Publication number: 20240358046Abstract: A magnetic field freshness-preserving storage container (200) and a refrigerator (10). The magnetic field freshness-preserving storage container (200) comprises: a storage assembly (210), in which a storage space for holding a stored object is defined; and one or more magnetic field assemblies (201) respectively sleeved on the periphery of the storage assembly (210). Each magnetic field assembly (201) comprises: one or more magnetic components (220) arranged on an outer side of the storage assembly (210) and used to form a magnetic field in the storage space; and an annular magnetically conductive component (230), which comprises uniform magnetization plates (231) arranged corresponding to the magnetic components (220), and connecting straps (232) connected to the uniform magnetization plates (231) and arranged around the periphery of the storage assembly (210), the uniform magnetization plates (231) and the connecting straps (232) forming an annular magnetic conduction path outside the storage space.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 21, 2022Publication date: October 31, 2024Inventors: Yanfeng ZHAO, Mengcheng LI, Bin FEI, Xiaobing ZHU, Lisheng JI, Yuning ZHANG, Yao YI, Tao LI, Zilin CAO

Publication number: 20240353155Abstract: A magnetic field freshness-preserving storage container and a refrigerator. The magnetic field freshness-preserving storage container includes a storage box, two uniform magnetization plates, and two sets of electromagnetic components. Each set of electromagnetic components is arranged corresponding to one uniform magnetization plate and forms an electromagnetic field after being electrified. The magnetic field distribution of the electromagnetic field can be changed by means of the uniform magnetization plates, such that the electromagnetic field is distributed more uniformly in the storage space. Since the electromagnetic field is distributed more uniformly in the storage space, stored objects can have the same storage quality. In addition, the uniform magnetization plates can save on the consumption of magnetic materials.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 21, 2022Publication date: October 24, 2024Inventors: Yanfeng ZHAO, Xiaobing ZHU, Mengcheng LI, Bin FEI, Yuning ZHANG, Yao YI, Lisheng JI, Zilin CAO, Tao LI

Publication number: 20240318903Abstract: Disclosed are a heating method and a refrigerating and freezing apparatus (200) having a heating unit (100). The heating method comprises: controlling a heating unit (100) to operate to heat an object to be processed (150); if a heating suspension condition is met, recording a current heating parameter of the heating unit (100), and controlling the heating unit (100) to stop operating; and if a heating continuation condition is met, controlling the heating unit (100) to continue operating according to the recorded heating parameter. By means of recording the most recent heating parameter before the heating unit (100) stops heating, heating continues according to the recorded heating parameter after heating is resumed, thereby simplifying a control process, preventing a re-determined heating parameter from causing an object to be processed (150) to be excessively heated, shortening a heating time, and reducing unnecessary energy consumption.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 24, 2022Publication date: September 26, 2024Inventors: Yanfeng ZHAO, Xiaobing ZHU, Chunyang LI, Ming WANG, Zhigiang HAN, Jinghai AL

Publication number: 20240288210Abstract: A refrigeration system and a refrigerating appliance. The refrigeration system includes: a refrigeration assembly including a compressor, and an evaporator, forming a refrigeration circuit; and a defrost bypass pipeline connected to the refrigeration circuit for circulating refrigerant from the compressor to generate heat; the defrost bypass pipeline is thermally connected with the evaporator to heat the evaporator. By adding a defrost bypass pipeline connected to the refrigeration circuit and thermally connecting it with the evaporator, the evaporator can be heated for defrosting when the refrigerant from the compressor flows through the defrost bypass pipeline. Since the refrigerant from the compressor can produce a significant amount of heat when passing through the defrost bypass pipeline, this manner of defrosting can enhance the defrosting rate of the evaporator and enable quick, efficient, and thorough defrosting.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 25, 2022Publication date: August 29, 2024Inventors: Yanfeng ZHAO, Lisheng JI, Xiaobing ZHU, Jianquan CHEN, Yongsheng SUN, Xianghui ZHAO
