Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shelf glass support technology, and in particular to a shelf glass support structure with adjustable spacing. Background Technology
[0002] A refrigerator is a refrigeration device that maintains a constant low temperature. It's also a product that keeps food or other items at a constant low temperature. Refrigerators are used to store fresh food. Generally, a refrigerator has two storage spaces: a refrigerator compartment and a freezer compartment. Most modern refrigerators have glass shelves in the refrigerator compartment. Tempered glass shelves are a type of interior decoration for refrigerators, mainly serving to support items and divide the refrigerator compartments. Made primarily of tempered glass, they have high strength and durability, effectively supporting various items and separating different compartments, making it convenient for users to categorize and store food.
[0003] An existing adjustable-spacing shelf glass support structure makes it inconvenient for staff to adjust the shelf position according to the actual location of the product inside the refrigerator, thus affecting the overall flexibility and ease of operation of the equipment. Utility Model Content
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides an adjustable spacing shelf glass support structure.
[0005] This utility model is achieved using the following technical solution: an adjustable-spacing shelf glass support structure, including a mounting bracket and a second sliding guide rail. The mounting bracket has a mounting slot inside, a fixed support plate is fixedly connected to the surface of the mounting bracket, a return spring is fixedly connected to the surface of the fixed support plate, a connecting support plate is fixedly connected to the surface of the return spring, a sliding roller is rotatably connected inside the connecting support plate, a bearing support plate is inserted inside the mounting bracket, connecting plates are fixedly connected to the upper and lower ends of the bearing support plate, a first sliding guide rail is fixedly connected to the top of the second sliding guide rail, a sliding groove is opened inside the first sliding guide rail, and a second sliding guide rail is fixedly connected to the bottom of the second sliding guide rail.
[0006] Through the above technical solution, the return spring is connected in series with the fixed support plate through the connecting support plate to form a symmetrical elastic network. After adjustment, it automatically returns to the initial equilibrium position, avoiding accidental contact that could lead to structural imbalance.
[0007] As a further improvement to the above solution, the number of mounting slots is set to several, and the several mounting slots are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides with the second sliding guide rail as the center, and the second sliding guide rail is inserted into the interior of the mounting slots.
[0008] As a further improvement to the above scheme, the number of fixed support plates is set to four, and two of them are grouped together. The four fixed support plates are symmetrically distributed vertically around the supporting plate.
[0009] Through the above technical solution, the supporting plate is fixed to the sliding guide rail by several symmetrically distributed connecting plates, which can be inserted and locked without tools. When replacing the glass, the support structure can be quickly disassembled, shortening the maintenance time. The elastic deformation design of the connecting plates automatically compensates for installation errors, ensuring the flatness of the glass.
[0010] As a further improvement to the above solution, the sliding roller is slidably connected inside the first sliding guide rail, the sliding roller is slidably connected inside the second sliding guide rail, and the sliding roller is slidably connected inside the sliding groove.
[0011] As a further improvement to the above solution, the number of the reset springs and connecting support plates is set to several, and the several reset springs and connecting support plates are symmetrically distributed around the bearing support plate.
[0012] As a further improvement to the above solution, the connecting support plate is located at the top of the first sliding guide rail, the connecting support plate is located at the bottom of the sliding groove, and the number of connecting plates is set to several, with the several connecting plates symmetrically distributed around the supporting support plate.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This invention features a first sliding guide rail and a second sliding guide rail that are nested and linked by sliding grooves. The sliding roller is simultaneously constrained by the movement trajectory of both rails, supporting multi-dimensional adjustment in the horizontal, vertical, and tilt directions. It can adapt to glass of different sizes. The line contact design between the sliding roller and the guide rail reduces frictional resistance, allowing for smooth adjustment with one hand. Through dual-rail multi-directional adjustment, elastic reset balance, symmetrical stable support, and modular design, it solves the problems of cumbersome adjustment, poor stability, and high maintenance costs of traditional glass support structures. It also features high-precision adaptation, convenient operation, long lifespan, and strong environmental adaptability.
[0014] This utility model features a separate design for the sliding rollers and guide rails, with the connecting support plate located in the top clearance space of the guide rails. Wear-resistant rollers can be replaced individually, reducing maintenance costs. The contact surfaces between the guide rails and rollers are treated with hard anodizing, improving corrosion resistance and making it suitable for humid or dusty environments. The mounting slots are symmetrically distributed around the second sliding guide rail, supporting parallel installation of multiple guide rails. The number of guide rail sets can be increased as needed to simultaneously support multiple layers of glass, adapting to large shelving systems. The standardized slot interfaces are compatible with guide rails of different specifications, facilitating future upgrades or replacements. Attached Figure Description
