根据下文结合附图对本发明具体实施例的详细描述，本领域技术人员将会更加明了本发明的上述以及其他目的、优点和特征。
附图说明

具体实施方式
本发明首先提供一种用于制冷设备的熟成抽屉，用于供待熟成物在其内熟成。也就是说，本发明的熟成抽屉应用于制冷设备，可有效地利用制冷设备内的低温环境促使熟成抽屉内的待熟成物熟成，不需要设置专门的控温装置和控湿装置，简化了熟成抽屉的结构，降低了其成本。
图1是根据本发明一个实施例的熟成抽屉的示意性结构图，图2是根据本发明一个实施例的熟成抽屉的示意性结构分解图，图3是根据本发明一个实施例的熟成抽屉的示意性结构剖视图，图4是根据本发明一个实施例的熟成抽屉在俯视状态下的示意性结构剖视图。参加图1至图4，本发明的熟成抽屉1包括外壳10、设置于外壳10内的至少一个风道板20以及循环风机30。
外壳10和至少一个风道板20之间限定有处于风道板20内侧的熟成室40以及至少一个围设在熟成室40的至少部分周向外侧的送风风道50，熟成室40与送风风道50通过开设在风道板20上的沿送风风道50内的气流流动方向排布的多个送风口21相连通。送风风道50围设在熟成室40的周向外围，以便于从熟成室40的周向向熟成室40内送风，送风范围更广，更便于均匀地吹送熟成室40内的待熟成物。
循环风机30配置成受控地促使送风风道50内的气流经多个送风口21流向熟成室40。熟成室40内的气流通过回风口14返回送风风道50。由此，在循环风机30的驱动下，气流在送风风道50和熟成室40之间循环流动。本发明在熟成抽屉1内额外地设置一循环风机30，使得熟成室40内的送风不受制冷设备内的风机状态的限制，从而持续地向熟成室40内吹风，从而获得较佳的熟成效果。具体地，循环风机30可以从熟成室40内吸风，并朝向送风风道50送风，使得送风风道50内的气流在负压作用下流向熟成室40；循环风机30也可以从送风风道50吸风，并朝熟成室40送风，使得熟成室 40内的气流在负压作用下流向送风风道50。
特别地，送风风道50的至少与多个送风口21直接连通的送风区段51配置成沿其内的气流流动方向渐缩，以使得气流以均匀的流速流经该送风区段51内的各个位置。需要说明的是，送风风道50的与多个送风口21直接连通的送风区段意指用于限定送风风道50的风道板20上开设有送风口21的位置所对应的区段。风道板20上没有开设送风口21的位置所对应的送风风道50的区段不是其送风区段。
本发明将熟成抽屉1内形成的送风风道50的送风区段51设置成沿其内的气流流动方向渐缩，以使得气流以均匀的流速流经送风区段51内的各个位置，也就是说，该送风区段51内的上游区域、下游区域、中部区域内的气流流速都均衡，从而使得经与送风区段51的上游区域连通的送风口21流入熟成室40的气流速度、经与该送风区段51的下游区域连通的送风口21流入熟成室40的气流速度、以及经与该送风区段51的中部区域连通的送风口21流入熟成室40的气流速度都相同，从而确保了熟成室40在该送风区段51的延伸方向上的各处的送风都均匀，避免了气流流速沿其流动方向逐渐减小导致熟成室40内部分区域的气流吹送过小导致熟成效果差的问题。
在一些实施例中，送风区段51具有在气流流动方向上处于上游的始端口511和处于下游的末端口512，始端口511与末端口512的过流面积的比值与送风区段51的长度呈正相关性。也就是说，送风区段51的长度越长，其始端口511与末端口512的过流面积的比值越大，即送风区段51渐缩的程度越大、效果越明显，以确保邻近末端口512的送风口21处的气流具有足够大的流速。送风区段51的长度越短，其始端口511与末端口512的过流面积的比值越小，即送风区段51渐缩的程度越小、渐缩效果越不明显，避免送风区段51的过流面积减小的过快导致气流阻力较大、流速不均的问题。
本发明将送风区段51沿其内的气流流动方向渐缩的程度与送风区段51的长度匹配起来，更容易在各个送风口21处形成均衡的送风速度。
在一些实施例中，送风风道50还具有与循环风机30直接连通的导风区段52，导风区段52位于送风区段51的上游。也即是，循环风机30采用向送风风道50内吹风的方式驱动气流循环流动。
在一些实施例中，循环风机30设置于外壳10的后侧，用户不易感受到 循环风机30运行时产生的噪音，并且便于利用一个循环风机30同时向多个送风风道50送风，以提高熟成室40内的送风均匀性。
进一步地，风道板20呈L型，且包括位于外壳10内的后部的后侧板23和位于外壳10内的其中一个横向侧部的横向侧板24，后侧板23与外壳10的后壁11之间限定形成导风区段52，横向侧板24与外壳10的其中一个横向侧壁12之间限定形成送风区段51。由此，形成的导风区段52沿横向延伸，形成的送风区段51沿前后方向延伸，送风区段51内的气流流动方向为从后向前，送风区段51的过流面积从后往前地渐缩。
更进一步地，送风口21开设在横向侧板24上。具体地，多个送风口21可沿前后方向分布在横向侧板24上，以便于从前后方向上的各个位置朝向熟成室40内送风，提高了熟成室40在前后方向上的送风均匀性。
可以理解的是，送风区段51沿其内的气流流动方向渐缩的实现方式有多种。优选地，在一些实施例中，外壳10的其中一个横向侧壁12沿前后方向平直地延伸，风道板20的横向侧板24从后往前地朝逐渐靠近该横向侧壁12的方向倾斜延伸，以使得送风区段51从后往前地渐缩。
本发明将外壳10的横向侧壁12设置成在前后方向上平直延伸，仅将风道板20的横向侧板设置成从往前地朝向横向侧壁12倾斜，一方面，可满足送风区段51从后往前地渐缩的要求，以使得送风区段51内各区域的气流流速均衡，另一方面，外壳10的外轮廓更加规则化，便于在熟成抽屉1装配到制冷设备时与制冷设备的结构相匹配，减少制冷设备内空间的限制和浪费。
在一些实施例中，风道板20的横向侧板24与外壳10的其中一个横向侧壁12之间的夹角α为范围在3°～15°之间的任一值。例如，横向侧板24与横向侧壁12之间的夹角可以为3°、5°、7°、9°、11°、13°或15°。若横向侧板24与横向侧壁12之间的夹角过大，说明送风区段51渐缩的程度较为明显，横向侧板24和横向侧壁12对气流产生的阻力较大，风速损失较大。若横向侧板24与横向侧壁12之间的夹角过小，说明送风区段51渐缩的程度过于缓和，不利于通过送风区段51渐缩的形状达到平衡气流流速的目的。
在一些实施例中，风道板20的数量为两个，两个风道板20分别与外壳10之间限定形成一送风风道50。两个风道板20对称地布置在外壳10内的 横向两侧，以使得形成的两个送风风道50围设在熟成室40的横向两侧和后侧。由此，可以通过对称的两个送风风道50从熟成室40的横向两侧同时朝熟成室40内吹风，提高了气流在熟成40横向上的送风均匀性，从而提高了待熟成物的熟成效果。
图5是根据本发明一个实施例的外壳的示意性结构图。在一些实施例中，外壳10的后壁11具有朝前凸出的凸出部13，以在凸出部13的后侧形成处于外壳10外部的容置空间16，循环风机30设置于该容置空间16内。也就是说，循环风机30安装在外壳10的外部，利用外壳10自身的壳体壁将循环风机30与熟成室40分隔开，省去了在外壳10内额外设置分隔板等部件，简化了熟成抽屉1的结构和装配过程，提高了装配效率。
在一些实施例中，凸出部13的前侧设有用于供熟成室40内的气流返回循环风机30的回风口14，凸出部13的横向两侧分别开设有一出风口15，两个出风口15分别与两个送风风道50连通。由此，熟成室40内的气流可经回风口14流向循环风机30，从而在循环风机30的驱动下分别返回两个送风风道50。
进一步地，循环风机30为离心风机，且包括蜗壳31和设置在蜗壳31内的离心叶轮32。蜗壳31的横向两侧分别形成一气流出口33，两个气流出口33分别与两个出风口15连通，以分别朝向两个送风风道40送风。
本发明利用一个离心风机同时向两个送风风道40送风，从而促使气流分别经熟成室40的横向两侧同时流向熟成室40内，既达到了均匀送风的效果，又简化了熟成抽屉1的结构。
进一步地，蜗壳31的顶部为中部向上凸出的圆弧形结构。也就是说，蜗壳31内的顶部形成了圆弧形的导风结构，以引导气流分别朝向横向两侧的两个气流出口33流动，减小了气流流动阻力和风量的损失。
进一步地，蜗壳31的底部接近平面或为中部向下凹陷的圆弧形结构，蜗壳31底部凹陷的程度小于其顶部向上凸出的程度，以尽可能地减小循环风机30占用的空间。
在一些实施例中，熟成室40内设有用于搁置待熟成物的置物网架70，置物网架70与外壳10的底壁间隔设置，以在置物网架70的下方留有气流流动空间，便于气流吹向搁置在置物网架70上的待熟成物的下表面，从而确保了待熟成物的下表面均能够尽快地达到风干效果。
具体地，置物网架70具有多个镂空的网孔，镂空设置的置物网架70还减少了待熟成物与置物网架70之间的接触面积，避免了待熟成物的部分表面因接触不到气流而腐败变质。
进一步地，回风口14的底部边缘的高度低于置物网架70的高度，有利于在置物网架70下方流动的气流经回风口14的底部区域返回送风风道50，减少了底部气流的流动阻力，进一步提高了气流流动速度。
本发明还提供一种制冷设备，图6是根据本发明一个实施例的制冷设备的示意性结构图。本发明的制冷设备100包括箱体2，箱体2内限定有用于储存物品的储物间室3。特别地，制冷设备100还包括上述任一实施例所描述的熟成抽屉1，熟成抽屉1用于供待熟成物在其内熟成，且熟成抽屉1设置于储物间室3中。集成有熟成抽屉1的制冷设备100不但具有传统的低温环境下的储物保鲜功能，而且还具有熟成功能，丰富了制冷设备100的功能。
具体地，熟成抽屉1可推拉地设置于储物间室3中，且具有顶部开口，以便于用户取放物品。
进一步地，储物间室3可以为储藏温度范围在0～8℃之间的冷藏间室，冷藏间室比较适宜待熟成物对熟成温度的要求。并且，冷藏间室内的储藏湿度通常比室内环境的湿度高，比较适宜待熟成物对熟成湿度的要求。即使熟成抽屉1内的湿度不合适，也便于通过冷藏间室内的气流进行调节。因此，将熟成抽屉1设置在冷藏间室中，可以充分地利用冷藏间室自身的温湿度条件，最大限度地降低了成本。
进一步地，箱体2还可以限定有冷冻间室和/或变温间室。冷藏间室、冷冻间室和变温间室分别通过可枢转地设置在箱体2前侧的门体选择性地敞开或关闭。
在一些实施例中，本发明的制冷设备100可以为普通的冷藏冷冻装置。例如，制冷设备1还可以为冰箱、冰柜、冷柜等家用或商用的制冷设备。
在另一些实施例中，本发明的制冷设备100还可以为餐边柜、酒柜、冷藏箱等对温度和湿度有较高控制精度要求的其他类型的制冷设备。
此外，还需要说明的是，本发明实施例中所称的“横”、“纵”、“前”、“后”、“顶”、“底”等用于表示方位或位置关系的用语是以熟成抽屉1的实际使用状态为基准而言的，这些用语仅是为了便于描述和理解本发明的技术方案，而不是指示或暗示所指的装置或不见必须具有特定的方位、以特 定的方位构造和操作，因此不能理解为对本发明的限制。
此外，还需要说明的是，在本发明的描述中，除非另有明确的规定和限定，术语“安装”、“相连”、“连接”应做广义理解，例如，可以是固定连接，也可以是可拆卸连接，或一体地连接；可以是直接相连，也可以通过中间媒介间接相连，还可以是两个元件内部的连通。对于本领域技术人员而言，可根据具体情况理解上述术语在本发明中的具体含义。

  6. 根据权利要求5所述的熟成抽屉，其中，
    所述风道板的横向侧板与所述外壳的所述其中一个横向侧壁之间的夹角为范围在3°～15°之间的任一值。
  7. 根据权利要求4-6中任一项所述的熟成抽屉，其中，
    所述风道板的数量为两个，两个所述风道板分别与所述外壳之间限定形成一所述送风风道；且
    两个所述风道板对称地布置在所述外壳内的横向两侧，以使得形成的两个所述送风风道围设在所述熟成室的横向两侧和后侧。
  8. 根据权利要求7所述的熟成抽屉，其中，
    所述外壳的后壁具有朝前凸出的凸出部，以在所述凸出部的后侧形成处于所述外壳外部的容置空间，所述循环风机设置于所述容置空间内；
    所述凸出部的前侧设有用于供所述熟成室内的气流返回所述循环风机的回风口，所述凸出部的横向两侧分别开设有一出风口，两个所述出风口分别与两个所述送风风道连通。
  9. 根据权利要求8所述的熟成抽屉，其中，
    所述循环风机为离心风机，且包括蜗壳和设置在所述蜗壳内的离心叶轮；
    所述蜗壳的横向两侧分别形成一气流出口，两个所述气流出口分别与两个所述出风口连通；
    所述蜗壳的顶部为中部向上凸出的圆弧形结构。
  10. 一种制冷设备，包括：
    箱体，其内限定有用于储存物品的储物间室；以及
