Technical Field

[0003] The present application relates to the field of refrigeration technology, and in particular to a door assembly of an embedded refrigeration device and an embedded refrigeration device. Background Art

[0004] In today's society, rapid technological advancements have significantly driven changes in home lifestyles. Built-in furniture, a design concept that combines aesthetics with practicality, has gained widespread popularity among consumers. By cleverly integrating appliances or storage spaces into the home, built-in furniture not only effectively saves space but also significantly enhances the overall harmony and aesthetics of the home. For example, a built-in refrigerator allows it to be seamlessly integrated into the cabinetry, blending seamlessly with the kitchen decor and creating a modern and harmonious living environment. However, despite their significant advantages in enhancing home aesthetics and space utilization, built-in refrigerators still present a significant practical issue: the door can easily interfere with or collide with the cabinet sidewalls when opened, resulting in a poor user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present application proposes a door assembly for refrigeration equipment, which can solve the problems of interference and collision of door assemblies and improve user experience.

[0006] The present application also proposes an embedded refrigeration device.

[0007] The door assembly of the embedded refrigeration device according to an embodiment of the present application includes:

[0008] The door is rotatably connected to the refrigeration box, wherein the refrigeration box is used to be embedded in the accommodation space formed by the mounting body;

[0009] a door panel movably mounted on the door, the door panel being movable along the width direction of the door, and being adapted to move toward the door opening side when the door is opened;

[0010] The door panel has a first interference position and a second interference position, the first interference position is located at the inner corner of the door opening side of the door panel, and the second interference position is located at the outer corner of the hinge side of the door panel;

[0011] Before the second interference position leaves the accommodation space, a gap between the second interference position and the accommodation space and a corresponding side wall thereof is no greater than a first set value.

[0012] According to the door body assembly of the embedded refrigeration device in the embodiment of the present application, before the second interference position leaves the accommodation space, there is a possibility of interference between the second interference position and the side wall of the accommodation space. In the embodiment of the present application, on the basis of ensuring that the second interference position and the side wall of the accommodation space do not interfere, it is ensured that the gap between the second interference position and the side wall is not greater than the first set value, thereby preventing the door panel from moving too much, and ensuring that the sliding of the door panel gradually changes with the increase of the door opening angle, rather than the door panel directly moving into position in one step when the movement range required for a certain door opening angle is itself small, thereby improving the stability of the door body assembly, reducing the user's panic about the large movement of the door panel, and improving the user experience. In particular, after the first interference position of the door panel leaves the accommodation space, the door panel is closer to the user, and in this process, it is ensured that the distance between the second interference position and the side wall of the accommodation space is not too large, which can improve the user experience.

[0013] In one embodiment, after the second interference position leaves the accommodation space, a gap between the second interference position and the panel of the installation body is no greater than a second set value.

[0014] In one embodiment, corresponding to each set angle, the change value of the moving distance Δs does not exceed the set displacement.

[0015] In one embodiment, before the first interference position leaves the accommodation space, the set angle is 0.5°, and after the first interference position leaves the accommodation space, the set angle is 1°.

[0016] In one embodiment, when the box door is closed, the distance between the end face of the door panel on the opening side and the side wall corresponding to the accommodating space is δ1, and the distance between the end face of the hinge side of the door panel and the side wall corresponding to the accommodating space is δ2; before the first interference position leaves the accommodating space, the vertical movement distance γ of the first interference position along the width direction of the accommodating space is less than δ1, and the movement distance λ of the second interference position toward the accommodating space and the side wall corresponding to it is less than δ2.

[0017] In one embodiment, the spacing δ1 = spacing δ2.

[0018] In one embodiment, δ1 is defined as the value of the spacing δ2.

[0019] In one embodiment, δ1≥γ=a×cosα-l2;

[0020] in, δ2≥λ=b*cosβ-l3;

[0021] in,

[0022] Δθ is the opening angle of the door body assembly, Δs is the distance the door panel moves relative to the door opening side during the door opening process, l1 is the vertical distance from the hinge axis of the door to the inner surface of the door panel, l2 is the vertical distance from the hinge axis of the door to the end face of the door opening side of the door panel, l3 is the vertical distance from the hinge axis of the door to the end face of the hinge side of the door panel, h is the thickness of the door panel, Δs is the distance the door panel moves relative to the door during the door opening process, a is the length of the side where the hinge axis of the door is located between the first interference position and the hinge axis of the door, α is the angle between the first interference position and the side where the hinge axis of the door is located and the horizontal line, b is the length of the side where the hinge axis of the door is located between the second interference position and the side where the hinge axis of the door is located, and β is the angle between the second interference position and the side where the hinge axis of the door is located and the horizontal line.

[0023] In one embodiment, the door is connected to the refrigeration box body via a double-axis hinge, or the hinge axis is a movable axis.

[0024] An embedded refrigeration device according to an embodiment of the present application includes:

[0025] A refrigeration box body, adapted to be embedded in the accommodation space;

[0026] The above-mentioned double-door assembly.

[0092] In today's society, rapid technological advancements have significantly driven changes in home lifestyles. Built-in furniture, a design concept that combines aesthetics with practicality, has gained widespread popularity among consumers. By cleverly integrating appliances or storage spaces into the home, built-in furniture not only effectively saves space but also significantly enhances the overall harmony and aesthetics of the home. For example, a built-in refrigerator allows it to be seamlessly integrated into the cabinetry, blending seamlessly with the kitchen decor and creating a modern and harmonious living environment. However, despite their significant advantages in enhancing home aesthetics and space utilization, built-in refrigerators still present a significant practical issue: the door can easily interfere with or collide with the cabinet sidewalls when opened, resulting in a poor user experience.

[0093] Specifically, when a built-in refrigerator (hereinafter referred to as refrigerator) satisfies the user's two different refrigerator usage requirements of pure flat full embedded and fully embedded, the refrigerator door body (hereinafter referred to as door) will be connected to the cabinet door panel (hereinafter referred to as door panel), resulting in the entire door body assembly being thickened. As a result, after the refrigerator is pushed into the storage space of the cabinet, the door body assembly with the cabinet door will interfere with the cabinet during the process of opening and closing the door, relying only on the refrigerator's original single-axis or double-axis structural hinges, resulting in the inability to open and use normally. Therefore, in conjunction with Figure 1, the present application proposes a door body assembly that can enable relative sliding between the cabinet door and the door panel, so that in the process of opening the door body assembly, the door panel can slide toward the side of the door opening (that is, the door opening side), so that in the process of opening the door, the hinge 10 side still maintains the thickness of the cabinet door 2 itself, which is consistent with the door opening scene without the door panel 21; in the process of closing the door, the door panel 21 will move toward the hinge 10 side to return to the state before the door is opened; thereby achieving the embedded installation requirements of the refrigerator with or without the door panel 21.

[0094] Among them, if the door panel 21 moves too much relative to the box door 2, it will not only fail to prevent interference, but also increase the usage space, causing users to panic and worry that the door panel 21 will fall off, and its noise will also cause trouble to users, thereby reducing user experience.

[0095] Based on this, the present application further proposes a door assembly for an embedded refrigeration device, see Figures 1 and 2, comprising: a door 2 and a door panel 21. The door 2 can be rotatably connected to the refrigeration body 1, wherein the refrigeration body 1 is used to be embedded in the accommodation space formed by the mounting body. The refrigeration body 1 is used to be embedded in the accommodation space formed by the mounting body. The mounting body here generally refers to the cabinet 60. Of course, the mounting body can also be a wall corner, or the mounting body can also refer to other components, as long as a accommodation space can be formed. The following description will take the mounting body as the cabinet 60 as an example. The door panel 21 is movably mounted on the door 2. The door panel 21 can move along the width direction of the door 2. During the opening process of the door 2, the door panel 21 is suitable for moving toward the door opening side of the door 2, and the movement distance is Δs. The door panel 21 has a first interference position c and a second interference position d. The first interference position is located at the inner corner of the door opening side of the door panel 21, and the second interference position is located at the outer corner of the hinge 10 side of the door panel 21. Among them, the first interference position is the position on the door opening side where interference is most likely to occur, and the second interference position is the position on the hinge side of the door panel where interference is most likely to occur, and the positions of the first interference position and the second interference position on the door panel 21 are determined. In addition, the above "inside" and "outside" are relative to the refrigeration cabinet 1, the side facing the refrigeration cabinet 1 is the "inside" side, and the side facing away from the refrigeration cabinet 1 is the "outside" side. Since Figure 2 is a top view, the first interference position and the second interference position are a point when viewed from Figure 2. For the door body assembly, the first interference position and the second interference position are a vertical line. Among them, if the inner corner of the door opening side is arc-shaped, the first interference position at this time is the point on the arc segment farthest from the hinge axis 101 of the door 2. Similarly, if the outer corner of the hinge 10 side of the door panel 21 is arc-shaped, the second interference position at this time is the point on the arc segment farthest from the hinge axis 101 of the door 2.

[0096] According to an embodiment of the present application, in conjunction with Figures 2 and 3 , before the second interference position leaves the accommodation space, the gap Z between the second interference position and the corresponding sidewall of the accommodation space is no greater than a first set value. Before the second interference position leaves the accommodation space, there is a possibility of interference between the second interference position and the sidewall of the accommodation space. In this embodiment of the present application, while ensuring that the second interference position and the sidewall of the accommodation space do not interfere, the gap between the second interference position and the sidewall is ensured to be no greater than the first set value. This prevents excessive movement of the door panel 21, ensuring that the sliding of the door panel 21 gradually changes with the increase in the door opening angle, rather than the door panel 21 moving directly into position when the movement required for a certain door opening angle is inherently small. This improves the stability of the door assembly, reduces user anxiety about the door panel 21 moving significantly, and enhances the user experience. In particular, after the first interference position of the door panel 21 leaves the accommodation space, the door panel 21 is closer to the user, thereby ensuring that the distance between the second interference position and the sidewall of the accommodation space is not too large, thereby improving the user experience. The first set value and the second set value are not restricted; they only need to be small to ensure that the door panel is not too far from the mounting body. For example, the first set value and the second set value may both be between 0 mm and 15 mm.

[0097] According to an embodiment of the present application, as the opening angle of the door body assembly gradually increases, the second interference position may eventually leave the accommodation space. After the second interference position leaves the accommodation space, the second interference position gradually moves toward the outer surface of the second cabinet panel 602, and then the second interference position may eventually interfere with the outer surface of the second cabinet panel 602. In an embodiment of the present application, in conjunction with Figures 1 to 3, after the second interference position leaves the accommodation space, the gap δ between the second interference position and the panel of the mounting body is not greater than the second set value, so as to further ensure the structural stability of the door body assembly and avoid the user from panicking about the door panel 21 falling off.

[0098] According to the embodiments of the present application, in order to ensure that the door panel 21 does not move, there are multiple movement schemes for the door panel 21, including the situation where the door panel 21 moves too far at certain door opening angles, but does not move at other door opening angles. In the embodiments of the present application, corresponding to each of Figures 2 and 3, the change in the movement distance Δs does not exceed the set displacement, thereby ensuring that the movement of the door panel 21 is relatively hidden and not easy to be noticed, avoiding the user's intuitive feeling of the movement of the door panel 21. In addition, since the displacement of the door panel 21 at each set angle does not exceed the set displacement, it can avoid the bumps that may be caused by the sudden large movement of the door panel 21, ensuring the safety of the user.

[0099] According to an embodiment of the present application, the smaller the above-mentioned set angle is, the more precise the control of the door panel 21 during the door opening process of the door body assembly is. Through the small-angle door opening control, the movement distance of the door panel 21 corresponding to each door opening angle is obtained, and the optimal door body assembly structure is obtained. For example, before the first interference position leaves the accommodating space, the set angle is 0.5°. Of course, before the first interference position leaves the accommodating space, the set angle may also be other values. In addition, after the first interference position leaves the accommodating space, the set angle is 1°. Similarly, after the first interference position leaves the accommodating space, the set angle may also be other values. Among them, after the first interference position leaves the accommodating space, the set angle may be greater than the set angle before the first interference position leaves the accommodating space, and thus for the stage before the first interference position leaves the accommodating space where interference is more likely to occur, more precise control of the door body assembly can be achieved. Of course, after the first interference position leaves the accommodating space, the set angle may also be equal to the set angle before the first interference position leaves the accommodating space.

[0100] According to an embodiment of the present application, the angle θ at which the first interference position of the door panel 21 leaves the accommodation space is calculated. A small-angle calculation is performed within the angular range of a door opening angle of zero degrees to an angle θ. The movement distance of the door panel 21 is calculated every 0.5°, and it is determined whether the width-wise component of the movement distance exceeds the initial gaps δ1 and δ2 corresponding to the first and second cabinet panels 601 and 602, respectively. Subsequently, within the door opening angle range of θ to 90°, the small-angle calculation is performed again, for example, the movement distance is calculated every 1°. At this time, the movement distance must not only meet the requirement of not exceeding the initial gap δ2, but also cannot be too large. From 0° to 90°, a moving distance can be updated every 0.5°. If the moving distance simulated by the model (the model of the sliding mechanism between the door panel 21 and the box door 2, the sliding mechanism is to connect the door panel 21 and the box door 2, so that the door panel 21 moves relative to the box door 2 under the action of the sliding mechanism, and the sliding mechanism will be introduced later) can meet the above requirements for subsequent door opening, the parameters can be solidified. If the moving distance range at one of the angles is too large, the current model needs to be updated, and then the moving distance at each door opening angle is recalculated based on the new model. Only when the sliding distances at all angles meet the requirements can the sliding mechanism be designed based on the current model.

[0101] According to the embodiments of the present application, as long as the optimal moving distance at each door opening angle is gradually found according to small angles so as to control the displacement without interference or waste of displacement, the data acquisition method is not limited and is within the scope of protection of this patent.

[0102] According to an embodiment of the present application, the door opening angle of the door body assembly is positively correlated with the sliding distance ΔS of the door panel 21, and the change value of the sliding distance ΔS of the door panel 21 at each set angle interval is within a set range. Since the change value of the sliding distance ΔS of the door panel 21 at each set angle interval is within a set range, it can be ensured that the sliding distance of the door panel 21 is as uniform or close to uniform as possible during the entire door opening process, or even if the sliding distance cannot be uniform, there will be no obvious sudden change, so as to ensure that the sliding of the door panel 21 is as secretive as possible and not easy to be discovered, reduce the noise of the door panel 21, and improve the user experience. And because the movement of the door panel 21 is relatively smooth, interference can be avoided. Moreover, since the change value of the sliding distance ΔS of the door panel 21 at each set angle interval is within a set range, space can be saved and the minimum required sliding distance can be found.

[0103] According to an embodiment of the present application, the setting angle is 0.5°, and the setting range is 0.193 mm to 0.45 mm. At this time, a small angle analysis is performed on the door opening angle of the door 2 component. Since the sliding distance ΔS must meet the setting conditions every 0.5°, that is, the change value of the sliding distance ΔS is between 0.193 mm and 0.45 mm, the requirements for the sliding mechanism are relatively strict, and this corresponding sliding mechanism can maximize the user experience. Alternatively, the door opening angle can also be divided. Before the door opening side of the door panel 21 leaves the accommodating space, the setting angle can be 0.5° to ensure that the door panel 21 does not interfere with the side walls of the accommodating space, including the first cabinet panel 601 and the second cabinet panel 602. After the door opening side of the door panel 21 leaves the accommodating space, the setting angle can be larger than the setting angle before leaving, for example, it can be 1°, so that more sliding mechanisms that meet the requirements can be obtained.

[0104] In one embodiment, the relationship between the sliding distance ΔS and the door opening (i.e., the door opening angle) is as follows:

[0105] Table 1

[0106] In another embodiment, when other parameters remain unchanged or are slightly adjusted, the relationship between the sliding distance ΔS and the door opening (i.e., the door opening angle) is as follows:

[0107] Table 2

[0108] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the units of relevant distance parameters are all millimeters.

[0109] According to Table 1, when the door body assembly opens at an angle of 0.5°, the sliding distance is 0.37 mm to 0.47 mm. In addition, when the door body assembly opens at an angle of 90°, the sliding distance is 62.95 mm to 63.04 mm.

[0110] In conjunction with Table 1 and Figure 37, the traction mechanism includes a traction rod, which is hinged to the sliding mechanism through a first pin shaft, and is hinged to the box body through a second pin shaft. The distance between the second pin shaft and the end face of the hinge side of the box door 2 is L1, the distance between the hinge axis of the box door 2 and the end face of the hinge side of the box door 2 is L2, the distance between the second pin shaft and the hinge axis of the box door 2 is L3, the distance between the first pin shaft and the hinge axis of the box door 2 in the thickness direction of the box door 2 is L4, and the distance between the first pin shaft and the second pin shaft is L1. The straight-line distance of the pin shaft is L5, the angle between the straight line corresponding to L5 and the straight line corresponding to L3 is θ1, the angle between the straight line corresponding to L5 and the width direction of the accommodating space is θ2, L1 is 30mm-40mm, L2 is 7mm-15mm, L3 is 40-55mm, L4 is 10mm-20mm, L5 is 0.2mm-0.4mm, θ1 is 20° to 105.68°, and θ2 is 15°-18°. In one embodiment, referring to Table 1, L1 is 36.29 mm, L2 is 10.81 mm, L3 is 47.85 mm, L4 is 16.89, L5 is 0.288 mm, θ1 is 20° to 105.68°, and θ2 is 16.5°. In addition, the above values ​​are mainly combined with product requirements and can float appropriately. For example, taking L2 as an example, it is between 7 mm and 15 mm, which can meet the installation requirements while ensuring structural strength.

[0111] Through the above data, the following relationship can be fitted: ΔS=L1+L5*coΔSθ2-L2-

[0112] The fitting relationship is based on the sliding mechanism of double slide rails and double sliders provided in the subsequent embodiment.

[0113] According to the embodiments of the present application, the sliding mechanism and the traction mechanism function to enable the door panel 21 to move relative to the door 2. Obviously, the specific structural forms of both are not limited. For example, the sliding mechanism can adopt the double-slider structure described below, or a connecting rod structure, or a gear rack structure. Correspondingly, the traction mechanism can adopt a traction rod structure, or can be directly driven by a pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder, etc.

[0114] In conjunction with Figures 2 and 3, when the door 2 is closed, the distance between the end face of the door panel 21 on the door opening side and the corresponding side wall of the accommodating space is δ1, and the distance between the end face of the door panel 21 on the hinge side and the corresponding side wall of the accommodating space is δ2. δ1 is greater than the movement distance γ along the width direction of the accommodating space before the first interference position leaves the accommodating space, and γ is also the vertical distance that the first interference position moves toward the side wall of the corresponding accommodating space. δ2 is greater than the movement distance λ along the width direction of the accommodating space before the second interference position leaves the accommodating space, and λ is also the vertical distance that the second interference position moves toward the side wall of the corresponding accommodating space. When the door 2 is in the closed position, the width direction of the door 2 is consistent with the width direction of the accommodating space. As the door 2 is opened, there is an angle between the width direction of the door 2 and the width direction of the accommodating space.

[0115] According to the embodiments of the present application, the conditions that need to be met for no interference to occur at the first interference position and the conditions that need to be met for no interference to occur at the second interference position are determined, thereby determining the rules that need to be met between the initial gaps (δ1 and δ2) on both sides of the door body assembly and the movement of the door panel 21 to ensure the normal use of the embedded refrigeration equipment.

[0116] Based on the above, and provided that the door assembly does not interfere with each other, and to ensure the aesthetics and safety of the embedded refrigeration unit, as previously mentioned, the initial gaps δ1 and δ2 on either side of the door panel 21 generally do not exceed 5 mm. Therefore, based on the determination of the initial gaps δ1 and δ2, and provided that the aforementioned clearance between the second interference position and the corresponding sidewall of the accommodation space does not exceed the first set value, or the clearance between the second interference position and the outer surface of the mounting body does not exceed the second set value, the corresponding movement distance Δs can be obtained to meet the requirements.

[0117] 2 and 3 , the hinge axis 101 of the door 2 corresponds to point o in the figure, l1 is the vertical distance from the hinge axis 101 of the door 2 to the inner surface of the door panel 21, l2 is the vertical distance from the hinge axis 101 of the door 2 to the end face of the door opening side of the door panel 21, l3 is the vertical distance from the hinge axis 101 of the door 2 to the end face of the hinge side of the door panel 21, h is the thickness of the door panel 21, and Δs is the distance that the door panel 21 moves relative to the door 2 during the opening process of the door 2.

[0118] In Figures 2 and 3, the position relationship and angular relationship of the refrigeration equipment (refrigerator) when the door is initially closed and when the door 2 is opened to any angle (indicated by the dotted lines in the figures) are simplified and annotated. The corners where interference may occur during the door opening process are marked with black dots in the figures. Among them, the first interference position c is likely to interfere with the point e on the right side of the first cabinet panel 601. That is, point e is the critical point at which point c escapes interference (leaves the accommodation space) during the door opening and closing process. The second interference position d is the corner point on the right side of the door panel 21. It is the corner point where the right end face of the door panel 21 first interferes with the left end face of the second cabinet panel 602 adjacent to the right during the door opening and closing process. As can be seen from the figure, in the initial position, on the left side of the hinge axis 101, the angle between the hypotenuse oc between point c and the hinge axis 101 (point o) and the inner side of the door panel is θ0, and the angle when the door 2 is opened to any position is Δθ. At this position, the hypotenuse oc, the distance l2 and the distance l1 are represented by dotted lines; in the initial position, on the right side of the hinge axis 101, the hypotenuse between point d and the hinge axis 101 is od. When the door 2 is opened to any position with an angle of Δθ, the hypotenuse od, the distance l1+h and the distance l3 are represented by dotted lines; as can be seen from the figure, during the opening process of the door 2, if the door panel does not move along the door 2 toward the door opening side, as the opening angle increases, point d will soon interfere with the left end face of the second cabinet panel 602, causing the door 2 to be unable to open. Therefore, in order to avoid interference affecting the door opening, it is necessary to move the corresponding door panel 21 toward the door opening side by a distance Δs when the door body opening angle is Δθ during the door opening process.

[0119] According to the embodiments of the present application, it can be understood that the larger l1, l3, and h are, the easier it is for the door panel 21 to interfere at this time, and thus, l1, l3, h, and δ1 are positively correlated. In addition, δ1 is positively correlated with the maximum Δs before the first interference position leaves the accommodating space, that is, before the first interference position leaves the accommodating space, the larger the distance Δs that the door panel 21 moves relative to the box door 2 is, the larger δ1 is at this time, so as to prevent the door panel 21 from colliding with the first cabinet panel 601 during movement. The larger Δs is before the first interference position leaves the accommodating space, the less likely the hinge side of the door panel 21 is to interfere at this time, that is, the smaller δ2 can be designed at this time, that is, Δs and δ2 are negatively correlated before the first interference position leaves the accommodating space.

[0120] According to an embodiment of the present application, assuming that the door panel 21 moves a distance Δs, the length of the side where point c and the hinge axis 101 (that is, point o) are located is set to a, and the angle between it and the horizontal line in the figure is set to α. At this time, the length of the side where point d and the hinge axis 101 (that is, point o) are located is set to b, and the angle between it and the horizontal line in the figure is set to β.

[0121] In one embodiment, δ1≥γ=a×cosα−l2.

[0122] in,

[0123] Δθ is the opening angle of the door body assembly, Δs is the distance the door panel moves relative to the door opening side during the door opening process, l1 is the vertical distance from the hinge axis of the door to the inner surface of the door panel, l2 is the vertical distance from the hinge axis of the door to the end face of the door opening side of the door panel, l3 is the vertical distance from the hinge axis of the door to the end face of the hinge side of the door panel, h is the thickness of the door panel, Δs is the distance the door panel moves relative to the door during the door opening process, a is the length of the side where the hinge axis of the door is located at the first interference position, α is the angle between the side where the hinge axis of the door is located at the first interference position and the horizontal line, b is the length of the side where the hinge axis of the door is located at the second interference position, and β is the angle between the side where the hinge axis of the door is located at the second interference position and the horizontal line

[0124] As mentioned above, Δθ is the angle of rotation of the door 2 during the opening process, and Δs is the distance that the door panel 21 moves relative to the door opening side of the door 2 during the opening process.

[0125] Therefore, when l1, l2 and δ1 are determined, the value range of the moving distance Δs corresponding to each door opening angle Δθ can be obtained.

[0126] In one embodiment, δ2≥λ=b*cosβ-l3.

[0127] in,

[0128] Therefore, when l1, l3, h, and δ2 are determined, the range of Δs corresponding to each door opening angle Δθ can be calculated. When δ1 and δ2 are equal, that is, the initial gaps on both sides of the door panel 21 are equal, the range of Δs can be further clarified.

[0129] The above formula for calculating Δs when δ1 and δ2 are determined does not constitute a restriction on Δs. For example, the above calculation formula can also have a correction coefficient or correction parameter. In addition, the above calculation formula is for the case where the hinge axis 101 is determined. If the door 2 is installed with a biaxial hinge or a movable hinge, the hinge axis 101 will change as the door 2 is opened, and the calculation formula of Δs will also change adaptively. The formula needs to calculate the movement distance of the hinge axis 101. In addition, if there is an installation gap between the door panel 21 and the door 2, then h in the above calculation formula is the distance between the sliding surface of the door panel 21 and the outer surface of the door panel 21, and l1 is the distance from the hinge point of the door 2 to the sliding surface of the door panel 21.

[0130] According to an embodiment of the present application, δ1=δ2, and γ=λ, and thus the initial gaps between the door panel 21 and both sides of the cabinet 60 are equal, ensuring the aesthetics of the embedded refrigeration equipment.

[0131] According to an embodiment of the present application, the relative motion between the door panel 21 and the box door 2 is determined by a sliding mechanism or a traction mechanism that drives the sliding mechanism to move. In the case where the relative motion between the door panel 21 and the box door 2 is determined by the sliding mechanism, once the movement amount Δs is determined, the sliding mechanism is determined. Specifically, when δ1 and δ2 are determined, in this case, the functional relationship of Δs can be determined by δ1 and δ2, and then a sliding mechanism or traction cabinet that meets the requirements is obtained based on Δs.

[0132] According to an embodiment of the present application, the sliding door mechanism 7 includes a sliding mechanism and a traction mechanism.

[0133] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 4 and 5, the sliding mechanism includes: a first base 717, a first slider 714, a second slider 713 and a flexible cable 706. A first guide rail is formed on one side of the first base 717, and a second guide rail is formed on the other side. The first slider 714 is slidably disposed on the first guide rail, and the traction mechanism is rotatably connected between the box body 1 and the first slider 717. The second slider 713 is slidably disposed on the second guide rail for connection with the door panel 21. The two ends of the flexible cable 706 are respectively connected to the first slider 714 and the second slider 713. When the first slider 714 moves on the first guide rail, the first slider 714 drives the second slider 713 to move in the opposite direction on the second guide rail through the flexible cable 706, so as to drive the door panel 21 to move relative to the width direction of the box door 2.

[0134] The sliding mechanism of this embodiment can be arranged on the box door 2, and one of the first slider 714 and the second slider 713 is transmission-connected to the box door 2 or the box body 1, and the other is slidingly connected to the door panel 21 arranged on the outside of the box door 2, so that when the box door 2 rotates, the first slider 714 and the second slider 713 slide relative to each other to drive the door panel 21 to slide relative to the box door 2, so that the door panel 21 can avoid obstacles on both sides during the process of turning the box door 2 open and close.

[0135] Specifically, taking the example of a first slider 714 connected to the housing 1 via a traction mechanism and a second slider 713 connected to the door panel 21, the first base 717 of this embodiment can be disposed on the door 2. The ends of the flexible cable 706 are respectively connected to the first slider 714 and the second slider 713, so that the first slider 714 can pull the second slider 713 to move synchronously via the flexible cable 706, thereby driving the door panel 21 to slide relative to the door 2.

[0136] By properly setting the extension direction of the flexible cable 706 , the first slider 714 and the second slider 713 move in opposite directions during movement, thereby driving the door panel 21 to avoid obstacles.

[0137] For example, when the door 2 is rotated to open outside the housing 1, the door 1 drives the first slider 714 to slide toward the first hinge 4 via the traction mechanism. Simultaneously, the first slider 714 drives the second slider 713 to slide in the opposite direction (i.e., away from the first hinge 4) via the flexible cable 706, thereby preventing the door panel 21 from interfering with an obstacle outside. When the door 2 is rotated to close toward the housing 1, the housing 1 drives the first slider 714 to slide away from the first hinge 4. Simultaneously, the first slider 714 drives the second slider 713 to slide in the opposite direction (i.e., toward the first hinge 4) via the flexible cable 706, thereby preventing the door panel 21 from interfering with an obstacle after closing.

[0138] The first slider 714 can also be connected to the door panel 21. Correspondingly, the second slider 713 is connected to the box door 2 or the box body 1 through a traction mechanism. The working process is the same as that of the above embodiment and will not be repeated here.

[0139] According to the sliding mechanism of the present application, a first guide rail and a second guide rail are arranged on both sides of the first base 717, and a first slider 714 and a second slider 713 are slidably arranged on the first guide rail and the second guide rail respectively. The first slider 714 and the second slider 713 can slide synchronously along the guide rails under the transmission of the flexible rope 706, and the sliding directions are opposite. One of the first slider 714 and the second slider 713 is connected to the box door 2 or the box body 1 through a traction mechanism, and the other is connected to the door panel 21 arranged on the outside of the box door 2, so that when the box door 2 rotates, the two sliders slide relative to each other to drive the door panel 21 to slide relative to the box door 2, so that the door panel 21 can avoid obstacles on both sides during the process of turning the box door 2 on and off.

[0140] It should be noted that, in actual applications, the designs of the first slider 714 and the second slider 713 can be flexible and adaptable to different working scenarios and performance requirements. They are not limited to specific shapes, sizes or materials, but can be customized and optimized according to specific needs.

[0141] From a material perspective, the first slider 714 and the second slider 713 can be made of materials with high wear resistance, low friction coefficient, and good stability, such as metal alloys, engineering plastics, or special lubricating materials. These materials are selected to improve the durability of the sliders, reduce wear and noise during sliding, and ensure smooth sliding.

[0142] In terms of structural design, the first and second sliders 714, 713 can utilize various guide rail contact surfaces, such as flat contact, ball contact, or sliding bearing contact. Each of these contact methods has its own advantages and disadvantages. For example, ball contact reduces friction and wear, but is more expensive; flat contact, on the other hand, offers a simpler structure but may require more frequent lubrication and maintenance. Therefore, the selection process should comprehensively consider factors such as usage conditions, cost-effectiveness, and ease of maintenance.

[0143] Furthermore, to enhance the load-bearing capacity and stability of the sliders, reinforcing ribs, support plates, or other auxiliary structures may be added to the first slider 714 and the second slider 713. These structures can increase the rigidity and deformation resistance of the sliders, ensuring stable sliding performance when bearing the weight of the door panel 21 and external forces.

[0144] In this embodiment, the first guide rail and the second guide rail are arranged in sequence along the width direction of the first base 717, and the first guide rail and the second guide rail are arranged parallel to the width direction of the first base 717. While ensuring that the length of the first guide rail and the second guide rail can meet the sliding distance of the first slider 714 and the second slider 713, the dimensions of the first base 717 in the height direction and the thickness direction can be effectively reduced, and the structure is more compact and occupies less space.

[0145] In actual applications, due to factors such as machine tool accuracy, tool wear, and material unevenness, there will be certain errors in the processing of the first guide rail, the second guide rail, and the base. These errors may include dimensional errors (such as deviations in length, width, and height), shape errors (such as straightness, flatness, roundness, etc.), and position errors (such as coaxiality, parallelism, and perpendicularity). The parallelism between the first and second guide rails is evaluated by measuring the relative position deviation between them. This deviation needs to be controlled within a certain tolerance range to ensure smooth sliding of the slider and stable operation of the system. This tolerance range is usually determined based on design requirements, usage environment, and system accuracy.

[0146] It should be noted that in this embodiment, parallelism and verticality should not be strictly defined in a geometric sense. At least the manufacturing and installation errors should be considered, and the error of plus or minus 10° should be understood as within the scope of protection of the patent.

[0147] In one embodiment of the present application, as shown in FIG5 , the flexible cable 706 includes a first flexible cable and a second flexible cable. The first flexible cable passes around the first end of the first base 717 and is connected to the first ends of the first slider 714 and the second slider 713 at both ends. The second flexible cable passes around the second end of the first base 717 and is connected to the second ends of the first slider 714 and the second slider 713 at both ends.

[0148] In this embodiment, the first end of the first flexible cable is connected to the first slider 714 and the second slider 713 by passing the first flexible cable around the first base 717. When the first slider 714 slides in the direction away from the first end of the first base 717 under the drive of the box door 2 or the box body 1 through the traction mechanism, the first slider 714 drives the second slider 713 to slide in the direction close to the first end of the first base 717 through the first flexible cable. At the same time, the second end of the second flexible cable is connected to the first slider 714 and the second slider 713 by passing the second flexible cable around the first base 717. When the first slider 714 slides toward the second end away from the first base 717 under the drive of the box door 2, the first slider 714 drives the second slider 713 to slide toward the other end close to the first base 717 through the second flexible rope, thereby achieving that when the first slider 714 slides toward both ends of the first base 717 respectively, it can drive the second slider 713 and the first slider 714 to slide in the opposite direction, thereby enabling the door panel 21 to slide relative to the box door 2 as the box door 2 rotates when the box door 2 is opened and closed, so as to avoid interference with obstacles and affecting the opening and closing of the box door 2.

[0149] Flexible rope 706 can be made of steel wire rope, steel strand, or hemp rope. The choice depends on the load, operating environment, and intended use. For applications requiring heavy loads and harsh environments, steel wire rope or steel strand is recommended; for applications with lighter loads and milder environments, hemp rope can be considered. While meeting the intended use, consider the cost differences between different materials and choose the most cost-effective one. Furthermore, steel wire rope and steel strand may require regular inspection and maintenance during use to ensure performance and safety; hemp rope, on the other hand, is relatively easy to replace and maintain.

[0150] Specifically, the second slider 713 and the first slider 714 are both provided with a connector 711 for fixing the flexible cable 706 .

[0151] In one embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 5, the sliding mechanism also includes: a first fixed seat 701 and a second fixed seat 702, the first fixed seat 701 is connected to the first end of the first base 717, and is formed with a first limiting groove, the two ends of the first limiting groove are connected to the first ends of the first guide rail and the second guide rail, and a portion of the first flexible cable is slidably set in the first limiting groove; the second fixed seat 702 is connected to the second end of the first base 717, and is formed with a second limiting groove, the two ends of the second limiting groove are connected to the second ends of the first guide rail and the second guide rail, and a portion of the second flexible cable is slidably set in the second limiting groove.

[0152] In this embodiment, a first fixing seat 701 and a second fixing seat 702 are respectively provided at both ends of the first base 717, and the first fixing seat 701 and the second fixing seat 702 are respectively formed with a first limiting groove and a second limiting groove docking with the first guide rail and the second guide rail, respectively limiting and guiding the positions of the first flexible rope and the second flexible rope, so that the sliding of the first flexible rope and the second flexible rope is smoother.

[0153] Specifically, a first fixing hole is provided on the first fixing seat 701, and a first waist-shaped hole extending along the width direction of the first base 717 is provided on the first base 717; the sliding mechanism also includes a first adjusting member 704, which passes through the first fixing hole and is slidably arranged in the first waist-shaped hole to adjust the tightness of the first flexible rope by adjusting the position of the first adjusting member 704 in the first waist-shaped hole.

[0154] In this embodiment, by adjusting the position of the first adjusting member 704 in the first waist-shaped hole, the position of the first fixing seat 701 can be adjusted along the width direction of the first base 717, so that the first fixing seat 701 can tighten or loosen the first flexible rope, thereby adjusting the tightness of the first flexible rope.

[0155] Since the first flexible cable and the second flexible cable are respectively located on the first fixing seat 701 and the second fixing seat 702 on both sides of the first base 717, and the first flexible cable and the second flexible cable are connected to the first slider 714 and the second slider 713 at both ends, when the first fixing seat 701 is adjusted to move relative to the first base 717 through the first waist-shaped hole, the first flexible cable is adjusted in tightness accordingly, and the second flexible cable is also adjusted in tightness accordingly under the pulling of the first fixing seat 701 on the first flexible cable.

[0156] A first fixing hole can also be provided on the second fixing seat 702; a first waist-shaped hole extending along the width direction of the first base 717 is provided on the first base 717; the sliding mechanism also includes a first adjusting member 704, which passes through the first fixing hole and can be slidably provided in the first waist-shaped hole to adjust the tightness of the second flexible rope by adjusting the position of the first adjusting member 704 in the first waist-shaped hole.

[0157] In this embodiment, by adjusting the position of the first adjusting member 704 in the first waist-shaped hole, the position of the second fixing seat 702 can be adjusted along the width direction of the first base 717, so that the second fixing seat 702 can tighten or loosen the second flexible rope, thereby adjusting the tightness of the second flexible rope.

[0158] Since the first flexible cable and the second flexible cable are respectively located on the first fixing seat 701 and the second fixing seat 702 on both sides of the first base 717, and the first flexible cable and the second flexible cable are connected to the first slider 714 and the second slider 713 at both ends, when the second fixing seat 702 is adjusted to move relative to the first base 717 through the first waist-shaped hole, the tightness of the second flexible cable is adjusted accordingly, and the tightness of the first flexible cable is also adjusted accordingly under the pulling of the second fixing seat 702 on the second flexible cable.

[0159] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the first fixing seat 701 is provided with a second waist-shaped hole extending along the width direction of the first base 717. The first base 717 is provided with a second fixing hole. The sliding mechanism also includes a second adjustment member 703, which is sequentially passed through the second waist-shaped hole and the second fixing hole and fixed to the external structure. The position of the first fixing seat 701 relative to the external structure is adjusted by the position of the second adjustment member 703 in the second waist-shaped hole.

[0160] In this embodiment, a second waist-shaped hole is provided on the first fixing base 701, and the second adjusting member 703 is sequentially passed through the second waist-shaped hole and the second fixing hole to be fixed to the external structure, so that the first fixing base 701 is fixed to the external structure, thereby fixing the sliding mechanism to the external structure (such as the door 2). At the same time, the second adjusting member 703 can be fine-tuned along the position of the second waist-shaped hole to adjust the position of the first fixing base 701, thereby coordinating the adjustment of the position of the first fixing base 701 relative to the external structure.

[0161] The second fixing base 702 may also be provided with a second waist-shaped hole extending along the width direction of the first base 717; the second adjustment member 703 is sequentially passed through the second waist-shaped hole and the second fixing hole to be fixed to the external structure, so that the position of the second fixing base 702 relative to the external structure is adjusted by the position of the second adjustment member 703 in the second waist-shaped hole. The functions of the second adjustment member 703, the second waist-shaped hole, and the second fixing hole are similar to those of the above embodiment and will not be further described here.

[0162] Furthermore, in some embodiments, a rotatable support bearing is provided in the first limiting groove; a portion of the first flexible cable abuts the support bearing in the first limiting groove. In this embodiment, by abutting a portion of the first flexible cable against the support bearing, the movement and extension direction of the first flexible cable can be adjusted, thereby facilitating the first flexible cable to pass around the end of the first base 717 and connect to the first slider 714 and the second slider 713.

[0163] A rotatable support bearing may also be provided in the second limiting groove; a portion of the second flexible cable abuts against the support bearing in the second limiting groove to adjust the extension direction of the second flexible cable, making it convenient to pass the end of the second flexible cable around the first base 717 and connect it to the first slider 714 and the second slider 713.

[0164] Specifically, in some embodiments, the support bearing includes a first bearing 705 and a second bearing 716 , which are respectively located at one end of the first guide rail and the second guide rail on the same side and respectively located on both sides of the first base 717 .

[0165] In one embodiment of the present application, as shown in FIG5 , the traction mechanism includes a traction rod 709, a first rotating shaft fixing seat 707, and a second rotating shaft fixing seat 710. The first rotating shaft fixing seat 707 is connected to the first slider 714, and the second rotating shaft fixing seat 710 is used to be connected to the box body 1. The first end of the traction rod 709 is rotatably connected to the first rotating shaft fixing seat 707, and the second end of the traction rod 709 is rotatably connected to the second rotating shaft fixing seat 710.

[0166] In this embodiment, the first rotating shaft fixing seat 707 and the second rotating shaft fixing seat 710 are respectively fixed to the first slider 714 and the box body 1, and the first rotating shaft fixing seat 707 and the second rotating shaft fixing seat 710 are connected by a traction rod 709, so that the distance between the first slider 714 and the second rotating shaft fixing seat 710 remains unchanged. When the box door 2 rotates relative to the box body 1, the angle between the box body 1 and the box door 2 changes, so that the first slider 714 is pulled by the transmission connection of the traction rod 709, the first rotating shaft fixing seat 707 and the second rotating shaft fixing seat 710, so that the first slider 714 slides on the first base 717, and drives the second slider 713 to slide to realize the movement of the door panel 21 relative to the box door 2.

[0167] Specifically, the first end of the traction rod 709 and the first rotating shaft fixing seat 707 are rotatably connected through a pin shaft 708 and a third bearing 715 , and the second end of the traction rod 709 and the second rotating shaft fixing seat 710 are rotatably connected through another pin shaft 708 and another third bearing 715 .

[0168] In an embodiment of another aspect of the present application, as shown in Figures 3 and 4, a door assembly is provided, comprising: a box door 2, a door panel 21, and a sliding mechanism as provided in any of the above embodiments. The box door 2 is rotatably connected to the box body 1, and is suitable for opening or closing the storage space of the box body 1. The door panel 21 is slidably arranged on the outside of the box door 2; the sliding mechanism is arranged on the box door 2, the first slider 714 is used for transmission connection with the box body 1, and the second slider 713 is connected to the door panel 21. During the process of opening or closing the box door 2, the first slider 714 and the second slider 713 move in opposite directions to drive the door panel 21 to move relative to the box door 2.

[0169] Specifically, when the door 2 rotates to open toward the outside of the housing 1, the first slider 714, driven by the housing 1 through the traction mechanism, slides toward the first hinge 4. The first slider 714 drives the second slider 713 to slide away from the first hinge 4 via the flexible cable 706, thereby driving the door panel 21 to slide away from the first hinge 4, thereby preventing the door panel 21 from interfering with external obstacles. Similarly, when the door 2 rotates to close toward the side of the housing 1, the sliding mechanism drives the door panel 21 to slide toward the first hinge 4, thereby preventing the door panel 21 from interfering with obstacles after closing.

[0170] According to the door body assembly of the embodiment of the present application, a sliding mechanism is provided on the box door 2, which respectively connects the box door 2 and the door panel 21, so that when the box door 2 rotates to open or close relative to the box body 1, the door panel 21 is driven to slide in the width direction relative to the box door 2, so that the door panel 21 can avoid obstacles such as side walls and objects during the closing or opening process of the box door 2.

[0171] The sliding mechanism has the beneficial effects of the above embodiments, and the door assembly correspondingly has the beneficial effects of the above embodiments. Its specific implementation can refer to the above embodiments, and this application will not elaborate on it.

[0172] In one embodiment of the present application, as shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 , a first connecting block 712 is provided on the second sliding block 713 , and a slot for hanging the door panel 21 is formed on the first connecting block 712 .

[0173] In this embodiment, a first connecting block 712 is provided on the second slider 713, and a slot is provided on the first connecting block 712. Accordingly, a connecting component (such as a hook, a connector, etc.) adapted to the slot is provided on the door panel 21, so that the door panel 21 can be mounted on the first connecting block 712 and slide along the second slider 713. At the same time, it is also convenient for the user to remove the door panel 21 from the second slider 713 when needed, meeting the user's usage needs in different scenarios.

[0174] According to another embodiment of the present application, in addition to the above dual guide rail and dual slider structure, the sliding mechanism of the present application can also adopt the structure shown in Figures 8 to 10. The sliding mechanism includes a guide member 730, a sliding member 740, a connecting rod assembly 750 and a driving rod 760.

[0175] The guide member 730 is configured to be provided on the door. A guide structure 731 is provided on the guide member 730. The sliding member 740 is configured to be provided on the door panel. The sliding member 740 is movably provided on the guide member 730 along the width direction of the door.

[0176] The connecting rod assembly 750 is movably disposed on the guide structure 731 and can undergo structural deformation under the guidance of the guide structure 731 . The second end of the connecting rod assembly 750 is movably connected to the sliding member 740 .

[0177] The driving rod 760 is arranged in the box body and is movably connected to the first end of the connecting rod assembly 750 to drive the connecting rod assembly 750 to undergo structural deformation during the opening and closing process of the box door, and then the connecting rod assembly 750 drives the sliding member 740 to drive the door panel to move along the width direction.

[0178] As shown in the figure, the box body is installed with a hinge, and a hinge shaft is provided on the hinge. The box door is rotatably provided on the hinge shaft to realize opening or closing of the box door relative to the box body.

[0179] The guide structure 731 can ensure that the connecting rod assembly 750 moves along a predetermined path or direction, prevent it from deviating from the predetermined trajectory, and can guide the structural deformation of the connecting rod assembly 750, thereby driving the sliding member 740 to move along the width direction of the door.

[0180] Optionally, the guide structure 731 can guide the connecting rod assembly 750 to move along the tooth shape of the sprocket by cooperating with the sprocket and the chain, or the guide structure 731 can guide the connecting rod assembly 750 to move along the cross section of the guide rail by cooperating with the sliding block 742 and the guide rail.

[0181] The connecting rod assembly 750 changes the distance between the second end of the connecting rod assembly 750 and the hinge through its own structural deformation, thereby driving the distance between the sliding member 740 and the hinge to change, further realizing the change of the distance between the door panel connected to the sliding member 740 and the hinge.

[0182] Optionally, the connecting rod assembly 750 may be a parallel four-bar linkage or a crank rocker mechanism.

[0183] The sliding mechanism shown in this embodiment is characterized in that the guide member 730 is provided on the box door, the sliding member 740 is provided on the door panel, the sliding member 740 is movably provided on the guide member 730 along the width direction of the box door, and a guide structure 731 is provided on the guide member 730. The guide structure 731 can guide the connecting rod assembly 750 to perform structural deformation and movably connect the second end of the connecting rod assembly 750 to the sliding member 740. When the box door is opened, the driving rod 760 drives the first end of the connecting rod assembly 750, the connecting rod assembly 750 undergoes structural deformation, and the second end of the connecting rod assembly 750 pulls the sliding member 740 to perform structural deformation. The sliding member 740 moves in the direction away from the hinge, thereby driving the door panel to move along the width direction of the door in the direction away from the hinge, so that the door panel and the cabinet body on the side do not interfere with the cabinet body; when the door is closed, the driving rod 760 drives the first end of the connecting rod assembly 750, the connecting rod assembly 750 undergoes structural deformation, and the second end of the connecting rod assembly 750 pulls the sliding member 740 to move in the direction close to the hinge, thereby driving the door panel to move along the width direction of the door in the direction close to the hinge, so that the door panel returns to its original position, ensuring that the door panel does not interfere with the cabinet body around the refrigeration equipment.

[0184] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 8 , the connecting rod assembly 750 includes a first connecting rod 751 and a second connecting rod 752 .

[0185] The driving rod 760 is rotatably connected to the first end of the first connecting rod 751, and the second end of the first connecting rod 751 and the first end of the second connecting rod 752 are rotatably connected through the first hinge shaft 753; the first hinge shaft 753 is arranged on the guide structure 731, and moves along the thickness direction of the door panel under the guidance of the guide structure 731; the second end of the second connecting rod 752 is rotatably connected to the sliding member 740.

[0186] The driving rod 760 is used to drive the first end of the first connecting rod 751 to move along the width direction, and the first connecting rod 751 is used to drive the first hinge shaft 753 to move along the thickness direction to change the angle between the first connecting rod 751 and the second connecting rod 752, and then the second connecting rod 752 drives the sliding member 740 to move in a direction opposite to the driving direction of the driving rod 760.

[0187] The driving rod 760 provides driving force to the first end of the first connecting rod 751, and the guide structure 731 can constrain the moving path of the first hinge shaft 753, so that the first hinge shaft 753 can only move along the thickness direction of the box door, thereby changing the angle between the first connecting rod 751 and the second connecting rod 752, so that the second connecting rod 752 moves along the width direction.

[0188] During the process of the box door opening the box body, the driving rod 760 drives the first end of the first connecting rod 751 to move along the width direction toward the direction close to the hinge, and the first connecting rod 751 drives the first hinge shaft 753 to move along the thickness direction toward the sliding member 740, so that the angle between the first connecting rod 751 and the second connecting rod 752 becomes larger, pushing the second connecting rod 752 to move toward the direction away from the hinge, and then driving the sliding member 740 to move along the width direction toward the direction away from the hinge, so that the door panel and the side cabinet body do not interfere with the cabinet body.

[0189] During the process of closing the door, the driving rod 760 drives the first end of the first connecting rod 751 to move in the direction away from the hinge along the width direction, and the first connecting rod 751 drives the first hinge shaft 753 to move in the thickness direction away from the sliding member 740, so that the angle between the first connecting rod 751 and the second connecting rod 752 becomes smaller, pushing the second connecting rod 752 to move in the direction close to the hinge, and then driving the sliding member 740 to move in the width direction close to the hinge, so that the door panel returns to its original position, ensuring that the door panel does not interfere with the cabinet body around the refrigeration equipment.

[0190] In this embodiment, a first connecting rod 751, a second connecting rod 752 and a first hinge shaft 753 are provided in the connecting rod assembly 750, and the movement of the first hinge shaft 753 is limited to the thickness direction. By changing the angle between the first connecting rod 751 and the second connecting rod 752, the second connecting rod 752 can drive the sliding member 740 to move in the width direction, thereby realizing the movement of the door panel relative to the box door. The structure is simple and the volume is small.

[0191] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG8 , the driving rod 760 includes a linkage.

[0192] The first end of the linkage is configured to be rotatably fixed on the housing of the refrigeration equipment, and the second end of the linkage is rotatably connected to the first end of the first connecting rod 751; the fixed position is set away from the hinge position between the door and the housing.

[0193] When the door opens the box body, the linkage member drives the first end of the first connecting rod 751 to move toward the side close to the hinge position, and the second connecting rod 752 drives the sliding member 740 to move the door panel toward the side away from the hinge position.

[0194] When the door closes the box body, the linkage member drives the first end of the first connecting rod 751 to move toward the side away from the hinge position, and the second connecting rod 752 drives the sliding member 740 to move the door panel toward the side close to the hinge position.

[0195] The first end of the linkage in this embodiment is rotatably provided on the hinge. When the box door rotates relative to the box body around the hinge axis, the second end of the linkage rotates in a circle with the hinge axis as the center. Since the first end of the linkage is staggered with the hinge axis, the distance between the second end of the linkage and the hinge will change with the rotation of the linkage, thereby driving the connecting rod assembly 750 to move closer to or away from the hinge along the width direction of the box door.

[0196] During the process of the box door opening the box body, as the box door rotates, the box door drives the connecting member to rotate, and the second end of the connecting member drives the first end of the first connecting rod 751 to move toward the side close to the hinge position, and the second end of the second connecting rod 752 drives the sliding member 740 to move toward the side away from the hinge position, thereby causing the door panel to move toward the side away from the hinge position.

[0197] During the process of closing the box body by the box door, as the box door rotates, the box door drives the linkage to rotate, and the second end of the linkage drives the first end of the first connecting rod 751 to move toward the side away from the hinge position, and the second end of the second connecting rod 752 drives the sliding member 740 to move toward the side away from the hinge position, thereby causing the door panel to move toward the side close to the hinge position.

[0198] In this embodiment, the first end of the connecting member is set to deviate from the hinge position between the box door and the box body, so that the second end of the connecting member can drive the first end of the first connecting rod 751, so that the second connecting rod 752 can drive the sliding member 740 to move in the width direction. The opening and closing of the box door can control the transmission of the connecting member driving the connecting rod assembly 750, so that the sliding member 740 can drive the door panel to move in the width direction. Without the need for an additional driving device, the movement of the door panel relative to the box door can be synchronized with the opening and closing of the box door.

[0199] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 9 , the guide structure 731 includes: a first limiting groove 7311 .

[0200] The first limiting groove 7311 extends along the thickness direction.

[0201] The first hinge shaft 753 is inserted into the first limiting groove 7311 and can move along the extending direction of the first limiting groove 7311 .

[0202] The first limiting groove 7311 is used to limit the first hinge shaft 753 so that the first hinge shaft 753 can only move along the thickness direction, thereby allowing the angle between the first connecting rod 751 and the second connecting rod 752 respectively connected to the first hinge shaft 753 to change, and the movement directions of the second end of the first connecting rod 751 and the second end of the second connecting rod 752 are opposite.

[0203] The first limiting groove 7311 of this embodiment can guide the moving direction of the first hinge shaft 753, and the first limiting groove 7311 can be directly opened on the upper surface of the guide member 730 without occupying additional space, thereby ensuring the compactness of the structure of the sliding mechanism.

[0204] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 9 , the guide structure 731 further includes: a second limiting groove 7312 .

[0205] The second limiting groove 7312 extends along the width direction and is communicated with the first limiting groove 7311 .

[0206] The driving rod 760 is rotatably connected to the first end of the first connecting rod 751 via a second hinge shaft 754. The second end of the second connecting rod 752 is rotatably connected to the sliding member 740 via a third hinge shaft 755. The second hinge shaft 754 and the third hinge shaft 755 are respectively inserted into the second limiting groove 7312 and are capable of moving along the extension direction of the second limiting groove 7312.

[0207] The second hinge axis 754 and the third hinge axis 755 are respectively arranged on both sides of the first limiting groove 7311 .

[0208] The second limiting groove 7312 is used to limit the second hinge shaft 754 and the third hinge shaft 755, so that the second hinge shaft 754 and the third hinge shaft 755 can only move along the width direction, thereby enabling the second connecting rod 752 to drive the sliding member 740 to move along the width direction. The second limiting groove 7312 of this embodiment prevents the moving direction of the sliding member 740 from being offset, thereby ensuring the reliability and stability of the moving direction of the sliding member 740, thereby ensuring the reliability of the door panel moving along the width direction of the box door.

[0209] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 8 , the sliding mechanism further includes an elastic member 770 .

[0210] The elastic member 770 is disposed between the guide member 730 and the sliding member 740 .

[0211] When the connecting rod assembly 750 drives the sliding member 740 to move toward a side away from the hinge position, the sliding member 740 compresses the elastic member 770 in the process of driving the door panel to move.

[0212] When the connecting rod assembly 750 drives the sliding member 740 to move toward the side close to the hinge position, the elastic member 770 drives the sliding member 740 to drive the door panel to move toward the hinge position.

[0213] The hinged position is located between the box door and the box body, and the box door is rotatably arranged on the box body based on the hinged position.

[0214] When the link assembly 750 drives the sliding member 740 to move toward a side away from the hinge position, the elastic member 770 is squeezed in a direction away from the hinge to accumulate elastic potential energy.

[0215] When the connecting rod assembly 750 drives the sliding member 740 to move toward the side close to the hinge position, the elastic potential energy of the elastic member 770 is released, and the elastic force of the elastic member 770 acts on the sliding member 740, driving the sliding member 740 to move close to the hinge position.

[0216] Specifically, the elastic member 770 may be an elastic sheet, an elastic block, or a spring.

[0217] In this embodiment, by providing an elastic member 770 in the sliding mechanism, based on the elastic deformation of the elastic member 770 , it can ensure that the movement of the sliding member 740 relative to the guide member 730 is more stable and reliable.

[0218] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 8 to FIG. 10 , the guide member 730 includes a fixing plate 732 and a sliding groove 733 .

[0219] The fixing plate 732 is configured to be provided on the box door.

[0220] The sliding groove 733 is disposed on the fixed plate 732 and extends along the width direction. At least a portion of the sliding member 740 is movably disposed in the sliding groove 733 along the width direction.

[0221] The fixed plate 732 of this embodiment is used to be fixedly connected to the box door, and the slide groove 733 is used to guide the sliding member 740 to move along the width direction of the box door. Based on the sliding cooperation between the sliding member 740 and the slide groove 733, it is ensured that the sliding member 740 can move stably and reliably along the width direction of the box door.

[0222] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 10 , the guide member 730 further includes a sliding sleeve 734 . The sliding sleeve 734 is disposed at one end of the sliding groove 733 away from the hinge position.

[0223] The sliding member 740 includes a guide rod 741 and a sliding block 742. The guide rod 741 is inserted into the sliding sleeve 734. A sliding contact 745 is provided on the guide rod 741. The sliding contact 745 is movably provided in the sliding groove 733 along the width direction. The sliding block 742 is connected to the guide rod 741 and is configured to be connected to the door panel.

[0224] The elastic member 770 is disposed between the sliding sleeve 734 and the sliding contact 745 .

[0225] The sliding groove 733 of this embodiment is set in an arc shape to adapt to the outer wall of the guide rod 741. The sliding sleeve 734 is used to guide the movement of the guide rod 741 relative to the sliding groove 733. As the sliding member 740 moves on the sliding groove 733, the sliding contact 745 also moves accordingly. The sliding sleeve 734 is fixed relative to the fixed plate 732. The elastic member 770 is limited between the sliding sleeve 734 and the sliding contact 745. When the guide rod 741 moves toward the side away from the hinge, the sliding member 740 moves. The moving contact 745 moves toward the sleeve 734, causing the elastic member 770 between the sleeve 734 and the sliding contact 745 to be compressed. When the guide rod 741 moves toward the side close to the hinge, the elastic member 770 releases its elastic potential energy and stretches, and the sliding contact 745 moves in the direction away from the sleeve 734. The sleeve 734 and the sliding contact 745 constrain the elastic member 770 from both sides of the elastic member 770 to ensure the reliability of the compression and extension of the elastic member 770.

[0226] In addition, the first end of the sliding block 742 is connected to the guide rod 741, and the second end of the sliding block 742 is connected to the door panel, so that when the guide rod 741 moves along the width direction of the box door, the sliding can drive the door panel to move along the width direction of the box door.

[0227] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 8 , the elastic member 770 includes a spring, which is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 741 and is located between the sliding sleeve 734 and the sliding contact 745 .

[0228] When the elastic member 770 is set as a spring, the hollow structure of the spring enables the spring to be mounted on the outer wall of the guide rod 741, and the state of the spring changes between compression and extension in the length direction of the guide rod 741. In addition, the sliding sleeve 734 and the sliding contact 745 can limit the two sides of the spring from both ends of the guide rod 741, so as to facilitate the stopping of both ends of the spring during compression and extension. The spring of this embodiment makes the structure of the door panel simple and compact when it is reset relative to the box door, and the volume is small, which saves the installation space of the door panel.

[0229] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 8 and FIG. 9 , the sliding member 740 further includes a first connecting arm 743 and a second connecting arm 744 .

[0230] The first connecting arm 743 and the second connecting arm 744 are spaced apart in the width direction, the first end of the guide rod 741 is connected to the first end of the sliding block 742 through the first connecting arm 743, and the second end of the guide rod 741 is connected to the second end of the sliding block 742 through the second connecting arm 744.

[0231] The sliding sleeve 734 and the sliding contact 745 are located between the first connecting arm 743 and the second connecting arm 744 .

[0232] The first connecting arm 743 and the second connecting arm 744 connect the guide rod 741 and the sliding block 742 from both ends of the guide rod 741 and the sliding block 742 respectively, so that the connection between the guide rod 741 and the sliding block 742 is more firm, and when the sliding block 742 moves along the width direction of the box door, it is easier to fit the width direction.

[0233] Furthermore, the sliding block 742 of this embodiment is arranged perpendicular to the first connecting arm 743 and the second connecting arm 744, so that when the door panel is installed on the sliding block 742, the fixed plate 732 is installed on the top of the box door, and the door panel and the box door can fit parallel to each other, ensuring the flatness of the door panel installed on the box door, and facilitating the movement of the door panel along the box door.

[0234] Of course, in addition to the above-mentioned slide rails and sliders or connecting rods, the sliding mechanism can also adopt a gear rack structure, a cable structure, etc. The specific structure is not limited, as long as the sliding mechanism can drive the door panel to move relative to the door. Correspondingly, the traction mechanism is not limited to the above examples. For example, the traction mechanism can adopt a cylinder, a rope, etc. The specific examples are not listed one by one. In addition, the traction mechanism can be an electric structure or a mechanical structure.

[0235] In one embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figures 4, 11, and 12, the door assembly further comprises a first driven guide rail mechanism 8. The first driven guide rail mechanism 8 is disposed parallel to the sliding mechanism and is located on the door 2, and comprises a second base 817 and a third slider 813. A third guide rail is formed on the second base 817, and a third slider 813 is slidably disposed on the third guide rail. The third slider 813 is provided with a second connecting block 812, which has a slot formed therein for the door panel 21 to be attached.

[0236] In this embodiment, a first driven guide rail mechanism 8 is provided on the door 2 in parallel with the sliding mechanism. The first driven guide rail mechanism 8 has a second base 817, on which a third guide rail and a third slider 813 that can slide along the third guide rail are provided. The third slider 813 is connected to the door panel 21 via a second connecting block 812. The third slider 813 can slide with the door panel 21 when the door panel 21 slides relative to the door 2, providing support and auxiliary support for the sliding of the door panel 21, making the sliding of the door panel 21 relative to the door 2 smoother. At the same time, the first driven guide rail mechanism 8 can cooperate with the sliding mechanism to limit the movement direction of the door panel 21, reducing the shaking of the door panel 21 during the sliding process and making the sliding more stable. In addition, the slot on the second connecting block 812 makes it convenient for the user to install the door panel 21 on the driven guide rail mechanism.

[0237] Furthermore, the first driven guide rail mechanism 8 also includes a third fixed seat 801 and a fourth fixed seat 802. The third fixed seat 801 and the fourth fixed seat 802 are also provided with limiting grooves similar to the first fixed seat 701 and the second fixed seat 702.

[0239] The fourth fixing seat 802 may also be provided with a third fixing hole; the second base 817 is provided with a third waist-shaped hole extending along the width direction of the second base 817; the third adjusting member 804 passes through the third fixing hole and is slidably provided in the third waist-shaped hole to adjust the position of the third adjusting member 804 in the third waist-shaped hole.

[0240] Furthermore, the third fixing base 801 is provided with a fourth waist-shaped hole extending along the width direction of the second base 817. The second base 817 is provided with a fourth fixing hole. The fourth adjustment member 803 is sequentially passed through the fourth waist-shaped hole and the fourth fixing hole and fixed to the external structure. The position of the third fixing base 801 relative to the external structure is adjusted by the position of the fourth adjustment member 803 in the fourth waist-shaped hole.

[0241] The fourth fixing seat 802 may also be provided with a fourth waist-shaped hole extending along the width direction of the third base 902; the fourth adjusting member 803 passes through the fourth waist-shaped hole and the fourth fixing hole in sequence and is fixed in the external structure, so as to adjust the position of the fourth fixing seat 802 relative to the external structure through the position of the fourth adjusting member 803 in the fourth waist-shaped hole.

[0242] In one embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figures 4, 13 and 14, the door body assembly also includes a second driven guide rail mechanism 9, which is arranged off-axis from the sliding mechanism. The second driven guide rail mechanism 9 includes a third base 902 and a fourth slider 903. A fourth guide rail is formed on the third base 902, and the fourth slider 903 is slidably arranged on the fourth guide rail. A plurality of third connecting blocks 905 are provided on the fourth slider 903, and a slot for hanging the door panel 21 is formed on the third connecting block 905.

[0243] In this embodiment, by setting up a second driven guide rail mechanism 9, the fourth slider 903 of the second driven guide rail mechanism 9 can slide with the door panel 21 when the door panel 21 slides relative to the box door 2, thereby supporting and assisting the sliding of the door panel 21, so that the door panel 21 can slide more stably and smoothly relative to the box door 2.

[0244] At the same time, since the second driven guide rail mechanism 9 and the sliding mechanism are arranged on different axes, the third connecting block 905 can cooperate with the sliding mechanism to limit the movement direction of the door panel 21, thereby preventing the door panel 21 from deflecting around the sliding direction when sliding, and the sliding process is more stable and reliable.

[0245] In one embodiment of the present application, as shown in FIG13 and FIG14 , a fifth fixing seat 901 and a sixth fixing seat 904 are respectively provided at both ends of the third base 902 of the second driven guide rail mechanism 9 for fixed connection with the box door 2 .

By adjusting the position of the fixing member within the waist-shaped hole, the position of the first hook 2111 can be fine-tuned, facilitating installation of the door panel 21 and fine-tuning its position and angle.

[0279] The structure of the second hook 2112 is similar to that of the first hook 2111 and will not be described again here.

[0280] In one embodiment of the present application, the door assembly and the cabinet 1 are used to be arranged in an installation space formed between a first cabinet and a second cabinet; during the opening or closing process of the cabinet door 2, the sliding mechanism is configured to drive the door panel 21 to move a preset distance on the cabinet door 2 so that the door panel 21 avoids the side walls of the first cabinet and the second cabinet.

[0281] In this embodiment, the box body 1 is arranged between the first cabinet body and the second cabinet body, and the material and color of the door panel 21 can be designed to be similar or the same as the material color of the outer wall of the cabinet body. When the box door 2 is closed, the door panel 21 is flush with the outer walls of the first cabinet body and the second cabinet body on both sides, so that the door panel 21 and the outer wall of the cabinet body can maintain visual consistency with a smaller gap, which is more beautiful.

[0282] When the door 2 is rotated outward to open, the sliding mechanism drives the door panel 21 to slide a preset distance away from the first hinge 4 to prevent the door panel 21 from interfering with the cabinet wall on the side closest to the first hinge 4, which would prevent the door 2 from opening to a wider angle. When the door 2 is rotated to close, the sliding mechanism drives the door panel 21 to slide a preset distance toward the first hinge 4 to prevent the door panel 21 from interfering with the cabinet wall on the side away from the first hinge 4, which would prevent the door 2 from fully closing and affect the function of the cabinet 1. When the door 2 is fully closed, the door panel 21 can return to a state flush with the cabinet. By designing a reasonable preset distance, the door panel 21 can avoid interference with the cabinet walls on both sides when sliding relative to the door 2.

[0283] In another embodiment of the present application, the door assembly and the box body 1 are used to be set in a cabinet; during the opening or closing process of the box door 2, the sliding mechanism is configured to drive the door panel 21 to move a preset distance on the box door 2 so that the door panel 21 avoids the side wall of the cabinet.

[0284] In this embodiment, the box body 1 is set in a single cabinet body, and the material and color of the door panel 21 can be designed to be similar or the same as the material color of the outer wall of the cabinet body. When the box door 2 is closed, the door panel 21 is flush with the outer wall of the cabinet body, so that the door panel 21 and the outer wall of the cabinet body can maintain visual consistency and the gap is smaller, which is more beautiful.

[0285] When the door 2 is rotated outward to open, the sliding mechanism drives the door panel 21 to slide a preset distance away from the first hinge 4 to prevent the door panel 21 from interfering with the cabinet wall on the side closest to the first hinge 4, which would prevent the door 2 from opening to a wider angle. When the door 2 is rotated to close, the sliding mechanism drives the door panel 21 to slide a preset distance toward the first hinge 4 to prevent the door panel 21 from interfering with the cabinet wall on the side away from the first hinge 4, which would prevent the door 2 from fully closing and affect the function of the cabinet 1. When the door 2 is fully closed, the door panel 21 can return to a state flush with the cabinet. By designing a reasonable preset distance, the door panel 21 can avoid interference with the cabinet walls on both sides when sliding relative to the door 2.

[0286] In another embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, a refrigeration device is provided, comprising: a housing 1 and a door assembly as provided in any of the above embodiments.

[0287] In this embodiment, the door assembly includes: a door 2, a door panel 21, and a sliding mechanism. The sliding mechanism is provided on the door 2 and is configured to drive the door panel 21 to move in the width direction relative to the door 2 during the process of opening or closing the door 2.

[0288] By setting a door panel 21 on the cabinet door 2, when the refrigeration equipment is embedded and set in a groove-shaped space, or when it is set between two cabinets, the door panel 21 can be set flush with the cabinets on the side walls or both sides of the groove to reduce the gap between the refrigeration equipment and the adjacent wall or cabinet, making it more beautiful.

[0289] At the same time, when the box door 2 rotates, the sliding mechanism can drive the door panel 21 to move relative to the box door 2 during the rotation of the box door 2 to stay as far away as possible from obstacles such as the wall or cabinet of the side door of the box body 1, so as to avoid these obstacles blocking the door panel 21 and affecting the rotation of the box door 2, causing the box door 2 to be unable to open or close normally.

[0290] The combination of door 2 and door panel 21 prevents interference between the door panel 21 and surrounding objects during opening and closing, significantly improving ease of use. This design advantage is particularly evident in cramped kitchen environments. Furthermore, the sliding mechanism ensures smooth movement of the door panel 21 during opening and closing, extending the refrigerator's lifespan and stability.
