Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to refrigeration equipment, and more particularly to an anti-freeze device. [Background technology]

[0002] Various household and commercial refrigerators are widely used, each equipped with a refrigerator compartment and a freezer (compartment), which can store food, fruits, various seafood, fresh foods, frozen foods, beverages, etc. This can keep various refrigerated and frozen items fresh within their expiration dates and prevent them from spoiling in a room temperature environment. In the refrigerator compartment or freezer (compartment) of a refrigerator, items are usually stored stacked to preserve various items, so that the items at the bottom layer tend to stick to the bottom of the refrigerated or frozen space.

[0003] Various problems have arisen with the above-mentioned freezing equipment. Conventionally, items that need to be frozen are packaged in various forms, such as paper box packaging, plastic container packaging, or plastic bag packaging. When many items are stored in a freezer (room), the items placed at the bottom layer directly contact the bottom surface of the freezer (room) and are pressed by the weight of the items above. As a result, the items placed at the bottom layer often stick to the bottom surface of the freezer (room) and become stuck, making it difficult to remove. When trying to remove the items at the bottom layer, more force is required to separate them from the freezer (room), which often causes damage such as damage or cracking of the items, and even the bottom surface of the freezer (room) may be damaged, which may cause even greater damage.

[Figure 6] FIG. 2 is a perspective view of another embodiment of the present invention; [Figure 7] FIG. 4 is an exploded view of another embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0013] In order to achieve the above-mentioned objects and effects, the technical means adopted in the present invention, its structure, implementation method, etc. are described in detail below with reference to preferred embodiments of the present invention with accompanying drawings, so that the features and functions of the present invention can be clearly understood and fully understood. EXAMPLES

[0014] 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 are respectively a perspective view of the present invention, a perspective exploded view, a perspective view of a preferred embodiment, a side sectional view of the preferred embodiment, and a partially enlarged view of part A in Fig. 4. As can be seen clearly from the figures, the anti-freezing device of the refrigeration equipment of the present invention includes a base part 1 and an isolation part 2, and the detailed structure and connection relationship of the above parts are as follows:

[0015] The base 1 is provided with a positioning unit 11 for assembly and has a first thickness 1D.

[0016] The isolation portion 2 comprises a raised insole 21 extending outwardly from the base portion 1, the raised insole 21 having a second thickness 2D, which can be greater than the first thickness 1D of the base portion 1.

[0017] In the above-mentioned base 1 of the present invention, the positioning unit 11 is in the form of a screw, rivet, clamp, hook, etc., and the isolation part 2 is molded on the base 1 by a method such as integral molding, welding, screw connection, or riveting.

[0018] Furthermore, in the isolation part 2 of the present invention, the raised insole 21 is made of materials such as metal, cork, stone, etc., the raised insole 21 can have a rectangular, polygonal, triangular, circular, elliptical, or other geometric shape, one side of the raised insole 21 of the isolation part 2 is connected to the base 1, and the raised insole 21 can take the form of a hollow frame, at least two or more rods, or a wavy plate structure, etc. Furthermore, the raised insole 21 of the isolation part 2 can also take the form of at least two or more rods arranged on one side of the base 1 at equal intervals (e.g., comb-like or fishbone-like) or unequal intervals (e.g., dendritic).

[0019] As described above, in actual application and implementation, the anti-freezing device in the refrigeration equipment of the present invention can be assembled to the surface 302 of the entrance 301 of at least one or more storage spaces 30 of a specific freezer (room) 3 using at least one or more positioning units 11 of the base 1, and the at least one or more positioning units 11 can be respectively assembled and positioned to the surface 302 of the at least one or more entrances 301 using such forms as fastening with screws 111, driving in rivets, holding clamps, or holding hooks, and further the raised insoles 21 of the side isolation parts 2 of the at least one or more bases 1 extend to the bottom surface 31 inside the storage spaces 30 of the at least one or more freezers (rooms) 3.

[0020] This effectively prevents the bottom 41 of the predetermined item 4 from sticking or solidifying to the bottom surface 31 of the storage space 30, making it possible to easily place the predetermined item 4 in the storage space 30 and remove it from the storage space 30. Also, by preventing the bottom 41 of the predetermined item 4 from sticking or solidifying to the bottom surface 31 of the storage space 30, it is possible to prevent the predetermined item 4 from becoming difficult to remove and from being pulled too hard, which can cause breakage or damage to the predetermined item 4.

[0021] The main feature of the present invention is that a gap of a predetermined height 21H is formed between the at least one or more elevated insoles 21 and the bottom surface 31, so that when the at least one or more predetermined items 4 are placed in the at least one or more storage spaces 30, the bottoms 41 of the at least one or more predetermined items 4 overlap the elevated insoles 21 of the isolation portion 2. This forms a gap between the bottoms 41 of the predetermined items 4 and the bottom surface 31 of the storage space 30, and they do not come into contact with each other.

[0022] This specified freezer (room) 3 refers to various freezers (rooms) 3 that can be used for freezing and storing specified items 4, such as a general refrigerator, a general freezer, a commercial refrigerator, or a commercial freezer.

[0023] The above-mentioned specified item 4 refers to food, rice, vegetables, pickles, fruits, various seafood products, various fresh foods, frozen foods, seasonings, etc., packaged in paper boxes, plastic boxes, fresh-keeping boxes, glass bottles, or plastic bags, etc.

[0024] As shown in Figs. 1 to 7, in various embodiments of the anti-freezing device for freezing equipment of the present invention, the base 1 has an isolation part 2 extending outward from one side, and the isolation part 2 includes two parallel elevated insoles 21, three parallel elevated insoles 21, or a plurality of parallel or non-parallel elevated insoles 21. The number, shape, length, width, etc. of the elevated insoles 21 of the isolation part 2 extending from one side of the base 1 can be increased or decreased according to the capacity and shape of the storage space 30 of the specified freezer (room) 3. This allows the specified items 4 of any shape, size, and width to be stacked on each elevated insole 21 of the isolation part 2, and prevents the bottom 41 of the specified item 4 from directly contacting the bottom surface 31 of the storage space 30 and freezing or solidifying. This achieves the purpose of easily placing and removing the specified item 4 in and from the storage space 30 of the freezer (room) 3.

[0025] The above is merely an example of the present invention, and does not limit the scope of the patent of the present invention. Therefore, it is clearly understood that simple modifications and equivalent structural changes based on the contents of the description and drawings of the present invention are also included in the patent scope of the present invention. As described above, the anti-freeze device in the refrigeration equipment of this invention reliably achieves its effects and objectives in practical application, and therefore this invention is a highly practical creation and meets the requirements for applying for a new type patent, and therefore an application is filed in accordance with the law.
