Here, cooling unit 53 is that the execution according to R refrigerating mode and F refrigerating mode drives R fan 28 and F fan 52, but,, promptly carry out the humidification running even proceed to drive stopping behind R evaporimeter 26 the supply system cryogens still at the appointed time (for example 5 minutes) for R fan 28.This is for by making the frost evaporation that is attached on the R evaporimeter 26 improve the humidity of the cold air of air-supply in refrigerator 1, and the humidity that improves the cold air of conveying in refrigerating chamber 2 like this is the feature of this refrigerator just.
In addition, by selectively to R evaporimeter 26 and F evaporimeter 51 the supply system cryogens, can be in time with evaporimeter 26 and opened cooling in 51 minutes, so with 1 cooler the structure that refrigerating chamber and refrigerating chamber cool off is compared, the refrigerating capacity of freezing unit needn't be very high, so just can adopt the compressor of low output, in other words, can adopt the compressor of low power consumption, this point also is the feature of this refrigerator.
The below effect of explanation said structure.
When the temperature of refrigerating chamber 2 surpassed as design temperature 2 ℃, cooling unit 53 was carried out the R refrigerating modes.That is, make frequency-changeable compressor 54 runnings by switch three-way valve 56 output with 140W under the state of R evaporimeter 26 the supply system cryogens.Because R evaporimeter 26 is cooled to-18 ℃ approximately under this operating condition, so drive in the execution according to the R refrigerating mode under the state of R fan 28 ,-18 ℃ Quilt with air conditioning is transported to refrigerating chamber 2 approximately.
Wherein, though transparent demarcation strip 47 is arranged between refrigerating chamber 2 and the vegetable compartment 3 to be separated, but,, make vegetable compartment 3 coolings so the cold air of carrying to refrigerating chamber 2 by the execution of R refrigerating mode also is transported to vegetable compartment 3 owing to form connected entrance 48 at the regulation position of transparent demarcation strip 47.In this occasion, the cold air of carrying to vegetable compartment 3 is drawn certain heat and is heated up by refrigerating chamber 2 time, so when refrigerating chamber 2 was cooled to 2 ℃, the temperature of vegetable compartment 3 just was cooled to slightly high 3 ℃ of temperature than refrigerating chamber 2.
On the other hand, when the temperature of refrigerating chamber 6 surpassed as design temperature-20 ℃, cooling unit 53 was carried out the F refrigerating modes.That is, make frequency-changeable compressor 54 runnings by switch three-way valve 56 output with 90W under the state of F evaporimeter 51 the supply system cryogens.Under this operating condition, F evaporimeter 51 is cooled to-25 ℃ approximately, so drive in the execution according to the F refrigerating mode under the state of F fan 52 ,-25 ℃ cold air just is transported to ice-making compartment 4 and refrigerating chamber 6 approximately.
Switch chamber 5 for temperature, carry along with the switching of damper and the purposes set about-25 ℃ cold air accordingly, promptly can be adjusted to the corresponding temperature of setting with the user of purposes.
But, in this example, cooling unit 53 as mentioned above, after being finished of R refrigerating mode, (for example 5 minutes) continue the driving to R fan 28 at the appointed time.Like this, owing to the execution of R refrigerating mode is cooled to approximately-18 ℃ R evaporimeter 26 just at about 2~3 ℃ cold air that is supplied to circulation conveying in refrigerating chamber 2 and vegetable compartment 3 under the state that stops the supply system cryogen, so the frost that is attached on the R evaporimeter 26 evaporates at short notice.As a result, the cold air humidity that circulation is carried in refrigerating chamber 2 and vegetable compartment 3 just rises to more than 70% from about 35% at short notice.
The result the who like this cold air of high humility is transported to vegetable compartment 3 is can prevent that the vegetables of depositing in the top open type vegetable compartment 30 from drying out, so can realize the long preservation of vegetables.
On the other hand, be directly to carry-18 ℃ cold air approximately to the light freeze box 31 that puts on vegetable container 30 tops from R evaporimeter 26.At this moment, 36 sealings of light freeze box 31 tegmentums form on lid 36 simultaneously and return the hole 46 of usefulness, so the cold air that is transported in the light freeze box 31 is transported in the vegetable compartment 3 by the hole of covering on 36 46.Like this, the temperature of light freeze box just is cooled to the temperature (about 1~2 ℃) of also low 1~2 ℃ of temperature (about 3 ℃) than vegetable compartment 3.In this occasion, but the hole 46 of lid on 36 double as handle is also shaken hands so needn't form in addition on lid 36 again.
Adopt the structure in this light freeze box 31 that will be transported to from the part of the cold air of R evaporimeter 26 in the vegetable compartment 3, can improve the pressure of R fan 28 suction sides, so compare with the structure that will all be transported to refrigerating chamber 2 from the cold air of R evaporimeter 26, the crushing that can reduce R fan 28 is poor, improves cooling effectiveness.
