Followingly the rack assembly 100 that is used for refrigerator 200 refrigerating chambers 300 according to the embodiment of the invention is described, the food that said rack assembly 100 is used to place or hanging support need refrigerate with reference to figure 1-Fig. 4.
The rack assembly 100 that is used for refrigerator 200 refrigerating chambers 300 according to first aspect present invention embodiment; Comprise: fixture 1, pivotal part 2 and shelf 3; Wherein fixture 1 is located on the sidewall 310 of refrigerating chamber 300, and pivotal part 2 is located on the fixture 1 pivotly, and shelf 3 is connected with pivotal part 2 with the sidewall 310 with respect to refrigerating chamber 300 and can between expanded position (as shown in Figure 1) and folding position (as shown in Figure 2), pivots; Wherein shelf 3 is with respect to sidewall 310 shelf 3 approximate horizontal when the expanded position; That is to say that shelf 3 and sidewall 310 roughly become 90 degree angles, so conveniently on shelf 3, place food, as shown in Figure 1; Shelf 3 conforms on the sidewall 310 of refrigerating chamber 300 with respect to sidewall 310 shelf 3 when the folding position; The part storage spaces that can discharge in the refrigerating chamber 300 this moment are used to deposit bigger food, also can be on the hook 6 of shelf 3 hanging support food, like Fig. 2-shown in Figure 3.
The rack assembly 100 that is used for refrigerator 200 refrigerating chambers 300 according to the embodiment of the invention; Have the upset folder function, can change the storage space in the refrigerating chamber 300 flexibly, be about to shelf 3 flexible conversion between expanded position and folding position according to actual conditions; Easy and simple to handle; Space availability ratio is high, and practicality is good, food that simultaneously also can hanging support need refrigerate on the hook 6 of shelf 3 when shelf 3 is in the folding position; Farthest satisfy consumer's instructions for use, embodied the human oriented design of refrigerator 200 shelves 3 structures.
In one embodiment of the invention, fixture 1 is an axle sleeve, and pivotal part 2 is the bearing pin that can cooperate with axle sleeve 1.Further, like Fig. 1-shown in Figure 4, axle sleeve 1 is two, and two axle sleeves 1 are located at along fore-and-aft direction on the right side wall of refrigerating chamber 300, and bearing pin 2 is that two and two bearing pins 2 are located on the shelf 3 with two axle sleeves 1 respectively correspondingly.Certainly, the present invention is not limited to this, and two axle sleeves 1 also can be located on the left side wall of refrigerating chamber 300 along fore-and-aft direction.Thus; Shelf 3 can pivot between expanded position and folding position with respect to sidewall 310; The user can change the state of shelf 3 according to actual operating position, makes full use of the storage space in refrigerator 200 refrigerating chambers 300, in addition; Axle sleeve 1 cooperates with bearing pin 2 can also make shelf 3 when expanded position, be in stable state, can deposit food more thereby make on the shelf 3.
In an example of the present invention, rack assembly 100 also comprises fixation kit 4, and wherein shelf 3 is used for fixing shelf 3 with respect to sidewall 310 fixation kit 4 when the folding position.Alternatively, fixation kit 4 comprises magnet 41 and iron block 42, and wherein magnet 41 is located on the sidewall 310 of refrigerating chamber 300 and iron block 42 is located on the shelf 3 accordingly.Thus, the sucking action through magnet 41 and iron block 42 makes shelf 3 when the folding position, can be in stable state, can not touch, pull and support because of accident or self gravitation and launching voluntarily, and practicality is good.Certainly, the present invention is not limited to this, and iron block 42 also can be located on the sidewall 310 and magnet 41 is located on the shelf 3 accordingly, perhaps is respectively equipped with the magnet that attracts each other on sidewall 310 and the shelf 3, schemes not shown.
Like Fig. 2-shown in Figure 3, rack assembly 100 also comprises a plurality of reinforcements 5, and a plurality of strong muscle 5 is turned up the soil along fore-and-aft direction at interval is located on the bottom surface of shelf 3.Alternatively; Each reinforcement 5 is provided with at least one hook 6; Wherein the one of ordinary skilled in the art it is understandable that, the quantity of reinforcement 5 and hook 6 can be set, according to the size of rack assembly 100 appearance and sizes for example in the example of Fig. 2-Fig. 3; The bottom surface of rack assembly 100 is provided with two reinforcements 5, and each reinforcement 5 is provided with two hooks 6.Thus, increased the intensity of shelf 3 on the one hand, made shelf 3 have bearing capacity better; Be difficult for deformed damaged; When shelf 3 is in the folding position, can also link up with the food that hanging support need refrigerate on 6 on the other hand, make full use of the storage space in the refrigerator 200.
In another embodiment of the present invention, shelf 3 is that two and two shelves 3 are located at respectively on the left side wall and right side wall of refrigerating chamber 300 pivotly, and wherein two shelves 3 become rectangle respectively substantially, and when two shelves 3 are positioned at expanded position, can cooperatively interact.That is to say that when two shelves 3 were positioned at expanded position simultaneously, two shelves 3 formed a shelf, promptly the parts (left and right side end face) of contact are roughly fitted in the middle of roughly concordant and two shelves 3 of the upper surface of two shelves 3.Thus, the practicality that has further improved rack assembly 100 is to satisfy consumer's different instructions for uses.
The rack assembly 100 that is used for refrigerator 200 refrigerating chambers 300 according to the embodiment of the invention; Can realize the adjustment of storage space in refrigerator 200 refrigerating chambers 300, easy to operate, adjustment flexibly; And also set up hook 6; But the food that hanging support need refrigerate has made full use of the space in the refrigerating chamber 300, and practicality is good.
Refrigerator 200 according to second aspect present invention embodiment; Comprise casing, door body and the rack assembly of describing according to the above embodiment of the present invention 100 that is used for refrigerator 200 refrigerating chambers 300; Wherein refrigerating chamber 300 is opened wide and limited in the front side of casing, and the door body rotatably is located at and is used to open and close said casing on the said casing.
For example constitute evaporimeter and compressor etc. and operation all is known according to other of the refrigerator of the embodiment of the invention for the one of ordinary skilled in the art, be not described in detail here.
