[0023] Example:

[0024] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 4 As shown:

[0025] This utility model provides a solar-powered camping refrigerator, including a refrigerator body 1, a battery inside the refrigerator body 1, an opening 11 at the top of the refrigerator body 1, a photovoltaic bracket 2 installed at the front of the refrigerator body 1, a photovoltaic panel 21 installed at the top of the photovoltaic bracket 2, the photovoltaic panel 21 is installed on the photovoltaic bracket 2, and can efficiently absorb solar energy and convert light energy into electrical energy through angle adjustment.

[0026] A connecting shaft 22 is fixedly installed on the photovoltaic bracket 2. Adjusting plates 3 are fixedly installed on both sides of the front end of the refrigerator body 1. Each adjusting plate 3 has a groove 31 on its surface. A slider 4 is slidably installed in each groove 31. A connecting block 41 is fixedly installed on the outer end of each slider 4. A fixing rod 42 is fixedly installed on the inner end of each slider 4. Each fixing rod 42 is fixedly connected to the photovoltaic bracket 2. A fastening bolt 43 is screwed into each connecting block 41. Several equidistant circumferential grooves are formed on the outer surface of each adjusting plate 3. A locking hole 5 is adapted to the fastening bolt 43. The slider 4 can slide in the arc-shaped slide groove 31 of the adjusting plate 3. When it is necessary to adjust the angle of the photovoltaic panel 21 to adapt to the direction of light, the fastening bolt 43 on the connecting block 41 is loosened, so that the slider 4 slides along the arc-shaped slide groove 31. At the same time, the photovoltaic bracket 2 rotates around the connecting shaft 22, thereby driving the photovoltaic panel 21 to adjust to the optimal light angle. After the angle is determined, the fastening bolt 43 is screwed into the corresponding locking hole 5 of the adjusting plate 3 to fix the position of the slider 4, so as to keep the angle of the photovoltaic panel 21 stable and ensure efficient power generation.

[0027] Both ends of the connecting shaft 22 are rotatably connected to the adjusting plate 3, and each slide groove 31 is arc-shaped;

[0028] A sliding cover 12 is slidably installed at the retrieval port 11 for opening and closing the retrieval port 11;

[0029] A handle 13 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the rear end of the refrigerator body 1, and a wheel 14 is installed on the bottom of the refrigerator body 1. The handle 13 and the bottom wheel 14 facilitate movement and take into account the portability of the camping scene.

[0030] A clamping plate 7 for snapping onto the photovoltaic bracket 2 is fixedly installed at the front end of the refrigerator body 1, so as to achieve the initial positioning of the photovoltaic bracket 2;

[0031] The front end of the refrigerator body 1 has a wire hole 6. The wires are transmitted through the wire hole 6 to the battery inside the refrigerator body 1 for storage. The battery powers the refrigerator's refrigeration system, enabling refrigeration without external power supply in camping scenarios.

[0032] The working principle of this embodiment:

[0033] Step 1: The photovoltaic panel 21 is installed on the photovoltaic bracket 2. It can efficiently absorb solar energy through angle adjustment and convert light energy into electrical energy. The converted electrical energy is transmitted to the battery inside the refrigerator body 1 through the connecting wire in the wire hole 6 for storage. The battery powers the refrigerator's refrigeration system, enabling refrigeration without external power supply in camping scenarios. The photovoltaic bracket 2 is rotatably connected to the adjustment plate 3 at the front of the refrigerator body 1 through the connecting shaft 22. At the same time, the photovoltaic bracket 2 is connected to the slider 4 through the fixing rod 42. The slider 4 can slide in the arc-shaped slide groove 31 of the adjustment plate 3. When it is necessary to adjust the angle of the photovoltaic panel 21 to adapt to the direction of light, the fastening bolt 43 on the connecting block 41 is loosened, so that the slider 4 slides along the arc-shaped slide groove 31. At the same time, the photovoltaic bracket 2 rotates around the connecting shaft 22, thereby driving the photovoltaic panel 21 to adjust to the optimal light angle. After the angle is determined, the fastening bolt 43 is screwed into the corresponding locking hole 5 of the adjustment plate 3 to fix the position of the slider 4, thus keeping the angle of the photovoltaic panel 21 stable and ensuring efficient power generation.

[0034] Step 2: When the refrigerator is not in use, the photovoltaic panel 21 can be stored in a position parallel to the front end of the refrigerator body 1. Loosen the fastening bolt 43 and release the slider 4. By rotating the connecting shaft 22 and sliding the slider 4 in the arc-shaped groove 31, rotate the photovoltaic bracket 2 towards the front end of the refrigerator body 1, so that the photovoltaic panel 21 gradually moves closer to the front end of the refrigerator body 1. When the photovoltaic panel 21 is completely parallel to the front end of the refrigerator body 1, the photovoltaic bracket 2 will be inserted into the card plate 7 at the front end of the refrigerator body 1, achieving initial positioning. Finally, tighten the fastening bolt 43 to fix the slider 4 in the corresponding lock hole 5, completing the storage and saving space. The sliding cover 12 of the refrigerator body 1 is used to open and close the access port 11, and the handle 13 and the bottom wheels 14 facilitate movement, taking into account the portability of the camping scene.

[0035] The embodiments of this utility model are given for illustrative and descriptive purposes only, and are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the utility model to the forms disclosed. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The embodiments were chosen and described in order to better illustrate the principles and practical applications of this utility model, and to enable those skilled in the art to understand this utility model and design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for a particular purpose.
