Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To decrease the number of parts by drawing out the mechanical section of a refrigeration cycle installed on a slide base from the machine room thereby simplifying the securing. SOLUTION: A machine room 4 having a slide base installed with the mechanical section of a refrigeration cycle is disposed at a section of a refrigerator body 1. When the slide base is contained in the machine room 4, a section member having U-shaped cross-section is directed upward while abutting against the slide base at one end piece thereof. The section member is secured to the frame of the machine room by means of screws 13 and the other end piece serves as a handle 12. Drawing operation is facilitated when the forward end of the end piece constituting the handle 12 is bent so that a finger can be hooked or an elongated hole for inserting a finger is made.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention provides a machine room in a part of a refrigerator main body, such as a cold table type refrigerator,
The present invention relates to a refrigerator in which a refrigerator can be pulled out via a slide base in a machine room.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A cold table type refrigerator is shown in FIGS. That is, FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing the entirety, in which the upper surface is a table 2 for cooking, the lower right side is a refrigerator compartment 3 and the left side is a machine room 4.

[0003] A glazing window 6 for taking in outside air is opened in a front cover 5 of the machine room 4, and an exhaust window 7 of a radiating fan is opened on a side surface. When the front cover 5 of the machine room 4 is removed as shown in FIG. 4, the condenser 8 can be seen, and a compressor, a radiating fan and the like are installed behind the condenser 8.

As shown in FIG. 5, in a machine room 4, a slide base 9 is mounted on a frame 10 so as to be able to be pulled out.
Is fixed by a stopper 11 having a key-shaped cross section so as not to come out. Reference numeral 12 denotes a handle for pulling out the slide base.

When the slide base 9 is pulled out for maintenance and inspection of the machine room 4, the screw 13 of the stopper 11 is removed and the grip 12 is pulled out, as shown in FIG. Is pulled out of the refrigerator main body 1 so that the refrigerator can be easily inspected.

[0006]

In the above-mentioned prior art, when the slide base is pulled out from the machine room, the screw is removed and the handle is pulled out. However, it is desired to reduce the number of parts and reduce the cost. .

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, the present invention facilitates pulling out of a refrigerator installed in a machine room via a slide base, and fixes and draws out the slide base on which the refrigerator is directly mounted. It is intended to reduce the number of parts for cost reduction.

[0008]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention relates to a refrigerator machine room in which a refrigerator is drawably installed in a machine room via a slide base.
A structure in which a member is extended along the slide surface from the front end of the slide base, the tip of the member is raised to form a handle, and the extended member is provided with means for preventing the slide base from being pulled out. Then, as the handle, one piece is fixed to the front end of the slide base with the U-shaped cross section facing upward, and the other piece is used as the handle, and as means for preventing the slide base from being pulled out, Screw or pin plug.

[0009] With this configuration, a single component serves as both fixing and pulling-out of the slide base, thereby enabling a reduction in the number of components, and by simply tightening and loosening screws or inserting and removing pins and plugs. The slide base can be fixed and pulled out.

[0010]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, an embodiment according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 shows a cover 5 at the front of the machine room 4 (see FIG. 3) for easy understanding.
Has been removed. A machine room is provided on the left side of the refrigerator body 1. The frame 1 in this machine room 4
A slide base 9 is mounted on the base plate 0, and a metal bracket 15 having a U-shaped cross section that also serves as a stopper 11 and a handle 12 is fixed to the front end of the slide base 9 with a screw or the like.

A through hole 16 is formed in the middle of the bracket 15, and the slide base 9 is stored in the machine room 4.
A screw hole 17 is provided in the frame 10 at a position corresponding to the through hole 16, and the slide base is fixed by the screw 13. In addition, 2 is a table, 3 is a refrigerator, and 8 is a condenser.

During normal operation, the slide base is fixed as described above. However, when performing maintenance / inspection of the refrigerator, the screw 13 is removed to release the fixed state, and the fingertip is attached to the handle 12 of the bracket 15. When the slide base 9 is pulled out, the compressor, the condenser and the like installed on the slide base 9 are drawn out together, so that maintenance and inspection can be easily performed.

When maintenance and inspection are completed, the slide base 9
Into the machine room 4 and tighten the screw 13 to fix it.

In the above embodiment, the slide base 9 is fixed with the screw 13, but a common through hole 18 is formed in the metal fitting 15 and the frame 10, and a pin or plug 19 is fitted into this through hole. Alternatively, instead of the bracket 15 having a U-shaped cross section fixed to the front end of the slide base 9,
A steel strip 20 is extended from the bottom of the front end of the slide base to form a metal fitting 15 ', and its end is raised and a handle 12' is attached to that part.
Can also be provided.

[0015]

As described above, according to the present invention,
The slide base on which the refrigerator is installed can be pulled out or fixed simply by tightening and loosening the screws and inserting and removing the pins or plugs.In addition, the handle for fixing the slide base and the handle for pulling it out are combined into one metal fitting. As a result, the number of parts could be reduced.
