As shown in fig. 4 to 7, the refrigerator is an embedded refrigerator. The slide groove 321 includes a first guide groove 322 and a second guide groove 323 that are communicated with each other. Wherein, the profile of the chute 321 can be set as a C-shape. During the opening process of the door 20, the first rotating shaft 311 moves in the first guide groove 322, and the second rotating shaft 312 moves in the second guide groove 323; when the door 20 is at the maximum opening angle, the first rotating shaft 311 is located at the stop end of the first guiding slot 322, and the stop end is located in the second guiding slot 323. Fig. 5 to 7 show a schematic view of an opening process of the hinge assembly 30.

Specifically, the sliding groove 321 includes a first segment 3211, a middle segment 3212, and a second segment 3213 that are sequentially connected, the first segment 3211 and the middle segment 3212 are spliced to form the first guide groove 322, and the middle segment 3212 and the second end 43 are spliced to form the second guide groove 323. During the opening process of the door 20, the motion tracks of the first rotating shaft 311 and the second rotating shaft 312 partially overlap.

Further, the chute seat 32 is provided with a protrusion along the outer contour of the chute 321, and the protrusion contacts with the hinge plate 31, thereby reducing friction between the chute seat 32 and the hinge plate 31, and enabling the hinge assembly 30 to rotate more effort-saving.

In this embodiment, the case 10 includes a receiving chamber 12, a pivoting side 13 for fixing the hinge plate 31, and the chute base 32 is mounted to the door 20. During the opening of the door 20, the door 20 moves toward the accommodating chamber 12 relative to the pivoting side 13, and rotates relative to the case 10, so as to open the door 20. And in the process of opening the door body 20, the cable 11 is hung relative to the door body 20, so that the cable 11 is prevented from being worn by the hinge plate 31 and the chute seat 32, and the service life of the cable 11 is prolonged.

In a third embodiment provided by the present utility model, as shown in fig. 9, the hollow post 40 includes a first end 42 connected to the hinge plate 31, and a second end 43 remote from the hinge plate 31 with respect to the first end 42, i.e., the hollow end is fixed to the hinge plate 31. And, the length of the hollow column 40 is longer than the distance between the hinge plate 31 and the chute seat 32 in the up-down direction, that is, the cable 11 is protected into the hollow column 40 during the opening and closing of the door body 20, so that the abrasion of the chute seat 32 to the cable 11 is reduced.

Further, the opening of the through hole 41 at the second end 43 is provided in a horn shape, so that the cable 11 can move along the radial direction of the through hole 41 at the opening, and the abrasion of the edge of the hollow post 40 to the cable 11 can be reduced.

Further, the sliding groove 321 is provided in a C-shape, and the edge of the sliding groove seat 32 is consistent with the shape of the sliding groove 321 to form the avoidance area 324. During the opening or closing of the door 20, the hollow column 40 can move in the avoidance area 324, and the hollow column 40 is wrapped on the outer side of the cable 11, so that the abrasion of the hinge assembly 30 to the cable 11 can be reduced.
