[0049] This application provides a drawer structure that can be used in a refrigerator to improve the preservation of food inside the drawer. The following description is in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0050] In the embodiments of this application, such as Figures 1 to 8 As shown, a drawer structure 1 is used in a refrigerator 100. The drawer structure 1 includes a drawer body 11, a partition 12, and a sealing cover 13. The top of the drawer body 11 has a first opening. The partition 12 is used to enclose the inner liner of the refrigerator 100 to form a space for the drawer body 11 to be pushed and pulled. The sealing cover 13 has a first side plate 131 and a second side plate 132 arranged opposite to each other in the X direction. The first side plate 131 is movably connected to the partition 12, and the second side plate 132 is movably connected to the inner liner of the refrigerator 100.

[0051] When the drawer body 11 is closed, the first side panel 131 is disconnected from the partition 12 and the second side panel 132 is disconnected from the inner liner of the refrigerator 100. The sealing cover 13, under its own weight, covers the first opening, thus isolating the airflow between the internal space of the drawer body 11 and the compartments of the refrigerator 100, thereby reducing moisture loss from the food inside the drawer body 11 and improving the food preservation effect. When the drawer body 11 is fully open, the first side panel 131 is connected to the partition 12, and the second side panel 132 is connected to the inner liner of the refrigerator 100.

[0052] In some embodiments of this application, see further reference. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 9 One of the partition 12 and the first side plate 131 is provided with or connected to a first slot 121, and the other is provided with or connected to a first protrusion 1311, which is movably engaged with the first slot 121. The number of first protrusions 1311 can be one or more, and correspondingly, the number of first slots 121 can also be one or more, with the number of first protrusions 1311 being the same as the number of first slots 121.

[0053] In some embodiments of this application, one of the second side panel 132 and the inner liner of the refrigerator 100 is provided with or connected to a second slot 21, and the other is provided with or connected to a second protrusion 1321, the second protrusion 1321 being movably engaged with the second slot 21. The number of second protrusions 1321 can be one or more, and correspondingly, the number of second slots 21 can also be one or more, with the number of second protrusions 1321 being the same as the number of second slots 21.

[0054] It should be noted that the structure of the first protrusion 1311 and the structure of the second protrusion 1321 may be the same or different. The first protrusion 1311 and the second protrusion 1321 may be independently a claw, a protrusion, a boss, or a buckle, respectively. For example, the first protrusion 1311 and the second protrusion 1321 may be claw structures. The structure of the first slot 121 and the structure of the second slot 21 may be the same or different.

[0055] In some embodiments of this application, see further reference. Figure 1 and Figure 4The partition 12 is provided with or connected to a first slot 121, and the first side plate 131 is provided with or connected to a first protrusion 1311. The first slot 121 includes a slot bottom 1211, a first wall 1212, a second wall 1213, and a guide inclined wall 1214. The first wall 1212 and the second wall 1213 are disposed opposite to each other in the Z direction at the slot bottom 1211. The height of the second wall 1213 in the Y direction is less than the height of the first wall 1212 in the Y direction. The top wall of the partition 12 is located above the slot bottom 1211. The first wall 1212 connects the slot bottom 1211 and the top wall of the partition 12. The guide inclined wall 1214 connects the second wall 1213 and the top wall of the partition 12. The ends of the first wall 1212 and the guide inclined wall 1214 connected to the top wall are disposed opposite to each other in the Z direction on both sides of the second wall 1213.

[0056] The height of the second wall 1213 in the Y direction refers to the straight-line distance between the two farthest points on the outer perimeter of the second wall 1213, and the straight line connecting these two points is parallel to the Y direction; similarly, the height of the first wall 1212 in the Y direction refers to the straight-line distance between the two farthest points on the outer perimeter of the first wall 1212, and the straight line connecting these two points is parallel to the Y direction. Understandably, when the fully opened drawer body 11 is closed, the sealing cover 13 is lifted by the drawer body 11, and the first protrusion 1311 is suspended directly above the groove bottom 1211. If the force used to close the drawer body 11 is too great, the first protrusion 1311 may deviate from directly above the groove bottom 1211, for example, deviating onto the guide slope 1214. When the drawer body 11 is opened, based on the guiding effect of the guide slope 1214, it can be ensured that the first protrusion 1311 falls back into the sub-groove formed by the groove bottom 1211, the first wall 1212, and the second wall 1213 for locking and fixing. When the inner liner of the refrigerator 100 is provided with a second slot 21 and the second side panel 132 is provided with a second protrusion 1321, the structure of the second slot 21 can be the same as the structure of the aforementioned first slot 121.

[0057] To further improve the sealing performance of the sealing cap 13 to the first opening, further reference is made to some embodiments of this application. Figures 1 to 4 as well as Figure 9 The sealing cover 13 includes a cover body and a folded edge portion 133. The first side plate 131 and the second side plate 132 are two side walls of the cover body arranged opposite each other along the X direction. The folded edge portion 133 surrounds the lower edge of the cover body. It should be noted that when the first side plate 131 is connected to the first slot 121 or the first protrusion 1311, the first slot 121 or the first protrusion 1311 can be provided on the folded edge portion 133; similarly, when the second side plate 132 is connected to the second slot 21 or the second protrusion 1321, the second slot 21 or the second protrusion 1321 can also be provided on the folded edge portion 133.

[0058] In some embodiments of this application, see further reference. Figures 1 to 4 as well as Figure 9 The drawer body 11 includes a third side plate 111 and a fourth side plate 112 arranged opposite to each other along the X direction. The third side plate 111 is slidably connected to the partition 12, and the fourth side plate 112 is slidably connected to the inner liner of the refrigerator 100. It can be understood that when the drawer body 11 is in the closed state, the third side plate 111 is correspondingly arranged with the first side plate 131, and the fourth side plate 112 is correspondingly arranged with the second side plate 132.

[0059] In some embodiments of this application, see further reference. Figures 1 to 4 as well as Figure 9 The third side panel 111 and the fourth side panel 112 are respectively provided with guide rail assemblies 14. The guide rail assembly 14 includes a guide rail body 141 and a first roller 142. The guide rail body 141 includes a first end and a second end that are arranged opposite to each other along the Z direction. The first roller 142 is located in the slide groove 15. The partition 12 and the inner liner of the refrigerator 100 are respectively provided with slide groove 15 and a second roller 16. The second roller 16 is located on the side of the groove opening of the slide groove 15 away from the bottom of the groove 15. The edge of the guide rail body 141 has an arc-shaped segment 1411 that abuts against the second roller 16 to limit the drawer body 11 in the Z direction. The first end is closer to the arc-shaped segment 1411 than the second end.

[0060] Understandably, when the drawer body 11 is assembled into the partition 12 and the inner liner of the refrigerator 100, the first roller 142 is engaged in the slide groove 15 via the groove opening of the slide groove 15. The drawer body 11 is pushed and pulled by the sliding of the first roller 142 in the slide groove 15. Specifically, when the drawer body 11 is changed from the open state to the closed state, the first roller 142 slides along the groove opening of the slide groove 15 towards the bottom of the slide groove 15 until the second roller 16 abuts against the arc segment 1411; when the drawer body 11 is changed from the closed state to the open state, the first roller 142 slides along the bottom of the slide groove 15 towards the groove opening of the slide groove 15. In order to prevent the drawer body 11 from being easily pulled out of the refrigerator 100, the front projection of the first roller 142 on the third side panel 111 or the fourth side panel 112 overlaps with the front projection of the second roller 16 on the third side panel 111 or the fourth side panel 112.

[0061] In some embodiments of this application, the height of the drawer body 11 gradually decreases in the Y direction along the Z direction; in other words, the drawer body 11 adopts a structure with a low front end and a high rear end. When assembling the drawer body 11, the front end of the drawer body 11 may lift upwards and easily interfere with the components above. The structure of the drawer body 11 with a low front end and a high rear end avoids interference, thus facilitating the assembly of the drawer body 11. Furthermore, the structure of the drawer body 11 with a low front end and a high rear end allows for a better fit between the drawer body 11 and the sealing cover 13. It is understood that the top walls of the third side panel 111 and the fourth side panel 112 are inclined walls extending downwards, and the bottom of the sealing cover 13 has an inclination that matches the inclined walls, so that the drawer body 11 and the sealing cover 13 fit tightly when the drawer body 11 is closed. The front end of the drawer body 11 refers to the end that first enters the refrigerator compartment when assembling the drawer body 11; the rear end of the drawer body 11 refers to the end that is opposite to the front end in the Z direction.

[0062] Different types of food have different humidity requirements for storage environments. For example, dried fruits need to be stored in a lower humidity environment, while vegetables need to be stored in a higher humidity environment. Therefore, in order to meet users' diverse food storage needs, further reference will be made to some embodiments of this application. Figures 1 to 7 The drawer structure 1 also includes a humidity regulating component disposed on the drawer body 11. The drawer body 11 has a first through hole 113. The humidity regulating component includes a humidity regulating lever 171, which has multiple vent holes 172. The humidity regulating lever 171 is disposed on the inner wall of the drawer body 11, and part of the humidity regulating lever 171 protrudes from the first through hole 113. By moving the humidity regulating lever 171, the number of vent holes 172 protruding from the first through hole 113 can be adjusted, thereby achieving the purpose of regulating the humidity inside the drawer body 11. It can be understood that the more vent holes 172 protruding from the first through hole 113, the larger the ventilation area, the better the air circulation between the inside of the drawer body 11 and the refrigerator compartment, and the lower the humidity inside the drawer body 11.

[0063] In some embodiments of this application, see further reference. Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figures 5 to 7The humidity control lever 171 includes a shielding area and a ventilated area arranged side by side along the X direction. Multiple vents 172 are distributed in the ventilated area, while the shielding area has no vents 172. The humidity control assembly also includes an actuating element 175, which is disposed on the humidity control lever 171 and passes through a first through-hole 113. At least a portion of the humidity control lever 171 extends through the first through-hole 113 and is located outside the drawer body 11. The shielding area and the ventilated area are located on opposite sides of the actuating element 175, which may be located, for example, in the middle of the humidity control lever 171. The actuating element 175 may be cylindrical, spherical, or prismatic. The first through-hole 113 may be strip-shaped. The actuating element 175 can move within the first through-hole 113 along the X direction or in the opposite direction to the X direction, thereby adjusting the number of vents 172 exposed from the first through-hole 113.

[0064] In some embodiments of this application, see further reference. Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figures 5 to 7 The inner wall of the drawer body 11 is also provided with a flange 114 and a limiting groove 115. The edge of the humidity regulating lever 171 is provided with a serrated structure 174. The serrated structure 174 and the limiting groove 115 are arranged opposite to each other on both sides of the flange 114 in the Y direction. The flange 114 is provided with a second through hole 1141. The humidity regulating component also includes a spring lever 173. The spring lever 173 passes through the second through hole 1141, and part of the spring lever 173 abuts against the serrated structure 174. Part of the spring lever 173 is located in the limiting groove 115. When the humidity regulating lever 171 is stopped, part of the spring lever 173 abuts against the recess of the serrated structure 174. It should be noted that the sawtooth structure 174 is, for example, a continuous wave structure; the number of flanges 114 can be one or more, the number of limiting grooves 115 can be one or more, and the number of flanges 114 and the number of limiting grooves 115 can be equal or unequal.

[0065] When assembling the spring lever 173, the spring lever 173 can be pinched and inserted into the second through hole 1141, after which the spring lever 173 will naturally spring back. When the humidity control lever 171 is turned, the serrated structure 174 will cause the spring lever 173 to continuously deform and spring back; when the humidity control lever 171 is stopped, the spring lever 173 springs back, and part of the spring lever 173 abuts against the recess of the serrated structure 174, thereby limiting the humidity control lever 171.

[0066] In some embodiments of this application, at least one latch 18 is provided on the inner wall of the drawer body 11, and the humidity control lever 171 is engaged with the latch 18.

[0067] In some embodiments of this application, the inner wall of the drawer body 11 is provided with two rows of latches 18, each row having one or more latches 18. When each row has multiple latches 18, the multiple latches 18 are arranged sequentially at intervals. The two rows of latches 18 are arranged opposite each other along the Y direction, and the humidity control lever 171 is engaged between the two rows of latches 18. There are multiple flanges 114 and one limiting groove 115. A flange 114 is provided between two adjacent latches 18, thereby forming a groove for the humidity control lever 171 to move. This limiting groove 115 can be provided at the position of any one of the multiple flanges 114, for example, at the lower edge of the shielding area.

[0068] In some embodiments of this application, the drawer body 11 includes a drawer front cover 116 and a back panel 117 disposed opposite to each other along the Z direction. The drawer front cover 116 is the rear end of the drawer body 11, and the back panel 117 is the front end of the drawer body 11. A humidity regulating component is disposed on the drawer front cover 116, for example, on the inner wall of the drawer front cover 116. It is understood that the aforementioned first through hole 113, flange 114, and limiting groove 115 are disposed on the inner wall of the drawer front cover 116.

[0069] This application embodiment also provides a refrigerator 100, which includes, but is not limited to, a single-door refrigerator, a double-door refrigerator, a side-by-side refrigerator, a T-type three-door refrigerator, a French door refrigerator, or a French multi-door refrigerator. Figures 1 to 10 As shown, the refrigerator 100 includes a drawer structure 1 and a storage compartment 2. The specific structure of the drawer structure 1 is as described in the above embodiments. A partition 12 and a sealing cover 13 are respectively disposed within the storage compartment 2, and the drawer body 11 is slidably connected to the storage compartment 2. Since all the technical solutions of the above embodiments are adopted, it possesses at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be elaborated further here. The storage compartment 2 is, for example, one or more of a freezer compartment, a refrigerator compartment, and a variable temperature compartment.
