Accordingly, the sensor 58 is disposed in the groove 56 while being held by the holding portion 64.
As shown in fig. 4, the refrigerator 10 further includes a control unit 70. The control unit 70 is disposed on the upper surface of the main body 12 (see fig. 2). In the modification, the control unit 70 may be disposed on the rear surface of the main body 12 or may be disposed inside the main body 12. The control unit 70 executes a cooling program for cooling the storage compartments 30, 32, 34, 36, and 38 using cooling-related components such as the fans 50 and 52 and a compressor (not shown). Further, the control unit 70 is connected to the communication unit 28 and the sensor 58. The control unit 70 can communicate with the communication unit 28. The control section 70 continuously acquires information on the temperature from the sensor 58.
The control section 70 executes, in accordance with a request from the mobile terminal 2: and a transmission program for transmitting information on the temperature detected by the sensor 58 to the mobile terminal 2 via the communication unit 28. The following were used: fig. 5, which shows the change over time in the temperature detected by the sensor 58, illustrates a transmission routine executed by the control unit 70. The transmission program executed by the control unit 70 will be described by being divided into the sections a1, a2, A3, a4, and a5 shown in fig. 5.
The interval a1 shown in fig. 5 is: this indicates a section in which the temperature detected by the sensor 58 changes when the door 14 is kept in the closed state for a long time. Thus, in the interval a1, the sensor 58 detects: a constant temperature T1 over time. In this case, the control unit 70 transmits information of the temperature T1 acquired by the sensor 58 to the mobile terminal 2.
The interval a2 shown in fig. 5 is: this indicates a section in which the detected temperature of the sensor 58 changes until the 1 st predetermined period elapses from the time when the closed door 14 is opened. When the closed door 14 is opened, the cool air circulating in the refrigerating compartment 30 by the driving of the fan 50 flows out to the outside of the refrigerating compartment 30. Accordingly, the air around the sensor 58 disposed on the bottom surface of the right door 14b is cooled. Thus, the temperature detected by the sensor 58 decreases with the time elapsed after opening the door 14. Here, the 1 st predetermined period is: in the general refrigerator 10, a time required until the temperature detected by the sensor 58 reaches a constant after the door 14 is opened. The 1 st predetermined period is determined by a preliminary experiment. The 1 st predetermined period is, for example, 5 seconds to 20 seconds, and in the present embodiment, 10 seconds. In the section a2, the controller 70 transmits information on the temperature T1 before the door 14 is opened, that is, the temperature T1 detected by the sensor 58 in the section a1, to the mobile terminal 2.
The interval a3 shown in fig. 5 is: this indicates a section in which the temperature detected by the sensor 58 changes after the door 14 is opened and the 1 st predetermined period has elapsed until the door 14 is closed. In the interval a3, the sensor 58 detects: a temperature of temperature T2 that is constant with time. The temperature T2 is lower than the temperature T1. In this case, the control unit 70 transmits information of the temperature T1 detected by the sensor 58 in the section a1 to the mobile terminal 2.
The interval a4 shown in fig. 5 is: the section indicates a change in the detected temperature of the sensor 58 until the 2 nd predetermined period elapses after the door 14 is closed. When the opened door 14 is closed, the cold air does not flow to the outside of the refrigerator compartment 30. Thus, the temperature detected by the sensor 58 increases with the time elapsed after closing the door 14. Here, the term "2 nd predetermined period" means: in the general refrigerator 10, it takes time until the temperature detected by the sensor 58 becomes constant after the door 14 is closed. The 2 nd predetermined period is determined by a preliminary experiment. The predetermined period 2 is, for example, 1 minute to 5 minutes, and in the present embodiment, 3 minutes. In the section a4, the control unit 70 transmits information of the temperature T1 when the door 14 is closed, that is, information of the temperature T1 detected by the sensor 58 in the section a1 to the mobile terminal 2.
The interval a5 shown in fig. 5 is: the section indicates a change in the detected temperature of the sensor 58 after the 2 nd predetermined period has elapsed after the door 14 is closed. In the interval a4, the sensor 58 detects: a constant temperature T1 over time. In this case, the control unit 70 transmits information of the temperature T1 acquired by the sensor 58 to the mobile terminal 2.
(Effect)
The refrigerator 10 according to embodiment 1 is explained above. As described above, the refrigerator 10 includes: main body 12, door 14, sensor 58, communication unit 28, and control unit 70. The main body 12 has a refrigerator compartment 30. The door 14 can close the front surface opening of the refrigerator compartment 30. When the refrigerator 10 is viewed from the front, the sensor 58 is disposed on the bottom surface of the door 14 and detects the temperature around the refrigerator 10. The communication unit 28 can communicate with the portable terminal 2 carried by the user. The control unit 70 transmits information of the temperature detected by the sensor 58 to the mobile terminal 2 via the communication unit 28. According to this configuration, the sensor 58 is used to detect the temperature around the refrigerator 10 in the range where the user is present. Thus, the user can grasp, through the mobile terminal 2: the temperature of the surroundings of the refrigerator 10 in the range of the user. For example, when an elderly elder lives separately from the child, the child can grasp by the mobile terminal 2: the temperature around the refrigerator 10 in the range of the elderly people in the residence where the elderly people live. As a result, when an abnormality occurs in an elderly person, the abnormality can be quickly grasped.
The main body 12 further has: when the refrigerator 10 is viewed from the front, the vegetable compartment 32 is disposed adjacent to the lower side of the refrigerating compartment 30. For example, in the case where main body 12 has a freezing chamber disposed adjacent to the lower side of refrigerating chamber 30 when refrigerator 10 is viewed from the front, sensor 58 may not be able to accurately detect the temperature around refrigerator 10 because of the freezing chamber cooled to the freezing temperature zone. According to the above configuration, the temperature around the refrigerator 10 can be accurately detected by the sensor 58.
When the closed door 14 is opened, the control unit 70 transmits information of the temperature T1 detected by the sensor 58 in the state where the door 14 is closed to the mobile terminal 2 via the communication unit 28 until the 1 st predetermined period (10 seconds in the present embodiment) elapses after the door 14 is opened. After the door 14 of the refrigerator 10 is opened, the periphery of the refrigerator 10 is temporarily cooled by cold air flowing from the refrigerating compartment 30 to the outside of the refrigerating compartment 30. Thus, a difference is generated between the temperature detected by the sensor 58 and the actual temperature of the surroundings of the refrigerator 10. According to the above configuration, since the control unit 70 transmits the information of the temperature T1 detected by the sensor 58 before the door 14 is opened to the mobile terminal 2 until the 1 st predetermined period elapses after the door 14 is opened, the user of the mobile terminal 2 can accurately grasp the temperature around the refrigerator 10.
When the opened door 14 is closed, the control unit 70 transmits information of the temperature T1 detected by the sensor 58 in the state where the door 14 is closed to the mobile terminal 2 via the communication unit 28 after the 2 nd predetermined period (3 minutes in the present embodiment) has elapsed after the door 14 is closed. When the opened door 14 is closed, the temperature around the refrigerator 10 detected by the sensor 58 increases, and becomes constant after a certain period of time. With the above configuration, the sensor 58 can accurately detect the temperature around the refrigerator 10. Accordingly, the user of the portable terminal 2 can accurately grasp the temperature around the refrigerator 10.
The refrigerator 10 is also provided with a cover 60 covering the sensor 58. The cover 60 has an opening 62 a. With this configuration, the space inside the groove 56 and the space around the refrigerator 10 communicate with each other through the opening 62a of the cover 60. Thereby, the sensor 58 can accurately detect the temperature around the refrigerator 10.
Although specific examples of the present invention have been described above in detail, these are merely examples and do not limit the scope of the claims. The technology described in the scope of the claims includes: various modifications and changes may be made to the specific examples described above.

Further, the left side surface 15b of the right door 14b is: a side surface located on the left end side and pivotally supported on the opposite side of the right end of the main body 12. In a state where the left door 14a and the right door 14b are closed, the left side surface 15b of the right door 14b faces the right side surface 15a of the left door 14 a. The main body 62 of the cover 60 covers the opening of the groove portion 56. The sensor 58 is disposed in the groove 56 in a state where the sensor 58 is held by the holding portion 64 of the cover 60.

The sensor 58 is disposed on the left side surface 15b of the right door 14b and detects the temperature around the refrigerator 10. The communication unit 28 can communicate with the portable terminal 2 carried by the user. The control unit 70 transmits information of the temperature detected by the sensor 58 to the mobile terminal 2 via the communication unit 28. With this configuration, the sensor 58 can detect the temperature around the refrigerator 10 in the range of the user. Thus, the user can grasp the temperature around the refrigerator 10 in the range where the user is present, by the portable terminal 2. For example, when an elderly elder lives separately from the child, the child can grasp by the mobile terminal 2: the temperature around the refrigerator 10 in the range of the elderly people in the residence where the elderly people live. As a result, when an abnormality occurs in an elderly person, the abnormality can be quickly grasped.
