Next, this hydrogen ion arrives cathode layer 120 in the interior movement of dielectric film 116, and reacts with the built-in oxygen removing in the vegetable compartment 16 of moist chamber 30, and generates steam.Now, consume the oxygen of the vegetable compartment 16 flowing into from the exhaust outlet 108 of the exhaust outlet 138 of fixed component 134, unit box body 102.
Next the steam, producing in the cathode layer 120 of Dehumidifying element 104 spreads to vegetable compartment 16 from the exhaust outlet 138 of fixed component 134, the exhaust outlet 108 of unit box body 102.
Thus, in dehumidifying container 36, dehumidified, be accommodated in inner food and be dried, and, moistening by the steam of diffusion in vegetable compartment 16.
Finally, the humidity that control part 48 detects at humidity sensor 46 during lower than described lower limit reference humidity, stops dehydrating unit 100.
(7) effect
According to present embodiment, can dehumidify to the airtight moisture except in moist chamber 30, thus the food of the moisture of storage fearness securely.Now, for tea such as the powder of wheat flour, bread flour etc. or green tea, coffee, black tea, due to the vibration that can not produce because causing except moist chamber 30, therefore can not cause caking (blocking), thereby can make these food dryings and can not become highdensity state.
And dehydrating unit 100, without the drive part of motor (motor) etc., except vibration, can not produce noise yet, therefore easily uses for user yet.
And except moist chamber 30 is to be suspended to spacer body 26 by suspension member 33, the vibration therefore being caused by the compressor being located in refrigerator 10 can not be transmitted to except moist chamber 30, thereby can not make the food of storage vibrate.And then, except moist chamber 30 is states that suspend in midair and be fixed on vegetable compartment 16, even if therefore make vegetable compartment container 28 come in and go out, except moist chamber 30 also can not vibrate.
And, because steam spreads from the exhaust outlet 108 of dehydrating unit 100, therefore can utilize moisture to soak vegetable compartment 16 inside.
And, in the time that humidity is low, do not make dehydrating unit 100 drive, therefore can extend the life-span of Dehumidifying element 104, also there is energy-saving effect.
And, owing to being equipped with wet absorbent 128 in Dehumidifying element 104, therefore remove the moisture of moist chamber 30 inside first by these wet absorbent 128 moisture absorptions.And then Dehumidifying element 104 only just drives in the case of the humidity except moist chamber 30 rises.Therefore, can shorten conduction time and become energy-conservation, and can extend the life-span of Dehumidifying element 104.,, before wet absorbent 128 is saturated, need not make Dehumidifying element 104 drive.
And, because wet absorbent 128 has hydrophily, therefore easily moisture is carried out to moisture absorption.
(embodiment 2)
Next, the dehydrating unit 100 of the refrigerator 10 to embodiment 2 describes.
Present embodiment 2 is do not have wet absorbent used in Dehumidifying element 104 128 with the difference of embodiment 1.That is, in present embodiment 2, adopt following structure, that is: do not use wet absorbent 128, and collector body 122, anode layer 118 are exposed, utilize anode layer 118 directly to draw steam.
In present embodiment 2, also with embodiment 1 similarly, can dehumidify to the airtight inside except moist chamber 30 by dehydrating unit 100.
