[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 12 This utility model provides a drainage component 1, including a track 10 and a drainage plate 20. Two tracks 10 are spaced apart along a first direction D1. The drainage plate 20 includes a rotating shaft 21, a plate body 22, and a sliding portion 23. The rotating shaft 21 extends along the first direction D1; the plate body 22 is made of a soft material, one end of which is wound and fixed to the rotating shaft 21 and can be rolled up or unrolled as the rotating shaft 21 rotates; the sliding portion 23 is located at the end of the plate body 22 away from the rotating shaft 21, and is slidably connected to the track 10, driving the plate body 22 to move relative to the rotating shaft 21. The central axis of the rotating shaft 21 is parallel to the first direction D1.

[0027] In this design, by setting the tracks 10 at intervals along the first direction D1, a stable sliding path is provided, ensuring that the diversion plate 20 does not deviate when moving, thus enhancing the overall structural stability and pointing accuracy. The use of a plate body 22 made of soft material and a rotating shaft 21 allows the plate body 22 to be rolled up or unrolled, facilitating the removal of the diversion plate 20 to clear the area behind it. The plate body 22, made of soft material, has good flexibility and impact resistance, reducing damage caused by cargo impact. In this design, by setting the shape of the tracks 10 and adjusting the position and angle of the diversion plate 20, close contact with the floor 5 or support block 6 is ensured, improving the diversion effect.

[0028] As described above, the sliding part 23 is slidably connected to the track 10. The cooperation between the sliding part 23 and the track 10 can be, but is not limited to, groove-slider cooperation or external sleeve cooperation.

[0029] In the embodiment of the groove-slider cooperation, the track 10 is provided with an inwardly recessed groove 11, and at least a portion of the structure of the sliding part 23 is slidably accommodated within the groove 11. The sliding part 23 includes sliders disposed on both sides of the end of the plate body 22, and the sliders are slidably connected to the groove 11.

[0030] Optionally, the slider of the sliding part 23 is a raised structure adapted to the shape of the groove, and its cross-sectional shape can be one of a circle, square, ellipse, trapezoid, or rhombus. The groove 11 is a structure adapted to the slider. Optionally, the slider can also be set as a pulley 25 structure to replace sliding friction with rolling friction, making the movement more effortless and smooth.

[0031] In this embodiment, the sliding part 23 and the track 10, which cooperate with the groove slider, can effectively prevent the slider from disengaging from the side. The track 10 precisely constrains the movement trajectory of the sliding part 23 and has strong guiding properties.

[0032] In the embodiment of external fitting, the sliding part 23 is provided with an inwardly recessed groove, which is directly fitted onto the outside of the track 10 for sliding.

[0033] Optionally, the cross-sectional shape of the track 10 is one of the following: circular, square, elliptical, trapezoidal, rhomboid, I-shaped, or T-shaped. The slot is a structure adapted to the track 10.

[0034] In this embodiment, the sliding part 23 is fitted onto the outside of the track 10, making the track 10 simple in structure and easy to process and manufacture. The sliding part 23 can be directly engaged with the track 10 from the side, without needing to be inserted from the end of the track 10.

[0035] Optionally, in the unfolded state of the plate body 22, at least a portion of the plate body 22 is constructed as a curved surface.

[0036] In some embodiments, the track 10 is configured with a preset arc-shaped structure. When the sliding part 23 moves, the trajectory of the sliding rod 24 is an arc shape that adapts to the track 10. Since the edge of the plate body 22 is fixed to the sliding rod 24, the entire plate body 22 is tensioned and naturally pulled into a curved surface that matches the curvature of the track 10.

[0037] In other embodiments, the track 10 may be vertical or slightly curved. After the plate body 22 is extended from the rotation axis 21, its lower end (free end) is pulled a distance away from the rotation axis 21 by the sliding part 23. At the same time, the middle part of the plate body 22 is restricted by a preset auxiliary support point or guide, so that the flexible plate body 22 is forced to bend into a curved surface.

[0038] Based on the above embodiment, the sliding part 23 further includes a sliding rod 24. The central axis of the sliding rod 24 is parallel to the first direction D1. The sliding rod 24 is fixedly connected to the end of the plate body 22 away from the rotation axis 21, and sliders are disposed at both ends of the sliding rod 24. Optionally, the sliding rod 24 is parallel to the rotation axis 21 and spaced apart. The free end of the plate body 22 wraps around the outer periphery of the sliding rod 24, and then the plate body 22 is fixed to the sliding rod 24 by means of adhesion or the like. The sliding rod 24 avoids the tension from acting directly on the soft plate body 22 itself, preventing tearing and damage at the end of the plate body 22, significantly improving the durability of the component, and ensuring that the plate body 22 is subjected to uniform force in all parts during the winding or unfolding process. By fixing two sliders to both ends of the sliding rod 24 respectively, the sliding rod 24 and the plate body 22 are integrated as a whole, guided and supported on the track 10 by the sliders at both ends. When an external force is applied to the sliding rod 24 (or transmitted through the slider), the sliding rod 24 drives the free end of the entire plate body 22 to move synchronously and smoothly, thereby achieving winding or unwinding.

[0039] Reference Figures 6 to 13 This utility model also provides a refrigerated container 2. The refrigerated container 2 includes a container body 3. A refrigeration unit 4 is fixedly installed at the front end of the container body 3 along the length direction DL. Its structure extends along the height direction DH and the width direction DW. The internal circulation core consists of an evaporator and a fan, and an air outlet is provided at the bottom of the unit. A diversion component 1 is installed below the refrigeration unit 4, also extending along the height direction DH and the width direction DW. The upper end of this component (i.e., the end with the rotating shaft 21) is tightly connected to the periphery of the air outlet of the refrigeration unit 4, ensuring that all the air is drawn into the air duct formed by the diversion plate 20. With the guidance of the diversion component 1, the airflow is introduced into the floor 5 channel and transported to the rear along the length direction DL of the container 2 and to the upper part along the height direction DH of the container 2, finally completing the circulation through the return air vent at the top of the refrigeration unit 4. The first direction D1 is parallel to the width direction DW.

[0040] In this solution, by means of the retractable and slidable drainage component 1, when it is necessary to clean up the debris, crumbs or frost accumulated behind the drainage plate 20, the operator only needs to push the sliding part 23 upward or roll up the plate body 22 to completely expose the entire obstructed area for unobstructed and thorough cleaning.

[0041] In some embodiments, the lower end of the drainage assembly 1 directly abuts against the floor 5 of the housing 3. By operating the sliding part 23, the lower end of the drainage plate 20 is moved downward until the drainage plate 20 directly contacts the surface of the floor 5 of the housing 3.

[0042] In other embodiments, the lower end of the drainage assembly 1 is spaced apart by support blocks 6. One or more support blocks 6 are pre-fixed on the floor 5 of the housing 3, corresponding to the position of the lower end of the drainage plate 20. The sliding rod 24 at the lower end of the drainage plate 20 is moved and placed or engaged on the upper surface of the support block 6. At this time, the lower end of the drainage assembly 1 is spaced apart from the floor 5 by the support blocks 6, leaving a gap between them.

[0043] Optionally, the airflow can flow along the upper surface of the panel body 22, and the outlet end (i.e. the sliding rod end) of the panel body 22 extends to below the inlet end of the floor 5 groove. The airflow flows to the rear of the container 2 under the guidance of the guide plate 20 and the floor 5 groove.

[0044] Alternatively, the airflow can also flow along the lower end face of the plate body 22, extending from the outlet end (i.e., the sliding rod end) of the plate body 22 to above the inlet end of the floor 5 groove, and the airflow flows towards the rear of the container 2 under the guidance of the guide plate 20 and the floor 5 groove.

[0045] Based on the above embodiments, multiple drainage components 1 are arranged at intervals.

[0046] Optionally, multiple airflow guiding components 1 are arranged laterally side-by-side with spacing. These components are positioned below the refrigeration unit 4, arranged in a line along the width direction DW of the air outlet. The rotation axes 21 of all airflow guiding components 1 are located on the same lateral axis, and their tracks 10 are parallel to each other. The sides of the plate bodies 22 of adjacent airflow guiding components 1 can be closely adjacent or contacted through sealing strips to minimize gap leakage. In this design, the sag of the wide plate in the middle is avoided, improving the lateral stiffness and overall morphological stability of each plate body 22.

[0047] Optionally, multiple airflow guiding components 1 are arranged longitudinally in multiple layers at intervals. By arranging them in multiple layers front and back, a more stable and directional airflow channel is formed, achieving graded guidance of airflow.

The terminology used herein is for descriptive purposes only and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Terms such as “set” appearing herein can refer to either a component being directly attached to another component or a component being attached to another component via an intermediary. A feature described in one embodiment may be applied, alone or in combination with other features, to another embodiment, unless that feature is not applicable in that other embodiment or is otherwise stated.
