Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] In existing technology, refrigerator doors usually need to be opened and closed frequently. The existing structure increases the risk of collision between the door and the cabinet body when the door is closed too wide, which can easily affect the airtightness and lifespan of the refrigerator. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a refrigerator that can achieve a buffered closing of the refrigerator door, thereby extending the refrigerator's service life.

[0004] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the refrigerator includes: a cabinet body, a cabinet door, and a buffer closing device. The cabinet door can open and close the cabinet body. The buffer closing device is disposed between the cabinet body and the cabinet door, and includes: a guide member and an elastic component. The guide member is disposed on the cabinet body. The elastic component cooperates with the cabinet door, and the elastic component includes a movable member that can move along the height direction of the cabinet body. The movable member and the guide member can be separably cooperated.

[0005] According to the refrigerator of this utility model embodiment, the moving part and the guide part form a separable cooperation. During the closing process of the cabinet door, the guide part can generate a stable reaction force on the moving part to realize the buffer closing of the cabinet door, provide the opening and closing fulcrum for the cabinet door, and make the cabinet door and the cabinet body slowly close together, effectively avoiding collision between the cabinet door and the cabinet body, extending the service life of the refrigerator, protecting the items inside the cabinet from vibration, effectively improving the sealing and reliability between the cabinet door and the cabinet body, and enhancing the user experience. At the same time, setting the buffer closing device between the cabinet body and the cabinet door can make full use of the space between the cabinet body and the cabinet door, and improve the compactness and integration of the buffer closing device.

[0006] In some embodiments, one end of the guide member is connected to the cabinet body, and the other end of the guide member extends toward the cabinet door. The guide member has a guide surface on one side of the cabinet body adjacent to the cabinet door along the height direction of the cabinet body, and the moving member guides and cooperates with the guide surface.

[0007] Therefore, during the cabinet door closing process, a buffer closing path is provided for the cabinet door, and the guide surface can provide guidance and buffering for the moving parts, ensuring that the cabinet door and cabinet body slowly close, improving the reliability and stability of the cabinet door closing process.

[0008] In some embodiments, the guide surface extends horizontally downwards from one end to the other end.

[0009] Therefore, during the closing process of the cabinet door, the guide surface can generate a force opposite to the movement trajectory of the moving part, thereby realizing the buffering effect of the guide on the cabinet door.

[0010] In some embodiments, the guide member is provided with a guide groove, the guide groove including the guide surface.

[0011] This facilitates the limiting and guiding of moving parts, ensuring a stable guiding fit between the moving parts and the guide surface. This enables the guide parts to effectively buffer the cabinet door, further improving the reliability and stability of the slow fitting of the cabinet door and the cabinet body.

[0012] In some embodiments, the cabinet door has a mounting hole at the bottom, and the elastic component is disposed in the mounting hole; the elastic component includes: an elastic member, which is sleeved on the movable member, one end of the elastic member is connected to the cabinet door, and the other end of the elastic member is connected to the movable member.

[0013] This improves the integration of the elastic components with the cabinet door, reduces the space occupied by the elastic components, simplifies the assembly of the elastic components and the cabinet door, and facilitates the full absorption of the cabinet door's kinetic energy after the elastic components are compressed, thereby forming a stable reaction buffer force, realizing the buffer deceleration of the cabinet door, and improving the reliability and stability of the cabinet door closing slowly.

[0014] In some embodiments, the elastic component further includes: a housing and a limiting member, the housing being disposed within the mounting hole, the housing forming a limiting hole, the limiting hole passing through the housing radially along the movable member; one end of the movable member being connected to the limiting member, the limiting member being movably engaged with the limiting hole along the height direction of the cabinet.

[0015] Therefore, by setting up a housing and limiting components, guiding and preload space can be provided for the elastic and moving components, ensuring that the moving and elastic components move along the height direction of the cabinet without eccentricity, thereby improving the reliability and stability of the movement of the moving components.

[0016] In some embodiments, the movable member includes a protrusion that protrudes from the cabinet door along the height direction of the cabinet body in a direction away from the cabinet door, the protrusion being guided and engaged with the guide member, and the surface of the protrusion in contact with the guide member being an arc surface or a spherical surface.

[0017] Therefore, it is convenient for the protrusion to flexibly contact the guide surface and form a guiding fit. At the same time, the surface of the protrusion that contacts the guide is an arc surface or a spherical surface, which can reduce the contact area between the protrusion and the guide surface, avoid excessive frictional resistance when the protrusion contacts the guide surface, and reduce wear.

[0018] In some embodiments, the movable member has a rolling element at one end adjacent to the guide member along the height direction of the cabinet, and the rolling element cooperates with the guide member.

[0019] This improves the smoothness of contact between the moving parts and the guide parts, reduces the resistance to the guiding fit between the moving parts and the guide parts, reduces the wear of the moving parts, improves the durability of the moving parts, and extends the service life of the buffer closing device.

[0020] In some embodiments, the refrigerator further includes: a rotating support device disposed between the cabinet body and the cabinet door, the rotating support device being configured so that the cabinet door opens or closes the cabinet body via the rotating support device, the rotating support device including: a support portion and a rotating portion, the support portion being connected to the cabinet body and having a mating groove formed therein; the rotating portion being connected to the cabinet door and rotatably connected to the support portion, the rotating portion being configured to at least partially engage with the mating groove detachably.

[0021] Therefore, by setting up a rotating support device, the moving parts can be assisted to enter the guide surface and form an effective buffer fit with the guide surface, while ensuring that the cabinet door and the cabinet body form a rotatable connection through the rotating support device.

[0022] In some embodiments, the support portion and the guide member are integrally formed.

[0023] This can improve the integration of the buffer closure device, reduce the space occupied by the support and guide components, and improve the production efficiency and structural strength of the support and guide components.

[0024] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. The embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary. Figures 1-10 The refrigerator 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes: a cabinet 10, a cabinet door 11, and a buffer closing device 20.

[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the cabinet door 11 can open and close the cabinet body 10; the buffer closing device 20 is located between the cabinet body 10 and the cabinet door 11. The buffer closing device 20 includes a guide member 21 and an elastic component 23. The guide member 21 is located on the cabinet body 10. The elastic component 23 cooperates with the cabinet door 11. The elastic component 23 includes a moving member 25. The moving member 25 can move along the height direction of the cabinet body 10. The moving member 25 and the guide member 21 can be separably cooperated.

[0029] The cabinet body 10 and the cabinet door 11 are opposite each other along the thickness direction of the cabinet body 10. Rotating the cabinet door 11 can open and close the cabinet body 10. The elastic element 24 is set at the bottom of the cabinet door 11 and is fixedly connected to the cabinet door 11. One end of the guide element 21 is connected to the cabinet body 10, and the other end of the guide element 21 extends away from the cabinet body 10 along the thickness direction of the cabinet body 10. The guide element 21 and the elastic element 24 are opposite each other along the height direction of the cabinet body 10. The moving element 25 can move relative to the cabinet body 10 along the height direction of the cabinet body 10. The moving element 25 and the guide element 21 can be separably engaged along the height direction of the cabinet body 10. During the movement of the cabinet door 11 toward the cabinet body 10, the guide element 21 exerts a force on the moving element 25 in the direction of the height direction of the cabinet body 10 toward the cabinet door 11 and in the direction of the thickness direction of the cabinet body 10 away from the cabinet body 10. That is, the guide element 21 exerts a force on the moving element 25 opposite to the movement trajectory of the moving element 25 to buffer the elastic component 23. Among them, the movable part 25 can be a columnar metal pin.

[0030] According to the refrigerator 100 of this utility model embodiment, the movable member 25 and the guide member 21 form a separable cooperation. During the closing process of the cabinet door 11, the guide member 21 can generate a stable reaction force on the movable member 25 to achieve the buffer closing of the cabinet door 11, provide the opening and closing fulcrum for the cabinet door 11, and make the cabinet door 11 and the cabinet body 10 slowly close, effectively avoiding the collision between the cabinet door 11 and the cabinet body 10, extending the service life of the refrigerator 100, protecting the items inside the cabinet body 10 from vibration, effectively improving the sealing and reliability between the cabinet door 11 and the cabinet body 10, and enhancing the user experience. At the same time, by setting the buffer closing device 20 between the cabinet body 10 and the cabinet door 11, the space between the cabinet body 10 and the cabinet door 11 can be fully utilized, improving the compactness and integration of the buffer closing device 20.

[0031] Optionally, the moving part 25 is made of high-strength engineering plastic to achieve a lightweight design of the buffer closing device 20 and reduce production costs. The guide part 21 can be made of polyoxymethylene, polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) or metal die casting to improve the wear resistance and guiding accuracy of the guide part 21.

[0032] Optionally, the guide 21 is detachably connected to the cabinet 10, which can improve the assembly and disassembly efficiency of the guide 21 and facilitate the maintenance and replacement of the guide 21.

[0033] According to some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, one end of the guide member 21 is connected to the cabinet body 10, and the other end of the guide member 21 extends toward the cabinet door 11. The guide member 21 has a guide surface 22 on the side adjacent to the cabinet door 11 along the height direction of the cabinet body 10, and the moving member 25 is guided and cooperates with the guide surface 22.

[0034] The guide member 21 is provided at least a portion of the cabinet body 10 near the bottom of the cabinet door 11. One end of the guide member 21 is detachably connected to the cabinet body 10, and the other end of the guide member 21 extends along the thickness direction of the cabinet body 10 toward the direction away from the cabinet body 10, i.e. toward the cabinet door 11. The guide member 21 and the cabinet door 11 are spaced apart along the height direction of the cabinet body 10. At least a portion of the guide member 21 near the cabinet door 11 along the height direction of the cabinet body 10 forms a guide surface 22. The extension direction of the guide surface 22 is the same as the movement trajectory of the moving member 25. The end of the moving member 25 near the guide surface 22 along the thickness direction of the cabinet body 10 forms a guiding engagement with the guide surface 22.

[0035] Therefore, by forming a guide surface 22 on the side of the guide member 21 adjacent to the cabinet door 11 along the height direction of the cabinet body 10, a buffer closing path is provided for the cabinet door 11 during the closing process, which facilitates the contact of the moving member 25 with the guide surface 22 and the formation of a guiding engagement. The guide surface 22 can provide guidance and buffering for the moving member 25, ensuring that the cabinet door 11 and the cabinet body 10 slowly close, thereby improving the reliability and stability of the cabinet door 11 during the closing process.

[0036] According to some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, the guide surface 22 extends horizontally downwards from one end to the other end. That is, the guide surface 22 extends obliquely away from the cabinet 10 along the thickness direction of the cabinet 10 and away from the cabinet door 11 along the height direction of the cabinet 10. As the cabinet door 11 moves toward the cabinet 10, the guide surface 22 gradually generates a reaction force on the moving part 25 in the direction of the height direction of the cabinet 10 toward the cabinet door 11 and in the direction of the thickness direction of the cabinet 10 away from the cabinet 10.

[0037] Therefore, by designing the guide surface 22 to extend downwards, during the closing process of the cabinet door 11, the guide surface 22 can exert a force on the moving part 25 that is opposite to the movement trajectory of the moving part 25, thereby realizing the buffering effect of the guide part 21 on the cabinet door 11, achieving stable and effective buffered closing of the cabinet door 11. At the same time, it increases the distance between the moving part 25 and the end of the guide surface 22 away from the cabinet body 10, avoiding collision between the moving part 25 and the end of the guide surface 22 away from the cabinet body 10, extending the service life of the buffer closing device 20, and improving the reliability of the buffer closing device 20.

[0038] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the guide member 21 is provided with a guide groove, and the guide groove includes a guide surface 22.

[0039] At least a portion of the guide member 21 is recessed along the height direction of the cabinet body 10, near the cabinet door 11, towards the side away from the cabinet door 11, forming a guide groove. The extension direction of the guide groove is the same as the movement trajectory of the moving member 25, and the guide surface 22 is located within the guide groove. Thus, by providing a guide groove on the guide member 21, the moving member 25 is conveniently limited and guided, ensuring a stable guiding fit between the moving member 25 and the guide surface 22. This achieves effective buffering of the cabinet door 11 by the guide member 21, further improving the reliability and stability of the slow contact between the cabinet door 11 and the cabinet body 10.

[0040] According to some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 5 As shown, the bottom of the cabinet door 11 is provided with a mounting hole 12, and the elastic component 23 is disposed in the mounting hole 12; the elastic component 23 includes: an elastic element 24, which is sleeved on the movable element 25, one end of the elastic element 24 is connected to the cabinet door 11, and the other end of the elastic element 24 is connected to the movable element 25.

[0041] Mounting hole 12 is located at the bottom of cabinet door 11 along the height direction of cabinet body 10. Mounting hole 12 is suitable for mounting elastic component 23. Elastic component 23 is located in mounting hole 12 along the height direction of cabinet body 10. Elastic component 23 is fixedly connected to cabinet door 11. Moving component 25 can move in mounting hole 12 along the height direction of cabinet body 10. Elastic component 24 is located between moving component 25 and cabinet door 11. Elastic component 24 always pre-presses moving component 25 along the height direction of cabinet body 10 towards guide component 21. During the movement of cabinet door 11 towards cabinet body 10, moving component 25 forms a guiding fit with guide surface 22. Guide surface 22 exerts a force on moving component 25 along the height direction of cabinet body 10 towards cabinet door 11, causing moving component 25 to move away from guide component 21 and compress elastic component 24. Elastic component 24 gradually absorbs the kinetic energy of cabinet door 11.

[0042] Therefore, by placing the elastic component 23 inside the mounting hole 12 at the bottom of the cabinet door 11, the integration of the elastic component 23 and the cabinet door 11 can be improved, while reducing the space occupied by the elastic component 23 and simplifying the assembly of the elastic component 23 and the cabinet door 11. By sleeved the elastic element 24 on the moving element 25, the elastic element 24 can pre-press the moving element 25 downward, so that the moving element 25 and the guide surface 22 are tightly fitted. This allows the elastic element 24 to fully absorb the kinetic energy of the cabinet door 11 after being compressed, thereby forming a stable reaction buffer force and realizing the deceleration and soft landing of the bottom of the cabinet door 11. During the closing process of the cabinet door 11, the cabinet door 11 is buffered and decelerated, avoiding violent collision between the cabinet door 11 and the cabinet body 10, avoiding the rebound of the cabinet door 11, and improving the reliability and stability of the slow closing of the cabinet door 11.

[0043] Optionally, the elastic element 24 can be a compression spring made of steel wire, a constant force spring, a rubber elastic element, or a hydraulic damper, which can be selected according to different buffering characteristics requirements.

[0044] According to some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the elastic component 23 also includes: a housing 26 and a limiting member 27. The housing 26 is disposed in the mounting hole 12 and forms a limiting hole 28. The limiting hole 28 passes through the housing 26 radially along the moving member 25. One end of the moving member 25 is connected to the limiting member 27, and the limiting member 27 is movably engaged with the limiting hole 28 along the height direction of the cabinet 10.

[0045] The housing 26 is located inside the mounting hole 12, and the housing 26 is fixedly connected to the cabinet door 11. The movable member 25 is located inside the housing 26, and the elastic member 24 is located between the movable member 25 and the housing 26. A limiting hole 28 is formed at the end of the housing 26 away from the guide member 21 along the height direction of the cabinet 10. The limiting hole 28 penetrates the housing 26 radially along the movable member 25. The limiting member 27 is connected to the end of the movable member 25 away from the guide member 21 along the height direction of the cabinet 10, and the limiting member 27 can move in the limiting hole 28 along the height direction of the cabinet 10. As the cabinet door 11 moves toward the cabinet 10, the movable member 25 gradually moves away from the guide member 21 along the height direction of the cabinet 10. At this time, the limiting member 27 moves in the limiting hole 28 in the same direction as the movable member 25 away from the guide member 21.

[0046] Therefore, by setting the housing 26, a guiding and preload space can be provided for the elastic element 24 and the moving element 25. The limiting element 27 and the limiting hole 28 form a movable fit along the height direction of the cabinet 10, ensuring that the moving element 25, the elastic element 24 and the housing 26 are aligned along the height direction of the cabinet 10. This ensures that the moving element 25 and the elastic element 24 move along the height direction of the cabinet 10 without eccentricity, improving the reliability and stability of the movement of the moving element 25. At the same time, it can limit the distance that the moving element 25 moves along the height direction of the cabinet 10, preventing the elastic element 24 from being over-compressed.

[0047] Optionally, the housing 26 and the cabinet door 11 can be connected by structural adhesive, snaps, or threads, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the elastic component 23 and the cabinet door 11, and improving the connection strength and reliability of the elastic component 23 and the cabinet door 11.

[0048] According to some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 and Figure 7As shown, the movable part 25 includes: a protrusion 251, which protrudes from the cabinet door 11 along the height direction of the cabinet body 10 in a direction away from the cabinet door 11. The protrusion 251 is guided and cooperates with the guide 21. The surface of the protrusion 251 in contact with the guide 21 is an arc surface or a spherical surface.

[0049] The movable part 25 has a protrusion 251 at one end of the guide part 21 along the height direction of the cabinet 10. The protrusion 251 protrudes from the cabinet door 11 along the height direction of the cabinet 10 toward the guide part 21. The protrusion 251 and the guide surface 22 on the guide part 21 form a guiding fit. The protrusion 251 is an arc surface or a spherical structure.

[0050] Thus, the protrusion 251 of the movable member 25 protrudes from the cabinet door 11. While the movable member 25 is embedded inside the cabinet door 11, it is convenient for the protrusion 251 to flexibly contact the guide surface 22 and form a guiding fit. At the same time, the surface of the protrusion 251 that contacts the guide member 21 is an arc surface or a spherical surface, which can reduce the contact area between the protrusion 251 and the guide surface 22, avoid excessive frictional resistance when the protrusion 251 contacts the guide surface 22, and reduce wear.

[0051] Optionally, when the cabinet door 11 and the cabinet body 10 are in contact, the protrusion 251 and the guide surface 22 abut against each other along the thickness direction of the cabinet body 10 near the side wall of the cabinet body 10, thereby further preventing the cabinet door 11 from rebounding.

[0052] Optionally, the surface of the protrusion 251 that contacts the guide member 21 can be conical, thereby improving the wear resistance of the protrusion 251 and extending the service life of the buffer closure device 20.

[0053] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the movable part 25 is provided with a rolling element at one end of the guide part 21 along the height direction of the cabinet 10, and the rolling element cooperates with the guide part 21.

[0054] For example, the rolling element can be a ball bearing structure, and the rolling element forms a rolling fit with the guide member 21. Thus, by placing the rolling element at one end of the moving member 25 adjacent to the guide member 21 along the height direction of the cabinet 10, the smoothness of the contact between the moving member 25 and the guide member 21 can be improved, the resistance to the guiding fit between the moving member 25 and the guide member 21 can be reduced, the wear of the moving member 25 can be reduced, the durability of the moving member 25 can be improved, and the service life of the buffer closing device 20 can be extended.

[0055] According to some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the refrigerator 100 also includes a rotating support device 30, which is disposed between the cabinet body 10 and the cabinet door 11. The rotating support device 30 is configured to allow the cabinet door 11 to open or close the cabinet body 10 via the rotating support device 30. The rotating support device 30 includes a support part 31 and a rotating part 33. The support part 31 is connected to the cabinet body 10 and has a mating groove 311. The rotating part 33 is connected to the cabinet door 11 and is rotatably connected to the support part 31. The rotating part 33 is configured to at least partially engage with the mating groove 311 in a separable manner.

[0056] One end of the support part 31 is connected to the cabinet body 10, and the other end of the support part 31 extends away from the cabinet body 10 along the thickness direction of the cabinet body 10. A support member 32 is formed on the support part 31. One end of the support member 32 is connected to the support part 31, and the other end of the support member 32 extends towards the cabinet door 11 along the height direction of the cabinet body 10. The cabinet door 11 and the support member 32 are rotatably connected. The rotating part 33 is detachably connected to the bottom of the cabinet door 11. When the cabinet door 11 is closed, at least a portion of the rotating part 33 engages with the mating groove 311 of the support part 31. When the cabinet door 11 is opened, at least a portion of the rotating part 33 separates from the mating groove 311 of the support part 31.

[0057] Therefore, by setting the rotating support device 30, the moving part 25 can be assisted to enter the guide surface 22 and form an effective buffer fit with the guide surface 22, while ensuring that the cabinet door 11 and the cabinet body 10 form a rotatable connection through the rotating support device 30.

[0058] According to some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the support part 31 and the guide part 21 are integrally formed. This improves the integration of the buffer closing device 20, reduces the space occupied by the support part 31 and the guide part 21, and improves the production efficiency and structural strength of the support part 31 and the guide part 21.

[0059] In this application, such as Figures 1-10 As shown, by integrating the elastic component 23 into the bottom of the cabinet door 11, a protrusion 251 is provided on one end of the moving part 25 near the guide part 21 along the height direction of the cabinet body 10. The protrusion 251 of the moving part 25 and the guide part 21 form a guiding engagement. During the movement of the cabinet door 11 toward the cabinet body 10, the guide part 21 generates a force on the moving part 25 opposite to the movement trajectory of the moving part 25, and compresses the elastic component 24 to absorb the kinetic energy of the cabinet door 11, thereby achieving buffer deceleration and closing of the cabinet door 11, effectively preventing the cabinet door 11 from rebounding. At the same time, since the structure of the buffer closing device 20 is relatively simple, the space occupied by the buffer closing device 20 can be reduced, without affecting the foaming and appearance design of the cabinet door 11, improving assembly efficiency, saving component costs, and facilitating large-scale application.
