[0030] Refrigerators, as a common appliance in daily life, are now widely used. Users can store food in refrigerators to avoid food spoilage.

[0031] Due to the diversification of market demand, refrigerators usually need to be equipped with two sets of drawers, which are respectively adapted to roller type drawers or slide rail type drawers. However, this will cause the number of refrigerator parts to increase, thereby reducing assembly efficiency and increasing the production cost of the refrigerator.

[0032] To solve the above technical problems, some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a refrigerator 1000, which includes a drawer, a guide rail body, a first roller, a slide rail assembly, and a second roller. The guide rail body is provided with a first groove, and the drawer is provided with a second groove. The first roller can be adapted to the second groove, and the second roller can be adapted to the first groove.

[0033] In the case where the roller-type drawer is required to be used, the slide rail assembly can be taken out of the refrigerator 1000, and the first roller is installed to the guide rail body and the second roller is installed to the drawer, so that the first roller enters the second groove of the drawer and the second roller enters the first groove of the guide rail body, thereby realizing the roller-type installation of the drawer and the guide rail body.

[0034] In the case where the roller-type drawer is required to be used, the slide rail assembly can be taken out of the refrigerator 1000, and the first roller is installed to the guide rail body and the second roller is installed to the drawer, so that the first roller enters the second groove of the drawer and the second roller enters the first groove of the guide rail body, thereby realizing the roller-type installation of the drawer and the guide rail body.

[0035] In this way, the refrigerator 1000 only needs to be provided with one set of drawer, which can meet the installation requirements of the roller-type drawer and the slide rail-type drawer, thereby improving the universality of the drawer, reducing the number of parts of the refrigerator 1000, improving the assembly efficiency of the refrigerator 1000, and reducing the production cost of the refrigerator 1000.

[0036] Referring to FIG. 1, the refrigerator 1000 in some embodiments of the present disclosure includes a cabinet 1, which constitutes the overall appearance of the refrigerator 1000. The cabinet 1 is generally in the shape of a rectangular frame. The top of the cabinet 1 and the bottom of the cabinet 1 are opposite ends, and the top-to-bottom direction of the cabinet 1 is the height direction of the cabinet 1. The left side of the cabinet 1 and the right side of the cabinet 1 are opposite sides, and the left-to-right direction of the cabinet 1 is the width direction of the cabinet 1. The front side of the cabinet 1 and the rear side of the cabinet 1 are opposite sides, and the front-to-rear direction of the cabinet 1 is the thickness direction of the cabinet 1. The top of the cabinet 1 can be the upper part shown in FIG. 1, and the bottom of the cabinet 1 can be the lower part shown in FIG. 1.

[0037] The cabinet 1 includes a storage compartment 11 configured to place goods. The storage compartment 11 is provided with an opening, and the opening is arranged to face the front side of the cabinet 1. The storage compartment 11 can be a cold storage compartment, a freezing compartment, or the like. The storage compartment 11 can be a cold storage temperature environment (for example, 2-8°C) or a freezing temperature environment (for example, -20-5°C).

[0038] The refrigerator 1000 further includes a door body hinged to the cabinet 1, which is connected to the cabinet 1 in a openable and closable manner to open or close the storage compartment 11. For example, the door body is arranged at the opening of the front side of the cabinet 1.

[0039] In some embodiments, the refrigerator 1000 further includes a refrigeration system. The refrigeration system is installed in the cabinet 1 and is configured to provide cold air to the storage compartment 11.

[0040] The refrigeration system includes a compressor configured to compress and provide power for the circulation of refrigerant.

[0041] The refrigeration system further comprises an evaporator, in which the refrigerant evaporates to absorb heat from the air around the evaporator.

[0042] The refrigeration system further comprises a condenser, in which the refrigerant condenses to release heat to the air around the condenser.

[0043] The refrigeration system further comprises a drying filter configured to filter moisture and impurities such as metal shavings, dust, etc. in the refrigerant to keep the refrigeration system clean and dry.

[0044] The refrigeration system further comprises a gas return pipe configured to return the refrigerant in the refrigeration system to the compressor.

[0045] The refrigeration system further comprises a throttling device configured to regulate the flow and pressure of the refrigerant.

[0046] In some embodiments, the compressor, the evaporator, the condenser, the drying filter, the gas return pipe and the throttling device form a closed loop in a preset order. The refrigerant circulates in the closed loop to cool the refrigerator 1000.

[0047] It can be understood that the above-mentioned components in the refrigeration system are distributed at different positions of the cabinet 1 according to their different structural characteristics to meet the requirements of their corresponding functions.

[0048] In some embodiments, the working process of the refrigeration system mainly includes compression process, condensation process, throttling process and evaporation process.

[0049] The compression process includes: after the power cord of the refrigerator 1000 is connected to an external power source, if the temperature in the storage compartment 11 is greater than a preset temperature, the contact of the temperature controller is connected, and the compressor starts to work. The low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant from the evaporator is sucked into the compressor, compressed into high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas by the compressor, and then discharged into the condenser.

[0050] The condensation process includes: the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas exchanges heat with the external environment through the condenser, the temperature drops, and gradually cools into saturated refrigerant vapor at room temperature and high pressure, and into saturated refrigerant liquid.

[0051] The throttling process includes: the condensed refrigerant saturated liquid flows into the throttling device after being filtered of moisture and impurities by the drying filter, and is throttled and depressurized by the throttling device, and the refrigerant becomes wet vapor at room temperature and low pressure.

[0052] The evaporation process includes: the wet vapor at room temperature and low pressure enters the evaporator, and starts to absorb heat to vaporize. In the vaporization process, the refrigerant lowers the temperature of the evaporator and the air around the evaporator, achieving refrigeration of the refrigerator 1000, and making the refrigerant into a low-temperature and low-pressure gas.

[0053] The refrigerant from the evaporator returns to the compressor, and the above process is repeated. In this way, the refrigerator 1000 performs energy conversion through the state change of the refrigerant, transfers the heat in the refrigerator 1000 to the air outside the cabinet 1, and thus realizes the refrigeration cycle of the refrigerator 1000.

[0054] In some embodiments, the refrigerator 1000 further comprises an air supply system installed in the cabinet 1 and configured to supply cold air into the storage compartment 11.

[0055] The air supply system comprises a fan configured to provide power to the cold air flow.

[0056] The air supply system further comprises a guide cavity. The air inlet end of the guide cavity is arranged close to the fan, and the air outlet end of the guide cavity is arranged away from the fan.

[0057] In other embodiments, the air outlet end of the guide cavity is arranged close to the fan, and the air inlet end of the guide cavity is arranged away from the fan.

[0058] It can be understood that the fan can drive the air in the guide cavity. The evaporator can be correspondingly arranged in the guide cavity, and the cold air cooled by flowing through the evaporator flows along the guide cavity under the driving of the fan, and finally enters the storage compartment 11 to perform refrigeration operation on the storage compartment 11.

[0059] In some embodiments, referring to FIGS. 1-3, the refrigerator 1000 further comprises a drawer 4 which can be arranged in the storage compartment 11. The drawer 4 is configured to accommodate objects such as food and medicine.

[0060] In some embodiments, referring to FIGS. 2 and 9, the refrigerator 1000 further comprises a guide rail assembly 2. The storage compartment 11 is provided with two guide rail assemblies 2 on both sides, and the drawer 4 is arranged between the two guide rail assemblies 2 on both sides of the storage compartment 11. For example, the two guide rail assemblies 2 are arranged on the left and right sides inside the cabinet 1, and the drawer 4 is arranged between the two guide rail assemblies 2 on the left and right sides.

[0061] In some embodiments, referring to FIGS. 2 and 9, the guide rail assembly 2 comprises a guide rail body 21 which can be arranged on the inner wall of the storage compartment 11. For example, the guide rail body 21 is an integral part of the inner wall of the storage compartment 11, so that the assembly efficiency of the refrigerator 1000 can be improved. Of course, the guide rail body 21 and the inner wall of the storage compartment 11 can also be separate parts, and can be adhesively or weldingly connected, or can be detachably connected through screws or clamping structures.

[0062] In some embodiments, the inner side of the rail body 21 (i.e., the side close to the drawer 4) is provided with a first groove 23 (e.g., a guide groove) in the front-rear direction. It should be noted that the inner side of the rail body 21 is the side of the rail body 21 of the rail assembly 2 on the two sides of the storage compartment 11 that face each other. The front-rear direction is the direction of the rail body 21 close to the door body and away from the door body.

[0063] In some embodiments, the rail assembly 2 further comprises a first roller 22. The first roller 22 is detachably connected to the inner side of the rail body 21.

[0064] In some embodiments, the refrigerator 1000 further comprises a slide rail assembly 3, one side of the slide rail assembly 3 is detachably connected to the side of the rail body 21 close to the drawer 4, and the other side of the slide rail assembly 3 is connected to the drawer 4. In this way, the drawer 4 is slidably connected to the rail body 21 through the slide rail assembly 3, so as to realize the slide rail installation of the drawer 4 and the cabinet 1.

[0065] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 3, the two sides of the drawer 4 are respectively provided with a second groove 41 (e.g., a sliding groove), and the second groove 41 extends in the front-rear direction.

[0066] In some embodiments, the refrigerator 1000 further comprises a second roller 42, and the second roller 42 is arranged on the side of the drawer 4 close to the rail body 21. The two sides of the drawer 4 are respectively detachably connected with the second roller 42.

[0067] It can be understood that the first roller 22 of the rail body 21 cooperates with the second groove 41 of the drawer 4, and the second roller 42 of the drawer 4 is adapted to cooperate with the first groove 23 of the rail body 21. In this way, the drawer 4 can be connected to the rail body 21 through the first roller 22 and the second roller 42, so as to realize the roller installation of the drawer 4 and the cabinet 1.

[0068] In some embodiments, in the front-rear direction, the first roller 22 can be located on the front side of the rail body 21, and the second roller 42 can be located on the rear side of the drawer 4. In this way, the first roller 22 can slide in the second groove 41 of the drawer 4 where the second roller 42 is located, and the first roller 22 slides along the rear end of the second groove 41 to the front end of the second groove 41. The second roller 42 can slide in the first groove 23 of the rail body 21 where the first roller 22 is located, and the second roller slides along the front side of the first groove 23 to the rear side of the first groove 23, so as to realize the movement of the drawer 4 through the first roller 22 and the second roller.

[0069] In addition, when the drawer 4 is located in the storage compartment 11, the first roller 22 can support the drawer 4 on the front and rear sides of the drawer 4, respectively. During the pushing and pulling of the drawer 4, the first roller 22 cooperates with the second roller 42 to realize the stable movement of the drawer 4.

[0070] In summary, the refrigerator 1000 provided in some embodiments of the present disclosure can achieve both the slide rail type installation of the drawer 4 and the cabinet 1 and the roller type installation of the drawer 4 and the cabinet 1. That is, without changing the original structure of the drawer 4, the drawer 4 can be applicable to both the slide rail type installation and the roller type installation, improving the versatility of the drawer 4 and being conducive to improving production efficiency, and facilitating replacement of the drawer to be repaired when the drawer 4 is repaired later.

[0071] The implementation modes of the slide rail type drawer and the roller type drawer and the switching mode therebetween will be described below.

[0072] It can be understood that after the slide rail assembly 3 is installed on the inner side of the guide rail body 21, the drawer 4 is connected with the slide rail assembly 3. In this way, the drawer 4 can be matched with the guide rail body 21 through the slide rail assembly 3 to achieve the slide rail type installation of the drawer 4.

[0073] After the slide rail assembly 3 is removed from the inner side of the guide rail body 21, the first roller 22 enters the second groove 41, and the second roller 42 enters the first groove 23. In this way, the drawer 4 can be matched with the guide rail body 21 through the first roller 22 and the second roller 42 to achieve the roller type installation of the drawer 4.

[0074] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, since the slide rail assembly 3 is detachably connected to the inner side of the guide rail body 21, the drawer 4 can be used as both the slide rail type drawer and the roller type drawer in the cabinet 1.

[0075] When the slide rail assembly 3 is installed on the inner side of the guide rail body 21, the two sides of the drawer 4 are connected with the slide rail assembly 3 arranged on the guide rail body 21 on the two sides of the storage compartment 11. One side of the slide rail assembly 3 is detachably connected to the inner side of the guide rail body 21, and the other side of the slide rail assembly 3 is detachably connected to the side of the drawer 4. The drawer 4 moves in the front-rear direction through the slide rail assembly 3. At this time, the drawer 4 can be used as the slide rail type drawer.

[0076] When the slide rail assembly 3 is removed from the inner side of the guide rail body 21, the first roller 22 of the guide rail assembly 2 enters the second groove 41 of the drawer 4, and the second roller 42 of the drawer 4 enters the first groove 23 of the guide rail body 21, so that the drawer 4 moves in the front-rear direction through the first roller 22 and the second roller 42. At this time, the drawer 4 can be used as the roller type drawer.

[0077] Therefore, compared with the related art, some embodiments of the present disclosure improve the applicability of the drawer 4, facilitate conversion between the roller type drawer and the slide rail type drawer, and reduce the number of parts, thereby being conducive to reducing costs and improving production efficiency.

[0078] It should be noted that in order to improve the compactness of the refrigerator 1000 structure, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the first roller 22 and the second roller 42 need to be disassembled before the slide rail assembly 3 is installed on the inner side of the guide rail body 21, thereby reserving installation space for the slide rail assembly 3. In this way, the slide rail assembly 3 can be installed on the inner side of the guide rail body 21 to realize the switching of the roller drawer to the slide rail drawer.

[0079] In addition, after the slide rail assembly 3 is disassembled from the guide rail body 21, the first roller 22 needs to be installed on the guide rail body 21, and the second roller 42 needs to be installed on the drawer 4. Then, the first roller 22 is made to enter the second groove 41 of the drawer 4, and the second roller 42 is made to enter the first groove 23 of the guide rail body 21, to realize the switching of the slide rail drawer to the roller drawer.

[0080] That is, in the case of the refrigerator 1000 including the guide rail body 21 and the slide rail assembly 3, the drawer 4 can be used as a slide rail drawer. In the case of the refrigerator 1000 including the guide rail body 21, the first roller 22, and the second roller 42, the drawer 4 can be used as a roller drawer.

[0081] It should be noted that the guide rail assembly 2, the slide rail assembly 3, the first roller 22, and the second roller 42 provided in some embodiments of the present disclosure can not only be applied to the drawer 4, but also can be applied to the tray, the storage box, and other storage structures that can be pushed and pulled in the refrigerator 1000.

[0082] The structure of the slide rail assembly 3 and the connection structure between the slide rail assembly 3 and the guide rail assembly 2 will be described below.

[0083] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 7, the slide rail assembly 3 includes a slide rail body 31, which is arranged on the side of the guide rail body 21 close to the drawer 4.

[0084] In some embodiments, the slide rail assembly 3 further includes a fastener 32, and the side of the slide rail body 31 facing the guide rail body 21 is detachably connected to the inner side of the guide rail body 21 through the fastener 32. For example, the fastener 32 can be a fixed screw.

[0085] In the width direction of the cabinet 1, the side of the slide rail body 31 facing the guide rail body 21 can be fixed to the inner side of the guide rail body 21 by the fixed screw, and the other side of the slide rail body 31 facing the drawer 4 can be connected to the drawer 4, thereby realizing the switching of the slide rail drawer.

[0086] After the fixed screw is loosened, the slide rail body 31 can be disassembled from the guide rail body 21. Thus, the detachable connection of the slide rail body 31 and the guide rail body 21 is realized by the fixed screw.

[0087] In some embodiments, referring to FIGS. 7 and 8, the first hole 311 (e.g., a clearance hole) is formed on the side of the sliding rail body 31 opposite to the guide rail body 21. The second hole 312 (e.g., a clamping hole) is also formed on the side of the sliding rail body 31 opposite to the guide rail body 21. The first hole 311 and the second hole 312 are in communication with each other.

[0088] In some embodiments, referring to FIGS. 7, 9 and 10, the guide rail assembly 2 further comprises a clamping portion 24 (e.g., a clamping block) disposed on the side of the guide rail body 21 close to the sliding rail body 31. The clamping portion 24 is adapted to be inserted into the first hole 311 and moved into the second hole 312 to position the sliding rail body 31, thereby facilitating the installation of the sliding rail body 31 and improving the installation efficiency of the sliding rail body 31.

[0089] In some embodiments, the size of the first hole 311 is greater than the size of the second hole 312. That is, the projected area of the first hole 311 on the guide rail body 21 is greater than the projected area of the second hole 312 on the guide rail body 21.

[0090] For example, the projected area of the first hole 311 on the guide rail body 21 can be greater than the projected area of the clamping portion 24 on the guide rail body 21, and the projected area of the second hole 312 on the guide rail body 21 can match the clamping portion 24. In this way, during the installation of the sliding rail assembly 3 to the guide rail body 21, the clamping portion 24 is facilitated to be inserted into the first hole 311, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the sliding rail assembly 3. In addition, the projected area of the second hole 312 on the guide rail body 21 is matched with the clamping portion 24, so that after the clamping portion 24 is moved into the second hole 312, the clamping portion 24 can cooperate with the second hole 312 to fix the sliding rail assembly 3, thereby facilitating the subsequent installation of the fastener 32.

[0091] In some embodiments, a third slot 25 (e.g., a clamping slot) is formed on the side of the clamping portion 24. After the clamping portion 24 is inserted into the first hole 311 and moved into the second hole 312, the inner edge of the second hole 312 can be clamped into the third slot 25 of the clamping portion 24. In this way, the third slot 25 cooperates with the inner edge of the second hole 312 to further improve the stability of the fixation between the sliding rail assembly 3 and the guide rail body 21. For example, the third slot 25 is disposed on the side wall of the clamping portion 24 facing the first hole 311, and the edge of the inner wall of the second hole 312 close to the first hole 311 can be clamped into the third slot 25, thereby realizing the cooperation between the third slot 25 and the clamping portion 24.

[0092] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the sliding rail body 31 and the guide rail body 21 can be detachably connected by the fastener 32, thereby improving the connection stability between the sliding rail body 31 and the guide rail body 21.

[0093] In some embodiments, the slide rail body 31 and the guide rail body 21 can be detachably connected through the cooperation of the clamping portion 24 and the second hole 312. In this way, the slide rail body 31 is convenient to disassemble.

[0094] In yet some embodiments, the slide rail body 31 and the guide rail body 21 can be detachably connected through the fastener 32 after the pre-fixing through the cooperation of the clamping portion 24 and the second hole 312.

[0095] For example, when the slide rail body 31 is installed on the guide rail body 21, the clamping portion 24 of the guide rail body 21 can be first inserted into the first hole 311 of the slide rail body 31. With the movement of the slide rail body 31, the clamping portion 24 of the guide rail body 21 can be slid into the second hole 312, and the inner edge of the second hole 312 can be clamped into the third groove 25 of the clamping portion 24. In this way, the pre-fixing of the slide rail body 31 and the guide rail body 21 is achieved. Then, the slide rail body 31 can be further fixed on the inner side of the guide rail body 21 through the fixing screw. In this way, not only the convenience of the installation of the slide rail body 31 is improved, but also the stability of the connection between the slide rail body 31 and the guide rail body 21 is improved.

[0096] In some embodiments, the first hole 311 is arranged on the side of the second hole 312 close to the opening of the storage compartment 11. That is, in the front-rear direction of the cabinet 1, the first hole 311 is located on the front side of the second hole 312. At this time, after the clamping portion 24 is inserted into the first hole 311, the slide rail body 31 can continue to move towards the outside of the storage compartment 11 to clamp the clamping portion 24 in the second hole 312 and clamp the inner edge of the second hole 312 in the third groove 25.

[0097] In some other embodiments, the first hole 311 is arranged on the side of the second hole 312 close to the opening of the storage compartment 11. That is, in the front-rear direction of the cabinet 1, the first hole 311 is located on the front side of the second hole 312. At this time, after the clamping portion 24 is inserted into the first hole 311, the slide rail body 31 can continue to move towards the inside of the storage compartment 11 to clamp the clamping portion 24 in the second hole 312 and clamp the inner edge of the second hole 312 in the third groove 25.

[0098] In some embodiments, the first hole 311 is arranged on one side of the second hole 312 close to the bottom of the cabinet 1. That is, in the height direction of the cabinet 1, the first hole 311 is located on the lower side of the second hole 312. At this time, after the clamping portion 24 is inserted into the first hole 311, the slide rail body 31 can continue to move towards the bottom of the storage compartment 11 to clamp the clamping portion 24 in the second hole 312 and clamp the inner edge of the second hole 312 in the third groove 25. Since the slide rail body 31 is connected to the drawer 4, under the gravity of the drawer 4 and the slide rail body 31 itself, the clamping portion 24 can be firmly clamped in the second hole 312, so that the slide rail body 31 can be firmly fixed to the guide rail body 21.

[0099] It can be understood that in the process of removing the slide rail body 31 from the guide rail body 21, the slide rail body 31 can be moved towards the opposite direction of the above-mentioned mounting direction to make the clamping portion 24 disengage from the second hole 312, enter the first hole 311, and separate from the slide rail body 31 through the first hole 311.

[0100] In some embodiments, the side of the slide rail body 31 towards the guide rail body 21 is provided with a plurality of first holes 311 and second holes 312. For example, the front region and the rear region of the slide rail body 31 are respectively provided with first holes 311 and second holes 312, and the first holes 311 are respectively communicated with the adjacent second holes 312. The front region and the rear region of the guide rail body 21 are respectively provided with clamping portions 24, which are respectively clamped into the corresponding second holes 312.

[0101] For example, when the slide rail body 31 is mounted on the inside of the guide rail body 21, first, the plurality of clamping portions 24 of the guide rail body 21 can be respectively inserted into the corresponding first holes 311 of the slide rail body 31, and then the slide rail body 31 can be moved in the front-rear direction to make the plurality of clamping portions 24 respectively clamped into the corresponding second holes 312. Since the front region and the rear region of the slide rail body 31 are respectively clamped into the corresponding clamping portions 24, the connection stability of the slide rail body 31 and the guide rail body 21 in the pre-fixing stage can be enhanced.

[0102] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 10, the guide rail assembly 2 further comprises a buckle 26 arranged on the side of the guide rail body 21. The buckle 26 can be an elastic buckle.

[0103] Referring to FIG. 8, the buckle 26 can be arranged on the side (for example, the front side) of the clamping portion 24 close to the first hole 311.

[0104] The side of the slide rail body 31 opposite to the guide rail body 21 is also provided with a clamping hole 313, so that after the clamping portion 24 is clamped into the second hole 312, the buckle 26 can be clamped into the clamping hole 313, thereby limiting the movement of the slide rail body 31 relative to the guide rail body 21.

[0105] It can be understood that the buckle 26 cooperates with the buckle opening 313 to limit the slide rail body 31. In addition, the buckle 26 is provided as an elastic buckle, which facilitates the installation and disassembly of the buckle 26 and the buckle opening 313, and is beneficial to improve the installation and disassembly efficiency of the slide rail body 31.

[0106] For example, when the slide rail body 31 is placed on the inner side of the guide rail body 21, the clamping portion 24 of the guide rail body 21 can enter the first hole 311 of the slide rail body 31. At this time, the buckle 26 is in a compressed state. Then the slide rail body 31 moves along the front-back direction, and the clamping portion 24 can be clamped into the second hole 312. At the same time that the clamping portion 24 is clamped into the end of the second hole 312, the end of the buckle 26 can be located at the buckle opening 313 of the slide rail body 31, the buckle 26 is popped up and clamped into the buckle opening 313 of the slide rail body 31, thereby pre-fixing the slide rail body 31 on the inner side of the guide rail body 21. In this way, it is convenient for the subsequent fixing screw to fix the slide rail body 31 on the inner side of the guide rail body 21, and the stability of the slide rail body 31 connected to the inner side of the guide rail body 21 can be further ensured.

[0107] In the process of removing the slide rail body 31 from the guide rail body 21, the slide rail body 31 can move towards the opposite direction of the above-mentioned installation direction, so that the clamping portion 24 is separated from the second hole 312 and enters the first hole 311, and is separated from the slide rail body 31 through the first hole 311. In this process, the buckle 26 is compressed again and separated from the buckle opening 313, so that the slide rail body 31 is disassembled from the guide rail body 21.

[0108] In some embodiments, along the front-back direction of the cabinet 1, the fastener 32 can be arranged on the front side of the slide rail body 31. In this way, the fastener 32 is arranged close to the opening of the storage compartment 11, and after the pre-fixing of the slide rail body 31 and the guide rail body 21 is realized, the fastener 32 is convenient to be installed on the slide rail body 31.

[0109] The connection structure of the slide rail assembly 3 and the drawer 4 will be described below.

[0110] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 3, the drawer 4 further comprises a connecting portion 43, for example, the connecting portion 43 is a convex strip structure. The connecting portion 43 is arranged on both sides (for example, left side and right side) of the drawer 4 along the width direction, and the connecting portion 43 is arranged extending along the front-back direction.

[0111] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 6 and FIG. 11, the slide rail assembly 3 further comprises a first mounting plate 33, and the first mounting plate 33 is fixed to the side of the slide rail body 31 opposite to the guide rail body 21.

[0112] In some embodiments, the slide rail assembly 3 further comprises a second mounting plate 34 fixed to the side of the slide rail body 31 opposite to the rail body 21.

[0113] The slide rail assembly 3 can be connected to the drawer 4 through the first mounting plate 33 and the second mounting plate 34, and can support the drawer 4. For example, in the front-rear direction of the cabinet 1, the first mounting plate 33 can be located at the front region of the slide rail body 31, and the second mounting plate 34 can be located at the rear region of the slide rail body 31. The first mounting plate 33 can be connected to the front side of the drawer 4 and support the front side of the drawer 4. The second mounting plate 34 can be connected to the rear side of the drawer 4 and support the rear side of the drawer 4.

[0114] In some embodiments, the first mounting plate 33 comprises a first mounting plate body 330 fixed to the side of the slide rail body 31 opposite to the rail body 21 and extending in the height direction of the cabinet 1.

[0115] The first mounting plate 33 further comprises a first plug plate 331 provided at the top of the first mounting plate body 330. Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, the first plug plate 331 can be inserted into the connecting portion 43 from the bottom side of the connecting portion 43 upward. The first plug plate 331 can be clamped to the connecting portion 43 to improve the connection stability between the first mounting plate 33 and the drawer 4.

[0116] Referring to FIG. 11, the first plug plate 331 can extend in the height direction of the cabinet 1 to be connected to the front side of the connecting portion 43 of the drawer 4.

[0117] In some embodiments, the second mounting plate 34 comprises a second mounting plate body 340 fixed to the side of the slide rail body 31 opposite to the rail body 21 and extending in the height direction of the cabinet 1.

[0118] The second mounting plate 34 further comprises a second plug plate 341 provided at the top of the second mounting plate body 340. Referring to FIGS. 3 and 5, the second plug plate 341 can be inserted into the connecting portion 43 from the bottom side of the connecting portion 43 upward. The second plug plate 341 can be clamped to the connecting portion 43 to improve the connection stability between the second mounting plate 34 and the drawer 4.

[0119] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 11, the second plug plate 341 can comprise a first sub-plate, a first side (e.g., the bottom) of the first sub-plate being connected to the second mounting plate body 340 and the first sub-plate extending in the height direction of the cabinet 1. The second plug plate can further comprise a second sub-plate connected to a second side (e.g., the top) of the first sub-plate and extending toward the front side of the drawer 4 to be connected to the rear side of the connecting portion 43 of the drawer 4.

[0120] In some embodiments, the first sub-plate and the second sub-plate can be at a preset angle. The preset angle can be in the range of [80°, 100°], for example, the preset angle can be 80°, 85°, 90°, 95°, 100°, etc.

[0121] It can be understood that if the preset angle is too small, it can be difficult to insert the second plug-in plate 341 into the connecting portion 43, which is not convenient for the installation of the drawer 4 and the second mounting plate 34. If the preset angle is too large, it can also affect the installation of the drawer 4 and the second mounting plate 34, and reduce the stability of the drawer 4 and the second mounting plate 34.

[0122] During the installation of the drawer 4 and the slide rail body 31, the rear end of the drawer 4 can be first inserted into the second mounting plate 34 through the second sub-plate and the first sub-plate, and then the front end of the drawer 4 is inserted into the second mounting plate 33 through the first plug-in plate 331, thereby completing the installation of the drawer 4 and the slide rail body 31.

[0123] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the first mounting plate 33 and the second mounting plate 34 are respectively fixed to the side of the slide rail body 31 opposite to the guide rail body 21, and the first mounting plate 33 and the second mounting plate 34 are respectively located in the front region and the rear region of the slide rail body 31, and then the first plug-in plate 331 of the first mounting plate 33 and the second plug-in plate 341 of the second mounting plate 34 are respectively inserted into the connecting portion 43 from the bottom side of the connecting portion 43 upward, thereby realizing the connection of the slide rail body 31 and the drawer 4.

[0124] In some embodiments, the first mounting plate 33 further comprises a first support plate 332, which is arranged on the top of the first mounting plate body 330 and extends in the horizontal direction. The first support plate 332 is supported on the bottom side of the connecting portion 43 of the front side portion of the drawer 4.

[0125] In some embodiments, the second mounting plate 34 further comprises a second support plate 342, which is arranged on the top of the second mounting plate body 340 and extends in the horizontal direction. The second support plate 342 is supported on the bottom side of the connecting portion 43 of the rear side portion of the drawer 4.

[0126] After the first plug-in plate 331 of the first mounting plate 33 and the second plug-in plate 341 of the second mounting plate 34 are respectively inserted into the connecting portion 43, the first support plate 332 of the first mounting plate 33 and the second support plate 342 of the second mounting plate 34 are respectively supported on the bottom side of the connecting portion 43 to form support for the drawer 4. In this way, the stability of the connection of the slide rail assembly 3 and the drawer 4 is strengthened, and the stability of the drawer 4 during the pushing and pulling process is also strengthened.

[0127] In summary, in the case of using the drawer 4 as a slide rail type drawer, the drawer 4 can be arranged on the top of the first support plate 332 and the second support plate 342, and the connecting portion 43 of the drawer 4 is detachably connected with the slide rail body 31 through the first plug plate 331 and the second plug plate 341 to drive the sliding component in the slide rail body 31 to move. Thus, the arrangement of the first mounting plate 33 and the second mounting plate 34 simplifies the mounting structure of the slide rail assembly 3 and the drawer 4, and improves the mounting efficiency of the slide rail type drawer.

[0128] The structure of the first groove 23 and the second groove 41 will be described below.

[0129] In some embodiments, the second groove 41 is arranged on the bottom side of the connecting portion 43 and extends along the front-rear direction. The first roller 22 is located in the front region of the guide rail body 21, and the first roller 22 enters the second groove 41 on the bottom side of the connecting portion 43. The second roller 42 is located in the rear region of the drawer 4, and the second roller 42 enters the first groove 23.

[0130] By supporting the first roller 22 of the guide rail body 21 in the second groove 41 on the bottom side of the connecting portion 43, and by entering and pressing the second roller 42 of the drawer 4 into the first groove 23 of the guide rail body 21, and by locating the first roller 22 in the front region of the guide rail body 21 and locating the second roller 42 in the rear region of the drawer 4, the first roller 22 and the second roller 42 can support the drawer 4 at the front and rear ends, respectively. In this way, the support of the drawer 4 is improved, and the storage function of the drawer 4 is ensured.

[0131] Thus, by arranging the second groove 41 on the connecting portion 43 of the drawer 4 and arranging the first roller 22 of the guide rail body 21 to enter the second groove 41 arranged on the drawer 4, compared with the roller type drawer in the related art, the number of parts is reduced, and the assembly efficiency is improved.

[0132] Thus, the refrigerator 1000 in some embodiments of the present disclosure, by arranging the connecting portion 43 on the side wall of the drawer 4, the connecting portion 43 can cooperate with the first roller 22 of the guide rail assembly 2 on the one hand to realize the roller type mounting of the drawer 4, and on the other hand can cooperate with the slide rail assembly 3 through the first mounting plate 33 and the second mounting plate 34 to realize the slide rail type mounting of the drawer 4. In this way, the versatility of the drawer 4 is improved, thereby improving the production efficiency and the mounting efficiency of the refrigerator 1000.

[0133] In some embodiments, the first groove 23 is gradually inclined downward from the middle portion to the rear end (see FIG. 9). The second groove 41 is gradually inclined upward from the middle portion to the front end (see FIG. 3). In this way, when the roller drawer is used, the second roller 42 can pass through the middle portion of the first groove 23 as the drawer 4 is pushed into the storage compartment 11. Since the first groove 23 is inclined, the drawer 4 can slide into the storage compartment 11 automatically under the action of gravity, thereby facilitating the user to push the drawer 4 into the storage compartment 11 and achieving the effect of saving labor.

[0134] It should be noted that, with reference to FIGS. 3 and 7, assuming that the length of the first groove 23 is L1, the middle portion of the first groove 23 can be at a position of [(L1 / 2)-2] cm to [(L1 / 2)+2] cm. Assuming that the length of the second groove 41 is L2, the middle portion of the second groove 41 can be at a position of [(L2 / 2)-2] cm to [(L2 / 2)+2] cm.

[0135] In addition, after the drawer 4 is completely pushed into the storage compartment 11, the first groove 23 can prevent the drawer 4 from easily sliding out of the storage compartment 11 due to the inclined arrangement of the first groove 23. At this time, the drawer 4 needs to be pulled by the user to slide out of the storage compartment 11.

[0136] It can be understood that, due to the inclined arrangement of the first groove 23, after the drawer 4 is completely pushed into the storage compartment 11, the drawer 4 is in an upwardly inclined state from the rear side of the cabinet 1 to the front side of the cabinet 1.

[0137] In some embodiments, in order to enable the second groove 41 to be adapted to the first groove 23 and improve the smoothness of the forward and backward movement of the drawer 4, the second groove 41 needs to be gradually inclined upward from the middle portion to the front end, thereby facilitating the drawer 4 to be in an inclined upward state.

[0138] It should be noted that the angles of inclination of the first groove 23 and the second groove 41 are small. For example, the first height difference of the first groove 23 from the middle portion to the rear end (i.e., the end away from the door body) can be in the range of [4 mm, 5 mm]. The second height difference of the second groove 41 from the front end (i.e., the end close to the door body) to the middle portion can also be in the range of [4 mm, 5 mm]. In this way, the storage function of the drawer 4 and the arrangement of the drawer 4 in the storage compartment 11 are ensured.

[0139] For example, the first height difference of the first groove 23 can be 4mm, 4.2mm, 4.5mm, 4.7mm, 5mm, etc. It can be understood that if the height difference of the first groove 23 is too small, the drawer 4 can still easily slide out of the storage compartment 11. If the height difference of the first groove 23 is too large, it can cause the end of the drawer 4 close to the door body to increase the angle of inclination, thereby causing the objects in the drawer 4 to tilt, making it difficult to pull the drawer 4, and also increasing the space at the lower end of the drawer 4, thereby reducing the storage space of the storage compartment 11 and affecting the storage function of the space on both sides of the drawer 4.

[0140] For example, the second height difference of the second groove 41 can be 4mm, 4.2mm, 4.5mm, 4.7mm, 5mm, etc. It can be understood that if the height difference of the second groove 41 is too small, it can not cooperate with the first groove 23, causing the end of the drawer 4 close to the door body to be stuck. If the height difference of the second groove 41 is too large, it can cause the end of the drawer 4 close to the door body to shake, thereby affecting the stability of the drawer 4 during the pushing and pulling process.

[0141] In some embodiments, the first height difference of the first groove 23 can be equal to the second height difference of the second groove 41, which can improve the fit of the first groove 23 and the second groove 41, thereby improving the stability of the drawer 4.

[0142] Of course, in some embodiments, the first height difference of the first groove 23 can have an error with the second height difference of the second groove 41, and the error range can be [0.5mm, 1mm]. In this way, the fit of the first groove 23 and the first groove 23 is ensured.

[0143] In some embodiments, the inclination angle of the first groove 23 can be [2°, 10°], for example, the inclination angle of the first groove 23 can be 2°, 4°, 5°, 8°, 10°, etc. The inclination angle of the second groove 41 can be [2°, 10°]. For example, the inclination angle of the second groove 41 can be 2°, 4°, 5°, 8°, 10°, etc. In this way, the inclination angle of the first groove 23 and the second groove 41 is further limited in combination with the above height difference, which can further limit the stability of the drawer 4.

[0144] In some embodiments, the front end of the first groove 23 is open, the rear end of the first groove 23 is closed, and the first roller 22 is detachably connected to the inner side of the guide rail body 21.

[0145] It can be understood that, in the case of using the drawer 4 as a roller drawer, due to the front end opening and the rear end closure of the first groove 23, after the drawer 4 is pushed into the storage compartment 11 so that the second roller 42 moves to the rear end of the first groove 23, the rear end of the first groove 23 can limit the drawer 4 from continuing to move backward, thereby avoiding the drawer 4 from hitting the inner wall of the storage compartment 11. Thus, by setting the closed rear end of the first groove 23, the function of limiting the drawer 4 is achieved.

[0146] In some embodiments, the refrigerator 1000 further comprises a shock-absorbing part 5 arranged at the rear end of the first groove 23. The shock-absorbing part 5 can play the role of buffering and shock-absorbing when the second roller 42 collides with the rear end of the first groove 23. In addition, after the second roller 42 moves to the rear end of the first groove 23, the second roller 42 collides with the shock-absorbing part 5, which can also avoid damage to the second roller 42 or the guide rail body 21 after long-term use, thereby protecting the second roller 42 or the guide rail body 21.

[0147] In some embodiments, the shock-absorbing part 5 can be a rubber pad or a silica gel pad, etc., which can play the role of buffering and protection.

[0148] In some embodiments, the guide rail assembly 2 further comprises a first guide strip arranged on the inner side of the guide rail body 21 and extending in the front-rear direction.

[0149] The guide rail assembly 2 further comprises a second guide strip arranged on the inner side of the guide rail body 21 and extending in the front-rear direction. The first guide strip is arranged on one side of the second guide strip close to the top of the cabinet 1. The first groove 23 is formed between the first guide strip and the second guide strip for the second roller 42 of the drawer 4 to stably roll in the first groove 23.

[0150] In some embodiments, the front end of the first guide strip is provided with an inclined guide surface to facilitate the second roller 42 to slide into the first groove 23, thereby facilitating the assembly of the drawer 4.

[0151] In some embodiments, in the case of using the drawer 4 as a roller drawer, in the process of pushing the drawer 4 into the storage compartment 11, to avoid the connecting part 43 of the drawer 4 from colliding with the first guide strip or the second guide strip of the guide rail assembly 2, the connecting part 43 can enter the first groove 23 along with the second roller 42. Compared with the scheme of arranging the connecting part 43 and the first guide strip or the second guide strip in parallel in the horizontal direction, the above arrangement can improve the compactness of the structure of the refrigerator 1000, thereby saving the storage space in the storage compartment 11.

[0152] In summary, compared with the related art, the refrigerator 1000 provided by some embodiments of the present disclosure facilitates switching between the roller drawer and the slide rail drawer as needed, without the need to separately design structures and components for the slide rail drawer and the roller drawer, thereby reducing the number of components and thus reducing costs, improving production efficiency, and improving the applicability of the drawer 4.

[0153] In some embodiments, the slide rail body 31 includes a fixed portion arranged close to the guide rail body 21 and fixedly connected with the guide rail body 21. Referring to FIG. 11, the first hole 311, the second hole 312, and the bayonet 313 can be arranged on the fixed portion, so that the fixed portion is fixedly connected with the fixed guide rail 21 through cooperation of the second hole 312 with the clamping portion 24 and cooperation of the bayonet 313 with the buckle 26.

[0154] The slide rail body 31 further includes a sliding portion that can slide relative to the fixed portion in the front-rear direction. The first mounting plate 33 and the second mounting plate 34 can be arranged on the sliding portion, and the drawer 4 is detachably connected with the sliding portion through the first mounting plate 33 and the second mounting plate 34, so as to move relative to the fixed portion in the front-rear direction through the sliding portion. In this way, the slide rail type connection of the drawer 4 with the cabinet 1 is achieved.

[0155] It should be noted that the connection mode of the sliding portion and the fixed portion can refer to the drawer slide rail in the related art, and the present disclosure will not be described here.

[0156] It should be noted that any one of the technical solutions disclosed in the present disclosure can solve one or more of the above technical problems and achieve certain disclosed purposes to some extent; multiple technical disclosures can be combined into one overall scheme to solve one or more of the above technical problems and achieve certain disclosed purposes; or part of the technical disclosures can be combined into one overall scheme, while the related art and degraded schemes are used, but the degraded trend can be compensated by the technical disclosure means, and the overall technical problems and certain disclosed purposes are solved to some extent; each technical disclosure is combined into a complete technical scheme, which constitutes an organic and indivisible overall scheme, and solves the technical problems and achieves certain disclosed purposes.

[0157] Any technical disclosure in the present disclosure, and the recombination of multiple technical disclosures can form a complete technical scheme, and can solve one or more of the above technical problems to achieve the disclosed purposes, which belongs to the content of the present disclosure and is directly and without doubt determined according to the content of the present disclosure.
