Fig. 2 is a schematic view of an external structure of a refrigeration base 200 according to an embodiment of the present application, fig. 3 is a schematic view of an internal structure of the refrigeration base 200 according to an embodiment of the present application, and fig. 4 is a schematic view of a positional relationship of components in a refrigeration system according to an embodiment of the present application.
Referring to fig. 2 to 4, in particular, the refrigeration base 200 may include a base 210 and a refrigeration system, wherein a mounting compartment is formed in the base 210, and the refrigeration system is disposed in the mounting compartment. The refrigeration system comprises a compressor 220, a condenser 230, an evaporator 240 and a fan assembly 250, wherein a refrigerant circulation loop is formed among the compressor 220, the condenser 230 and the evaporator 240, an air supply port 211 is formed at a position of the base 210 corresponding to the fan assembly 250, and an air return port 212 is formed at a position corresponding to the evaporator 240.
According to the refrigeration base 200 of the embodiment of the application, the evaporator 240 and the fan assembly 250 in the refrigeration system do not occupy the storage space of the box 100 any more by arranging the refrigeration system in the base 210 as a whole, which is beneficial to saving the space cost of the box 100. Besides, when the refrigeration system fails, maintenance staff can conveniently carry out independent maintenance on the refrigeration system, the maintenance difficulty is reduced, and the maintenance efficiency is improved.
The installation compartment may be partitioned into a first space 214 and a second space 215, the first space 214 and the second space 215 being independent spaces, wherein the compressor 220 and the condenser 230 are located in the first space 214, and the evaporator 240 and the fan assembly 250 are located in the second space 215. By disposing the condenser 230 and the evaporator 240 in the first space 214 and the second space 215, respectively, the air near the evaporator 240 and the air near the condenser 230 can be prevented from being mixed, and the refrigerating effect of the refrigerating system is ensured.
In an alternative embodiment, the first space 214 is provided with a first mounting box 261, the compressor 220 and the condenser 230 are disposed in the first mounting box 261 along a length direction of the first mounting box 261, the second space 215 is provided with a second mounting box 262, the evaporator 240 and the fan assembly 250 are disposed in the second mounting box 262 along a length direction of the second mounting box 262, and the second mounting box 262 is provided with openings at positions corresponding to the supply and return air inlets 211 and 212. It should be noted that the periphery of each opening should extend upward to the periphery of its corresponding air supply port 211 or return port 212, so as to prevent air flow from leaking during the air supply or return process.
Because the fan assembly 250 and the evaporator 240 are disposed in the second mounting box 262 together, the fan assembly 250 can reduce the air pressure on one side of the evaporator 240 in the second mounting box 262 during the air supply process, so that the air in the storage compartment adjacent to the air return port 212 can flow back into the second mounting box 262 more quickly, thereby accelerating the circulating flow speed of the air flow and being beneficial to realizing the rapid refrigeration of the storage compartment.
In consideration of the fact that the evaporator 240 may be frosted during operation and more frosted water generated during the frosting process may be accumulated in the second tank 100, in order to solve the problem, a connection pipe 263 is provided between the first mounting tank 261 and the second mounting tank 262, fig. 5 is a schematic view of a connection position of the connection pipe 263 according to an embodiment of the present application, and referring to fig. 5, the connection pipe 263 is disposed obliquely downward from one end adjacent to the second mounting tank 262 to one end adjacent to the first mounting tank 261, so that the frosted water generated during the frosting process flows into the first mounting tank 261 from the second mounting tank 262 in time via the connection pipe 263 and is finally evaporated in a high temperature environment near the condenser 230.
In an alternative embodiment, the bottom of the second mounting case 262 may be padded to a height such that the bottom surface of the second mounting case 262 is higher than the bottom surface of the first mounting case 261, and both ends of the connection pipe 263 are connected to the bottom regions of the sidewalls of the first and second mounting cases 261 and 262, respectively. In this way, the connecting tube 263 can be inclined downward from the end adjacent to the second mounting box 262 to the end adjacent to the first mounting box 261, so that the defrosting water in the second mounting box 262 can flow into the first mounting box 261.
Blower assembly 250 may include centrifugal blower 251 and scroll 252, scroll 252 covering centrifugal blower 251 with its airflow outlet extending to air supply 211. Of course, other types of fans, such as axial fans, may be used with fan assembly 250, as the application is not limited in this regard.
In this embodiment, the air supply port 211 and the air return port 212 are elongated ports along the length direction perpendicular to the second mounting box 262, so as to ensure that the air supply area of the air supply port 211 and the air return area of the air return port 212 are sufficiently large as much as possible, avoid blocking the airflow due to the small area of the air supply port 211 or the air return port 212, and ensure the smoothness of the airflow.
Further, the distance between the supply air inlet 211 and the return air inlet 212 should not be less than 3/4 of the length of the second mounting box 262. The bottom of the box 100 is also provided with openings corresponding to the air supply port 211 and the air return port 212, and the distance between the air inlet and the air return port 212 actually determines the size of the circulation path of the air flow in the storage compartment, so that in order to ensure that the internal temperature of the refrigerated storage compartment is uniform, it is reasonable to control the distance between the air supply port 211 and the air return port 212 to be not less than 3/4 of the length of the second mounting box 262.
It should be noted that, the base 210 of the refrigeration base 200 is further provided with an energizing interface 213, and when the case 100 is placed on the refrigeration base 200, the circuit inside the case 100 and the circuit inside the refrigeration base 200 can be conducted through the energizing interface 213.
According to any optional embodiment or a combination of multiple optional embodiments, the following beneficial effects can be achieved according to the embodiment of the application:
according to the refrigerator 10 and the refrigeration base 200 thereof in the embodiment of the application, the evaporator 240 and the fan assembly 250 in the refrigeration system do not occupy the storage space of the refrigerator 100 any more by arranging the refrigeration system in the base 210 as a whole, which is beneficial to saving the space cost of the refrigerator 100. Besides, when the refrigeration system fails, maintenance staff can conveniently carry out independent maintenance on the refrigeration system, the maintenance difficulty is reduced, and the maintenance efficiency is improved.
Further, in the refrigerator 10 and the refrigeration base 200 thereof according to the embodiment of the application, the connecting pipe 263 is disposed between the first mounting box 261 and the second mounting box 262, and the connecting pipe 263 is disposed obliquely downward from one end adjacent to the second mounting box 262 to one end adjacent to the first mounting box 261, so that the defrosting water generated in the defrosting process flows into the first mounting box 261 from the second mounting box 262 through the connecting pipe 263 in time and is finally evaporated in the high temperature environment near the condenser 230.
By now it should be appreciated by those skilled in the art that while a number of exemplary embodiments of the application have been shown and described herein in detail, many other variations or modifications of the application consistent with the principles of the application may be directly ascertained or inferred from the present disclosure without departing from the spirit and scope of the application.
