Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of refrigeration technology, and in particular to a refrigerator. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of user demand, side-by-side refrigerators have appeared on the market. A side-by-side refrigerator includes a cabinet and at least two doors. The cabinet has a storage compartment for refrigerating or freezing items. The two doors are arranged along the width of the cabinet and are used to open or close the storage compartment together.

[0003] In related technologies, side-by-side refrigerators typically include a vertical shelf assembly. This assembly is mounted on one of the doors and can rotate relative to the door around the height of the refrigerator. When both doors are closed, the vertical shelf assembly engages with magnetic strips on both doors to seal the gap between them and prevent cold air leakage. Currently, the vertical shelf assembly typically includes a cover, a base, an insulation layer, and a metal plate. The cover fits over the base, and the insulation layer fills the space between the cover and the base. A first groove is usually provided on the side of the cover facing away from the base to accommodate the metal plate, which is used for magnetic connection with the magnetic strips on the door.

[0004] To maintain a consistent thickness of the cover, the first groove on the cover creates a space on the side facing the base. However, due to the size limitations of the vertical partition assembly, this space is typically small. Since the insulation layer usually comprises particles of a certain size, such as polyurethane foam, it cannot fill the space, resulting in a cavity. Because it's difficult to ensure the gas inside the cavity is sealed, it may be in a flowing state, potentially affecting the insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model discloses a refrigerator that, by setting a blocking structure in the second space, can reduce the gas in the second space, thereby improving the heat preservation performance of the vertical partition assembly.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, in a first aspect, this utility model discloses a refrigerator, comprising:

[0007] A box, the box having a storage compartment having an opening;

[0008] A first door is rotatably connected to the housing, and the first door is configured to open and close part of the opening;

[0009] A second door is rotatably connected to the housing, and the second door is configured to open and close the remaining portion of the opening;

[0010] A vertical partition assembly is rotatably connected to the first door about the height of the box. When the first door and the second door close the opening of the storage room, the vertical partition assembly is used to seal the gap between the first door and the second door.

[0011] The vertical partition assembly includes:

[0012] Base;

[0013] A cover body, the cover body being connected to the base, the cover body comprising:

[0014] The first side is the side of the cover that faces away from the base, and a first groove is provided on the first side;

[0015] The second side is disposed opposite to the first side. The second side includes a first surface, a second surface, a third surface and a fourth surface connected in sequence. When the first door and the second door close the opening of the storage room, the first surface and the third surface are spaced apart in the width direction of the box body, and the second surface and the fourth surface are spaced apart in the depth direction of the box body. A first space is formed between the fourth surface and the base, and a second space is formed between the first surface, the second surface and the third surface that communicates with the first space.

[0016] The vertical partition assembly also includes:

[0017] A heat insulation layer is disposed within the first space;

[0018] A metal plate that covers the opening of the first groove;

[0019] A blocking structure is disposed within the second space.

[0020] The refrigerator of this application has a first surface, a second surface, a third surface, and a fourth surface connected in sequence on the second side of the lid. The first surface and the third surface are spaced apart in the width direction of the lid, and the second surface and the fourth surface are spaced apart in the depth direction of the lid, forming a second space between the first surface, the second surface, and the third surface. This allows the wall thickness of the portion of the lid with the second space to be the same as the wall thickness of the portion of the lid with the first space. As a result, the shrinkage rate of the lid during injection molding is similar, reducing the impact on the shape of the lid during molding. This facilitates a better fit between the lid and the first and second doors, and helps to ensure the heat insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly.

[0021] Based on this, by setting a blocking structure in the second space, the gas in the second space can be reduced, that is, the second space contains objects rather than a complete cavity, thereby improving the thermal insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly, and thus reducing the cold leakage at the gap between the first door and the second door.

[0022] As an optional implementation, the blocking structure is configured as a protruding rib on the base, wherein when the first door and the second door close the opening of the storage room, the protruding rib extends along the depth direction of the box to block the second space.

[0023] By constructing the blocking structure as a protruding rib on the base, that is, the blocking structure and the base are integrally molded, the structural design of the vertical partition assembly can be simplified, and the assembly difficulty of the vertical partition assembly can be reduced, eliminating the need for separate production and installation of the blocking structure.

[0024] As an optional implementation, the base includes a first plate portion and a first enclosure portion and a second enclosure portion connected to both sides of the first plate portion. When the first door and the second door close the opening of the storage room, the first enclosure portion is disposed in the depth direction of the box corresponding to the second space, and the blocking structure is disposed on the side of the first enclosure portion facing the second space.

[0025] The cover includes a first side panel having the first surface. When the first door and the second door close the opening of the storage room, the first side panel extends along the depth direction of the box to connect to the first enclosure portion.

[0026] By aligning the first enclosure panel with the second space along the depth direction of the housing, and placing the blocking structure on the side of the first enclosure panel facing the second space, the blocking structure essentially extends from the first enclosure panel along the depth direction of the housing, simplifying the manufacturing process of the base. Furthermore, the blocking structure and the first enclosure panel have the same wall thickness, ensuring a uniform wall thickness for the base. This results in consistent shrinkage during injection molding, reducing the impact on the base's shape and preventing misalignment between the base and the cover.

[0027] As an optional implementation, the second space is provided with a plurality of reinforcing ribs, which are spaced apart along the height direction of the box body. The number of blocking structures is also plurality of, which are spaced apart along the height direction of the box body and are arranged to avoid the reinforcing ribs.

[0028] By incorporating multiple reinforcing ribs within the second space, the structural strength of the cover in the second space can be improved without affecting the uniformity of the cover's wall thickness, thus extending the service life of the vertical partition assembly. Since the reinforcing ribs already occupy part of the second space, by spaced-apart and avoiding the reinforcing ribs, interference between the blocking structures and the cover during assembly can be prevented. Simultaneously, the remaining space in the second space can be blocked by the blocking structures, thereby improving the thermal insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly and reducing cold leakage at the gap between the first and second doors.

[0029] As an optional implementation, the cover includes a first side plate, a first front plate, a second side plate, a second front plate, a third side plate, a third front plate, and a fourth side plate connected in sequence. The first side plate has a first surface, the first front plate has a second surface, the second side plate has the third surface, and the second front plate has the fourth surface. A first groove is formed between the second side plate, the second front plate, and the third side plate. A third space communicating with the first space is formed between the third side plate, the third front plate, and the fourth side plate.

[0030] The second space has a dimension d1 in the width direction of the box, and the third space has a dimension d2 in the width direction of the box, satisfying: d1 < d2;

[0031] The heat insulation layer is also provided in the third space.

[0032] By setting a first side plate, a first front plate, and a second side plate, a second space is formed between the first side plate, the first front plate, and the second side plate. This allows the wall thickness of the portion of the cover with the second space to be the same as the wall thickness of the portion of the cover forming the first space. That is, the wall thicknesses of the first side plate, the first front plate, the second side plate, and the second front plate are all the same. By setting a third side plate, a third front plate, and a fourth side plate, a third space is formed between the third side plate, the third front plate, and the fourth side plate. This allows the wall thickness of the cover to be the same, which in turn ensures that the shrinkage rate of the cover during injection molding is the same, reducing the impact on the shape of the cover during molding. This facilitates a better fit between the cover and the first and second doors, and helps to ensure the thermal insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly. Based on this, by making the dimension d2 of the third space in the width direction of the box larger than the dimension d1 of the second space in the width direction of the box, even if the metal plate is not centered on the cover in the width direction of the box, the dimension d2 can be made relatively large. This allows the insulation layer to be filled into the third space when it is filled into the first space using the foaming process, avoiding the formation of a cavity in the third space. At the same time, the volume occupied by the first space is smaller, that is, the volume that cannot be filled with the insulation layer is smaller, thereby increasing the overall volume of the insulation layer and improving the thermal insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly.

[0033] As an optional implementation, the cross-section of the third front plate and the fourth side plate in the plane perpendicular to the height direction of the box is constructed as an arc, and the connection between the third front plate and the fourth side plate is a rounded transition.

[0034] By constructing the cross-sections of the third front plate and the fourth side plate as arcs, and making the connection between the third front plate and the fourth side plate a rounded transition, it is equivalent to making the third front plate and the fourth side plate into an arc plate. When the vertical partition assembly rotates relative to the first door, it is beneficial for the cover to avoid the first door, thus preventing the cover from interfering with the first door and causing the vertical partition assembly to be unable to rotate normally.

[0035] Secondly, this utility model also discloses a refrigerator, comprising:

[0036] A box, the box having a storage compartment having an opening;

[0037] A first door is rotatably connected to the housing, and the first door is configured to open and close part of the opening;

[0038] A second door is rotatably connected to the housing, and the second door is configured to open and close the remaining portion of the opening;

[0039] A vertical partition assembly is rotatably connected to the first door about the height of the box. When the first door and the second door close the opening of the storage room, the vertical partition assembly is used to seal the gap between the first door and the second door.

[0040] The vertical partition assembly includes:

[0041] Base;

[0042] A cover body, the cover body being connected to the base, the cover body comprising:

[0043] The first side is the side of the cover that faces away from the base, and a first groove is provided on the first side;

[0044] The second side is disposed opposite to the first side, and a first space is formed between the second side and the base;

[0045] The vertical partition assembly also includes:

[0046] A heat insulation layer is disposed within the first space;

[0047] A metal plate that covers the opening of the first groove;

[0048] The cover has a second groove located outside the first space. When the first door and the second door close the opening of the storage room, the second groove is located on one side of the cover along the width direction of the box. The second groove is configured such that the wall thickness of the portion of the cover with the second groove is the same as the wall thickness of the portion of the cover forming the first space.

[0049] The refrigerator of this application features a second groove on one side of the lid along the width of the cabinet. This second groove ensures that the wall thickness of the portion of the lid with the groove is the same as the wall thickness of the portion forming the first space. This results in similar shrinkage rates during injection molding, reducing the impact on the lid's shape during molding and facilitating a better fit between the lid and the first and second doors, thus improving the insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly. Furthermore, since the second groove is located outside the first space (i.e., it is not connected to the first space), its placement does not affect the insulation performance of the insulation layer of the vertical partition assembly, effectively reducing cold leakage at the gap between the first and second doors.

[0050] As an optional implementation, the cover includes a first side plate, a first front plate, a second side plate, a second front plate, a third side plate, a third front plate, and a fourth side plate. The first side plate, the second front plate, and the third side plate are connected in sequence. The second side plate protrudes from the second front plate and is spaced apart from the third side plate. The first front plate is connected to the end of the second side plate opposite to the second front plate. The third front plate is connected between the third side plate and the fourth side plate.

[0051] A second groove is formed between the second front plate, the second side plate, and the first front plate, and a first groove is formed between the second side plate, the second front plate, and the third side plate;

[0052] The second front plate has a fourth surface on the side facing the base, and the fourth surface forms the first space with the base. The third side plate, the third front plate and the fourth side plate form a third space.

[0053] By setting a third side plate, a third front plate, and a fourth side plate, a third space is formed between the third side plate, the third front plate, and the fourth side plate. This allows the wall thickness of the portion of the cover with the third space to be the same as the wall thickness of the portion of the cover forming the first space. That is, the wall thicknesses of the second front plate, the third side plate, the third front plate, and the fourth side plate are all the same. The setting of the second groove ensures that the wall thicknesses of the first side plate, the first front plate, the second side plate, and the second front plate are all the same, thus making the wall thickness of the cover the same. This, in turn, ensures that the shrinkage rate of the cover during injection molding is the same, reducing the impact on the shape of the cover during molding. This is beneficial for the cover to fit better with the first door and the second door, and helps to ensure the thermal insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly.

[0054] As an optional implementation, the second groove has a dimension of d3 in the width direction of the box body, and the third space has a dimension of d2 in the width direction of the box body, satisfying: d3 < d2;

[0055] The heat insulation layer is also provided in the third space.

[0056] Without changing the dimensions of the cover and the metal plate (i.e., the first groove) in the width direction of the box, that is, without changing the sum of the dimensions of the second groove and the third space in the width direction of the box, by making the dimension d2 of the third space in the width direction of the box greater than the dimension d3 of the second groove in the width direction of the box, even if the metal plate is not centered on the cover in the width direction of the box, the dimension d2 can be made relatively large. This allows the insulation layer to fill the third space when it is filled into the first space using a foaming process, avoiding the formation of a cavity in the third space. At the same time, the volume occupied by the second groove is smaller, that is, the volume that cannot be filled with the insulation layer is smaller, increasing the overall volume of the insulation layer and improving the thermal insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly.

[0057] As an optional implementation, the cross-section of the third front plate and the fourth side plate in the plane perpendicular to the height direction of the box is constructed as an arc, and the connection between the third front plate and the fourth side plate is a rounded transition.

[0058] By constructing the cross-sections of the third front plate and the fourth side plate as arcs, and making the connection between the third front plate and the fourth side plate a rounded transition, it is equivalent to making the third front plate and the fourth side plate into an arc plate. When the vertical partition assembly rotates relative to the first door, it is beneficial for the cover to avoid the first door, thus preventing the cover from interfering with the first door and causing the vertical partition assembly to be unable to rotate normally.

[0059] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are:

[0060] The refrigerator provided in this application has a second space formed between the first, second, third, and fourth surfaces sequentially connected on the second side of the lid. The first and third surfaces are spaced apart in the width direction of the lid, and the second and fourth surfaces are spaced apart in the depth direction of the lid. This allows the wall thickness of the portion of the lid with the second space to be the same as the wall thickness of the portion forming the first space. This ensures that the shrinkage rate of the lid during injection molding is similar, reducing the impact on the shape of the lid during molding. This facilitates a better fit between the lid and the first and second doors, and helps maintain the insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly. By providing a blocking structure within the second space, the amount of gas within the second space is reduced, ensuring that the second space is not an empty cavity. This improves the insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly and reduces cold leakage at the gap between the first and second doors. Attached Figure Description

[0085] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0086] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0087] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 This application discloses a refrigerator 1, which includes a cabinet 10, a first door 11, and a second door 12. The cabinet 10 has a storage compartment 100 with an opening. The first door 11 is rotatably connected to the cabinet 10 to open and close a portion of the opening of the storage compartment 100. The second door 12 is rotatably connected to the cabinet 10 to open and close the remaining portion of the opening of the storage compartment 100. Thus, the first door 11 and the second door 12 can jointly open or close the opening of the storage compartment 100. That is, the refrigerator 1 of this application is a side-by-side refrigerator 1.

[0088] Specifically, storage room 100 is typically divided into a refrigerated compartment and a frozen compartment. It can also be further divided into chambers with special functions, such as a chamber within the refrigerated compartment for storing fruits and vegetables. The refrigerated compartment can maintain a temperature range of approximately 4°C to store food, beverages, or medicines in a refrigerated state. The frozen compartment can maintain a temperature range of approximately -18°C to store food, beverages, or medicines in a frozen state.

[0089] In some embodiments, the refrigerator 1 further includes a vertical partition assembly 13, which is disposed on the first door 11. The vertical partition assembly 13 can rotate relative to the first door 11 about the height direction X of the refrigerator body 10. When the first door 11 and the second door 12 close the opening of the storage compartment 100, the vertical partition assembly 13 rotates to be parallel to the first door 11 and the second door 12 and fits against the first door 11 and the second door 12, thereby sealing the gap between the first door 11 and the second door 12 and preventing cold air leakage. When the first door 11 and the second door 12 open the opening of the storage compartment 100, the vertical partition assembly 13 rotates to be perpendicular to the first door 11. If the user does not close the first door 11 and the second door 12 tightly, the first door 11 will be lifted by the vertical partition assembly 13, so that there is a certain distance between the first door 11 and the refrigerator body 10, making it easy for the user to recognize that the first door 11 is not closed tightly. In other embodiments, the vertical partition assembly 13 may also be disposed on the second door body 12.

[0090] Please refer to the following: Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, one of the vertical partition assembly 13 and the housing 10 is provided with a guide block 135, and the other is provided with a guide groove 101. The guide block 135 can slide relative to the guide groove 101. In one example, the vertical partition assembly 13 is provided with a guide block 135, and the housing 10 is provided with a guide groove 101. In another example, the vertical partition assembly 13 is provided with a guide groove 101, and the housing 10 is provided with a guide block 135. Through the cooperation of the guide block 135 and the guide groove 101, the movement of the vertical partition assembly 13 can be guided when the first door 11 rotates relative to the housing 10, thereby ensuring that when the first door 11 and the second door 12 close the storage compartment 100, the vertical partition assembly 13 can rotate to be parallel to and fit against the first door 11 and the second door 12.

[0091] Please refer to the following: Figure 3 and Figure 4In some embodiments, the vertical partition assembly 13 includes a base 130, a cover 131, and a heat insulation layer 132. The cover 131 is connected to the base 130, and a first space 131d is formed between the cover 131 and the base 130. The first space 131d is used to accommodate the heat insulation layer 132. By setting the cover and the base 130, the first space 131d can be formed between the cover and the base 130. By setting the heat insulation layer 132 in the first space 131d, the heat insulation layer 132 has a lower thermal conductivity than the base 130 and the cover, so that the vertical partition assembly 13 has better heat preservation performance, further reducing the cold leakage at the gap between the first door 11 and the second door 12.

[0092] Optionally, the material of the insulation layer 132 can be polyurethane, cyclopentane, or hydrofluorocarbon, etc., and the specific choice can be made according to the actual situation. In this embodiment, no specific limitation is made. The insulation layer 132 is usually filled into the first space 131d by a foaming process.

[0093] Optionally, the base 130 and the cover can be made of polyethylene or polypropylene, etc., and the specific material can be selected according to the actual situation. In this embodiment, no specific limitation is made.

[0094] In some embodiments, the vertical partition assembly 13 further includes a metal plate 133 disposed on the cover 131. A magnetic element (not shown) is provided on the side of the first door 11 near the second door 12, and a magnetic element is also provided on the side of the second door 12 near the first door 11. When the first door 11 and the second door 12 close the opening of the storage compartment 100, the metal plate 133 on the cover 131 can be magnetically connected to the magnetic elements on the first door 11 and the second door 12, thereby making the vertical partition assembly 13 fit tightly against the first door 11 and the second door 12, improving the sealing between the vertical partition assembly 13 and the first door 11 and the second door 12, and further reducing cold leakage at the gap between the first door 11 and the second door 12.

[0095] Optionally, the magnetic component can be a permanent magnet or an electromagnet, etc., and the specific choice can be made according to the actual situation. In this embodiment, no specific limitation is made.

[0096] In some embodiments, the cover 131 includes a first side 131a and a second side 131b. The first side 131a is the side of the cover 131 that is away from the base 130. A first groove 131c is provided on the first side 131a. The second side 131b is disposed opposite to the first side 131a. A metal plate 133 covers the opening of the first groove 131c.

[0097] By providing a first groove 131c on the first side 131a of the cover 131, the metal plate 133 can be accommodated in the first groove 131c, which facilitates the installation of the metal plate 133 and also prevents the metal plate 133 from protruding from the surface of the first side 131a. This allows the first side 131a of the cover and the surface of the metal plate 133 to simultaneously fit with the first door 11 and the second door 12, increasing the contact area between the vertical partition assembly 13 and the first door 11 and the second door 12. This helps to reduce cold leakage at the gap between the first door 11 and the second door 12.

[0098] Optionally, the connection method between the metal plate 133 and the wall of the first groove 131c can be a snap-fit ​​connection, an adhesive connection, etc., which can be selected according to the actual situation, and is not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0099] In some embodiments, the vertical partition assembly 13 further includes a heating element (not shown), which is disposed within the first groove 131c. Because the temperature difference between the vertical partition assembly 13 and the external environment is relatively large (i.e., the temperature difference between the refrigerator 1 and room temperature is significant), condensation is prone to occur on the front side of the vertical partition assembly 13, and water droplets may even fall, affecting the user experience. By providing a heating element within the first groove 131c, the temperature of the vertical partition assembly 13 can be increased, thereby reducing the temperature difference between the vertical partition assembly 13 and the external environment, which helps to reduce condensation on the front side of the vertical partition assembly 13.

[0100] Optionally, the heating element may be an electric heating wire or an electric heating rod, etc., and the specific choice can be made according to the actual situation. In this embodiment, no specific limitation is made.

[0101] In this application, "front" and "rear" refer to two opposite directions in the depth direction Z of the cabinet 10. "Front" means the direction in which the refrigerator 1 faces the user when in use, and "rear" means the direction in which the refrigerator 1 is away from the user when in use.

[0102] To better understand the structure of the vertical partition assembly 13 of this application, the specific structure of the vertical partition assembly 13 will be described below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0103] Example 1:

[0104] Please refer to the following: Figures 3 to 5In some embodiments, the second side 131b includes a first surface 1310a, a second surface 1311a, a third surface 1312a, and a fourth surface 1313a connected in sequence. When the first door 11 and the second door 12 close the opening of the storage room 100, the first surface 1310a and the third surface 1312a are spaced apart in the width direction Y of the box 10, and the second surface 1311a and the fourth surface 1313a are spaced apart in the depth direction Z of the box 10. A first space 131d is formed between the fourth surface 1313a and the base 130, and a second space 131e is formed between the first surface 1310a, the second surface 1311a, and the third surface 1312a, which communicates with the first space 131d.

[0105] In actual production, the cover 131 is usually a plastic part, and the cover 131 is usually formed by injection molding. In this embodiment, the first groove 131c is provided on the first side 131a of the cover 131, which will make the wall thickness of the cover 131 uneven. This will result in different shrinkage rates of the cover 131 during injection molding, thereby affecting the shape of the cover 131 during molding. This may affect the fit between the cover 131 and the first door 11 and the second door 12, which is not conducive to ensuring the heat preservation performance of the vertical partition assembly 13.

[0106] Based on this, this application forms a first surface 1310a, a second surface 1311a, a third surface 1312a, and a fourth surface 1313a connected in sequence on the second side 131b of the cover 131. The first surface 1310a and the third surface 1312a are spaced apart in the width direction Y of the housing 10, and the second surface 1311a and the fourth surface 1313a are spaced apart in the depth direction Z of the housing 10. This results in the first surface 1310a, the second surface 1312a, and the fourth surface 1313a being connected in sequence on the second side 131b of the cover 131. A second space 131e is formed between 1a and the third surface 1312a, so that the wall thickness of the part of the cover 131 with the second space 131e is the same as the wall thickness of the part of the cover 131 forming the first space 131d. This makes the shrinkage rate of the cover 131 during injection molding similar, reducing the impact on the shape of the cover 131 during molding. This is beneficial for the cover 131 to fit better with the first door 11 and the second door 12, and helps to ensure the thermal insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly 13.

[0107] It is understood that in this application, since the vertical partition assembly 13 is rotatable about the height direction X of the cabinet 10, the direction of the vertical partition assembly 13 relative to the cabinet 10 in the height direction X perpendicular to the cabinet 10 is uncertain. The limitation of "when the first door 11 and the second door 12 close the opening of the storage compartment 100" is for the purpose of understanding the directional design of the structure on the vertical partition assembly 13, and does not mean that the refrigerator 1 of this application must have such a structural design only when the first door 11 and the second door 12 close the opening of the storage compartment 100. For example, the first door 11 and the second door 12 close the storage compartment 100. When the refrigerator 100 is open, the first surface 1310a and the third surface 1312a are spaced apart in the width direction Y of the cabinet 10. This does not mean that the first surface 1310a and the third surface 1312a are spaced apart when the first door 11 and the second door 12 close the opening of the storage compartment 100. Rather, it means that the first surface 1310a and the second surface 1311a are designed to be spaced apart. It is only when the first door 11 and the second door 12 close the opening of the storage compartment 100 that the first surface 1310a and the third surface 1312a are spaced apart in the width direction Y of the cabinet 10.

[0108] In some embodiments, the vertical partition assembly 13 further includes a blocking structure 134 disposed within the second space 131e.

[0109] When the first door 11 and the second door 12 close the opening of the storage room 100, the size of the cover 131 in the width direction Y of the box 10 is limited (the vertical partition assembly 13 cannot occupy too much space, otherwise it will affect the structural design of the first door 11 and the second door 12). At the same time, the metal plate 133 needs to be magnetically connected to the magnetic components on the first door 11 and the second door 12. That is, the projection of the metal plate 133 in the depth direction Z of the box 10 needs to cover the magnetic components on the first door 11 and the second door 12. Therefore, the metal plate 133 needs to have a certain size in the width direction Y of the housing 10, which makes the size of the second space 131e in the depth direction Z of the housing 10 usually small. After the insulation layer 132 is filled into the first space 131d using a foaming process, the insulation layer 132 usually includes particles of a certain size, which makes it impossible for the insulation layer 132 to fill into the smaller second space 131e, thus causing the second space 131e to form a cavity. Since it is difficult to ensure that the gas in the second space 131e, which is connected to the first space 131d, is in a closed state, that is, the gas in the cavity may be in a flowing state, which may affect the thermal insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly 13. By setting a blocking structure 134 in the second space 131e, the gas in the second space 131e can be reduced, so that the second space 131e is not a cavity, thereby improving the thermal insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly 13, and thus reducing the cold leakage at the gap between the first door 11 and the second door 12.

[0110] Optionally, a second space 131e can be formed on both opposite sides of the second side 131b along the width direction Y of the box 10, or a second space 131e can be formed only on one side of the second side 131b along the width direction Y of the box 10. The specific choice can be made according to the actual situation, and no specific limitation is made in this embodiment. When a second space 131e is formed on both opposite sides of the second side 131b along the width direction Y of the box 10, and a blocking structure 134 is provided in the second space 131e, the wall thickness of the portion of the cover 131 on both sides of the box 10 where the second space 131e is provided is the same as the wall thickness of the portion of the cover 131 where the first space 131d is formed, thereby improving the thermal insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly 13.

[0111] A second space 131e is formed only on one side of the second side 131b along the width direction Y of the housing 10. In some embodiments, the cover 131 includes a first side plate 1310, a first front plate 1311, a second side plate 1312, a second front plate 1313, a third side plate 1314, a third front plate 1315, and a fourth side plate 1316 connected in sequence. The first side plate 1310 has a first surface 1310a, the first front plate 1311 has a second surface 1311a, the second side plate 1312 has a third surface 1312a, the second front plate 1313 has a fourth surface 1313a, a first groove 131c is formed between the second side plate 1312, the second front plate 1313, and the third side plate 1314, and a third space 131f communicating with the first space 131d is formed between the third side plate 1314, the third front plate 1315, and the fourth side plate 1316.

[0112] By setting the first side plate 1310, the first front plate 1311, and the second side plate 1312, a second space 131e is formed between the first side plate 1310, the first front plate 1311, and the second side plate 1312. This allows the wall thickness of the portion of the cover 131 with the second space 131e to be the same as the wall thickness of the portion of the cover 131 forming the first space 131d. That is, the wall thicknesses of the first side plate 1310, the first front plate 1311, the second side plate 1312, and the second front plate 1313 are all the same. By setting the third side plate 1314, the third front plate 1315, and the fourth side plate 1316, the wall thicknesses of the third side plate 1314, the third front plate 1315, and the fourth side plate 1316 are also the same. A third space 131f is formed between 316, which makes the wall thickness of the part of the cover 131 with the third space 131f the same as the wall thickness of the part of the cover 131 that forms the first space 131d. That is, the wall thicknesses of the second front plate 1313, the third side plate 1314, the third front plate 1315 and the fourth side plate 1316 are all the same, so that the wall thickness of the cover 131 is the same. This makes the shrinkage rate of the cover 131 during injection molding the same, reducing the impact on the shape of the cover 131 during molding. This is beneficial for the cover 131 to fit better with the first door 11 and the second door 12, and helps to ensure the thermal insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly 13.

[0113] In some embodiments, the second space 131e has a dimension d1 in the width direction Y of the housing 10, and the third space 131f has a dimension d2 in the width direction Y of the housing 10, satisfying that d1 < d2. A heat insulation layer 132 is also disposed within the third space 131f.

[0114] Without changing the dimensions of the cover 131 and the metal plate 133 (i.e., the first groove 131c) in the width direction Y of the box 10, that is, without changing the sum of the dimensions of the second space 131e and the third space 131f in the width direction Y of the box 10, by making the dimension d2 of the third space 131f in the width direction Y of the box 10 greater than the dimension d1 of the second space 131e in the width direction Y of the box 10, the metal plate 133 on the cover 131 is... The width of the housing 10 is not centered in the Y direction, which makes the dimension d2 relatively large. This allows the insulation layer 132 to be filled into the third space 131f when it is filled into the first space 131d using a foaming process, thus avoiding the formation of a cavity in the third space 131f. At the same time, the volume occupied by the first space 131d is smaller, meaning the volume that cannot be filled with the insulation layer 132 is smaller. This increases the overall volume of the insulation layer 132 and improves the thermal insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly 13.

[0115] Optionally, the first side plate 1310, the first front plate 1311, the second side plate 1312, the second front plate 1313, the third side plate 1314, the third front plate 1315, and the fourth side plate 1316 can be flat plates or curved plates, etc., and can be selected according to the actual situation. In this embodiment, no specific limitation is made.

[0116] In some embodiments, the cross-sections of the third front panel 1315 and the fourth side panel 1316 in the plane perpendicular to the height direction X of the housing 10 are constructed as arcs, and the connection between the third front panel 1315 and the fourth side panel 1316 is rounded. In this embodiment, the third front panel 1315 and the fourth side panel 1316 are closer to the first door 11 than the first side panel 1310 and the first front panel 1311.

[0117] By constructing the cross-sections of the third front plate 1315 and the fourth side plate 1316 as arc-shaped, and making the connection between the third front plate 1315 and the fourth side plate 1316 a rounded transition, it is equivalent to making the third front plate 1315 and the fourth side plate 1316 form an arc-shaped plate. When the vertical partition assembly 13 rotates relative to the first door 11, it is beneficial for the cover 131 to avoid the first door 11, thus preventing the cover 131 from interfering with the first door 11 and causing the vertical partition assembly 13 to be unable to rotate normally.

[0118] Optionally, the blocking structure 134 can be a separate component or integrally formed with the base 130. The specific choice can be made according to the actual situation, and no specific limitation is made in this embodiment.

[0119] In some embodiments, the blocking structure 134 is configured as a protruding rib on the base 130, and when the first door 11 and the second door 12 close the opening of the storage chamber 100, the protruding rib extends along the depth direction Z of the box 10 to block the second space 131e.

[0120] By constructing the blocking structure 134 as a protruding rib on the base 130, that is, the blocking structure 134 and the base 130 are integrally formed, the structural design of the vertical partition assembly 13 can be simplified and the assembly difficulty of the vertical partition assembly 13 can be reduced by eliminating the need for separate production and installation of the blocking structure 134.

[0121] In some embodiments, the base 130 includes a first plate portion 1300 and a first enclosure portion 1301 and a second enclosure portion 1302 connected to both sides of the first plate portion 1300. When the first door 11 and the second door 12 close the opening of the storage compartment 100, the first enclosure portion 1301 is disposed in the depth direction Z of the box 10 corresponding to the second space 131e, and the blocking structure 134 is disposed on the side of the first enclosure portion 1301 facing the second space 131e. The first side plate 1310 extends along the depth direction Z of the box 10 to connect to the first enclosure portion 1301.

[0122] By positioning the first enclosure plate 1301 in the depth direction Z of the housing 10 corresponding to the second space 131e, and with the blocking structure 134 positioned on the side of the first enclosure plate 1301 facing the second space 131e, the blocking structure 134 is essentially formed by extending the first enclosure plate 1301 in the depth direction Z of the housing 10. This simplifies the manufacturing process of the base 130. Furthermore, the blocking structure 134 and the first enclosure plate 1301 have the same wall thickness, ensuring a uniform wall thickness for the base 130. This results in a consistent shrinkage rate during injection molding, reducing the impact on the shape of the base 130 during molding and preventing misalignment between the base 130 and the cover 131.

[0123] In some embodiments, the base 130 further includes a protrusion 1303, which is disposed on the first enclosure portion 1301. The first side plate 1310 extends along the depth direction Z of the housing 10 to abut against the protrusion 1303, so as to realize the positioning and installation of the base 130 and the cover.

[0124] Optionally, the first enclosure plate 1301 and the second enclosure plate 1302 may be flat plates or curved plates, etc., and the specific selection can be made according to the actual situation. In this embodiment, no specific limitation is made.

[0125] Optionally, the number of protruding ribs can be one or more, and the specific number can be selected according to the actual situation. In this embodiment, no specific limitation is made.

[0126] Please refer to the following: Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the second space 131e is provided with a plurality of reinforcing ribs 1317, which are spaced apart along the height direction X of the housing 10. The number of blocking structures 134 is multiple (e.g., Figure 4 As shown, multiple blocking structures 134 are spaced apart along the height direction X of the housing 10, and are provided to avoid the reinforcing ribs 1317.

[0127] By providing multiple reinforcing ribs 1317 within the second space 131e, the reinforcing ribs 1317 can improve the structural strength of the cover 131 in the second space 131e without affecting the uniformity of the cover thickness, thereby increasing the service life of the vertical partition assembly 13. Since the reinforcing ribs 1317 already occupy part of the space in the second space 131e, by having multiple blocking structures 134 spaced apart and avoiding the reinforcing ribs 1317, interference between the blocking structures 134 and the cover 131 during assembly can be avoided. At the same time, the remaining space in the second space 131e can be blocked by the blocking structures 134, thereby improving the thermal insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly 13 and reducing cold leakage at the gap between the first door 11 and the second door 12.

[0128] Example 2:

[0129] Please refer to the following: Figures 8 to 10 In some embodiments, the cover 131 is provided with a second groove 131g, which is located outside the first space 131d. When the first door 11 and the second door 12 close the opening of the storage room 100, the second groove 131g is located on one side of the cover 131 along the width direction Y of the box 10, and the second groove 131g is configured such that the wall thickness of the portion of the cover 131 with the second groove 131g is the same as the wall thickness of the portion of the cover 131 forming the first space 131d.

[0130] In actual production, the cover 131 is usually a plastic part, and the cover 131 is usually formed by injection molding. In this embodiment, the first groove 131c is provided on the first side 131a of the cover 131, which will make the wall thickness of the cover 131 uneven. This will result in different shrinkage rates of the cover 131 during injection molding, thereby affecting the shape of the cover 131 during molding. This may affect the fit between the cover 131 and the first door 11 and the second door 12, which is not conducive to ensuring the heat preservation performance of the vertical partition assembly 13. By providing a second groove 131g on one side of the cover 131 along the width direction Y of the box body 10, the wall thickness of the portion of the cover 131 with the second groove 131g is the same as the wall thickness of the portion of the cover 131 forming the first space 131d. This ensures that the shrinkage rate of the cover 131 during injection molding is similar, reducing the impact on the shape of the cover 131 during molding. This facilitates a better fit between the cover 131 and the first door 11 and the second door 12, thus ensuring the thermal insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly 13. Furthermore, since the second groove 131g is located outside the first space 131d, meaning it is not connected to the first space 131d, the setting of the second groove 131g does not affect the thermal insulation performance of the insulation layer 132 of the vertical partition assembly 13. This allows the vertical partition assembly 13 to effectively reduce cold leakage at the gap between the first door 11 and the second door 12.

[0131] Optionally, the cover 131 may be provided with second grooves 131g on both opposite sides of the box 10 along the width direction Y, or the second groove 131g may be provided only on one side of the cover 131 along the width direction Y of the box 10. The specific choice can be made according to the actual situation, and no specific limitation is made in this embodiment. When the cover 131 is provided with second grooves 131g on both opposite sides of the box 10 along the width direction Y, the wall thickness of the portion of the cover 131 with the second grooves 131g on both sides of the box 10 is the same as the wall thickness of the portion of the cover 131 forming the first space 131d, and the heat insulation performance of the heat insulation layer 132 of the vertical partition assembly 13 is not affected.

[0132] When the second groove 131g is provided only on one side of the cover 131 along the width direction Y of the box 10. In some embodiments, the cover 131 includes a first side plate 1310, a first front plate 1311, a second side plate 1312, a second front plate 1313, a third side plate 1314, a third front plate 1315, and a fourth side plate 1316. The first side plate 1310, the second front plate 1313, and the third side plate 1314 are connected in sequence. The second side plate 1312 protrudes from the second front plate 1313 and is spaced apart from the third side plate 1314. The first front plate 1311 is connected to the end of the second side plate 1312 away from the second front plate 1313. The third front plate 1315 is connected between the third side plate 1314 and the fourth side plate 1316. A second groove 131g is formed between the second front plate 1313, the second side plate 1312, and the first front plate 1311, and a first groove 131c is formed between the second side plate 1312, the second front plate 1313, and the third side plate 1314. The side of the second front plate 1313 facing the base 130 has a fourth surface 1313a, and a first space 131d is formed between the fourth surface 1313a and the base 130. A third space 131f is formed between the third side plate 1314, the third front plate 1315, and the fourth side plate 1316.

[0133] By setting the third side plate 1314, the third front plate 1315, and the fourth side plate 1316, a third space 131f is formed between the third side plate 1314, the third front plate 1315, and the fourth side plate 1316. This allows the wall thickness of the portion of the cover 131 with the third space 131f to be the same as the wall thickness of the portion of the cover 131 that forms the first space 131d. That is, the wall thicknesses of the second front plate 1313, the third side plate 1314, the third front plate 1315, and the fourth side plate 1316 are all the same. The setting of the second groove 131g will make the wall thickness of the first side plate 1310, the first front plate 1311, the second side plate 1312 and the second front plate 1313 the same, so that the wall thickness of the cover 131 is the same, and the shrinkage rate of the cover 131 during injection molding is the same, which reduces the impact on the shape of the cover 131 during molding, and helps the cover 131 to fit better with the first door 11 and the second door 12, which helps to ensure the thermal insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly 13.

[0134] In some embodiments, the second groove 131g has a dimension d3 in the width direction Y of the housing 10, and the third space 131f has a dimension d2 in the width direction Y of the housing 10, satisfying that d3 < d2. A heat insulation layer 132 is also disposed within the third space 131f.

[0135] Without changing the dimensions of the cover 131 and the metal plate 133 (i.e., the first groove 131c) in the width direction Y of the box 10, that is, without changing the sum of the dimensions of the second groove 131g and the third space 131f in the width direction Y of the box 10, by making the dimension d2 of the third space 131f in the width direction Y of the box 10 greater than the dimension d3 of the second groove 131g in the width direction Y of the box 10, even if the metal plate 133 is not centered on the cover 131 in the width direction Y of the box 10, the dimension d2 can be made relatively large. This allows the insulation layer 132 to be filled into the third space 131f when it is filled into the first space 131d using a foaming process, avoiding the formation of a cavity in the third space 131f. At the same time, the volume occupied by the second groove 131g is smaller, that is, the volume that cannot be filled by the insulation layer 132 is smaller, increasing the overall volume of the insulation layer 132 and improving the thermal insulation performance of the vertical partition assembly 13.

[0136] Optionally, the first side plate 1310, the first front plate 1311, the second side plate 1312, the second front plate 1313, the third side plate 1314, the third front plate 1315, and the fourth side plate 1316 can be flat plates or curved plates, etc., and can be selected according to the actual situation. In this embodiment, no specific limitation is made.

[0137] In some embodiments, the cross-sections of the third front plate 1315 and the fourth side plate 1316 in the plane perpendicular to the height direction X of the housing 10 are constructed as arcs, and the connection between the third front plate 1315 and the fourth side plate 1316 is rounded.

[0138] By constructing the cross-sections of the third front plate 1315 and the fourth side plate 1316 as arc-shaped, and making the connection between the third front plate 1315 and the fourth side plate 1316 a rounded transition, it is equivalent to making the third front plate 1315 and the fourth side plate 1316 form an arc-shaped plate. When the vertical partition assembly 13 rotates relative to the first door 11, it is beneficial for the cover 131 to avoid the first door 11, thus preventing the cover 131 from interfering with the first door 11 and causing the vertical partition assembly 13 to be unable to rotate normally.
