The lighting module 1 may form at least a portion of the front surface of the air duct assembly 2.
As shown in fig. 2 and 3, the lighting module 1 may include a light source 3, a light guide assembly 4, and a bezel 5 disposed along an edge of the light guide assembly.
The light source 3 may comprise several light emitting elements 31 and a substrate 32 carrying the light emitting elements 31. The light emitting element 31 may be a light emitting diode.
The light guide assembly 4 may include a light guide plate 41. At least one end surface of the light guide plate 41 faces the light emitting element 31.
The light guide plate 41 may include a plurality of dots, and light within the light guide plate 41 may be condensed again at the dots. The dots may be formed by printing, or concave/convex dots.
The light guide member 4 may include a diffusion plate 42 positioned in front of the light guide plate 41 to uniformly diffuse light from the light guide plate 41 to form a surface light source.
The light guide assembly 4 may further include a reflective layer 43 located behind the light guide plate 41 to direct light toward the diffuser plate 42 toward as near total reflection as possible.
The light guide member 4 may be pre-assembled to form a module. The various components of the light guide assembly 4 may be secured together in sequence, for example by adhesive means.
A bezel 5 is disposed along an edge of the light guide assembly 4. In an exemplary embodiment, the bezel 5 includes a pair of first opposing side frame strips 6 and another pair of second side frame strips 7 each connected between the respective first side frame strips 6 to form an end-to-end frame-shaped structure. It should be understood that the invention should not be limited to this particular embodiment. For example, in alternative embodiments, it is also possible that the bezel 5 is disposed along some edges of the light guide assembly 4.
The first side frame strip 6 and the second side frame strip 7 together form a first connecting surface 51 for overlapping the front surface 40 of the light guide assembly 4.
The lighting assembly 1 may include a rear cover 8, and the rear cover 8 is connected to the bezel 5 to cover the rear surface of the light guide assembly 4. The rear cover 8 may form a portion of the boundary of the air chute within the air chute assembly 2.
An elastic sheet 45 may be provided between the back cover 8 and the light guide member 4, and the elastic sheet 45 is pressed between the two so that the front surface of the light guide member 4 is always pressed against the bezel 5 even though the light guide member 4 may contract or expand under different environmental conditions.
The second side frame strip 7 may include a mounting portion 54 to fix the light source 3. The mounting portion 54 may be provided on at least one of the upper and lower frame strips 71 and 72. In an exemplary embodiment, the mounting portion 54 is provided to the upper frame strip 71.
The entrance of the mounting portion 54 may face the rear cover 8. Therefore, the light source 3 can be inserted into the mounting portion 54 from the rear side of the second side frame strip 7 at the time of assembly.
In one embodiment, the second frame strip 7 may include a connecting strip 73 and a decorative member 74 covering at least a portion of a front surface of the connecting strip 73. The connecting bar 73 may be connected to the first side frame strip 6 along the circumferential direction of the frame 5. The decoration 74 covers at least a part of the front surface of the connecting strip 73 and includes an extension 741 extending beyond the connecting strip 73 and extending to the front of the front surface 40 of the light guide member 5.
The mounting portion 54 is provided to the connection bar 73 to mount the light source 3. The mounting portion 54 has an entrance toward the rear or front side of the connecting bar 73.

The lighting module 1 comprises a wire cap 82 detachably connected to the rear cover 8 along the notch 81, the wire cap 82 covering the wire 33 located in the notch 81 from the rear side. This can reduce, on the one hand, damage due to exposure of the wires when they pass out between the bezel and the rear cover, for example, due to collision/rubbing during transportation or assembly of the refrigeration appliance, and, on the other hand, is advantageous in reducing the possibility that external liquid enters the mounting portion through the notch and contacts the light source.
The cord cap 82 has a receiving portion 83 to receive the cord 33 and has an outlet 88 accessible from the rear side of the rear cover 8. Line 33 extends from between bezel 5 and rear cover 8 to the rear of rear cover 8 via notch 81.
The rear side of the rear cover 8 has a guide groove 84. The wire 33 extends from the edge of the rear cover 8 toward the central region of the rear cover 8 along the guide groove 84 after protruding from the notch 82. The wire 33 extends downward from the corner of the cover 8 and the first side frame strip 6 at a predetermined angle within the guide groove 84 to the central region of the rear cover 8, substantially parallel to the first side frame strip 6. The angle between the guide groove 84 and the first side frame strip 6 may be between 30 and 60 degrees, for example 45 degrees.
A guide mechanism may be provided between the wire cap 82 and the rear cover 8. Specifically, both sides of the wire cap 8 may be provided with guide grooves and/or rails 86, and the rear cover 8 is provided with corresponding guide grooves and/or rails 87 along the edges of the notch 81, so that the wire cap 8 can be slidably fitted into the rear cover 8 by the guide mechanism.
The rear side of the rear cover 8 has a plurality of line catching portions 85 provided at intervals, and the line 33 passes through the plurality of line catching portions 85 such that the line 33 is arranged captively along the rear surface of the rear cover 8.
As shown in fig. 2, the rear cover 8 may be provided with a plurality of rearwardly extending fixing hooks 112. The fixing hooks 112 may be arranged along the peripheral region of the rear cover 8. The fixing hooks 112 are fastened to the duct assembly or the rear wall of the storage chamber 101.
The rear cover 8 may be provided with a plurality of rearwardly extending catches 114. The fixing hooks 114 are disposed along the peripheral region of the rear cover 8 for fixing a heat insulation layer (not shown) to the rear cover 8.
The rear cover 8 may further include a fixing portion 110 extending beyond a lower edge of the rear cover 8, and a screw (not shown) passes through the fixing portion 110 to fix the lighting module 1 to the rear wall of the storage chamber 101.
The various embodiments described in connection with fig. 1-5 may be combined with each other in any given way to achieve the advantages of the invention. The present invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiments, and other means than those shown may be used as long as the same effects can be achieved by the means.
