It can be understood that the refrigerator of the present invention may further have a signal receiver, a data processor, and a controller. The specific door opening mode of the refrigerator is that the signal receiver is used for receiving a signal which is sent by a user and needs to open a door, the signal is processed by the data processor and then transmitted to the controller, the controller controls the door body pre-opening device 200 to act to realize small-angle opening (namely, opening a preset angle), and then the user can manually pull the door to complete the door opening action. In a specific implementation process, the signal receiver may be a voice receiver for receiving voice of a user, or may be a device capable of receiving signals and transmitting the received signals to the data processor, such as a pressure sensor for receiving touch operation or press operation of the user, a camera, or the like.

Usually, a door body pre-opening device operation control program can be preset in the controller, and the operation control program comprises the following steps: the door body pre-opening device is started, and the ejector rod 21 moves towards the direction of the door body 12 at a set speed for a set distance; locking the current position of the ejector rod 21 to set time; the jack 21 retreats from the current position. In a specific implementation process, the set time range of the locking of the ejector rod 21 can be 3s-10 s. Based on this control program, when the door body 12 is pushed open by an erroneous operation, the door body 12 can be retracted synchronously with the plunger 21 until closed by the attraction force between the attraction engagement block 24 and the plunger 23 when the plunger 21 is retreated from the current position.

It is understood that in the application scenario of the specific refrigerator, the related actions of the first driving mechanism and the second driving mechanism are controlled by the controller. In the specific implementation process, when the ejector rod 21 moves towards the direction of the door body 12, the electromagnet is electrified; when the door body 12 is opened to a preset angle, the working current of the electromagnet is reduced or the electromagnet is directly powered off. If the electromagnet is directly powered off when the door body 12 is opened to a preset angle, the electromagnet is powered on again after the set time, and therefore the door body 12 can be ensured to be synchronously retracted along with the ejector rod 21 until being closed when being opened by mistake.
