Embodiment Construction

[0028] Hereinafter, modes for implementing the present invention (hereinafter, referred to as embodiments) will be described using the drawings.

[0029]

[0030] figure 1 It is a front view which shows the whole of the refrigerator which concerns on embodiment of this invention. figure 2 Yes figure 1 The longitudinal sectional view of the refrigerator 1 shown.

[0031] figure 1 and figure 2 The illustrated refrigerator 1 has a main body 1A. The main body 1A of the refrigerator 1 has a left side surface 17 , a right side surface 18 , an upper surface 19 , a bottom surface 15 , and a rear surface 16 . The main body 1A has an outer case composed of outer side panels and an inner case composed of inner side panels. Since the heat insulating material is arranged between the outer case and the inner case, the main body 1A has heat insulating properties. A plurality of storage compartments are formed inside the main body 1A.

Abstract

Provided is a refrigerator. Appearance design can be improved by saving space of an operation panel part. The refrigerator (1) comprises a main body (1A); doors (8, 7) which are equipped with front panels made of steel plates ad close the front opening part of the main body (1A); door opening devices (51, 52) allowing the doors (8, 7) to act; door opening operation parts (62, 61) generating movement signals of the door opening devices; and an operation panel part with a function selection part (80) for selecting functions of the main body and a display part (110) for displaying functions of the main body. The door opening operation parts (62, 61) and the operation panel part (70) are configured to be on the lower edge part (8P) of the door (8). The function selection part (80) of the operation panel part (70) is configure to be on the front side relative to the display part (110) of the operation panel part (70) in an overlapping manner.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to refrigerators. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, in the refrigerator disclosed in Patent Document 1, a display panel unit is provided at an intermediate position of the front panel of the door. [0003] In addition, in a structure in which the door of the refrigerator is composed of a steel plate side-by-side door (side-by-side door), there are a door opening operation part for detecting electrostatic capacitance to open and close the door and an operation panel part for selecting a function of the operation of the refrigerator. The structure arranged in the lower part of the side door made of steel plate. [0004] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2013-57431 [0005] As disclosed in Patent Document 1, when a display panel is provided at the middle position of the front panel of the door, it is necessary to form a vertically long rectangular shape for fitting the display panel ...
