Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a side handle structure for a cabinet door and a refrigerator. Background Technology

[0002] Refrigerated display cases are commonly used for storing and displaying food and beverages. The catering industry often uses them extensively to meet the large-scale storage needs of ingredients and drinks. Currently, the handles of refrigerated display cases on the market are usually fixed to the front of the door. This means that during transportation, the packaging boxes need to be larger to accommodate the handles, increasing both transportation and packaging costs. Furthermore, handles directly on the front of the door negatively impact the aesthetics of the refrigerated display case.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to make further improvements. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, the purpose of this utility model is to propose a side handle structure for cabinet doors and a refrigerated cabinet. This solution can reduce transportation and packaging costs.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a side handle structure for a cabinet door, which includes a cabinet door frame and a handle body. A mounting cavity is provided on one side of the cabinet door frame, and the mounting cavity extends vertically. The handle body is vertically arranged and assembled in the mounting cavity. Vertically extending mounting grooves are provided at both ends of the handle body, and mounting ribs that cooperate with the mounting grooves are provided on the cabinet door frame.

[0006] In one or more embodiments, the outer side of the handle body is fitted with the surface of the mounting cavity.

[0007] In one or more embodiments, the handle body has a vertically extending handle recess with an arc-shaped cross-section.

[0008] In one or more embodiments, the cabinet door frame includes an upper frame strip, a left frame strip, a lower frame strip, and a right frame strip connected in sequence. Adjacent frame strips are connected and fixed by corner brackets. The handle body is assembled on the left frame strip or the right frame strip. The corner bracket has a cover that covers the upper and lower ends of the handle body.

[0009] In one or more embodiments, the corner code has two insertion ends, and each end of the upper frame strip, left frame strip, lower frame strip and right frame strip is provided with a cavity, and the insertion end is connected to the cavity.

[0010] In one or more embodiments, the handle body is an aluminum extrusion structure, and the corner bracket is made of plastic.

[0011] This utility model also provides a refrigerator, which has the above-mentioned side handle structure.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are: the handle body is assembled on the side of the cabinet door frame, so the structure of the handle body is difficult to see directly in appearance, making the handle body a concealed handle, reducing the impact of the handle body on the aesthetics of the refrigerator; moreover, since the handle body adopts a concealed design, it will not affect packaging and transportation. Attached Figure Description

[0013] Figure 1 This is a sectional view of the handle body assembled to the cabinet door frame in this embodiment;

[0014] Figure 2 This is an exploded view of the cabinet door in this embodiment. Detailed Implementation

[0015] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model. The preferred embodiments of the present utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the drawings is to supplement the textual description with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present utility model, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0016] See appendix Figure 1-2 This application provides a side handle structure for a cabinet door, comprising a cabinet door frame 100 and a handle body 1. The cabinet door frame 100 has a mounting recess on one side, extending vertically. The handle body 1 is vertically positioned and fitted into the mounting recess. Vertically extending mounting grooves are provided at both ends of the handle body 1. The cabinet door frame 100 has mounting ribs 2 that mate with the mounting grooves. The handle body is installed onto the cabinet door frame through the engagement of the mounting grooves and mounting ribs. Utilizing the space of the cabinet door frame to install the handle body allows for a concealed installation, preserving the aesthetic appearance of the cabinet door and avoiding increased packaging and transportation costs. The outer surface of the handle body 1 fits snugly against the surface of the mounting recess, improving the fit between the handle body and the cabinet door frame and making the structure more stable after installation.

[0017] The handle body 1 has a vertically extending handle recess 3. The cross-section of the handle recess is arc-shaped. The arc-shaped handle recess fits the shape of human fingers, making the user feel comfortable when pulling the handle body.

[0018] The cabinet door frame 100 includes an upper frame strip 4, a left frame strip 5, a lower frame strip 6, and a right frame strip 7 connected in sequence. Adjacent frame strips are connected and fixed by corner brackets 8. The handle body 1 is assembled onto the left frame strip 5 or the right frame strip 7. The corner bracket 8 has cover 9 that covers the upper and lower ends of the handle body 1. Connecting and fixing the frame strips with corner brackets can improve the structural strength of the assembled frame, and the corner brackets can also enhance the structural strength of the splicing position. At the same time, the cover of the corner bracket can cover the handle body end, which has an aesthetic effect and also limits the position of the handle body.

[0019] The corner bracket 8 has two insertion ends 81. Each end of the upper frame strip 4, left frame strip 5, lower frame strip 6, and right frame strip 7 has a cavity 10. The insertion ends 81 connect with the cavities 10, allowing for quick assembly of the frame strips and improving production efficiency. During assembly, the handle body is first connected to the left or right frame. Then, corner brackets are inserted into both ends of the left or right frame to fix and limit the handle body. Finally, the other frame strips are assembled one by one to complete the installation of the handle body.

[0020] The handle body 1 is made of aluminum extrusion structure, and the corner bracket 8 is made of plastic. The specific materials can be selected or replaced according to actual needs, and no restrictions are imposed here.

[0021] This application also provides a refrigerator having the side handle structure described above.

[0022] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. The protection scope of the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Any equivalent modifications or changes made by those skilled in the art based on the content disclosed in the present utility model should be included in the protection scope recorded in the claims.
