The rotation axis of the door lock assembly 300 is perpendicular to the ice making compartment door body 200. When the refrigerator door assembly 1 locks and unlocks the ice making chamber door body 200, the rotation of the door lock assembly 300 cannot interfere with articles and a storage rack in the refrigerator chamber, so that the reasonable layout of the refrigerator chamber is favorably realized.
Further, in some embodiments of the present invention, the ice making compartment door 200 includes a rotating shaft 201, and the ice making compartment door 200 is rotatably disposed on the refrigerator door 100 by the rotating shaft 201. The ice making compartment door 200 further includes a sealing member 203. The ice making compartment 101 is sealed by the sealing member 203 when the ice making compartment door 200 is closed. Further, cold air vents 103a, 103b are provided in the ice making compartment 101. Further, the cold air vents 103a, 103b are disposed near the rotary shaft 201. The door lock assembly 300 is disposed at a side of the ice making chamber door 200 away from the cold air vents 103a and 103 b. Thus, the user is less susceptible to the low-temperature gas blown out from the cool air ports 103a and 103b in the process of opening and closing the ice making compartment door body 200.
Further, referring to fig. 2 and 3, in some embodiments of the present invention, the door lock assembly 300 includes a locking member 301 and an elastic member 303 connected to the locking member 301. Further, an elastic member 303 connects the locking member 301 and the ice making compartment door 200. The locking member 301 is rotatable between a locked position and an unlocked position. The elastic member 303 serves to generate an elastic force to maintain the locking member 301 at the locking position. Further, in some embodiments of the present invention, the elastic member 303 is a torsion spring, one end of the torsion spring is connected to the locking member 301, and the other end of the torsion spring is connected to the ice making compartment door 200.
Further, referring to fig. 3-7, in some embodiments of the invention, the locking element 301 includes a sliding surface 305. Further, the locking member 301 includes a locking key 307. A sliding surface 305 is formed on one side of the lock key 307. Further, a sliding surface 305 is formed on a side of the lock key 307 remote from the ice making compartment door body. A locking surface 309 is formed on a side of the locking key 307 close to the ice making compartment door 200.
Further, referring to fig. 5, in some embodiments of the present invention, the locking member 301 includes a main body portion 311, and the locking key 307 protrudes from the main body portion 311. The body 311 has a columnar shape. Further, the locking member 301 includes a plurality of locking keys 307. The plurality of locking keys 307 are arranged at even intervals in the circumferential direction of the main body portion 311. Further, the locking member 301 further includes a flange portion 313.

Further, in some embodiments of the present invention, the refrigerator door 100 includes a locking portion 205. The latching portion 205 includes a mating surface 209. The locking portion 205 is disposed opposite the door lock assembly 200. The latch portion 205 also includes a stop surface 207. The stop surface 207 and the mating surface 209 are disposed opposite one another.
The mating surface 209 presses the sliding surface 305 during the closing of the ice making compartment door 200 to rotate the locking member 301 against the elastic force of the elastic member 303. With such arrangement, in the process of closing the ice making chamber door body 200, the locking piece 301 moves towards the refrigerator door body 100, the thrust force received when the ice making chamber door body is closed is transmitted between the matching surface 209 and the sliding surface 305, and the matching surface 209 presses the sliding surface 305 to enable the locking piece 301 to rotate, so that the automatic locking of the door lock assembly 300 is realized. Further, in some embodiments of the present invention, the latching portion 205 further includes a notch 206. The lock key 307 passes through the lock portion 205 through the notch 206. After the locking key 307 passes through the locking portion 205, the locking member 301 is rotated by the elastic force of the elastic member 303. After the locking piece 301 is rotated by a certain angle, the locking surface 309 and the stop surface 207 cooperate to lock the ice making compartment door 200 to the refrigerator door 100. Thus, the automatic locking of the door lock assembly 300 is realized, and the operation of a user is convenient.
Further, in some embodiments of the present invention, the door lock assembly 300 further includes a grip portion 317. The grip 317 is fixedly connected to the locking member 301. The ice making compartment door 200 is provided with a recess 211. The holding portion 317 is disposed in the recess 211. So set up, can avoid holding portion 317 rotation ground in-process article or supporter in the refrigerator cavity to take place to interfere. The recess 211 is provided with an escape space 213 and a stopper portion 215. The stopper portion 215 is used to stop the grip portion 317 outside the escape space 213. The provision of the escape space 213 facilitates the user to operate the grip 317 when the ice making compartment door 200 needs to be opened.
