  • embodiments of the present disclosure provide a water tank assembly and a refrigerator adopting the water tank assembly.
  • a water tank assembly as shown in FIGS. 1-5 , includes: a water storage box 3, a box cover 2 and a fence 5; wherein a water outlet 7 is arranged at a bottom of the water storage box 3, and the box cover 2 is fastened to the opening of the water storage box 3; the fence 5 is rotatable around the water storage box 3, when the fence 5 is rotated to a position above the water storage box 3, the fence 5 and the box cover 2 fastened on the water storage box 3 enclose a space for placing articles (there is water in the water storage box); or the fence 5 and an inner bottom of the water storage box 3 enclose a space for placing articles (there is no water in the water storage box).
  • the fence 5 is rotated to a side of or a position under the water storage box 3, the fence 5 and a bottom wall or a side wall of the water storage box 3 enclose a second storage space.
  • the water storage box 3 has a box structure and may have an opening at the upper part and fastened and closed by interference fit with the box cover 2. Therefore, when no cold water is needed, the water storage box 3 is configured to store articles, and the articles are placed in the box from the opening of the box.
  • the box cover 2 and the water storage box 3 can be connected in a way that the two are separate and fastened by interference connection.
  • the box cover 2 and the water storage box 3 may be hinged, that is, one edge of the box cover 2 is hinged on the opening edge of the water storage box 3 through a hinge or other articulation pieces.
  • the box cover 2 may be fastened to the opening of the water storage box 3 in a detachable or hinged way.
  • the box cover 2 After the box cover 2 is detached from the water storage box 3, it can be placed in the second storage space; when the box cover 2 is hinged on the water storage box 3, the box cover 2 can be directly rotated and hung on the water storage box 3, while the second storage space can store other articles.
  • the fence 5 may not be rotated according to the needs. When it is not rotated, the fence 5 and the inner bottom of the water storage box 3 form a storage space.
  • the fence 5 is a frame and shown as a snakelike linear frame in the figures.
  • the fence 5 is rotated around the water storage box 3 in order that the fence 5 is rotated to different locations of the water storage box 3.
  • the fence 5 is rotatably installed inside the refrigerator door, or the installation position of the fence 5 can be determined according to the installation position of the water tank. For example, if the water tank assembly is installed on the refrigerator door body, the fence 5 can be rotatably installed on the inside of the door body; if the water tank assembly is installed on the refrigerator body, the fence 5 can be rotatably installed on the inside of the refrigerator body.
  • both ends of the fence 5 are installed on both ends of the water storage box 3 through the locking nuts 6.
  • the fence 5 and the water storage box 3 limit a storage space to facilitate the storage of the box cover 2.
  • the water outlet 7 is provided with a detachable sealing cover 1, so that when the fence 5 is rotated to a position under or beside the water storage box 3, the detachable sealing cover 1 closes the water outlet 7.
  • the detachable sealing cover 1 blocks the water outlet 7 and the water outlet tube 9.
  • the purpose of the detachability is that when the water storage box 3 stores water, the water outlet 7 and the water outlet tube 9 should be kept unblocked, and the detachable sealing cover 1 needs to be detached.
  • the detachable sealing cover 1 can be screwed into the water outlet 7 or squeezed into the water outlet 7 by interference fit.
  • the box cover 2 is provided with a water inlet 8, from which water can be added directly.
  • the detachable sealing cover does not need to seal the water outlet. Therefore, at this time, the detachable sealing cover 1 can be mounted at the water inlet 8 by tightening or squeezing. The water inlet 8 is sealed when no water is needed, and the sealing cover can be detached when water is needed to be added.
  • the detachable sealing cover 1 can be configured to close both the water inlet and the water outlet; the water inlet 8 and the water outlet 7 have the same size and shape.
