  • the fixation manner is more convenient and costs less compared with the manner of fixing the storage rack by using an adhesive tape.
  • the present utility model provides a refrigerator, including:
  • the storage rack 2 includes a locking portion 22, and the fixing portion 11 has a stop portion 11a for stopping the locking portion 22 from moving upwards, to prevent the storage rack 2 from moving upwards.
  • the pair of fixing portions 11 on the door body 1 can be disposed opposite to each other and protrude toward each other.

  • the hanging portions 21 can have an n shape.
  • the fixing portions 11 can protrude from the surface of the door body 1, and match the shape of the hanging portions 21, so that the hanging portions 21 can be supported on the fixing portions 11.
  • the stop portion 11a can be disposed on the fixing portion 11 additionally to stop the locking portion 22 from moving upwards, or a lower portion of the fixing portion 11 can serve as the stop portion 11a.
  • the locking portion 22 can be located below the fixing portions 11.
  • the fixing portions 11 and the locking portions 22 are disposed in a one-to-one correspondence.
  • the hanging portion 21 can have an opening opened downwards, the locking portion 22 is located below the opening, and a projection of the locking portion 22 in a vertical direction and a projection of the hanging portion 21 in the vertical direction are at least partially overlapped.
  • a space can be formed between the locking portion 22 and the hanging portion 21.
  • the fixing portion 11 can be located in the space surrounded by the hanging portion 21 and the locking portion 22.
  • a size of the space formed between the locking portion 22 and the hanging portion 21 can be adjusted through setting the shapes of the locking portion 22 and the hanging portion 21 and an area of the overlapped portion of the projections of the locking portion 22 and hanging portion 21 in the vertical direction.
  • a completely sealed space or a non-sealed space can be formed between the locking portion 22 and the hanging portion 21.
  • the storage rack 2 can be fixed to the door body 1 more firmly.
  • the locking portion 22 may have various structures. This is not specifically limited.
  • the locking portion 22 may include an elastic member that can be elastically deformed in a width direction of the door body 1.
  • an elastic member that can be elastically deformed in a width direction of the door body 1.
  • the elastic member can be stopped by the stop portion 11a, thereby preventing the storage rack 2 from moving upwards.
  • the storage rack 2 is usually provided with side walls 23.
  • the side wall 23 may be in a single-layer structure or a double-layer structure.
  • the elastic member may be integrally formed on the side wall 23, to simplify the process of the storage rack 2.
  • the elastic member can alternatively be formed independent of the storage rack 2, and may be installed on the storage rack 2 by various means such as buckling.
