Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of refrigerator technology, and in particular to a folding shelf and a refrigerator including the folding shelf. Background Technology

[0002] To increase storage convenience and achieve layered storage of food, most existing refrigerators are equipped with shelves to divide the interior into multiple storage spaces. Existing refrigerator shelves on the market are generally divided into two types: (1) Single-panel shelves, which are a single piece. By removing or placing the single-panel shelf on refrigerator supports of different heights, the space inside the refrigerator can be adjusted. This adjustment method ensures that the height of each dimension of the single-layer storage space is equal. For some users, when the required higher storage space is smaller than the lower storage space, the internal space of the refrigerator may be wasted in order to ensure the height of the higher storage space; (2) Multi-panel shelves, which are formed by connecting multiple panels to form a single panel. Regarding multi-panel shelves, the designs of several existing refrigerator shelves are as follows:

[0003] Patent CN205641789U discloses a foldable and movable refrigerator glass shelf, including a front shelf, a rear shelf, and a cabinet liner. The cabinet liner includes a first cabinet liner, a second cabinet liner, and a third cabinet liner. The second cabinet liner is located to the left of the first cabinet liner, and the third cabinet liner is located to the left of the second cabinet liner. The first cabinet liner is located below the right end of the front shelf. The front shelf has a first tempered glass at its center, and the first tempered glass is surrounded by a first edge-binding plastic. The third cabinet liner is located below the left end of the rear shelf. The rear shelf has a second tempered glass at its center, and the second tempered glass is surrounded by a second edge-binding plastic. The front shelf and the rear shelf are hinged together by a hinge. The second cabinet liner is located below the hinge. The lower surface of the rear shelf has a limiting protrusion at its left end, and the third cabinet liner has an insertion groove that mates with the limiting protrusion. This patent connects the front shelf and the rear shelf with a hinge, allowing the front shelf to fold over the rear shelf with the hinge as the center. This solves to some extent the problem in single-panel shelves where some users require a larger storage space than a smaller storage space. However, since the shelf consists of only two panels, its adjustment capability is limited and cannot meet various storage space adjustment needs.

[0004] Patent CN118729670A discloses a shelf and a refrigeration device. The shelf includes a support assembly and a shelf panel assembly. The support assembly includes a first support and a second support that are opposite to each other and spaced apart, defining an accommodating space between the first and second supports. The shelf panel assembly is movably disposed on the first and second supports and includes multiple shelf panels that are hinged sequentially. The movement of the shelf panel assembly relative to the support assembly changes the size of the accommodating space occupied by the shelf panels. Thus, when tall items are placed under the refrigeration device, the movement of the shelf panel assembly relative to the support assembly can change the size of the accommodating space occupied by the shelf panels, allowing the tall items placed under the shelf to be positioned within the accommodating space. This facilitates the proper placement of tall items and prevents the shelf panel assembly from obstructing larger items, thereby meeting user needs. However, the adjustment and connection method of the shelf in this patent is relatively complex, which leads to problems such as difficulty in assembly, high cost, and the large storage space occupied by the shelf.

[0005] Patent CN216011407U discloses a shelf assembly and a refrigerator using the shelf assembly, including a track component, a rear shelf, a front shelf, and a connecting structure. The track component includes a left track component and a right track component, with limiting guide structures symmetrically arranged on the inner sides of the left and right track components. The rear shelf is disposed between the left and right track components and can rotate up and down relative to them. The front shelf is disposed within the limiting guide structure. The connecting structure connects the front shelf and the rear shelf. The shelf assembly has a first state and a second state. When the shelf assembly is in the first state, the front shelf is connected to the rear shelf through the connecting structure and can rotate from the rear end of the limiting guide structure to detach from it. When the shelf assembly is in the second state, the front shelf detaches from the connecting structure and is confined to the front end of the limiting guide structure. The shelf in this patent has both sliding and flipping functions, which makes it easy to adjust the storage space inside the box. However, when the shelf is unfolded, there is a large gap between the front and rear shelves, which can easily cause small items to fall out.

[0006] In view of this, it is necessary to design a folding shelf and a refrigerator including the folding shelf to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a folding shelf that can fully meet the various storage space adjustment needs of users, is easy to adjust, can ensure the tight connection between adjacent shelves to prevent small items from falling from the gaps between adjacent shelves, and at the same time, the shelf storage space is small and the shelf can ensure the stability of the refrigerator during the shelf storage process, as well as a refrigerator including the folding shelf.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0009] A folding shelf, comprising:

[0010] Shelves, with at least three;

[0011] A bracket is provided on the outer periphery of the shelf, and the bracket has multiple mounting slots symmetrically spaced on both sides of the shelf.

[0012] The cover plate is detachably connected to the bracket, thereby forming an installation area between the cover plate and the mounting groove;

[0013] The magnetic attractor, which is radially magnetized, is disposed in the mounting area and is clearance-fitted with the mounting area, so that the magnetic attractor can rotate freely about its axis, and the axis of the magnetic attractor is parallel to the side of the shelf on which it is located.

[0014] As a further improvement of this utility model, the shelf is a rectangular plate, and the mounting groove is set corresponding to the two long sides of the rectangular plate.

[0015] As a further improvement of this utility model, the bracket is an integral structure that is wrapped around the outer periphery of the shelf or a separate structure that is set on both sides of the shelf.

[0016] As a further improvement of this utility model, when the support is an integral structure, the support is a rectangular ring-shaped frame that is wrapped around the outer periphery of the shelf.

[0017] As a further improvement of this utility model, when the bracket is a split structure, the bracket includes two connecting rods that are detachably disposed on both sides of the shelf.

[0018] As a further improvement of this utility model, the magnetic attracting element is a cylindrical magnet.

[0019] This utility model also provides a refrigerator, comprising:

[0020] Box liner;

[0021] Supporting ribs are provided, with multiple supporting ribs symmetrically arranged at vertical intervals on both sides of the inner tank wall, and a first limiting member is provided at the end of the supporting ribs away from the opening of the inner tank.

[0022] Limiting ribs, at least one limiting rib is correspondingly disposed above the first limiting member; and

[0023] The folding shelf described in the above technical solution has a matching second limiting member on one shelf corresponding to the first limiting member. When multiple shelves are stacked between the supporting rib and the corresponding limiting rib, the first limiting member and the second limiting member cooperate to serve as a first limiting structure to fix the relative position of the folding shelf and the refrigerator in the horizontal direction. At the same time, the limiting rib serves as a second limiting structure to fix the upper and lower position of the folding shelf.

[0024] As a further improvement of this utility model, the length of the limiting rib is less than the width of the shelf.

[0025] As a further improvement of this utility model, the number of limiting ribs is equal to the number of first limiting members, and the height from the limiting ribs to the first limiting members is greater than the height when all shelves in the same layer are stacked.

[0026] As a further improvement of this utility model, the first limiting member is a limiting groove provided on the supporting rib, and the second limiting member is a limiting protrusion correspondingly provided on the shelf.

[0027] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0028] 1. This utility model, by symmetrically arranging magnetic suction components on the front and rear sides of the shelf and setting the magnetic suction components to be able to rotate freely in the mounting groove, enables any two shelves to be attracted to any front and rear surfaces without distinguishing between front and rear ends or front and back sides. This eliminates the limitation of magnetic poles, which is conducive to the rapid assembly of multiple shelves to form a plate structure to divide the internal space of the refrigerator, and also facilitates the rapid stacking and fixing of shelves to store them in specific positions inside the refrigerator, effectively improving the adjustment flexibility of the folding shelf.

[0029] 2. The magnetic connection method of the shelves in this utility model eliminates the limitations of magnetic poles, simplifies installation and adjustment, and ensures a tight connection between adjacent shelves to prevent small items from falling through the gaps between them. Furthermore, the ability to quickly stack shelves by allowing any two shelves to be attracted to each other avoids the repulsive forces that could affect shelf storage during stacking. During storage, the magnetic attraction ensures that the stacked shelves form a stable overall structure. Combined with the limiting design between the shelves and the supporting ribs, this allows multiple shelves to be stacked and fixed in specific positions inside the refrigerator during transport, preventing the shelves from shaking or shifting relative to the refrigerator and causing damage to the refrigerator's interior or the shelves themselves.

[0030] 3. This utility model achieves the connection and stacking of shelves through the adsorption of magnetic components, eliminating the need for complex assembly structures to connect shelves. It also eliminates the need for independent support seats on both sides of the box to assist in adjusting the folding shelves, resulting in a simpler structure and lower cost.

[0045] Additionally, it should be noted that the term "comprising" or any other variation thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0046] Example 1

[0047] Please see Figures 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides a folding shelf, including:

[0048] Shelf 10, with at least three shelves;

[0049] A bracket 20 is disposed on the outer periphery of the shelf 10, and the bracket 20 is provided with multiple mounting slots 21 symmetrically spaced on both sides of the shelf 10.

[0050] The cover plate 30 is detachably connected to the bracket 20, so that an installation area is formed between the cover plate 30 and the mounting groove 21;

[0051] The magnetic suction element 40 is radially magnetized and disposed in the mounting area with a clearance fit, so that the magnetic suction element 40 can rotate freely about its axis, and the axis of the magnetic suction element 40 is parallel to the side of the shelf 10 on which it is located.

[0052] Specifically, shelf 10 is a rectangular plate, and mounting slot 21 is set on the two long sides of the rectangular plate.

[0053] Specifically, the bracket 20 is either an integral structure surrounding the shelf 10 or a separate structure located on both sides of the shelf 10. For example, when the bracket 20 is an integral structure, it is a rectangular ring-shaped frame surrounding the shelf 10. This rectangular ring-shaped frame can be integrated with the shelf 10 to improve the support capacity of the overall structure formed by the bracket 20 and the shelf 10. Alternatively, the bracket 20 and the shelf 10 can be connected in a detachable manner, such as by snap-fit ​​or screws, to facilitate subsequent disassembly as needed. For instance, if the bracket 20 or shelf 10 is damaged, only the damaged bracket 20 or shelf 10 needs to be replaced, thereby reducing usage costs to some extent.

[0054] When the bracket 20 is a split structure, the bracket 20 includes two detachable connecting rods disposed on both sides of the shelf 10, and mounting grooves 21 are disposed on the connecting rods. The detachable connection between the connecting rods and the bracket 20 can be achieved using existing methods, such as by using snap-fit ​​or screws. This ensures the connection strength between the connecting rods and the bracket 20 to guarantee the supporting capacity of the overall structure formed by the connecting rods and the bracket 20, while also facilitating subsequent disassembly of the connecting rods and the shelf 10 as needed. For example, if a connecting rod or shelf 10 is damaged, it can be replaced, thereby reducing usage costs to some extent.

[0055] Specifically, the cover plate 30 and the bracket 20 are connected by a snap-fit ​​connection. For example, the cover plate 30 is provided with snap-fit ​​protrusions 31 on both sides, and the bracket 20 is provided with corresponding snap-fit ​​grooves. During installation, under the action of external force, the snap-fit ​​protrusions 31 are snapped into the snap-fit ​​grooves, thus completing the connection between the cover plate 30 and the bracket 20, so that a number of installation areas are formed between the cover plate 30 and the bracket 20 at intervals along the long side of the shelf 10.

[0056] In this example, three mounting slots 21 are provided on one side of the shelf 10, located at both ends and the middle of the side of the shelf 10, respectively, to meet the magnetic fixation requirements of adjacent shelves 10.

[0057] In addition, along the long side of the shelf 10, the bracket 20 between adjacent mounting slots 21 is provided with several small grooves at intervals to reduce the weight of the bracket 20 to a certain extent.

[0058] For example, the magnetic component 40 is a cylindrical magnet. The material of the magnetic component 40 can be selected according to actual needs. In this example, the material of the magnetic component 40 is neodymium magnet, that is, the magnetic component 40 is a cylindrical neodymium magnet. Neodymium magnets have extremely high magnetic properties and their maximum magnetic energy product is more than 10 times higher than that of ferrite. Moreover, they are hard and stable, which can fully meet the connection and fixation requirements of adjacent shelves. The N pole and S pole of conventional magnetic components are generally distributed at both ends. This kind of magnetic pole distribution will cause adjacent magnetic components to affect the attraction during use due to the repulsion of like poles. In this example, the cylindrical neodymium magnet is radially magnetized so that the N pole and S pole are distributed on the side of the cylindrical neodymium magnet ( Figure 2 This design allows the cylindrical neodymium magnet to generate a strong magnetic field on its side. Combined with the fact that the cylindrical neodymium magnet can rotate freely in the installation area, the shelves 10 can be installed or stacked without distinguishing between the front and back ends or the front and back sides. Any two shelves 10 can be magnetically connected without the limitation of magnetic poles. This avoids the problem of two shelves 10 being affected by repulsion due to like poles, which would affect their connection or stacking. This facilitates the rapid assembly of multiple shelves 10 to form a panel structure to divide the internal space of the refrigerator into multiple storage spaces for different purposes. It also facilitates the rapid stacking and fixing of shelves 10 to store them in specific positions inside the refrigerator, effectively improving the adjustability of the folding shelf.

[0059] In addition, the radial magnetization, which distributes the N and S poles on the side of the cylindrical neodymium magnet, can effectively increase the adsorption area of ​​the two cylindrical neodymium magnets during the magnetic connection process by reasonably controlling the height of the cylinder. In addition to selecting the magnetic part 40 made of neodymium magnet material to increase the adsorption stability, the adsorption stability can be further improved by increasing the adsorption area, which fully meets the connection and fixing requirements of two adjacent shelves 10, ensuring the tightness of the connection between adjacent shelves 10 and preventing small items from falling from the gap between adjacent shelves 10.

[0060] Specifically, the shelf 10 is a transparent plate.

[0061] The folding shelf described in this embodiment mainly connects the shelves 10 through magnetic attraction. It can be supported by the support ribs of existing conventional shelves to divide and adjust the internal space of the refrigerator. There is no need to set up independent support seats on both sides of the refrigerator liner to assist in the adjustment of the folding shelf. The structure is simpler and more convenient to use.

[0062] Example 2

[0063] like Figures 3-8 As shown, this embodiment provides a refrigerator, including:

[0064] 50mm inner liner;

[0065] Supporting ribs 60, multiple supporting ribs 60 are symmetrically arranged at vertical intervals on both sides of the box liner 50, and a first limiting member 61 is provided at the end of the supporting rib 60 away from the opening of the box liner 50.

[0066] At least one limiting rib 70 is correspondingly disposed above the first limiting member 61; and

[0067] In the folding shelf described in Embodiment 1, a matching second limiting member 11 is provided on one shelf 10 of the folding shelf corresponding to the first limiting member 61, so that when multiple shelves 10 are stacked, the first limiting member 61 and the second limiting member 11 cooperate to serve as a first limiting structure to fix the relative position of the folding shelf and the refrigerator in the horizontal direction, while the limiting rib 70 serves as a second limiting structure to fix the upper and lower positions of the folding shelf.

[0068] In some embodiments, the refrigerator also includes a door located at the opening end of the liner 50, which can open or close the opening of the liner 50.

[0069] Specifically, in this example, the length of the limiting rib 70 is less than the width of the shelf 10, the number of limiting ribs 70 is equal to the number of the first limiting member 61, and the height from the limiting rib 70 to the first limiting member 61 is slightly greater than the height when the shelves 10 of the same layer are stacked. The setting that the length of the limiting rib 70 is less than the width of the shelf 10 can prevent the shelf 10 from being placed when the top shelf 10 is stacked. This is because the length of the limiting rib 70 is too long, which would prevent the shelf 10 from being placed below the limiting rib 70 in a parallel push-in manner. In this example, when placing the top shelf 10, the shelf 10 can be tilted so that one side of the shelf 10 is away from the shelf 10 below it. Then, the angle between the shelf 10 and the horizontal plane is gradually reduced, and the shelf 10 is pushed under the limiting rib 70 so that the shelf 10 is locked between the shelf 10 below it and the limiting rib 70. This effectively reduces the impact of the magnetic attraction ...

[0070] In some implementations, such as Figure 3 and Figure 8 As shown, the first limiting member 61 is a limiting groove provided on the supporting rib 60, and the second limiting member 11 is a corresponding limiting protrusion provided on the shelf 10, so that when the limiting protrusion is engaged in the limiting groove, the shelf 10 and the supporting rib 60 remain relatively fixed in the horizontal direction. Since the shelves 10 are magnetically connected, during refrigerator transportation, the shelves 10 are stacked between the supporting rib 60 and the limiting rib 70, as shown... Figure 7 and Figure 8The diagram shows a stacked arrangement of single-layer folding shelves. Magnetic attraction allows the stacked shelves 10 to form a stable overall structure. Simultaneously, the limiting ribs 70 limit the stacked folding shelves, ensuring they remain relatively stable with respect to the refrigerator vertically. Furthermore, the first limiting member 61 and the second limiting member 11 further limit the shelves, maintaining relative stability with respect to the refrigerator horizontally. This ensures that during refrigerator transportation, multiple shelves 10 can be stacked and fixed in specific positions inside the refrigerator, maintaining relative stability and preventing the shelves 10 from shaking or shifting relative to the refrigerator, thus avoiding damage to the refrigerator interior or the shelves 10.

[0071] In addition, during the use of the refrigerator, the cooperation between the first limiting member 61 and the second limiting member 11 of the shelf 10 can make the folding shelf and the refrigerator maintain a relatively stable state.

[0072] For example, multiple support ribs 60 are symmetrically arranged at vertical intervals on both sides of the box liner 50, so that two support ribs 60 symmetrically arranged in the same horizontal direction serve as support structures for the folding shelf. That is, in this example, multiple support structures are formed at intervals along the vertical inside of the box liner 50, so that when the folding shelf is installed on the corresponding support structure, the inside of the box liner 50 can be divided into multiple storage spaces accordingly.

[0073] Specifically, the folding shelf has four shelves 10, which can be connected and adjusted as needed. Compared with conventional shelves made of two hinged plates, the folding shelf can adjust the storage space according to user needs, fully meeting various storage space control requirements.

[0074] When tall items are placed under the folding shelves of the refrigerator, the corresponding shelf 10 can be removed. For example, when tall items need to be stacked in the inner part of the refrigerator, the shelf 10 above the tall items can be removed, thus adjusting the storage space. Since the adjacent shelves 10 of the folding shelves of this utility model are mainly connected by magnetic attraction, the removal of the shelf 10 near the inside of the refrigerator will not affect the connection of the shelf 10 near the door. Correspondingly, if tall items need to be stacked near the door, the corresponding shelf 10 can also be removed. Figure 5 , Figure 6 ).

[0075] Regarding the state of the remaining shelf 10 after disassembling some shelves 10 on the same layer, since the shelf 10 is in a horizontal state under normal use and also has a certain mass, and there may be heavy objects on the shelf 10, in this state, the shelf 10 can always maintain a relatively stable state with the refrigerator along the horizontal direction. That is, the folding shelf of this utility model can be disassembled at the corresponding position according to the use needs, which is highly flexible in use. Compared with traditional shelves, the folding shelf in the refrigerator of this utility model can effectively improve the space utilization of the refrigerator liner 50, fully meet the user's needs, and improve the user experience.

[0076] Understandably, items placed under the folding shelf can be items placed on the lower folding shelf relative to the upper folding shelf; or, items placed under the folding shelf can be items placed at the bottom of the inner liner 50.

[0077] When the refrigerator is manufactured and needs to be transported to a specific location such as a shopping mall or a user's home, the shelves 10 on the same layer are stacked between the corresponding support ribs 60 and limiting ribs 70, so that all the shelves 10 inside the refrigerator can maintain a relatively stable state with the refrigerator, which facilitates the transportation of the refrigerator and avoids damage to the refrigerator liner 50 or the shelves 10 caused by the shelves 10 shaking and hitting the refrigerator liner 50 during transportation.

[0078] When using the refrigerator, the user can assemble the shelves 10 as needed. For example, the shelves 10 of each layer can be connected in sequence to form a folding shelf with a one-piece structure and placed on the corresponding support ribs 60. Figure 3 , Figure 4 The cabinet 50 is divided into several rectangular storage spaces of equal or different heights using folding shelves.

[0079] When it is necessary to adjust the storage space inside the box liner 50 to meet various height storage needs, the shelf 10 at the corresponding position can be removed. The removed shelf 10 can be placed between the supporting rib 60 and the limiting rib 70, or the removed shelf 10 can also be placed on a certain layer of supporting rib 60 according to the user's needs. Figure 5 , Figure 6 Since the magnetic component 40 can rotate freely in the installation area, i.e., the installation slot 21, any two shelves 10 can be magnetically fixed. Therefore, the folding shelf of this utility model has high flexibility of use and can realize the adjustment of various storage spaces in the refrigerator, fully meeting various storage requirements.

[0080] The first limiting member 61 and the second limiting member 11 in this utility model not only facilitate the fixing of the relative position of the shelf 10 and the refrigerator during use and transportation, but also fix the shelf 10 away from the door when the shelf 10 near the door on the same layer is disassembled. That is, since the refrigerator is generally deep, the existence of the limiting member can, to a certain extent, prevent the internal shelf 10 from shifting when the external shelf 10 is disassembled.

[0081] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model.
