Embodiment 1

[0018] Such as figure 1 As shown, a hinge device for a refrigerator includes a hinge bracket 1, the hinge bracket is composed of a mounting part 1-a fixed on the main body of the refrigerator, and a support part 1-b for supporting the weight of the refrigerator door 7. The hinge installation part 1-a is provided with a through hole 3 for the water pipe to pass through, and also includes a detachable bottom plate 6 that fits with the bottom surface of the hinge bracket installation part 1-a, and a pipeline integrally formed with it is provided under the bottom plate 6 The placement part 2, the pipe placement part 2 extends toward the ground, and has a "J" or "L" shape in cross section. At the same time, it also includes a guide groove 5, which is inclined from the through hole 3 of the mounting part 1-a of the hinge bracket to the pipe placement part 2, and the end of the guide groove 5 is spaced from the pipe placement part 2. In this embodiment, a ferrule 4 for fixing the bo...

Embodiment 2

[0022] Such as image 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a hinge device for a refrigerator includes a hinge bracket 1, and the hinge bracket 1 is composed of a mounting part 1-a fixed on the main body of the refrigerator and a support part 1-b for supporting the weight of the refrigerator door 7. The hinge installation part 1-a is provided with a through hole 3 for water pipes to pass through, and an open pipe placement part 2 integrally formed with it is provided under the installation part 1-a of the hinge bracket. The part extends to the ground, and the section is "J" or "L". When this component passes through the processing station of the assembly line, the water pipe 0 in the door body of the refrigerator door 7 passes through the through hole 3, and joins with the water pipe (not shown) in the lower part of the box body, and then in the pipe placement part 2 Push up the position of the water pipe 0 into the pipe placement part 2 to complete the installation of the water pipe. ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a component for a refrigerator, in particular to a hinge device for the refrigerator. The hinge device for the refrigerator is provided for solving the problems existing in mounting a water pipe of the refrigerator in the prior art. Through the additional arrangement of a J-shaped or L-shaped pipeline placing part, a water pipe fixing device can be mounted in advance. Therefore, the hinge device has the advantages that the production process is simplified; the production difficulty is reduced; and the production efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a refrigerator component, in particular to a refrigerator hinge device. Background technique [0002] At present, the hinge device for a refrigerator only includes the hinge bracket part, which is composed of an installation part fixed on the main body of the refrigerator, and a support part for supporting the weight of the refrigerator door. If you run into a refrigerator with a water dispenser on the door, you need to connect the water pipes in the refrigerator body to the water pipes in the door body. In the current technology, the water pipes are usually connected and placed directly under the refrigerator body. This open storage method not only affects the appearance, but also the water pipes are easily damaged. If an additional baffle or box is added to the bottom of the refrigerator to protect the water pipes, then the usable area of ​​the door will be reduced and the design of the door will be affected. Another way is...
