In addition, term " first ", " second " only are used to describe purpose, and can not be interpreted as indication or hint relative importance.
In description of the invention, need to prove that only if clear and definite regulation and qualification are arranged in addition, term " installation ", " linking to each other ", " connection " should be done broad understanding, for example, can be to be fixedly connected, connect integratedly, also can be to removably connect; Can be mechanical connection or electrical connection, also can be the connection of two element internals; Can be directly to link to each other, also can link to each other indirectly, for those of ordinary skill in the art, can understand the concrete implication of above-mentioned term as the case may be through intermediary.
With reference to accompanying drawing 1-6 the refrigerator according to the embodiment of the invention is described below.
Refrigerator according to the embodiment of the invention comprises: casing 1 and water-guiding element 2.
Particularly, be limited with refrigerating chamber 3 in the casing 1,31 of the diapires of refrigerating chamber 3 are provided with water storage recess (not shown) with delivery port and the rhone 4 that is communicated with delivery port.Rhone 4 is directed along fore-and-aft direction.
The upper surface of water-guiding element 2 is provided with guiding gutter 21, and water-guiding element 2 removably is located in the rhone 4 and has reception position and water guide position.
When reception position (as shown in Figure 2); The front end 22 of water-guiding element 2 is directed backward, the rear end 23 of water-guiding element 2 is directed forward; And the major part of water-guiding element 2 can be contained in the rhone 4; And the rear end 23 of water-guiding element 2 can not be contained in the rhone 4, but will be positioned at casing 1 (casing 1 can not be stretched out in the end that is the rear end 23 of water-guiding element 2), and water-guiding element 2 can not bump with refrigerator doors when closing refrigerator door like this.
When the water guide position (as shown in Figure 6), the rear end 23 that the front end 22 of water-guiding element 2 stretches out casing 1, water-guiding element 2 forward extends back and is engaged in the rhone 4.After defrost water flows out from the water storage recess, flow in the guiding gutter 21 of water-guiding element 2 through rhone 4, the front end from guiding gutter 21 flows out at last.Collect defrost water for ease, can below the front end 22 of water-guiding element 2, place a container to collect defrost water.
Thus, refrigerator according to an embodiment of the invention through the switching of water-guiding element 2 between reception position and water guide position, is conveniently collected defrost water and has been avoided defrost water to flow down and be difficult for tidying up along the front bulkhead of casing 1.When not needing draining, it is built-in water-guiding element 2 to be accommodated in rhone 4, and can not cause interference with refrigerator doors during closing refrigerator door, has guaranteed the overall appearance of refrigerator.In addition, the refrigerator structure of the embodiment of the invention is simple, is convenient to processing and manufacturing.
Like Fig. 4 and shown in Figure 5, according to one embodiment of present invention, on the diapire 31 of refrigerating chamber 3 and the front side that is positioned at refrigerating chamber 3 also be provided with mounting groove 5.Water-guiding element 2 is removably mounted in the mounting groove 5, and rhone 4 is connected with the rear wall of mounting groove 5, so that water-guiding element 2 is when switching to the water guide position, the rear end 23 of water-guiding element 2 can be connected with rhone 4.
The front surface of mounting groove 5 is concordant with the front surface of casing 1, and at reception position, the rear end 23 of water-guiding element 2 is positioned at mounting groove 3, promptly refrigerator doors close the back water-guiding element 2 rear end 23 can not interfere with it the influence close the door.In the water guide position, the front end 22 of water-guiding element 2 stretches out mounting groove 5 and flows down along the front bulkhead of casing 1 to avoid defrost water.
According to one embodiment of present invention, on the bottom surface of mounting groove 5, be provided with base plate 6.Base plate 6 tops are provided with installs axle sleeve 61, and accordingly, the bottom of water-guiding element 2 is provided with and the installation shaft 24 that axle sleeve 61 cooperates is installed, and preferably, installation shaft 24 is located at 23 places, rear end of contiguous water-guiding element 2.
Clean for ease, base plate 6 can adopt detachable installation with the bottom surface of mounting groove 5.
When between reception position and water guide position, switching; Earlier the installation shaft 24 of water-guiding element 2 is extracted in the installation axle sleeve 61 of base plate 6; Then horizontally rotate water-guiding element 180 degree (front end 22 that is about to water-guiding element 2 and rear end 23 turn to original towards direction direction in opposite directions); Again the installation shaft 24 of water-guiding element 2 is inserted in the installation axle sleeve 61 of base plate 6, can be accomplished change action.
Thus, simple and be convenient to operation according to the change action of water-guiding element 2 between reception position and water guide position of the refrigerator of the embodiment of the invention.
Mounting groove 5 is provided with groove 7 with the junction of rhone 4, and the bottom of groove 7 can hold the part that axle sleeve 61 is installed.In the water guide position; Groove 7 is inserted in the end of the rear end 23 of water-guiding element 2; Preventing,, relatively rotating between axle sleeve 61 and the installation shaft 24 (for example the installation shaft 24 of the installation axle sleeve 61 of base plate 6 and water-guiding element 2 be shaped as circle) make the rear end 23 of water-guiding element 2 separate with rhone 4 and then cause in the defrost water inflow mounting groove 5 because being installed when water-guiding element 2 water guides.
The shape of the installation axle sleeve 61 of base plate 6 and the installation shaft 24 of water-guiding element 2 can also be rectangle, to overcome relatively rotating between axle sleeve 61 and the installation shaft 24 is installed.
As shown in Figure 5, according to one embodiment of present invention, water-guiding element 2 comprises diapire 25 and two side 26, forms guiding gutter 21 through diapire 25 and two side 26, so the cross section of guiding gutter 21 is the cardinal principle U-shaped.
The bottom surface of guiding gutter 21 (being the upper surface of diapire 25) for along from the rear end 23 of water-guiding element 2 to the inclined-plane that is directed downwards inclination of the front end 22 of water-guiding element 2, flow out from guiding gutter 21 to make things convenient for defrost water.
For the defrost water in the rhone 4 are flowed in the guiding gutter 21 swimmingly,, can make the bottom surface 41 of bottom surface and rhone 4 of rearward end of guiding gutter 4 concordant or be positioned at below the bottom surface of rhone through design in the water guide position.
Other formations of the refrigerator of the embodiment of the invention can be that present technique field those of ordinary skill is known, repeat no more at this.
