Refrigerator with sliding side door

Abstract

The invention discloses a refrigerator with a sliding side opening door. The refrigerator comprises a refrigerator body and a door body, wherein a sliding matching structure is arranged between the refrigerator body and the door body; the sliding matching structure at least comprises a slideway arranged on the refrigerator body or the door body, and a sliding block which is connected to the other one of the refrigerator body and the door body and can move along the slideway; the sliding bock is supported by a connection rod; the connection rod and the extending direction of the slideway form a certain included angle, and the included angle can be changed along with the movement of the door body; when the included angle is an initial value, the door body is closed; when the included angle exceeds the initial value and less than 90 degrees, the door body slides relative to the contact surface of the refrigerator body; and when the included angle is equal to 90 degrees, the door body is separated from the contact surface of the refrigerator body. In a closed state, the door body of the refrigerator is in surface contact with the refrigerator body, and the opening resistance is relatively high, so that a kid in a family can be effectively prevented from randomly opening the refrigerator door; and the process of opening the door body of the refrigerator is smooth without any blockage as the door body is separated from the contact surface of the refrigerator body.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of refrigerators, in particular to a refrigerator with a sliding side door. Background technique [0002] Refrigerator is one of the necessary large electrical appliances for home life. Since its inception, it has been favored by consumers. Over the years, with the improvement of consumer demand, the volume of refrigerators has been increasing, and the appearance of refrigerators has become more and more exquisite. However, the opening method of the refrigerator door has always been relatively simple, and most of them adopt the right-hand door method or the left-right door door method. Both of these methods belong to the hinge door opening method, which not only requires an idle space of 1 to 1.5 meters in front of the refrigerator, which is not conducive to the use of space; but also the moment the door is opened to take things, the airflow at the door is greatly disturbed, and the hot and cold air is violently conve...

Problems solved by technology

But it also creates a new problem: because in the two-way sliding process, the box door is always in surface contact with the track provided by the box body, so the resistance received throughout the whole process is consistent, and the defect that the sliding resistance remains unchanged throughout the whole process is that if If the resistance is too large, the process of opening the refrigerator door will not be smooth and the operation will be inconvenient; if the resistance is small, the refrigerator door will not be able to maintain a closed state, and unintentional touches may cause the door to open, which is especially easy to be used as a tool for mischief by children. There are potential security risks
