Example 1

FIG. 1 is a schematic structural view of the interior fixing device of the present invention. The fixing device is an air column bag 10, and is provided with a plurality of air bags 11, an inflation port 12, a sealing member 13 and an air inlet passage 14. The airbag 11 has a rectangular shape before being inflated, and each airbag 11 is provided with a heat seal line, so that each airbag 11 is independent of each other and does not affect each other. Even if one of the airbags 11 is damaged, the other airbags 11 are not affected, and thus a small number of airbags 11 are damaged. The gas also does not affect the fixing effect of the air column bag 10. The inflation port 12 is connected to the intake passage 14, and each of the airbags 11 is in communication with the intake passage 14, respectively. A portion of each of the air cells 11 communicating with the air inlet passage 14 is provided with a separate sealing member 13. In the present embodiment, the sealing member 13 is a one-way air stop valve film. In use, the air intake passage 14 is inflated through the inflation port 12, and the gas in the intake passage 14 enters each of the airbags 11 due to the pressure difference. After the pressure is equal to the inside and outside of the airbag 11, the gas is no longer entered, and the air is provided at the open end of the airbag 11 for one-way air stop. The valve membrane seals the gas within the bladder. The width of the air bag 11 should not be too large, and the excessive width will affect the density of the air column formed after the air bag 11 is inflated.

It should be noted that the refrigerator interior mainly includes partitions, drawers and the like. In the process of transporting the refrigerator, due to the large number of interior accessories of the refrigerator, it is easy to cause various faults such as damage to the inner liner of the refrigerator, interior decoration, and interior damage. The utility model uses a general-purpose air column bag to fix the refrigerator interior fittings, and uses the interference fit between the air column and the inner wall of the interior of the refrigerator and the inner wall of the refrigerator to fix the movement, and the fixed interior can not be displaced in the up and down direction, and the friction of the gas column is used to prevent the inner portion. The front and rear displacements.

Among them, although the airbags 11 are independent of each other, the single airbag 11 does not affect other air cylinders when the air leakage occurs, but the larger the width of the airbag 11, the larger the impact area when the single airbag 11 leaks. Since the fixing of the interior of the air column bag 10 is mainly based on the interference fit between the air bag 10 and the inner wall of the refrigerator, if the air leakage area of the air bag 10 is too large, the air bag 10 and the interior and the inner wall of the refrigerator will be affected. The effect of the interference fit between the air bag 10 loses the protective effect on the interior of the refrigerator. In the present embodiment, the width of the airbag 11 before inflation is 30 mm. During actual use, the width of the airbag 11 before inflation should not exceed 30 mm. The length of the long side of the air bag 11 is greater than or equal to the length of the edge of the interior of the airbag to contact it to facilitate inflation and provide better protection for the interior.

In addition, the interior fixing device of the present invention firstly fixes the air column bag to the inside of the refrigerator by using the first piece of the partition plate so as not to slide down, and then sequentially installs the partition plate and the drawer to ensure at least one interior and the refrigerator. The air column bag 10 is sandwiched between the interiors. Next, inflation is performed through the inflation port, and the gas enters each of the air cells through the intake passage. After filling, the airbag is locked with a seal. 2 is a schematic view showing the installation of the refrigerator of the present invention. The air column bag 10 is first fixed to the inside of the refrigerator 20 by the first partition plate 21 so as not to slip. Then, all the partitions 21 and the drawers 22 are sequentially installed. In this embodiment, each of the partition plates 21 is disposed between the two airbags 11, that is, on the heat seal line between the two airbags for better positioning effect. Finally, the inflation is performed through the inflation port 12 as needed, and the gas enters each of the air cells 11 through the intake passage 14. After being filled with air, the seal 13 locks the air bag. In this embodiment, the sealing member 13 is a one-way air stop valve film. After the inflation is completed, the one-way air stop valve film automatically closes the portion where the air bag 11 communicates with the air inlet passage 14 without additional action, and the air lock is in one step.

The effect after inflation is as shown in FIG. 3, and the airbag 11 which is inflated and inflated fills the gap between the refrigerator interior and the refrigerator to prevent the interior of the refrigerator from being displaced. It should be noted that the number of the partitions 21, the length and width of the air bag 10, and the number of the airbags 11 may be increased or decreased according to actual conditions, the distance between the pieces of the partition plates 21, the partitions 21 and the drawers 22 The distance between them is not fixed and can be adjusted according to the actual situation.

After being installed and inflated through the above steps, the airbag 11 is inflated to fill the gap between the partition 21 and the drawer 22 and the inner tank of the refrigerator 20, so that the interior positions of the refrigerator 20 are fixed, and the displacement is not easily occurred during transportation. Prevents shocks and collisions from causing damage to the inner liner of the refrigerator, interior trimming, and interior damage.

It should be noted that the present invention is different from the currently used protection mode for the interior of the refrigerator. The present invention uses a universal air column bag fixing device to fix the refrigerator interior fittings, and utilizes the air column to position the interior. It has been improved from the traditional buffer to fixed, which better avoids damage to the refrigerator and the interior caused by collisions and impacts that may occur during transportation.

At the same time, the existing refrigerator interior buffer device is difficult to be recycled, and its material EPE\EPS is high in cost, difficult to degrade, and easily causes environmental pollution. The universal gas column bag fixing device of the invention has low material cost, is green and environmentally friendly, can be recycled and reused, and does not burden the environment.

Moreover, since the refrigerator interior fittings have different shapes, the cushioning device for wrapping needs to be processed into different shapes correspondingly, resulting in time-consuming production, inconvenient use, and the separate cushioning device is inconvenient for packaging and disassembly. The air column bag fixing device used in the invention has simple production and processing process, convenient use of the finished product, is not affected by the size of the refrigerator, the size, shape and installation position of the interior fitting, and is convenient to install.

It is apparent that the above-described embodiments of the present invention are merely illustrative of the present invention and are not intended to limit the embodiments of the present invention. Other variations or modifications of the various forms may be made by those skilled in the art in light of the above description. There is no need and no way to exhaust all of the implementations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and scope of the invention are intended to be included within the scope of the appended claims.
