[0008] (The knowledge and other information that formed the basis of this disclosure) At the time when the inventors came up with the present disclosure, there was a technology for partitioning the opening of a storage body with a partition member that is hung in a substantially cross shape when viewed from the front. In the conventional technology, a partition member that is integrally formed in the vertical and horizontal directions is formed, and then the partition member is filled with a heat insulating material. However, in the conventional technology, there is a problem that the partition member cannot be commonized among various product lineups, and the inventors discovered a problem that in the process of filling the partition member with the heat insulating material, the number of work-in-progress used in the process increases, and the jig required for filling the heat insulating material becomes large. On the other hand, the inventors discovered a problem that when the opening is partitioned with separate partition members in the vertical and horizontal directions, the partition members are formed separately, and therefore the number of parts increases, and the number of assembly steps increases. In order to solve these problems, the subject of the present disclosure has been constituted. Therefore, the present disclosure provides a storage facility that enables the use of standardized partition members, improves the workability of filling the partition members with insulating material, and reduces the number of assembly steps.

[0009] Hereinafter, the embodiments will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. However, in some cases, more detailed explanations than necessary may be omitted. For example, detailed explanations of already well-known matters or duplicate explanations of substantially the same configurations may be omitted. It should be noted that the accompanying drawings and the following description are provided to enable those skilled in the art to fully understand the present disclosure, and are not intended to limit the subject matter described in the claims.

[0010] (Embodiment 1) Hereinafter, the first embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. The symbol FR shown in each drawing indicates the front of the storage 1 in the installed state, the symbol UP indicates the upper side of the storage 1, and the symbol LH indicates the left side of the storage 1. In the following description, each direction is along the direction of the storage 1.

[0011] [1-1. Configuration] Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a storehouse 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 2 is a front view of the storehouse 1. In Fig. 2, a door 4 and a machine room 6 are omitted. Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along line III-III in Fig. 2. As shown in Fig. 1, the storage facility 1 includes a storage facility main body 2, a plurality of doors 4, a machine room 6, and a partition member 20. The machine room 6 is disposed above the storage facility main body 2. A refrigeration device 61 that constitutes a refrigeration cycle is housed inside the machine room 6. The refrigeration device 61 includes a compressor 62, a condenser 63, a condenser blower 64, a capillary tube 65, and an electrical box 66, and these are driven to send cold air into the storage facility 2A.

[0012] The storage body 2 includes a storage chamber 2A. The storage body 2 includes an opening 2B that is rectangular in front view on the front side. In other words, in this embodiment, the opening 2B is located in the forward direction relative to the storage body 2. The opening 2B is covered by four doors 4 so as to be openable and closable. The doors 4 are flat members having a predetermined thickness and formed to be thermally insulated. The storage body 1 includes two sets of doors 4, one above the other, with a pair of doors 4 arranged in the left-right direction as one set. Each door 4 is supported by a hinge 11 on the side of the storage body 1, and can be opened and closed in the left-right direction of the storage body 1. That is, the pair of doors 4 are so-called double-doors. On the front side of each door 4, a handle 18 is provided on the side surface adjacent to each other in the left-right direction.

[0013] The storage body 2 is a box having an insulating wall 3. The insulating wall 3 is composed of a pair of side walls 71, 72, an upper wall 73, a lower wall 74, and a back wall 75. The partition walls 71 to 75 are all formed in a panel shape. The storage body 2 is formed by assembling the partition walls 71 to 75. Each of the partition walls 71 to 75 is formed by filling a space surrounded by an outer plate 5 and an inner plate 7 with an insulating material. The outer plate 5 and the inner plate 7 are connected by a connecting member 9. The outer plate 5 and the inner plate 7 are both formed of a metal such as a stainless steel plate, and the insulating material is polystyrene foam, hard urethane foam, or the like.

[0014] The outer plate 5 and the inner plate 7 are not limited to metal, and may be formed of hard resin such as ABS resin. The outer plate 5 and the inner plate 7 may be formed by combining metal and hard resin. Although the storage container body 2 is formed by assembling the partition walls 71-75, the storage container body 2 may be formed by placing a box-shaped inner box inside a box-shaped outer box, with a heat insulating material sandwiched between the outer box and the inner box.

[0015] [1-1-1. Composition of partition members] As shown in Fig. 2, a partition member 20 configured in a substantially cross shape when viewed from the front is attached to the opening 2B of the storage main body 2. The partition member 20 is a pillar, beam, or girder-shaped member that divides the opening 2B. The substantially cross-shaped partition member 20 includes a vertical partition member (second partition member) 21 connected to the upper and lower edges of the opening 2B, and a horizontal partition member (first partition member) 23 connected to a pair of side edges on both sides of the opening 2B.

[0016] The opening 2B is divided into two parts, left and right, by the vertical partition member 21, and into two parts, top and bottom, by the horizontal partition member 23. That is, the opening 2B is divided into top, bottom, left and right by the partition member 20. The vertical partition member 21 and the horizontal partition member 23 are provided so as to overlap at an intersection 41 located at the center of the approximately cross shape. The vertical partition member 21 is provided with a first heater 55A and a second heater 55B different from the first heater 55A inside each of the upper half and lower half parts divided by the intersection 41 as a boundary. The horizontal partition member 23 is provided with one third heater 55C that penetrates the intersection 41 and is continuous left and right.

[0017] 4 is an exploded oblique view showing the intersection 41 of the partition member 20, FIG. 5 is a VV cross-sectional view of FIG. 2, FIG. 6 is a VI-VI cross-sectional view of FIG. 4, FIG. 7 is a VII-VII cross-sectional view of FIG. 2, and FIG. 8 is a VIII-VIII cross-sectional view of FIG. 2. 4, the vertical partition member (second partition member) 21 has a vertical fitting portion (fitting portion) 43 formed at the position of the intersection 41 into which the horizontal partition member (first partition member) 23 fits. The vertical fitting portion 43 is formed so that the front side is recessed at the position of the intersection 41. As shown in Fig. 5, the outer shell 100 of the vertical partition member 21 excluding the vertical fitting portion 43 includes a resin outer shell portion 27 having a U-shaped cross section. The outer shell 100 covers the opening of the outer shell portion 27 and includes a metal cover member 25 to which a magnet is attached. The inside of the outer shell 100 is filled with a heat insulating material 10. The heat insulating material 10 is polystyrene foam, hard urethane foam, or the like.

[0018] An outer shell portion 27 of the vertical partition member 21 is formed in a generally box-like shape with an open front side, and a metallic lid member 25 is attached to the front side of the outer shell portion 27. Note that the lid member 25 may be made of any heat-conductive material and is not limited to being made of metal. Lid member 25 is formed with dimensions smaller than front opening 29 of outer shell part 27, and is fitted into front opening 29 and locked by locking portion 31. Locking portion 31 is formed integrally with the inner surface of outer shell part 27. Lid member 25 is divided into upper cover member 25U and lower cover member 25D at intersection 41 as shown in Fig. 4. In addition, a first heater 55A or a second heater 55B is arranged on the back surface of lid member 25. A shelf support portion 30 for supporting the shelf 15 is provided on the outer rear surface of the outer shell portion 27 of the vertical partition member 21, which is the opposite side to the cover member 25. A plurality of shelf supports 30 are provided in the direction in which the vertical partition member 21 extends.

[0019] 6, the outer shell 100A of the vertical fitting portion (fitting portion) 43 includes a resin outer shell portion 27A and a resin cover member 50 that covers the opening 29A of the outer shell portion 27A, and the inside of the outer shell 100A of the vertical fitting portion 43 is filled with a heat insulating material 10. The depth dimension of the outer shell portion 27A of the outer shell 100A is formed to be approximately half the depth dimension W1 of the outer shell portion 27 of the outer shell 100 other than the vertical fitting portion 43. The depth dimension W1 is the front-rear dimension of the storage chamber 2A. The outer shell 100 includes an outer shell 100A of the vertical fitting portion 43, and an outer shell portion 27A of the outer shell 100A is integral with the outer shell portion 27. The insulating material 10 inside the outer shell 100A is filled in series with the insulating material 10 shown in Fig. 5. That is, the inside of the outer shell 100 including the outer shell 100A of the vertical fitting portion 43 is filled with the insulating material 10. A pair of locking portions 51 are integrally formed on the back surface of the cover member 50. Each locking portion 51 is composed of a pair of protrusions 53, and a cord 57 is locked between the pair of protrusions 53. As described below, the cord 57 connects the first heater 55A and the second heater 55B.

[0020] As shown in Fig. 4, the vertical partition member 21 has a pair of flanges 33 corresponding to the upper and lower sides of the vertical fitting portion 43. A vertical groove 45 is formed by a resin cover member 50. The vertical groove 45 corresponds to a concave surface formed to be recessed in the vertical fitting portion 43. The flanges 33 protrude outward from the side surface of the outer shell portion 27 of the vertical partition member 21 as shown in Fig. 5. In other words, the flanges 33 protruding outward from the side surface of the outer shell portion 27 of one of the partition members 21 are formed around the vertical groove 45 of the one of the partition members 21. The flanges 33 of the vertical partition member 21 are formed with a rectangular mounting elongated hole 35 and a circular through hole 37A.

[0021] As shown in Fig. 4, the vertical partition member 21 intersects with the horizontal partition member 23 on the rear side of the horizontal partition member 23. The horizontal partition member 23 has a horizontal fitting portion (fitting portion) 47 into which the vertical partition member 21 fits at the position of the intersection 41. The configuration of the outer shell 102 of the horizontal partition member 23 excluding the horizontal fitting portion 47 is substantially the same as the configuration of the outer shell of the vertical partition member 21 corresponding to Figs. 5 and 6, and therefore description thereof will be omitted. 7 and 8, the outer wall 102A of the lateral fitting portion 47 includes a resin outer shell portion 27A and a resin cover member 52 that covers a recessed portion of the outer shell portion 27A, and the inside of the outer wall 102A of the lateral fitting portion 47 is filled with a heat insulating material 10. The outer wall 102 includes the outer wall 102A of the lateral fitting portion 47, and the outer shell portion 27A of the outer wall 102A is integral with the outer wall portion 27. The inside of the outer wall 102 including the outer wall 102A of the lateral fitting portion 47 is filled with a heat insulating material 10. Further, a lateral concave groove 49 is formed by the cover member 52. The lateral concave groove 49 corresponds to a concave surface of the lateral fitting portion 47 that is formed to be recessed. Incidentally, the horizontal partition member 23 does not necessarily have to be provided with the shelf support portion 19.

[0022] 4, a right outer shell recess 27R and a left outer shell recess 27L are formed in the outer shell portion 27 of the horizontal partition member 23 at positions corresponding to the flange 33 of the vertical partition member 21. A plurality of fixing holes 37B are provided in the right outer shell recess 27R and the left outer shell recess 27L. When the vertical partition member 21 and the horizontal partition member 23 are joined together, the flange 33 of the vertical partition member 21 fits into the right outer shell recess 27R and the left outer shell recess 27L, and the vertical partition member 21 and the horizontal partition member 23 are joined together by screwing a screw (not shown) that passes through the through hole 37A of the flange 33 into the fixing hole 37B. After the vertical partition member 21 and the horizontal partition member 23 are joined, a corner cover 39 is attached to the position of the intersection 41, as shown in FIG.

[0023] By forming the depth of the recessed grooves 45, 49 of both partition members to be half the depth dimension W1 of the outer shell portion 27 of the partition member, the front-to-rear dimension of the outer shell portion 27 can be made uniform when both partition members are joined. It is possible for the vertical partition member 21 to be a pillar material having a uniform rectangular cross section by omitting the vertical fitting portion 43. In this case, when both partition members are joined, the front portion of the vertical partition member 21 is set back further rearward than the front portion of the horizontal partition member 23, and a gap is formed between the vertical partition member 21 and the door 4 (see Figure 1), so it is desirable to interpose a filling member with excellent heat conductivity between the vertical partition member 21 and the door 4.

[0024] [1-1-2. Configuration of shelf support] As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the inner plate 7 constituting the back wall 75 in the storage chamber 2A is provided with four shelf support parts 19 that extend in the vertical direction and support the shelf 15 (see Figure 1). In addition, the inner plates 7 constituting the side walls 71, 72 in the storage chamber 2A are each provided near the opening 2B with one shelf support part 19 that extends in the vertical direction and supports the shelf 15 (see Figure 1). A plurality of notches 19A are formed in the front surface of each shelf support part 19 at equal intervals in the vertical direction. 3 and 5, a shelf support portion 30 for supporting a shelf 15 (see FIG. 1) is provided on the outer rear surface of the outer shell portion 27 of the vertical partition member 21, which is the opposite side to the cover member 25. A plurality of shelf support portions 30 are provided at intervals in the extension direction of the vertical partition member 21. No shelf support portion 19 is provided on the horizontal partition member 23.

[0025] The shelf support portion 30 of the vertical partition member 21 has a notch 30A formed therein, similar to the shelf support portion 19 arranged on the back wall 75 and the side walls 71 and 72. A shelf support member 15A is fitted into this notch 30A and the notch 19A of the shelf support portion 19 described above, and the shelf 15 is supported on this shelf support member. As shown in Fig. 3, two shelves 15 are arranged in the storage chamber 2A, one on the left side and one on the left side, and the shelf 15 on the left side in the figure is supported by the shelf support member 15A fitted into the three notches 19A on the left side and one notch 30A on the left side of the storage chamber 2A, and the shelf 15 on the right side in the figure is supported by the shelf support member 15A fitted into the three notches 19A on the right side and one notch 30A on the right side of the storage chamber 2A. The shelves 15 are installed at the same height as the upper surface of the horizontal partition member 23, but may be installed across the entire vertical width of the shelf support portion 19. Furthermore, the number of shelves 15 to be installed is not limited.

[0026] [1-1-3. Heater installation configuration] Next, the heater mounting structure will be described. First, as shown in FIG. 1, when the door 4 is closed, the door 4 and the partition member 20 are in close contact with each other through the packing 13 (see FIG. 1). There is a risk of condensation at the part where they are in close contact. To prevent condensation, a heater is disposed in the partition member 20. The heater is disposed in the metal cover member 25 constituting the partition member 20. The cover member 25 is divided into an upper cover member 25U and a lower cover member 25D at the position of the intersection 41 as shown in FIG. 3. Therefore, the metal cover member 25 does not exist in the vertical recessed groove 45 of the vertical partition member 21. Therefore, the heater of the vertical partition member 21 is divided into two, and a first heater 55A and a second heater 55B are disposed inside the upper half and the lower half, respectively, as shown in FIG. 2. The first heater 55A and the second heater 55B are disposed so as to be separated from each other across the intersection 41.

[0027] The first heater 55A inside the upper half has a meandering heater wire arranged therein, and the heater wire is integrally covered with metal foil (not shown) and attached to the back surface of the lid member 25 using an adhesive tape (not shown) or the like, as shown in FIG. The second heater 55B inside the lower half is arranged with a meandering heater wire in the same manner as the first heater 55A, and the heater wire is integrally covered with metal foil (not shown) and, although not shown, is attached to the back surface of the cover member 25 using adhesive tape or the like. That is, the first heater 55A and the second heater 55B are housed inside the portion of the vertical partition member 21 where the vertical recessed groove 45 is not formed.

[0028] As shown in Figs. 6 to 8, the first heater 55A and the second heater 55B are connected by a cord 57 on the front surface inside the vertical recessed groove 45 of the vertical partition member 21. The first heater 55A and the cord 57, and the second heater 55B and the cord 57 are connected by crimping. The cord 57 is arranged inside the outer shell 100A of the vertical fitting portion 43 (see Fig. 6), and is locked by a pair of protrusions 53 on the back surface of the resin-made cover member 50 that constitutes the vertical recessed groove 45. After that, the inside of the cover member 50, the lid member 25, and the outer shell portion 27 are filled with the heat insulating material 10, and the cord 57 is fixed by the heat insulating material 10. As a result, the connection parts between the first heater 55A and the cord 57 and between the second heater 55B and the cord 57 are buried in the heat insulating material 10. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the infiltration of water into the connection parts.

[0029] As shown in FIG. 4, the horizontal partition member 23 has a horizontal recessed groove 49 formed by recessing the rear surface of the horizontal partition member 23. Therefore, a single metal cover member 25 is present on the front surface side of the horizontal partition member 23. As shown in FIG. 2, the cover member 25 of the horizontal partition member 23 extends the same length as the horizontal partition member 23, and one third heater 55C is attached to the rear surface of the cover member 25. That is, the horizontal partition member 23 has one third heater 55C inside it, extending in the longitudinal direction of the horizontal partition member 23. The third heater 55C is formed by meandering a heater wire, and the heater wire is integrally covered with a metal foil (not shown) and attached to the rear surface of the cover member 25 with an adhesive, similar to the first heater 55A and the second heater 55B.

[0030] The first heater 55A and the second heater 55B are detachably connected to a power line 67 via a connector (not shown). The connector connected to the first heater 55A and the second heater 55B is drawn out from the upper part of the vertical partition member 21 and is connected to a connector connected to the power line 67 above the vertical partition member 21. The power line 67 is also detachably connected to the third heater 55C via a connector (not shown). As shown in FIG. 2, the power line 67 connected to the first heater 55A and the second heater 55B is extended to the upper part of the center of the opening 2B, inserted into a through hole (not shown) of the storage body 2, and drawn out to the machine room 6 side above the storage body 2. The connector connected to the third heater 55C is drawn out from the left side of the opening 2B and coupled to a connector connected to a power line 67. As shown in Fig. 2, the power line 67 coupled to the third heater 55C is routed inside the storage body 2 filled with a thermal insulating material, on the left side of the opening 2B. Furthermore, the power line 67 coupled to the third heater 55C is extended from the connection point with the third heater 55C to the upper left side of the opening 2B, inserted into a through hole (not shown) in the storage body 2, and drawn out to the machine room 6 side above the storage body 2. The method of connecting the power line 67 to each of the heaters 55A to 55C is not limited to the above-mentioned method. For example, the power line 67 may be drawn inside the vertical partition member 21 and connected to the first heater 55A inside the vertical partition member 21. That is, a connection point may be provided at the top of the vertical partition member 21. The power line 67 may also be drawn from the left side of the opening 2B, further drawn inside the horizontal partition member 23, and connected to the third heater 55C inside the horizontal partition member 23.

[0031] As described above, the intersecting portion 41 of the partition members 20 is formed so that one partition member 20 is recessed, and a fitting portion into which the other partition member 20 is fitted is provided. The vertical fitting portion 43 and the horizontal fitting portion 47 correspond to an example of a fitting portion. The vertical groove 45 and the horizontal groove 49 correspond to an example of a groove.

[0032] 2, 6, and 7, the vertical partition member 21 accommodates a cord 57 connecting the first heater 55A and the second heater 55B on the back side of the cover member 50. On the back side of the cover member 50, referring to FIG. 6, two locking portions 51 are provided across the top and bottom of the cover member 50. The locking portion 51 is composed of two protrusions 53, and locks the cord 57 by providing the cord 57 to run between the protrusions 53.

[0033] [1-2. Effects, etc.] If the partition member 20 is integrally formed in a cross shape, the tool required for foaming and filling the insulating material such as hard urethane foam will become large. On the other hand, if the partition member 20 is divided at the intersection 41 where the two partition members 20 overlap, the labor costs will increase and the number of connection points for the heater provided inside the partition member 20 will also increase. In this embodiment, as shown in Figures 2 and 4, a vertical fitting portion 43 is provided on the vertical partition member 21, and a horizontal fitting portion 47 is provided on the horizontal partition member 23, so that the opening 2B can be partitioned without dividing the partition member 20.

[0034] In this embodiment, the vertical partition member 21 has a cover member 50 that defines the vertical recessed groove 45 at the intersection 41, and a locking portion 51 for locking a cord 57 is provided on the back surface of the cover member 50. According to this, the second heater 55B located at the lower part of the vertical partition member 21 can be connected to the first heater 55A by the cord 57 located at the intersection 41 of the vertical partition member 21. Therefore, the first heater 55A and the second heater 55B are connected to the power line 67 at the upper part of the vertical partition member 21, and are not connected at the lower part or below the vertical partition member 21, and are therefore not affected by condensation water that collects below the storage body 2.

[0035] Furthermore, since the locking portion 51 grips the cord 57, it is possible to prevent the thermal insulation material 10 from shifting out of position when it is foam-filled into the vertical partition member 21. Furthermore, if the partition member 20 is integrally formed into a cross shape, there is a risk that more heaters than necessary will be placed at the intersection 41. However, in this embodiment, only the third heater 55C is placed in front of the intersection 41, thereby reducing power consumption.

[0036] [1-3. Effects, etc.] As described above, the storage facility 1 in this embodiment comprises a storage facility main body 2 having a storage chamber 2A, and a plurality of partition members 20 provided at the opening 2B of the storage chamber 2A, and the plurality of partition members 20 are filled with insulating material 10 inside each outer shell portion 27, and are composed of a vertical partition member 21 (one partition member) having a vertical groove 45 (groove) in the outer shell portion 27, and the other partition member 20 that fits into the vertical groove 45 of the vertical partition member 21.

[0037] This makes it easier to standardize the partition member 20 across a variety of product lineups compared to forming the partition member 20 into a cross shape in advance and filling the inside of the outer shell 27 of the partition member 20 with the insulating material 10. Also, by configuring one partition member 20 to be stacked on top of the other partition member 20, the one partition member 20 and the other partition member 20 can be formed separately in advance, improving the workability of filling the partition members 20 with the insulating material 10 and reducing the assembly labor.

[0038] Furthermore, the depth of the vertical groove 45 and the horizontal groove 47 may be formed to be half the width W1 of the outer shell portion 27 in the fitting direction.

[0039] This can improve the strength of each partition member 20.

[0040] In addition, the storage body 2 has a power line 67 for supplying electricity, and the partition member 20 includes a vertical partition member 21 extending in the vertical direction and a horizontal partition member 23 extending in the horizontal direction, the vertical partition member 21 is arranged inside the vertical partition member 21 and has a first heater 55A and a second heater 55B which generate heat when electricity is passed through them, the horizontal partition member 23 has a third heater 55C which generates heat when electricity is passed through it, and the first heater 55A arranged inside the vertical partition member 21 may be connected to the power line 67 above the vertical partition member 21.

[0041] This makes it possible to avoid locating the connection point between first heater 55A and power line 67 below storage facility 1 where condensed water is likely to accumulate.

[0042] The storage chamber 2A further includes a shelf 15 that is provided inside the storage chamber 2A and supported by shelf support portions 19, 30, and the partition member 20 includes a vertical partition member 21 that extends in the vertical direction and a horizontal partition member 23 that extends in the horizontal direction, and a shelf support portion 30 may be provided on the rear portion of the vertical partition member 21.

[0043] If the vertical partition member 21 were divided, when installing the shelf 15 at the same height as the upper surface of the horizontal partition member 23, a shelf support part would also be required on the rear surface of the horizontal partition member 23. On the other hand, according to the configuration of this embodiment, if the shelf support part 30 is provided only on the vertical partition member 21, the shelf 15 can be installed at the same height as the upper surface of the horizontal partition member 23. This makes it possible to reduce the number of parts. Furthermore, while there is a risk of warping of the vertical partition member 20 due to the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the storage chamber 2A, since the vertical partition member 21 is provided with a shelf support portion 30 extending in the vertical direction at the rear surface portion, the section modulus of the vertical partition member 21 can be increased, thereby suppressing the occurrence of warping.

[0044] In addition, a flange 33 protruding outward from the side of the outer shell portion 27 of the vertical partition member 21 may be provided around the vertical groove 43 of the vertical partition member 21 (one of the partition members), and a right outer shell recess 27R and a left outer shell recess 27L into which the flange 33 of the vertical partition member 21 fits may be formed on the outer shell portion 27 of the horizontal partition member 23 (the other partition member), and the vertical partition member 21 and the horizontal partition member 23 may be joined by fitting the flange 33 of the vertical partition member 21 into the right outer shell recess 27R and left outer shell recess 27L of the horizontal partition member 23.

[0045] This improves the strength of the connection between the partition members 20.

[0046] Furthermore, the vertical partition member 21 and the horizontal partition member 23 may be joined by screwing screws passing through the through holes 37A of the flange 33 into the fixing holes 37B of the right outer shell recess 27R and the left outer shell recess 27L.

[0047] This improves the strength of the connection between the partition members 20. Also, one partition member 20 can be disposed overlapping the other partition member 20. This improves the workability of filling the partition members 20 with the insulating material 10, and reduces the number of assembly steps.

[0048] In addition, a corner cover 39 may be disposed at the intersection 41 between the vertical partition member 21 and the horizontal partition member 23 , and the corner cover 39 may be engaged with the elongated mounting hole 37 of the flange 33 .

[0049] According to this, the flanges 33 can improve the strength of the connection between the partition members 20, while the flanges 33 can be provided with elongated mounting holes for engaging the corner covers 39, thereby improving the aesthetic appearance.

[0050] (Other embodiments) As described above, the above-mentioned first embodiment has been described as an example disclosed in the present application. However, the technology in the present disclosure is not limited to this, and can be applied to embodiments in which modifications, substitutions, additions, omissions, etc. are made. In addition, it is also possible to combine the components described in the above-mentioned first embodiment to create a new embodiment. Therefore, other embodiments will be exemplified below.

[0051] In the first embodiment, the partition member 20 is formed in a substantially cross shape in front view, but is not limited thereto. For example, one or more horizontal partition members 23 may be stretched across one or more vertical partition members 21 and fitted together. FIG. 9 shows a perspective view of two horizontal partition members 123 stretched across one vertical partition member 121 and fitted together. In this case, the intersections 41 are present at multiple locations, but all of the intersections 41 can be realized in the same form as in the first embodiment. The metal frame of the vertical partition member 121 according to the embodiment of FIG. 9 is divided into an upper cover member 125A, an inner cover member 125B, and a lower cover member 125C.

[0052] In the intersecting portion 41 of the first embodiment, a recessed groove is provided in both the vertical partition member 21 and the horizontal partition member 23. Although not shown in the drawings, it is possible to join the two partition members in a form in which a recessed groove is formed in one of the partition members 21, 23 and a recessed groove is not formed in the other partition member 21, 23.

[0053] As shown in Fig. 10, the intersection 41 of the first embodiment can have a fitting form in the opposite direction to that of Fig. 4. The vertical partition member 221 has a vertical groove 249 corresponding to the concave surface of the vertical fitting portion, and the horizontal partition member 223 has a horizontal groove 245 corresponding to the concave surface of the horizontal fitting portion. In this case, the third heater 55C arranged inside the horizontal partition member 223 is divided into two parts at the intersection 41, and each heater is connected by a cord 57, and the first heater 55A and the second heater 55B inside the vertical partition member 21 may be combined into one heater. Here, the portion of the outer periphery 200 of the vertical partition member 221 including the vertical groove 249 constitutes the outer periphery 200A of the vertical fitting portion, and the portion of the outer periphery 202 of the horizontal partition member 223 including the horizontal groove 245 constitutes the outer periphery 202A of the horizontal fitting portion. In addition, in FIG. 10, the horizontal partition member 223 may be formed as a beam material having a uniform rectangular cross section by omitting the horizontal groove 245. In this case, when both partition members are joined, the front portion of the horizontal partition member 223 is set back further rearward than the front portion of the vertical partition member 221, and a gap is formed between the horizontal partition member 223 and the door 4 (see Figure 1), so it is desirable to interpose a filling member with excellent heat conductivity between the front portion of the horizontal partition member 223 and the door 4.

[0054] That is, the partition member 20 includes a vertical partition member 221 and a horizontal partition member 223, the vertical groove 249 of the vertical partition member 221 is formed so as to recess the rear surface portion of the vertical partition member 221, and the horizontal groove 245 of the horizontal partition member 223 is formed so as to recess the front surface portion of the horizontal partition member 223, and the first heater 55A and the second heater 55B may be disposed inside the horizontal partition member 223. According to this, the first heater 55A, the cord 57, and the second heater 55B are disposed on the rear side of the horizontal partition member 223. Therefore, the heaters disposed in the horizontal partition member can be connected at one location.

[0055] The storage facility 1 also comprises a storage facility main body 2 having a storage chamber 2A, and a vertical partition member 221 and a horizontal partition member 223 provided at an opening 2B of the storage chamber 2A. The vertical partition member 221 and the horizontal partition member 223 have an insulating material 10 filled inside their respective outer shell portions 27, and are composed of a vertical partition member 221 having a vertical groove 249 in its outer shell portion 27, and a horizontal partition member 223 that fits into the vertical groove 249 of the vertical partition member 221. This makes it easier to standardize the partition member 20 across a variety of product lineups compared to forming the partition member 20 into a cross shape in advance and filling the inside of the outer shell 27 of the partition member 20 with the insulating material 10. Also, by configuring one partition member 20 to be stacked on top of the other partition member 20, the one partition member 20 and the other partition member 20 can be formed separately in advance, improving the workability of filling the partition members 20 with the insulating material 10 and reducing the assembly labor.

[0056] It should be noted that the above-described embodiments are intended to illustrate the technology of the present disclosure, and various modifications, substitutions, additions, omissions, and the like can be made within the scope of the claims or their equivalents.
