Since the condensed water collecting member 17 is supported by the first plate 111, the pressure of the condensed water collecting member 17 to the duct cover 15 can be reduced, and the reliability of the connection of the duct cover 15 can be improved. In addition, the first plate 111 is provided with a plurality of mounting positions 110, which has higher bearing capacity, and the condensed water collecting element 17 is borne on the first plate 111, so that the load of the second plate 112 can be reduced, and the reliability of the structure can be improved.

In the embodiment of the present utility model, the condensed water collecting element 17 and the first plate 111 may be slidably engaged through a chute or a rail. As shown in fig. 8, both sides of the condensed water collecting element 17 are provided with positioning bosses 171, respectively. The opposite sides of the two first plates 111 are respectively provided with a sliding groove 1112. The positioning bosses 171 are slidably disposed in the corresponding sliding grooves 1112. Of course, it is also possible to provide the slide grooves on both sides of the condensate collector 17, respectively, and the positioning bosses on the opposite sides of the two first plates 111, respectively.

Further, referring to fig. 1, the chute 1112 includes a positioning groove portion 1112a and a guide groove portion 1112b. The positioning groove 1112a extends in the depth direction of the refrigeration compartment 41.

When the condensate collector 17 is installed, the positioning boss 171 of the condensate collector 17 is pushed into the flared end of the guide groove portion 1112b, and then the condensate collector 17 is pushed to move upward along the guide surface of the guide groove portion 1112b, see fig. 9. After the positioning boss 171 enters the positioning groove portion 1112a, the condensed water collecting element 17 is pushed to rotate upward around the positioning boss 171 by a certain angle. And then continues to advance along the positioning groove portion 1112a until the positioning boss 171 abuts against the end of the positioning groove portion 1112a remote from the guiding groove portion 1112b, i.e., indicates that the condensed water collecting element 17 is mounted in place, see fig. 7.

In this embodiment, by providing the guide groove portion 1112b, and the width of the guide groove portion 1112b gradually increases from the positioning groove portion 1112a to a direction away from the positioning groove portion 1112a, the positioning boss 171 of the condensate water collecting member 17 can be conveniently and rapidly pushed into the positioning groove portion 1112a, so that quick installation of the condensate water collecting member 17 is realized.

Further, a hanging button 1116 is provided in the positioning groove 1112a, and the hanging button 1116 limits the positioning boss 171 to the positioning groove 1112 a. Thus, the condensed water collector 17 is prevented from coming out of the positioning groove portion 1112 a.

Based on the above embodiment, the number of the sliding grooves 1112 on each first plate 111 is two, wherein one sliding groove 1112 is close to the rear wall surface of the refrigeration compartment 41 and far from the upper wall surface of the refrigeration compartment 41 relative to the other sliding groove 1112.
