Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of refrigeration equipment technology, and specifically relates to a refrigeration device. Background Technology
[0002] In related technologies, the refrigeration equipment includes a refrigerator compartment with shelves for placing food. The refrigeration equipment also includes an evaporator located on one side of the refrigerator compartment, where the portion of the refrigerator compartment opposite the evaporator has a lower temperature.
[0003] When food placed on the shelves touches the inner wall of the refrigerator compartment opposite the evaporator, the food is easily frozen, affecting its freshness and subsequent taste, and greatly reducing the performance and market competitiveness of the refrigeration equipment. Utility Model Content
[0004] This application aims to address at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related technologies.
[0005] Therefore, this application proposes a refrigeration device.
[0006] In view of this, this application proposes a refrigeration device, comprising: a device body, wherein a refrigeration chamber is provided within the device body; an evaporator, disposed within the device body, wherein the evaporator is located on one side of the refrigeration chamber along a height direction perpendicular to the device body; and a shelf assembly, located within the refrigeration chamber, the shelf assembly comprising: a shelf, wherein the shelf is detachably connected to the inner wall of the refrigeration chamber; and a baffle structure, wherein the baffle structure is located between the shelf and the evaporator, wherein at least a portion of the baffle structure protrudes from the outer surface of the shelf in the height direction of the device body, and the baffle structure is used to separate the shelf and the evaporator.
[0007] This application provides a refrigeration device comprising a device body, an evaporator, and a shelf assembly. The shelf assembly includes shelves and baffle structures.
[0008] The refrigeration equipment includes a refrigerator compartment. The evaporator is located within the main body of the equipment, perpendicular to its height, and situated on one side of the refrigerator compartment. Shelf assemblies are installed inside the refrigerator compartment. The shelves of the shelf assembly are detachably connected to the inner wall of the refrigerator compartment; that is, the shelf assembly can be installed inside the refrigerator compartment according to actual usage needs, or it can be removed from the refrigerator compartment to separate the equipment body and the shelf assembly. The shelf assembly serves to hold food.
[0009] A baffle structure is located around the shelf, between the shelf and the evaporator, serving to separate the two. At least a portion of the baffle structure protrudes from the outer surface of the shelf along the height of the equipment body; that is, at least a portion of the baffle structure forms a side wall of the shelf. Alternatively, at least a portion of the baffle structure is positioned higher than the shelf along the height of the equipment body. The baffle structure effectively blocks food items on the shelf, separating them from the inner wall of the refrigerator compartment opposite the evaporator, preventing food from contacting the inner wall of the refrigerator compartment opposite the evaporator.
[0010] Understandably, when refrigeration equipment is operating, the surface temperature of the evaporator is low. Consequently, the temperature of the inner wall of the refrigerator compartment, which is opposite the evaporator, is also relatively low. When food is placed on the shelves of the shelf assembly, the baffle structure blocks the food, preventing the inner wall of the refrigerator compartment opposite the evaporator from contacting the food and thus avoiding frostbite due to excessive cold.
[0011] At the same time, the baffle structure prevents frost from forming on the inner walls of the refrigerator compartment near the evaporator from coming into contact with the food, thus preventing spoilage and providing structural support for ensuring the freshness of the food.
[0012] Furthermore, at least a portion of the baffle structure protrudes from the outer surface of the shelf in the height direction of the equipment body. The baffle structure can block the juice or debris of the food, preventing the juice or debris from falling below the shelf, thus reducing the difficulty of subsequent cleaning and maintenance of the refrigeration equipment.
[0013] In addition, the baffle structure also guides the flow of cold air in the refrigerator compartment, preventing the cold air from being directly absorbed by the low-temperature area near the evaporator. This avoids the formation of undesirable air stagnation zones between the evaporator and the shelves, ensuring the temperature uniformity in the refrigerator compartment. This helps to distribute the cooling capacity more evenly, improves the energy efficiency of the refrigeration equipment, and enhances its performance and market competitiveness.
[0014] In some technical solutions, the baffle structure optionally includes: a connecting part that is detachably connected to the shelf; and a baffle that extends from the connecting part along the height direction of the equipment body and is disposed opposite to the evaporator.
[0015] In this technical solution, the baffle structure includes a connecting part and a baffle. The baffle and the connecting part are connected.
[0016] The connecting part is detachable from the shelf. That is, the baffle structure can be assembled with the shelf according to actual use needs, or the baffle structure can be separated from the shelf. While ensuring the reliability of the connection between the shelf and the baffle structure, it is convenient to clean and maintain the shelf and the baffle structure, and reduces the possibility of bacterial growth.
[0017] The baffle extends from the connecting part along the height of the equipment body and is positioned opposite the evaporator. In other words, the structure of the baffle has been refined. The baffle is located between the shelf and the evaporator and can effectively separate the shelf and the evaporator. It can effectively prevent food from sticking out to the inner wall of the refrigerator compartment opposite the evaporator, thus providing structural support to ensure the freshness of the food.
[0018] In addition, when tall items (such as plastic containers, glass bottles) or fragile items such as eggs are placed on top of the shelf, even if the shelf is accidentally pulled out, the items located at the baffle will not fall off the shelf due to the baffle's action, thus protecting the items on the shelf.
[0019] Optionally, in some technical solutions, the connecting part is provided with a slot, the shelf includes a shelf plate, a portion of the shelf plate is inserted into the slot, and the slot is interference-fitted with the shelf plate; wherein, the connecting part has a first end face and a second end face in a first direction, and the slot passes through the first end face and the second end face.
[0020] In this technical solution, the connecting part is provided with a slot, and the connecting part has a first end face and a second end face in a first direction, with the slot penetrating through the first end face and the second end face. That is, the extension direction of the slot is defined, and the slot is a through groove that extends from the first end face to the second end face.
[0021] A portion of the shelf is inserted into the slot; that is, a portion of the shelf is inserted into the slot through the opening of the slot. The slot and the shelf have an interference fit, ensuring that the baffle structure and the shelf are firmly and reliably assembled together, preventing the baffle structure from loosening or falling off. Furthermore, the mating structure of the slot and the shelf not only ensures effective assembly of the baffle structure and the shelf, but also eliminates the need for additional components such as fasteners and adhesives, offering the advantage of ease of operation.
[0022] By defining the extension direction of the slot and the assembly structure of the slot and shelf, the shelf can be quickly installed and disassembled, which helps improve the assembly and disassembly efficiency of refrigeration equipment and reduces the production cost of refrigeration equipment.
[0023] In some technical solutions, optionally, along the height direction of the device body, the groove wall of the slot includes a first groove wall and a second groove wall arranged opposite to each other and spaced apart, at least one of the first groove wall and the second groove wall is provided with an elastic protrusion, and the elastic protrusion abuts against the shelf.
[0024] In this technical solution, the structure of the card slot is refined.
[0025] The slot wall includes a first slot wall and a second slot wall. Along the height of the device body, the first and second slot walls are arranged opposite each other and spaced apart. It can be understood that the first and second slot walls are the two side walls of the slot.
[0026] At least one of the first and second groove walls is provided with an elastic protrusion. That is, the first groove wall is provided with an elastic protrusion, or the second groove wall is provided with an elastic protrusion, or both the first and second groove walls are provided with elastic protrusions.
[0027] The elastic protrusion abuts against the shelf and has a certain degree of elasticity. The elastic protrusion can adapt to the thickness of the shelf to improve the usability of the baffle structure while ensuring the effective assembly of the shelf and baffle structure. The baffle structure can be effectively assembled with shelves of different thicknesses.
[0028] Understandably, when the shelf is inserted into the slot, the elastic protrusion can contact the end face of the shelf and apply a certain elastic pressure, which can clamp and fix the shelf, enhance the stability and reliability of the shelf and the connection. In this way, even if the refrigeration equipment is used in a scenario of frequent door opening and closing and frequent movement of items, it can prevent the baffle structure from shifting, loosening or even falling off.
[0029] It is understandable that the elastic protrusion abuts against the shelf, and the contact between the elastic protrusion and the shelf is a point contact, line contact, or small area surface contact. This not only enhances the clamping force, but also restricts the shelf from moving or rotating in the slot. This not only reduces the assembly difficulty of the shelf and the connecting part, but also ensures the stability of the assembly of the shelf and the connecting part.
[0030] In some technical solutions, optionally, when one of the first groove wall and the second groove wall is provided with an elastic protrusion, the distance between the other of the first groove wall and the elastic protrusion is less than or equal to the thickness of the shelf.
[0031] In this technical solution, when the first groove wall is provided with an elastic protrusion, the distance between the second groove wall and the elastic protrusion is less than or equal to the thickness of the shelf. The shelf is sandwiched between the second groove wall and the elastic protrusion.
[0032] When the second groove wall is provided with an elastic protrusion, the distance between the first groove wall and the elastic protrusion is less than or equal to the thickness of the shelf. The shelf is sandwiched between the first groove wall and the elastic protrusion.
[0033] That is, the first or second groove wall with elastic protrusions has a gap with the second or first groove wall without elastic protrusions. This gap is used to accommodate the shelf, so that the shelf can be effectively clamped, realizing a stable assembly of the shelf and the connecting part, preventing loosening or shaking. At the same time, it can also reduce the complexity of parts processing and reduce the production cost of the product.
[0034] Understandably, the elastic protrusion has a certain degree of elasticity. When the shelf is inserted into the slot, the elastic protrusion will be compressed to apply a force to the shelf toward the side without the elastic protrusion, so as to effectively clamp the shelf.
[0035] In some technical solutions, optionally, when both the first groove wall and the second groove wall are provided with elastic protrusions, the elastic protrusion of one of the first groove wall and the second groove wall is staggered from the elastic protrusion of the other of the first groove wall and the second groove wall. Along the direction from the first groove wall to the second groove wall, the distance between the elastic protrusion of the first groove wall and the elastic protrusion of the second groove wall is less than or equal to the thickness of the shelf.
[0036] In this technical solution, when both the first and second tank walls are provided with elastic protrusions, the elastic protrusions of the first and second tank walls are staggered. Specifically, along the direction from the evaporator to the shelf, the elastic protrusions of the first and second tank walls are staggered. That is, the elastic protrusions of the first tank wall are opposite to the portion of the second tank wall without elastic protrusions, and the elastic protrusions of the second tank wall are opposite to the portion of the first tank wall without elastic protrusions.
[0037] Along the direction from the first groove wall to the second groove wall, the distance between the elastic protrusions of the first groove wall and the elastic protrusions of the second groove wall is less than or equal to the thickness of the shelf. That is, the elastic protrusions of the first groove wall abut against the first side of the shelf, and the elastic protrusions of the second groove wall abut against the second side of the shelf, so that the shelf can be effectively clamped, achieving a stable assembly of the shelf and the connecting part, preventing loosening or shaking. At the same time, it can also reduce the complexity of parts processing and reduce the production cost of the product.
[0038] In addition, by reasonably setting the cooperative structure of the elastic protrusions on the first groove wall and the elastic protrusions on the second groove wall, the clamping force can be applied more evenly to different positions of the shelf, further ensuring the stability and reliability of the assembly of the shelf and the connecting part.
[0039] In some technical solutions, optionally, when both the first groove wall and the second groove wall are provided with elastic protrusions, the elastic protrusions of the first groove wall and the elastic protrusions of the second groove wall are arranged opposite to each other and spaced apart, and the distance between the elastic protrusions of the first groove wall and the elastic protrusions of the second groove wall arranged opposite to each other is less than or equal to the thickness of the shelf.
[0040] In this technical solution, when the first groove wall is provided with elastic protrusions and the second groove wall is provided with elastic protrusions, the elastic protrusions of the first groove wall and the elastic protrusions of the second groove wall are arranged opposite to each other and spaced apart.
[0041] The distance between the elastic protrusions of the first groove wall and the elastic protrusions of the second groove wall is less than or equal to the thickness of the shelf, and the shelf is sandwiched between the elastic protrusions of the first groove wall and the elastic protrusions of the second groove wall.
[0042] That is, there is a gap between the elastic protrusions of the first groove wall and the elastic protrusions of the second groove wall. This gap is used to accommodate the shelf, so that the shelf can be effectively clamped, achieving a stable assembly of the shelf and the connecting part, preventing loosening or shaking. At the same time, it can also reduce the complexity of parts processing and reduce the production cost of the product.
[0043] Understandably, the elastic protrusion has a certain degree of elasticity. When the shelf is inserted into the slot, the elastic protrusion will be compressed to apply a force to the shelf toward the side without the elastic protrusion, so as to effectively clamp the shelf.
[0044] In some technical solutions, optionally, there are multiple elastic bumps, and at least one of the multiple elastic bumps is located at the opening of the slot.
[0045] In this technical solution, the number of elastic bumps and the arrangement position of the elastic bumps are refined.
[0046] There are multiple elastic protrusions, and at least one of the elastic protrusions is located at the opening of the slot. That is, at least the insertion of the slot is interference-fitted with the shelf to effectively clamp the shelf, ensure a stable assembly of the shelf and the connecting part, and prevent loosening or shaking.
[0047] There are multiple elastic protrusions, which can press and fix the shelf from multiple positions to ensure a stable assembly of the shelf and the connecting parts, and prevent loosening or shaking.
[0048] In some technical solutions, optionally, the portion of the second groove wall located between the groove opening and the groove bottom wall of the slot is provided with a first elastic structure, which is used to support the shelf.
[0049] In this technical solution, the second groove wall located between the groove opening and the bottom wall of the groove is provided with a first elastic structure. The first elastic structure is used to support the shelf. When the shelf is assembled with the groove, the first elastic structure guides the displacement of the shelf, so that the shelf can be smoothly inserted into the groove, simplifying the assembly difficulty and improving the assembly efficiency.
[0050] In some technical solutions, optionally, the bottom wall of the slot is provided with a second elastic structure, which abuts against the shelf.
[0051] In this technical solution, the bottom wall of the slot is provided with a second elastic structure, which abuts against the shelf. The second elastic structure supports the shelf, especially in situations where the refrigeration equipment is in use with opening and closing doors or vibrations, effectively preventing the shelf from shaking up and down, and improving the stability and reliability of the shelf and connecting parts assembly.
[0052] The second elastic structure is positioned so that the shelf will not contact the bottom wall of the slot. The second elastic structure has a certain degree of elasticity and elastic deformation capability. When the shelf is inserted into the slot or subjected to external impact, the second elastic structure can absorb the impact force under pressure, playing a buffering and shock-absorbing role. This reduces the hard collision and friction between the shelf and the bottom wall of the slot. When the refrigeration equipment is used for a long time, it can reduce the wear of the baffle structure caused by opening and closing the door and vibration, extend the service life of the baffle structure, and also protect the shelf.
[0053] When the slot is equipped with an elastic protrusion and a second elastic structure, the elastic protrusion and the second elastic structure work together to support and fix the shelf from multiple directions and angles, which can enhance the overall structure's vibration resistance and loosening resistance, and help improve the stability and reliability of the assembly.
[0054] In some technical solutions, the connecting part optionally includes: a first plate, a baffle connected to the first plate; a second plate, arranged at intervals on one side of the first plate along the height direction of the equipment body; and a third plate, connected between the first plate and the second plate, with a slot formed between the first plate, the second plate and the third plate, the connection between the third plate and the first plate having a first rounded corner, and the connection between the third plate and the second plate having a second rounded corner.
[0055] In this technical solution, the connecting part includes a first plate, a second plate, and a third plate.
[0056] The baffle is connected to the first plate, which serves as the mounting carrier for the baffle and has the function of installing and fixing the baffle.
[0057] Along the height of the equipment body, the second plate is spaced apart on one side of the first plate. The third plate is connected to the first plate and to the second plate, forming a slot between the first, second, and third plates. That is, the first and second plates form the two sidewalls of the slot, and the third plate forms the bottom wall of the slot.
[0058] The connection between the third plate and the first plate has a first rounded corner, meaning the connection between the third plate and the first plate has a rounded transition. The connection between the third plate and the second plate has a second rounded corner, meaning the connection between the third plate and the second plate has a rounded transition. This design of the first and second rounded corners improves the sharp corner structure at the connection between the third plate and the first plate, preventing scratches and collisions caused by the right angle at the connection between the third plate and the first plate, and also preventing cracks or even breakage due to stress concentration. This helps to extend the service life of the baffle structure and improves the safety and reliability of the product.
[0059] It is understandable that when the connection between at least one of the first and second plates and the third plate is a right-angle structure, the right-angle structure becomes a stress concentration area, which is prone to cracking, deformation, or even fracture when the baffle structure is under stress. Therefore, by setting the first and second rounded corners, the stress can be distributed more evenly at the connection between the first, second, and third plates, reducing local stress concentration. This is beneficial for improving the structural strength and fatigue resistance of the connection between the first, second, and third plates, extending the product's service life, and improving the structure's durability.
[0060] In addition, the design of the first and second rounded corners makes it easier for the shelf to be inserted into the slot, reducing the assembly resistance between the shelf and the slot and ensuring the smooth assembly of the shelf and baffle structure.
[0061] In some technical solutions, optionally, the radius corresponding to the first rounded corner is greater than the radius corresponding to the second rounded corner.
[0062] In this technical solution, the matching structure of the first rounded corner and the second rounded corner is refined.
[0063] The radius of the first rounded corner is larger than the radius of the second rounded corner. The first plate connects to the baffle, meaning the first plate acts as the load point of the connection. During the assembly of the shelf and the connection, assembly stress can be transmitted to the connection, particularly to the connection between the third plate and the first plate. Therefore, making the radius of the first rounded corner larger than the radius of the second rounded corner results in a smoother transition at the connection between the first and third plates compared to the connection between the third and second plates. This more effectively disperses stress, further reducing stress concentration, improving the structural strength of the connection, reducing cracks and fractures, and extending the service life of the baffle structure.
[0064] It is understandable that the load force at the connection between the second and third plates is relatively small. Therefore, the radius of the second rounded corner at the connection between the second and third plates is relatively small, which can ensure the internal shape of the slot and the effective internal space of the slot, providing space support for the effective assembly of the slot and the shelf.
[0065] In some technical solutions, optionally, the portion of the third plate located between the first and second rounded corners is an inclined plate, and the distance from the inclined plate to the evaporator gradually increases along the direction from the second rounded corner to the first rounded corner.
[0066] In this technical solution, the portion of the third plate located between the first and second rounded corners is an inclined plate. The inclined plate extends at an angle; specifically, along the direction from the second rounded corner to the first rounded corner, the distance between the inclined plate and the evaporator gradually increases. The inclined plate can better transfer force to the first and second plates, which is beneficial for improving the overall stability of the connection and the strength of the overall structure, providing structural support for extending the service life of the baffle structure.
[0067] In some technical solutions, optionally, the end face of the first plate that faces away from the third plate is a first arc-shaped surface.
[0068] In this technical solution, the structure of the first plate is refined so that the end face of the first plate facing away from the third plate is a first arc-shaped surface. The first arc-shaped surface has the effect of removing burrs and flash, ensuring the safety requirements during the assembly of the refrigeration equipment, avoiding scratches on users, and avoiding scratches on other components inside the refrigeration equipment during assembly.
[0069] In some technical solutions, the second plate may optionally include a first connecting section and a second connecting section, with the first connecting section located between the second connecting section and the third plate; both the first plate and the first connecting section extend along the direction from the evaporator to the baffle structure, and the second connecting section extends obliquely from the first connecting section toward the first plate.
[0070] In this technical solution, the second plate includes a first connecting segment and a second connecting segment, with the first connecting segment located between the second connecting segment and the third plate.
[0071] The first plate extends along the direction from the evaporator to the baffle structure, the first connecting section extends along the same direction, and the second connecting section extends obliquely from the first connecting section toward the first plate. Alternatively, the second connecting section extends inwards at an inward angle, forming a diagonally inward connecting section. Therefore, the slot forms a gradually changing structure at the second connecting section, which acts as a guide, allowing the shelf to be inserted into the slot more smoothly and improving assembly efficiency.
[0072] In some technical solutions, optionally, the side of the baffle away from the connecting part is a second arc-shaped surface.
[0073] In this technical solution, the structure of the baffle is refined so that the side of the baffle away from the connecting part is a second arc-shaped surface. The second arc-shaped surface has the effect of removing burrs and flash, ensuring the safety requirements during the assembly of the refrigeration equipment, avoiding scratches to users, and avoiding scratches to other components inside the refrigeration equipment during assembly.
[0074] In some technical solutions, optionally, the baffle structure is located on at least one side of the shelf along its circumference.
[0075] In this technical solution, the arrangement of the baffle structure is refined.
[0076] Along the circumference of the shelf, the baffle structure is located on at least one side of the shelf. For example, along the circumference of the shelf, the baffle structure is located on one side of the shelf. For example, along the circumference of the shelf, the baffle structure is located on two adjacent sides of the shelf. For example, along the circumference of the shelf, the baffle structure is located on three adjacent sides of the shelf.
[0077] In other words, the baffle structure can be positioned specifically according to the location of the evaporator to ensure the effectiveness and reliability of the separation rack and the evaporator.

[0095] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 9 The refrigeration device 10 is described according to an embodiment of the present utility model.
[0096] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a refrigeration device 10 according to some embodiments of the present invention includes: a device body 100, wherein a refrigerator compartment 110 is provided inside the device body 100; an evaporator 200 disposed inside the device body 100, wherein the evaporator 200 is located on one side of the refrigerator compartment 110 along a height direction perpendicular to the device body 100; and a shelf assembly 300 located inside the refrigerator compartment 110, wherein the shelf assembly 300 includes: a shelf 310, wherein the shelf 310 is detachably connected to the inner wall of the refrigerator compartment 110; and a baffle structure 320 located between the shelf 310 and the evaporator 200, wherein at least a portion of the baffle structure 320 protrudes from the outer surface of the shelf 310 in the height direction of the device body 100, and the baffle structure 320 is used to separate the shelf 310 and the evaporator 200.
[0097] The refrigeration device 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a device body 100, an evaporator 200, and a shelf assembly 300. The shelf assembly 300 includes a shelf 310 and a baffle structure 320.
[0098] The refrigeration equipment 10 includes a refrigerator compartment 110. An evaporator 200 is located within the equipment body 100, perpendicular to the height of the refrigeration equipment 10, and situated on one side of the refrigerator compartment 110. A shelf assembly 300 is installed within the refrigerator compartment 110. The shelves 310 of the shelf assembly 300 are detachably connected to the inner wall of the refrigerator compartment 110. That is, the shelf assembly 300 can be installed within the refrigerator compartment 110 according to actual usage needs, or it can be removed from the refrigerator compartment 110 to separate the equipment body 100 and the shelf assembly 300. The shelf assembly 300 serves to hold food items.
[0099] A baffle structure 320 is located around the shelf 310 and separates the shelf 310 from the evaporator 200; that is, the baffle structure 320 is located between the shelf 310 and the evaporator 200. At least a portion of the baffle structure 320 protrudes from the outer surface of the shelf 310 in the height direction of the device body 100, that is, at least a portion of the baffle structure 320 forms a sidewall of the shelf 310. Alternatively, at least a portion of the baffle structure 320 is positioned higher than the shelf 310 in the height direction of the device body 100. The baffle structure 320 can block food on the shelf 310, separating the food on the shelf 310 from the inner wall of the refrigerator compartment 110 opposite to the evaporator 200, preventing food from contacting the inner wall of the refrigerator compartment 110 opposite to the evaporator 200.
[0100] Understandably, when the refrigeration unit 10 is operating, the surface temperature of the evaporator 200 is relatively low. Consequently, the temperature of the inner wall of the refrigerator compartment 110, which is opposite to the evaporator 200, is also relatively low. When food is placed on the shelf 310 of the shelf assembly 300, the baffle structure 320 blocks the food, preventing the inner wall of the refrigerator compartment 110 opposite to the evaporator 200 from contacting the food and thus avoiding frostbite due to excessive cold.
[0101] Meanwhile, the baffle structure 320 prevents frost from forming on part of the inner wall of the refrigerator compartment 110 near the evaporator 200 from coming into contact with the food, thus preventing the food from spoiling and providing structural support for ensuring the freshness of the food.
[0102] Furthermore, at least a portion of the baffle structure 320 protrudes from the outer surface of the shelf 310 in the height direction of the device body 100. The baffle structure 320 can block the juice or debris of the food, preventing the juice or debris from falling below the shelf 310, thus reducing the difficulty of subsequent cleaning and maintenance of the refrigeration device 10.
[0103] In addition, the baffle structure 320 also guides the flow of cold air in the refrigerator compartment 110, preventing the cold air from being directly absorbed by the low-temperature area near the evaporator 200, avoiding the formation of an undesirable air stagnation zone between the evaporator 200 and the shelf 310, ensuring the temperature balance in the refrigerator compartment 110, helping to distribute the cooling capacity more evenly, and improving the energy efficiency of the refrigeration equipment 10.
[0104] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the baffle structure 320 includes: a connecting part 321, which is detachably connected to the shelf 310; and a baffle 322, which extends from the connecting part 321 along the height direction of the equipment body 100 and is disposed opposite to the evaporator 200.
[0105] Specifically, the baffle structure 320 includes a connecting part 321 and a baffle 322. The baffle 322 and the connecting part 321 are connected.
[0106] The connecting part 321 is detachably connected to the shelf 310. That is, the baffle structure 320 and the shelf 310 can be assembled together according to actual use needs, or the baffle structure 320 and the shelf 310 can be separated. While ensuring the reliability of the connection between the shelf 310 and the baffle structure 320, it is convenient to clean and maintain the shelf 310 and the baffle structure 320, and reduces the possibility of bacterial growth.
[0107] Baffle 322 extends from the connecting part 321 along the height direction of the equipment body 100, and is disposed opposite to the evaporator 200. That is, the structure of baffle 322 is refined. Baffle 322 is located between shelf 310 and evaporator 200. Baffle 322 can effectively separate shelf 310 and evaporator 200, and can effectively prevent food from extending to the inner wall of refrigerator compartment 110 opposite to evaporator 200, thus providing structural support to ensure the freshness of food.
[0108] In addition, when tall items (such as plastic containers, glass bottles) or fragile items such as eggs are placed on the shelf 310, even if the shelf 310 is accidentally pulled out, the items located at the baffle 322 will not fall outside the shelf 310 due to the action of the baffle 322, thus protecting the items on the shelf 310.
[0109] Understandably, the shelf 310 and the baffle structure 320 are L-shaped.
[0110] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown, the connecting part 321 is provided with a slot 323, and the shelf 310 includes a shelf 312. A part of the shelf 312 is inserted into the slot 323, and the slot 323 is press-fitted with the shelf 312. The connecting part 321 has a first end face 324 and a second end face 325 in a first direction, and the slot 323 passes through the first end face 324 and the second end face 325.
[0111] Specifically, the connecting portion 321 is provided with a slot 323. The connecting portion 321 has a first end face 324 and a second end face 325 in a first direction. The slot 323 passes through the first end face 324 and the second end face 325. That is, it defines the extension direction of the slot 323. The slot 323 is a through groove that passes from the first end face 324 to the second end face 325.
[0112] A portion of the shelf 312 is inserted into the slot 323, that is, a portion of the shelf 312 is inserted into the slot 323 through the opening 329 of the slot. The slot 323 and the shelf 312 are interference-fitted, which ensures that the baffle structure 320 and the shelf 312 are firmly and reliably assembled together, preventing the baffle structure 320 from loosening or falling off. At the same time, the mating structure of the slot 323 and the shelf 312 not only ensures the effective assembly of the baffle structure 320 and the shelf 312, but also eliminates the need for additional components such as fasteners and adhesives to assemble the baffle structure 320 and the shelf 312, which has the advantage of convenient operation.
[0113] By defining the extension direction of the slot 323 and the assembly structure of the slot 323 and the shelf 312, the shelf 310 can be quickly installed and disassembled, which is beneficial to improving the assembly and disassembly efficiency of the refrigeration equipment 10 and reducing the production cost of the refrigeration equipment 10.
[0114] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 5 and Figure 9 As shown, along the height direction of the device body 100, the groove wall of the slot 323 includes a first groove wall 326 and a second groove wall 327 arranged opposite to each other and spaced apart. At least one of the first groove wall 326 and the second groove wall 327 is provided with an elastic protrusion 328, and the elastic protrusion 328 abuts against the shelf 312.
[0115] Specifically, the structure of the card slot 323 is refined.
[0116] The slot wall of the card slot 323 includes a first slot wall 326 and a second slot wall 327. Along the height direction of the device body 100, the first slot wall 326 and the second slot wall 327 are arranged opposite to each other and at intervals. It can be understood that the first slot wall 326 and the second slot wall 327 are the two side walls of the card slot 323.
[0117] At least one of the first groove wall 326 and the second groove wall 327 is provided with an elastic protrusion 328. That is, the first groove wall 326 is provided with an elastic protrusion 328, or the second groove wall 327 is provided with an elastic protrusion 328, or both the first groove wall 326 and the second groove wall 327 are provided with elastic protrusions 328.
[0118] The elastic protrusion 328 abuts against the shelf 312. The elastic protrusion 328 has a certain elasticity and can adapt to the thickness of the shelf 312 to ensure the effective assembly of the shelf 310 and the baffle structure 320, while improving the usability of the baffle structure 320. The baffle structure 320 can be effectively assembled with shelves 312 of different thicknesses.
[0119] It is understandable that the shelf 312 serves to support food. Exemplary examples include glass shelves, plastic shelves, etc., which will not be listed here.
[0120] Understandably, when the shelf 312 is inserted into the slot 323, the elastic protrusion 328 can contact the end face of the shelf 312 and apply a certain elastic pressure, which can clamp and fix the shelf 312, and enhance the stability and reliability of the assembly of the shelf 312 and the connecting part 321. In this way, even if the refrigeration equipment 10 is used in a scenario of frequent door opening and closing and frequent movement of items, it can prevent the baffle structure 320 from shifting, loosening or even falling off.
[0121] It is understandable that the elastic protrusion 328 abuts against the shelf 312. The contact between the elastic protrusion 328 and the shelf 312 is a point contact, a line contact, or a small area of surface contact. This not only enhances the clamping force but also restricts the shelf 312 from moving or rotating within the slot 323. This not only reduces the assembly difficulty of the shelf 312 and the connecting part 321 but also ensures the stability of the assembly of the shelf 312 and the connecting part 321.
[0122] According to some embodiments of the present invention, when one of the first groove wall 326 and the second groove wall 327 is provided with an elastic protrusion 328, the distance between the other of the first groove wall 326 and the second groove wall 327 and the elastic protrusion 328 is less than or equal to the thickness of the shelf 312.
[0123] Specifically, when the first groove wall 326 is provided with an elastic protrusion 328, the distance between the second groove wall 327 and the elastic protrusion 328 is less than or equal to the thickness of the shelf 312. The shelf 312 is sandwiched between the second groove wall 327 and the elastic protrusion 328.
[0124] When the second groove wall 327 is provided with an elastic protrusion 328, the distance between the first groove wall 326 and the elastic protrusion 328 is less than or equal to the thickness of the shelf 312. The shelf 312 is sandwiched between the first groove wall 326 and the elastic protrusion 328.
[0125] That is, the first groove wall 326 or the second groove wall 327 with elastic protrusion 328 has a gap with the second groove wall 327 or the first groove wall 326 without elastic protrusion 328. This gap is used to accommodate the shelf 312, so that the shelf 312 can be effectively clamped, realizing the stable assembly of the shelf 312 and the connecting part 321, preventing loosening or shaking. At the same time, it can also reduce the complexity of parts processing and reduce the production cost of the product.
[0126] Understandably, the elastic protrusion 328 has a certain degree of elasticity. When the shelf 312 is inserted into the slot 323, the elastic protrusion 328 will be compressed to apply a force to the shelf 312 toward the side where the elastic protrusion 328 is not provided, so as to effectively clamp the shelf 312.
[0127] According to some embodiments of the present invention, when both the first groove wall 326 and the second groove wall 327 are provided with elastic protrusions 328, the elastic protrusions 328 of one of the first groove wall 326 and the second groove wall 327 are staggered from the elastic protrusions 328 of the other of the first groove wall 326 and the second groove wall 327. Along the direction from the first groove wall 326 to the second groove wall 327, the distance between the elastic protrusions 328 of the first groove wall 326 and the elastic protrusions 328 of the second groove wall 327 is less than or equal to the thickness of the shelf 312.
[0128] Specifically, when both the first tank wall 326 and the second tank wall 327 are provided with elastic protrusions 328, the elastic protrusions 328 of the first tank wall 326 and the elastic protrusions 328 of the second tank wall 327 are staggered. Specifically, along the direction from the evaporator 200 to the shelf 310, the elastic protrusions 328 of the first tank wall 326 and the elastic protrusions 328 of the second tank wall 327 are staggered. That is, the elastic protrusions 328 of the first tank wall 326 are opposite to the portion of the second tank wall 327 where no elastic protrusions 328 are provided, and the elastic protrusions 328 of the second tank wall 327 are opposite to the portion of the first tank wall 326 where no elastic protrusions 328 are provided.
[0129] Along the direction from the first groove wall 326 to the second groove wall 327, the distance between the elastic protrusions 328 of the first groove wall 326 and the elastic protrusions 328 of the second groove wall 327 is less than or equal to the thickness of the shelf 312. That is, the elastic protrusions 328 of the first groove wall 326 abut against the first side of the shelf 312, and the elastic protrusions 328 of the second groove wall 327 abut against the second side of the shelf 312, so that the shelf 312 can be effectively clamped, realizing the stable assembly of the shelf 312 and the connecting part 321, preventing loosening or shaking. At the same time, it can also reduce the complexity of parts processing and reduce the production cost of the product.
[0130] In addition, by reasonably setting the cooperative structure of the elastic protrusion 328 of the first groove wall 326 and the elastic protrusion 328 of the second groove wall 327, the clamping force can be applied more evenly to different positions of the shelf 312, further ensuring the stability and reliability of the assembly of the shelf 312 and the connecting part 321.
[0131] According to some embodiments of the present invention, when both the first groove wall 326 and the second groove wall 327 are provided with elastic protrusions 328, the elastic protrusions 328 of the first groove wall 326 and the elastic protrusions 328 of the second groove wall 327 are arranged opposite to each other and spaced apart, and the distance between the elastic protrusions 328 of the first groove wall 326 and the elastic protrusions 328 of the second groove wall 327 arranged opposite to each other is less than or equal to the thickness of the shelf 312.
[0132] Specifically, when the first groove wall 326 is provided with elastic protrusions 328 and the second groove wall 327 is provided with elastic protrusions 328, the elastic protrusions 328 of the first groove wall 326 and the elastic protrusions 328 of the second groove wall 327 are arranged opposite to each other and at intervals.
[0133] The distance between the elastic protrusions 328 of the first groove wall 326 and the elastic protrusions 328 of the second groove wall 327 is less than or equal to the thickness of the shelf 312, and the shelf 312 is sandwiched between the elastic protrusions 328 of the first groove wall 326 and the elastic protrusions 328 of the second groove wall 327.
[0134] That is, there is a gap between the elastic protrusion 328 of the first groove wall 326 and the elastic protrusion 328 of the second groove wall 327. This gap is used to accommodate the shelf 312, so that the shelf 312 can be effectively clamped, realizing the stable assembly of the shelf 312 and the connecting part 321, preventing loosening or shaking. At the same time, it can also reduce the complexity of parts processing and reduce the production cost of the product.
[0135] Understandably, the elastic protrusion 328 has a certain degree of elasticity. When the shelf 312 is inserted into the slot 323, the elastic protrusion 328 will be compressed to apply a force to the shelf 312 toward the side where the elastic protrusion 328 is not provided, so as to effectively clamp the shelf 312.
[0136] According to some embodiments of the present invention, there are multiple elastic protrusions 328, and at least one of the multiple elastic protrusions 328 is located at the slot 329 of the card slot.
[0137] Specifically, the number of elastic bumps 328 and the arrangement position of elastic bumps 328 are refined.
[0138] There are multiple elastic protrusions 328, and at least one of the multiple elastic protrusions 328 is located at the slot 329 of the slot. That is, at least the insertion of the slot 323 is interference-fitted with the shelf 312 to effectively clamp the shelf 312, ensuring the stable assembly of the shelf 312 and the connecting part 321 and preventing loosening or shaking.
[0139] The number of elastic protrusions 328 is multiple, which can press and fix the shelf 312 from multiple positions to ensure the stable assembly of the shelf 312 and the connecting part 321 and prevent loosening or shaking.
[0140] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 5 and Figure 9 As shown, the portion of the second groove wall 327 located between the groove opening 329 of the card slot and the groove bottom wall 330 of the card slot is provided with a first elastic structure 331, which is used to support the shelf 312.
[0141] Specifically, the portion of the second groove wall 327 located between the groove opening 329 and the groove bottom wall 330 of the slot is provided with a first elastic structure 331. The first elastic structure 331 is used to support the shelf 312. When the shelf 312 is assembled with the slot 323, the first elastic structure 331 has the function of guiding the displacement of the shelf 312, so that the shelf 312 can be smoothly inserted into the slot 323, simplifying the assembly difficulty and improving the assembly efficiency.
[0142] For example, when the shelf 312 is assembled in place, the first elastic structure 331 abuts against the shelf 312.
[0143] For example, when the shelf 312 is assembled in place, there is a gap between the first elastic structure 331 and the shelf 312. According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as... Figure 5 and Figure 9 As shown, the bottom wall 330 of the slot is provided with a second elastic structure 342, which abuts against the shelf 312.
[0144] Specifically, the bottom wall 330 of the slot is provided with a second elastic structure 342, which abuts against the shelf 312. The second elastic structure 342 has the function of supporting the shelf 312, especially when the refrigeration equipment 10 is in use scenarios where the door is opened and closed or vibrates, it can effectively prevent the shelf 312 from shaking up and down, and improve the stability and reliability of the assembly of the shelf 312 and the connecting part 321.
[0145] The second elastic structure 342 is positioned so that the shelf 312 will not contact the bottom wall 330 of the slot. The second elastic structure 342 has a certain elasticity and elastic deformation capability. When the shelf 312 is inserted into the slot 323 or is subjected to external impact, the second elastic structure 342 can absorb the impact force under pressure, playing a buffering and shock-absorbing role, reducing the hard collision and friction between the shelf 312 and the bottom wall 330 of the slot. When the refrigeration equipment 10 is used for a long time, it can reduce the wear of the baffle structure 320 caused by opening and closing the door and vibration, extend the service life of the baffle structure 320, and also protect the shelf 312.
[0146] When the slot 323 is provided with an elastic protrusion 328 and a second elastic structure 342, the elastic protrusion 328 and the second elastic structure 342 cooperate to support and fix the shelf 312 from multiple directions and angles, which can enhance the overall structure's vibration resistance and loosening resistance, and help improve the stability and reliability of the assembly.
[0147] In some other embodiments, the baffle structure 320 includes only the first resilient protrusion 328.
[0148] In some other embodiments, the baffle structure 320 includes only the second resilient protrusion 328.
[0149] In some other embodiments, the number of elastic bumps 328 is one.
[0150] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 9 As shown, the connecting part 321 includes: a first plate 332, a baffle 322 connected to the first plate 332; a second plate 333, arranged at intervals on one side of the first plate 332 along the height direction of the device body 100; and a third plate 334, connected between the first plate 332 and the second plate 333, forming a slot 323 between the first plate 332, the second plate 333 and the third plate 334, with a first rounded corner 335 at the connection between the third plate 334 and the first plate 332, and a second rounded corner 336 at the connection between the third plate 334 and the second plate 333.
[0151] Specifically, the connecting part 321 includes a first plate 332, a second plate 333, and a third plate 334.
[0152] The baffle 322 is connected to the first plate 332. The first plate 332 serves as the mounting carrier for the baffle 322 and has the function of installing and fixing the baffle 322.
[0153] Along the height direction of the device body 100, the second plate 333 is spaced apart on one side of the first plate 332. The third plate 334 is connected to the first plate 332 and the second plate 333, and the first plate 332, the second plate 333 and the third plate 334 enclose a slot 323. That is, the first plate 332 and the second plate 333 form the two sidewalls of the slot 323, and the third plate 334 forms the bottom wall 330 of the slot.
[0154] The connection between the third plate 334 and the first plate 332 has a first rounded corner 335, meaning the connection between the third plate 334 and the first plate 332 is a rounded transition. The connection between the third plate 334 and the second plate 333 has a second rounded corner 336, meaning the connection between the third plate 334 and the second plate 333 is a rounded transition. The structural design of the first rounded corner 335 and the second rounded corner 336 can improve the sharp corner structure at the connection between the third plate 334 and the first plate 332, and can also improve the sharp corner structure at the connection between the third plate 334 and the second plate 333, avoiding scratches and collisions caused by the right angle at the connection between the third plate 334 and the first plate 332, and also avoiding cracks or even breakage caused by stress concentration. This is beneficial to improving the service life of the baffle structure 320 and improving the safety and reliability of the product.
[0155] It is understandable that when the connection between at least one of the first plate 332 and the second plate 333 and the third plate 334 is a right-angle structure, the right-angle structure is a stress concentration area, which is prone to cracking, deformation, or even fracture when the baffle structure 320 is under stress. Therefore, by setting the first rounded corner 335 and the second rounded corner 336, the stress can be distributed more evenly at the connection between the first plate 332, the second plate 333, and the third plate 334, which can reduce local stress concentration, improve the structural strength and fatigue resistance of the connection between the first plate 332, the second plate 333, and the third plate 334, extend the service life of the product, and improve the durability of the structure.
[0156] In addition, the structural arrangement of the first rounded corner 335 and the second rounded corner 336 makes it easier for the shelf 312 to be inserted into the slot 323, reducing the assembly resistance of the shelf 312 and the slot 323, and ensuring the smooth assembly of the shelf 312 and the baffle structure 320.
[0157] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the radius corresponding to the first rounded corner 335 is greater than the radius corresponding to the second rounded corner 336.
[0158] Specifically, the mating structure of the first fillet 335 and the second fillet 336 is refined.
[0159] The radius corresponding to the first rounded corner 335 is larger than the radius corresponding to the second rounded corner 336. The first plate 332 is connected to the baffle 322; that is, the first plate 332 serves as the load point of the connecting part 321. When assembling the shelf 312 and the connecting part 321, the assembly stress can be transmitted to the connecting part 321, especially to the connection between the third plate 334 and the first plate 332. Therefore, by making the radius corresponding to the first rounded corner 335 larger than the radius corresponding to the second rounded corner 336, the connection between the first plate 332 and the third plate 334 will have a smoother transition compared to the connection between the third plate 334 and the second plate 333. This can more effectively disperse stress, further reduce stress concentration, improve the structural strength of the connection at the connecting part 321, reduce cracks and fractures, and extend the service life of the baffle structure 320.
[0160] It is understandable that the load force at the connection between the second plate 333 and the third plate 334 is relatively small. Therefore, the radius of the second rounded corner 336 at the connection between the second plate 333 and the third plate 334 is relatively small, which can ensure the internal shape of the slot 323, ensure the effective internal space of the slot 323, and provide space support for the effective assembly of the slot 323 and the shelf 312.
[0161] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 5 As shown, the portion of the third plate 334 located between the first rounded corner 335 and the second rounded corner 336 is an inclined plate 337. The distance from the inclined plate 337 to the evaporator 200 gradually increases along the direction from the second rounded corner 336 to the first rounded corner 335.
[0162] Specifically, the portion of the third plate 334 located between the first rounded corner 335 and the second rounded corner 336 is an inclined plate 337. The inclined plate 337 extends obliquely, specifically, along the direction from the second rounded corner 336 to the first rounded corner 335, the distance between the inclined plate 337 and the evaporator 200 gradually increases. The inclined plate 337 can better transfer the force to the first plate 332 and the second plate 333, which is beneficial to improving the overall stability of the connection of the connecting part 321, improving the strength of the overall structure, and providing structural support for extending the service life of the baffle structure 320.
[0163] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 5 As shown, the side end face of the first plate 332 facing away from the third plate 334 is the first arc-shaped surface 338.
[0164] Specifically, the structure of the first plate 332 is refined so that the side end face of the first plate 332 facing away from the third plate 334 is a first arc-shaped surface 338. The first arc-shaped surface 338 has the effect of removing burrs and flash, ensuring the safety requirements of the refrigeration equipment 10 during assembly, avoiding scratches on users, and avoiding scratches on other components inside the refrigeration equipment 10 during assembly.
[0165] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 5 As shown, the second plate 333 includes a first connecting section 339 and a second connecting section 340. The first connecting section 339 is located between the second connecting section 340 and the third plate 334. The first plate 332 and the first connecting section 339 both extend along the direction from the evaporator 200 to the baffle structure 320, and the second connecting section 340 extends obliquely from the first connecting section 339 toward the first plate 332.
[0166] Specifically, the second plate 333 includes a first connecting segment 339 and a second connecting segment 340, with the first connecting segment 339 located between the second connecting segment 340 and the third plate 334.
[0167] The first plate 332 extends along the direction from the evaporator 200 to the baffle structure 320, the first connecting section 339 extends along the same direction, and the second connecting section 340 extends obliquely from the first connecting section 339 toward the first plate 332. Alternatively, the second connecting section 340 extends obliquely inward, forming an inwardly angled connecting section. Therefore, the slot 323 forms a gradient structure at the second connecting section 340, which serves as a guide, allowing the shelf 312 to be inserted into the slot 323 more smoothly, thus improving assembly smoothness.
[0168] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 5 As shown, the side end face of the baffle 322 facing away from the connecting part 321 is the second arc-shaped surface 341.
[0169] Specifically, the structure of the baffle 322 is refined so that the side end face of the baffle 322 away from the connecting part 321 is a second arc-shaped surface 341. The second arc-shaped surface 341 has the effect of removing burrs and flash, ensuring the safety requirements of the refrigeration equipment 10 during assembly, avoiding scratches on users, and avoiding scratches on other components inside the refrigeration equipment 10 during assembly.
[0170] According to some embodiments of the present invention, along the circumference of the shelf 310, the baffle structure 320 is located on at least one side of the shelf 310.
[0171] Specifically, the arrangement of the baffle structure 320 is refined.
[0172] Along the circumference of the shelf 310, the baffle structure 320 is located on at least one side of the shelf 310. For example, along the circumference of the shelf 310, the baffle structure 320 is located on one side of the shelf 310. For example, along the circumference of the shelf 310, the baffle structure 320 is located on two adjacent sides of the shelf 310. For example, along the circumference of the shelf 310, the baffle structure 320 is located on three adjacent sides of the shelf 310.
[0173] That is, the position of the baffle structure 320 can be set in a targeted manner according to the arrangement of the evaporator 200 to ensure the effectiveness and reliability of the partition shelf 310 and the evaporator 200.
[0174] For example, the refrigeration equipment 10 includes refrigerators, freezers, refrigerated display cases, mobile cold storage, freezers, etc., which will not be listed here.
[0175] For example, the baffle structure 320 is an ABS (Acrylonitrile-butdiene-styrene) structure, or the baffle structure 320 is a HIPS (High impact polystyrene) structure.
[0176] For example, the baffle structure 320 of this application is an extruded baffle structure 320. The baffle structure 320 includes a connecting part 321 and a baffle 322. The connecting part is provided with a slot 323. The shelf 312 of the shelf 310 is engaged with the slot 323, and the shelf 312 and the slot 323 are interference-fitted. The baffle structure 320 is used to isolate food from the evaporator 200, solving the problem of food freezing due to excessive cold.
[0177] For example, the baffle structure 320 is manufactured by extrusion die and punching die, which has the advantages of low cost and fast forming.
[0178] For example, the shelf assembly 300 includes a shelf 310 and a baffle structure 320.
[0179] For example, the cross-section of the baffle structure 320 is "L" shaped.
[0180] For example, such as Figure 5 and Figure 9 As shown, the connecting part 321 is provided with a slot 323. On the cross-section of the baffle structure 320, the width of the slot opening 329 is d1, and the thickness of the shelf 312 is d, -0.5mm≤d1-d≤-0.2mm, which can make the baffle structure 320 and the shelf 312 firmly installed together and not easy to fall off.
[0181] For example, such as Figure 5As shown, in the cross-section of the baffle structure 320, the height of the baffle 322 is d2, and the value of d2 can be set according to the type of food being stored. For example, a larger d2 value is set for taller foods such as beer bottles, while a smaller d2 value is set for shorter foods such as cola cans.
[0182] For example, after the baffle structure 320 and the shelf 312 are assembled, the baffle 322 of the baffle structure 320 forms a barrier wall in the height direction of the equipment body 100, so that the inner wall of the refrigerator 110 opposite to the evaporator 200 maintains a certain distance from the food on the shelf 310, thereby solving the problem of food freezing and spoilage caused by excessively cold food.
