[0035] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to specific embodiments of this application and the accompanying drawings.

[0036] like Figure 1-2 As shown, a box-type rapid freezing device for fruits and vegetables includes: a box body 1, a refrigeration box 2 is provided on the upper part of the box body 1, a plurality of cooling pipes 6 are arranged parallel to each other at intervals inside the box body 1, the cooling pipes 6 have a serpentine structure, and the parallel pipe sections of a single cooling pipe 6 form a plurality of storage spaces, a storage rack 7 is provided in the storage space, the storage rack 7 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity side wall of the box body 1, and a plurality of storage boxes 8 are provided on the storage rack 7;

[0037] One end of the cooling pipe 6 is connected to the refrigeration box 2 via the liquid supply pipe 4, and the other end is connected to the refrigeration box 2 via the return pipe 5. The cooling pipe 6 is filled with coolant, and the refrigeration box 2 is used to provide the cooling pipe 6 with coolant to cool it to a preset temperature.

[0038] The cooling pipe 6 adopts a serpentine structure, which, compared to a straight cooling plate, significantly increases the contact area with the surrounding air and the fruits and vegetables inside the storage box 8. This means that under the same coolant flow and temperature conditions, the serpentine cooling pipe can more efficiently transfer cold energy to the surrounding fruits and vegetables, accelerating their cooling speed and achieving rapid freezing. Compared to single-sided cooling and air-cooling structures, it has a greater advantage in cooling efficiency. The new structure can reduce cooling time by approximately 30% and save 30% of energy consumption. Furthermore, the parallel arrangement of several cooling pipes at intervals makes the cold energy distribution inside the compartment more uniform, ensuring that every storage space is cooled by the cooling pipes, avoiding localized excessively high or low temperatures. This ensures that fruits and vegetables placed in different locations are frozen in a relatively consistent low-temperature environment, which is beneficial for improving the freezing quality of fruits and vegetables and reducing the problem of uneven quality caused by temperature differences.

[0039] like Figure 1-2As shown, the compartment 1 has an opening on one side, and an automatic opening and closing door 3 is provided at the opening. A first connecting part 101 is provided at the upper part of the opening of the compartment 1, and a third connecting part 301 is provided at the upper part of the automatic opening and closing door 3. The first connecting part 101 and the third connecting part 301 are rotatably connected by a pin.

[0040] The two vertical sidewalls outside the opening of the compartment 1 are symmetrically provided with second connecting parts 102, and the automatic opening and closing door 3 is symmetrically provided with fourth connecting parts 302. A telescopic rod 10 is provided between adjacent second connecting parts 102 and fourth connecting parts 302, and the two ends of the telescopic rod 10 are rotatably connected to the second connecting parts 102 and the fourth connecting parts 302, respectively. The automatic opening and closing door 3 can effectively improve the sealing performance of the compartment 1. In the closed state, the door can tightly seal the compartment opening, preventing dust, moisture, foreign objects, etc. from entering the compartment and protecting the equipment and items inside the compartment from the influence of the external environment. Furthermore, the automatic opening and closing door can also increase the security of the compartment. By setting door locks and other devices, unauthorized personnel can be prevented from entering the compartment, ensuring the safety of the items inside the compartment.

[0041] like Figure 2 As shown, a sealing ring 303 is provided on the side wall where the automatic opening and closing door 3 mates with the opening of the compartment 1, and a sealing groove is provided on the compartment 1 to mate with the sealing ring 303. The cooperation of the sealing ring 303 and the sealing groove improves the sealing performance between the automatic opening and closing door 3 and the compartment 1, preventing cold air leakage inside the compartment 1 and thus reducing energy consumption.

[0042] In one specific embodiment, the interior of the compartment 1 and the automatic opening and closing door 3 is provided with an insulation layer. The insulation layer reduces heat exchange, and the energy consumption required for the compartment 1 to maintain the internal temperature is significantly reduced. The refrigeration equipment does not need to be frequently started to replenish the lost cooling capacity, thereby saving electricity.

[0043] like Figure 3-4 As shown, the storage rack 7 includes a vertically arranged fixing plate 701, and a horizontally arranged placement plate 702 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing plate 701. The fixing plate 701 has a plurality of fixing holes 703, which are engaged with the side wall of the compartment 1 by fixing bolts. The placement plate 702 has a plurality of placement slots 704, which are through the middle of the placement slots 704 and are used to place the storage box 8.

[0044] By creating several fixing holes 703 on the fixing plate 701 and engaging with the side wall of the compartment 1 using fixing bolts, the shelf 7 can be easily installed inside the compartment 1 to make full use of the space. Furthermore, the fixing bolt connection provides a reliable fixing effect, ensuring that the shelf 7 will not easily shake or shift during use, thus guaranteeing its stability and safety.

[0045] The placement slot 704 is used to place the storage box 8, and the middle of the placement slot 704 is through-hole. This design allows the temperature of the cooling pipe 6 to be better transferred to the objects inside the storage box 8, thereby improving the cooling efficiency of the cooling pipe 6. Preferably, the shape of the placement slot 704 is adapted to the storage box 8 to prevent the storage box 8 from shaking or falling during movement.

[0046] like Figure 4 As shown, a baffle 705 is inserted into the side of the placement slot 704 away from the fixing plate 701. The baffle 705 can block the storage box 8 from sliding out of the placement slot 704. Especially when the box 1 moves or is subjected to vibration, the baffle 705 can effectively protect the items in the storage box 8 and reduce the risk of damage to the items.

[0047] like Figure 4 As shown, the storage box 8 includes a support frame 801 with an opening at the top and support mesh 802 on the remaining side walls. A handle 803 is provided on one vertical side wall of the support frame 801. The side walls formed by the support mesh 802 allow air to circulate freely inside and outside the storage box 8. In a freezing environment, this facilitates the entry of cold air into the storage box and the formation of good convection circulation. Compared to a closed storage box, the support mesh structure does not obstruct the flow of cold air, allowing all corners inside the box to quickly reach a lower temperature, ensuring even cooling of items and achieving a good freezing effect.

[0048] like Figure 3 As shown, the cooling pipes 6 are divided into two groups within the inner cavity of the compartment 1 and arranged symmetrically, forming a passageway between the two groups of cooling pipes 6. Each group of cooling pipes 6 contains a shelf 7 and a storage box 8. This structural design fully utilizes the internal space of the compartment 1, rationally distributing the cooling pipes 6, shelves 7, and storage boxes 8, thus avoiding space waste. By placing the cooling pipes 6 on both sides of the compartment and leaving a passageway in the middle, both the cooling effect and sufficient space are provided for the storage of items and the operation of personnel, improving the space utilization rate of the compartment.

[0049] In one specific embodiment, the refrigeration box 2 is equipped with a compressor, a storage tank, and a booster pump. The refrigeration box 2 can adopt conventional existing technology, and its specific structure will not be described again.

[0050] like Figure 1 As shown, an operation panel 11, a display panel 12, and a control box 13 are installed on the outer wall of the compartment 1, and a temperature sensor is installed inside the compartment 1. Operators can set various operating parameters of the compartment 1 through the operation panel 11. For example, a target temperature can be set, and the compartment temperature can be adjusted to a suitable range according to the storage requirements of different items; parameters such as cooling time and defrosting cycle can also be set to achieve personalized operating modes. The display panel 12 can display the temperature inside the compartment 1 in real time, allowing operators to intuitively understand whether the current temperature inside the compartment is within the normal range. In addition, it can also display the operating status of the refrigeration system, such as the compressor's working time and cooling power, facilitating monitoring of the equipment's operating status. The temperature sensor, installed inside the compartment 1, can accurately sense temperature changes inside the compartment in real time. It converts the temperature signal into an electrical signal and transmits it to the control box 13, providing accurate data support for the control box's decision-making.

[0051] like Figure 1 As shown, the lower four corners of the compartment 1 are provided with support feet 9. During the installation of the compartment, the support feet 9 make the positioning of the compartment 1 more accurate and convenient, ensuring smooth connection between the compartment and other equipment or facilities, and improving the installation quality.

[0052] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the inventive concept of the present utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
