In the description of the present invention, "a plurality" means two or more unless otherwise specified.

Referring to fig. 2 to 7, an embodiment of the present invention provides a refrigerator, including a refrigerator body 1 and a door body 2, wherein a storage chamber is formed inside the refrigerator body 1, the door body 2 is hinged at an opening of the storage chamber through a hinge shaft 4 and a hinge plate 5, the refrigerator further includes a driving assembly, and an ejection mechanism 33 and a rotation mechanism 36 which are driven by the driving assembly; the ejection mechanism 33 is used for ejecting the door body 2 to a preset angle; the rotating mechanism 36 is used for enabling the door body 3 to continue rotating after the ejection mechanism 33 ejects the door body 2 to open the storage chamber; the ejection mechanism 33 includes a push rod 332 disposed in the mounting seat 392, and an incomplete gear 331 and a reset member 336 in driving connection with the driving assembly. The incomplete gear 331 is provided with one or more teeth, the push rod 332 can slide between a contraction position and an extension position, the sliding direction of the push rod 332 is parallel to the thickness direction of the door body 2, the push rod 332 is provided with a transmission tooth 334 arranged along the extension direction of the push rod 332, the incomplete gear 331 is intermittently meshed with the push rod 332, and when the push rod 332 is at the extension position, the incomplete gear 331 is not meshed with the push rod 332 any more; the reset 336 is used to reset the push rod 332 when the push rod 332 reaches the extended position.

The embodiment of the utility model provides a refrigerator, adopt incomplete gear mechanism, the driving gear 334 that sets up along its extending direction has on the push rod 332, incomplete gear 331 and push rod 332 intermittent type meshing, drive assembly is connected with the transmission of incomplete gear 331, because the slip direction of push rod 332 is on a parallel with the thickness direction of the door body 2, and incomplete gear 331 and push rod 332 intermittent type meshing, therefore, incomplete gear 331 can drive push rod 332 and slide to the extension position by the contraction position, when push rod 332 is in the extension position, can open door body 2, after push rod 332 reachs the extension position, incomplete gear 331 continues to rotate, and no longer mesh with push rod 332, and simultaneously, piece 336 resets push rod 332. Therefore, after the door body 2 is pushed open, the push rod 332 is immediately retracted into the mounting seat 392, so that the push rod 332 is always positioned in the mounting seat 392 in the subsequent processes of opening and closing the door and is not easily damaged.

Referring to fig. 7 to 10, the returning member 336 has various realizable structures, for example, the returning member 336 may be an elastic rubber belt or a spring, and the returning member 336 is preferably a spring because the elastic rubber belt has a short service life, frequent installation is inconvenient, and the spring has a long service life. The spring extends and retracts in the same direction as the push rod 332 slides, one end of the spring is connected to the push rod 332, and the other end of the spring is connected to the mounting seat 392.

The spring has various mounting manners, for example, one end of the spring can be connected to the end face of the push rod 332, and the other end of the spring can be connected to the side wall of the mounting seat 392, and the structure has the disadvantages that the distance between the push rod 332 and the side wall of the mounting seat 392 needs to be larger than the free height of the spring, the structure is not compact enough, and the occupied space is large; as another example, referring to fig. 7, a wall surface of the mounting seat 392 may form a protrusion 337, the protrusion 337 is located on a sliding track of the push rod 332, a receiving cavity for receiving a spring is formed in the push rod 332, one end of the spring is connected to an inner wall of the receiving cavity, and the other end of the spring extends out of the receiving cavity and is connected to the protrusion 337; when the push rod 332 is in the retracted position, the spring and the protrusion 337 are located in the receiving cavity. The structure has the advantages that: neither the spring nor the protrusion 337 additionally occupies the inner space of the mounting seat 392, and the distance between the push rod 332 and the side wall of the mounting seat 392 is not limited, so that the structure is more compact, and therefore, the latter is preferred.

In order to obtain a suitable transmission ratio, the driving assembly may include a driving motor 31 and a transmission mechanism disposed on an output shaft of the driving motor 31, for example, the transmission mechanism may be a chain transmission, which has the disadvantages of loose structure and poor transmission stability; further, for example, the transmission mechanism may also be a gear transmission, the transmission gear 333 is in transmission connection with the incomplete gear 331, specifically, the transmission gear 333 may be fixed on the same transmission shaft as the incomplete gear 331, and this structure has the advantages of compact structure, smooth transmission and high transmission precision.

Referring to fig. 6, the incomplete gear 331 and the transmission gear 333 may be an integral piece or a separate piece, and if the incomplete gear 331 and the transmission gear 333 are separate pieces, the incomplete gear 331 and the transmission gear 333 need to be disassembled and assembled respectively during disassembly and assembly, which is inconvenient to disassemble and assemble, loose in structure and large in occupied space; if the incomplete gear 331 and the transmission gear 333 are an integral piece, the assembly and disassembly are convenient, the structure is compact, and the occupied space is small.

Because the push rod 332 is pulled to be reset by a spring, the inertia of the push rod 332 during resetting is large, and in order to prevent the push rod 332 from directly colliding with the mounting seat 392 and causing the damage to the push rod 332 or the mounting seat 392, a first limiting member 335 and a second limiting member 338 may be respectively disposed on the push rod 332 and inside the mounting seat 392, for example, referring to fig. 6 and 7, the first limiting member 335 may be disposed on an outer side surface of the push rod 332, and the second limiting member 338 may be correspondingly disposed on a side wall of the mounting seat 392, so that at the moment of resetting of the push rod 332, the first limiting member 335 and the second limiting member 338 are firstly contacted, and the push rod 332 does not collide with the mounting seat 392 and the damage to the push rod 332 or the mounting seat 392 can be.

Referring to fig. 7 to 10, when the push rod 332 extends, under the driving of the driving motor 31, as the incomplete gear 331 continuously rotates in the clockwise direction, the incomplete gear 331 may disengage from the driving teeth at the extreme edge of the push rod 332, the spring changes from the extended state to the free state, and pulls the push rod 332 to reset, since the incomplete gear 331 has disengaged from the driving teeth on the push rod 332, the incomplete gear 331 may continue to rotate in the clockwise direction, but is difficult to rotate in the counterclockwise direction, therefore, a first limiting member 335 and a second limiting member 338 made of elastic material may be used as limiting members, when the first limiting member 335 moves synchronously with the push rod 332 and the first limiting member 335 abuts against the second limiting member 338, if the incomplete gear 331 has a tendency to rotate in the counterclockwise direction, the push rod 332 may be pushed towards the direction of the incomplete gear 331 under the elastic force of the two limiting members, this ensures that the incomplete gear 331 is engaged with the driving gear 334 of the push rod 332, and further ensures that the incomplete gear 331 rotates counterclockwise to drive the push rod 332 to move smoothly. Therefore, the first limiting member 335 and the second limiting member 338 made of elastic materials not only limit the movement of the push rod 332, but also ensure the continuity of the movement of the whole push rod 332 and the incomplete gear 331.

The mounting seat 392 can be installed at various positions, for example, the mounting seat 392 can be installed at the outer side of the top of the case 1; for another example, referring to fig. 2 and 4, an installation cavity may be disposed at the top of the door body 2, and the installation seat 392 is installed in the installation cavity; if the mounting seat 392 is mounted on the outer side of the top of the refrigerator body 1, the mounting seat 392 protrudes out of the top of the refrigerator body 1, so that the top of the refrigerator is uneven, the attractiveness of the refrigerator is affected, and articles are inconvenient to place on the top of the refrigerator; if the installation seat 392 is installed in the installation cavity at the top of the door body 2, the installation seat 392 is not higher than the height of the door body 2, so that after the door body 2 is closed, the installation seat 392 cannot be exposed, the top of the refrigerator is flat, the attractiveness of the refrigerator cannot be influenced, and articles can be conveniently placed on the top of the refrigerator. In order to prevent sundries from falling into the mounting seat 392, and to make the appearance more beautiful, the upper part of the mounting seat 392 is provided with an upper cover 391 which is mutually buckled with the mounting seat 392, the upper end of the hinge shaft 4 extends out of the upper cover 391 and is connected with the hinge plate 5, the output shaft of the driving motor 31 is positioned in the mounting seat 392, the main body part of the driving motor 31 is positioned outside the mounting seat 392, and in order to prevent the driving motor 31 from being knocked, the outside of the driving motor 31 is provided with a motor cover 311.

Referring to fig. 12, rotation mechanism 36 includes a second driven gear 361, hinge shaft 4 has engagement teeth 362 provided along a circumferential direction thereof and engaged with second driven gear 361, and rotation mechanism 36 converts rotation of drive motor 31 into rotation of hinge shaft 4.

Referring to fig. 4, the output end of the driving motor 31 may also be connected to the rotating mechanism 36 through the clutch 34, that is, when the driving motor 31 drives the ejecting mechanism 33 to move, the clutch 34 is powered off, so that the rotating mechanism 36 is in a locked state, thereby avoiding damage to the rotating mechanism 36 due to a large torque at the moment of opening the door, and further improving the working stability of the refrigerator.

Because the rotation speed of the driving motor 31 is generally high, and if the opening speed of the door body 2 is too fast, the inertia thereof is large, when the door body 2 is blocked in the rotation process, the door body 2 cannot stop rotating in time, the door body 2 or the driving motor 31 is easily damaged, and in addition, if a user accidentally hits the door body 2 which is being opened quickly, the user is also easily damaged, in order to enable the ejection mechanism 33 to eject the door body 2 within a preset time period and enable the rotating mechanism 36 to completely open the door body 2 within another preset time period, a first speed reduction mechanism 32 can be arranged between the output end of the driving motor 31 and the clutch 34, and a second speed reduction mechanism 35 is arranged between the output end of the clutch 34 and the rotating mechanism 36. The second speed reducing mechanism 35 can further reduce the rotation speed of the driving motor 31 after the door body 2 is ejected by the ejection mechanism 33, and then the rotating mechanism 36 drives the door body 2 to be slowly opened, so that the door body 2 or the driving motor 31 is not easily damaged, and the safety of the refrigerator can be improved. The second reduction mechanism 35 can increase the torque and transmit the increased torque to the rotation mechanism 36, thereby reducing the performance requirement for the rotation mechanism 36. The second reduction mechanism 35 may be a reduction gear set.

The ejection mechanism 33 can eject the door body 2 to a preset position within a preset time by controlling the reduction ratio of the first reduction mechanism 32, and the rotating mechanism 36 can fully open the door body 2 within another preset time period by controlling the reduction ratio of the second reduction mechanism 35. For example, the ejection mechanism 33 can eject the door body 2 to 8 ° to 15 ° within 1s, and the rotation mechanism 36 can fully open the door body 2 within 4 s.

In order to make the transmission smoother, the first speed reduction mechanism 32 generally adopts multi-stage speed reduction, for example, the first speed reduction mechanism 32 may include a second driving gear disposed on the driving shaft and a plurality of first driven gears disposed on different driven shafts, and this structure has the disadvantage that if the number of transmission stages needs to be increased, the number of driven shafts must be increased, the structure is complex, and the occupied space is large; for another example, referring to fig. 5, the first speed reducing mechanism 32 may further include a first mounting shaft 321 connected to the output end of the driving motor 31, a first gear 322 and at least one second duplicate gear 324 both sleeved on the first mounting shaft 321, a second mounting shaft 325 arranged in parallel with the first mounting shaft 321, and at least one first duplicate gear 323 sleeved on the second mounting shaft 325. The second duplicate gear 324 can rotate relative to the first mounting shaft 321, i.e., the first mounting shaft 321 does not transmit torque. The first dual gear 323 is able to rotate relative to the second mounting shaft 325, i.e., the second mounting shaft 325 does not transmit torque.

Referring to fig. 5, for example, the number of the first duplicate gears 323 may be two, the number of the second duplicate gears 324 may also be two, and since the first gear 322 is fixed on the first mounting shaft 321, the first duplicate gear 323 may rotate relative to the second mounting shaft 325, the second duplicate gears 324 may rotate relative to the first mounting shaft 321, and both the first duplicate gears 323 and the second duplicate gears 324 have different sizes, when the driving motor 31 drives the first mounting shaft 321 to rotate, the first gear 322 may drive the large gear of one of the first duplicate gears 323 to rotate, so as to implement a first reduction, and at the same time, the small gear of the first duplicate gear 323 may drive the large gear of one of the second duplicate gears 324 to rotate, so as to implement a second reduction, the small gear of the second duplicate gear 324 may drive the large gear of the other first duplicate gear 323, and a third-stage speed reduction is realized, the small gear in the first duplicate gear 323 drives the large gear in the other second duplicate gear 324 to rotate so as to realize a fourth-stage speed reduction, and the small gear in the other second duplicate gear 324 is meshed with the transmission gear 333, so that the increased torque is transmitted to the ejection mechanism 33 and the rotating mechanism 36. The output end of the second mounting shaft 325 is sleeved with a shaft head 327, one end of the shaft head 327 is fixedly connected with another second duplicate gear 324, and the other end of the shaft head 327 is fixedly connected with the input shaft of the clutch 34. The structure has the advantages that when the number of transmission stages is required to be increased, the number of the first duplicate gears 323 and the second duplicate gears 324 is increased, the number of mounting shafts is not required to be increased, the structure is simpler and more compact, and the occupied space is less.

Referring to fig. 4 and 5, in order to make the structure of the refrigerator more compact, the driving motor 31 may be disposed along the height direction of the door body 2, the first installation shaft 321 is disposed along the width direction of the door body 2, and the first steering mechanism 37 is disposed between the driving motor 31 and the first installation shaft 321, and converts the rotation of the output shaft of the driving motor 31 around the height direction of the door body 2 into the rotation of the first installation shaft 321 around the width direction of the door body 2, so that the ejection mechanism 33 can smoothly eject the door body 2; a second steering mechanism 38 may be disposed between the output end of the clutch 34 and the rotating mechanism 36, and the second steering mechanism 38 may convert the rotation of the output shaft of the clutch 34 around the width direction of the door body 2 into the rotation of the rotating mechanism 36 around the height direction of the door body 2, so that the rotating mechanism 36 may smoothly drive the door body 2 to rotate.

The first steering mechanism 37 has various structures, for example, the first steering mechanism 37 may be a bevel gear mechanism; as another example, referring to fig. 5, the first steering mechanism 37 may also employ a worm gear mechanism including a worm wheel 371 and a worm 372, the worm 372 being disposed on an output shaft of the driving motor 31, and the worm wheel 371 being disposed on an input end of the first mounting shaft 321 and meshing with the worm 372. Because the first steering mechanism 37 is directly connected with the driving motor 31, the larger the transmission ratio of the first steering mechanism 37 is, the better the transmission ratio is, compared with a bevel gear mechanism, the worm gear mechanism has the advantages of more compact structure, larger transmission ratio and more stable transmission, and in addition, because the meshing tooth surfaces of two wheels in the worm gear mechanism are in line contact, the bearing capacity of the worm gear mechanism is also greatly higher than that of the bevel gear mechanism. Therefore, a worm gear mechanism is preferable.

The second steering mechanism 38 has various structures, for example, the second steering mechanism 38 may be a worm and gear mechanism; as another example, referring to fig. 11, the second steering mechanism 38 may also adopt a bevel gear mechanism, the bevel gear mechanism includes a first bevel gear 381, a second bevel gear 382, and a transmission shaft 383, the first bevel gear 381 is disposed on the output shaft of the clutch 34, the second bevel gear 382 is engaged with the first bevel gear 381, a rotation axis of the second bevel gear 382 is perpendicular to a rotation axis of the first bevel gear 381, the transmission shaft 383 is disposed along a height direction of the door body 2, the second bevel gear 382 is mounted at an input end of the transmission shaft 383, and an output end of the transmission shaft 383 is connected to the second speed reduction mechanism 35. Compared with a worm gear mechanism, the bevel gear mechanism is higher in transmission efficiency and lower in cost. Therefore, a bevel gear mechanism is preferable.

In the opening process of the door body 2, if the door body 2 is blocked but the driving motor 31 cannot stop rotating in time, the driving motor 31 or the rotating mechanism 36 is easily damaged, therefore, a potentiometer 6 which rotates synchronously with the door body 2 can be used for detecting the rotating angle of the door body 2, the rotating shaft of the potentiometer 6 is in transmission connection with a hinge shaft 4 of the door body 2, the output voltage value of the potentiometer 6 is correspondingly changed along with the change of the rotating angle of the hinge shaft 4, the control unit is configured to control the driving assembly to operate according to the output voltage value of the potentiometer 6, and if the output voltage value of the potentiometer 6 continuously changes, the normal moving state of the door body 2 is indicated, and the driving assembly continuously operates; if the output voltage value of the potentiometer 6 is unchanged, it indicates that the door body 2 is blocked in the movement process, and the driving assembly stops running. Therefore, when the door body 2 is blocked, the driving assembly can be stopped in time, and the driving assembly or the rotating mechanism 36 is effectively prevented from being damaged.

The potentiometer 6 has various available installation modes, for example, a rotating shaft of the potentiometer 6 can be directly and fixedly connected with the hinge shaft 4 or the first driven gear 351, and the structure has the disadvantages that the rotating speed of the rotating shaft of the potentiometer 6 needs to be the same as that of the hinge shaft 4 or the first driven gear 351, the rotating speed of the rotating shaft of the potentiometer 6 cannot be independently adjusted, the peak value and the valley value of the output voltage value of the potentiometer 6 are not easy to be exactly corresponding to the fully opened state and the fully closed state of the door body 2, and the condition of inaccurate detection may occur; for another example, referring to fig. 12, the rotating shaft of the potentiometer 6 may also rotate along with the mounting gear 7, the mounting gear 7 is engaged with the first driven gear 351, and the first driven gear 351 may drive the rotating shaft of the potentiometer 6 to rotate, so that the output voltage of the potentiometer 6 is changed.

The potentiometer 6 comprises three ports, namely an input end P1, an input end P2 and an output end P3, wherein the input end P1 is connected with the negative pole of a power supply, the input end P2 is connected with the positive pole of the power supply, and the output end P3 is connected with the control unit.

The above description is only for the specific embodiments of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, and any person skilled in the art can easily think of the changes or substitutions within the technical scope of the present invention, and all should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
