As such, an opening degree of the cabinet 1 may be increased, opening space towards a user may be increased, and the problem that a drawer in the cabinet 1 may not be opened due to an interference of the door 2 may be avoided.
A distance between the center axis of the positioning shaft 12 when located at the fifth position 253 and the front wall 23 is equal to the distance between the center axis of the positioning shaft 12 when located at the second position 252 and the side wall 22. That is, when the door 2 is moved towards the pivoting side, the lateral ridge 24 is moved from front to back along the position where the side wall 22 is located when the door 2 is in the first state, and when the door 2 is opened through 90 degrees, the front wall 23 of the door 2 reaches the position where the side wall 22 is located in the first state.
The guiding groove 26 further has a seventh position 264 close to the side wall 22 compared with the sixth position 263, and has an arc shape between the seventh position 264 and the sixth position 263, a center line of the arc is the center axis of the positioning shaft 12 when located at the fifth position 253, and when the door 2 is further opened from the third state, the door 2 is rotated with the positioning shaft 12 located at the fifth position 253 as a rotating axis. The sixth position 263 may be understood as a rotation starting position, the seventh position 264 may be understood as a rotation ending position, and an angle of the arc is greater than or equal to 90 degrees. As such, the opening degree of the door 2 may be increased, such that the door 2 may be opened through 180 degrees or more.
Certainly, if in other embodiments, the positioning groove 25 does not have the fifth position 253 and the guiding groove 263 does not have the sixth position 263, the guiding groove 26 may be in an arc shape between the seventh position 264 and the third position 261, and a center line of the arc is a center axis of the positioning shaft 12 when located at the first position 251; that is, the door 2 is rotated with the positioning shaft 12 located at the first position 251 as a rotating axis when being in the second state and further opened.
In addition, as shown in
When the door 2 is in the first state, the distance between the center axis of the positioning shaft 12 and the front wall 23 is a, the distance between the center axis of the positioning shaft 12 and the side wall 22 of the door 2 is b, and the distance between the center axes of the positioning shaft 12 and the guiding shaft 13 is L. The distance between the center axis of the positioning shaft 12 and the lateral ridge 24 of the door 2 is C1. a, b and L are constant values, and the value of C1 varies with the position of the door 2.
In the first state, a2+b2=C12, and tan γ=a/b, wherein γ is an included angle formed by the center extension line of the positioning groove 25 and the front wall 23 of the door 2.
When the rotating angle of the door 2 is m, 0°≤m≤γ, and COS(γ−m)=b/C1, namely, C1=b/COS(γ−m);

In the refrigerator 100 according to the present embodiment, when the door 2 is opened to the second state from the first state, the door 2 is controlled to be moved in whole by a distance towards an end away from the pivoting side, so as to prevent the interference due to the protrusion of the lateral ridge 24 of the door 2; when the door 2 is opened to the third state from the second state, the door 2 is controlled to be moved in whole by a distance towards an end of the pivoting side, so as to increase the opening degree of the cabinet 1.
The guiding groove 26 does not have the seventh position, but has an eighth position 265 close to the side wall 22 compared with the sixth position 263 and a ninth position 266 located between the eighth position 265 and the sixth position 263, and the positioning groove 25 further has a tenth position 254. A transition groove 267 is formed between the ninth position 266 and the sixth position 263, the ninth position 266 is provided at an end of the transition groove 267 away from the sixth position 263 and may also be understood as the rotation starting position, and the eighth position 265 may be understood as the rotation ending position. A pivoting groove 255 is formed between the tenth position 254 and the fifth position 253, and the pivoting groove 255 and the transition groove 267 are provided in parallel. The pivoting groove 255 is communicated with the fifth position 253, and two ends of the transition groove 267 are connected with the sixth position 263 and the rotation starting position respectively.
An extension line of a connecting line between centers of the tenth position 254 and the fifth position 253 intersects with a connecting line between centers of the eighth position 265 and the ninth position 266, the guiding groove 26 is in an arc shape between the eighth position 265 and the ninth position 266, and a center line of the arc is a center axis of the positioning shaft 12 when located at the tenth position 254.
When the door is further opened from the third state, the positioning shaft 12 is moved from the fifth position 253 to the tenth position 254, the guiding shaft 13 is moved from the sixth position 263 to the ninth position 266, the door is rotated with the positioning shaft 12 located at the tenth position 254 as a rotating axis, and the guiding shaft 13 is moved towards the eighth position 265 from the ninth position 266.
In the present embodiment, the above-mentioned changes are made based on the first embodiment, and if other changes in the first embodiment do not conflict with the solution of the present embodiment, the solution of the present embodiment may also be applied to corresponding solutions. As in the first embodiment, when the guiding groove 26 does not have the sixth position 263 and the positioning groove 25 does not have the fifth position 253, the pivoting groove 255 is communicated with the first position 251, and the two ends of the transition groove 267 are connected with the third position 261 and the rotation starting position respectively. As such, the effect of preventing translation of the door may also be achieved.
The solution of the present embodiment may solve the problem that the door sideslips or shakes since a portion of the guiding groove 26 between the ninth position 266 and the eighth position 265 is parallel to the positioning groove 25 when the door is opened through 90 degrees and more.
The cabinet further comprises a limiting boss 27 provided between the guide block 21 and the hinge body 11 to space apart the guide block 21 from the hinge body 11. The limiting boss 27 has a front end close to the front wall 23 and a rear end away from the front wall 23, so that when the door is in the process of opening, the limiting boss 27 abuts against the hinge body 11 all the time.
The limiting boss 27 is integrally formed on the guide block 21, the number of the limiting boss 27 is two, and the limiting bosses are provided around the guiding groove 26 and the positioning groove 25 respectively.
In the present embodiment, by arranging the limiting bosses 27 to space apart the guide block 21 from the hinge body 11, in the process of opening and closing the door, the abrasion of the hinge body 11 or the guide block 21 is prevented, and further the influence on the balance of the door is avoided due to the mutual incision of a ridge of the hinge body 11 away from the cabinet and a ridge of the guide block 21 facing the cabinet.
The plural limiting balls 28 are provided around the guiding groove 26 and the positioning groove 25, and meanwhile distributed at different positions of the guide block 21; when the door is rotated, at least three of the limiting balls 28 abut against the hinge body 11 all the time to support the door and prevent the door from shaking, and the at least three of the limiting balls 28 are not located on the same straight line.
The specific arrangement of the limiting balls 28 is a prior art, and is not repeated in the present invention as long as the rolling friction occurs between the guide block 21 and the hinge body 11.
In the present embodiment, the plural limiting balls 28 are provided around the positioning groove 25. Obviously, the limiting balls 28 may also be provided around the guiding groove 26. In addition, the limiting boss 27 may also coexist with the limiting balls 28, i.e., the limiting balls 28 are provided on the limiting boss 27.
The refrigerator further comprises a stopping plate 29 provided at a side of the guide block 21 away from the hinge body 11 and used for shielding the guiding groove 26 and the positioning groove 25, and heights of the guiding shaft 13 and the positioning shaft 12 are the same and both greater than depths of the guiding groove 26 and the positioning groove 25. The stopping plate 29 and the guide block 21 are integrally formed; in addition, the guiding shaft 13 and the positioning shaft 12 have different diameters, and the door may be better limited and prevented from shaking. In the present embodiment, since the guiding shaft 13 and the positioning shaft 12 abut against the stopping plates 29, the door may be supported to space apart the guide block 21 from the hinge body 11.
The hinge body 11 comprises a first plate body 17 and a second plate body 18 which protrude and extend out of the cabinet and are provided at intervals in a height direction, the first plate body 17 is close to the guide block 21 compared with the second plate body 18 and provided spaced apart from the guide block 21, and through holes 171 for the guiding shaft 13 and the positioning shaft 12 to pass through are formed on the first and second plate bodies 17 and 18.
A first limiting plate 131 and a second limiting plate 132 for preventing the guiding shaft 13 and the positioning shaft from disengaging from the through holes 171 are provided on the guiding shaft 13 and the positioning shaft 12 between the first and second plate bodies 17 and 18 respectively, the first and second limiting plates 131 and 122 have the same height, and diameters of the first and second limiting plates 131 and 122 are greater than diameters of the through holes 171.
One end of the guiding shaft 13 and one end of the positioning shaft 12 facing the guide block 21 abut against the stopping plates 29, the elastic pieces 123 are provided between the first and second limiting plates 131 and 122 and the second plate body 18 respectively, and a distance between the guide block 21 and the first plate body 17 is less than a distance between the first limiting plate 131 and the second plate body 18.
In the present embodiment, when the door is opened, the door presses and abuts against the guiding shaft 13 and the positioning shaft 12 under the action of gravity, until the elastic pieces 123 are compressed to abut the guide block 21 against the first plate body 17, and at this point, the first and second plate bodies 17 and 18 together support the door. That is, in the present embodiment, the gravity of the door is shared onto the first and second plate bodies 17 and 18. When a coefficient of friction between the elastic pieces 123 and the second plate body 18 is not greater than a coefficient of friction between the guide block 21 and the first plate body 17, and when the door of the refrigerator according to the present embodiment is opened, the friction force may become smaller compared with the first embodiment, and since the friction force is shared onto the first and second plate bodies 17 and 18, the first and second plate bodies 17 and 18 would be abraded by the door to a low degree, and the service life of the door of the refrigerator may be prolonged.
In addition, the differences of the refrigerator according to the present embodiment from the refrigerator according to the fourth embodiment may also be applied to an existing single-hinge-shaft refrigerator.
Specifically, only one rotation shaft is provided on the hinge body, and one rotation shaft groove for fitting with the rotation shaft is provided on the guide block. A stopping plate for shielding the rotation shaft groove is provided at a side of the guide block away from the hinge body, the hinge body comprises a first plate body and a second plate body which are provided at intervals in a height direction, and the first plate body is close to the guide block compared with the second plate body and provided spaced apart from the guide block. Through holes for the rotation shaft to pass through are formed on the first and second plate bodies, a limiting plate is provided on the rotation shaft between the first and second plate bodies to prevent the rotation shaft from disengaging from the through holes, one end of the rotation shaft facing the guide block abuts against the stopping plate, an elastic piece is provided between the limiting plate and the second plate body, and a distance between the guide block and the first plate body is less than a distance between the limiting plate and the second plate body.
When the above-mentioned differences are applied to the single-hinge-shaft refrigerator, the gravity of the door may also be shared onto the first and second plate bodies while the friction force is also shared onto the first and second plate bodies, thereby reducing abrasion.
