Benefits of technology

[0009]Another advantage of the present invention is the heat dissipated from a condenser will be isolated from an air conditioning environment. Therefore, less energy will be consumed by an air conditioner in summer time.
[0010]The present invention also prevents inside air pollution from potential refrigerant leak from a compressor or a condenser if they are put outside a building.
[0011]Finally, the separation of the compressor and / or the condenser will leave more space for food storage.

Problems solved by technology

The noise generated by a compressor is unavoidable since a refrigerator is typically located inside a house or building.
Unfortunately, it is difficult because a refrigerator has to be put in a place close to people for convenience.
Further, current refrigerators are energy inefficient because of the heat dissipated from the condenser coil of a refrigerator.
In addition, potential refrigerant leak from a compressor or condenser can pollute the inside air of a building.

Embodiment Construction

[0015]Hereinafter, a split refrigerator will be described in detail.

[0016]FIG. 1 is the view of a split refrigerator. 102 is the unit which contains freezer and / or refrigerator compartments, an evaporator 101, and an expansion valve or capillary tube 104. The unit 102 is similar with a conventional refrigerator except that the compressor 105 and condenser 103 are separated and located in another unit 108. The two units 102 and 108 are connected via two detachable refrigerant pipes which are the gas pipe 106 and the liquid pipe 107.

[0017]The compressor 105 of a refrigerator generates noise as it compresses the refrigerant from low pressure vapor to high pressure and high temperature vapor. The condenser 103 dissipates heat to its surrounding environment to liquefy the refrigerant vapor. Therefore, the disagreeable noise and heat will be eliminated from a living environment by separating the unit 108 and the unit 102 and locating the unit 108 in a place away from the unit 102.

Abstract

The compressor, evaporator, and condenser of a conventional refrigerator are integrated in one unit. The present invention separates the compressor and / or condenser from the refrigerator unit and locates them in another package unit. The two units are connected via attachable refrigerant pipes. The new split refrigerator will be quiet, efficient, and safe.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001]Not Applicable.STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT[0002]Not Applicable.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]The present invention relates to a cooling apparatus. Specifically, the invention relates to an apparatus for food storage.[0004]Currently the compressor, evaporator, and condenser of a refrigerator are integrated in one unit. The noise generated by a compressor is unavoidable since a refrigerator is typically located inside a house or building. It has become one of the popular noise pollutions in building environment. People, particularly, those who are noise sensitive, are trying different ways to reduce or get rid of it. Unfortunately, it is difficult because a refrigerator has to be put in a place close to people for convenience.[0005]Further, current refrigerators are energy inefficient because of the heat dissipated from the condenser coil of a refrigerator. In summer season, an air conditioner must ta...
