In this embodiment, a plurality of air channels 16 are provided on one side wall, so that the air output of the side wall can be increased. Different air ducts 16 can be used for air-out to different positions of the storage cavity, so that a plurality of positions of the storage cavity can be used for air-out, and the refrigerating effect of the storage cavity is further ensured.

The length of the air duct 16 corresponding to the position where the cool air is more may be shorter or the air opening of the air duct 16 may be farther from the second side wall 12, reducing the air output. The length of the air duct 16 corresponding to the position where the cool air is less may be longer or the air opening of the air duct 16 may be closer to the second side wall 12, increasing the air output. In this way, the air output of the corresponding positions of the air channels 16 can be adjusted, and the temperature uniformity in the storage cavity is improved.
Optionally, when the first air channel 161 is located above the second air channel 163, the first distance is smaller than the second distance, and/or the third distance is smaller than the fourth distance.
In this embodiment, the cool air in the refrigerator typically sinks and accumulates at the bottom of the refrigerator. Therefore, the first distance is smaller than the second distance, or the third distance is smaller than the fourth distance, so that the air outlet amount of the first air duct 161 positioned on the upper layer is larger than the air outlet amount of the second air duct 163, the air outlet amount of the upper part of the refrigerator can be improved, and the temperature uniformity in the refrigerator can be improved.

In this embodiment, the distance between the first air duct 161 and the second air duct 163 or the distance between the first air outlet 162 at the end and the second air outlet 164 at the end is different by at least one air outlet, so that the air output of the upper air duct 16 and the air output of the lower air duct 16 can be obviously different, and the temperature uniformity of the refrigerator is improved.
As an example, as shown in fig. 3 and 4, the first air duct 161 includes six first air outlets 162, and in a direction from right to left, as shown in fig. 3, when the first distance is the same as the second distance, the total air volume of the air volumes of the first air duct 161 and the second air duct 163 is 1622L/min; as shown in fig. 4, when the first distance is smaller than the second distance, the total air volume of the air volumes of the first air channel 161 and the second air channel 163 is 1215L/min, and as can be seen from the comparison, when the first distance is the same as the second distance, the up-down air volume ratio is about 6:4, and the lowest temperature in the refrigerator is-25.3 ℃, the highest temperature in the refrigerator is about-23.1 ℃, and the difference is 2.2 ℃. Under the condition that the first distance is smaller than the second distance, although the total air quantity is reduced, the temperature uniformity is obviously improved, wherein the ratio of the upper air quantity to the lower air quantity is about 2:1, compared with an equal-length scheme, the lower air outlet air quantity is more uniformly distributed, the lowest temperature in the refrigerator is-24.9 ℃, the highest temperature in the refrigerator is about-24.1 ℃, and the difference between the temperatures is 0.8 ℃, so that the improvement is obvious.

In addition, when the fourth side wall 15 and the third side wall 14 are disposed opposite to each other, the third air outlet 801 and the first air outlet 162 are disposed alternately, so that condensation of the door body caused by convection rising of the air flow can be prevented.

For convenience of description, the side wall opposite to the third side wall is referred to as a fourth side wall, and the side wall connected to the third side wall is referred to as a first side wall and a second side wall, alternatively, the first side wall 13 and/or the second side wall 12 may also be provided with a fourth air duct having a plurality of fourth air outlets, and the plurality of fourth air outlets and the plurality of first air outlets 162 are staggered, so that the air outlet direction and the air outlet area of the refrigerator can be increased, and the air outlet amount and the refrigerating effect of the refrigerator can be improved.
Optionally, when the fourth sidewall 15 further defines a third air duct 80 having a plurality of third air outlets 801, the third air duct 80 is disposed offset from the first air duct 161.
In this embodiment, the first air outlet 162 and the third air outlet 801 are staggered in the extending direction of the air duct 16, for example, the first air duct 161 and the third air duct 80 all extend along the length direction of the refrigerator, so that the first air outlet and the third air outlet 801 increase the air outlet uniformity of the refrigerator in the length direction. The first air duct 161 and the third air duct 80 are staggered, so that the air outlet area can be increased and the air outlet uniformity can be improved in the height direction of the refrigerator.
Optionally, when the fourth side wall 15 further defines the third air duct 80 having the plurality of third air outlets 801, the fourth side wall 15 further defines a fourth air duct having a fourth air outlet, and the third air duct 80 and the fourth air duct are disposed at intervals along the height direction of the liner 10.
In this embodiment, the fourth side wall 15 may also be provided with a plurality of air ducts 16, and the plurality of air ducts 16 extend along the height direction of the liner 10, so that the refrigerator can discharge air from a plurality of directions, and further improves the air output and the refrigerating effect.
Optionally, a plurality of fourth air outlets and a plurality of third air outlets 801 are staggered, so that the air outlets on the upper parts of the two opposite side walls are staggered, the two air outlets on the lower parts are also staggered, the air outlets on the same side wall are staggered, and the air channels 16 are staggered, so that the air outlet can be improved omnidirectionally, and the refrigerating effect of the refrigerator is ensured.
It should be noted that, the first side wall 13 and/or the second side wall 12 may also be provided with a plurality of air channels 16, where the plurality of air channels 16 are disposed at intervals along the height direction of the liner 10, and the air channels 16 of opposite air openings are disposed in a staggered manner, and the air openings of the plurality of air channels 16 of the same side wall are also disposed in a staggered manner, so that the air outlet area and the air outlet volume can be improved.
In some alternative embodiments, as shown in fig. 6 and 7, a plurality of air channels 16 are provided on one side wall, and the plurality of air channels 16 on one side wall include a first air channel 161 and a second air channel 163, the first air channel 161 is located on an upper portion of one side wall, and the first air channel 161 is provided with a first air outlet 162; the second air duct 163 is located below the first air duct 161, the second air duct 163 is located at the lower part of one side wall, and the second air duct 163 is provided with a second air outlet 164; wherein, the first air outlet 162 at least partially upwards outputs air; and/or, the second air outlet 164 is at least partially downwardly directed.
In this embodiment, the first air duct 161 located at the upper portion is air-out to the upper portion of the inner space 11, and the second air duct 163 located at the lower portion is air-out to the lower portion of the inner space 11, wherein the first air outlet 162 is at least partially air-out upwards, so that when the height of the articles in the inner space 11 is higher, the first air outlet 162 is air-out upwards, which can reduce the blocking area of the articles to the first air outlet 162, and achieve the effect of attaching jet flow, thereby ensuring the air output of the refrigeration equipment. More articles in the inner space 11 cause the bottom space to be smaller, and the second air outlet 164 at least partially discharges air downwards, so that the effect of attaching the jet can be achieved, and the refrigerating effect is improved. Meanwhile, when the bottom wall of the liner 10 is provided with the relevant diversion channel, the airflow flowing to the diversion channel can be improved, and the air output of the second air outlet 164 and the refrigerating effect of the refrigerator are ensured. In addition, the first air outlet 162 at least partially outputs air upwards and/or the second air outlet 164 at least partially outputs air downwards, so that the air outlet area and the air outlet direction of the first air outlet 162 and the second air outlet 164 can be increased, and the air outlet quantity and the refrigerating effect are further ensured.
Optionally, the air outlet direction of the first air outlet 162 forms a first included angle with the horizontal direction, and the first included angle is greater than 0 ° and less than 90 °; and/or, the air outlet direction of the second air outlet 164 forms a second included angle with the horizontal direction, and the second included angle is greater than 0 ° and smaller than 90 °.
In this embodiment, when the air outlet direction of the first air outlet 162 is completely horizontal, i.e. the first included angle is 0 °, when the height of the articles in the box does not reach the first air outlet 162, the air outlet volume of the first air outlet 162 is maximum, and can reach 1670L/min, the temperatures of the interior space 11 before and after are-20.3 and-19.3, respectively, and the temperature difference is 1 ℃. The air outlet direction of the first air outlet 162 is completely horizontal, when the height of the articles in the refrigerator is greater than the height of the first air outlet 162, the wind resistance increases sharply, the temperatures of the interior space 11 before and after are-22.2 and-17.9 respectively, the temperature difference reaches 4.3 ℃, and the temperature uniformity is poor. Therefore, the first air outlet 162 is configured to discharge air upward, so that shielding of the first air outlet 162 by the articles with the same height can be reduced, and the air output can be improved. When the first included angle is 90 °, the air outlet direction of the first air outlet 162 is completely perpendicular to the horizontal direction, the air outlet of the first air outlet 162 is completely blown upwards, the air outlet area is reduced, the air outlet is less, the air quantity flowing to the inner space 11 is less, and the loss is caused by directly blowing the door liner.
When the second included angle is 0 °, the second air outlet 164 is completely horizontal, and the second air outlet 164 is easily blocked by the articles of the refrigerator, so as to affect the air output. When the second included angle is 90 degrees, the second air outlet 164 completely discharges air downwards, so that the air flow blowing into the refrigerator is reduced, and the refrigeration effect and the air output are also affected.
Optionally, the air outlet direction of the first air outlet 162 forms a first included angle with the horizontal direction, and the first included angle ranges from the first included angle being greater than or equal to 10 ° to the first included angle being less than or equal to 60 °.
In this embodiment, when the first included angle is greater than 10 °, the air outlet of the first air outlet 162 can blow onto the door liner to generate a wall attaching effect under the condition of not contacting the articles in the refrigerator; when the first included angle is smaller than 10 degrees, at least part of the air outlet of the first air outlet 162 is shielded by articles in the refrigerator, and the wall attaching effect is not easy to generate, so that the refrigeration effect of the refrigerator is affected. When the first contained angle is greater than 60, more amount of wind directly blows the door lining, can lead to the door body to take place crooked phenomenon, causes the damage to the door body, and then influences the use and the heat preservation effect of freezer.
For example, when the first included angle is 10 ° and the article is higher than the first air outlet 162, the temperatures at the front and rear positions of the refrigerator are-21.5 and-18.6, respectively, with a temperature difference of 2.9 ℃. Compared with the first included angle of 0 degrees, the temperature uniformity of the refrigerator is further increased. When the first included angle is 60 degrees, and the temperature of the article is higher than the first air outlet 162, the temperature of the front and rear positions in the refrigerator are respectively-20.1 and-17.4, the temperature difference is 2.7 ℃, and compared with the first included angle which is 0 degrees, the temperature uniformity of the refrigerator is further increased.
Optionally, the air outlet direction of the second air outlet 164 forms a second included angle with the horizontal direction, the second included angle is greater than or equal to 10 °, and the second included angle is less than or equal to 60 °.
In this embodiment, when the second included angle is smaller than 10 °, most of the air flows from the second air outlet 164 downward, so that the air flowing into the inner space 11 is less, and the refrigeration effect of the refrigerator is affected. When the second included angle is larger than 60 degrees, the area shielded by articles in the refrigerator is larger, and the air output is influenced. For example, the first included angle may be 10 °, 30 °, 45 °, 60 °; the second included angle may be 10 °, 30 °, 45 °, 60 °.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 6, the refrigerator further includes a first grille 1621, where the first grille 1621 is disposed at the first air outlet 162, the number of the first grille 1621 is plural, and the plural first grills 1621 are sequentially disposed at intervals along the height direction of the liner 10; in the inside-out direction, at least a portion of the first grill 1621 is inclined upward to cause the first air outlet 162 to at least partially discharge air upward;
optionally, as shown in fig. 7, the refrigerator further includes a second grille 1641, the second grille 1641 is disposed at the second air outlet 164, the number of the second grills 1641 is plural, and the plural second grills 1641 are sequentially disposed at intervals along the height direction of the liner 10; in the inside-out direction, at least a portion of the second grille 1641 is inclined downward so that the second air outlet 164 is at least partially downwardly air-out.
In this embodiment, the air outlet direction of the first air outlet 162 is changed by the first grille 1621, so that the air flow flowing out of the first air outlet 162 may be all inclined upward, or the air flow flowing out of the first air outlet 162 may be partially inclined upward. Likewise, the second grille 1641 may change the air outlet direction of the second air outlet 164 such that the air flow exiting the second air outlet 164 is inclined all or part of the way down.
Alternatively, the bottom wall portion of the inner container 10 is recessed to form a diversion channel, which extends in the depth direction of the inner container 10. When the third side wall 14 and the fourth side wall 15 extend along the depth direction of the liner 10, the third side wall 14 and/or the fourth side wall 15 are provided with a second air duct 163 and a second air outlet 164, wherein the second air outlet 164 corresponds to the diversion channel, so that the air flow can flow from back to front or from front to back, and the opposite direction of the air flow is guided, so that the flow area of the cold air is increased, and the circulating flow of the cold air is realized.
Optionally, the refrigerator further includes a fan 5, where the fan 5 is communicated with both the first air duct 161 and the second air duct 163, and the fan 5 is located between the first air duct 161 and the second air duct 163; wherein, the distance between the lower edge of the first air outlet 162 and the lower edge of the first air channel 161 is greater than or equal to the distance between the lower edge of the first air outlet 162 and the upper edge of the first air channel 161; and/or, the distance between the upper edge of the second air outlet 164 and the upper edge of the second air duct 163 is greater than or equal to the distance between the upper edge of the second air outlet 164 and the lower edge of the second air duct 163.
In this embodiment, the fan 5 is located between the first air duct 161 and the second air duct 163, that is, a part of the airflow flowing out of the fan 5 flows up to the first air duct 161, and another part flows down to the second air duct 163. The air flow flowing out of the fan 5 goes down to the lower layer and is closer to the lower wall of the second air duct 163, and goes up to the upper layer and is closer to the upper wall of the first air duct 161, so that the first air outlet 162 of the first air duct 161 is arranged upwards, the second air outlet 164 of the second air duct 163 is arranged downwards to be smaller in wind resistance, and the air output and the temperature uniformity can be improved.
Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 3, the height of the liner 10 is defined as H, and the height D1 of the air duct 16 is in the range of 0.05 H.ltoreq.D1.ltoreq.0.45H.
In this embodiment, when the height of the air duct 16 is less than 0.05H, the wind resistance in the air duct 16 is large, resulting in a small air output of the air duct 16, which affects the refrigeration effect of the refrigerator. When the height of the air duct 16 is greater than 0.45, too great a depth of the air duct 16 may affect the wind pressure, and thus the air supply distance.
It should be noted that: the height D1 of the air duct 16 here refers to the height of the air duct slot. Alternatively, the height of the air channel slot is matched to the height of the air channel cover 70, that is, the air channel slot is the same as or similar to the height of the air channel cover 70. Alternatively, the height of the duct cover 70 may be greater than the height of the duct slot, so as to facilitate the fixed connection of the duct cover 70.
Alternatively, the height D1 of the air duct 16 may range from 0.05 H.ltoreq.D1.ltoreq.0.25H.
In this embodiment, the maximum height of the duct 16 is further reduced, so that the air supply distance of the duct 16 is longer than the duct 16 depth of 0.45. For example, when the air duct 16 is provided with a long side wall of the refrigerator or the air duct 16 is communicated with a plurality of side walls, the air supply distance of the air duct 16 can be ensured by D1 being smaller than 0.25H, and then the temperature uniformity of the refrigerator is improved.
Illustratively, D1 may be 0.05H,0.1H,0.2H,0.25H.
It should be noted that: the air duct 16 may be one air duct 16 in the present application, or one air duct 16 includes a plurality of sub-air ducts 16, and the sum of the heights of the plurality of sub-air ducts 16 is also within the above range.
Optionally, the air duct 16 is provided with an air outlet, and the height D2 of the air outlet is 0.1D1-D2-0.9D1.
In this embodiment, when the height of the air outlet is less than 0.1D1, the area of the air outlet is too small, and the air outlet quantity is small, so that the refrigerating effect of the refrigerator is affected. When D2 is greater than 0.9D1 and the heights of the air duct cover plate 70 and the air duct groove are the same or similar, the air outlet is opened to the edge of the air duct 16, so that the air duct cover plate 70 is inconvenient to assemble, the strength of the air duct cover plate 70 is reduced, and the air duct 16 is easy to damage.
It should be noted that: the air outlet refers to the sum of the heights of all the air outlets of the air duct 16 along the height direction, that is, the height of the air outlet is the height of the air outlet when only one air outlet is arranged in the height direction of the air duct 16. In the case where a plurality of air outlets are provided in the height direction in one air duct 16, the height of the air outlets is the sum of the heights of the plurality of air outlets provided above the air duct along the height.
Illustratively, D2 may be 0.1D1,0.3D1,0.5D1,0.6D1,0.8D1 or 0.9D1, etc.
In some alternative embodiments, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, at least one of the top wall of the evaporator chamber, the side walls of the evaporator chamber, and the bottom wall of the evaporator chamber is provided with an air return opening.
In this embodiment, the evaporator chamber can return air from one direction, also can return air from a plurality of directions, so both can increase the return air volume in evaporator chamber, can also reduce the temperature rise when freezer defrosting. Specifically, when the freezer is defrosted, the heat of evaporimeter 30 department can flow to storing intracavity through the return air inlet, and at least one direction in evaporimeter chamber sets up the return air inlet, can disperse the heat of dispelling, reduces the temperature rise of freezer, prevents the chemical cargo, improves the storage effect of article.
Optionally, a second return air opening 24 is provided in the side wall of the evaporator chamber.
In this embodiment, the second air return opening 24 is provided in the side wall of the evaporator cavity facing the storage cavity, so that the air return quantity can be ensured, the blockage is not easy, and the defrosting temperature rise is lower.
For example, the evaporator cavity is provided with only the second air return opening 24, and the opening area of the second air return opening 24 is 5940mm 2 The air quantity is 930L/min, but the defrosting temperature rise is only 1.1 ℃, and the normal temperature rise under the condition of no refrigeration is realized.
It should be noted that: the side wall of the evaporator chamber refers to the side of the evaporator chamber facing the storage space, and the second return air opening 24 extends at least partially in the vertical direction.
Optionally, when the top wall of the evaporator cavity is provided with the first air return opening 23, the ratio c of the area of the first air return opening 23 to the area of the second air return opening 24 is in the range of 0 < c.ltoreq.4.
In this embodiment, the top wall of the evaporator cavity may also be provided with the first air return port 23, and the arrangement of the first air return port 23 and the second air return port 24 can increase the air return quantity, disperse the heat during defrosting of the evaporator cavity, and reduce the temperature rise. When c is greater than 4, the main return air area is concentrated at the top, so that the air quantity of the air supply opening close to the return air opening is particularly large. And the temperature rise of defrosting carried on the top of the return air inlet is more than 4 ℃, the temperature rise is larger, and the risk of defrosting is high.
The return air area of the first return air opening 23 is 9426mm 2 The return air area of the second return air inlet 24 is 2540mm 2 When the ratio of c is 3.7, the whole air quantity 1630L/min is equal to 150-180L/min, but the air quantity of two air outlets close to the air return port is 290L/min and 260L/min respectively, and the two air outlets are higher, but the temperature near the air return port is higher, so that the air quantity is larger, the whole temperature uniformity is facilitated, and the highest temperature is minus 18 ℃, so that the national standard is met. At the moment, the defrosting temperature rise of the top of the evaporator cavity is 3.4 ℃ and the defrosting risk is reduced. Here, the first air return port 23 is increased and kept within the above range as compared with the case where only the second air return port 24 is opened, so that the air volume can be increased, the temperature rise can be kept low, and the article storage effect can be improved.
Optionally, when the top wall of the evaporator cavity is provided with the first air return opening 23, the ratio c of the area of the first air return opening 23 to the area of the second air return opening 24 is in the range of 0 < c.ltoreq.3.
In this embodiment, the area proportion of the second front side return air inlet increases, can improve holistic amount of wind, reduces the refrigeration effect of freezer to further reduce the temperature rise, improve refrigeration effect. The return air area of the first return air opening 23 is 9426mm 2 The return air area of the second return air inlet 24 is 3340mm 2 When the ratio of c was 2.8, the total air volume was increased to 1650L/min. The average air quantity is 160-180L/min, but two air outlets close to the air return opening are reduced to 250 and 230L/min, the highest temperature is minus 19 ℃, the national standard is met, the temperature rise of defrosting at the top of the air return opening is 2.5 ℃, and the risk of defrosting is further reduced.
Illustratively, c can be 1/3, 1/2, 1, 3/2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, etc.
Alternatively, 1.ltoreq.c.ltoreq.3.
In this embodiment, the area of the first air return opening 23 at the top is larger than the area of the second air return opening 24 at the side, so that when the second air return opening 24 is limited in arrangement position, the area of the first air return opening 23 at the top is increased, the air return direction and the air return amount can be increased, and the refrigerating effect is improved.
Optionally, when the bottom wall of the evaporator cavity is further provided with the third air return port 25, the ratio d of the third air return port 25 to the second air return port 24 is in the range of 0 < d.ltoreq.1.
In this embodiment, the bottom wall of the evaporator cavity may also be provided with a third air return port 25, where the third air return port 25 can assist the second air return port 24 in returning air from multiple directions, preventing generation of a dead angle of return air, and increasing the area of return air. And further the refrigerating temperature in the refrigerator can be further reduced.
Illustratively, d may be 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, 2/3, etc.
For example, when d is 1/3, the air quantity in the refrigerator is about 1640L/min, and the return air quantity is increased. But the load temperature near the bottom of the side surface of the step is reduced from-19.2 to-19.8 ℃, which proves that the return air direction is rich, the refrigeration temperature of the load can be effectively reduced, and the refrigeration effect of the refrigerator is improved.
Optionally, 0 < d.ltoreq.1/2.
In this embodiment, when d is greater than 1/2, the area of the third air return opening 25 is larger, and the third air return opening 25 can block the effective air return area of the evaporator 30, so as to affect the total air return amount.
Optionally, 0 < d.ltoreq.1/4.
In this embodiment, when d is greater than 1/4, although the air volume in the refrigerator is increased, the increased air volume is small and occupies the return air area of the evaporator 30, so d is less than or equal to 1/4, which can increase the return air volume and also can increase the return air volume
Illustratively, the return air area of the second return air inlet 24 is 5940mm 2 When the area of the third air return opening 25 is 0, the average air quantity in the refrigerator is 1580L/min; the return air area of the second return air inlet 24 is 5940mm 2 The area of the third return air inlet 25 is 1300mm 2 When d is close to 1/4, the average air quantity in the refrigerator is 1625L/min; the return air area of the second return air inlet 24 is 5940mm 2 The area of the third air return opening 25 is 1920mm 2 When d is close to 1/3, the average air quantity in the refrigerator is 1633L/min; the return air area of the second return air inlet 24 is 5940mm 2 The area of the third air return opening 25 is 3344mm 2 When d is close to 1/2, the average air quantity in the refrigerator is 1640L/min; the return air area of the second return air inlet 24 is 5940mm 2 The area of the third air return opening 25 is 5700mm 2 When d is close to 1, the average air quantity in the refrigerator is 1210L/min.
From the above data, it can be seen that the air volume increases most significantly from the absence of the third return air port 25 to when d is near 4:1, and that the air volume does not increase or decrease when d is near 2:1 to 1:1, indicating that this arrangement has blocked the effective return air area to the evaporator 30.
Optionally, a first air return port 23 is provided on the top wall of the evaporator cavity, and when a third air return port 25 is provided on the bottom wall of the evaporator cavity, the ratio e of the first air return port 23 to the third air return port 25 is in a range of e being equal to or greater than 7.
In this embodiment, when e is smaller than 7, the difference between the first air return port 23 and the third air return port 25 is too large, so that the air return area of the evaporator 30 is easily occupied, and the air return amount of the refrigerator is affected.
Illustratively, e may be 1/2, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4.5, 5, 6, 7, etc.
The return air area of the first return air inlet 23 is 9426mm 2 When the area of the third air return opening 25 is 0, the average air quantity in the refrigerator is 1580L/min; the return air area 9426mm of the first return air inlet 23 2 When the area of the third air return opening 25 is 1300, and when e is close to 7, the average air quantity in the refrigerator is1625L/min; the return air area 9426mm of the first return air inlet 23 2 The area of the third return air inlet 25 is 1920mm 2 When e is close to 5, the average air quantity in the refrigerator is 1633L/min; the return air area 9426mm of the first return air inlet 23 2 The area of the third air return opening 25 is 3344mm 2 When e is close to 3, the average air quantity in the refrigerator is 1640L/min; the return air area 9426mm of the first return air inlet 23 2 The area of the third air return opening 25 is 5700mm 2 When e is close to 2, the average air quantity in the refrigerator is 1210L/min; from the above data, it can be seen that the increase in the air volume of the refrigerator is more remarkable when e is reduced to 7. The addition of the third air return opening 25, e, decreases, and the increase in the air return amount is not obvious or even decreases, which means that the third air return opening 25 blocks the air return area of the evaporator 30, and affects the overall air return amount.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 8, 12 and 14, the evaporators are located in the evaporator cavities, and the number of the evaporators can be one or more, when the number of the evaporators is multiple, the heat exchange effect of the evaporators and the air flow in the evaporator cavities can be increased, so that the refrigeration effect of the refrigerator is improved.

The second evaporator 32 is disposed at the other end of the evaporator cavity, and an included angle between the second evaporator 32 and the horizontal direction is smaller than or equal to the first angle. Wherein the total volume V of the evaporators is the sum of the volumes of the first evaporator 31 and the second evaporator 32.
By arranging the first evaporator 31 and the second evaporator 32, the first evaporator 31 is positioned at one end of the evaporator cavity, and the second evaporator 32 is positioned at the other end of the evaporator cavity, so that the refrigerating efficiency inside the refrigerator can be higher. Further, the first evaporator 31 and the second evaporator 32 are inclined at an angle smaller than or equal to the first angle with respect to the horizontal direction, so that the first evaporator 31 and the second evaporator 32 are inclined, and the first evaporator 31 and the second evaporator 32 facilitate the discharge of the defrost water. Specifically, the first angle may be 10 °, 15 °, 20 °, 25 °, 30 °. The first evaporator 31 and the second evaporator 32 are each provided with a drain port, and the first evaporator 31 and the second evaporator 32 are each inclined toward the drain port so that defrost water generated by the first evaporator 31 and the second evaporator 32 flows out of the refrigerator through the drain ports.

Further, the first air return opening 23 positioned at the top of the air return cavity and the second air return opening 24 positioned at the side surface of the air return cavity are respectively arranged at the first cover plate part 21 and the second cover plate part 22, so that the air return efficiency is higher, and the air flow circulation efficiency in the refrigerator is higher.
The relation between the total volume V of the evaporator and the total area S of the return air inlet is as follows: ys=v, where y is greater than or equal to 50. Here, the total area of the return air ports refers to the sum of the areas of all the return air ports.
Taking two evaporators and two air return openings as an example, as shown in fig. 12, the total volume of the two evaporators is V, the area of the first air return opening 23 is S1, the area of the second air return opening 24 is S2, and the total area S of the air return openings is the sum of the areas of the first air return opening 23 and the second air return opening 24.
Optionally, y is less than or equal to 1000.
So set up, according to actual refrigeration temperature requirement, can satisfy the relation between total volume V of evaporimeter and the total area S of return air inlet: ys=v, wherein y is less than or equal to 1000 on the premise that y is greater than or equal to 50, so that the actual refrigeration requirement of a user using the refrigerator can be met.
The return air cover plate 20 is provided with a return air inlet, when the refrigerator runs, air flow in the evaporator cavity flows into the air duct under the drive of the fan 5 after the temperature of the evaporator is reduced, then flows into the storage cavity through the air supply inlet 15, refrigerates articles in the storage cavity, and then flows back into the evaporator cavity through the return air inlet, so that a circulating air path of the refrigerator is formed. In the air circulation process, when the air pressure is constant and the depth of the air duct and the area of the air supply opening 15 are large enough, the size or area of the air return opening becomes one of the main factors affecting the air supply quantity in the air circulation process. In the embodiment of the disclosure, y is more than or equal to 50 and less than or equal to 1000, so that the air supply quantity of the air supply port 15 in the circulation air path of the refrigerator is improved.
It will be appreciated that the total volume V of the evaporator is in mm 3 I.e. cubic mm, the total area S of the return air opening being in mm 2 I.e. square millimeters, the value of y is calculated in this unit of measure. y may be a constant without units.
Optionally, y is greater than or equal to 55 and less than or equal to 700.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, y is more than or equal to 55 and less than or equal to 700, and meanwhile, the cooling speed and the cooling depth of the refrigerator are improved. In the following, the number of evaporators in the evaporator chamber is 1 as an example.
TABLE 1
As can be seen from Table 1 above, when the length, width and height of the evaporator were 196mm, 180mm and 100mm, respectively, the volume of the evaporator was 3528000mm 3 . According to the formula ys=v, different y values are calculated for different total areas of the return air inlets.
In Table 3, the y value of example 1 is 50, the y value of example 2 is 56, the y value of example 3 is 216, the y value of example 4 is 266, the y value of example 5 is 574, and the y value of example 6 is 985. The energy efficiency levels of the embodiment 3 and the embodiment 4 are one level, the energy efficiency levels of the embodiment 2 and the embodiment 5 are two levels, and the energy efficiency levels are obviously higher than the three-level energy efficiency levels of the embodiment 1 and the embodiment 6. Namely, when y is more than or equal to 55 and less than or equal to 700, the refrigerator can have better energy efficiency grade. Alternatively, 100.ltoreq.y.ltoreq.500. The cooling rates of examples 1, 2, 3 and 4 were 97 minutes, 83 minutes, 90 minutes and 121 minutes, respectively, which were significantly faster than those of examples 5 and 6, as viewed in the cooling rate parameter. Further, the refrigeration depths of example 3 and example 4 were-29 ℃ and-27.6 ℃ respectively, which are significantly lower than the refrigeration depths of example 1, example 2, example 5 and example 6, as viewed in terms of refrigeration depth. The cooling speed is the time for the refrigerator to be cooled to-18 ℃ from the ambient temperature, and the refrigerating depth is the lowest temperature which the refrigerator can reach. Further, the power consumption of example 3 and example 4 was 1.03 kW.h/24 h and 1.14 kW.h/24 h, respectively, which were significantly smaller than those of example 1, example 2, example 5 and example 6, respectively, in terms of the power consumption. Alternatively, 100.ltoreq.y.ltoreq.500.
When the y values of the embodiment 3 and the embodiment 4 are 216 and 266 respectively, the refrigerator has lower refrigeration depth and lower power consumption on the basis of ensuring a certain cooling speed, and belongs to primary energy efficiency. Is significantly better than example 1, example 2, example 5 and example 6.
It will be appreciated that when y is equal to or greater than 100 and equal to or less than 500, the refrigerator can achieve the same primary energy efficiency effect as that of embodiment 3 or embodiment 4.

The space L between the first evaporator 31 and the second evaporator 32 is set so as to satisfy: l is greater than or equal to S/(a '+c'). Wherein S is the total area of return air inlet, and a 'and c' are the length of two different positions of return air chamber or first evaporimeter 31 respectively, and, at least one of two different positions is close to the return air inlet, so can make the interval setting of a plurality of evaporimeters more reasonable to make the freezer effectively refrigerate, satisfy actual refrigeration demand.

Wherein a 'is the length of a position in the return air cavity near the first return air inlet 23, and a' is greater than or equal to the length of the first return air inlet 23 and less than or equal to the total length of the first cover plate portion 21 along the length direction of the first return air inlet 23.
So set up, set up the first return air inlet 23 that is located the return air chamber top at first apron portion 21, can make the air current in the freezer flow through first return air inlet 23 inflow return air chamber return air efficiency higher, and then make the air current circulation efficiency in the freezer higher. The length of a position, close to the first air return opening 23, in the air return cavity is taken as a ', so that a' is larger than or equal to the length of the first air return opening 23 and smaller than or equal to the total length of the first cover plate part 21 along the length direction of the first air return opening 23, and therefore the contact surface between the air flow entering the air return cavity from the first air return opening 23 and the evaporator is larger, and the heat exchange efficiency of the evaporator is higher.
Optionally, the first evaporator 31 comprises a first edge adjacent to the first return opening 23 and having a first length a. Wherein the length value of a' is equal to the first length a of the first edge.
So configured, the first edge of the first evaporator 31, which is adjacent to the first air return opening 23 and has the first length a, is a windward side of the first evaporator 31. The length value of a' is equal to the first length a of the first edge, so that the contact area between the windward side of the first evaporator 31 and the return air cavity is larger, and the heat exchange efficiency of the evaporator is higher.
Optionally, the return air cover 20 further includes a second cover portion 22 disposed along a vertical direction, and the second cover portion 22 is provided with a second return air opening 24 located at a side of the return air cavity.

The length of a position, close to the second air return opening 24, in the air return cavity is taken as c ', so that c' is greater than or equal to the length of the second air return opening 24 and less than or equal to the total length of the second cover plate part 22 along the length direction of the second air return opening 24, and therefore the contact surface between the air flow entering the air return cavity from the second air return opening 24 and the evaporator is larger, and the heat exchange efficiency of the evaporator is higher.
Optionally, the first evaporator 31 comprises a second edge adjacent to the second return opening 24 and having a second length c. Wherein the length value of c' is equal to the second length c of the second edge. That is, L.gtoreq.2V/y (a+c), or L.gtoreq.2abc/y (a+c).
So configured, the second edge of the first evaporator 31 adjacent to the second return air inlet 24 and having the second length c is the opposite side of the windward side of the first evaporator 31. The length value of c' is set to be equal to the second length c of the second edge, so that the contact area between the windward side of the first evaporator 31 and the return air cavity is larger, and the heat exchange efficiency of the evaporator is higher.

The size of the horizontal partition Wen Jianju m is set to be more than or equal to 2mm, so that the heat preservation requirement on the temperature in the evaporator cavity can be met, and the refrigerating effect of the refrigerator is further guaranteed. Further, the horizontal spacing Wen Jianju m is set to be less than or equal to 50mm, so that the horizontal spacing Wen Jianju m can save more space on the basis of meeting the heat preservation requirement on the temperature in the evaporator cavity. At the same time, more filling material can be saved for the same. If the horizontal spacing Wen Jianju m is set to a size of less than 2mm, the heat preservation effect on the evaporator intra-cavity temperature is poor. While setting the horizontal spacing Wen Jianju m to be greater than 50mm takes up more space and wastes more filler material.
Optionally, the return air cover 20 includes a first cover portion 21 disposed in a horizontal direction. Wherein a vertical thermal insulation distance n is provided between the evaporator and the first cover plate portion 21.
Through setting up vertical interval Wen Jianju n between evaporimeter and first apron portion 21 for carry out thermal-insulated processing to the evaporimeter, avoid the cold volume loss of evaporimeter, and then guarantee the heat transfer effect of air current and evaporimeter in the freezer, thereby improve the refrigeration effect of freezer.

Further, the vertical partition Wen Jianju n is sized to be less than or equal to 50mm, which allows the vertical partition Wen Jianju n to save more space while meeting the thermal insulation requirements for the evaporator cavity temperature. At the same time, more filling material can be saved for the same. If the vertical spacing Wen Jianju n is set to a size less than 2mm, the insulation effect on the evaporator cavity temperature is poor. While setting the vertical spacing Wen Jianju n to be greater than 50mm takes up more space and wastes more filler material.
Optionally, the horizontal thermal insulation distance m is filled with a thermal insulation material. And/or the vertical thermal insulation distance n is filled with thermal insulation materials.
By filling a thermal insulation material, such as a foam material, at a distance of either the horizontal thermal insulation distance m or the vertical thermal insulation distance n. Because the temperature in the evaporator cavity is lower, the foam with certain thickness can effectively inhibit the heat exchange between the evaporator cavity and the air in the external cabinet body of the evaporator cavity wall, thereby playing a role in preserving the temperature in the evaporator cavity and further ensuring the heat exchange effect between the air flow in the refrigerator and the evaporator. Meanwhile, a certain thickness of foam may also support the side cover part or the first cover part 21. Furthermore, the heat insulation materials can be filled in the horizontal separation Wen Jianju m and the vertical separation distance n, so that the heat insulation effect of the heat insulation materials on the temperature in the evaporation cavity is better.
Optionally, the volute depth g of the fan 5 is greater than or equal to 50mm. And/or the volute depth g of the fan 5 is less than or equal to 150mm.

Further, the size of the volute depth g of the fan 5 is set to be smaller than or equal to 150mm, so that more space can be saved on the basis of ensuring that the operation of the fan 5 is not disturbed. If the size of the volute depth g of the blower 5 is set to be less than 50mm, normal operation of the blower 5 may be affected. And the size of the volute depth g of the fan 5 is set to be larger than 150mm, so that more space is occupied.

TABLE 2
TABLE 3 Table 3
As can be seen from table 2 above, when the angle between the first auxiliary connection line and the second auxiliary connection line is set to 135 ° and the angle between the second auxiliary connection line formed by the wind wheel center 511 and the second volute tongue 524 and a perpendicular line is set to 32 °, the detection is performed twice under the same conditions, and the detection results are shown in example 1 and example 2, respectively. In embodiment 1, the wind speeds of the first wind channel 161 and the second wind channel 163 are 64.00% and 36.00%, respectively, and the final air supply volume is 1047.56L/min. In embodiment 2, the wind speeds of the first wind channel 161 and the second wind channel 163 are 63.76% and 36.24%, respectively, and the final air supply volume is 1040.57L/min. As can be seen from the results of examples 1 and 2, the wind speed of the fan is different for the first wind channel 161 and the second wind channel 163 in consideration of the natural settling of the cool wind. Further, as can be seen from the combination of table 3, the lowest temperature of the inner space of the refrigerator liner 10 in example 1 was-20.6 ℃ at the center of the bottom wall 13 of the liner 10, and the highest temperature was-19.3 ℃ at the front left of the top of the liner 10. Thus, the temperature difference between the highest temperature and the lowest temperature of the inner space of the refrigerator liner 10 is 1.3 ℃, and the data indicate that the temperature difference between the positions of the inner space of the refrigerator liner 10 is very small, that is, the data indicate that in the embodiment of the disclosure, the air speeds of the first air duct 161 and the second air duct 163 are different, so that the temperature difference between the different positions of the refrigerator is reduced, and the temperature uniformity of the refrigerator is improved.

Wherein, the total area of the air supply opening 15 of the first pressure stabilizing section air duct 1612 is larger than the area of the air supply opening 15 of the second pressure stabilizing section air duct 1632.
By providing the first air duct 161 as the first diffuser air duct 1611 directly communicating with the first fan outlet 53 and the first pressure stabilizing air duct 1612 communicating with the first diffuser air duct 1611, the flow of the refrigerant gas entering the inner space from the first air duct 161 can be more stabilized. The second air duct 163 is provided with a second diffuser air duct 1631 directly communicated with the second fan outlet 54 and a second pressure stabilizing air duct 1632 communicated with the second diffuser air duct 1631, so that the air flow of the refrigerant gas entering the inner space from the second air duct 163 can be more stable. Further, since the total amount of the refrigerant gas distributed by the first air duct 161 is more, the total area of the air supply ports 15 of the first pressure stabilizing section air duct 1612 is set to be larger than the area of the air supply ports 15 of the second pressure stabilizing section air duct 1632, so that the air supply ports 15 passing through the first air duct 161 can more effectively enter the internal space.
