  • a user may pull out a drawer and take the required stored product. After taking the stored product, the user may push the drawer back into the storage compartment, so that an entire taking process is completed.
  • the drawers within the existing refrigerators have open design and poor sealing performance, which easily results in odor tainting of the stored products within the storage compartments and even causes bacteria growth, and consequently, food hygiene is influenced.
  • JP 2000-39256 A1 discloses a refrigerator in which a vegetable case that can be pulled and pushed according to the open and close of a drawer type door is provided in a vegetable room, and a tray is movably provided in a forward/rearward direction on an upper part of the vegetable case, a rear part of the tray is formed to be one step deeper, and a rib is provided in a border part between the rear part and a front part so as to prevent a drop of a stored object.
  • Embodiments of the utility model are intended to provide an improved refrigerator.
  • the object is solved with the features of independent claim 1.
  • Preferred embodiments are subject of the dependent claims.
  • the embodiments of the utility model provide a refrigerator, including: a storage compartment; a drawer located within the storage compartment, the drawer having an opening facing upward; a lid for uncovering or covering the opening, the lid being slidably supported on an upper portion of the drawer, when the drawer is pulled out of the storage compartment, the lid being pulled out with the drawer and keeping the opening covered and sliding relative to the drawer to be pushed back into the storage compartment to uncover the opening; and a block located within the storage compartment, configured to prevent the lid from continuing moving rearward to keep the lid supported on the drawer that is pulled out, and enable the lid to cover the opening when the drawer is pushed into the storage compartment.
  • solutions for embodiments of the utility model provide a refrigerator having a drawer.
  • the drawer When the drawer is located within a storage compartment of the refrigerator and is pulled out of the storage compartment, an opening of the drawer is covered through a lid supported on the drawer, which can effectively improve sealing performance of the drawer and prevent a stored product in the drawer from being directly exposed within the storage compartment and being tainted with other stored products in the storage compartment, thereby helping improve food hygiene.
  • the lid can be pushed by a user to slide forward and rearward relative to the drawer to uncover the opening of the drawer, which is convenient for the user to take the stored product in the drawer.
  • the lid can be prevented from excessively moving rearward until detaching from the drawer, so that it can be ensured that the lid is always supported on the drawer while sliding forward and rearward.
  • the block is disposed within the storage compartment, when the opening of the drawer is pushed back into the storage compartment in an uncovered state, the user does not need to cover the lid intentionally, but the opening of the drawer can be covered automatically through cooperation of the lid with the block as the drawer is pushed back into the storage compartment, so that the drawer is in a sealed state within the storage compartment.
  • the lid includes: a frame, the frame enclosing a viewing port; and a transparent member disposed within the viewing port and connected to the frame. Accordingly, when the drawer is pulled out of the storage compartment, an interior of the drawer can be visually seen without pushing open the lid, and the user can accurately and quickly determine whether a stored product being sought is stored in the drawer, thereby reducing the number of unnecessary uncovering and covering of the drawer. In other words, the user can push open the lid of the drawer to take the stored product after determining that the stored product to be taken is actually stored in the drawer, instead of first uncovering the lid and then determining whether the stored product is in the drawer, which further reduces a possibility of odor tainting.
  • the transparent member may be made of tempered glass.
  • an area of the viewing port accounts for 60% to 90% of an area of the opening to ensure that all corners inside the drawer can be clearly seen from the viewing port, thereby avoiding a visual blind zone.
  • the lid further includes a sealing strip fixed to a lower side of the lid and contacting an upper edge of the drawer when the lid covers the opening, thereby forming a confined space within the drawer, so that sealing performance of the drawer is better.
  • the sealing strip may be fixed to a frame disposed surrounding a transparent member.
  • the lid is made of a heat-conducting material to conduct temperature through a physical property of the material, thereby achieving a better freezing/unfreezing effect, so that partition storage and short-term sealed refrigeration can be implemented with a simple structural design.
  • the drawer has an air duct, a space inside the drawer being in communication with a space outside the drawer when the air duct is opened, and the space inside the drawer being isolated from the space outside the drawer when the air duct is closed. Accordingly, a separate air duct designed on the drawer is beneficial to freely switch between partitioned storage and sealed storage, to meet diversified needs of users.
  • the drawer includes a bottom wall, a front wall, a rear wall, a pair of side walls, and a top wall, the top wall being located between the opening and the front wall, and the air duct being located on a top wall of the drawer. Accordingly, when the air duct is opened, air inside the drawer can be quickly exchanged with air outside the drawer, and when the air duct is closed, it can be ensured that the drawer is in a relatively good sealed state. Further, when the drawer is pulled out of the storage compartment, the air duct disposed on the top wall of the drawer enables the user to visually observe a current state of the air duct, so that the user can adjust the air duct to be in an open/closed state as needed.
  • the drawer further has a controller connected to the air duct to open or close the air duct. Accordingly, the user can control the air duct to be in an open/closed state as needed to flexibly switch the state of the drawer between the partitioned storage and the sealed storage.
  • the lid has a stop, the lid moving rearward relative to the drawer until the stop abuts against the block to prevent the lid from continuing moving rearward. Accordingly, through the cooperation of the block with the stop, when the lid is pushed toward the storage compartment to uncover the opening of the drawer, the lid can be prevented from excessively moving rearward until detaching from the drawer, so that it can be ensured that the lid is always supported on the drawer. Further, when the drawer is pushed back into the storage compartment with the opening uncovered, as the drawer moves rearward, the lid is confined to an original place because the stop abuts against the block thereof. Accordingly, when the drawer moves into the storage compartment, the lid can be naturally covered on the drawer and the opening of the drawer is covered.
  • the stop is connected to the handle of the lid, which facilitates overall aesthetic appearance of the drawer while simplifying the structure and being easy to manufacture.
  • the block is fixed to an inner wall of the storage compartment and extends to an upper side of the lid to effectively prevent the lid supported on the upper edge of the drawer from excessively moving rearward and control the lid to cover the opening of the drawer when the drawer is pushed backed to the storage compartment.
  • the refrigerator further includes: a guide rail, configured to movably fix the drawer within the storage compartment, the drawer being adapted to be pulled out or pushed back into the storage compartment along the guide rail. Accordingly, the user can conveniently pull out or push back the drawer as needed, preventing the drawer and/or the storage compartment from being damaged by unlubricated friction with an inner wall of the storage compartment when the drawer moves forward and rearward relative to the storage compartment, which can help improve user experience.
  • an embodiment of the utility model provides a refrigerator, including: a storage compartment; a drawer located within the storage compartment, the drawer having an opening facing upward; a lid for uncovering or covering the opening, the lid being slidably supported at an upper portion of the drawer, when the drawer is pulled out of the storage compartment, the lid being pulled out with the drawer while keeping the opening covered and sliding relative to the drawer to be pushed back into the storage compartment to uncover the opening; and a block located within the storage compartment, configured to prevent the lid from continuing moving rearward to keep the lid supported on the drawer that is pulled out, and enable the lid to cover the opening when the drawer is pushed into the storage compartment.
