This is only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that a device or an element referred to must has a particular orientation, and be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be construed as a limitation of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1, the present invention provides a refrigerator 10, which may include a refrigerator body 100, a main door 200 and a secondary door 300.

A first storage space 110 is defined inside the refrigerator body 100, the first storage space 110 has a first opening forward, and the main door 200 is pivotally connected to an outer side of the refrigerator body 100 to open and close the first opening. A second storage space 210 is defined inside the main door 200, the second storage space 210 has a second opening forward, and the secondary door 300 is pivotally connected to an outer side of the main door 200 to open and close the second opening.

In the embodiment, both the first storage space 110 inside the refrigerator body 100 and the second storage space 210 inside the main door 200 can be used by a user to store food, and the user can choose to store articles in the first storage space 110 or the second storage space 210 according to the use frequency or volume size of the articles. For example, the user can store some articles, which are more frequently used and occupy small spaces, in the second storage space 210, and store some articles, that are less frequently used and occupy large spaces, in the first storage space 110, thus avoiding the user from frequently opening door bodies and further reducing heat loss. Moreover, a storage area of the refrigerator 10 can be divided by the first storage space 110 or the second storage space 210, which is helpful for the user to sort the articles. In some preferred embodiments, the first storage space 110 may also be a refrigerating room of the refrigerator 10.

In the embodiment, the refrigerator 10 may further include a first magnet 120, a second magnet 310 and an electromagnetic assembly.

The first magnet 120 is disposed in an area of the refrigerator body 100 opposite the main door 200; the second magnet 310 is disposed in an area of the secondary door 300 opposite the main door 200; and the electromagnetic assembly is disposed on the main door 200 and configured to controllably or operably generate a magnetic attraction force for attracting the first magnet 120 or a magnetic attraction force for attracting the second magnet 310.

As mentioned in the background art section, in the prior art, in order to seal a gap between the inner and outer door bodies, a magnetic sealing strip is generally used, so that the main door is adsorbed on the refrigerator body by means of the sealing strip in a closed state, and the secondary door is adsorbed on the main door. However, when in use, the secondary door is often brought out when the user opens the main door, or the main door is brought out when the secondary door is opened, which affects the user's sense of use experience.

In order to overcome the above-mentioned defect in the prior art, in the refrigerator 10 of the embodiment, the first magnet 120 is disposed in the area of the refrigerator body 100 opposite the main door 200, the second magnet 310 is disposed in the area of the secondary door 300 opposite the main door 200, and the electromagnetic assembly is disposed on the main door 200. Before the user wants to open the main door 200 or the secondary door 300, the electromagnetic assembly can be activated to generate a magnetic attraction force, so that the door body that does not need to be opened is enabled to be in a closed state. For example, before the user wants to open the main door 200, the electromagnetic assembly can generate a magnetic attraction force for attracting the secondary door 300, so that the main door 200 and the secondary door 300 are enabled to form a whole. When the user opens the main door 200, the secondary door 300 will not be opened, which prevents the articles placed in the second storage space 210 from being brought out by inertia, thereby improving the user's sense of use experience. For another example, before the user wants to open the secondary door 300, the electromagnetic assembly can generate a magnetic attraction force for attracting the main door 200, so that the main door 200 and the refrigerator body 100 are enabled to form a whole. When the user opens the secondary door 300, the main door 200 will not be opened, which can not only prevent the articles in the first storage space 110 from being brought out by inertia, but also avoids the heat loss of the refrigerator 10.

Referring to FIGS. 1 to 3, in some embodiments of the present application, the electromagnetic assembly may further include a first electromagnet 220 and a second electromagnet 230. The first electromagnet 220 is disposed at a side of the main door 200 facing the refrigerator body 100, and the second electromagnet 230 is disposed at a side of the main door 200 facing the secondary door 300.

Specifically, a mounting groove (not shown in the figures) opposite to the first magnet 120 is formed at the side of the main door 200 facing the refrigerator body 100, and another mounting groove (not shown in the figures) opposite to the second magnet 310 is also formed at the side of the main door 200 facing the secondary door 300. The first electromagnet 220 and the second electromagnet 230 are respectively disposed in the mounting grooves.

Before the user wants to open the main door 200, a wire of the second electromagnet 230 is energized, and the second electromagnet 230 attracts the second magnet 310, so that the secondary door 300 remains closed; and before the user wants to open the secondary door 300, to a wire of the first electromagnet 220 is energized, and the first electromagnet 220 attracts the first magnet 120, so that the main door 200 remains closed.

In the embodiment, the current directions of the first electromagnet 220 and the second electromagnet 230 can also be configured to be fixed when they are energized, so that the directions of magnetic poles generated by the first electromagnet 220 and the second electromagnet 230 after being energized are not changed. For example, after the first electromagnet 220 is energized, an N pole of the magnetic poles generated by the first electromagnet 220 is oriented toward the first magnet 120. At this time, a magnetic pole of the first magnet 120 opposite the first electromagnet 220 can be configured as an S pole, thus achieving mutual attraction after energization.

Of course, the first electromagnet 220 may also be configured such that after the first electromagnet 220 is energized, an S pole of the magnetic poles generated by the first electromagnet 220 is oriented toward the first magnet 120, and the first magnet 120 can be adjusted accordingly, which is not specifically limited in the present application. The same is true for the second electromagnet 230 and the second magnet 310.

In some alternative embodiments, the positions of the first magnet 120 and the first electromagnet 220 can be interchanged, and the positions of the second electromagnet 230 and the second magnet 310 can also be interchanged. That is, if the first magnet 120 and the second magnet 310 are disposed on the main door 200, and the first electromagnet 220 and the second electromagnet 230 are respectively disposed on the refrigerator body 100 and the secondary door 300, the technical effects in the above embodiments can also be achieved, so we will not repeat them here.

Referring to FIG. 4, the electromagnetic assembly may further include a first control switch 240 and a second control switch 250, where the first control switch 240 is electrically connected to the first electromagnet 220, the second control switch 250 is electrically connected to the second electromagnet 230, and the first control switch 240 and the second control switch 250 are configured to receive an on-off command from the user to perform on-off control on a circuit in which the first electromagnet 220 is located and a circuit in which the second electromagnet 230 is located.

Press-type switches may be adopted as the first control switch 240 and the second control switch 250. Before the user wants to open the main door 200, the circuit where the second electromagnet 230 is located can be formed into a closed circuit by operating the second control switch 250, so that the wire of the second electromagnet 230 is energized; and before the user wants to open the secondary door 300, the circuit where the first electromagnet 220 is located can be formed into a closed circuit by operating the first control switch 240, so that the wire of the first electromagnet 220 is energized.

In the embodiment, the first control switch 240 and the second control switch 250 may also be configured to automatically enable the circuit where the first electromagnet 220 is located and the circuit where the second electromagnet 230 is located to be formed into an open circuit after the user operates the first control switch and the second control switch for a preset time.

For example, before opening the main door 200, the user presses to operate the second control switch 250, the wire of the second electromagnet 230 is energized, and the main door 200 and the secondary door 300 form a whole. After the preset time has passed, it is assumed that the user has completed a pick-and-place action. At this time, there is no need to attach the main door 200 and the secondary door 300 together, and then the second control switch 250 can be restored to the state before the operation so as to enable the circuit where the second electromagnet 230 is located to be formed into the open circuit for preparing for the next operation; and furthermore, electricity is saved. Preferably, the above-mentioned preset time can also be configured to be any value within a range of 5-20 s, such as 5 s, 15 s, or 20 s.

Referring to FIG. 4, in the embodiment, the first control switch 240 may also be disposed on the secondary door 300, and the second control switch 250 may also be disposed on the main door 200.

Since the first control switch 240 controls the first electromagnet 220, when the user opens the secondary door 300, the first electromagnet 220 needs to be attracted to the first magnet 120 disposed on the refrigerator body 100 after being energized. Therefore, disposing the first control switch 240 on the secondary door 300 can facilitate the user to operate the first control switch 240 while opening the secondary door 300, and the first control switch does not need to be operated separately, which improves the user's sense of use experience. Similarly, disposing the second control switch 250 on the main door 200 is also based on the above inventive concept.

Referring to FIGS. 5 to 7, in other embodiments, the electromagnetic assembly may include a third electromagnet 260, and the third electromagnet 260 is disposed along a front-rear direction of the main door 200, and configured to change the magnetism of both ends of the third electromagnet 260 by changing the direction of its current; and the sides, facing the third electromagnet 260, of the first magnet 120 and the second magnet 310 have the same magnetism, so that the magnetic attraction force is always generated between the third electromagnet 260 and the first magnet 120 or between the third electromagnet 260 and the second magnet 310 in a current direction changing process of the third electromagnet 260.

Specifically, the main door 200 is provided with a groove (not shown in the figures) along the front-rear direction, and front and rear ends of the groove are respectively opposite to the first magnet 120 and the second magnet 310, and the third electromagnet 260 is disposed in the groove. Since the sides, facing the third electromagnet 260, of the first magnet 120 and the second magnet 310 have the same magnetism, after the third electromagnet 260 is energized, one of magnetic poles generated on a magnet core of the third electromagnet must generate a magnetic attraction force that is attracted to the first magnet 120 or the second magnet 310, and the other one is subject to a magnetic repulsion force.

For example, the side of the first magnet 120 facing the third electromagnet 260 is an N pole, and the side of the second magnet 310 facing the third electromagnet 260 is also an N pole. When the third electromagnet 260 is energized, if an S pole of the magnetic poles generated on the magnet core of the third electromagnet faces the first magnet 120, the first magnet 120 is attracted to the third electromagnet 260. On the contrary, the second magnet 310 is repelled from the third electromagnet 260. At this time, if the user wants to open the secondary door 300, not only are the main door 200 and the refrigerator body 100 allowed to form a whole, but the user can also easily open the secondary door 300 by using the repulsion force between the second magnet 310 and the third electromagnet 260.

Therefore, after the third electromagnet 260 is energized, no matter how the direction of the current loaded on the third electromagnet 260 changes, there must be a magnetic attraction force between the third electromagnet and one of the first magnet 120 and the second magnet 310 and a magnetic repulsion force between the third electromagnet and the other of the first magnet 120 and the second magnet 310. The user only needs to control the direction of the current loaded on the third electromagnet 260 to realize the conversion of objects on which the magnetic attraction force and the magnetic repulsion force act.

Further, referring to FIG. 8, the electromagnetic assembly may further include a first touch control unit 410, a second touch control unit 420, and a control unit 430.

The first touch control unit 410 is disposed on the main door 200, and configured to receive a command that a user opens the main door 200; the second touch control unit 420 is disposed on the secondary door 300, and configured to receive a command that a user opens the secondary door 300; the control unit 430 is electrically connected to the first touch control unit 410 and the second touch control unit 420, respectively, and configured to: receive a command signal sent by the first touch control unit 410, and control the current of the third electromagnet 260 to flow in a first direction, to make the third electromagnet 260 generate the magnetic attraction force for attracting the second magnet 310, so as to enable the secondary door 300 to be in a closed state under the action of the magnetic attraction force when the user opens the main door 200; or receive a command signal sent by the second touch control unit 420, and control the current of the third electromagnet 260 to flow in a direction opposite to the first direction, to make the third electromagnet 260 generate the magnetic attraction force for attracting the first magnet 120, so as to enable the main door 200 to be in a closed state under the action of the magnetic attraction force when the user opens the secondary door 300.

Specifically, the first touch control unit 410 and the second touch control unit 420 may be configured as sensors such as infrared sensors to sense the position of the user's hand. When the user's hand is close to a sensing area of the first touch control unit 410, the first touch control unit 410 sends a command signal that the user opens the main door 200 to the control unit 430. The control unit 430 can also be electrically connected with a power supply 440 for the third electromagnet 260 to control the power supply 440 to load current in the first direction to the third electromagnet 260. The loading current in the first direction here can be understood as a direction in which a magnetic attraction force can be generated between the third electromagnet 260 and the second magnet 310, and a magnetic repulsion force can be generated between the third electromagnet 260 and the first magnet 120. The magnetic attraction force is used to make the secondary door 300 and the main door 200 attract together, and the magnetic repulsion force is used to help open the main door 200. Similarly, when the control unit 430 controls the current in a second direction from the power supply 440 to the third electromagnet 260, the main door 200 and the refrigerator body 100 are attracted together, and the magnetic repulsion force is used to assist in opening the secondary door 300.

Further, the control unit 430 may also be configured to cut off the third electromagnet 260 after a preset time of applying current to the third electromagnet 260. For example, when the first touch control unit 410 senses the position of the user's hand, the control unit 430 applies current to the third electromagnet 260. After the preset time has passed, it is assumed that the user has completed the pick-and-place action. At this time, the control unit 430 controls the power supply 440 to be turned off to prepare for the next start. Preferably, the above-mentioned preset time may also be configured to be any value within a range of 2-5 s, such as 2 s, 3 s, or 5 s.

Referring to FIG. 9, in the embodiment, the main door 200 is provided with a first handle 270, and the secondary door 300 is provided with a second handle 320; and the first touch control unit 410 is disposed on the first handle 270, and the second touch control unit 420 is disposed on the second handle 320.

Because the first touch control unit 410 and the second touch control unit 420 can receive a signal indicating that the user's hand is approaching, and the first touch control unit 410 and the second touch control unit 420 are respectively disposed on the first handle 270 and the second handle 320, the user must operate the first handle 270 and the second handle 320 when opening the door, and at this time, the first touch control unit 410 and the second touch control unit 420 can also receive a door opening signal, which improves the reliability during door opening.

Since the first touch control unit 410 and the second touch control unit 420 are disposed on the first handle 270 and the second handle 320, in order to avoid misoperation, a distance between the first handle 270 and the second handle 320 is configured to be not less than 3 cm (e.g., 3 cm, 5 cm, 10 cm, etc.), thereby further improving the reliability during door opening.

Referring to FIG. 7, an area of the main door 200 opposite the refrigerator body 100 and an area of the main door 200 opposite the secondary door 300 are separately provided with a magnetic door seal 290, and the magnetic door seals 290 are configured such that the magnetic door seals 290 are used to attract the refrigerator body 100 and the secondary door 300 in a state where the third electromagnet 260 is not energized, to seal gaps between the main door 200 and the secondary door 300, and between the main door 200 and the refrigerator body 100.

Hereto, those skilled in the art should realize that although a plurality of exemplary embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described in detail herein, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, many other variations or modifications that conform to the principles of the present invention can still be directly determined or deduced from the contents disclosed in the present invention.
