[0023] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, different features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.
[0024] The inventor's investigation revealed that built-in external cold beverage dispensing functions are common in export-oriented refrigeration equipment, with the current mainstream design integrating this mechanism into the refrigerator door. This function relies on the coordinated operation of components such as the external water dispenser housing, water pipe connector, and water dispensing switch. However, in related technologies, water dispensers generally have a simple structure and employ a similar design—the water dispenser housing and connector are joined together, foamed, and then the switch is assembled. This structure is prone to problems during manual assembly, leading to poor component consistency and consequently causing issues such as discontinuous water dispensing, low water volume, and leaks, resulting in a poor consumer experience.
[0025] In view of this, please refer to Figure 1 This utility model provides a refrigeration device, including a door 100, a box, a water storage tank 200, and an adjustment device 300.
[0026] Please refer to Figure 2 The door body 100 and the box connected to the door body 100; the door body 100 is provided with a water outlet channel 101.
[0027] Specifically, the door 100 is connected to the cabinet in an openable and closable manner, and a cooling space is formed inside the cabinet.
[0028] Specifically, the water outlet channel 101 is installed along the thickness direction of the door body 100, with its outer opening forming the water outlet of the water dispenser, and its inner side sealingly connected to the water outlet pipe 220 of the water storage tank 200. The water outlet channel 101 can be integrally injection molded inside the door body 100, forming an independent water passage physically isolated from the foam insulation layer of the door body 100, which avoids the risk of condensate seepage and also maintains the stability of the water temperature.
[0029] Please refer to Figure 3 A water storage tank 200; the water storage tank 200 has a water storage cavity 210 and a water outlet pipe 220 communicating with the water storage cavity 210. The water storage tank 200 is located on the side of the door 100 close to the box body. The water outlet pipe 220 extends through the water outlet channel 101. A water blocking device is provided at the end of the water outlet pipe 220 away from the water storage cavity 210.
[0030] Optionally, the water-blocking device includes a sealing seat disposed at the end of the outlet pipe 220, and a water-blocking component that cooperates with the sealing seat. The water-blocking component is provided with a reset elastic element. When there is no external force pressing, the water-blocking device is in a water-blocking state, and the reset elastic element drives the water-blocking component to press against the sealing seat to prevent water from flowing out of the water storage chamber 210. When there is external force pressing, the water-blocking device is in a flowing state, and the reset elastic element drives the linkage component to lift the water-blocking component, so that a gap is formed between it and the sealing seat, allowing water in the water storage chamber 210 to flow out through the gap.
[0031] In this embodiment, by setting the water outlet pipe 220 as part of the water storage tank 200, and placing the water storage tank 200 and its water outlet pipe 220 inside the door 100, the complex process of pre-assembling the water storage tank 200 and the water outlet pipe 220 joints required by traditional water dispenser structures is avoided. This eliminates errors caused by the assembly of the two, reducing the probability of problems such as no water dispensing or leakage in ordinary water dispensing mechanisms. In addition, the space of the door 100 can be made more fully utilized, solving the problem of the door 100 bulging caused by the foam insulation requirements of other water dispensers, which affects the aesthetics. While ensuring insulation performance, it occupies less space in the door 100, improving the volume utilization rate of the refrigeration equipment.
[0032] Optionally, a water hook groove can be designed at the bottom of the water tank 200 to further reduce water leakage during the user's water collection process, prevent water from getting on the floor and damaging the floor, and avoid affecting the user experience.
[0033] Adjustment device 300; The adjustment device 300 includes a water intake switch 310 and a fixing member disposed on the door body 100. The water intake switch 310 is connected to the fixing member. The water intake switch 310 can rotate along the fixing member and abut or separate from the water blocking device, thereby controlling the water blocking device to close or open.
[0034] Specifically, the fixing component is an assembly fixed to the outer surface of the door body 100, including a shaft or rotating shaft bracket. The water dispensing switch 310 is sleeved on the fixing component and can rotate around the axis of the fixing component between a first angular position and a second angular position. When the water dispensing switch 310 is in the first angular position, it separates from the water blocking element of the water blocking device. Under the action of the reset elastic element, the water blocking element remains in a closed state abutting against the sealing seat, and the water flow is blocked. When the user rotates the water dispensing switch 310 to the second angular position, the water dispensing switch 310 causes the reset elastic element to deform, pushing the water blocking element away from the sealing seat, opening the water outlet pipe 220, and allowing water to flow out of the water storage chamber 210. After releasing the water dispensing switch 310, under the action of the reset elastic element, the water blocking element closes the water outlet pipe 220 again, while simultaneously pushing the water dispensing switch 310 back to the first angular position. In this way, the water flow can be directly controlled by rotating the water dispensing switch 310.
[0035] In this embodiment, by setting the water outlet pipe 220 as an integrated structural component of the water storage tank 200, and embedding the water storage tank 200 within the inner space of the door 100 near the cabinet body, the assembly process required between the water storage tank 200 and the water outlet pipe 220 in traditional water dispenser structures can be eliminated. This integrated design also avoids the risk of seal failure caused by misalignment of the joints between the water storage tank 200 and the water outlet pipe 220, reducing the probability of the water storage tank 200 failing to dispense water or leaking.
[0036] In one possible implementation, please refer to Figure 4 The water tap 310 includes a connecting shaft 311, a first connecting part 312, and a second connecting part 313 connected in sequence. The connecting shaft 311 is movably connected to the fixing member. An included angle is defined between the first connecting part 312 and the second connecting part 313. The first connecting part 312 has a pressing block 3121, and a gap is left between the pressing block 3121 and the water blocking device.
[0037] Optionally, the fixing member can be a fixed support member that penetrates the wall of the door body 100. The fixed support member may include a support bushing, and the connecting shaft 311 is rotatably engaged with the support bushing. The first connecting part 312 and the second connecting part 313 are integrally formed, so that the first connecting part 312 forms a lever structure relative to the connecting shaft 311. The pressing block 3121 is provided at one end of the first connecting part 312 near the second connecting part 313 and extends towards the water blocking device. When the water flow is blocked, the end face of the pressing block 3121 maintains a gap with the water blocking element of the water blocking device. For example, the end face of the pressing block 3121 can maintain a safe gap of 0.5mm to 3mm with the water blocking element of the water blocking device. In this way, it can be ensured that there is no contact friction between the pressing block 3121 and the water blocking element when the water flow is blocked, avoiding unnecessary wear.
[0038] The second connecting part 313 is used to drive the first connecting part 312 to rotate along the connecting shaft 311, so as to adjust the distance between the pressing block 3121 and the water blocking device.
[0039] Specifically, when the user applies force to the second connecting part 313 to rotate it around the connecting shaft 311, the first connecting part 312 drives the pressing block 3121 to move towards the water-blocking device; when the second connecting part 313 rotates to the third angular position, the pressing block 3121 contacts the water-blocking element; when it rotates to the fourth angular position, the pressing block 3121 causes the reset elastic element to deform to push the water-blocking element away from the sealing seat, thus fully opening the water outlet pipe 220. During this movement, the safety gap is eliminated, and the pressing block 3121 and the water-blocking element form a hard contact force transmission.
[0040] In this embodiment, through the integrally formed first connecting part 312 and second connecting part 313 with a predetermined included angle, the user rotates the second connecting part 313, thereby driving the first connecting part 312 to rotate along the connecting shaft 311, so that the pressing block 3121 presses the water blocking device, thereby opening the water outlet pipe 220.
[0041] In one possible implementation, the door 100 has a recessed mounting groove on the side away from the box, the water outlet of the water pipe 220 is located at the top of the mounting groove, and the adjusting device 300 is connected to the mounting groove.
[0042] In this embodiment, the outline of the mounting groove matches the shape of the adjusting device 300 and the end of the water outlet pipe 220, so that the adjusting device 300 and the water outlet pipe 220 are arranged in the mounting groove, which not only protects the above components, but also makes the appearance of the refrigeration equipment flat and beautiful, and makes it convenient for users to operate the water dispensing switch 310 and connect to water.
[0043] In one possible implementation, the fixing member includes a first fixing member 320 and a second fixing member 330. The first fixing member 320 is fixedly connected to the mounting groove of the door body 100, and the second fixing member 330 is movably connected to the water tap switch 310. The first fixing member 320 and the second fixing member 330 are fixedly connected.
[0044] In this embodiment, the separate design of the fasteners facilitates the installation, positioning, and replacement of each component. Specifically, the first fastener 320 is used for a secure connection with the door 100, while the second fastener 330 is used to support the rotation of the water dispenser switch 310.
[0045] In one possible implementation, please refer to Figure 5The first fastener 320 includes a connecting surface, which includes a first surface 321, a second surface 322, and a side surface connecting the first surface 321 and the second surface 322. The first surface 321 surrounds the second surface 322, and a second angle is formed between the first surface 321 and the second surface 322. The second angle is an acute angle. The second surface 322 is close to the housing.
[0046] Optionally, the first surface 321 also has a slot that engages with the mounting groove for fitting and fixing to the wall of the mounting groove.
[0047] Optionally, the first fastener 320 can also be fixed to the inner wall of the mounting groove of the door body 100 or other reserved positions by means of screws, clips, or adhesive. No specific limitation is made here.
[0048] In this embodiment, the second surface 322 is a concave surface that is inclined relative to the first surface 321. Its inclination angle can match and accommodate part of the water outlet pipe 220 and the water intake switch 310, ensuring that the adjustment device 300 is located in the mounting groove.
[0049] This optimizes the space utilization of the refrigeration equipment.
[0050] The connecting surface has a first through hole 323; the first fixing member 320 further includes a cylindrical extension 324 extending outward from the inner wall of the first through hole 323; wherein the central axis of the extension 324 forms a first angle with the connecting surface, and the first angle is an acute angle.
[0051] Specifically, the central axis of the extension 324 is inclined so that the water outlet pipe 220 extends downward relative to the water storage chamber 210, making it easier for the user to take water.
[0052] The connecting surface and the extension 324 are respectively matched with the shape of the mounting groove and the water outlet pipe 220 located at least partially in the mounting groove.
[0053] The first fastener 320 is connected inside the door body 100.
[0054] In this embodiment, by designing the shape, angle and fixed position of the first fixing member 320 in the mounting groove, not only is the operation of the water dispensing switch 310 realized, but the appearance of the entire refrigeration equipment is also guaranteed.
[0055] In one possible implementation, please refer to Figure 5 The first surface 321 includes at least one second through hole 3211, please refer to Figure 6 The second fastener 330 includes at least one third through hole 331.
[0056] The fastener also includes a first connector, which is fixedly connected to the first fastener 320 and the second fastener 330 via the second through hole 3211 and the third through hole 331.
[0057] Optionally, the first surface 321 may include two second through holes 3211, and the second fixing member 330 may include two third through holes 331. The second through holes 3211 and the third through holes 331 are symmetrically designed on both sides of the first surface 321 and the second fixing member 330, so that no relative displacement occurs between the first fixing bracket and the second fixing member 330. The fixing member includes two first fixing members 320 to correspondingly connect the second through holes 3211 and the third through holes 331.
[0058] It should be noted that, in addition to the fixing method in this embodiment, the first surface 321 of the first fixing member 320 and the second fixing member 330 can also be fixedly connected in other ways, which are not specifically limited here.
[0059] In one possible implementation, please refer to Figure 6 The second fixing member 330 includes a first region and a second region. The first region is used to be fixedly connected to the first surface 321 of the first fixing member 320, and the second region forms an accommodating space with the second surface 322 of the first fixing member 320 to accommodate the water tap 310.
[0060] In this embodiment, the third through hole 331 is located in the first region and is fixedly connected to the first surface 321 of the first fixing member 320. The second region is correspondingly provided with the second surface 322 of the first fixing member 320, and a space is left between the second region and the second surface 322 to accommodate the water dispensing switch 310.
[0061] In one possible implementation, please refer to Figure 6 The second region, on the side closest to the second surface 322, includes a first card slot 332 and a second card slot 333.
[0062] The connecting shaft 311 includes a first end and a second end opposite to each other. The first end and the second end are respectively embedded in the first slot 332 and the second slot 333, so that the water tap 310 is movably connected to the second fixing member 330.
[0063] A return spring is provided between the connecting shaft 311 and the second region.
[0064] Specifically, the reset spring keeps the water dispensing switch 310 in the first angle position when the water is blocked. When the user rotates the second connecting part 313 to drive the water dispensing switch 310 to rotate to the second angle position against the spring force of the reset spring, water is discharged from the outlet pipe 220. After the water is dispensing is finished, the reset spring releases energy to drive the connecting shaft 311 and the entire water dispensing switch 310 to automatically rotate and reset to the first angle position, and at the same time the water blocking device shuts off the water flow.
[0065] In this embodiment, the water dispensing switch 310 is rotatably connected to the second fixing member 330, and it is also ensured that the water dispensing switch 310 can automatically reset to the initial closed state after operation, thereby improving the user experience and reducing the risk of leakage of the water storage tank 200 due to the water dispensing switch 310 not resetting.
[0066] In one possible implementation, please refer to Figure 7 The refrigeration equipment also includes a water pipe connector 400 located inside the water outlet channel 101 near one end of the housing. The inner wall shape of the water pipe connector 400 matches the outer wall of the water outlet pipe 220 and is used to fix the water outlet pipe 220.
[0067] It should be noted that the other end of the water pipe connector 400 can be fitted and connected to the extension 324 of the first fixing member 320. Specifically, it can be connected to the fourth connection 3241 of the extension 324 through the third connection 401. In this way, the water outlet pipe 220, the water pipe connector 400, the extension 324 and the water outlet channel 101 form a multi-layer fitted structure, which can achieve heat preservation and sealing of the water flowing out of the water storage chamber 210.
[0068] In one possible implementation, please refer to Figure 3 The water storage tank 200 also includes a connecting slot 230.
[0069] Please refer to Figure 2 The door 100 also includes a connecting protrusion 110 on the side near the box body.
[0070] The connecting slot 230 engages with the connecting protrusion 110 to fix the water tank 200 onto the door 100.
[0071] Specifically, in a direction parallel to the horizontal plane, the two side walls of the water tank 200 are designed with two sets of connecting slots 230 to fit the corresponding connecting protrusions 110 on both sides of the door 100, so that the water tank 200 is snapped onto the door 100.
[0072] It should be noted that, in order to reduce the frequency of water changes in the water storage tank 200 and improve the user experience, the volume of the water storage tank 200 can be increased as much as possible, provided that it is compatible with the door body 100.
[0073] Optionally, when assembling the above components, the first fixing member 320 can be fixed to the door body 100 before foaming; after foaming is completed, a complete foamed refrigeration equipment door body 100 can be formed; then the water tap 310, the second fixing member 330 and other components can be fixed to the first fixing member 320; then the water pipe connector 400 can be rotated and inserted into the first fixing member 320; finally, the connecting slot 230 of the water storage tank 200 and the connecting protrusion 110 of the door body 100 can be installed to complete the fixing of the water storage box.
[0074] In summary, this utility model provides a refrigeration device, including: a door 100 and a housing connected to the door 100; a water outlet channel 101 is provided on the door 100; a water storage tank 200; the water storage tank 200 has a water storage cavity 210 and a water outlet pipe 220 communicating with the water storage cavity 210, the water storage tank 200 is located on the side of the door 100 near the housing; the water outlet pipe 220 extends through the water outlet channel 101; a water blocking device is provided at the end of the water outlet pipe 220 away from the water storage cavity 210; an adjusting device 300; the adjusting device 300 includes a water intake switch 310 and a fixing member provided on the door 100, the water intake switch 310 is connected to the fixing member, the water intake switch 310 can rotate along the fixing member and abut or separate from the water blocking device to control the water blocking device to close or open.
