The cooling chamber 11 is arranged below the storage space, so that the storage space has a certain ground clearance, the user is prevented from bending down or squatting down to take and put articles, and the use experience of the user is improved. When the high-temperature and high-humidity gas in the refrigerating space approaches the ambient temperature under the circulating action of the air passage, condensation and even frosting may occur. The return air outlet 323 of the return air duct 32 communicated with the cooling chamber 11 may be blocked by frost, and the drainage inclined plane 33 and the heating wire 34 are arranged at the position to avoid the problem, so that the smoothness of the whole air path is effectively ensured, and the working reliability of the refrigerator 100 is improved.
Further, the refrigerator 100 of the present embodiment has a freezing liner 71 having a cooling chamber 11 and at least one freezing space located directly above the cooling chamber 11 defined therein. The evaporator cover 111 is disposed over the evaporator 21, and defines a cooling chamber 11 as a top wall together with the freezing chamber 71. The front end of the evaporator cover 111 is provided with a refrigerating air return port 112 communicating with the refrigerating space to return the refrigerating space to the cooling chamber 11. The refrigerating space adjacently arranged above the cooling chamber 11 is directly returned through the refrigerating air return port 112 at the front end of the evaporator cover plate 111, so that the space of the refrigerator 100 in the depth direction is prevented from being occupied by the return air duct arranged on the rear wall of the refrigerating space, and the storage volume is effectively increased. The return air duct 32 can avoid that the cooling chamber 11 can only return air to the refrigerating space when being arranged below the refrigerating space, but can not return air to the refrigerating space above the refrigerating space, thereby effectively ensuring the working reliability of the whole air path circulation of the refrigerator 100.
Still further, in the refrigerator 100 of the present embodiment, the cooling chamber 11 and the compressor compartment 12 are all disposed at the bottom of the box 10, and the compressor compartment 12 is disposed at the rear of the cooling chamber 11, so that the storage space above the compressor compartment 12 and the cooling chamber 11 is realized as a planar space, and the availability of the storage space is improved compared with a special-shaped space. In addition, the depth of the storage space is effectively reduced, so that the storage of the articles is changed from stacked storage to unfolded storage, the users can find the articles conveniently, the time and energy of the users are saved, and the use experience of the users is further improved. The condenser 25, the heat dissipation fan 24 and the compressor 23 are arranged in the compressor bin 12 in sequence along the transverse direction, the condenser 25 is arranged on one side close to the heat dissipation air inlet 121, the compressor 23 is arranged on one side close to the heat dissipation air outlet 122, the heat dissipation fan 24 is arranged between the condenser 25 and the compressor 23, so that the space is effectively utilized while the technical requirements are met, and the area occupying the storage space is reduced.
By now it should be appreciated by those skilled in the art that while a number of exemplary embodiments of the invention have been shown and described herein in detail, many other variations or modifications of the invention consistent with the principles of the invention may be directly ascertained or inferred from the present disclosure without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Accordingly, the scope of the present invention should be understood and deemed to cover all such other variations or modifications.
