Description

refrigerator

technical field

The utility model relates to a refrigerator.

Background technique

Generally, a refrigerator includes a door, and the door includes a door panel and a door cover connected to one end of the door panel.

In order to facilitate the user to open the door, a known solution is to set a handle groove at the front of the door cover, and the user can put his hand into the handle groove and hold a handle to apply force to open or close the door. In some solutions, the handshake portion of the handle groove is lower than the inner edge of the handle groove opposite to it, so that the hand can be inserted into the handle groove. Therefore, the assembling method of the door cover and the door panel is relatively complicated. For example, the door cover includes a slope part inclined downward and a side part connected with the slope part, and the slope part arranged obliquely is used to form a handle groove. How to design door covers and door panels that are easy to manufacture and assemble is a technical problem faced by those skilled in the art.

Utility model content

The problem solved by the utility model is to overcome at least one of the technical problems above, and it is possible to provide a door for refrigerators that is easy to manufacture and assemble.

In order to solve the above problems, the utility model provides a refrigerator. The refrigerator includes: a door, the door includes a door panel and a door cover connected to one end of the door panel, the door panel includes a front panel and a side panel bent backward from the front panel, and the door cover includes a downwardly inclined A slope portion and a side portion connected to the slope portion; the side portion connects the entire slope portion at least along the upper end to the lower end of the slope portion, and the side portion includes a second part for inserting the side plate along the height direction a slot.

Since the side portion connects the entire slope portion from the upper end to the lower end of the slope portion, the side plate of the door panel can be inserted into the first slot along the height direction of the door panel to realize manufacture and assembly. It is expected that the side plate does not need to form a slope flange, and the manufacturing process is simple and convenient. The side panel can be directly inserted into the side part to realize the assembly of the side panel and the door cover. The assembly method is simple, and the appearance of the door and the refrigerator is simple.

Moreover, there is no connection gap without direct connection between the side plate and the slope portion, which can prevent the foam material inside the door cover from leaking, and the door cover can have a good sealing effect.

At the same time, it can be noticed that the side plate is inserted into the first slot, and the side plate and the side wall of the first slot form a face-to-face fit, which can better achieve a sealing effect and better prevent leakage of the foaming material.

Optionally, the side portion includes a front side portion connecting at least part of the slope portion along the lower end to the upper end of the slope portion, and the first slot includes a first groove portion provided on the front side portion, The side plate includes an inclined end edge inserted into the first groove portion.

For example, the side portion may only include a front side portion near the lower end of the slope portion to receive the inclined end edge of the side plate. The inclined end edge is close to the slope portion and slopes downward corresponding to the slope portion. For the groove portion, the inclined end edge is directly inserted into the first groove portion along the height direction, without forming a slope flanging matched with the slope portion as in the prior art. This simplifies the manufacturing process, making the assembly process of the door cover and door panel easier, and the overall appearance of the door is cleaner.

Optionally, the side portion includes an upper side portion connecting the slope portion and the front side portion along the upper end to the lower end of the slope portion, and the first slot includes a A second groove connected to the first groove, the side plate includes an upper edge inserted into the second groove along the height direction.

The lower end edges of the side parts are distributed in steps and are not in the same horizontal plane. The upper end edge of the side plate is inserted into the second groove of the first slot and the inclined end edge is inserted into the first groove, which is convenient for assembly and simple process.

Optionally, the side portion includes a straight lower end edge, the lower end edge is flush with the lower end of the slope portion along the height direction, and the first slot is formed on the lower end edge.

The lower end edge of the side part is flush with the lower end of the slope part along the height direction, and the upper end edge and the inclined end edge of the side plate are all inserted into the first slot along the height direction of the door panel, especially the inclined end edge and the slope part of the door cover have no gap. connection, so there is no need to form inclined flanges, which facilitates the manufacturing process and facilitates the assembly process.

Optionally, the side portion includes an extension portion that crosses the lower end of the slope portion downward along the height direction, and the first slot is formed in the extension portion.

At this time, the side plate is inserted into the first slot in the extension portion, and it is expected that the side plate may not pass over the lower end of the slope portion upward in the height direction, and the side plate may not include an inclined end edge. This can solve the problem of manufacturing inconvenience caused by the slanted edge, and can also make the appearance of the door and the refrigerator more clean, and the side with a larger surface area can make the door cover have a better sealing effect.

Optionally, the first slot extends along the entire width of the side portion in the front-rear direction. The side panel of the door panel has a larger contact area with the first slot, and the installation between the door panel and the door cover can be firmer.

Optionally, the upper edges of the side plates are located in the same horizontal plane. This can simplify the manufacturing process of the side panels, facilitate the manufacture of the side panels, and improve production efficiency.

Optionally, upper end edges of at least a part of the side panel and the front panel are located in the same horizontal plane. For example, the upper edge of the side panel and the upper edge of the front panel are located in the same horizontal plane, which can simplify the manufacturing process of the entire door panel and facilitate the manufacture of the door panel.

Optionally, the door cover has a horizontal part, one end of the horizontal part is connected to the slope part, the upper end edge of the front plate has a flange bent backward, and the horizontal part has A second slot that receives the flange. Due to the horizontal part, the flanging should be bent backward by 90°, which is easy to form and the bending angle is easy to control.
