[0059] The following is combined with Figures 1-11 The refrigeration equipment provided by the utility model embodiments will be described in detail through specific implementation examples and application scenarios.
[0060] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a refrigeration device, including: a housing 1, a decorative panel 6, and a snap-fit structure 7;
[0061] The cabinet 1 is configured to be embedded in the cabinet 2, and a receiving gap 100 is formed between the top wall of the cabinet 1 and the top wall of the cabinet 2. The receiving gap 100 is configured to install a related structure located on the top of the cabinet 1, such as the adjustment component shown in the following embodiment. The decorative panel 6 is disposed on the top of the cabinet 1 and is located on the side of the cabinet 1 facing the user, so as to cover the receiving gap 100. The snap-fit structure 7 includes a first snap-fit part 71 and a second snap-fit part 72. The first snap-fit part 71 is disposed on the side of the decorative panel 6 away from the user, and the second snap-fit part 72 is disposed on the top wall of the cabinet 1. The first snap-fit part 71 and the second snap-fit part 72 can achieve snap-fit and separation.
[0062] It is understood that the refrigeration equipment can be a refrigerator, freezer, or ice maker, etc. The refrigeration equipment includes a cabinet 1 and a door. The cabinet 1 has an open end facing the user. A storage compartment is formed inside the cabinet 1. The cabinet 1 is connected to the door via a hinge 8, allowing the door to be rotatably positioned at the open end of the cabinet 1, thereby opening or closing the storage compartment. The storage compartment can include a refrigerator compartment and a freezer compartment. The bottom of the cabinet 1 can be equipped with casters, such as spherical casters, to allow the cabinet 1 to be movably installed within the cabinet 2.
[0063] Cabinet 2 is usually assembled from wooden boards. Cabinet 2 is set along the wall of the room. Cabinet 2 has a storage room. Box 1 is movably set in the storage room. Box 1 and storage room are roughly the same shape, but the volume of box 1 is smaller than that of storage room.
[0064] The decorative panel 6 can be made of plastic or wood. The side of the decorative panel 6 facing the user can be set with patterned logos to display relevant information about the refrigeration equipment based on the patterned logos.
[0065] like Figure 3 As shown, the decorative panel 6 can be configured to include a panel body 61 and a reinforcing rib 62. When the door of the refrigeration equipment is closed, the side of the door facing the user is approximately flush with the side of the panel body 61 facing the user, and the reinforcing rib 62 is located on the side of the panel body 61 away from the user.
[0066] For the snap-fit structure 7, the first snap-fit part 71 can be connected to the decorative panel 6 by fasteners such as bolts and screws, and the second snap-fit part 72 can be connected to the top wall of the housing 1 by fasteners such as bolts and screws; for example, the first snap-fit part 71 can be a snap tongue, and the second snap-fit part 72 can be a snap groove adapted to the snap tongue.
[0067] As can be seen from the above, this utility model, by setting a snap-fit structure 7 between the box body 1 and the decorative panel 6, can achieve a detachable connection between the decorative panel 6 and the box body 1. After the box body 1 is installed in the cabinet 2, the decorative panel 6 can be installed by connecting the first snap-fit part 71 and the second snap-fit part 72 corresponding to the snap-fit structure 7. When it is necessary to adjust or repair the relevant structure on the top of the box body 1, the decorative panel 6 can be easily removed from the top of the box body 1 by simply separating the first snap-fit part 71 and the second snap-fit part 72, without having to remove the box body 1 from the cabinet 2. Its operation is simple and convenient.
[0068] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first latching part 71 includes a latch 711, and the second latching part 72 includes a latch 721. The latch 711 is configured to latch onto the peripheral wall of the latch 721.
[0069] Understandably, the claw 711 includes a base, a first claw body, and a second claw body. The base is detachably connected to the decorative panel 6 via a locking device. Both the first claw body and the second claw body can be configured as arc-shaped. The first end of the first claw body and the first end of the second claw body are respectively connected to the base. The second end of the first claw body and the second end of the second claw body are spaced apart to form a locking entrance. The first claw body and the second claw body can be made of a material with a certain degree of elasticity, for example, both the first claw body and the second claw body are plastic claw bodies.
[0070] In practical applications, since the locking bar 721 is fixedly installed on the top wall of the housing 1, the operator can move the decorative plate 6 toward the side of the receiving gap 100 along the thickness direction of the housing 1. The decorative plate 6 drives the locking claw 711 to approach the locking bar 721 until the locking bar 721 is inserted from the locking inlet into the space between the first claw body and the second claw body of the locking claw 711, so that the locking claw 711 is locked on the peripheral wall of the locking bar 721.
[0071] Of course, when it is necessary to remove the decorative panel 6, simply control the decorative panel 6 to move towards the user side, and the decorative panel 6 will drive the claw 711 away from the stick 721 until the stick 721 disengages from the claw 711.
[0072] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, in order to ensure the reliability of the engagement between the first latching part 71 and the second latching part 72, the first latching part 71 includes a plurality of latches 711, which are arranged side by side along the width direction of the housing 1; the latching bar 721 extends along the width direction of the housing 1, and the plurality of latches 711 engage with the latching bar 721 respectively.
[0073] For example, the first latching part 71 includes three latches 711, which are spaced apart from each other and arranged along the width direction of the housing 1; the three latches 711 are disposed opposite to the same latching bar 721, and the length of the latching bar 721 is less than the width of the housing 1.
[0074] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, in order to facilitate the engagement of the claw 711 and the locking bar 721, the second engaging part 72 further includes: a first fixing seat 722 and a second fixing seat 723. The first fixing seat 722 and the second fixing seat 723 are respectively connected to the top wall of the housing 1, and the locking bar 721 is disposed between the first fixing seat 722 and the second fixing seat 723. There is a gap between the locking bar 721 and the top wall of the housing 1, and the claw 711 can pass through the gap to engage with the locking bar 721.
[0075] It is understood that the first fixing seat 722 and the second fixing seat 723 are arranged opposite to each other along the width direction of the housing 1. The first fixing seat 722 has a first fixing groove on the side facing the second fixing seat 723, and the second fixing seat 723 has a second fixing groove on the side facing the first fixing seat 722. One end of the locking rod 721 is inserted into the first fixing groove, and the other end of the locking rod 721 is inserted into the second fixing groove.
[0076] In the case where the chuck 711 includes a base, a first chuck body, and a second chuck body, when the chuck 711 engages with the chuck 721, the first chuck body passes through the gap between the chuck 721 and the top wall of the housing 1, and surrounds the lower surface of the chuck 721, while the second chuck body surrounds the upper surface of the chuck 721.
[0077] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the decorative panel 6 is also provided with an opening 610. One end of the hinge 8 corresponding to the refrigeration equipment is connected to the top wall of the cabinet 1. The hinge 8 passes through the opening 610, and the other end of the hinge 8 is connected to the cabinet door of the refrigeration equipment.
[0078] For a refrigeration device with two doors, the refrigeration device is equipped with two hinges 8, and the decorative panel 6 has two openings 610, with the two openings 610 and the two hinges 8 arranged opposite each other.
[0079] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the refrigeration equipment also includes: an adjustment component 3; the adjustment component 3 is disposed on the top wall of the housing 1 and located within the accommodating gap 100;
[0080] Adjustment component 3 is configured to connect to the side wall of cabinet 2 to adjust the distance between the side wall of box 1 and the side wall of cabinet 2.
[0081] It is understood that the adjusting component 3 can be a telescopic rod or an adjusting screw, etc. Exemplarily, the adjusting component 3 has an input end and an output end capable of achieving a power coupling connection. The input end is configured to receive power input, and the output end is configured to output power to the adjusting component 3. The output end of the adjusting component 3 can be connected to the side wall of the cabinet 2 via an abutment or other mechanical connection method to apply force to the side wall of the cabinet 2 along the width direction of the cabinet 1 or along a direction inclined to the width direction of the cabinet 1.
[0082] Since the adjustment component 3 is set on the cabinet 1, while the position of the cabinet 2 usually remains unchanged, the adjustment component 3 can apply force to the side wall of the cabinet 2 to control the movement of the cabinet 1 within the cabinet 2, thereby adjusting the distance between the side wall of the cabinet 1 and the side wall of the cabinet 2. The operation is simple and convenient, ensuring the aesthetics of the refrigeration equipment layout within the cabinet 2 and improving the installation efficiency of the refrigeration equipment.
[0083] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the adjustment component 3 includes: a mounting base 31, a transmission component 32, and a power conversion component 33;
[0084] Mounting base 31 is disposed on the top wall of housing 1, transmission component 32 is disposed on mounting base 31 and configured to receive power input; power conversion component 33 is disposed on mounting base 31, power conversion component 33 is connected to transmission component 32 and configured to be connected to the side wall of housing 2.
[0085] Understandably, the operator can apply driving force to the transmission component 32 using tools such as electric wrenches and pliers. The transmission component 32 then transmits the driving force to the power conversion component 33, which converts the force applied by the transmission component 32 into a force that applies to the side wall of the cabinet 2, including pulling or pushing forces. This controls the movement of the cabinet 1 within the cabinet 2, allowing for adjustment of the distance between the cabinet 1 and the cabinet 2, thus saving manpower.
[0086] For example, an operator can apply a force to the transmission member 32 along the thickness direction of the housing 1. The transmission member 32 transmits the received power to the power conversion member 33 along the thickness direction of the housing 1. In this case, the power conversion member 33 can be configured to include a transmission head and a drive arm. The transmission head and the transmission member 32 are connected. The first end of the transmission head and the drive arm are slidably engaged by a ramp. The second end of the drive arm extends toward the side wall of the housing 2. The drive arm is movably mounted on the mounting base 31 along its extension direction. When the transmission member 32 drives the transmission head to move along its extension direction, power output can be achieved along the extension direction of the drive arm based on the ramp engagement between the transmission head and the drive arm. Obviously, the power conversion member 33 converts the force along the extension direction of the transmission member 32 into a force along the extension direction of the drive arm.
[0087] For example, an operator can drive the transmission member 32 to rotate. In this case, the power conversion member 33 can be configured to include a gear and a rack. The transmission member 32 is connected to the gear, and the gear and rack mesh. The rack is movably mounted on the mounting base 31 along its extension direction. When the transmission member 32 drives the gear to rotate, the gear can drive the rack to move along its extension direction toward the side wall of the cabinet 2 to achieve power output along the extension direction of the rack. Obviously, the power conversion member 33 converts the rotational force applied to the transmission member 32 into a force along the extension direction of the rack.
[0088] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the power conversion component 33 includes: a first slider 331, a second slider 332, and a guide structure 333;
[0089] The first slider 331 is connected to the transmission component 32, which drives the first slider 331 to move along the thickness direction of the housing 1. The second slider 332 is movably disposed on the mounting base 31 along the width direction of the housing 1, and one end of the second slider 332 is configured to abut against the side wall of the cabinet 2. The guide structure 333 is disposed between the first slider 331 and the second slider 332, and the guide structure 333 is used to guide the first slider 331 and the second slider 332 to slide relative to each other along a first direction, which is inclined relative to the width direction of the housing 1.
[0090] Understandably, the operator can apply force to the transmission component 32 along the thickness direction of the housing 1, which will drive the first slider 331 to move along the thickness direction of the housing 1. Since the first slider 331 and the second slider 332 slide relative to each other through the guide structure 333, and the second slider 332 slides with the mounting base 31 along the width direction of the housing 1, when the first slider 331 moves along the thickness direction of the housing 1, the first slider 331 applies force to the second slider 332 through the guide structure 333, generating a thrust on the second slider 332 along the width direction. Thus, the first slider 331 drives the second slider 332 to slide relative to the mounting base 31 along the width direction of the housing 1, so that the second slider 332 moves closer to or further away from the side wall of the cabinet 2.
[0091] like Figure 8 and Figure 10 As shown, the mounting base 31 can be provided with a groove that extends along the width direction of the housing 1. The second slider 332 is movably disposed in the groove along the extension direction of the groove, so that the second slider 332 is movably disposed on the mounting base 31 along the width direction of the housing 1.
[0092] Meanwhile, the guide structure 333 can be configured to include a first inclined surface and a second inclined surface, the first inclined surface and the second inclined surface are in contact with each other and both extend along a first direction, the first inclined surface is disposed on the first slider 331 and the second inclined surface is disposed on the second slider 332.
[0093] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the transmission component 32 includes an adjusting bolt, which extends along the thickness direction of the housing 1;
[0094] The first slider 331 is provided with a threaded hole that extends along the thickness direction of the housing 1 and is threadedly engaged with the adjusting bolt; wherein, the first slider 331 and the mounting base 31 are slidably engaged along the thickness direction of the housing 1.
[0095] It is understandable that the adjusting bolt includes a screw head and a screw rod, with one end of the screw head and one end of the screw rod connected, and the other end of the screw rod extending into the threaded hole and threadedly connected to the threaded hole.
[0096] A guide bar can be provided on the first slider 331, and a guide hole can be provided on the mounting base 31. The guide hole extends along the thickness direction of the housing 1, and the guide bar is movably inserted into the guide hole along the extension direction of the guide hole. Based on the mutual cooperation of the guide bar and the guide hole, the first slider 331 can slide relative to the mounting base 31 along the thickness direction of the housing 1.
[0097] In practical applications, the operator can connect tools such as an Allen wrench to the screw head to drive the adjusting bolt to rotate. Based on the sliding fit between the first slider 331 and the mounting base 31, the adjusting bolt can drive the first slider 331 along the thickness direction of the housing 1. Since the adjusting bolt and the first slider 331 are connected by a thread, this design can precisely control the stroke of the first slider 331 along the thickness direction of the housing 1. Furthermore, based on the sliding fit between the first slider 331 and the second slider 332, the movement of the second slider 332 closer to or further away from the side wall of the cabinet 2 can be precisely controlled.
[0098] In some embodiments, such as Figure 9 As shown, in order to facilitate the relative sliding of the first slider 331 and the second slider 332 along the first direction, the guide structure 333 includes: a guide groove 3331 and a guide rib 3332. Both the guide groove 3331 and the guide rib 3332 extend along the first direction, and the guide rib 3332 is movably disposed in the guide groove 3331 along the first direction.
[0099] One of the guide groove 3331 and the guide rib 3332 is provided in the first slider 331, and the other of the guide groove 3331 and the guide rib 3332 is provided in the second slider 332.
[0100] For example, a first slider 331 is disposed on the upper side of a second slider 332, a guide groove 3331 is disposed on the bottom surface of the first slider 331, and a guide rib 3332 is disposed on the top surface of the second slider 332. The bottom surface of the first slider 331 and the top surface of the second slider 332 are in contact.
[0101] Since the thickness and width directions of the housing 1 are perpendicular, the first direction is set at an angle to the thickness and width directions of the housing 1, respectively. When the first slider 331 moves along the thickness direction of the housing 1, the guide groove 3331 and the guide rib 3332 slide relative to each other. The groove wall of the guide groove 3331 will exert a force on the side wall of the guide rib 3332, generating a thrust on the second slider 332 along the width direction. Thus, the first slider 331 drives the second slider 332 to slide relative to the mounting base 31 along the width direction of the housing 1, so that the second slider 332 moves closer to or away from the side wall of the cabinet 2.
[0102] Meanwhile, in order to facilitate the first slider 331 to drive the second slider 332 to slide along the width direction of the box 1 through the guide structure 333, the angle between the first direction and the width direction of the box 1 can be set to 60° to 75°, for example, the angle can be 60°, 65°, 70°, 75° and other suitable angles.
[0103] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the refrigeration equipment also includes: a positioning frame 4, which is configured to be located on the side wall of the cabinet 2;
[0104] When the second slider 332 abuts against the side wall of the cabinet 2, the second slider 332 and the positioning frame 4 abut against each other along the thickness direction of the cabinet 1.
[0105] It is understood that the positioning frame 4 can be detachably installed on the side wall of the cabinet 2 by screws or bolts, and the positioning frame 4 can be made of aluminum or copper.
[0106] In practical applications, based on the power input by the operator to the transmission component 32, the second slider 332 corresponding to the power conversion component 33 can abut against the side wall of the cabinet 2 to adjust the distance between the side wall of the box 1 and the side wall of the cabinet 2. After the box 1 is adjusted, the second slider 332 and the positioning frame 4 abut against each other along the thickness direction of the box 1, and the box 1 can be positioned along the thickness direction of the box 1.
[0107] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 and Figure 11 As shown, the positioning frame 4 includes a positioning hole 410, which extends along the height direction of the housing 1; when the second slider 332 abuts against the side wall of the cabinet 2, the second slider 332 passes through the positioning hole 410 and abuts against the hole wall of the positioning hole 410.
[0108] It is understood that the positioning frame 4 includes a body 41 and a hanging arm 42. The body 41 can be detachably installed on the side wall of the cabinet 2 using fasteners such as bolts. The tail end of the hanging arm 42 is connected to the body 41, and the head end of the hanging arm 42 is hung on the side of the cabinet 2 facing the user. A positioning hole 410 is provided on the body 41, and the second slider 332 can pass through the positioning hole 410 along the width direction of the cabinet 1 to apply force to the side wall of the cabinet 2.
[0109] Since the positioning hole 410 is configured to extend along the height direction of the cabinet 1, the second slider 332 can pass through the positioning hole 410 to abut against the side wall of the cabinet 2 when the height of the cabinet 1 changes within a certain range. This design can ensure that the positioning frame 4 can be adapted to the adjustment component 3 on the cabinet 1 of different heights, so as to achieve positioning of the cabinet 1 along the thickness direction of the cabinet 1 based on the mutual cooperation of the positioning frame 4 and the second slider 332.
[0110] In some embodiments, such as Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 10 As shown, in order to achieve the integrated design of the adjustment component 3, the mounting base 31 has a receiving cavity 311 and a power input port 312 and a power output port 313 communicating with the receiving cavity 311;
[0111] The transmission component 32 and the power conversion component 33 are respectively disposed in the receiving cavity 311, the power input port 312 and the transmission component 32 are disposed opposite to each other, and the power output port 313 and the power conversion component 33 are disposed opposite to each other.
[0112] For example, the power input port 312 is constructed along the thickness direction of the housing 1 on the side of the mounting base 31 facing the user, and the power input port 312 corresponds to one end of the transmission member 32 so that the operator can pass the operating tool through the power input port 312 to apply force to the transmission member 32.
[0113] Meanwhile, the power output port 313 is constructed along the width direction of the housing 1 on one side of the mounting base 31 facing the side wall of the cabinet 2, so that the second slider 332 corresponding to the power conversion component 33 passes through the power output port 313 to apply force to the side wall of the cabinet 2.
[0114] In some application scenarios, in order to ensure the travel of the second slider 332 corresponding to the power conversion component 33, two power output ports 313 can be provided. The two power output ports 313 are arranged opposite to each other on both sides of the mounting base 31 along the width direction of the housing 1.
[0115] In some embodiments, such as Figure 7 and Figure 10 As shown, the mounting base 31 includes: a base 3101 and a cover 3102; the base 3101 is connected to the housing 1, and the base 3101 is provided with a power input port 312 and a power output port 313; the cover 3102 is connected to the base 3101, and a receiving cavity 311 is formed between the cover 3102 and the base 3101.
[0116] The base 3101 has a receiving groove, and the cover 3102 is placed over the opening of the receiving groove to form a receiving cavity 311 between the cover 3102 and the base 3101.
[0117] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the adjustment component 3 is set on the top wall of the box 1 and is located in the redundant space between the top wall of the box 1 and the top wall of the cabinet 2. This design facilitates the layout of the adjustment component 3 and allows for the adjustment of the distance between the side wall of the box 1 and the side wall of the cabinet 2.
[0118] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, there are two adjustment components 3. One of the adjustment components 3 is located on the left side of the box 1 and is opposite to the left side wall of the cabinet 2. The other adjustment component 3 is located on the right side of the box 1 and is opposite to the right side wall of the cabinet 2.
[0119] Understandably, the adjustment component 3 located on the left side of the cabinet 1 is used to adjust the distance between the left side wall of the cabinet 1 and the left side wall of the cabinet 2, and the adjustment component 3 located on the right side of the cabinet 1 is used to adjust the distance between the right side wall of the cabinet 1 and the right side wall of the cabinet 2. The two adjustment components 3 work together to ensure that the distance between the left side wall of the cabinet 1 and the left side wall of the cabinet 2 and the distance between the right side wall of the cabinet 1 and the right side wall of the cabinet 2 are kept consistent, thus ensuring the aesthetics of the cabinet 1 installed inside the cabinet 2.
[0120] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the refrigeration equipment also includes: a bracket 5, which is detachably connected to the top wall of the housing 1, and an adjustment component 3 is detachably mounted on the bracket 5. The bracket 5 is located on the upper side of the hinge of the refrigeration equipment.
[0121] Understandably, the bracket 5 can be detachably connected to the top wall of the housing 1 using bolts, screws or other locking devices. The bracket 5 can be made of aluminum or copper. The adjustment component 3 can be detachably connected to the bracket 5 using bolts, screws or other locking devices.
[0122] Since the bracket 5 is located on the upper side of the hinge 8 of the refrigeration equipment, and the hinge is located near the front side of the cabinet 1, the adjustment component 3 is located near the front side of the cabinet 1. This design allows the adjustment component 3 to be installed using the bracket 5, while also making it easier for the operator to adjust the distance between the side wall of the front end of the cabinet 1 and the side wall of the cabinet 2 through the adjustment component 3. This not only reduces the difficulty of operation for the operator, but also helps to improve the adjustment efficiency of the cabinet 1.
[0123] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various combinations, modifications, or equivalent substitutions of the technical solutions of the present invention do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention and should be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
