[0030] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings as appropriate.
[0031] Figure 1 It shows the front view of the refrigerator 1 which concerns on embodiment of this invention.
[0032] Figure 2 1 shows a perspective view of the refrigerator 1 according to the embodiment as viewed from the oblique front. Figure 2 , the ice making compartment door 3, the upper freezing compartment door 4, and the lower freezing compartment door 5 are shown in a state where they are opened.
[0033] In the refrigerator 1 according to the embodiment, a refrigerating compartment 2r, an ice making compartment 3r, an upper freezing compartment 4r, a lower freezing compartment 5r, and a vegetable compartment 6r are arranged from top to bottom.
[0034] Figure 1 The refrigerator 1 shown includes a housing 1H and doors 2a, 2b, 3, 4, 5, and 6.
[0035] The housing 1H has an opening 1H0 (see Figure 2 The opening 1H0 of the box body 1H is opened and closed by doors 2a, 2b, 3, 4, 5, and 6.
[0036] The topmost refrigerator compartment 2r has a left refrigerator door 2a and a right refrigerator door 2b on the front. The second-level ice making compartment 3r and the upper freezer compartment 4r have an ice making compartment door 3 and an upper freezer compartment door 4, respectively. The third-level lower freezer compartment 5r has a lower freezer compartment door 5 on the front. The bottommost vegetable compartment 6r has a vegetable compartment door 6 on the front.
[0037] The left door 2a and the right door 2b of the refrigerator compartment are opened in opposite directions relative to the cabinet 1H. The left door 2a of the refrigerator compartment can be rotated toward the front by the upper hinge 7a and the lower hinge 8a. Similarly, the right door 2b of the refrigerator compartment can be rotated toward the front by the upper hinge 7b and the lower hinge 8b.
[0038] Figure 1 The second-layer ice-making compartment door 3, the upper-layer freezer compartment door 4, the third-layer lower-layer freezer compartment door 5, and the lowest-layer vegetable compartment door 6 are shown as being able to be pulled out toward the front of the drawing. An ice-making compartment container 3u, an upper-layer freezer compartment container 4u, a lower-layer freezer compartment container 5u, and a vegetable compartment container 6u are integrally provided at the rear of each of the ice-making compartment door 3, the upper-layer freezer compartment door 4, the lower-layer freezer compartment door 5, and the vegetable compartment door 6.
[0039] The vegetable compartment 6r on the lowermost level is a storage compartment for storing vegetables, fruits, plastic bottled beverages, and the like.
[0040] The outside and inside of refrigerator 1 are separated by a heat-insulating box 1H filled with a foam insulation material (not shown) and doors 2a, 2b, 3, 4, 5, and 6. For example, polyurethane foam is used as the foam insulation material.
[0041] <Box 1H>
[0042] The heat-insulating box 1H is composed of Figure 2 The outer box shown is 1s and the inner box is 1u (refer to Figure 5A ), vacuum insulation materials, etc. The outer box 1s is a metal plate such as a steel plate that covers the box body 1H. The outer box 1s is made of a thin iron plate, for example, with a wall thickness of 0.5mm to 0.4mm.
[0043] The inner box 1u is made by vacuum forming a synthetic resin, such as acrylonitrile butadiene styrene resin (ABS resin), but can also be other synthetic resins such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene resin (PP), polyethylene terephthalate resin (PET resin).
[0044] <Lower freezer door 5>
[0045] Figure 3A A front view showing the lower freezer door 5 is shown. Figure 3B A rear view of the lower freezer compartment door 5 is shown.
[0046] Figure 4A The figure shows a perspective view of the lower freezer door 5 as viewed from the upper right front. Figure 4B It is a perspective view of the lower freezer compartment door 5 as viewed from the lower right front.
[0047] like Figure 4A As shown, the lower freezer compartment door 5 has a front surface door panel 5a and a guide rail 5b.
[0048] The lower freezer compartment container 5u (see Figure 2 ).like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, the guide rail 5b is freely movable relative to the housing 1H. Therefore, the guide rail 5b is provided with a roller 5b1 that rolls on a rail portion (not shown) provided on the housing 1H.
[0049] Figure 4A 、 Figure 4B The front door panel 5a shown has a front panel 5a1, an upper frame panel 5a2, a lower frame panel 5a3, a right frame panel 5a4, a left frame panel 5a5 and a rear panel 5a6 (see FIG. Figure 3B ) Moreover, the front surface door panel 5a is formed by filling the interior with a foamed resin.
[0050] like Figure 2 、 Figure 4A As shown, a grip portion 5at is formed on the upper frame plate 5a2. When a user takes the lower freezer compartment container 5u out of the refrigerator 1, the grip portion 5at is gripped.
[0051] In the case where the front plate 5a1 of the lower freezer compartment door 5 is formed of a steel plate, the front plate 5a1, the right frame plate 5a4, and the left frame plate 5a5 are formed by bending a single steel plate.
[0052] The upper frame plate 5a2 is formed of a new plastic. The upper frame plate 5a2 is easy for the user to see, so a new plastic with excellent appearance is used.
[0053] The lower frame plate 5a3 is formed of recycled plastic. Since the lower frame plate 5a3 is difficult for the user to see, recycled plastic is used. This is because recycled plastic has a poor appearance compared to new plastic.
[0054] On the other hand, in the case where the front plate 5a1 of the lower freezer compartment door 5 is formed of a glass plate, only the front plate 5a1 is formed of a glass plate.
[0055] The upper frame plate 5a2 is formed of new plastic, and the lower frame plate 5a3 is formed of recycled plastic.
[0056] In addition, the right frame plate 5a4 and the left frame plate 5a5 use new plastics, but can also use recycled plastics. In this case, the right frame plate 5a4 and the left frame plate 5a5 can be implemented with decorations such as coloring.
[0057] The rear plate 5a6 is made of ABS resin or polypropylene resin (PP). Since it is difficult for the user to see, it can also be made of recycled plastic.
[0058] <Ice compartment door 3, upper freezer door 4, vegetable compartment door 6>
[0059] The ice making compartment door 3 , the upper freezer compartment door 4 , and the vegetable compartment door 6 , which are other drawer-type doors, are constructed similarly to the lower freezer compartment door 5 described above.
[0060] That is, Figure 1 As shown, the upper frame plate 3a2 of the ice making compartment door 3 is made of virgin plastic, while the lower frame plate 3a3 is made of recycled plastic. The upper frame plate 4a2 of the upper freezer compartment door 4 is made of virgin plastic, while the lower frame plate 4a3 is made of recycled plastic. The upper frame plate 6a2 of the vegetable compartment door 6 is made of virgin plastic, while the lower frame plate 6a3 is made of recycled plastic.
[0061] <Refrigerator left door 2a, refrigerator right door 2b>
[0062] The upper frame plate 2a2 and lower frame plate 2a1 of the left refrigerator door 2a, and the upper frame plate 2b2 and lower frame plate 2b1 of the right refrigerator door 2b are made of recycled plastic. This is because it is difficult for the user to visually see the upper frame plate 2a2 and lower frame plate 2a1 of the left refrigerator door 2a, and the upper frame plate 2b2 and lower frame plate 2b1 of the right refrigerator door 2b.
[0063] <Refrigerator 2r>
[0064] Figure 5A The front view of the uppermost refrigeration compartment 2r is shown as viewed from the front. Figure 5B express Figure 5A II sectional view.
[0065] The refrigerating chamber 2r is divided into a quenching chamber 2r1 on the lower right side, an ice-making chamber 2r2 on the lower left side, and a refrigerating shelf chamber 2r3 above the quenching chamber 2r1 and the ice-making chamber 2r2.
[0066] The refrigerated shelf room 2r3 is divided in the vertical direction by the quenching chamber upper shelf t1 and the refrigerated shelves t2, t3, and t4.
[0067] <Quenching Chamber 2r1>
[0068] Figure 6A A perspective view showing the chilling container 10 in the chilling chamber 2r1, Figure 6B A front view of the chilling container 10 in the chilling chamber 2r1 is shown.
[0069] Figure 7A A perspective view showing a state where the inner chill box 12 is pulled out from the chill box 11. Figure 7B The state in which the quenching inner box 12 is pulled out from the quenching box 11 is shown. Figure 6B II-II sectional view.
[0070] exist Figure 5A The quench chamber 2r1 shown is provided with a quench vessel 10.
[0071] like Figure 7A As shown, the chilling container 10 includes a chilling box 11 and a chilling inner box 12 that is inserted into and out of the chilling box 11 .
[0072] The chill box 11 has a box shape with an opening 11a at the front. The chill box 11 is located deep inside the refrigerator 1 and is difficult for the user of the refrigerator 1 to see. Alternatively, the chill box 11 may be made of recycled plastic in a dark color such as black or dark gray mixed with black.
[0073] Therefore, the chill box 11 is formed in a dark color. In addition, as Figure 5B As shown, since the chill box 11 is located deep in the refrigeration chamber 2r, it is difficult for the user to see. In addition, the foreign matter contained in the recycled plastic of the chill box 11 is also difficult to be seen by the user.
[0074] like Figure 7A As shown, the chilled inner box 12 includes a box-shaped box 12 c with a front and an upper opening for placing stored items, and a chilled door 13 .
[0075] The chilling door 13 is a door for opening and closing the opening 11a of the chilling box 11. The box-shaped case 12c is formed using recycled plastic.
[0076] Figure 7A 、 Figure 7B The chilling door 13 shown is rotatably mounted around a shaft 12c1 at the front portion of a box-shaped case 12c.
[0077] By the rotation of the quenching door 13, the quenching door 13 is transferred to Figure 6A 、 Figure 6B The closed state shown and Figure 7A 、 Figure 7B Shown in open state.
[0078] Figure 6A The illustrated chilling door 13 includes a frame 13a constituting a door body, a transparent or translucent flat front plate 13b, and a rod-shaped grip 13c.
[0079] Rod-shaped grips 13c are provided on both sides of the frame 13a. The grips 13c are provided for the user to grip when taking the box-shaped cartridge 12c out of the quench box 11.
[0080] The frame 13a is formed of new plastic. A decorative member 14 made of metal such as stainless steel or aluminum is provided from the upper surface to the front surface of the grip 13c.
[0081] The transparent or translucent front plate 13b is formed of recycled plastic. In other words, the front plate 13b is formed of recycled plastic (recycled resin) having light transmittance.
[0082] The upper surface of the front plate 13b is wrinkled to make it difficult to visually observe fine parts. Figure 7B As shown, when the chill door 13 is open and viewed from the user's line of sight p1 , it is possible to suppress visual perception of foreign matter in the recycled plastic of the transparent or translucent front plate 13 b .
[0083] like Figure 7A 、 Figure 7B As shown, when the inner chill box 12 is pulled out from the chill box 11, the chill door 13 is tilted by θ1 degrees with respect to the box-shaped box 12c so that the upper part is located at the front side (refer to Figure 7B ). For example, the tilt angle θ1 is about 45 degrees plus or minus 5 degrees. Figure 7B 、 Figure 7A As shown, the front plate 13b made of recycled plastic is difficult for the user p1 to see.
[0084] <Ice making compartment container 3u, upper freezer container 4u, lower freezer container 5u and vegetable compartment container 6u>
[0085] Figure 2 The vegetable compartment container 6u of the vegetable compartment 6 and the ice making compartment container 3u of the ice making compartment 3 are shown as being formed from a single layer of nascent plastic.
[0086] This is because the vegetable compartment container 6u and the ice compartment container 3u may come into direct contact with food, so recycled plastic materials are not used. Thus, the safety of the food stored in the vegetable compartment container 6u and the ice compartment container 3u is maintained.
[0087] The upper freezer container 4u and the lower freezer container 5u are made of recycled plastic. This is because the food stored in the upper freezer container 4u and the lower freezer container 5u will not directly come into contact with the containers 5u, 4u.
[0088] <Cooling panel 15>
[0089] Figure 8 It shows the front view of the cooling panel 15 which comprises the refrigerating chamber 2r.
[0090] like Figure 5B As shown, the cooling panel 15 is provided on the inner side of the refrigerating chamber 2r. The cooling panel 15 forms the inner wall of the refrigerating chamber 2r and has an air passage 15f formed therein. The air passage 15f allows cooling air to flow through the refrigerating chamber 2r.
[0091] The cooling panel 15 is formed with a plurality of cool air outlets 15i for cooling air from the air passage 15f and cool air return ports 15o1, 15o2, and 15o3 for the cooling air.
[0092] Furthermore, a deodorant (described in detail later) is provided at the cold air return port 15o2 at the lower right portion of the cooling panel 15 .
[0093] Figure 9 An exploded view of the cooling panel 15 is shown.
[0094] The cooling panel 15 is composed of an upper cooling panel 15U and a lower cooling panel 15S.
[0095] The upper cooling panel 15U is visually observed by the user and is therefore formed using new plastic.
[0096] The lower cooling panel 15S is arranged at Figure 5A The quench box 11 of the quench chamber 2r1 shown is positioned at the rear, and the rear end of the quench chamber shelf t1 disposed above the quench box 11 is disposed close to the cooling panel 15 and is hidden (see FIG. Figure 5B ), the user is difficult to see, so it is formed using recycled plastic. Therefore, the cooling panel 15 can be manufactured in consideration of the environment.
[0097] Figure 10 express Figure 8 Sectional view III-III.
[0098] Figure 11 express Figure 8 IV-IV sectional view of FIG.
[0099] The upper cooling panel 15U and the lower cooling panel 15S are engaged with each other by means of claws 16 (see Figure 10 ) and screw fixation 17 (refer to Figure 11 ) combined. Claw fitting 16 (refer to Figure 10 )Use the elasticity of plastic. Screw fixation 17 (refer to Figure 11 ) is based on screw fastening fixation.
[0100] As described above, recycled plastics tend to be harder and more brittle than raw materials (new plastics).
[0101] Therefore, in Figure 10 In the illustrated claw fitting 16, claws 16a are provided on the upper cooling panel 15U, which is made of raw material (virgin plastic), while claw receivers 16b are provided on the lower cooling panel 15S, which is made of recycled plastic. This is because claws 16a deform more significantly than claw receivers 16b. Consequently, claw fitting 16 is highly reliable.
[0102] exist Figure 11 In the case of the screw fixing 17 shown, the threaded boss 17a is formed of the raw material (new plastic) on the upper cooling panel 15U. The hole 17b for the screw to pass through is provided in the recycled plastic lower cooling panel 15S. Therefore, the reliability of the screw fixing 17 is high.
[0103] The cooling panel 15, which is a combination of the upper cooling panel 15U and the lower cooling panel 15S, is fixed to the inner box 1u (see Figure 5A Thus, the cooling panel 15 is fixed to the inner box 1u by the upper cooling panel 15U made of a soft and tough material, and thus can be fixed with high reliability.
[0104] Figure 5A The upper shelf t1 of the quenching chamber and the cold air return cover 19 are fixed to the upper cooling panel 15U of the cooling panel 15 which is made of soft and tough new plastic.
[0105] All the parts of the inner box 1u fixed to or supported by the refrigerating chamber 2r are made of the raw material new plastic.
[0106] <Deodorant>
[0107] Figure 12 It indicates the flow of cold air Figure 1 II sectional view.
[0108] The cooling panel 15 (see Figure 5A ) is equipped with an evaporator for refrigeration (not shown).
[0109] The cold air generated by the evaporator for refrigeration is blown out from the cold air outlet 15i of the cooling panel 15 (see Figure 5A ) is blown into the refrigerating chamber 2r ( Figure 12 Then, from Figure 8 The cold air return ports 15o1, 15o2, and 15o3 shown in FIG. 1 are connected to the air passage 20f1 at the back of the refrigerating chamber 2r (see FIG. Figure 12 )exhaust.
[0110] In addition, Figure 12 An evaporator (not shown) for freezing is arranged on the back of the freezing compartment Fr shown, that is, the ice making compartment 3r, the upper freezing compartment 4r, and the lower freezing compartment 5r.
[0111] The cold air generated by the evaporator for refrigeration Figure 12 The air outlet fr1 at the upper rear portion of the freezing chamber Fr shown blows air into the freezing chamber Fr ( Figure 12 Then, from Figure 12 The cold air return port fr2 at the rear lower portion of the freezer compartment Fr shown in FIG. 1 is directed to an air passage 20f2 (see FIG. 20f3 ) at the rear of the freezer compartment Fr. Figure 12 )exhaust.
[0112] Afterwards, the air passage 20f2 (refer to Figure 12 ) is discharged to the vegetable compartment 6r and circulates in the vegetable compartment 6r ( Figure 12 Arrow α13) returns to the air path 20f2 on the back of the freezer compartment Fr.
[0113] However, recycled plastics sometimes have concerns about odor.
[0114] For example, in the refrigerator compartment 2r, if the cold air outlet (inlet) 15i (see Figure 5A ) is placed near the refrigerator compartment, the odor may be carried by the wind and attached to other foods in the refrigerator compartment 2r.
[0115] Therefore, the odor is stored in the cold air return port 15o2 (refer to Figure 8 Then, a deodorant 21 is placed near the cold air return port 15o2.
[0116] Therefore, if Figure 8 As shown, in the refrigerator 1, a lattice-shaped deodorant box 21c is formed near the cold air return port 15o2. The deodorant box 21c is configured to hold the deodorant 21. This can prevent odor from adhering to the refrigerating chamber 2r.
[0117] In the above example, the cold air return port 15o2 (see Figure 8 ) is placed on the deodorant 21, but it can also be configured to be in the cold air return port fr2 (see Figure 12 ) ) The cold air return port fr3 of the vegetable compartment 6r (refer to Figure 12 ) Set up a deodorant box and deodorant.
[0118] <How to use recycled plastic (recycled resin)>
[0119] exist Figure 1 、 Figure 2 In the refrigerator 1 shown, the recycled plastic (recycled resin) is a portion that is difficult to see by the user standing on the front side of the refrigerator 1. Figure 8 、 Figure 9 As shown in FIG. 1 , the cooling panel 15 is composed of an upper cooling panel 15U and a lower cooling panel 15S. The upper cooling panel 15U is visually observed by the user and is therefore formed of new plastic. Figure 5A As shown, the lower cooling panel 15S is hidden behind the quenching box 11 of the quenching chamber 2r1 and the upper shelf t1 of the quenching chamber when the refrigerator door 2 is opened (see FIG. Figure 5A ), which is difficult for users to see, so it is made of recycled plastic.
[0120] This makes it possible to prevent foreign matter contained in the recycled plastic (recycled resin) from being visually detected.
[0121] According to the above configuration, since the refrigerator 1 uses recycled plastic components, it is possible to realize an environmentally friendly refrigerator 1. In addition, since the refrigerator 1 uses recycled plastic components, it is possible to achieve cost reduction.
