One side of cam body 36 is formed with resilient guiding device 38.This resilient guiding device 38 can strain from the characteristic of shape.Be formed with arrangement portion 38 ' on the resilient guiding device 38, when door 24,24 ' is in closed condition, settle guide finger 33.When this guide finger 33 is placed in arrangement portion 38 ', the resilient guiding device 38 that is under the elastic deformation will provide active force, cause the front end packing ring 28 ' of door main body 26 front ends to produce the trend of being close to the packing ring 28 ' of opposite side door main body 26.
Front end one side along resilient guiding device 38 is formed with guide part 39.Acting as of this guide part 39: at open initial stage of door main body 26 with close latter stage the position of locating hinge pin 32 in pan 29.In addition, the side with the corresponding cam body 36 of the front end of resilient guiding device 38 is formed with detent 40.The effect of this detent 40 is: when door main body 26 was done the switching motion, constraint resilient guiding device 38 made the strain of resilient guiding device 38 not exceed certain limit.
Be formed with gathering sill 42 on the cam body 36.The effect of this gathering sill 42 is: guide moving of guide finger 33.In addition, the opening direction of the inlet of gathering sill 42 is outsides of cam body 36, also is the back side direction of door main body 26, still is the front direction of refrigerator main body 20 simultaneously.The inlet of gathering sill 42 presents wide more more laterally shape.The width of this inlet should form corresponding to the length of pan 29.Especially, in inlet, a side is formed with inserts guide part 42 '.The effect of this insertion guide part 42 ' is: no matter joint pin 32 is in any position of pan 29, and guide finger 33 is entered in the gathering sill 42.The inboard part of gathering sill 42 will be formed by the guide part 39 and the arrangement portion 38 ' of resilient guiding device 38.
In gathering sill 42, the curvature of the part that is made of resilient guiding device 38 is different from the curvature of remainder.Be as the criterion with Fig. 2, the part from the inlet of gathering sill 42 to resilient guiding device before 38, its curvature forms: when joint pin 32 is positioned at the right-hand end of pan 29, allow joint pin 32 become the center of rotation of door main body 26.This part is called rotates guide part 43.
Then, in the gathering sill 42, be mobile guide portion 43 ' corresponding to the part of resilient guiding device 38.The structure optimum state of this mobile guide portion 43 ' is to have the big slightly inclination angle, inclination angle that forms than pan 29.Mobile guide portion 43 ' act as: with the guide part 39 of resilient guiding device 38 position of locating hinge pin 32 together.
In addition, in the present embodiment, cam body 36 is that benchmark is divided into two parts formation with gathering sill 42.For whole this cam body 36 of integral production, in gathering sill 42, form brace 45.Acting as of this brace 45: the cam body 36 that interconnects both sides.The thickness of this brace 45 is than the thin thickness of cam body 36.
Below, to possessing the effect of the device for opening/closing door of the refrigerator of the present invention of formation as mentioned above, be described in detail.
Fig. 5 a to Fig. 5 d for the switching procedural order of the door 24,24 ' in the device for opening/closing door that shows refrigerator of the present invention working state figure.Now only be as the criterion and describe with the door 24 in refrigerator main body 20 left sides.
At first, show door 24, the 24 ' state that is in when closing among Fig. 5 a.Under above-mentioned state, guide finger 33 will be placed in the arrangement portion 38 ' of resilient guiding device 38.At this moment, because the effect of the elastic force of resilient guiding device 38, door main body 26 will be subjected to the power of its leading section towards the leading section direction of relative side door 24 '.At this moment, joint pin 32 will be positioned at the leftmost side of pan 29.
Under above-mentioned state, the user holds door handle 27 and draws to the opposite direction one of refrigerator, and door main body 26 will be that rotate at the center with pan 29.But at the open initial stage, guide finger 33 will relatively move along the mobile guide portion 43 ' of gathering sill 42.That is, owing to the power that puts on the door main body 26, the front end of resilient guiding device 38 will be close on the detent 40, and guide finger 33 will relatively move along guide part 39.Therefore, joint pin 32 also will move along pan 29.Described state is with the same shown in Fig. 5 b.
Because described operation, door main body 26 will towards separate from front end relative to the door main body 26 of side door 24 ' (away from) direction move.Therefore, front end packing ring 28 ' is separated from each other beginning.
Shown in Fig. 5 c, if guide finger 33 breaks away from mobile guide portion 43 ', rotate guide part 43 and enter into, joint pin 32 will move to the rightmost side of pan 29.To Fig. 5 c state, the distance that door main body 26 moves is exactly the distance that joint pin 32 moves along pan 29 from the state of Fig. 5 a.The front end packing ring 28 ' of the door 24 of Fig. 5 c separates with the front end packing ring 28 ' of door 24 ', and packing ring 28 separates from the front of refrigerator main body 20, and door main body 26 begins to rotate simultaneously.
Then, shown in Fig. 5 d, the state of door 24 is: joint pin 32 is positioned at the rightmost side of pan 29, and guide finger 33 will be along rotation guide part 43 guiding of gathering sill 42.Then, if door 24 continues to open, guide finger 33 will break away from gathering sill 42, and door 24 is that rotate at the center with joint pin 32 just.
The pass closed procedure of door 24 will be described in addition, below.When door 24 was opened, guide finger 33 can be by gathering sill 42 guiding, and therefore, joint pin 32 can arbitrarily move in pan 29.But, in the process of closing door 24,, the insertion guide part 42 ' that guide finger 33 is entered the mouth by gathering sill 42 rotates guide part 43 if being guided and enter, and joint pin 32 will move to the rightmost side of pan 29.At this moment, after joint pin 32 will move to the rightmost side of pan 29, guide finger 33 will be guided by rotating guide part 43, and door 24 also rotates with corresponding track simultaneously.
Then, if enter mobile guide portion 43 ' behind the guide finger 33 contact guide parts 39, joint pin 32 will move to the left side of pan 29.At this moment, because the elastic force of resilient guiding device 38, door 24 will be pressed against door 24 ' side.Therefore, the front end packing ring 28 ' that is arranged on door main body 26 front ends can be close on the front end packing ring 28 ' of door 24 '.Cling at this door main body 26 in the middle of the process of front of refrigerator main body 20, door main body 26 along the incline direction of the incline direction of pan 29 and mobile guide portion 43 ' near refrigerator main body 20.Therefore, when front end packing ring 28 ' is close to mutually, will can the phase mutual friction.
It is emphasized that in the total design scope of the present invention those skilled in the art can make amendment and propose various embodiment the present invention.Therefore, the scope of the present invention should be as the criterion with claims and make an explanation.
For example, guide finger 33 is not must be formed on the hinge plate 31, but can be formed on the miscellaneous part.
Then, the shape of elastic cam 35 has more than and is confined to present embodiment, but can form with different shapes.And, can be after forming certain mounting groove on the door main body 26, fixedly elastic cam 35.In addition, elastic cam 35 can be integrally formed on the finial above the door main body 26.
In the structure that a storage space is opened and closed with an opposite house in the present invention, the not phase mutual friction of front end packing ring, and directly be close to or separate.Therefore, the durability of front end packing ring will further improve.
In addition, when an opposite house is closed, resilient guiding device will provide elastic force towards the opposed facing direction of the front end of door, therefore can reduce to hold in front of the door the cooling gas leakage phenomenon to greatest extent.
