A refrigerator includes a freezing chamber and an ice making machine assembly. The ice making machine assembly includes an ice making machine main frame and an ice tray assembly. The refrigerator also includes a buckle structure that secures the ice making machine assembly to a top of the freezing chamber.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 - 10 . (canceled)
11 . A refrigerator, comprising:
a freezing chamber; an ice making machine assembly, wherein the ice making machine assembly includes an ice making machine main frame and an ice tray assembly; and a buckle structure that secures the ice making machine assembly to a top of the freezing chamber.
12 . The refrigerator of claim 11 , wherein the buckle structure includes a plurality of mounting holes provided on a top of the ice making machine main frame.
13 . The refrigerator of claim 12 , further comprising:
a plurality of hanging posts disposed on the top of the freezing chamber, wherein the plurality of hanging posts are engaged with the plurality of mounting holes.
14 . The refrigerator of claim 13 , wherein each mounting hole of the plurality of mounting holes has a first end facing an innermost side of the freezing chamber.
15 . The refrigerator of claim 14 , wherein a second end of each mounting hole of the plurality of mounting holes is disposed outside of the freezing chamber, and wherein a width of the first end is greater than a width of the second end.
16 . The refrigerator of claim 15 , wherein each hanging post of the plurality of hanging posts includes a hole that passes through the second end.
17 . The refrigerator of claim 12 , wherein the ice making machine assembly includes a hanging post having a column, wherein the column includes a first protruding portion provided at an end of the column, and wherein an outer diameter of the first protruding portion is larger than the mounting hole.
18 . The refrigerator of claim 12 , wherein each mounting hole of the plurality of mounting holes includes a first hole section and a second hole section that are connected.
19 . The refrigerator of claim 18 , wherein the first hole section includes a width that gradually decreases and a width of the second hole section remains unchanged.
20 . The refrigerator of claim 17 , wherein the hanging post includes a second protruding portion disposed outside the column.
21 . The refrigerator of claim 20 , wherein the second protruding portion and the first protruding portion are arranged at intervals along an axial direction of the column.
22 . The refrigerator of claim 21 , wherein a distance between the first protruding portion and the second protruding portion is commensurate with a depth of the mounting hole.
23 . A refrigerator, comprising:
a freezing chamber; an ice making machine assembly, wherein the ice making machine assembly includes an ice making machine main frame and an ice tray assembly; a buckle structure that secures the ice making machine assembly to a top of the freezing chamber, wherein the buckle structure includes a plurality of mounting holes provided on a top of the ice making machine main frame; and a plurality of hanging posts disposed on the top of the freezing chamber, wherein the plurality of hanging posts are engaged with the plurality of mounting holes.
24 . The refrigerator of claim 23 , further comprising:
a hollow column.
25 . The refrigerator of claim 23 , wherein the top of the ice making machine main frame is provided with the hollow column, and wherein the top surface of the ice making machine main frame has a hanging plate with a gap, and further wherein the plurality of mounting holes are formed on the hanging plate.
26 . The refrigerator of claim 25 , further comprising:
a door hingedly coupled to the freezing chamber, the door having a moveable end; and an elastic stopper buckle provided on a lower side of each mounting hole of the plurality of mounting holes close to the movable end of the door.
27 . The refrigerator of claim 26 , wherein the elastic stopper buckle has an inclined surface that slopes toward a first end of the mounting hole and a stop surface disposed at a second end of the mounting hole, and wherein the stop surface prevents the hanging post from moving toward the first end relative to the mounting hole.
28 . The refrigerator of claim 23 , wherein the ice making machine main frame includes an air guide connected to a freezing air duct, and wherein an inclined baffle is disposed at an outlet of an induced air duct, the inclined baffle used to guide cold air to the ice tray assembly.
29 . The refrigerator of claim 23 , wherein the ice tray assembly includes an ice making tray frame and an ice making tray installed on the ice making tray frame, and wherein the ice making tray frame is detachably inserted into the ice making machine main frame.
30 . The refrigerator of claim 29 , wherein the ice making machine main frame is connected with an ice turning motor and ice detection rod, and wherein the ice turning motor is connected to the ice making tray and drives the ice making tray to turn over.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
