[0040] Existing refrigerator doors typically have display and control areas to show and adjust the refrigerator's cooling mode and temperature. However, most refrigerator doors are made of steel. When installing the display and control module, a slot must be pre-cut in the steel door for the module, and then the module is placed inside. The display and control module is made of a different material than the metal door shell, and there are gaps between them, which damages the overall appearance of the metal door shell and results in a poor sense of unity.
[0041] In view of this, the present invention proposes a door body for a refrigeration device, which aims to solve the problem that when the display and control module 2 is installed on the existing refrigerator door body, there is an installation gap between the display and control module 2 and the metal door shell, which causes damage to the overall appearance of the metal door shell and a poor sense of unity.
[0042] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment of this utility model, the door of the refrigeration equipment includes a housing 1 with an internal mounting cavity 1a. The housing 1 includes a main door panel 11 and a side cover plate 12 connected to each other. The main door panel 11 is provided with an adjacent display area 11a and a control area 11b. The side cover plate 12 has a mounting port 121 communicating with the mounting cavity 1a. A display and control module 2 is installed in the mounting cavity 1a through the mounting port 121. The display and control module 2 includes a display screen 2a and a control module 2b. The display screen 2a corresponds to the display area 11a, and the control module 2b corresponds to the control area 11b.
[0043] It should be noted that the refrigeration equipment can be a freezer, refrigerator, or other container with refrigeration function used to refrigerate objects. In the context of a refrigerator, the door of the refrigeration equipment is the refrigerator door. A refrigerator door generally has an outer shell, i.e., a housing 1. An installation cavity 1a is formed between the outer shell and the inner lining of the refrigerator door. The installation cavity 1a is filled with foam material to shape the door structure. It should be noted that the housing 1 has a main door panel 11, which is the door panel facing outwards. The main door panel 11 has four side cover plates 12 on its upper, lower, left, and right sides. The side cover plates 12 have installation openings 121 for installing the display and control module 2. The installation opening 121 can be located in any side panel adjacent to the main door panel 11, without specific limitations.
[0044] Specifically, the main door panel 11 has adjacent display area 11a and control area 11b. Display area 11a is generally used to display the refrigerator's cooling mode and internal temperature, while control area 11b is generally used to adjust the refrigerator's cooling mode and temperature. The display and control module 2 is generally used to implement the functions of the display area 11a and control area 11b. However, as a separate component, the display and control module 2 needs to be installed on the housing 1, which disrupts the seamless integration of the main door panel of the housing 1.
[0045] Furthermore, the housing 1 includes a main door panel 11 and a side cover panel 12 connected to each other. The main door panel 11 is provided with a display area 11a and a control area 11b, and the side cover panel 12 has a mounting port 121 communicating with the mounting cavity 1a. The display and control module 2 is installed in the mounting cavity 1a through the mounting port 121. The display and control module 2 includes a display screen 2a and a control module 2b. The display screen 2a corresponds to the display area 11a, and the control module 2b corresponds to the control area 11b. The display screen 2a is used to display the working status and parameters of the refrigerator, and the control module 2b is used to adjust the cooling mode and temperature of the refrigerator. Through this design, the display and control module 2 can be tightly integrated with the housing 1, avoiding the installation gap problem between the display and control module 2 and the metal door shell, thereby improving the overall appearance and sense of unity of the refrigerator door.
[0046] By forming a mounting cavity 1a inside the housing 1 and installing the display and control module 2 inside the mounting cavity 1a through the mounting port 121 on the side cover plate 12, the connection between the display and control module 2 and the housing 1 is made tighter, avoiding the installation gap problem between the display and control module 2 and the metal door shell, thereby improving the overall appearance and seamlessness of the refrigerator door. Specifically, the display and control module 2 is installed in the mounting cavity 1a of the housing 1 through the mounting port 121. The display and control module 2 includes a display screen 2a and a control module 2b. The display screen 2a corresponds to the display area 11a, and the control module 2b corresponds to the control area 11b. The display screen 2a is used to display the working status and parameters of the refrigerator, and the control module 2b is used to adjust the cooling mode and temperature of the refrigerator. Through this design, the display and control module 2 can be tightly integrated with the housing 1, avoiding the installation gap problem between the display and control module 2 and the metal door shell, thereby improving the overall appearance and seamlessness of the refrigerator door.
[0047] The technical solution of this utility model adopts an installation port 121 on the side cover of the refrigerator door for installing the display and control module 2, which avoids the installation gap problem between the display and control module 2 and the metal door shell caused by directly installing the display and control module 2 on the metal door shell, thereby improving the overall appearance and sense of unity of the refrigerator door.
[0048] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 The display and control module 2 includes a mounting box 21 and a display and control board 221 assembly 22. The mounting box 21 extends into the mounting cavity 1a through the mounting port 121, and the side of the mounting box 21 near the mounting port 121 is connected to the side cover plate 12. The display and control board 221 assembly 22 is installed inside the mounting box 21. The mounting box 21 has an opening 211 on the side facing the main door panel 11.
[0049] Specifically, to facilitate the installation of the display and control module 2, it is divided into a mounting box 21 and a display and control board 221 assembly 22. First, the mounting box 21 is inserted into the mounting cavity 1a through the mounting port 121. Then, the control board assembly is installed inside the mounting box 21, thus completing the installation of the display and control module 2. The display and control board 221 assembly 22 can correspond to the display area 11a and control area 11b on the main door panel 11 through the opening 211, thereby realizing the display and control function. The mounting box 21 can be made of metal or plastic. The display and control board 221 assembly 22 can include a display screen 2a and a control module 2b, with the display screen 2a corresponding to the display area 11a and the control module 2b corresponding to the control area 11b. The design of the mounting box 21 can be adjusted according to specific needs, such as adding a fixing structure or a sealing structure to ensure the stability and waterproof performance of the display and control module 2.
[0050] This application addresses the issue of directly slotting the metal door panel to install the display and control module 2 within the door's mounting cavity 1a by providing a mounting port 121 on the side cover plate 12. This avoids the problem of directly slotting the display and control module 2 on the metal door panel. The display and control module 2 includes a mounting box 21 and a display and control board 221 assembly 22. The mounting box 21 extends into the mounting cavity 1a through the mounting port 121, and the side of the mounting box 21 closest to the mounting port 121 is connected to the side cover plate 12. The display and control board 221 assembly 22 is installed inside the mounting box 21. The mounting box 21 has an opening 211 on the side facing the main door panel 11, allowing the display and control board 221 assembly 22 to correspond to the display area 11a and control area 11b on the main door panel 11 through the opening 211. Therefore, this application solves the problem in the prior art where there is an installation gap between the display and control module 2 and the metal door shell, resulting in damage to the overall appearance, and improves the overall aesthetics and seamlessness of the door.
[0051] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6 The side cover plate 12 has a latching groove 122 adjacent to the mounting opening 121. The mounting box 21 is provided with a hook 212, which engages with the latching groove 122 to fasten the mounting box 21 to the side cover plate 12. In this configuration, the design of the hook 212 and the latching groove 122 allows the mounting box 21 to be securely fixed to the side cover plate 12 without the need for additional fasteners, thus simplifying the installation process. Through the engagement of the hook 212 and the latching groove 122, the mounting box 21 can be easily installed and removed, facilitating the maintenance and replacement of the display and control module 2.
[0052] Specifically, when the mounting box 21 is inserted into the mounting cavity 1a through the mounting port 121, the hook 212 automatically engages with the latching groove 122, ensuring that the mounting box 21 is firmly fixed to the side cover plate 12. This not only improves the ease of installation but also ensures the stability of the display and control module 2. Thus, by designing the latching groove 122 and the hook 212 on the side cover plate 12 and the mounting box 21, this application achieves rapid installation and stable fixation of the display and control module 2, solving the problems of complex installation and poor stability of the display and control module 2 in the prior art.
[0053] In a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 The display control board 221 assembly 22 includes a display control board 221 and a bracket 222. The display control board 221 is mounted on the bracket 222. The display screen 2a and the control module 2b are disposed on the display control board 221. The mounting box 21 is provided with a first positioning post 213. The bracket 222 has a first positioning hole 222a that is adapted to the first positioning post 213. The first positioning post 213 passes through the first positioning hole 222a so that the bracket 222 is mounted on the mounting box 21.
[0054] Furthermore, this application proposes that the display control board 221 assembly 22 consists of a display control board 221 and a bracket 222. The display control board 221 is mounted on the bracket 222, and the mounting method can be snap-fit, plug-in, or screw-in. The display screen 2a and the control module 2b are both mounted on the display control board 221, and the connection between the display screen 2a and the display control board 221 can be glued or screw-in, etc. More specifically, the mounting box 21 has a first positioning post 213, and the bracket 222 has a first positioning hole 222a that matches the first positioning post 213. The bracket 222 is securely mounted inside the mounting box 21 by the first positioning post 213 passing through the first positioning hole 222a.
[0055] The combined design of the display control board 221 and the bracket 222 makes the installation of the display control board 221 assembly 22 simpler and more secure. The cooperation of the positioning posts and positioning holes ensures the accurate positioning of the display control board 221 assembly 22 within the mounting box 21. This design not only improves installation efficiency but also enhances the stability of the display control board 221 assembly 22, avoiding the problem of loosening or displacement of the display control board 221 assembly 22 due to improper installation. Therefore, the solution of this application solves the problem in the prior art where there is an installation gap between the display control module 2 and the metal door shell, resulting in damage to the overall appearance of the metal door shell.
[0056] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 The bracket 222 is provided with elastic elements 222b on opposite sides. The two elastic elements 222b are elastically engaged with the two inner walls of the mounting box 21 to limit the relative position of the bracket 222.
[0057] Furthermore, the technical solution of this application solves the installation gap problem existing in the prior art when the display and control module 2 is installed on the refrigerator door. By providing elastic elements 222b on opposite sides of the bracket 222, the bracket 222 can be elastically engaged with the inner wall of the mounting box 21, thereby effectively limiting the relative position of the bracket 222 and preventing the bracket 222 from loosening within the mounting box 21. At the same time, the elastic elements 222b can also absorb and buffer external impact forces to a certain extent, protecting the stability and safety of the display and control module 2.
[0058] Specifically, the elastic element 222b can be made of rubber or other elastic materials to ensure good elasticity and durability. The shape and size of the elastic element 222b can be designed according to actual needs, for example, it can be a strip, a block, or other suitable shape. The elastic element 222b can be fixed to the bracket 222 by adhesive, snap-fit, or other means, thereby achieving elastic engagement with the inner wall of the mounting box 21. In this embodiment, a deformation space is provided between the elastic element 222b and the bracket 222, thereby achieving the elastic engagement function between the elastic element 222b and the inner wall of the mounting box 21.
[0059] Therefore, by incorporating the elastic element 222b, this application not only improves the installation stability of the display and control module 2 and avoids the problem of installation gaps, but also enhances the impact resistance of the display and control module 2 to a certain extent. Compared with the prior art, the technical solution provided by this application offers better installation results and user experience.
[0060] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 The bracket 222 is provided with a second positioning post 222c on the side facing the display control board 221. The display control board 221 is provided with a second positioning hole 221a that is adapted to the second positioning post 222c. The second positioning post 222c passes through the second positioning hole 221a.
[0061] The technical solution in this application involves setting a second positioning post 222c on the side of the bracket 222 facing the display control board 221, and opening a second positioning hole 221a on the display control board 221 to fit the second positioning post 222c, allowing the second positioning post 222c to pass through the second positioning hole 221a, thereby achieving a stable connection between the display control board 221 and the bracket 222. Specifically, the second positioning post 222c can be made of different materials and processed using different methods, such as metal or high-strength plastic, and manufactured by injection molding or machining. The second positioning hole 221a on the display control board 221 can be designed and processed according to the material and structure of the display control board 221 to ensure the fitting accuracy and stability between it and the second positioning post 222c.
[0062] Therefore, by setting up the cooperative structure of the second positioning post 222c and the second positioning hole 221a, the display and control board 221 can be more securely installed on the bracket 222, avoiding the installation gap problem between the display and control module 2 and the metal door shell, and improving the overall appearance. At the same time, this structural design also simplifies the installation process of the display and control module 2, and improves installation efficiency and reliability.
[0063] In one embodiment, please continue to refer to Figure 5The bracket 222 has a first latching part 222d protruding toward the display control board 221, and the first latching part 222d is fastened to the display control board 221.
[0064] Specifically, in existing refrigerator doors, there is an installation gap between the display and control module 2 and the metal door shell, which damages the overall appearance of the metal door shell and affects its seamlessness. This application effectively solves this problem by providing a first latching part 222d on the bracket 222 and fastening the first latching part 222d to the display and control board 221. Specifically, the first latching part 222d, through its fastening with the display and control board 221, makes the display and control module 2 more securely installed on the refrigerator door, reduces the gap between the display and control module 2 and the metal door shell, and thus improves the overall appearance of the refrigerator door.
[0065] The first latching part 222d can be implemented in several ways. For example, the first latching part 222d can be an elastic latch set on the bracket 222, which, through cooperation with the display and control board 221, achieves a secure connection. Alternatively, the first latching part 222d can be fixed by screws, so that the display and control board 221 is tightly connected to the bracket 222. Regardless of the method used, the secure installation of the display and control module 2 can be ensured, improving the overall aesthetics of the refrigerator door.
[0066] Through the aforementioned technical means, this application effectively solves the problem of installation gaps between the display and control module 2 and the metal door shell in the prior art, improving the overall appearance of the refrigerator door and enhancing the product's aesthetics and user experience. Therefore, this application has improved the installation structure of the display and control module 2, possessing significant technical advantages.
[0067] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The main door panel 11 is provided with an indicator light clearance hole 111 and a button clearance hole 112. The control module 2b includes a plurality of contacts 24 arranged in sequence. The display screen 2a corresponds to the indicator light clearance hole 111, and the contacts 24 correspond to the button clearance hole 112.
[0068] It should be noted that the indicator light clearance hole 111 and button clearance hole 112 provided on the main door panel 11 ensure accurate alignment between the display screen 2a and the contact point 24, thereby improving the precision and aesthetics of the installation. The display screen 2a displays through the indicator light clearance hole 111, and the contact point 24 is controlled through the button clearance hole 112. This design not only solves the installation gap problem between the display and control module 2 and the metal door shell, but also enhances the overall appearance and seamlessness of the metal door shell. Furthermore, the opening area of the indicator light clearance hole 111 and the button clearance hole 112 is relatively small, minimizing its impact on the seamlessness of the metal door shell.
[0069] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 10 The bracket 222 has a screen mounting hole 222e adapted to the display screen 2a. The bracket 222 has a plurality of second latching parts 222f protruding toward the display control board 221. The display screen 2a is embedded in the screen mounting hole 222e, and the plurality of second latching parts 222f are fastened to the display control board 221.
[0070] Specifically, the bracket 222 has a screen mounting hole 222e, allowing the display screen 2a to be installed into the screen mounting hole 222e. There is an interference fit between the display screen 2a and the screen mounting hole 222e, ensuring that the screen mounting hole 222e can hold the display screen 2a in place. When the display screen 2a extends a certain distance, several second latching parts 222f protruding from the bracket 222 towards the display control board 221 will hold the display control board 221 in place, further improving the stability of the installation between the bracket 222 and the display control board 221.

This simple and ingenious connection structure ensures the connection strength and stability between the mounting box 21 and the mounting plate 231. In order to further enhance the installation strength between the mounting plate 231 and the mounting box 21, a snap-fit part 233 is provided on the mounting plate 231 protruding towards the mounting box 21. A slot 215 corresponding to the snap-fit part 233 is provided on the mounting box 21. The connection strength between the mounting plate 231 and the mounting box 21 is ensured by the matching of the snap-fit part 233 and the slot 215.
[0076] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 6 The mounting box 21 has a mounting groove 216 corresponding to the mounting plate 231. The third positioning post 214 and the slot 215 are both set in the mounting groove 216. The mounting plate 231 is installed in the mounting groove 216. The depth of the mounting groove 216 is the same as the thickness of the mounting plate 231.
[0077] It should be noted that the mounting box 21 has a mounting groove 216 corresponding to the mounting plate 231. The thickness of the mounting plate 231 is the same as the depth of the mounting groove 216, so that the mounting plate 231 can be fully installed in the mounting groove 216, thereby saving installation space.
[0078] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 11 The mounting plate 231 and the main door panel 11 are bonded together by double-sided adhesive tape 3.
[0079] It should be noted that, in order to further ensure the assembly accuracy between the button module 23 and the main door panel 11, and to ensure that the multiple keycaps 232 of the button module 23 can protrude through the button clearance holes 112, a double-sided tape 3 is provided between the mounting plate 231 of the button module 23 and the main door panel 11. The shape of the double-sided tape 3 is adapted to the shape of the main door panel 11, thereby ensuring a good bonding effect between the mounting plate 231 and the main door panel 11 and ensuring the bonding strength.
[0080] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 3A sealing cap 13 is provided on the mounting port 121 to seal the mounting port 121, and the mounting port 121 is located at the top of the door body.
[0081] Specifically, after the control module 2b is completely installed into the door body through the mounting port 121, the mounting port 121 can be sealed by the sealing cover 13 to ensure that dust and water do not flow into the door body through the mounting port 121 and thus contaminate the control module 2b.
