Detailed Implementation
[0025] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that these descriptions are for the purpose of aiding understanding of this utility model, but do not constitute a limitation thereof. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0026] See Figures 1-7 As shown, this utility model discloses a handle with an L-shaped metal sheet.
[0027] A handle with an L-shaped metal sheet includes a handle body 1 and a metal sheet 2. The handle body 1 has fixing blocks 10 at both ends, and a handle groove 11 is provided between the fixing blocks 10. Each fixing block 10 has a recess 101, and the metal sheet 2 is fixed to the recess 101 with adhesive. The handle groove 11 allows the user to apply force with their hand, thereby controlling the opening or closing of the refrigerator door relative to the refrigerator body.
[0028] The metal sheet 2 is L-shaped, and the shape of the recess 101 matches that of the metal sheet 2. The recess 101 is provided on the front and side surfaces of the fixing block 10.
[0029] The fixing block 10 is provided with a hinge hole 102, which is installed with the refrigerator door panel through a spiral structure.
[0030] The first side wall end of the handle groove 11 extends outward and bends to form the handle flange 12.
[0031] The fixing block 10 has a first protruding edge 103 and a second protruding edge 104 at its edge end. A groove 105 is provided near the first protruding edge 103, and steps are provided at intervals in the groove 105. The second protruding edge 104 is integrally connected to the handle flange 12. The groove 105 can not only be used for localized material reduction design in specific areas of the injection molded part, effectively suppressing shrinkage defects caused by uneven material shrinkage on its surface, but the steps formed can also be used to improve structural strength.
[0032] The inner sidewall of the first limiting groove 14 extends outward to form a first limiting groove flange 16; the first limiting groove flange 16 is provided with a plurality of reinforcing ribs 17. The reinforcing ribs 17 are used to improve the structural strength and prevent the first limiting groove flange 16 from deforming.
[0033] The inner sidewall of the handle flange 12 has a first limiting groove 14 that matches the refrigerator door panel. The first limiting groove 14 extends to the longitudinal sidewall end of the handle body 1. The first limiting groove 14 is used to embed a corresponding assembly interface with the door panel first limiting groove flange 16 structure. By using this embedded assembly method, the flange structure can simultaneously achieve the function of avoiding gaps and precise positioning during the assembly process.
[0034] The longitudinal side wall end of the handle body 1 forms a slot 15 with the first limiting groove flange 16 and the first limiting groove 14.
[0035] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The connection between the handle body and the L-shaped metal piece relies on a recessed fit and adhesive curing, which is the foundation for ensuring the structural strength and appearance integrity of the handle. First, the recesses on the fixing blocks at both ends of the handle body perfectly match the shape of the L-shaped metal piece. During assembly, the metal piece can be precisely embedded into the recess. The contour of the recess restricts the displacement of the metal piece in the horizontal and vertical directions, preventing misalignment or displacement and ensuring that the metal piece is flush with the surface of the fixing block, providing a stable reference for subsequent adhesive bonding. Subsequently, adhesive is applied to the mating surfaces of the recess and the metal piece. After curing, the adhesive forms a high-strength adhesive layer: on the one hand, it tightly connects the metal piece and the handle body into one unit, preventing the metal piece from falling off during use; on the other hand, the adhesive fills the tiny gaps between the recess and the metal piece, further enhancing the sealing of the bond, while dispersing the stress at the contact points between the metal piece and the body, avoiding structural damage caused by localized stress concentration. In addition, after the L-shaped metal sheet is embedded in the recess, its metal rigidity complements that of the handle body, directly increasing the wall thickness strength of the fixing block and laying a structural foundation for bearing the door opening force in the future.
[0036] The embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but this utility model is not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model, and these variations still fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
