  • the light mount assembly comprises a light mount rotatably coupled to the front beam, a torsion spring disposed on a rotating shaft of the light mount, and an LED lamp disposed on the light mount; wherein the door is capable of abutting against and mating with the light mount via the a refrigerator
  • a tail end of the abutting block is provided with a first inclined surface
  • the light mount is correspondingly provided with a second inclined surface
  • the first inclined surface of the abutting block is capable of abutting against and mating with the second inclined surface of the light mount
  • the tail end of the abutting block is further provided with a buckle structure, configured to limit a position of the regulating assembly.
  • a bottom end of the abutting block is provided with a gap which is capable of snap-fitting with the first concave portion and configured to secure the light mount assembly.
  • the rotation action of the light mount assembly is coordinately controlled via the regulating assembly, and when the door is opening, the light mount assembly automatically turns over at a specific angle, such that the lamplight may be provided into the drawer, and thus the illumination blind spots are eliminated.
