DETAILED DESCRIPTION

(8) The present invention is further described hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings.

(9) As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 4, a side-open left-right-door arbitrary-opening structure of a refrigerator of the present invention comprises a refrigerator body and a refrigerator door, and handle frame bars 1, hinge shafts 2, hinge shaft stoppers 8, springs 9 and transmission bodies. Four hinge shafts 2 are fixedly connected at left and right sides of the refrigerator body in pairs respectively, left and right sides of upper and lower end faces of the refrigerator door are all provided with an opening neck 11, and each hinge shaft 2 is correspondingly placed in one opening neck 11. Four hinge shaft stoppers 8 are slidably arranged on the upper and lower end faces of the refrigerator door in pairs respectively, one spring 9 is arranged between two hinge shaft stoppers 8 in each pair, tail ends of the hinge shaft stoppers 8 on the upper and lower end faces of the refrigerator door extend into the opening necks 11 at the corresponding sides, and the hinge shafts 2 at the corresponding sides are positioned in the opening necks 11, so that the refrigerator door is closed on the refrigerator body.

(10) Two handle frame bars 1 are rotatably connected onto left and right end faces of the refrigerator door respectively, the handle frame bar 1 at each side is linked with two hinge shaft stoppers 8 at the corresponding sides of the upper and lower end faces of the refrigerator door through two transmission bodies, the handle frame bar 1 at the left or right side is pulled, and the pulled handle frame bar 1 simultaneously drives two hinge shaft stoppers 8 at the corresponding sides of the upper and lower end faces of the refrigerator door to slide and separate from the corresponding opening necks 11 through two transmission bodies, thus opening the refrigerator door at the moment.

(11) The transmission body in the present invention comprises a second rotating shaft 4, a rotating shaft connector 5, a first positioning shaft 6 and a second positioning shaft 7. The first positioning shaft 6 is fixedly connected onto the refrigerator door, the second positioning shaft 7 is fixedly connected onto the hinge shaft stopper 8, the rotating shaft connector 5 is sleeved on the first positioning shaft 6, and two ends of the rotating shaft connector 5 are provided with a round hole and a waist-shaped hole. The round hole of the rotating shaft connector 5 is sleeved on the second rotating shaft 4, and the waist-shaped hole is sleeved on the second positioning shaft 7.

(12) The refrigerator door is provided with a waist-shaped hole, the second rotating shaft 4 is inserted into the waist-shaped hole of the refrigerator door, and a bottom end of the second rotating shaft 4 extends into the handle frame bar 1. An upper end face of the handle frame bar 1 is provided with a waist-shaped hole, and a bottom end of the second rotating shaft 4 extends into the waist-shaped hole of the handle frame bar 1.

(13) In order to facilitate rotatable connection of the handle frame bar on the refrigerator door, a first rotating shaft 3 is fixed on the handle frame bar 1, and the handle frame bar 1 is rotatably connected onto the refrigerator door through the first rotating shaft 3.

(14) In order to better position and mount the spring, an inside end face of the hinge shaft stopper 8 is provided with a round hole, and the spring 9 is placed in the round hole of the hinge shaft stopper 8.

(15) In order to facilitate limitation of the position of the hinge shaft stopper 8 inserted into the opening neck, an outer wall at an outside end of the hinge shaft stopper 8 is provided with a limiting boss 81, and after an outside tail end of the hinge shaft stopper 8 extends into the opening neck 11 at the corresponding side, the limiting boss 81 abuts against an outer wall of the opening neck 11.

(16) Two sides of the hinge shaft stopper should be designed with ribs for guiding to ensure more stable sliding of the hinge shaft stopper 8.

(17) The present invention is specifically used as follows.

(18) In a state that the refrigerator door is closed:

(19) The hinge shafts 2 at two sides are all fixed at designed positions by the hinge shaft stoppers 8, and the refrigerator door is adsorbed on a front face of the refrigerator body through magnetic strips, thus keeping a stable state.

(20) When the refrigerator door needs to be opened at one side:

(21) in first step: a user presses the handle frame bar 1, and the handle frame bar rotates around the first rotating shaft 3, thus driving the second rotating shafts 4 to synchronously rotate around the first rotating shaft 3;

(22) in second step: the rotation of the second rotating shafts 4 drives the rotating shaft connectors 5 to rotate around the first positioning shafts 6;

(23) in third step: the other ends of the rotating shaft connectors 5 are connected with the hinge shaft stoppers 8 through the second positioning shafts 7, so that when the rotating shaft connectors 5 rotate around the first positioning shafts 6, the second positioning shafts 7 simultaneously drive the hinge shaft stoppers 8 to slide to the right in a set horizontal direction, and the spring 9 is compressed; and

(24) in fourth step: the hinge shaft stoppers 8 slide to the right, the hinge shafts 2 are released, and at the moment, the refrigerator door rotates around the hinge shafts at the other side, so that the refrigerator door is normally opened to take articles.

(25) 3. When the user closes the refrigerator door:

(26) the hinge shafts 2 enter from the opening necks, the hinge shaft stoppers 8 are pressed to the right through guide faces of the hinge shaft stoppers 8, the stoppers slide horizontally to the right along a set direction at the moment, the spring 9 is compressed, when the hinge shafts 2 completely pass through the hinge shaft stoppers 8, the spring 9 is elastically recovered, and the hinge shaft stoppers are pressed back to initial positions to ensure a stability of the refrigerator door.

(27) The description above is merely the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and it should be pointed out that those of ordinary skills in the art may further make several improvements without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements should also be regarded as falling within the scope of protection of the present invention.
