The storage is controlled separately in a freezing room 25 of about -18 ° C. and in a temperature environment suitable for storing each of the stored items, and the storage management can be performed in a state in which the storability is optimized.

In addition, the storage chambers are made independent according to the category of the stored items, so that only the doors are opened and closed as necessary, thereby reducing the burden of the user on opening and closing and the rise in temperature due to the opening and closing of the doors.

Next, the refrigerator compartment 21, the vegetable compartment 22, and the bottle storage compartment 28, which are frequently used, are gathered in the upper section 17 which can be viewed from the user's eye level while standing upright. By arranging the freezer compartment 25 with low frequency in the lower section 26, the layout of the storage compartment according to the frequency of use is improved, and the usability is improved. Further, the ice making chamber 26 is provided with an independent drawer-type door 42 and performs an operation of scooping ice from the upper surface of the storage container 43, so that it is convenient even in the lower section 18.

Further, since the refrigerating compartment 21 having a large capacity is provided with the hinged openable door 30, the whole compartment can be seen from the front and the stored articles can be easily taken in and out. Since the vegetable compartment 22 is provided with the drawer-type door 31 at an easy-to-use height position, the storage container 32 can be pulled out toward the user in a standing position and peeped in and out from above. Since the bottle storage room 24 is provided with the drawer-type door 33, the storage containers 34, 35, 36, and 37 can be pulled out and the storage items can be taken in and out at a familiar position even at the upper position, so that the convenience is high.

Here, since the storage container 37 at the bottom of the bottle storage room stores upright storage items such as PET bottled beverages, bottled beers, and milk packs, the position of the center of gravity of the refrigerator body 15 is lowered and the installation stability is reduced.

Since the fingers 1 and 52 can be hung from both upper and lower directions, the user has a high degree of freedom and good operability.

In this embodiment, H2 = 960 mm, but by setting 650 ≦ H2 ≦ 1000 mm, almost the same usability can be realized without raising the elbow. The lower limit was set at 650 mm because a standard Japanese woman (1573 mm tall) was about 400
650mm ≦ H2, taking into account the height of footwear such as slippers, because the lower height that is easily reachable while standing at a distance of 630mm is 630mm (Japanese Standards Association, edited by Illustrated Ergonomics 1999). This is because the drawer-type door 33 can be easily opened and closed in a standing posture without bending the waist.

Next, the user reaches for the items stored in the storage container 37. At this time, since the height H1 from the floor surface to the lower end of the pull-out door 33 is 650 mm, the user is large and tall. Even in the case of stored items (about 300 mm in height), the above-mentioned women can put in and take out frequently used bottles without raising their elbows, so that they can be used without much burden on their arms.

In this embodiment, H1 is set to 650 mm. However, since the height to a portion for holding a large tall large object placed in the container 37 is increased by about 200 mm, the height is set to 60 mm.
By setting 0 ≦ H1 ≦ 800 mm, the height up to the grip portion can be suppressed to a range of approximately 800 mm or more and 1000 mm or less. For this reason, taking into account the height of footwear such as slippers, the user can take in and out relatively heavy storage items without raising the elbow, and the burden on the arm can be reduced. Further, even at the lower limit height of the range of the above H1, it is possible to easily put in and out of the waist without bending down while standing.

As described above, by optimizing the combination of the opening / closing form of the door and the arrangement of the height dimensions, it is possible to provide a refrigerator having a balance of usability as a whole.

In particular, the frequently used bottle storage room 24 can be used independently in an easy-to-use position and the width is smaller than that of the refrigerating room 21. It is preferable because the change also appears. In addition, the storage compartments are made independent according to the category of the storage items, so that only the doors are opened and closed as necessary, and the burden of the user on opening and closing and the rise in temperature due to the opening and closing of the doors are reduced.

Further, a first partition wall 19 and a second partition wall 20 for partitioning the refrigerator main body to the left and right are continuously arranged on the same vertical line, and the handle 50 of the bottle storage room is connected to the refrigerator room and the vegetable room. Is arranged on the same line in the horizontal direction as the partition wall 23 for partitioning the vertical direction, the vertical and horizontal lines can be given a sense of unity in design, and the exterior design of the front of the refrigerator is improved.

Further, the depth D of the refrigerator body 15 is set to 4
00 mm ≦ D ≦ 550 mm, and the width W is 700 mm ≦ W ≦ 9
Since it is set to 00 mm, it is installed within the depth range of a cupboard (450 mm in depth) or a system kitchen (600 mm in depth) and does not jump out to the front, so that the interior of the kitchen is enhanced and does not hinder the movement of people.

Further, since the depth is not deeper than necessary, it is easy to put in and take out the stored items in each storage room, and by using the wide type, even if the bottle storage room 24 is separated and independent, the frontage of the other room is not narrowed and it can be used. Cheap. Bottle storage room 24 is refrigerated room 2
Independently of the storage space of the refrigerator compartment 21, the space of the storage items conventionally stored in the door shelf of the refrigerator compartment 21 can be effectively utilized as the storage space of the refrigerator compartment 21, and there is no problem in the capacity of the refrigerator compartment. further,
