Problems solved by technology

Therefore, due to the thermal bridge (thermal bridge) of the protective case, there is a possibility that sufficient heat insulation cannot be obtained.
[0007] In addition, depending on the concave-convex shape of the outer surface of the inner box, there is a possibility that a gap not filled with foam insulation material is formed between the inner box and the protective case, There is a possibility of causing a decrease in thermal insulation
Therefore, it is necessary to expand the space between the inner box and the protective case, and there is a possibility that the size of the refrigerator may increase.

Abstract

The invention provides a refrigerator and a manufacturing method, which can protect a vacuum heat insulation material, prevent a heat bridge, improve heat the insulation performance and realize miniaturization. The refrigerator (1) is provided with an inner box (2), an outer box (3) covering the inner box (2), a space (S1) formed between the inner box (2) and the outer box (3), and a foamed heat-insulating protective material (10) disposed in the space (S1) and attached to the inner box (2). The foamed heat-insulating protective material (10) has a plate-shaped vacuum heat-insulating material (11) and a foamed heat-insulating material (12) that supports at least a portion of the vacuum heat-insulating material (11). The foamed heat-insulating protective material (10) is attached to the inner box (2) by means of the foamed heat-insulating material (12).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a refrigerator and a manufacturing method. Background technique [0002] Generally, in order to save energy and expand an effective space inside a refrigerator, a vacuum heat insulating material is disposed in a space formed between an inner box and an outer box of the refrigerator. The space formed between the inner case and the outer case is filled with a foam heat insulating material. Vacuum heat insulating materials are generally constituted by covering them with a thin resin board, so there is a possibility of damage due to trauma during manufacture or when a strong impact is received during use. [0003] Conventionally, the technique disclosed in patent document 1 is known as the technique which prevents the damage of a vacuum heat insulating material. Patent document 1 is provided with the protective case which accommodates a vacuum heat insulating material, and after accommodating a vacuum heat insulating mate...
