以下、従来技術の課題について図面を用いて説明する。   Hereinafter, problems of the prior art will be described with reference to the drawings.

図8は従来の冷蔵庫における冷蔵室の正面図である。この冷蔵庫本体51は、図には示していないが冷蔵室52の他に、この冷蔵室52の下方に冷凍室及び野菜室を有している。冷蔵室52の背部には冷気通路形成部材ともなる背面板53が配されており、この背面板53の裏面側には、図示しない冷却器側に接続された冷気受部54とこの冷気受部54に連なり、上方に位置して三つ又に分岐する冷気通路55、56、57を有している。これらの冷気通路55、56、57内で下方から上方へと冷気が送られる。   FIG. 8 is a front view of a refrigerator compartment in a conventional refrigerator. Although not shown in the drawing, the refrigerator main body 51 has a freezer compartment and a vegetable compartment below the refrigerator compartment 52 in addition to the refrigerator compartment 52. A back plate 53 serving as a cool air passage forming member is disposed at the back of the refrigerator compartment 52. On the back side of the back plate 53, a cool air receiving portion 54 connected to a cooler (not shown) and the cold air receiving portion are provided. 54, and has cold air passages 55, 56, and 57 that are located above and branch into three. In these cold air passages 55, 56, 57, cold air is sent from below to above.

この冷気通路のうち、左右に設けられる冷気通路55、56は冷蔵室52の側壁52a側に冷気を吹き出す冷気吹出口58、59を上下に複数有している。また、後述するように、冷気通路55、56には庫内背面に沿って冷気を吹き出す開口部60、61も設けられている。   Among the cold air passages, the cold air passages 55, 56 provided on the left and right sides have a plurality of cold air outlets 58, 59 for blowing cold air to the side wall 52 a side of the refrigerator compartment 52. In addition, as will be described later, the cold air passages 55 and 56 are also provided with openings 60 and 61 for blowing out the cold air along the back of the interior.

また、中央の冷気通路57には冷蔵室52内の冷気を循環させるために庫内循環ファン62が備えられている。すなわち、冷蔵室52内の冷気を冷気吸込口63より吸い込み、庫内冷気循環ファン62によって、冷気吸込口63より吸込まれた冷気と、図示しない冷却器から送られる冷気とを混合させ上方へと送り、冷蔵室52の天井に設けられた庫内灯カバー64部近傍の冷気吹出口65より冷蔵室52に冷気を吹き出している。   The central cold air passage 57 is provided with an internal circulation fan 62 for circulating the cold air in the refrigerator compartment 52. That is, the cool air in the refrigerating chamber 52 is sucked from the cool air suction port 63, and the cool air sucked from the cool air suction port 63 and the cool air sent from the cooler (not shown) are mixed upward by the cool air circulation fan 62. The cool air is blown out to the refrigerating room 52 from the cold air outlet 65 near the interior lamp cover 64 provided on the ceiling of the refrigerating room 52.

次に、図9及び図10を用いて冷気吹出口58、59近傍における冷気の流れの詳細を説明する。図9は図8の水平断面図であり、図8のC−C断面図である。図10は、図9のD付近の拡大図である。冷気吹出口58、59から吹き出された冷気は矢印Aのように冷蔵室扉52b側に向けて吹き出される。これと同時に、途中から分かれた冷気が開口部60、61によってより矢印Bのように背面板53に沿って吹き出され、冷蔵室52内を循環する冷気と混ざり合った状態で中央付近でぶつかり合い、それが冷蔵室52の前方へ向かう矢印Cのような気流となり、冷蔵室内の空気を攪拌している。   Next, details of the flow of cold air in the vicinity of the cold air outlets 58 and 59 will be described with reference to FIGS. 9 and 10. 9 is a horizontal sectional view of FIG. 8 and a CC sectional view of FIG. FIG. 10 is an enlarged view around D in FIG. The cold air blown out from the cold air outlets 58 and 59 is blown out toward the refrigerator compartment door 52b as shown by an arrow A. At the same time, the cold air divided from the middle is blown out along the back plate 53 as indicated by the arrow B through the openings 60 and 61 and collides with the cold air circulating in the refrigerator compartment 52 in the vicinity of the center. It becomes an air current as indicated by an arrow C toward the front of the refrigerator compartment 52, and the air in the refrigerator compartment is agitated.

このような冷気の流れにおいて、矢印Aの冷気は棚板66上の収納食品を冷却し、矢印Bの冷気は冷気通路形成部材53の表面に付着した水分(水滴)を吸湿し両側より吹出された冷気Bは中央でぶつかり合い、今度は矢印Cの如く冷蔵室中央に向かい収納食品を冷却する。また、冷気吹出口58、59、開口部60、61は冷蔵室内に数枚設けられた棚板66が作る空間67にそれぞれ設けられている。   In such a flow of cold air, the cold air of arrow A cools the food stored on the shelf board 66, and the cold air of arrow B absorbs moisture (water droplets) adhering to the surface of the cold air passage forming member 53 and is blown out from both sides. The cold air B collides with the center, and this time, as indicated by the arrow C, the stored food is cooled toward the center of the refrigerator compartment. Further, the cold air outlets 58 and 59 and the openings 60 and 61 are respectively provided in a space 67 formed by a shelf board 66 provided in the refrigerator compartment.

したがって、棚板66によって区分された冷蔵庫52に対しそれぞれ冷気吹出口58、59、開口部60、61が設けられているため、冷気吹出口より吹出される冷気量が小さくなり冷気吹出口58、59、開口部60、61より遠くにある扉収納ポケット部68までには到達しにくいという課題があった。   Accordingly, since the cold air outlets 58 and 59 and the openings 60 and 61 are provided for the refrigerator 52 divided by the shelf plate 66, the amount of cold air blown out from the cold air outlet becomes small, and the cold air outlet 58 and 59, there is a problem that it is difficult to reach the door storage pocket 68 that is farther from the openings 60 and 61.

そこで、この種の冷蔵庫においては、冷蔵室52内に図8に示すように庫内冷気循環ファン62を設け、冷蔵室52内の空気を攪拌することによって、扉収納ポケット部68を含め、冷蔵室52内の温度を所望の温度にしていた。   Therefore, in this type of refrigerator, a refrigerator air circulation fan 62 is provided in the refrigerator compartment 52 as shown in FIG. 8 and the air in the refrigerator compartment 52 is agitated so that the refrigerator including the door storage pocket portion 68 is refrigerated. The temperature in the chamber 52 was set to a desired temperature.

しかし、冷蔵室52内を冷却するのに両側壁近くから冷蔵室側壁52aに向けて吹き出す風路構成(冷気吹出口58、59)、及び冷気通路形成部材53に沿うように各段に吹き出す風路構成(開口部60、61)を採用しているため、冷気通路55、56から吹き出される冷気が分散されてしまい、扉収納ポケット部68に到達する気流に至らず、他の部分に比較して、扉収納ポケット部68の温度が高くなりやすいという課題があった。   However, in order to cool the inside of the refrigerating chamber 52, the air passage configuration (cold air outlets 58 and 59) that blows out from near both side walls toward the refrigerating chamber side wall 52 a and the air that blows out to each stage along the cold air passage forming member 53. Since the passage configuration (opening portions 60 and 61) is adopted, the cold air blown out from the cold air passages 55 and 56 is dispersed, so that the airflow reaching the door storage pocket portion 68 is not reached and compared with other portions. And the subject that the temperature of the door storage pocket part 68 becomes high easily occurred.

特に、1つの冷却器と1つの冷気強制循環ファンをもって冷凍室及び冷蔵室を冷却するようにした冷蔵庫にあってはこの問題が生じやすい。このような構成を有する冷蔵庫においては、冷却器を経た全ての冷気のうち、冷蔵室側に送られる冷気量は2〜3割となる。この少ない冷気量を、図8乃至図10のように複数の冷気吹出口に分散させてしまうと、冷気が冷蔵室扉収納ポケット部68まで到達しづらくなってしまう。   This problem is likely to occur particularly in a refrigerator that cools the freezer compartment and the refrigerator compartment with one cooler and one cold air forced circulation fan. In the refrigerator having such a configuration, the amount of cold air sent to the refrigerating room side is 20-30% among all the cold air having passed through the cooler. If this small amount of cold air is distributed to a plurality of cold air outlets as shown in FIGS. 8 to 10, it becomes difficult for the cold air to reach the refrigerator compartment door storage pocket 68.

また、冷蔵食品を載置する棚板66は、冷蔵室52の内面形状に合せた形状とするのが普通であるが、背面の冷気通路及び冷気吹出口の形状、構造を複雑化すると、棚板66の後端部も背面形状に合わせる必要があり、このため棚板66の収納効率の悪化を招く場合があった。   In addition, the shelf plate 66 on which the refrigerated food is placed is usually shaped to match the inner surface shape of the refrigerated chamber 52. However, if the shape and structure of the cold air passage and the cold air outlet are complicated, The rear end portion of the plate 66 also needs to be matched with the back surface shape, and thus the storage efficiency of the shelf plate 66 may be deteriorated.

さらには、冷気吹出口の近傍の構造が、図8に示すように正面から見える位置に設けられていたので、冷蔵室内の意匠性に影響を及ぼし、また、清掃時に邪魔になってしまう場合があった。   Furthermore, since the structure in the vicinity of the cold air outlet is provided at a position where it can be seen from the front as shown in FIG. 8, it affects the design of the refrigerated room and may become an obstacle during cleaning. there were.

本発明は上記課題に鑑みてなされたものであり、扉収納ポケット部内の収納物を冷却でき、収納性、意匠性にも優れた冷蔵庫を提供することを目的とする。   This invention is made | formed in view of the said subject, and it aims at providing the refrigerator which can cool the stored item in a door storage pocket part, and was excellent also in storage property and design property.

上記目的を達成するために、本発明は、冷蔵室の背壁の幅中央部に冷蔵室側に突設するよう設けられたランプカバーと、このランプカバーの両側に前記ランプカバーと同等の高さに突設して設けられた冷気通路と、この冷気通路の側縁に設けられ前記ランプカバー側に向けて冷気を吹き出す冷気吹出口とを備えた。   In order to achieve the above-described object, the present invention provides a lamp cover provided at the center of the width of the back wall of the refrigerating room so as to project from the refrigerating room side, And a cold air outlet provided on the side edge of the cold air passage and for blowing out the cold air toward the lamp cover side.

また、冷蔵室の幅中央部で前記冷気吹出口からの冷気の流れの向きを前記冷蔵室の前面へ向かう流れの向きに変えて、前記冷蔵室の前面を覆う冷蔵室扉に設けられた扉ポケット収納部を冷却する構成とした。   In addition, the door provided in the refrigerator compartment door that covers the front of the refrigerator compartment by changing the direction of the cold air flow from the cold outlet to the front of the refrigerator compartment at the center of the width of the refrigerator compartment. It was set as the structure which cools a pocket storage part.

また、前記冷蔵室内にこの冷蔵室内を複数の空間に区画する棚板を備え、前記冷気吹出口は前記ランプカバーを挟んで1対で前記複数の空間毎に設けられる構成とした。   In addition, a shelf plate that divides the refrigeration chamber into a plurality of spaces is provided in the refrigeration chamber, and the cold air outlets are provided in pairs for each of the plurality of spaces across the lamp cover.

また、前記冷気吹出口に対向するランプカバー表面を円弧状面又は傾斜面とし、前記冷気吹出口と対向した前記円弧状面又は前記傾斜面によって前記ランプカバー前面で冷気を合流させ扉ポケット収納部側に冷気を誘導するように構成した。   Further, the lamp cover surface facing the cold air outlet has an arcuate surface or an inclined surface, and the cold air is merged on the front surface of the lamp cover by the arcuate surface or the inclined surface opposed to the cold air outlet. It was configured to induce cold to the side.

また、前記冷気吹出口に、前記ランプカバーに向けて冷気を吹き出す傾斜面を設けた。   Moreover, the inclined surface which blows off cool air toward the said lamp cover was provided in the said cool air blower outlet.

また、前記棚板の後端を直線状とし、その棚板の後端を前記冷気通路及び前記ランプカバーに当接若しくは近接させ設置させた。   Further, the rear end of the shelf plate is linear, and the rear end of the shelf plate is placed in contact with or close to the cold air passage and the lamp cover.

本発明によれば、扉収納ポケット部内の収納物を冷却でき、収納性、意匠性にも優れた冷蔵庫を提供するができる。   ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, the stored item in a door storage pocket part can be cooled, and the refrigerator excellent in the storage property and the designability can be provided.

以下、図面を用いて本発明の冷蔵庫の実施形態を説明する。図1は本発明の一実施形態を示す冷蔵庫の正面図で、扉を省略して示した図であり、図2は本実施例の冷蔵庫を側面縦断面図で、図1のY−Y断面相当図である。   Hereinafter, embodiments of the refrigerator of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a front view of a refrigerator showing an embodiment of the present invention, and is a view in which a door is omitted. FIG. 2 is a side longitudinal sectional view of the refrigerator of the present embodiment, and a YY cross section of FIG. It is an equivalent figure.

本実施例の冷蔵庫本体1は、箱体内部に上から順に冷蔵室2、野菜室3、冷凍室4を有している。冷蔵室2の前面開口部には回転式の冷蔵室扉5を、野菜室3の前面開口部には引出し式の野菜室扉6を、冷凍室4の前面開口部には引出し式の冷凍室扉8をそれぞれ備えている。野菜室3及び冷凍室4内には、それぞれ野菜室扉6、冷凍室扉8の引き出しに伴なって室外に引き出される野菜容器7、冷凍室容器9が配置されている。   The refrigerator main body 1 of the present embodiment has a refrigerator compartment 2, a vegetable compartment 3, and a freezer compartment 4 in order from the top inside the box. A rotary refrigerator door 5 is provided at the front opening of the refrigerator compartment 2, a drawer-type vegetable compartment door 6 is provided at the front opening of the vegetable compartment 3, and a drawer-type freezer compartment is provided at the front opening of the freezer compartment 4. Each door 8 is provided. In the vegetable compartment 3 and the freezer compartment 4, a vegetable container 7 and a freezer compartment 9 that are drawn out with the drawer of the vegetable compartment door 6 and the freezer compartment door 8 are arranged.

冷蔵室2内には複数枚の棚板10が配置されており、この棚板10は合成樹脂、又はガラス製の板部材により構成され、冷蔵室2内を複数の空間2a、2b、2cに区画している。冷蔵室2内に食品を収納する際には、この棚板10上に食品が載置されることによって収納される。   A plurality of shelf boards 10 are arranged in the refrigerator compartment 2, and the shelf boards 10 are made of synthetic resin or glass plate members, and the interior of the refrigerator compartment 2 is divided into a plurality of spaces 2a, 2b, 2c. It is partitioned. When food is stored in the refrigerator compartment 2, the food is stored by being placed on the shelf board 10.

冷凍室4の背部には冷却器11が設置されており、冷蔵庫本体1の背面下部に配置される機械室内の圧縮機12、及び図示しない凝縮器、キャピラリーチューブとともに冷凍サイクルを構成している。冷却器11の下部には除霜用ヒータ13が設けられ、冷却器11に着霜した霜を強制的に融解している。冷却器11の上方には冷気循環ファン14が配設され、冷却器11で冷却された冷気を冷凍室4及び冷蔵室2、野菜室3に強制的に送風し、これら各室を冷却した後の冷気を冷却器11の下部から吸い込んでおり、冷気循環ファン14によってこのような冷気循環が強制される。   A cooler 11 is installed on the back of the freezer compartment 4, and constitutes a refrigerating cycle together with a compressor 12 in the machine room disposed at the lower back of the refrigerator body 1, a condenser and a capillary tube (not shown). A defrosting heater 13 is provided below the cooler 11 to forcibly melt the frost that has formed on the cooler 11. A cool air circulation fan 14 is disposed above the cooler 11, and the cool air cooled by the cooler 11 is forcibly blown to the freezer compartment 4, the refrigerator compartment 2, and the vegetable compartment 3, and after cooling these chambers. The cool air is sucked in from the lower part of the cooler 11, and such cool air circulation is forced by the cool air circulation fan 14.

なお、冷気循環用ファン14によって吸い込まれる野菜室冷却用冷気は、冷蔵室2を冷却した冷気が野菜室3に回り、それが野菜室3冷却後、野菜室3の設けられた戻り口15から戻りダクト16を経由し、冷却器11の下方位置に戻される。   The cold air for cooling the vegetable room sucked in by the fan 14 for circulating cold air flows from the return port 15 provided in the vegetable room 3 after the cold air that has cooled the refrigerator room 2 goes to the vegetable room 3 and cools the vegetable room 3. It returns to the lower position of the cooler 11 via the return duct 16.

このように本実施例の冷蔵庫は、1つの冷却器11によって、冷蔵温度帯の貯蔵室である冷蔵室2及び野菜室3と、冷凍温度帯の貯蔵室4を冷却しており、冷気循環ファン14によって、これらの冷気の流れを起こしている。   Thus, the refrigerator of the present embodiment cools the refrigerator compartment 2 and the vegetable compartment 3, which are storage compartments in the refrigeration temperature zone, and the storage compartment 4 in the refrigeration temperature zone, by one cooler 11, and the cold air circulation fan 14 causes these cold air flows.

冷蔵室2へ送られる冷気は、冷却器11で冷却された後、上述のように冷気循環用ファン14によって、ダンパー18を通過して冷蔵室側の冷気通路17へと送られる。この冷気通路17はダンパー18の下流でYの字状に分岐し、冷蔵室2の背壁両側をほぼ全高にわたって設けられ、冷蔵室2の上方位置まで至る。   The cool air sent to the refrigerator compartment 2 is cooled by the cooler 11 and then sent to the cool air passage 17 on the refrigerator compartment side through the damper 18 by the cool air circulation fan 14 as described above. The cold air passage 17 branches in a Y shape downstream of the damper 18 and is provided on both sides of the back wall of the refrigerating chamber 2 over almost the entire height to reach a position above the refrigerating chamber 2.

また、左右に設けられた冷気通路17には、冷蔵室2の幅方向中央部に向かって冷気を吹き出す冷気吹出口20が設けられており、棚板10によって仕切られた複数の空間2a、2b、2cに対して冷気を供給している。なお、この詳細については後述する。   Further, the cold air passages 17 provided on the left and right are provided with cold air outlets 20 for blowing the cold air toward the central portion in the width direction of the refrigerator compartment 2, and a plurality of spaces 2 a and 2 b partitioned by the shelf 10. Cold air is supplied to 2c. Details of this will be described later.

図3は、本実施例の冷蔵庫の水平断面図であり、図1のA−A断面図である。図に示すように、冷気通路17は冷蔵室2の断熱背壁2dより冷蔵室2の中央側に突して設けられ、両冷気通路17の間に位置するランプカバー19と奥行位置をほぼ合わせて配設されている。このランプカバー19も冷蔵室2のほぼ全高にわたって設けられており、このランプカバー19内には冷蔵室2の扉を開けたとき、冷蔵室2内の収納食品を確認することができる明るさに照らすための庫内灯21が、1又は2個配設されている。このため、ランプカバー19は、通常、合成樹脂製で光を透過しやすい材質が用いられる。   FIG. 3 is a horizontal cross-sectional view of the refrigerator of the present embodiment, and is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA of FIG. As shown in the figure, the cool air passage 17 is provided so as to protrude from the heat insulating back wall 2d of the refrigerating chamber 2 toward the center side of the refrigerating chamber 2, and the lamp cover 19 located between the both cool air passages 17 is substantially aligned with the depth position. Arranged. The lamp cover 19 is also provided over almost the entire height of the refrigerator compartment 2, and the lamp cover 19 is bright enough to confirm the food stored in the refrigerator compartment 2 when the door of the refrigerator compartment 2 is opened. One or two interior lamps 21 for illuminating are arranged. For this reason, the lamp cover 19 is usually made of a synthetic resin material that easily transmits light.

また、このランプカバー19の冷蔵室2側への突出高さは、冷気通路17を構成する背壁の突出高さとほぼ合わせるようにしてある。したがって、棚板10の後端を直線状とすると、該後端は、ランプカバー19及び冷気通路17の近接位置まで至るか、あるいは接触する。すなわち、棚板10の後端形状を、冷気通路17及びランプカバー19の突出高さに合わせて形成する必要がないので、空間2a、2b、2cは、棚板10により区画された空間と言ってもよく、上記構成によって収納効率も向上する。   Further, the protruding height of the lamp cover 19 toward the refrigerator compartment 2 is made to substantially match the protruding height of the back wall constituting the cool air passage 17. Therefore, when the rear end of the shelf board 10 is linear, the rear end reaches or comes into contact with the proximity of the lamp cover 19 and the cold air passage 17. That is, since it is not necessary to form the rear end shape of the shelf board 10 in accordance with the protruding heights of the cold air passage 17 and the lamp cover 19, the spaces 2a, 2b, and 2c are said to be spaces partitioned by the shelf board 10. The storage efficiency is also improved by the above configuration.

このような背面構成としたことによって、冷気吹出口20は、冷気通路17の側端でランプカバー19側に向けて冷気を吹き出すように設けられている。この冷気吹出口20は図1にも示す如く、棚板10が作る空間2a、2b、2cに対して一対(20aと20d、20bと20e、20cと20f)が設けられている。そして、これらの一対の冷気吹出口(20a−20d)(20b−20e)(20c−20f)の高さ位置を一致させて配置している。   By adopting such a back configuration, the cold air outlet 20 is provided so as to blow out cold air toward the lamp cover 19 at the side end of the cold air passage 17. As shown in FIG. 1, the cold air outlet 20 is provided with a pair (20a and 20d, 20b and 20e, 20c and 20f) with respect to the spaces 2a, 2b and 2c formed by the shelf board 10. Then, the height positions of the pair of cold air outlets (20a-20d) (20b-20e) (20c-20f) are arranged to coincide with each other.

このように冷気吹出口20a乃至20fを設けることによって、冷気吹出口20より吹き出された冷気はランプカバー19に沿って流れ、ランプカバー19に水滴等があればこれを吸湿しつつ、ランプカバー19の幅方向中央位置で合流する。この合流した冷気は、冷蔵室2の前側(冷蔵室扉5側)に向かって流れる。このように冷蔵室2内の冷気の流れを発生させることにより冷蔵室2(2a、2b、2c)を適温に冷却可能としている。   By providing the cold air outlets 20a to 20f as described above, the cold air blown from the cold air outlet 20 flows along the lamp cover 19, and if there are water droplets or the like in the lamp cover 19, the lamp cover 19 absorbs moisture. Merge at the center of the width direction. The merged cold air flows toward the front side of the refrigerator compartment 2 (the refrigerator compartment door 5 side). Thus, by generating the flow of cold air in the refrigerator compartment 2, the refrigerator compartment 2 (2a, 2b, 2c) can be cooled to an appropriate temperature.

次に、図3を用いてランプカバー19の中央で合流した冷気が冷蔵室2の前側、すなわち扉ポケット側、に向かう気流となって扉ポケット22を冷却する状態について、図3を用いて説明する。   Next, with reference to FIG. 3, a state in which the cold air merged at the center of the lamp cover 19 becomes an air flow toward the front side of the refrigerator compartment 2, that is, the door pocket side, and cools the door pocket 22 will be described with reference to FIG. 3. To do.

冷蔵室2内を冷却する際には、ダンパー18(図1、図2に図示)が開状態となり、冷却器11によって冷却された冷気が冷気循環用ファン14(図1、図2に図示)によって、冷気通路17内に送られる。冷気通路17に送られた冷気は冷気吹出口20(例えば20a、20d)によって両冷気通路17に挟まれた位置に設置されるランプカバー19の側端にぶつかるよう吹き出される。   When the inside of the refrigerator compartment 2 is cooled, the damper 18 (shown in FIGS. 1 and 2) is opened, and the cool air cooled by the cooler 11 is cooled by the cool air circulation fan 14 (shown in FIGS. 1 and 2). Is sent into the cold air passage 17. The cold air sent to the cold air passage 17 is blown out by the cold air outlet 20 (for example, 20a, 20d) so as to collide with a side end of the lamp cover 19 installed at a position sandwiched between the both cold air passages 17.

ここで重要なことは、空間2aに対し、2個所の冷気吹出口20a、20dから吹き出された冷気は、ランプカバー19の斜面がガイドとなることによって、冷蔵室2の中央側に向く流れに変えられることである。   What is important here is that the cold air blown out from the two cold air outlets 20a and 20d with respect to the space 2a flows toward the center of the refrigerator compartment 2 by the slope of the lamp cover 19 serving as a guide. It can be changed.

上記のような流れを生成するために、正面から使用者には見えにくいところである冷気通路17の側壁に冷気吹出口20を設け、かつ、冷気をランプカバー19の両冷気通路17側の壁面(ここでは傾斜面19a)に向けて吹き出し、冷気通路17側の壁面19aをガイド傾斜面として利用している。本実施例では、このような冷気吹出し構造によって、冷蔵室扉5側に向かう冷気の流れを作りあげている。換言すれば、両冷気通路17の間に位置するランプカバー19を、その両側の壁面が傾斜するように設け、冷気吹出口20と対向する位置に傾斜面19aを配設させた構成としたものである。   In order to generate the flow as described above, a cold air outlet 20 is provided on the side wall of the cold air passage 17 that is difficult to be seen from the front by the user, and the cold air is supplied to the wall surfaces of the lamp covers 19 on both cold air passages 17 side ( Here, the air is blown toward the inclined surface 19a), and the wall surface 19a on the cold air passage 17 side is used as the guide inclined surface. In the present embodiment, such a cool air blowing structure creates a flow of cool air toward the refrigerator compartment door 5 side. In other words, the lamp cover 19 located between the cold air passages 17 is provided such that the wall surfaces on both sides thereof are inclined, and the inclined surface 19a is disposed at a position facing the cold air outlet 20. It is.

したがって、このガイド傾斜面19aによって、両冷気通路17から内側に吹き出された冷気流は、単純な左右の流れから、前方側に向かう成分を有する冷気流に変換される。この変換された冷気同士が、ランプカバー19の幅方向中央位置の前方で合流(衝突)するに至る。   Therefore, the cold air flow blown inward from the both cold air passages 17 by the guide inclined surface 19a is converted from a simple left and right flow into a cold air flow having a component toward the front side. The converted cold air joins (collises) in front of the center position in the width direction of the lamp cover 19.

合流(衝突)した冷気は、ガイド傾斜面19aによって前方側に向くよう傾向づけられていることよって、この位置で衝突した勢いによって、冷蔵室扉5側に向く気流に変換されるものである。このように冷蔵室扉5側に向く流れに変換された冷気は、図3の矢印に示したように、空間2aはもちろんのこと、扉ポケット部22に収納された収納物23を冷却可能としている。   The cold air that has merged (collised) is inclined to be directed forward by the guide inclined surface 19a, and thus is converted into an airflow directed toward the refrigerator compartment door 5 by the momentum of collision at this position. As shown by the arrow in FIG. 3, the cold air thus converted into the flow toward the refrigerator compartment door 5 side can cool not only the space 2 a but also the stored items 23 stored in the door pocket portion 22. Yes.

このように、扉ポケット22の上段は冷気吹出口(20a−20d)より吹き出された冷気により、中段は(20b−20e)より吹き出された冷気により、また、下段は冷気吹出口(20c−20f)より吹き出された冷気により、それぞれ冷却されるため、扉ポケット22は上段から下段まで十分に冷却される。これとともに、冷蔵室2内も図3の冷気の流れを示す矢印のように冷気吹出口より吹き出された冷気(ランプカバー中央でぶつかり扉ポケット22側に向かう気流)により中央から冷却されるものである。さらには、冷気の衝突によって反発した冷気の成分が、図3に示す矢印のように二つの循環経路によって空間2a内を循環しているため、空間2a内も十分に冷却される。   Thus, the upper stage of the door pocket 22 is due to the cold air blown from the cold air outlet (20a-20d), the middle stage is due to the cold air blown from (20b-20e), and the lower stage is the cold air outlet (20c-20f). ), The door pocket 22 is sufficiently cooled from the upper stage to the lower stage. At the same time, the inside of the refrigerator compartment 2 is cooled from the center by the cold air blown from the cold air outlet as shown by the arrows indicating the flow of the cold air in FIG. is there. Furthermore, since the component of the cold air repelled by the cold air circulates in the space 2a through the two circulation paths as shown by the arrows in FIG. 3, the space 2a is also sufficiently cooled.

図4は、図3とは異なる形態を示す例であり、ランプカバー19の形状を円弧状とした点を除いて、他は図3の実施形態と同じである。本例では、図3に示したランプカバー19のガイド傾斜面19aを円弧状としており、冷気吹出口20a、20dより吹き出される冷気はランプカバー19の弧状にあたり、前方側に向かう冷気流となり円弧に沿って流れ、ランプカバー19のほぼ中央でぶつかり冷蔵室2(空間2a)前方側に向く。   FIG. 4 is an example showing a form different from that in FIG. 3, and is the same as the embodiment in FIG. 3 except that the lamp cover 19 has an arc shape. In this example, the guide inclined surface 19a of the lamp cover 19 shown in FIG. 3 has an arc shape, and the cold air blown out from the cold air outlets 20a and 20d hits the arc shape of the lamp cover 19 and becomes a cold air flow toward the front side. And collide with the lamp cover 19 almost at the center, and face the front side of the refrigerator compartment 2 (space 2a).

前方側に向かう冷気は、図4に示す如く冷蔵室2(空間2a)内を中央から空間2a全体を冷却しつつ、扉ポケット22内の収納物を冷却する。なお、冷蔵室2、扉ポケット22を冷却し終えた冷気は図には示してないが野菜室3に供給され、先の実施例と同様に、冷却器11へと戻される。   As shown in FIG. 4, the cool air toward the front side cools the contents stored in the door pocket 22 while cooling the entire space 2 a from the center in the refrigerator compartment 2 (space 2 a). In addition, although not shown in the drawing, the cold air that has finished cooling the refrigerator compartment 2 and the door pocket 22 is supplied to the vegetable compartment 3 and returned to the cooler 11 as in the previous embodiment.

図5、図6に示す例は、ランプカバー19を筒状となし、幅方向寸法を狭くする一方、冷気通路17の冷気吹出口20に、冷気吹出し方向に向かって前方側に傾斜させた傾斜面20gを設けて、冷気吹出方向を冷蔵室2の前方側へとしたものである。図5は冷蔵室2の前面図であり、図6は図5のB−B断面図である。   In the example shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the lamp cover 19 has a cylindrical shape and the width direction dimension is narrowed, while the cold air outlet 20 of the cold air passage 17 is inclined to the front side in the cold air blowing direction. A surface 20 g is provided so that the cold air blowing direction is directed to the front side of the refrigerator compartment 2. 5 is a front view of the refrigerator compartment 2, and FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line BB of FIG.

すなわち、図5、図6に示した例は、冷気吹出口20とランプカバー19との距離Wを大きくとっており、このW寸法が大きくなると冷気吹出口20(20a、20d)より出た冷気がランプカバー19によりガイドされにくくなる。そこで、これを補うのが冷気吹出口20に設けた傾斜面20gである。冷気の吹出し段階で、冷気吹出口20a、20dによって、ある程度前方側に傾斜づけられて吹き出された冷気は、円筒状ランプカバー19にあたり、その形状によって誘導され、上述の例と同様に、冷蔵室扉5側に向けられた冷気を生じ、空間2aを冷却しながら扉ポケット22内の収納物23を冷却する。   That is, in the examples shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the distance W between the cold air outlet 20 and the lamp cover 19 is large, and the cold air that has come out of the cold air outlet 20 (20a, 20d) increases as the W dimension increases. Is less likely to be guided by the lamp cover 19. Therefore, the inclined surface 20g provided in the cold air outlet 20 compensates for this. In the cold air blowing out stage, the cold air blown out by being inclined to the front side to some extent by the cold air outlets 20a, 20d hits the cylindrical lamp cover 19 and is guided by its shape, and in the same manner as in the above-described example, Cold air directed toward the door 5 is generated, and the stored item 23 in the door pocket 22 is cooled while cooling the space 2a.

したがって、冷蔵室2内は勿論扉ポケット22内の収納物23ともに十分に冷却される。この実施形態は、冷気吹出口20(20a、20d)にも冷気の流れの方向づけする傾斜面20gを設けたことを特徴とするものであり、この傾斜面20gは冷気通路17に内面に断熱シートを使用した際の、この断熱シートを合わせた通路壁の板厚内の傾斜面でもガイドとして機能する。   Therefore, not only the refrigerator compartment 2 but also the stored items 23 in the door pocket 22 are sufficiently cooled. In this embodiment, the cold air outlet 20 (20a, 20d) is also provided with an inclined surface 20g for directing the flow of the cold air, and the inclined surface 20g is provided on the inner surface of the cold air passage 17 with a heat insulating sheet. The inclined surface within the plate thickness of the passage wall combined with this heat insulating sheet also functions as a guide.

なお、この実施例では、W寸法を大きく取っているため、棚板10上に食品が多数載置された場合であっても、冷蔵庫全体の冷気流れをスムーズにさせる効果がある。なぜなら、冷気吹出口20の近くに冷気流れの障害となる収納物が載置された場合であっても、W寸法部から下方の空間2bへと冷気が流れるからである。この下方に流れた冷気は、空間2bの後方で、冷気吹出口20b、20eからの冷気と合流し、空間2b内を上述のように冷却可能である。   In addition, in this Example, since W dimension is taken large, even if it is a case where many foodstuffs are mounted on the shelf board 10, there exists an effect which makes the cool air flow of the whole refrigerator smooth. This is because even if a stored item that obstructs the cool air flow is placed near the cool air outlet 20, the cool air flows from the W dimension portion to the lower space 2b. The cold air that has flowed downward joins the cold air from the cold air outlets 20b and 20e behind the space 2b, and the inside of the space 2b can be cooled as described above.

図7に示す例は、ランプカバー19の中央に別部品のガイド部品24を取付けた例を示すもので他は実施例1と同じである。図から明らかなように本実施形態に示すランプカバー19は矩形の柱状をなしており、冷気吹出口20a、20dより出た冷気の向きを冷蔵室2の冷蔵室扉5側に変えるガイド斜面19aをランプカバー19とは別部品であるガイド部品24で作ったものである。すなわち、冷気吹出口20a、20dより出た冷気はガイド部品24が作る円弧によってガイドされ、図7に示す風向き、すなわち、上述の実施例と同様の風向きに変換される。なお、ガイド部品24の形状は、必ずしも円弧である必要はなく、図3のように斜面を有する形状としてもよい。   The example shown in FIG. 7 shows an example in which another guide part 24 is attached to the center of the lamp cover 19 and the other parts are the same as those in the first embodiment. As is apparent from the figure, the lamp cover 19 shown in the present embodiment has a rectangular column shape, and the guide slope 19a changes the direction of the cold air coming out of the cold air outlets 20a, 20d to the cold room door 5 side of the cold room 2. Is made of a guide part 24 which is a separate part from the lamp cover 19. That is, the cold air that has exited from the cold air outlets 20a and 20d is guided by the arc formed by the guide component 24, and is converted into the wind direction shown in FIG. 7, that is, the same wind direction as in the above-described embodiment. The shape of the guide component 24 is not necessarily a circular arc, and may be a shape having a slope as shown in FIG.

この際、ガイド部品24の材質にはランプカバー20の透光をあまり阻害することない材質を選ぶ必要がある。また、ガイド部品24の頂部24aが冷気通路17の奥行位置Hとほぼ同位置に設定される。この例では、ランプカバー19とガイド部品24の奥行寸法をプラスしたものがH寸法となっており、冷気吹出口20a、20dはガイド部品24の作る円弧部に対向して設けられていると云うことである。   At this time, it is necessary to select a material that does not obstruct the light transmission of the lamp cover 20 as the material of the guide component 24. In addition, the top 24 a of the guide component 24 is set at substantially the same position as the depth position H of the cold air passage 17. In this example, the dimension obtained by adding the depth dimension of the lamp cover 19 and the guide part 24 is the H dimension, and the cold air outlets 20a and 20d are provided to face the arc portion formed by the guide part 24. That is.

上記の各実施例によれば、冷却器を経た冷気は棚板により細分化された空間2a、2b、2cに対し、冷気吹出口20a−20d、20b−20e、20c−20fよって冷気が吹き出されて冷気が案内されるため、一つの空間に対し吹出口が多数ある場合であっても、冷気が分散されにくい構成とすることができる。   According to each of the embodiments described above, the cold air that has passed through the cooler is blown out by the cold air outlets 20a-20d, 20b-20e, and 20c-20f into the spaces 2a, 2b, and 2c subdivided by the shelf boards. Therefore, even if there are a large number of air outlets in one space, the structure can be configured such that the cold air is not easily dispersed.

すなわち、一つの空間2aを冷却する冷気は、冷気吹出口20a−20dによって吹き出される構成であり、冷却器を経た全冷気のうち、空間2aを冷却する冷気は主としてこの二つの吹出口に集約された構造である。したがって、従来のように冷蔵室2内の全体に分散することによって扉ポケット22まで至らないという状況を回避できる。   That is, the cool air that cools one space 2a is blown out by the cool air outlets 20a-20d, and the cool air that cools the space 2a out of all the cool air that has passed through the cooler is mainly concentrated in these two outlets. It is a structured. Therefore, it is possible to avoid the situation where the door pocket 22 is not reached by being dispersed throughout the refrigerator compartment 2 as in the prior art.

また、二つの冷気吹出口より水平に吹出された冷気は、ランプカバー19側に設けられたガイド斜面を利用して、ランプカバー19の中央部に向けられ、この中央位置で他側の冷気吹出口より吹き出された冷気と衝突、合流し、冷蔵室扉ポケット側に向かう気流となる。この過程において、扉ポケット部22に至る冷気と、空間2a内を冷却する冷気とがともに得られるため、これを繰り返すことによって冷蔵室空間2a及び扉ポケット22の収納物23は、冷蔵室2の設定温度にまで冷却され、扉ポケット部と棚板10の収納空間の冷却を両立できる。すなわち、冷蔵室(空間)に吹き出される冷気の一部は分散されずに集約され、気流となって扉ポケット部に向かう構成とすることによって、扉ポケット部の収納物の冷却を十分に行うことができる。   Moreover, the cold air blown out horizontally from the two cold air outlets is directed to the central portion of the lamp cover 19 by using the guide slope provided on the lamp cover 19 side, and the cold air blow on the other side at this central position. It collides with the cold air blown out from the outlet, merges, and becomes an air flow toward the refrigerator compartment door pocket. In this process, both the cold air reaching the door pocket portion 22 and the cold air for cooling the space 2a are obtained. By repeating this, the refrigerating room space 2a and the stored items 23 in the door pocket 22 are stored in the refrigerating chamber 2. It is cooled to the set temperature, and both the door pocket portion and the storage space for the shelf board 10 can be cooled. That is, a part of the cold air blown into the refrigerator compartment (space) is aggregated without being dispersed, and the airflow is directed to the door pocket portion, thereby sufficiently cooling the stored items in the door pocket portion. be able to.

また、扉ポケット部の収納量が拡大しつつある家庭用冷蔵庫においても、十分に冷却可能とすることができる。また、冷気吹出口20を冷気通路17の側面に設けたことによって、開口部分が正面から見えず、冷蔵室内の意匠性も向上される。さらには、ランプカバー19表面の曇りをも低減し、収納物への悪影響を防止できるだけではなく、庫内灯21の明かりを曇りによって遮ることはない。   Further, even in a home refrigerator where the storage amount of the door pocket portion is increasing, it can be sufficiently cooled. Further, by providing the cold air outlet 20 on the side surface of the cold air passage 17, the opening portion cannot be seen from the front, and the design in the refrigerator compartment is improved. Furthermore, the fogging of the surface of the lamp cover 19 can be reduced to prevent adverse effects on the stored items, and the light of the interior lamp 21 is not blocked by the fogging.

また、ランプカバー19を挟んで1対設けられた冷気吹出口20を棚板10で複数段の空間に分けられた空間毎に設けるようにしたものであるから、棚板で区分されたそれぞれの空間はほぼ均一に冷却され、冷気吹出口20より吹き出された冷気は棚板10の載置面によって前方へと誘導され、扉ポケット部22にまで到達する。したがって、扉ポケット22内の収納品23の冷却を行なうことができる。   Moreover, since the cold air outlet 20 provided in a pair with the lamp cover 19 in between is provided for each space divided into a plurality of spaces by the shelf board 10, each of the compartments divided by the shelf board is provided. The space is cooled substantially uniformly, and the cold air blown out from the cold air outlet 20 is guided forward by the placement surface of the shelf board 10 and reaches the door pocket portion 22. Therefore, the stored item 23 in the door pocket 22 can be cooled.

また、冷気吹出口20に対向するランプカバー部に円弧又は傾斜面を設け、冷気吹出口20から吹き出された冷気を合流させる構成としたので、ランプカバー自体の強度アップと冷気のスムーズな誘導が可能である。   Moreover, since the arc cover or the inclined surface is provided in the lamp cover portion facing the cold air outlet 20, and the cold air blown out from the cold air outlet 20 is joined, the strength of the lamp cover itself is increased and the cold air is smoothly guided. Is possible.

また、各段の冷気吹出口に設けた傾斜面20gと、ランプカバー19の傾斜面19aを合わせて設けることによって、指向性を持って吐出された冷気がさらにランプカバー側の誘導ガイドによってスムーズにランプカバーに沿って流れ、ほぼ中央でぶつかって合流する際の反発力を低減でき、扉ポケット側への気流を生じやすくできる。   Further, by providing the inclined surface 20g provided at each stage of the cold air outlet and the inclined surface 19a of the lamp cover 19, the cold air discharged with directivity is further smoothly guided by the guide guide on the lamp cover side. It is possible to reduce the repulsive force when flowing along the lamp cover and colliding with each other at the center, and it is easy to generate an air flow toward the door pocket.

また、棚板10の後端をほぼ直線状とし、冷気ダクト及びランプカバーに当接若しくは近接させ設置するようにしたため、棚板10の形状をシンプルとでき、棚板10に載置される食品を効率よく収納することができる。   Further, since the rear end of the shelf board 10 is made substantially linear and is placed in contact with or close to the cold air duct and the lamp cover, the shape of the shelf board 10 can be simplified, and the food placed on the shelf board 10. Can be stored efficiently.
