Abstract
refrigerator comprises a cabinet 10, a door 20 for opening and closing the cabinet 10, and a hinge assembly 30 connecting the cabinet 10 and the door 20. The cabinet 10 comprises a rear wall and an opening 14 arranged opposite to each other. A direction in which the rear wall faces the opening is a first direction X. The cabinet 10 further comprises an accommodating chamber and a pivot side 13 adjacent to the hinge assembly 30, and when the door is opened, the hinge assembly 30 drives the door 20 to move away from the cabinet 10 in the first direction X and from the pivot side towards the accommodating chamber in the direction Y. The hinge assembly 30 comprises a first shaft 311, a first groove 321, a second shaft 312 and a second groove 322, the first shaft 311 and the first groove 321 are fitted with each other, and the second shaft 312 and the second groove 322 are fitted with each other. The first shaft 311 is located in one of the cabinet 10 and the door 20, the first groove 321 is located in the other of the cabinet 10 and the door 20, the second shaft 312 is located in one of the cabinet 10 and the door 20, and the second groove 322 is located in the other of the cabinet and the door. The refrigerator employs the hinge assembly 30 to facilitate opening of the door 20 relative to the cabinet 10, thereby enhancing the smoothness of a door opening operation.
