption force and lacks elastic deformation capability, failing to simultaneously meet the requirements of tight fit and dynamic gap filling. Based on this, this utility model proposes a magnetic co-extruded decorative strip for the fully built-in refrigerator cabinet. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a fully embedded magnetic co-extruded decorative strip for refrigerator cabinets, thereby solving the aforementioned problems.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] This utility model discloses a fully embedded refrigerator cabinet magnetic co-extruded decorative strip, comprising a decorative strip disposed between the cabinet and the refrigerator. The decorative strip includes an integrally formed sealing part one, sealing part two, connecting rib, magnetic cavity, and magnetic strip. The sealing part one and sealing part two form a bent structure with an obtuse angle. The connecting rib is located on the back side away from the bend of the sealing part one and sealing part two. The other end of the connecting rib is connected to the magnetic cavity, and the magnetic strip is located inside the magnetic cavity.

[0006] Furthermore, the sealing part one, sealing part two, connecting rib and magnetic cavity are all made of high resilience material.

[0007] Furthermore, the high resilience material is TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) or TPV (thermoplastic vulcanizate).

[0008] Furthermore, the length of the first sealing part is greater than the length of the second sealing part.

[0009] Furthermore, the first sealing part abuts against the cabinet, and the second sealing part abuts against the refrigerator.

[0010] Furthermore, the outer wall of the magnetic cavity abuts against the cabinet and the refrigerator, respectively.

[0011] Furthermore, the sealing part one, sealing part two, connecting rib, magnetic cavity and magnetic strip are co-extruded and integrally formed using a co-extruder.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial technical effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] This utility model of a fully embedded refrigerator cabinet magnetic co-extruded decorative strip integrates a highly elastic sealing main layer with a magnetic strip through integral extrusion molding, achieving molecular-level bonding at the "magnetic-plastic" interface. This eliminates the risk of delamination, achieves synergistic effects of magnetic attraction and sealing force, and reduces the use of adhesives, making it environmentally friendly. It solves the sealing and dustproofing problem of fully embedded home appliances, promoting high-end customized home furnishings towards "zero-defect sealing," and enables customized color matching, perfectly integrating into the cabinet appearance for ultimate concealment. It also features adaptive deformation, utilizing the magnetism of the magnetic strip to actively attract the refrigerator's metal outer shell, achieving a tight fit without additional pressure.

[0021] like Figure 1-4As shown, a fully embedded refrigerator cabinet magnetic co-extruded decorative strip includes a decorative strip 3 set between the cabinet 1 and the refrigerator 2. This strip protects the connection between the refrigerator 2 and the cabinet 1, preventing wear and scratches caused by frequent opening and closing of the refrigerator door and collisions during daily use, thus extending the service life of both the refrigerator and the cabinet 1. Furthermore, it allows for a seamless integration of the refrigerator 2 and the cabinet 1 in appearance, creating a more unified and harmonious overall kitchen style, resulting in a clean and smooth visual effect that aligns with the modern trend of integrated home design. The strip can also be produced in various colors, textures, and styles to meet the needs of different home decoration styles, adding personalization and a sense of fashion to the kitchen.

[0022] The decorative strip 3 includes an integrally formed sealing part 301, a second sealing part 302, a connecting rib 303, a magnetic cavity 304, and a magnetic strip 305. The first sealing part 301 and the second sealing part 302 form a bent structure with an obtuse angle, providing a certain degree of cushioning and shock absorption, reducing noise generated by refrigerator vibration transmitted to the cabinet 1, and also reducing damage to the connection between the refrigerator 2 and the cabinet 1 caused by vibration. The first sealing part 301 rests against the cabinet 1, and the second sealing part 302 rests against the refrigerator 2, effectively preventing dust and moisture from entering the gap between the refrigerator 2 and the cabinet 1, avoiding problems such as dust accumulation affecting aesthetics, and moisture intrusion causing the cabinet 1 to become damp and deformed, or refrigerator parts to rust.

[0023] The connecting rib 303 is located on the back side away from the bends of the first sealing part 301 and the second sealing part 302. The other end of the connecting rib 303 is connected to the magnetic cavity 304, and the magnetic strip 305 is located inside the magnetic cavity 304. The outer walls of the magnetic cavity 304 abut against the cabinet 1 and the refrigerator 2, respectively. The first sealing part 301, the second sealing part 302, the connecting rib 303, the magnetic cavity 304, and the magnetic strip 305 are co-extruded and integrally formed using a co-extruder. The co-extruder achieves co-extrusion molding of magnetic materials and plastics, such as... Figure 4 As shown, after preheating, the magnetic strip 305 is integrally extruded with the highly elastic sealing body layer. After cooling, a magnetic-plastic co-extruded decorative strip is obtained, which is then cut according to the length of use. The process of integrally molding the magnetic strip 305 with the magnetic cavity 304 achieves molecular-level bonding at the "magnetic-plastic" interface, eliminating the risk of delamination, realizing the synergistic effect of magnetic attraction and sealing force, and reducing the use of adhesives, making it green and environmentally friendly.

[0024] The sealing part 301, sealing part 302, connecting rib 303, and magnetic cavity 304 are all made of high-resilience materials, such as TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) and TPV (thermoplastic vulcanizate). TPE materials with a Shore hardness between 0 and 100 generally have good elasticity and resilience, and can quickly return to their original shape after being subjected to force. The cross-linked structure of TPV materials enables them to maintain elasticity while having high tensile strength and tear strength, good resilience, and excellent performance in dynamic mechanical properties.

[0025] The length of the sealing part 301 is greater than the length of the sealing part 302, specifically:

[0026] 1) Adaptable to different structures and installation requirements

[0027] Refrigerator 2 and cabinet 1 differ in structure and materials. Refrigerators typically have a metal casing with an insulation layer and a relatively smooth surface; cabinet 1, on the other hand, is mostly made of wood, which may have some thickness tolerance and surface unevenness. Sealing part 1 (301) rests against cabinet 1, better adapting to any unevenness and filling gaps through its elastic deformation to ensure a seal. Sealing part 2 (302) rests against the refrigerator, fitting tightly to its surface without affecting its appearance or heat dissipation, achieving a seal. Furthermore, during installation, the gap between refrigerator 2 and cabinet 1 may not be perfectly uniform. Sealing part 1 (301) has better flexibility and adaptability, allowing for adjustments within a wider range to compensate for these gap variations; sealing part 2 (302) fits refrigerator 2 more precisely, preventing wrinkles or aesthetic issues caused by excessive length.

[0028] 2) Optimize sealing and cushioning effects

[0029] When the first sealing part 301 comes into contact with the cabinet 1, it provides a wider sealing coverage area, effectively preventing dust, moisture, and odors from entering the gap between the refrigerator 2 and the cabinet 1 from the side of the cabinet 1. At the same time, it can buffer the impact force on the cabinet 1 when the refrigerator door is opened and closed to a certain extent, reducing wear and tear on the cabinet 1. The second sealing part 302 mainly functions to make close contact with the refrigerator 2, forming a good seal, preventing outside air from entering the space around the refrigerator 2, reducing the loss of cold air from the refrigerator 2, improving the energy efficiency of the refrigerator 2, and the shorter design of the second sealing part 302 can better conform to the shape of the refrigerator 2, avoiding obstruction of the heat dissipation of the refrigerator 2.

[0030] 3) Enhance aesthetics and harmony

[0031] The varying lengths of the decorative strips create a more layered and three-dimensional visual effect, complementing the combination of refrigerator 2 and cabinet 1 and enhancing the overall aesthetics. Sealing part 1 301 can conceal any imperfections between cabinet 1 and decorative strip 3, while sealing part 2 302 seamlessly integrates with refrigerator 2, making the overall appearance of decorative strip 3 more refined and harmonious, achieving the desired aesthetic effect for a fully integrated refrigerator.

[0032] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model. Various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present utility model by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present utility model should fall within the protection scope defined by the claims of the present utility model.
