Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. It will be apparent that the described embodiments are only some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present application. All other embodiments, which can be made by a person skilled in the art without any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the present application based on the embodiments herein.
In one implementation, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a water pan assembly 10 provided in an embodiment of the present application; fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a clip 200 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The drip tray assembly 10 includes: a water pan 100, a plurality of clamping members 200 and an evaporating pipe 300.
The water pan 100 comprises a bottom plate 110 and a side plate 120, wherein the bottom plate 110 and the side plate 120 are enclosed to form a shell with a water receiving cavity; the clamping pieces 200 are arranged in the water receiving cavity at intervals and are connected with the bottom plate 110, the clamping pieces 200 comprise two opposite elastic pieces, each elastic piece comprises a first sheet body 210 and a second sheet body 220, the first sheet body 210 is connected with the bottom plate 110, one end of the first sheet body 210, far away from the bottom plate 110, is bent towards the direction of the opposite first sheet body 210, and a clamping groove 213 for accommodating a pipeline is formed between the two first sheet bodies 210; the second sheet body 220 is connected with one end of the first sheet body 210 far away from the bottom plate 110, the second sheet body 220 is obliquely arranged towards the direction deviating from the second sheet body 220 which is oppositely arranged, an opening 221 is formed at one end of the two second sheet bodies 220 close to the first sheet body 210, the opening 221 is communicated with the clamping groove 213, and the opening 221 is relatively opened and closed under the elastic action of the elastic sheet so that a pipeline enters the clamping groove 213; the evaporation tube 300, a portion of the evaporation tube 300 is accommodated in the clamping groove 213.
It should be noted that, the shape and the volume of the water receiving chamber depend on the shape and the size of the bottom plate 110 and the side plate 120, for example, the water receiving chamber is a circular chamber, the bottom plate 110 is a circular plate, the side plate 120 is a square plate, and the square plate is bent into a circular cavity and then is connected with the circular bottom plate 110 in a surrounding manner to form a housing with a circular water receiving chamber; also for example, the water receiving chamber is a square chamber, the bottom plate 110 is a square plate, the side plates 120 may be four square plates, and the four square plates are connected end to form a square cavity and then are connected with the square bottom plate 110 in a surrounding manner to form a housing with a square water receiving chamber, etc. In addition, the larger the size of the bottom plate 110 and the side plate 120, the larger the water receiving chamber formed by the two. Accordingly, the shape and size of the bottom plate 110 and the side plate 120 can be selected and adjusted according to the need, and are not particularly limited herein. The materials of the bottom plate 110 and the side plate 120 may be selected according to the specific application, and are not particularly limited herein, and for example, the materials of the bottom plate 110 and the side plate 120 may be the same or different. It will be appreciated that because the drip tray 100 is a housing having a drip chamber defined by the bottom panel 110 and the side panels 120, the bottom panel 110 and the side panels 120 may be welded or glued together.
In one possible embodiment, since the water tray 100 is used for receiving the defrosted water after defrosting, in order to prevent the water in the water receiving chamber from leaking out of the water tray 100, the bottom plate 110 and the side plate 120 may be enclosed together by injection molding or extrusion molding, or the like, and the shell with the water receiving chamber is formed by injection molding or extrusion molding, or the like, so that the tightness between the bottom plate 110 and the side plate 120 is better, and the defrosted water can be effectively placed to leak out of the water tray 100 from the water receiving chamber.
It should be noted that, the number of the clamping pieces 200 shown in fig. 1 is two, and the two clamping pieces 200 are arranged in the water receiving chamber at intervals and connected with the bottom plate 110, however, in other embodiments, the number of the clamping pieces 200 shown in the drawings is merely a reference for explaining the embodiment of the present application in detail, and is not a limitation of the number of the clamping pieces 200 in the embodiment of the present application, but only a plurality of the clamping pieces 200 need not interfere with each other and can clamp the evaporating tube 300.
It should be further noted that, the clamping member 200 includes two oppositely disposed elastic sheets, and the spacing distance between the two oppositely disposed elastic sheets should be selectively adjusted according to the pipe diameter of the clamping member, which is not limited in this embodiment.
With continued reference to fig. 2, the elastic sheet includes a first sheet 210 and a second sheet 220, where the first sheet 210 includes a vertical portion 211 and a curved portion 212, and the vertical portion 211 is vertically disposed on the bottom plate 110; the bent portions 212 are bent toward the oppositely disposed bent portions 212, and a gap is formed between the two bent portions 212. It will be appreciated that the provision of the vertical portion 211 is on the one hand because the vertical blade is easier to manufacture and less prone to deformation; on the other hand, compared with other radians or inclined lamellar bodies, under the condition that other conditions are the same, when the distance between the end of the lamellar body and the bottom plate 110 is the same, less manufacturing materials are needed for manufacturing the vertical lamellar body, so that resources can be saved and the production cost can be reduced.
It should be noted that, when the clamping groove 213 for accommodating the evaporation tube 300 is formed between the two first sheets 210, the distance between the two vertical portions 211 is the same as the outer diameter of the evaporation tube 300 to be accommodated in the clamping groove 213, and when the evaporation tube 300 is accommodated in the clamping groove 213, the two vertical portions 211 abut against the evaporation tube 300, so that the vertical portions 211 do not press the evaporation tube 300 to damage the evaporation tube 300, and can restrict the movement of the evaporation tube 300 due to the friction between the two vertical portions 211 and the evaporation tube 300.
Meanwhile, after the two bending parts 212 are bent towards each other, the two bending parts can further abut against the evaporation tube 300 to further limit the movement of the evaporation tube 300, so that the evaporation tube 300 can be clamped in the clamping groove 213 more stably.
Further, the curvature of the bending portion 212 is the same as the outer diameter of the evaporation tube 300 to be accommodated in the clamping groove 213, and when the evaporation tube 300 is accommodated in the clamping groove 213, the sheet body of the bending portion 212 can be attached to the outer wall of the evaporation tube 300, so that the contact area between the inner wall of the clamping groove 213 and the evaporation tube 300 is increased, the stability of the evaporation tube 300 in the clamping groove 213 is improved, the shaking of the evaporation tube 300 is reduced, and the noise can be effectively reduced.
The second sheet 220 is a planar sheet, and the planar sheet is easy to manufacture. The two second sheets 220 are disposed obliquely toward a direction away from each other, and one ends of the two second sheets 220 near the first sheet 210 are not connected together, so that a V-shaped structure with an opening 221 at the bottom is formed between the two second sheets 220. When the evaporation tube 300 is to be accommodated in the clamping groove 213, the V-shaped structure can reduce the contact area between the evaporation tube 300 and the evaporation tube 300, so that the friction force between the evaporation tube 300 and the sheet body is reduced, the efficiency of the evaporation tube 300 entering the clamping groove 213 through the opening 221 can be improved, and meanwhile, the damage of the evaporation tube 300 due to friction can be effectively prevented because the contact area between the evaporation tube 300 and the sheet body is reduced.
It will be appreciated that since the clip 200 is directly connected to the base plate 110, the frost water introduced into the water receiving chamber wets the clip 200, and in order to prevent the clip 200 from corroding and rusting and affecting the appearance thereof, the clip 200 is made of polyhexamethylene adipamide and modified ABS (Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene) plastics or stainless steel. Preferably, the clip 200 is made of plastic such as polyhexamethylene adipamide and modified ABS (Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene) in consideration of cost.
It will also be appreciated that to enhance the stability of the spring, the first sheet 210 and the second sheet 220 are integrally molded by injection molding or extrusion molding. Meanwhile, in order to enhance the stability of the clamping piece 200, two oppositely arranged elastic pieces of the clamping piece 200 are integrally formed with the water pan 100 in an injection molding or extrusion molding mode.
It should be noted that the evaporating tube 300 includes a metal tube for transporting a refrigerant and a heat-shrinkable tube sleeved on the metal tube for protecting the metal tube from damage. When the evaporation tube 300 is delivering the high temperature refrigerant, the high temperature refrigerant transfers heat to the defrost water of the water tray 100, thereby evaporating the defrost water.
It is understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, the tube diameter and the shape of the evaporation tube 300 are not limited, and the tube diameter and the shape of the evaporation tube 300 should be selected according to the specific application scenario.
With continued reference to fig. 2, in some embodiments, an arcuate transition is provided at the junction of the first sheet 210 and the second sheet 220.
It can be appreciated that when the evaporation tube 300 enters the clamping groove 213 formed between the two first sheets 210 through the opening 221 between the two second sheets 220, the sharp portion at the connection between the first sheets 210 and the second sheets 220 scratches the evaporation tube 300, thereby affecting the evaporation effect and the service life of the evaporation tube 300. Therefore, the arc transition portion 222 is disposed at the connection position of the first sheet 210 and the second sheet 220, and the evaporation tube 300 can be smoothly introduced into the clamping groove 213 through the opening 221 by the arc surface of the arc transition portion 222.
In some embodiments, the evaporating pipe 300 includes an inlet pipe section 310, an evaporating pipe section 320 and an outlet pipe section 330 which are sequentially communicated, the inlet pipe section 310 is communicated with an outlet of a compressor of the refrigerator, the outlet pipe section 330 is communicated with an inlet of a condenser of the refrigerator, the evaporating pipe section 320 is laid on the bottom plate 110 in a snake shape, and part of the evaporating pipe section 320 is accommodated in the clamping groove 213 and clamped with the clamping piece 200.
As shown in FIG. 1, the intake pipe section 310 includes a plurality of vertical pipes and at least one transverse pipe, wherein the transverse pipe is connected between two adjacent straight pipes. By providing the intake pipe section 310 to be comprised of a plurality of standpipes and at least one cross pipe, vibration transferred from the compressor to the evaporator pipe 300 can be effectively reduced, and noise can be effectively reduced, as compared to providing the intake pipe section 310 to be connected between the compressor and the evaporator pipe section 320 between one standpipe.
In one possible embodiment, the inlet pipe section 310 may further include at least one standpipe and at least one curved pipe, for example, a standpipe and a curved pipe, where the standpipe is in communication with the evaporation pipe section 320 and the curved pipe is in communication with an end of the standpipe away from the evaporation pipe 300, and in this embodiment, by alternately connecting the standpipe and the curved pipe, vibration transmitted to the evaporation pipe 300 by the compressor can be effectively reduced, and noise is effectively reduced.
With continued reference to FIG. 1, the evaporator tube section 320 can include a plurality of straight tubes that are interconnected to form a serpentine shape. It will be appreciated that the serpentine evaporator tube segment 320 increases the evaporation area of the evaporator tube 300 and thus allows for rapid evaporation of the defrost water from the drip tray 100.
In one example, the evaporation tube section 320 is tiled on the bottom plate 110, and the evaporation tube 300 can directly contact with the defrosting water, so that heat loss is reduced, and efficiency of evaporating the defrosting water by the evaporation tube section 320 is improved. In addition, since the evaporation tube sections 320 are tiled on the floor, the distances between each tube section of the evaporation tube sections 320 and the bottom plate 110 are the same, so that the uniformity of the evaporation tube sections 320 for evaporating the defrosting water can be effectively improved.
It should be noted that, the tube is bent or folded between the tubes by welding, whether the inlet tube section 310, the outlet tube section 330 or the evaporation tube section 320.
With continued reference to fig. 1, in some embodiments, the evaporator further includes a first damper 400, where the first damper 400 is sleeved on the evaporation tube 320 and disposed in the clamping groove 213.
It should be noted that, by sleeving the first damper 400 on a portion of the evaporation tube 320, the evaporation tube 320 is prevented from directly contacting the bottom plate 110, so as to prevent the vibration transmitted from the compressor to the evaporation tube 300 from being transmitted to the water receiving tray 100 through the evaporation tube 320, thereby causing larger noise.
It can be appreciated that the first damper 400 can not only avoid the evaporation tube section 320 from directly contacting the bottom plate 110, but also protect the evaporation tube section 320 from being damaged due to friction with the clamping member 200 caused by vibration transmitted by the compressor, and the first damper 400 can be a ring such as a circular ring or a square ring, and is sleeved on the evaporation tube section 320 to prevent the evaporation tube section 320 from being damaged.
It is understood that the first shock absorbing member 400 may be made of a material that isolates, cuts or counteracts vibration, for example, the first shock absorbing member 400 may be made of vibration absorbing foam such as EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer), PE (polyethylene), CR (neoprene), PU (polyurethane), PORON (polyurethane foam), D3O (expansion foam), etc.
It can be further understood that the first damper 400 is sleeved on the evaporation tube section 320, and the first damper 400 is disposed in the clamping groove 213, so as to protect the evaporation tube section 320, prevent the evaporation tube section 320 from being damaged when entering the clamping groove 213, and prevent the evaporation tube section 320 from being damaged due to continuous friction between the evaporation tube section 320 and the clamping piece 200 when the compressor transmits vibration to the evaporation tube section 320.
It should be noted that, in order to avoid affecting the evaporation effect of the evaporation tube 320, the first damper 400 is sleeved on a portion of the evaporation tube 320. For example, the first damper 400 may be only sleeved on the portion of the evaporation tube 320 contacting the clip 200.
With continued reference to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, the base plate 110 is provided with at least one second shock absorbing member 500, the second shock absorbing member 500 being configured to support the evaporator tube 300 to maintain the equilibrium state of the sections of the evaporator tube section 320.
It can be appreciated that, since the first shock absorbing member 400 is sleeved on the evaporation tube section 320 and is located in the clamping groove 213, and the evaporation tube section 320 is in a snake shape, in order to keep the evaporation tube section 320 in a balanced state, the evaporation tube section 320 can uniformly evaporate the defrosting water in the defrosting water tray 100, because at least one second shock absorbing member 500 is further disposed between the bottom plate 110 and the evaporation tube section 320 for supporting the evaporation tube section 320.
It should be further noted that, referring to fig. 1, the second shock absorbing member 500 may be a bracket, or may be a collar such as a round or square collar, and in this embodiment, the shape and structure of the second shock absorbing member 500 should not be limited, and should be selected according to the actual application scenario, and only needs to be able to cooperate with the first shock absorbing member 400 for the evaporation tube section 320 to maintain the equilibrium state.
It can be understood that the second damping member 500 may be a damping foam made of the same material as the first damping member 400, or may be a damping foam made of different materials, for example, the first damping member 400 and the first damping member 400 are made of damping foam such as EVA, PE, CR, PU, PORON, D O; the first shock absorbing member 400 and the first shock absorbing member 400 are different in material, the first shock absorbing member 400 is made of EVA damping foam, and the second shock absorbing member 500PU damping foam is made of EVA damping foam.
With continued reference to fig. 1, in some embodiments, the bottom plate 110 is further provided with a water accumulation pipe 600, and the water accumulation pipe 600 and the bottom plate 110 are enclosed to form a water accumulation tank, so that one end of a drain pipe for discharging the frost water of the refrigerator extends into the water accumulation tank.
It can be understood that, in order to prevent the distance between the outlet of the drain pipe and the water surface of the defrosting water in the water receiving tray 100 from being too small, the defrosting water in the water receiving tray 100 can be sucked into the drain pipe by suddenly opening and closing the refrigerator door under the negative pressure, so that abnormal noise is generated or the defrosting water is sucked into the refrigerating chamber reversely to cause frost or ice formation of the refrigerating chamber, so that the water accumulating pipe 600 is arranged on the bottom plate 110, the water accumulating pipe 600 and the bottom plate 110 are enclosed to form a water accumulating tank, and the drain pipe is separated from the water receiving chamber through the water accumulating tank, so that the problem of suck-back of the drain pipe due to the negative pressure is avoided.
In addition, defrosting water flows out to the water accumulation groove through the drain pipe to form a seal on the discharge port of the drain pipe, so that external air is effectively prevented from entering the refrigerator from a gap between the drain pipe and the water receiving disc 100, and the refrigerating effect of the refrigerating cavity is affected.
It should be noted that, the water accumulation tube 600 and the bottom plate 110 are enclosed together by welding, gluing or an integral molding.
It should be further noted that, the shape, the size and the material of the water accumulation pipe 600 are not specifically required in the embodiment of the present application, and only one end of the water drain pipe for draining the frost water of the refrigerator needs to extend into the water accumulation tank, so that the water drain pipe is separated from the water receiving chamber.

It should be noted that, the shape and size of the notch 610 are not limited in this embodiment, and should be selected and adjusted according to the actual application scenario.
With continued reference to fig. 3, in some embodiments, a drop-off prevention structure 620 is disposed in the water accumulation tank, and the drop-off prevention structure 620 is used to prevent the drain pipe from falling out of the water accumulation tank.
