  • Patent number: 10575639
    Abstract: A household appliance includes a connection mechanism fixing a door and a main body. The connection mechanism includes first and second components fixed by first and second fixing mechanisms. The first mechanism includes a first fixing member, a first hole on the first component and a second hole on the second component. The second mechanism includes a second fixing member, third holes elongated in a second direction at intervals on the first component and fourth holes at intervals in a first direction on the second component. When the second fixing member passes through a third hole and a fourth hole, the third and fourth holes define a distance between centers of remaining third holes and centers of remaining fourth holes in the first direction. The fourth holes adjust positions relative to the third holes in the second direction, causing the first and second components to relatively rotate.

  • Publication number: 20200025438
    Abstract: A refrigeration device has a main body, a first door with an opening, and a second door for opening and closing the opening. A first hinge member connects the first door to the main body and a second hinge member that is fixed on the first door including a second door hinge shaft connected to the second door. A first stop portion is fixed on a lower side of the second hinge member and is matched to a first limiting portion of the first hinge member. When the first door rotates to a first preset angle, the first stop portion abuts against the first limiting portion. A stop function is integrated on a hinge of a door body of the refrigeration device, thus reducing a quantity of parts of the refrigeration device and assembly complexity, and improving assembly precision and efficiency of the refrigeration device.
