the judging step is also used for judging the size relationship between the timing time and a second preset time (preferably 2 min);
the control step is further used for controlling the fan component to stop when the timing time is greater than a second preset time, controlling the evaporator to enter dripping time, controlling the timer to zero, and controlling the rotating motor to rotate until the sealing element structure 331 is opposite to the vent hole 32 so as to seal the vent hole 32; and when the timing time is less than or equal to a second preset time, continuously controlling the fan component to rotate reversely.
The reverse rotation is timed, the relation between the reverse rotation and the second preset time is judged, when the timed time is more than the second preset time, the hot air in the evaporation cavity is basically exhausted, the fan is controlled to stop to close the air exhausted from the evaporation cavity to the outside of the refrigerator, the evaporator is controlled to enter the dripping time, the evaporator drips condensed water, and the sealing element structure is controlled to be opposite to the vent hole, so that the air in the evaporation cavity is effectively sealed in a sealing mode, and the cold air in the interior is prevented from leaking outside; and when the timing time is less than or equal to the second preset time, the high-temperature gas in the evaporation cavity is not completely discharged (or does not meet the requirement), and the fan component is controlled to continuously rotate in the reverse direction at the moment so as to discharge the gas in the evaporation cavity to the outside.
The present disclosure also provides a refrigerator including the refrigerator defrosting device of any one of the above.
When the structure of the present disclosure is installed, a ventilation opening is formed on the side plate or the back plate of the refrigerator, and the ventilation opening corresponds to the ventilation hole 32 in the structural member. When the accumulated defrosting time of the refrigerator reaches, the refrigerator enters defrosting, at the moment, the air inlet of the evaporator and the compartment air return inlet are closed, and hot air can be prevented from entering the refrigerating and freezing compartment in the subsequent process after the two air inlets are closed. The rotary motor is activated to rotate the fan member 332 to position the vent 32 opposite, thereby creating a path for communication between the evaporation chamber and the environment. The fan of the fan member 332 is activated to rotate clockwise to introduce high temperature air in the environment into the evaporation chamber to blow toward the evaporator. The existence of this process can replace the defrosting process of returning air, and traditional back air defrosting can make the air of walk-in room get into the freezer, is unfavorable for the maintenance of freezer temperature, and the temperature of freezer in the defrosting process can be avoided effectively to this process rising. The electric heating device is started after the process is carried out for 10min, and as the fan component 332 is in the working state at the moment, the heat generated by the defrosting heater can be effectively blown to the evaporator by the fan in the fan component 332, and as the heat exchange effect of forced convection is better than that of natural convection, the heat generated by electric heating can be better absorbed by the evaporator fins, and the defrosting process can be completed more quickly. Judging whether the evaporator reaches a defrosting exit condition, and turning off the electric heating device after the evaporator reaches the defrosting exit condition. Therefore, the fan in the fan member 332 is rotated reversely to discharge the high-temperature air in the evaporation cavity to the environment, and the process is operated for about 2 min. When the water drops, the sealing element structure 331 rotates to the position opposite to the vent 32 by starting the rotating motor, and the problem of cold leakage in the refrigerating process of the refrigerator can be effectively prevented due to the good heat preservation performance of the sealing element.
The above description is only exemplary of the present disclosure and should not be taken as limiting the disclosure, as any modification, equivalent replacement, or improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present disclosure should be included in the scope of the present disclosure. The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, and it should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several modifications and variations can be made without departing from the technical principle of the present disclosure, and these modifications and variations should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present disclosure.
