Refrigerator and liquid storage device of same

Abstract

The invention relates to a refrigerator and a liquid storage device of same; the liquid storage device comprises a liquid storage box and a liquid storage case; a liquid storage room is limited in the liquid storage box; the liquid storage case comprises a liquid injection port and a liquid charging port, and is rotatably arranged on the liquid storage box around a vertical axis, thus allowing the liquid injection port to have an initial position on the inner side of the outer surface of the liquid storage box side wall and a liquid injection position on the outer side of the outer surface of the liquid storage box side wall; the liquid injection port turns to the liquid injection position, thus receiving external liquid entering the liquid storage room through the liquid injection port and the liquid charging port; in addition, the invention also relates to the refrigerator having the liquid storage device; the refrigerator and the liquid storage device can conveniently carry out liquid injection operation, and certain space above the liquid storage device in the refrigerator is not needed, thus improving refrigerator inner storage space utilization rate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of refrigerators, in particular to a refrigerator and a liquid storage device for the refrigerator. Background technique [0002] At present, with the popularization of refrigerators with water intake function, the liquid storage device in the refrigerator has become an indispensable part. In the prior art, in order to facilitate the user to manually add water to the liquid storage device, a water injection hole is usually provided on the sealing cover of the liquid storage device, and a sealing cover is provided at the water injection hole. The user needs to remove the liquid storage device from the storage when filling water. To take out the compartment, the sealing cover needs to be opened or removed, and then water is injected into the liquid storage device. Obviously, this method is inconvenient to operate. [0003] In addition, in order to facilitate water injection from the water injection hole, it is necessar...

Problems solved by technology

In the prior art, in order to facilitate the user to manually add water to the liquid storage device, a water injection hole is usually provided on the sealing cover of the liquid storage device, and a sealing cover is provided at the water injection hole. The user needs to remove the liquid storage device from the storage when filling water. The compartment needs to be taken out, and the sealing cover needs to be opened or removed, and then water is injected into the liquid storage device. Obviously, this method is inconvenient to operate

[0003] In addition, in order to facilitate water injection from the water injection hole, it is necessary to reserve a certain space in the refrigerator storage compartment above the liquid storage device, so that the liquid storage device does not need to be taken out from the storage compartment, but the reserved space is not used for water injection. When there is no other use, it takes up precious storage space in the refrigerator, resulting in a low utilization rate of storage space in the refrigerator
