Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of refrigerator manufacturing technology, and in particular to an installation structure for a display component, a refrigerator door, and a refrigerator. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the display components of smart refrigerators are usually pre-installed and then foamed. Before the refrigerator door is foamed, the display components (including communication lines, control modules, etc.) are pre-installed on the inside of the door and then fixed with polyurethane foam. However, this process has the following drawbacks: (1) Difficult to repair. If the display components are damaged, the foam layer needs to be broken to disassemble them, which is costly and cannot guarantee the sealing. (2) Cannot be upgraded. Display technology iterates quickly, but the pre-installed components cannot be replaced, resulting in the door panel function being fixed and unable to be upgraded. (3) High process complexity. The pre-installed components need to complete all the wiring connections before foaming, which can easily lead to a decrease in yield due to operational errors.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a new display assembly mounting structure to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0031] In one embodiment, a seal is provided between the protrusion 25 and the groove 14 to prevent external or internal water from seeping into the contact area and causing a short circuit. In this embodiment, the seal is a double-layer silicone sealing ring, ensuring that the contact area of the first contact portion 12 and the second contact portion 22 achieves an IPX4 waterproof rating.

Moreover, the assembly process is simple and convenient, reducing the complexity of operation and improving the product yield.
[0047] In this embodiment, the first connecting portion 11 and the second connecting portion 21 include magnetic components that attract each other, and the magnetic components are located around the first contact portion 12 or the second contact portion 22. Specifically, the surface of the refrigerator door 1 is provided with a first magnetic component 13, and the back of the display assembly 2 is provided with a corresponding second magnetic component 23. Through the magnetic attraction between the first magnetic component 13 and the second magnetic component 23, the display assembly 2 is attracted to the refrigerator door 1.
[0048] In this embodiment, the first magnetic attraction component 13 is a magnetic sheet, and the second magnetic attraction component 23 is a neodymium iron boron magnet. The two can attract each other to ensure the fixation of the display assembly 2 and the refrigerator door 1.
[0049] In one embodiment, the first connecting portion 11 includes a recess 14 recessed inward from the refrigerator door 1, and the second connecting portion 21 includes a protrusion 25 protruding outward from the back of the display assembly 2.

One end of the second contact portion 22 protrudes from the back side of the display assembly 2, and the other end is electrically connected to the display assembly 2. When the second connecting portion 21 is connected to the first connecting portion 11, the second contact portion 22 is aligned with and abuts against the first contact portion 12 to achieve electrical conduction.
[0058] In one embodiment, the second connecting part 21 and the first connecting part 11 are quickly connected by magnetic attraction, snap-fit or slide rail, so that the display component 2 can be quickly disassembled and assembled, which facilitates the subsequent maintenance and upgrade of the display component 2.

When the second latching part 26 is latched onto the first latching part 15, the second contact part 22 elastically abuts against the first contact part 12.
[0061] In this embodiment, the first latching part 15 is an L-shaped protrusion extending along the height direction of the refrigerator door 1, and there are two of them. The two first latching parts 15 are respectively located on both sides of the first contact part 12. Correspondingly, the second latching part 26 is an L-shaped channel, and the top height of the L-shaped channel is the same as the top height of the L-shaped protrusion. The bottom of the L-shaped channel extends to the bottom surface of the display assembly 2. When the display assembly 2 is installed on the refrigerator door 1, the bottom surface of the L-shaped channel is aligned with the L-shaped protrusion, so that the L-shaped protrusion enters the L-shaped channel. At this time, the display assembly 2 slides down along the L-shaped protrusion until the top surface of the L-shaped channel hangs on the top surface of the L-shaped protrusion, and the positions of the two correspond exactly.
[0062] In this embodiment, the first contact part 12 is a spring pin and the second contact part 22 is a spring sheet. The spring pin is located in the groove 14. During the downward sliding of the display assembly 2, the spring sheet slides downward along the surface of the refrigerator door 1. Since the spring sheet is elastic, it will be pressed into the display assembly 2 during the downward sliding process. When the spring sheet slides into the groove 14, it pops out under the action of its elastic force, thereby abutting against the spring pin and realizing electrical conduction.
[0063] In this embodiment, the first latching part 15 and the second latching part 26 are designed to enable quick mounting and dismounting of the display assembly 2 onto the refrigerator door 1, while also ensuring that the gap between the display assembly 2 and the refrigerator door 1 is small, preventing external dust or water from entering between them.
[0064] In this embodiment, one end of the spring pin is embedded in the refrigerator door 1, and the area around the spring pin is sealed by a sealing ring or nano-coating to prevent condensate from entering the spring pin area and causing a short circuit.
[0065] In one embodiment, a seal is provided around the groove 14 to prevent external or internal water from seeping into the contact area and causing a short circuit. In this embodiment, the seal is a double-layer silicone sealing ring, ensuring that the contact area of the first contact portion 12 and the second contact portion 22 achieves an IPX4 waterproof rating.
[0066] This utility model also provides a refrigerator door 1, including the above-mentioned installation structure of the display component 2. The simple installation structure enables quick assembly and disassembly of the display component 2 and the refrigerator door 1, which can reduce the complexity of assembly during the manufacturing process of the refrigerator door 1, improve the product yield, and facilitate the subsequent maintenance and upgrade of the display component 2.
[0067] This utility model also provides a refrigerator, including the refrigerator door 1 described above.
[0068] The refrigerator of this utility model solves the problem of difficult maintenance and upgrade of display component 2 caused by traditional foaming process by using a separate installation structure of display component 2 and refrigerator door 1. It is suitable for high-end smart refrigerators, can significantly reduce after-sales costs and improve product iteration flexibility, and has a wide market.
[0069] Although the present invention has been described with reference to preferred embodiments, various modifications can be made thereto and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the invention. In particular, the technical features mentioned in the various embodiments can be combined in any manner, provided there is no structural conflict. The present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
