Definitions

  • This utility model relates to the field of household appliance technologies, and in particular, to an improved refrigeration device.
  • a drawer door body of a refrigeration device generally is in sliding connection to an inner side wall of a storage compartment through a bracket and a guide rail assembly, where the bracket is further adapted to support a storage box accommodated in the storage compartment.
  • a length of the bracket is often the same as or similar to a length of the storage box, but the length of the storage box often changes with a depth of the storage compartment. Therefore, the length of the bracket needs to change with the length of the storage box and the depth of the storage compartment. However, at each change, a new bracket needs to be redesigned, injection molded, and manufactured.
  • the objective of this utility model is to provide an improved refrigeration device.
  • the refrigeration device provided by embodiments of this utility model includes: a storage compartment, a door body adapted to open or close the storage compartment, and a storage box accommodated in the storage compartment, and a bracket mounted on the door body, a slide rail in sliding connection to the bracket and the storage compartment, and a supporting member mounted on the slide rail, where a length of the bracket is less than a length of the storage box, and the supporting member and the bracket together support the storage box.
  • the supporting member includes a first supporting portion and a second supporting portion that are connected to each other and form an angle, the first supporting portion is mounted on the slide rail, and the second supporting portion abuts against the storage box.
  • the angle is 90 degrees.
  • first supporting portion and the second supporting portion together form a "T"-shaped or inverted “L”-shaped cross section.
  • a first reinforcing rib is provided in a part in which the first supporting portion is connected to the second supporting portion.
  • a groove is provided in the part in which the first supporting portion is connected to the second supporting portion, to form the first reinforcing rib.
  • the supporting member is detachably mounted on the slide rail.
  • the supporting member and the bracket are located on a same side of the slide rail.
  • the supporting member and the bracket are arranged side by side along a length direction of the storage box.
  • a length of the bracket is 1/2 to 2/3 of the length of the storage box.
  • the storage box has a flange adapted to be supported on the bracket and the supporting member, the flange includes a first flange supported on the bracket and a second flange that is not supported on the bracket, and the supporting member is supported on a middle part of the second flange.
  • the flange has a second reinforcing rib disposed at least toward the bracket and the supporting member.
  • a shorter and fixed length bracket can be matched with the supporting member to support the storage box with a different length, to be adapted to the storage compartment with a different depth.
  • the length of the bracket is shorter than the length of the storage box, materials and costs can be saved.
  • the bracket can be prevented from being easily deformed due to long-term bearing, which helps the bracket to maintain horizontal during use, to stably support the storage box.
  • the length of the bracket does not need to be changed when the bracket is applied to the storage box with a different length, processes of redesigning, injection molding, and manufacturing due to the change of the length of the bracket can be omitted, so that the bracket is highly universal and can be mass-produced, and time, effort, and costs can be saved.
  • the supporting member is detachably mounted on the slide rail and has an adjustable position, the supporting member can support the storage box with a different length through the same slide rail.
  • a maj ority of weight of the storage box can be supported on the bracket by setting the length of the bracket to 1/2 to 2/3 of the length of the storage box, to help ensure bearing strength of the storage box, thereby avoiding deformation or shaking of the storage box due to overloading.
  • a drawer door body of a refrigeration device generally is in sliding connection to an inner side wall of a storage compartment through a bracket and a guide rail assembly, where the bracket is further adapted to support a storage box accommodated in the storage compartment.
  • a length of the bracket needs to change with a length of the storage box and a depth of the storage compartment.
  • a new bracket needs to be redesigned, injection molded, and manufactured.
  • the refrigeration device includes: a storage compartment, a door body adapted to open or close the storage compartment, and a storage box accommodated in the storage compartment, and a bracket mounted on the door body, a slide rail in sliding connection to the bracket and the storage compartment, and a supporting member mounted on the slide rail, where a length of the bracket is less than a length of the storage box, and the supporting member and the bracket together support the storage box.
  • a shorter and fixed length bracket can be matched with the supporting member to support the storage box with a different length, to be adapted to the storage compartment with a different depth.
  • the length of the bracket is shorter than the length of the storage box, materials and costs can be saved. Because the length of the bracket is shorter, the bracket can be prevented from being easily deformed due to long-term bearing, which helps the bracket to maintain horizontal during use, to stably support the storage box. Because the length of the bracket does not need to be changed when the bracket is applied to the storage box with a different length, processes of redesigning, injection molding, and manufacturing due to the change of the length of the bracket can be omitted, so that the bracket is highly universal and can be mass-produced, and time, effort, and costs can be saved.

  • the guide rail assembly includes a fixed rail (not shown) mounted on the inner side wall of the storage compartment 100 and a slide rail 500 in sliding connection to the fixed rail.
  • the bracket 400 is mounted on one side of the door body 200 facing inside the storage compartment 100, and fixedly connected to the slide rail 500.
  • the bracket 400 may slide outward relative to the fixed rail with the slide rail 500, to drive the door body 200 to pull outward relative to the storage compartment 100 to open the storage compartment 100, or slide inward relative to the fixed rail with the slide rail 500, to drive the door body 200 to push inward relative to the storage compartment 100 to close the storage compartment 100.
  • the storage box 300 is supported on the bracket 400.
  • the storage box 300 has an opening 320 opened upward and a pair of flanges 310 disposed along an edge of the opening 320.
  • the pair of flanges 310 of the storage box 300 are respectively disposed toward the pair of inner side walls of the storage compartment 100, and both extend along a sliding direction of the bracket 400.

  • the pair of flanges 310 of the storage box 300 are respectively supported on the pair of brackets 400.
  • the extending direction of the pair of flanges 310 may be used as a length direction of the storage box 300, and a length of the storage box 300 is recorded as l .
  • a length of the bracket 400 is less than the length / of the storage box 300.
  • the length of the bracket 400 may be 1/2 to 2/3 of the length / of the storage box 300. Therefore, a majority of weight of the storage box 300 can be supported on the bracket 400 to help ensure bearing strength of the storage box 300, thereby avoiding deformation or shaking of the storage box 300 due to overloading.
  • the refrigeration device 10 further includes a supporting member 600 mounted on the slide rail 500.
  • the supporting member 600 is adapted to support the storage box 300 together with the bracket 400.
  • one side of the storage box 300 close to the door body 200 and facing the storage compartment 100 is supported on the bracket 400.
