Referring to fig. 1 to 6, a refrigerator 100 having a reversible shelf 2 according to a first embodiment of the present invention is shown. Specifically, the refrigerator 100 includes a cabinet 1, and a shelf 2 rotatably coupled in the cabinet 1. As shown in fig. 1-2, the shelf 2 has a horizontal placement state in the box 1 and a hovering state in which the shelf is turned upwards and hovers at a preset opening angle. The article that the shelf 2 below was treated and is placed is higher, when needing to give way, the user only need upwards overturn shelf 2 makes shelf 2 is in the state of hovering, can give the article of below and give way, makes the below can place higher article, simultaneously, is in the state of hovering shelf 2 is more stable, can not produce with the article of below yet and interfere, the operation of being convenient for.

Specifically, the box body 1 is provided with a first inner wall 11 located on the side where the rotating end of the shelf 2 is located, and two second inner walls 12 which are vertically arranged at two opposite ends of the first inner wall 11 and extend in the same direction, and the first inner wall 11 and the second inner walls 12 jointly enclose a storage space for storing articles in the box body 1.

Further, the refrigerator 100 further includes a hovering assembly 5 disposed between the shelf 2 and the cabinet 1 to enable the shelf 2 to hover at a preset opening angle. The hovering assembly 5 comprises a first fixing part 41 arranged on the box body 1 and a second fixing part 42 arranged on the shelf 2, wherein the first fixing part 41 and the second fixing part 42 are rotatably connected so as to rotatably connect the shelf 2 to the box body 1.

In this embodiment, the first fixing member 41 is disposed on the second inner wall 12, and the second fixing member 42 is disposed on the rear end portion of the shelf 2 corresponding to the second inner wall 12. The length of the shelf 2 is increased, the storage space in the shelf 2 is increased, and the arrangement of the first fixing piece 41 and the second fixing piece 42 is facilitated. Of course, the invention is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the first fixing member 41 may also be disposed on the first inner wall 11.

Further, referring to fig. 2, in this embodiment, specifically, the hovering assembly 5 includes a locking member 51 disposed on the first fixing member 41, and a fixture block 52 disposed on the second fixing member 42, where a locking end of the locking member 51 has a first clamping slot 511 matched with the fixture block 52; when the shelf 2 is at a preset opening angle, the first engaging groove 511 of the locking member 51 abuts against the engaging block 52. That is, under the action of the gravity of the shelf 2, the latch 52 abuts against the first latch slot 511, and the locking member 51 supports the shelf 2 to prevent the shelf 2 from continuing to rotate under the action of its own gravity, so that the shelf 2 is in a hovering state.

Further, the locking member 51 is movably connected to the first fixing member 41, and the locking member 51 has an initial state shown in fig. 2 and a locking state against the latch 52 shown in fig. 3. When the shelf 2 is in the object placing state, the locking piece 51 is in the initial state, and in the process that the shelf 2 is in the object placing state and is switched between the preset opening angles, the locking piece 51 and the fixture block 52 do not interfere with each other, so that the locking piece 51 does not influence the normal rotation of the shelf 2. When the shelf 2 is at a preset opening angle, the locking member 51 is switched to the locking state, and the first card slot 511 abuts against the card block 52, so that the shelf 2 is in a hovering state. Of course, not limited thereto, in other embodiments, the locking member 51 may also be configured to be fixedly connected to the box body 1, and at this time, the locking member 51 is located on the moving path of the fixture block 52, so as to limit the shelf 2 from being further opened when the shelf 2 is opened to a preset opening angle, so that the shelf 2 is in a hovering state.

In one embodiment, the locking member 51 is rotatably connected to the first fixing member 41. When the locking member 51 is in the initial state, the locking member 51 is far away from the moving path of the fixture block 52, and in the process that the shelf 2 is rotated and opened, there is no interference between the locking member 51 and the fixture block 52, so that the locking member 51 does not influence the rotation of the shelf 2. Of course, the disclosure is not limited thereto, in other embodiments, the locking member 51 may be configured to be slidably connected to the first fixing member 41, as long as in a process of switching the shelf 2 between the storage state and the preset opening angle, a moving path of the locking member 51 away from the fixture block 52 does not affect rotation of the shelf 2, after the shelf 2 is opened by a certain angle, the locking member 51 can move to a position where the first card slot 511 is located on a moving path of the fixture block 52 when the shelf 2 moves under the action of its own weight, that is, the first card slot 511 is aligned with the fixture block 52, and after the shelf 2 is released by a user, under the action of the own weight of the shelf 2, the fixture block 52 falls into the first card slot 511 and abuts against the first card slot 511, so that the shelf 2 is in a hovering state.

Further, the hovering component 5 further comprises a pushing block 53 disposed on the second fixing member 42. The pushing end of the locking member 51 in the initial state, which is opposite to the locking end, is located on the moving path of the pushing block 53 during the shelf 2 is opened to the preset opening angle. When the shelf 2 is opened, the pushing block 53 is driven to push the pushing end to drive the locking member 51 to rotate until the first engaging groove 511 is aligned with the engaging block 52, so that when the shelf 2 is at a preset opening angle, the first engaging groove 511 abuts against the engaging block 52, and the shelf 2 is in a hovering state.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, in an embodiment, along an overturning direction in which the shelf 2 is opened, the push block 53 and the latch block 52 are sequentially disposed at intervals, and a distance from the push block 53 to a rotation axis of the shelf 2 is greater than a distance from the latch block 52 to the rotation axis of the shelf 2. After the shelf 2 is rotated and opened until the push block 53 contacts with the push end of the locking member 51 in the initial state, the push block 53 continues to rotate and open, and the push block 53 pushes the locking member 51 to rotate, so that the locking end rotates upwards until the first clamping groove 511 is aligned with the clamping block 52. After the shelf 2 is loosened, under the action of the dead weight of the shelf 2, the shelf 2 falls back downwards to the first clamping groove 511 to abut against the clamping block 52, at this time, the locking piece 51 is in a locking state, and the shelf 2 is in a hovering state at a preset opening angle.

Further, the pushing end has a second engaging groove 512 cooperating with the pushing block 53, and the second engaging groove 512 of the locking member 51 in the initial state is located on a moving path of the pushing block 53 when the shelf 2 is opened to a preset opening angle. When the shelf 2 is rotated and opened until the push block 53 is in contact with the push end of the locking member 51 in the initial state, that is, the push block 53 is in contact with the second slot 512.

After the push block 53 is clamped into the second slot 512 and drives the locking member 51 to rotate until the first slot 511 is aligned with the locking block 52, the push block 53 abuts against the second slot 512 to limit the shelf 2 to continue rotating. That is, at this time, the user cannot continue to open the shelf 2, the user loosens his hand, and the shelf 2 falls back down to the first engaging groove 511 to abut against the engaging block 52 under the action of its own weight, and is in a hovering state.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 4, when the shelf 2 is in the hovering state, the push block 53 is separated from the second slot 512, so that the push block 53 can push the outer side of the pushing end to drive the locking member 51 to rotate by slightly lifting the shelf 2, and the first slot 511 and the locking block 52 are dislocated, so that the shelf 2 can be rotated downward to the object placing state.

As shown in fig. 5 to 6, during the process of opening the shelf 2 from the hovering state (i.e., the slight lifting described above), the pushing block 53 pushes the outer side of the pushing end, instead of the second engaging groove 512, so that the first engaging groove 511 and the engaging block 52 can be misaligned.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 5 to 6, the locking member 51 includes a first side 513 and a second side 514 opposite to each other and between the pushing end and the locking end. When the shelf 2 is in a hovering state, the first side surface 513 faces the pushing block 53, and the pushing block 53 pushes the outer side of the pushing end, that is, the pushing end of the pushing block 53 pushing the first side surface 513. After the first engaging groove 511 and the engaging block 52 are misaligned, the second side surface 514 faces the engaging block 52, that is, the engaging block 52 and the pushing block 53 are respectively located at two opposite sides of the locking member 51.

Further, after the first engaging groove 511 and the engaging block 52 are dislocated, and in the process that the shelf 2 rotates to the storage state, the engaging block 52 pushes the second side surface 514 of the locking member 51 to rotate continuously to the initial state, and when the shelf 2 is in the storage state, the locking member 51 is in the initial state. It can be known that, in the process of switching the shelf 2 from the object placing state to the hovering state and then to the object placing state, the locking member 51 rotates by 180 °, at this time, the pushing end of the locking member 51 is exchanged with the locking end, that is, in the process of opening the shelf 2 next time, the pushing end of the locking member 51 which was opened in the shelf 2 last time becomes the locking end, and the corresponding locking end becomes the pushing end. Thus, the locking end and the pushing end of the locking member 51 are not limited, but opposite. Correspondingly, the initial state and the locked state of the lock member 51 are also opposite to each other. Correspondingly, the first side 513 and the second side 514 are also opposite, and the first card slot 511, the second card slot 512, the first side 513 and the second side 514 labeled in fig. 4-6 are referred to when the primary shelf 2 shown in the figures is switched from the placement state to the hovering state, and then switched to the placement state.

Further, the hovering assembly 5 further includes an accommodating groove 54 disposed on the second fixing element 42, and when the locking member 51 is in the initial state, the locking member 51 is accommodated in the accommodating groove 54; one end of the housing groove 54 close to the latch 52 has an inlet and an outlet for the locking member 51 to enter and exit the housing groove 54. Specifically, the latch 52 is located at a side of the receiving groove 54 close to the pushing block 53, and in the process of turning the shelf 2 to the storage state, the latch 52 pushes the locking member 51, so that the pushing end of the locking member 51 enters the receiving groove 54 and is in the initial state under the guidance of the receiving groove 54. In the process that the shelf 2 is rotated upwards from the storage state and opened, the locking piece 51 is separated from the accommodating groove 54, and then is rotated towards the locking state under the action of the pushing block 53.

Further, the preset opening angle is smaller than 90 °, so that interference between the shelf 2 and the first inner wall 11 can be avoided. Of course, this is not a limitation.

In one embodiment, the predetermined opening angle is 80 °, but not limited thereto.

Further, the shelf 2 includes a first shelf 21 rotatably connected to the case 1, and a second shelf 22 rotatably connected to the first shelf 21. On one hand, when the shelf 2 is in the storage state, the first shelf 21 and the second shelf 22 are in the same plane, so that the storage space of the shelf 2 is enlarged; when the shelf 2 needs to give way, firstly, the second shelf 22 is turned over to the position where the second shelf 2 is folded with the first shelf and then turned over, and the shelf 2 is in a hovering state, so that the interference between the shelf 2 and the shelf last time can be avoided. On the other hand, when only the space of the positioning portion is required, the second shelf 22 may be folded onto the first shelf 21, thereby enhancing the versatility of the shelf 2.
