Description

本発明の実施形態は、冷蔵庫に関する。   Embodiments of the present invention relate to a refrigerator.

従来、例えば家庭用の冷蔵庫において、冷蔵室内の収納性を向上させるために、冷蔵室内に取外可能な庫内棚を設けることが一般的に行われている。この場合、庫内棚の傾きや回転、又は脱落を防止するために、庫内棚の左右両端部からフックを突出させて設け、この庫内棚を支持する棚受部に前記フックを係合させたものがある(例えば、特許文献1)。   2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, for example, in a refrigerator for home use, in order to improve the storage performance in a refrigerated room, it is generally performed to provide a removable shelf in the refrigerated room. In this case, in order to prevent the inside shelf from tilting, rotating, or falling off, hooks are provided to protrude from both left and right ends of the inside shelf, and the hook is engaged with a shelf receiving portion that supports the inside shelf. (For example, Patent Document 1).

ところで、冷蔵庫においては、冷蔵室内を照明するようにしており、その照明器は天井に設けられたり、内壁に設けられたり、またはその両方に設けられたりする。このような照明器として、庫内棚の前端から前方に若干離れて位置したものが提案されている(例えば、特許文献2)。   By the way, in the refrigerator, the refrigerator compartment is illuminated, and the illuminator is provided on the ceiling, the inner wall, or both. As such an illuminator, an illuminator that is located slightly away from the front end of the internal shelf has been proposed (for example, Patent Document 2).

このような構成の照明器においては、各庫内棚の後部に照明の光が届き難く、庫内棚の後方部が暗くなり易いという事情があった。このため、照明器を、庫内棚の奥行方向における中央付近の左右側壁に設けることで、前記庫内棚上面全体を照らして視認性の向上を図ることが考えられる。しかし、庫内棚の左右に位置する冷蔵室側壁に、冷蔵室の内方に突出させて照明器などの構造物を設けると、この構造物と庫内棚のフックとが干渉して庫内棚の取付けや取外しが困難になるなどの問題が懸念される。   In the illuminator having such a configuration, there is a circumstance that it is difficult for illumination light to reach the rear part of each shelf, and the rear part of the shelf is easily darkened. For this reason, it is possible to improve visibility by illuminating the entire upper surface of the internal shelf by providing the illuminators on the left and right side walls near the center in the depth direction of the internal shelf. However, if a structure such as an illuminator is provided on the side walls of the refrigerator compartment that are located on the left and right sides of the shelf in the warehouse, the structure and the hooks of the cabinet shelves interfere with each other. There are concerns about problems such as difficulty in attaching and removing the shelves.

以下、一実施形態について、図面を参照しながら説明する。
図1において、本実施形態に係る冷蔵庫1の断熱箱体2は、前面を開口させた縦長矩形箱状をなしている。この断熱箱体2は、鋼板製の外箱3と、この外箱3の内部に離間して収容された合成樹脂製の内箱4との間に、例えばウレタンのような発泡断熱材を発泡充填させて構成されている。詳しい説明は省略するが、この断熱箱体2には、冷凍サイクル(図示せず)などが組込まれている。
Hereinafter, an embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings.
In FIG. 1, the heat insulation box 2 of the refrigerator 1 which concerns on this embodiment has comprised the vertically long rectangular box shape which opened the front surface. The heat insulating box 2 is formed by foaming a foam heat insulating material such as urethane between a steel plate outer box 3 and a synthetic resin inner box 4 which is housed in the outer box 3 at a distance. It is configured to be filled. Although detailed description is omitted, a refrigeration cycle (not shown) and the like are incorporated in the heat insulating box 2.

冷蔵庫1は、断熱箱体2の内部が複数に区画されて、前面に開口部を有する複数の貯蔵室を備えて構成される。具体的には、冷蔵庫1は、最上部に位置して容積が最も大きい冷蔵室5と、この冷蔵室5の下方に配置された野菜室6と、野菜室6の下方の左側に配置された製氷室7と、製氷室7の右側に配置された小冷凍室8と、これら製氷室7及び小冷凍室8の下方に配置された冷凍室9とを備えて構成されている。   The refrigerator 1 includes a plurality of storage chambers in which the inside of the heat insulating box 2 is partitioned into a plurality of parts and has an opening on the front surface. Specifically, the refrigerator 1 is disposed at the uppermost refrigerating room 5 having the largest volume, the vegetable room 6 disposed below the refrigerating room 5, and the left side below the vegetable room 6. The ice making chamber 7, a small freezing chamber 8 disposed on the right side of the ice making chamber 7, and a freezing chamber 9 disposed below the ice making chamber 7 and the small freezing chamber 8 are configured.

各貯蔵室の前面には、これら貯蔵室の開口部を開閉させるように、例えばウレタンのような発泡断熱材を発泡充填させた断熱扉が設けられている。具体的には、冷蔵室5の前面の開口部5dには、観音開式の左扉10及び右扉11が設けられている。これら左扉10及び右扉11は、それぞれ図示しないヒンジにより左右方向に回動可能に枢支されている。そして、左扉10の周囲にはガスケット10aが設けられて、右扉11の周囲にはガスケット11aが設けられている。これにより、冷蔵室5内部の冷気が外部に漏れることを防いでいる。また、左扉10は右扉11よりも左右方向の幅寸法が短く設定されている。左扉10の内側(冷蔵室5側)には、冷蔵室5側へ突出するように左ドアポケット12が上下方向に3段設けられている。同様に、右扉11の内側(冷蔵室5側)にも、冷蔵室5側へ突出するように右ドアポケット13が上下方向に3段設けられている。   A heat insulating door filled with a foam heat insulating material such as urethane is provided on the front surface of each storage chamber so as to open and close the openings of these storage chambers. Specifically, a left door 10 and a right door 11 are provided at the front opening 5 d of the refrigerator compartment 5. The left door 10 and the right door 11 are pivotally supported by a hinge (not shown) so as to be turnable in the left-right direction. A gasket 10 a is provided around the left door 10, and a gasket 11 a is provided around the right door 11. Thereby, the cold air inside the refrigerator compartment 5 is prevented from leaking outside. The left door 10 is set to have a width dimension shorter than that of the right door 11. On the inner side of the left door 10 (the refrigerator compartment 5 side), the left door pocket 12 is provided in three stages in the vertical direction so as to protrude toward the refrigerator compartment 5 side. Similarly, the right door pocket 13 is provided in three steps in the vertical direction on the inner side of the right door 11 (in the refrigerator compartment 5 side) so as to protrude toward the refrigerator compartment 5 side.

野菜室6、製氷室7、小冷凍室8及び冷凍室9の前面には、それぞれ引出し式の扉6a,7a,8a,9aが設けられている。この場合、製氷室7の扉7aと小冷凍室8の扉8aとは、左扉10と右扉11とが分割された位置とほぼ同じ左右方向の位置で分割されている。なお、冷蔵庫1の下部後部に配置された図示しない圧縮機により前記冷凍サイクルが駆動され、これにより冷却された冷気が各貯蔵室に送られて、各貯蔵室が冷却される。   Drawer-type doors 6 a, 7 a, 8 a, and 9 a are provided on the front surfaces of the vegetable room 6, ice making room 7, small freezer room 8, and freezer room 9, respectively. In this case, the door 7a of the ice making chamber 7 and the door 8a of the small freezer compartment 8 are divided at substantially the same left and right positions as the left door 10 and the right door 11 are divided. The refrigeration cycle is driven by a compressor (not shown) disposed at the lower rear part of the refrigerator 1, and the cool air cooled thereby is sent to each storage room to cool each storage room.

冷蔵室5内の最下段には、肉や魚などを収納するためのチルドケース14や、卵などを収納する小物ケース15、製氷用の水を貯留する給水タンク16が配設されている。そして、冷蔵室5内において、チルドケース14、小物ケース15、給水タンク16の直ぐ上方にはチルドルーム天井板17が配設されている。さらに、チルドルーム天井板17の上方には一枚の固定棚18が設けられている。チルドルーム天井板17及び固定棚18は、いずれもガラス製で、冷蔵室5内の左側面と右側面との間を水平状態に掛け渡すように配置されている。なお、チルドルーム天井板17及び固定棚18は、合成樹脂製としても良い。   A chilled case 14 for storing meat, fish, and the like, a small case 15 for storing eggs, and a water supply tank 16 for storing ice-making water are disposed at the bottom of the refrigerator compartment 5. In the refrigerator compartment 5, a chilled room ceiling plate 17 is disposed immediately above the chilled case 14, the accessory case 15, and the water supply tank 16. Further, a fixed shelf 18 is provided above the chilled room ceiling plate 17. The chilled room ceiling plate 17 and the fixed shelf 18 are both made of glass, and are arranged so as to extend horizontally between the left side surface and the right side surface in the refrigerator compartment 5. The chilled room ceiling board 17 and the fixed shelf 18 may be made of synthetic resin.

固定棚18の上方には、冷蔵室5内を上下に仕切るように、庫内棚たる可動棚が複数段、この場合上下方向に2段にして、上段の可動棚19及び下段の可動棚20が配置されている(図2参照)。これにより、冷蔵室5内における固定棚18の上方は、2枚の可動棚19,20によって、上から上段部5aと、中段部5bと、下段部5cとに仕切られる。この可動棚19(及び可動棚20)は、冷蔵室5内の左右両側壁の後方に設けられた上段の内箱ビード21(及び下段の内箱ビード22)と、この内箱ビード21(及び内箱ビード22)の前方に位置して設けられた後述する照明ユニット23(照明手段)とで支持されている(図3参照)。   Above the fixed shelf 18, there are a plurality of movable shelves serving as internal shelves so as to divide the refrigerator compartment 5 into upper and lower parts, in this case, two stages in the vertical direction, the upper movable shelf 19 and the lower movable shelf 20. Is arranged (see FIG. 2). Thereby, the upper part of the fixed shelf 18 in the refrigerator compartment 5 is partitioned from the top into the upper step portion 5a, the middle step portion 5b, and the lower step portion 5c by the two movable shelves 19 and 20. The movable shelf 19 (and the movable shelf 20) includes an upper inner bead 21 (and a lower inner bead 22) provided behind the left and right side walls in the refrigerator compartment 5, and the inner box bead 21 (and It is supported by an illumination unit 23 (illuminating means), which will be described later, provided in front of the inner box bead 22) (see FIG. 3).

この可動棚19(及び可動棚20)は、図8に示すように、例えば、合成樹脂製の枠体19a(及び可動棚20a)に矩形状のガラス製板19b(及びガラス製板20b)を組込んで構成されている。この場合、可動棚19(及び可動棚20)にガラスを用いると、合成樹脂を用いた場合に比べて重量が増すことになるが、これにともない、重量感や高級感が演出される。この可動棚19(及び可動棚20)は全体として、該可動棚19(及び可動棚20)の後方縁部が切欠いて形成される幅狭部19c(及び幅狭部20c)と、この幅狭部19c(及び幅狭部20c)の前方に位置して前記幅狭部19c(及び幅狭部20c)よりも幅広となる幅広部19d(及び幅広部20d)とを有して構成される。この幅狭部19c(及び幅狭部20c)の左右方向の寸法は、冷蔵室5内の左右側壁に設けられた後述する照明ユニット23のカバー24が冷蔵室5内方に最も突出している部分の間の距離よりも、短く設定されている(図3参照)。この場合、幅狭部19c(及び幅狭部20c)の両側縁部は、後述する内箱ビード21(及び内箱ビード22)には支持されるが、溝部25(及び溝部26)には支持されない幅で構成される。また、幅広部19d(及び幅広部20d)の左右方向の寸法は、冷蔵室5の左右側壁間の距離よりも若干短い寸法に設定されている。   As shown in FIG. 8, the movable shelf 19 (and the movable shelf 20) includes, for example, a synthetic resin frame 19a (and the movable shelf 20a) and a rectangular glass plate 19b (and a glass plate 20b). Built in. In this case, when glass is used for the movable shelf 19 (and the movable shelf 20), the weight is increased as compared with the case where a synthetic resin is used. The movable shelf 19 (and the movable shelf 20) as a whole has a narrow portion 19c (and a narrow portion 20c) formed by notching the rear edge of the movable shelf 19 (and the movable shelf 20), and the narrow portion. The wide portion 19d (and the wide portion 20d) is located in front of the portion 19c (and the narrow portion 20c) and is wider than the narrow portion 19c (and the narrow portion 20c). The horizontal dimension of the narrow portion 19c (and the narrow portion 20c) is such that a cover 24 of an illumination unit 23 (described later) provided on the left and right side walls in the refrigerator compartment 5 protrudes most into the refrigerator compartment 5. Is set to be shorter than the distance between (see FIG. 3). In this case, both side edges of the narrow portion 19c (and the narrow portion 20c) are supported by the inner box bead 21 (and inner box bead 22) described later, but are supported by the groove portion 25 (and groove portion 26). Constructed with a width that is not. Moreover, the dimension of the wide part 19d (and the wide part 20d) in the left-right direction is set to be slightly shorter than the distance between the left and right side walls of the refrigerator compartment 5.

次に、載置部たる内箱ビード21,22について詳述する。図2に示すように、上段の内箱ビード21は、冷蔵室5内を上段部5aと中段部5bとに仕切る上段の可動棚19を支持するように、冷蔵室5内の上方に設けられている。この上段の内箱ビード21は、高さ調整用に若干離間させて2段に設けられた、上側の内箱ビード21aと下側の内箱ビード21bとから構成される。同様に、下段の内箱ビード22は、冷蔵室5内を中段部5bと下段部5cとに仕切る下段の可動棚20を支持するように、冷蔵室5内において固定棚18の上方であって上段の内箱ビード21の下方に設けられている。この下段の内箱ビード22も、高さ調整用に若干離間させて2段に設けられた、上側の内箱ビード22aと下側の内箱ビード22bとから構成される。   Next, the inner box beads 21 and 22 that are the mounting portions will be described in detail. As shown in FIG. 2, the upper inner bead 21 is provided above the refrigerating chamber 5 so as to support the upper movable shelf 19 that partitions the refrigerating chamber 5 into an upper step portion 5 a and a middle step portion 5 b. ing. The upper inner bead 21 is composed of an upper inner bead 21a and a lower inner bead 21b, which are provided in two steps slightly apart for height adjustment. Similarly, the lower inner box bead 22 is located above the fixed shelf 18 in the refrigeration chamber 5 so as to support the lower movable shelf 20 that partitions the refrigeration chamber 5 into a middle step portion 5b and a lower step portion 5c. It is provided below the upper inner box bead 21. The lower inner box bead 22 is also composed of an upper inner box bead 22a and a lower inner box bead 22b which are provided in two stages slightly apart for height adjustment.

ここで、これら上段の内箱ビード21(上側の内箱ビード21a及び下側の内箱ビード21b)と、下段の内箱ビード22(上側の内箱ビード22a及び下側の内箱ビード22b)とは、その配置以外の構成は同じであるため、上側上段の内箱ビード21aを代表させて具体的構成について説明する。
内箱ビード21aは、冷蔵室5の後方の左右両側壁(内箱4の内側側壁)に、後述する照明ユニット23のカバー24よりも冷蔵室5の内方に突出させて設けられている(図3参照)。また、内箱ビード21aは、その上面が平面をなして可動棚19が載置されるとともに、下部はいわゆる三角リブ形状となっている(図4参照)。この内箱ビード21aは、内箱4に一体に成形されていて、組立前(発泡断熱材の充填前)においてはその内部は中空となっている。そして、断熱箱体2の組立の際に、この内箱ビード21aの内部にまで発泡断熱材を発泡充填させることで構造上の強度を増している。
Here, these upper inner box beads 21 (upper inner box beads 21a and lower inner box beads 21b) and lower inner box beads 22 (upper inner box beads 22a and lower inner box beads 22b). Since the configuration other than the arrangement is the same, a specific configuration will be described by using the upper upper inner bead 21a as a representative.
The inner box beads 21a are provided on the left and right side walls (inner side walls of the inner box 4) on the rear side of the refrigerator compartment 5 so as to protrude inward of the refrigerator compartment 5 from the cover 24 of the illumination unit 23 described later ( (See FIG. 3). Further, the inner box bead 21a has a flat upper surface on which the movable shelf 19 is placed, and the lower part has a so-called triangular rib shape (see FIG. 4). The inner box bead 21a is formed integrally with the inner box 4, and the inside thereof is hollow before assembly (before filling with the foam heat insulating material). When the heat insulation box 2 is assembled, the structural strength is increased by foaming and filling the foam heat insulation material into the inner box bead 21a.

また、内箱ビード21aの奥行方向の寸法は、可動棚19の前端から冷蔵室5の前面の開口部5dの前端までの寸法より、若干長く設定されている。このようにすることで、可動棚19を冷蔵室5の前面の開口部5d前端まで引出したときでも、可動棚19後部の左右両角部が内箱ビード21aに若干支持されるようになっている。これにより、使用者が可動棚19の前端を持って該可動棚19をスライドさせて引出す際に、内箱ビード21aによる可動棚19の支持が急に無くなって該可動棚19が落下してしまうことを防止することができる。このため、比較的重いガラス製の可動棚19においても、安全に引出して取出すことができる。   Further, the dimension in the depth direction of the inner box bead 21a is set slightly longer than the dimension from the front end of the movable shelf 19 to the front end of the opening 5d on the front surface of the refrigerator compartment 5. Thus, even when the movable shelf 19 is pulled out to the front end of the opening 5d on the front surface of the refrigerator compartment 5, the left and right corners of the rear portion of the movable shelf 19 are slightly supported by the inner box beads 21a. . As a result, when the user holds the front end of the movable shelf 19 and slides the movable shelf 19 out, the support of the movable shelf 19 by the inner box bead 21a suddenly disappears and the movable shelf 19 falls. This can be prevented. For this reason, even the relatively heavy glass movable shelf 19 can be safely pulled out.

照明手段たる照明ユニット23は、前記内箱ビード21,22の前方であって可動棚19,20の前端縁部より奥側に位置する左右両側の側壁、即ち、冷蔵室5内の前後方向の中央よりやや前方寄りであって可動棚19,20の左右に位置する左右両側の側壁(内箱4の内側側壁)にそれぞれ設けられている(図3参照)。この照明ユニット23は、後述するカバー24に設けられた溝部25,26により可動棚19,20を支持するとともに、内部にはこれら2枚の可動棚19,20を跨ぐように複数の光源を有している。これにより、照明ユニット23は、冷蔵室5の内部、特に固定棚18及び可動棚19,20の上面を照らす構成となっている。   The lighting unit 23 as lighting means is located in front of the inner box beads 21, 22 and on the left and right side walls located on the back side from the front edge of the movable shelves 19, 20, that is, in the front-rear direction in the refrigerator 5. It is provided on the left and right side walls (inner side walls of the inner box 4) respectively located on the left and right sides of the movable shelves 19 and 20 slightly forward from the center (see FIG. 3). The lighting unit 23 supports the movable shelves 19 and 20 by groove portions 25 and 26 provided in a cover 24 described later, and has a plurality of light sources inside the two movable shelves 19 and 20. is doing. Thereby, the illumination unit 23 is configured to illuminate the inside of the refrigerator compartment 5, particularly the upper surfaces of the fixed shelf 18 and the movable shelves 19 and 20.

具体的には、照明ユニット23は、全体として縦長の矩形状をなし、回路基板27が設けられた基板取付部材たる後板30に、支持部たるカバー24が被せされて構成されている(図4〜7参照)。このカバー24は、アクリルなどの透明又は半透明の樹脂から構成されていて、冷蔵室5の内側側壁よりも冷蔵室5の内方に凸状の曲線形状(いわゆる、アーチ形状)となるように突出して設けられている(図7参照)。また、カバー24には、図2で示すように、載置部たる内箱ビード21,22の上面とほぼ同じ高さとなるように凹溝形状に形成された、上段の可動棚19用の溝部25(上側の溝部25aと下側の溝部25b)と、下段の可動棚20用の溝部26(上側の溝部26aと下側の溝部26b)とが形成されている。可動棚19,20は、該可動棚19,20の左右側縁部がカバー24の凹溝形状の溝部25,26に入り込むことにより、該可動棚19,20の上下方向の移動が規制された状態で支持される。この場合、可動棚19,20は、内箱ビード21,22及びカバー24の溝部25,26にそれぞれ支持されているだけなので、凹溝形状の溝部25,26にスライドさせて出し入れすることができる。ここで、カバー24は、溝部25,26が後述する基板取付部材としての後板30の保持部30cに載置された形態で、後板30に固定されている(図4参照)。   Specifically, the illumination unit 23 has a vertically long rectangular shape as a whole, and is configured by covering a rear plate 30 as a board mounting member provided with a circuit board 27 with a cover 24 as a support portion (see FIG. 4-7). The cover 24 is made of a transparent or translucent resin such as acrylic, and has a curved shape (so-called arch shape) that protrudes inward of the refrigerator compartment 5 from the inner side wall of the refrigerator compartment 5. The protrusion is provided (see FIG. 7). Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the cover 24 has a groove portion for the upper movable shelf 19 formed in a concave groove shape so as to be almost the same height as the upper surface of the inner box beads 21, 22 as the placement portion. 25 (upper groove portion 25a and lower groove portion 25b) and a groove portion 26 for upper movable shelf 20 (upper groove portion 26a and lower groove portion 26b) are formed. The movable shelves 19 and 20 are restricted from moving in the vertical direction of the movable shelves 19 and 20 by the left and right edges of the movable shelves 19 and 20 entering the groove-shaped grooves 25 and 26 of the cover 24. Supported in state. In this case, since the movable shelves 19 and 20 are only supported by the inner box beads 21 and 22 and the groove portions 25 and 26 of the cover 24, they can be slid into and out of the recessed groove portions 25 and 26. . Here, the cover 24 is fixed to the rear plate 30 in a form in which the groove portions 25 and 26 are placed on a holding portion 30c of the rear plate 30 as a substrate mounting member described later (see FIG. 4).

カバー24内側において、溝部25,26を除く部分には、光拡散部24aが形成されている。この光拡散部24aは、例えば、左右方向に延びる溝形状が上下方向に多数設けられて、この光拡散部24aを通った光が拡散するように構成されている。この光拡散部24aによって、照明ユニット23は、指向性の強い発光ダイオードなどの光源からの光が拡散されてより均一な面光源となり、冷蔵室5内をまんべんなく照らすことができる。なお、この光拡散部24aは、例えば、シボ加工を施して光源からの光を拡散するようにしても良い。   On the inner side of the cover 24, a light diffusion portion 24a is formed in a portion excluding the groove portions 25 and 26. For example, the light diffusing portion 24a is configured such that a large number of groove shapes extending in the left-right direction are provided in the vertical direction, and light that has passed through the light diffusing portion 24a is diffused. The light diffusing section 24a allows the illumination unit 23 to diffuse light from a light source such as a light-emitting diode with high directivity to form a more uniform surface light source, and to illuminate the inside of the refrigerator compartment 5 evenly. The light diffusing unit 24a may be subjected to, for example, embossing to diffuse light from the light source.

回路基板27は、縦長の矩形状の一枚の基板28に、光源たる発光ダイオード29が複数個実装されるとともに、これら発光ダイオード29を駆動させるための駆動回路(図示せず)を有して構成されている。この場合、基板28には、3個の発光ダイオード29a,29b,29cが、可動棚19及び可動棚20をそれぞれ跨るように、つまり、カバー24の溝部25及び溝部26をそれぞれ跨るようにして配設される(図4参照)。これにより、冷蔵室5内において、上段部5aと、中段部5bと、下段部5cとの空間に発光ダイオード29a,29b,29cからの光がそれぞれ照射されて、固定棚18及び可動棚19,20の上面がまんべんなく照らされる。ここで、基板28の左右両縁部には、左右高さを違えてコ字状の切欠部28aが複数個設けられている。   The circuit board 27 includes a plurality of light emitting diodes 29 as light sources mounted on a single vertically long rectangular board 28 and a drive circuit (not shown) for driving the light emitting diodes 29. It is configured. In this case, three light emitting diodes 29a, 29b, and 29c are arranged on the substrate 28 so as to straddle the movable shelf 19 and the movable shelf 20, respectively, that is, straddle the groove portion 25 and the groove portion 26 of the cover 24, respectively. (See FIG. 4). Thereby, in the refrigerator compartment 5, the light from light emitting diode 29a, 29b, 29c is irradiated to the space of the upper stage part 5a, the middle stage part 5b, and the lower stage part 5c, respectively, and the fixed shelf 18 and the movable shelf 19, The top surface of 20 is illuminated evenly. Here, a plurality of U-shaped cutout portions 28 a having different left and right heights are provided on both left and right edges of the substrate 28.

後板30は、縦長の矩形状であって冷蔵室5の外側(図4では、右側)に凸状をなしている。また、後板30の上部の裏面(内箱4側)は、緩やかな傾斜部30aを有して構成されている。後板30の前面(冷蔵室5内方)には、基板28に設けられたそれぞれの切欠部28aに対応して、冷蔵室5内方に向かって前方上方に突出したL字形状の係止部30bが設けられている(図6参照)。回路基板27は、基板28に形成された切欠部28aが前記係止部30bに係止されることにより、左右方向及び上下方向に位置決めされて後板30に取付けられる。また、後板30の前面(冷蔵室5内方)における回路基板27の左右両側には、肉厚となる保持部30cが設けられている。この保持部30cには、前記カバー24の溝部25,26が載置される。   The rear plate 30 has a vertically long rectangular shape and has a convex shape on the outside (right side in FIG. 4) of the refrigerator compartment 5. Moreover, the back surface (the inner box 4 side) of the upper part of the rear plate 30 has a gentle inclined portion 30a. On the front surface of the rear plate 30 (inward of the refrigerator compartment 5), an L-shaped latch that protrudes forward and upward toward the inside of the refrigerator compartment 5 corresponding to each notch portion 28 a provided in the substrate 28. A portion 30b is provided (see FIG. 6). The circuit board 27 is attached to the rear plate 30 after being positioned in the left-right direction and the up-down direction by the notch 28a formed in the board 28 being locked by the locking portion 30b. In addition, on both the left and right sides of the circuit board 27 on the front surface of the rear plate 30 (inside the refrigerator compartment 5), thick holding portions 30c are provided. The groove portions 25 and 26 of the cover 24 are placed on the holding portion 30c.

後板30は、保持部30cの裏面(内箱4側)にボス部30dが形成されていて、内箱4の外側(外箱3側)から挿入される固定ねじ32によって内箱4の側壁にねじ固定される。具体的には、冷蔵室5内における内箱4の左右両側の側壁には、照明ユニット23の後板30の裏面形状に沿って、内箱4の内側側壁を外側に凹ませた収容部31が形成されている。照明ユニット23は、後板30部分が収容部31に収容される形態で配設される。そして、内箱4の外側(外箱3側)から後板30のボス部30dに対して固定ねじ32がねじ込まれることにより、照明ユニット23が内箱4に固定される。この場合、収容部31の壁面には、固定ねじ32用の複数の穴33が形成されている。また、後板30においては、ボス部30dを基準として保持部30cが配置されている。これにより、収容部31に照明ユニット23の後板30を取付ける際に、穴33を基準として、内箱ビード21(及び22)と保持部30cとの相対的な位置関係が決まることになる。   The rear plate 30 has a boss portion 30d formed on the back surface (inner box 4 side) of the holding part 30c, and a side wall of the inner box 4 by a fixing screw 32 inserted from the outer side of the inner box 4 (outer box 3 side). It is fixed to the screw. Specifically, on the left and right side walls of the inner box 4 in the refrigerating chamber 5, the accommodating portion 31 is formed by denting the inner side wall of the inner box 4 outward along the back surface shape of the rear plate 30 of the lighting unit 23. Is formed. The lighting unit 23 is disposed in a form in which the rear plate 30 portion is accommodated in the accommodating portion 31. And the illumination unit 23 is fixed to the inner box 4 by screwing the fixing screw 32 into the boss part 30d of the rear plate 30 from the outer side of the inner box 4 (outer box 3 side). In this case, a plurality of holes 33 for the fixing screws 32 are formed in the wall surface of the housing portion 31. Further, in the rear plate 30, a holding portion 30c is disposed with reference to the boss portion 30d. Thus, when the rear plate 30 of the lighting unit 23 is attached to the housing portion 31, the relative positional relationship between the inner box bead 21 (and 22) and the holding portion 30c is determined with the hole 33 as a reference.

また、照明ユニット23の後板30に設けられた回路基板27は、可動棚19,20の左右側縁よりも外側に位置して、内箱4を外側に凹ませた収容部31内に収容されるように配置され、冷蔵室5の左右側壁(内箱4の内側側壁)とほぼ並行して設けられることになる。さらに、カバー24は、可動棚19,20を支持する凹溝形状の溝部25,26における最凹部が、冷蔵室5の左右側壁とほぼ同一面上に位置するように設けられている。   Further, the circuit board 27 provided on the rear plate 30 of the lighting unit 23 is located outside the left and right side edges of the movable shelves 19 and 20 and accommodated in the accommodating portion 31 in which the inner box 4 is recessed outward. The left and right side walls of the refrigerator compartment 5 (inner side walls of the inner box 4) are provided substantially in parallel. Further, the cover 24 is provided so that the most concave portions in the groove portions 25 and 26 having a groove shape that supports the movable shelves 19 and 20 are located on substantially the same plane as the left and right side walls of the refrigerator compartment 5.

ところで、本実施形態における左右の観音開式の扉10,11は、左右それぞれ前方に最大135度程度開くように設定されている。しかし、冷蔵庫1が設置される部屋の間取りや家具などのレイアウトによっては、冷蔵庫1の左右どちらか、若しくは両側に位置して、冷蔵庫1の前面より前方に延びる壁や家具などが存在してしまうことがある。この場合、左右の観音開式の扉10,11は、壁や家具などと干渉して最大開位置まで開くことができなくなる。このような状況も考慮して、冷蔵室5内に配設されて使用者により作業される部品(清掃や配置変更などが必要な部品)は、少なくとも左右の扉10,11が90度開いた状態で冷蔵室5外へ取出せることが望ましい。   By the way, the left and right kannon doors 10 and 11 in the present embodiment are set to open up to about 135 degrees forward in the left and right directions. However, depending on the layout of the room in which the refrigerator 1 is installed and the layout of the furniture, there are walls, furniture, etc. that are located on the left or right side or both sides of the refrigerator 1 and extend forward from the front surface of the refrigerator 1. Sometimes. In this case, the left and right open doors 10 and 11 cannot be opened to the maximum open position due to interference with walls or furniture. In consideration of such a situation, at least the left and right doors 10 and 11 are opened 90 degrees for the parts (parts that need to be cleaned or rearranged) disposed in the refrigerator compartment 5 and operated by the user. It is desirable to be able to take out the refrigerator compartment 5 in a state.

ここで、左右の扉10,11を90度開いた状態において、可動棚19,20を取外して冷蔵室5内から取出す手順について、図9及び図10も参照して説明する。なお、可動棚19,20の取外し、取出し手順は同じであるため、可動棚19を代表させて説明する。
通常の使用状態(第1の状態とする)においては、図9(a)及び図10(a)で示すように、可動棚19は冷蔵室5の奥側に押し込まれて配置されている。この状態においては、可動棚19の後部の幅狭部19cは、その左右両縁部が内箱ビード21に支持されている。また、可動棚19の前部の幅広部19dは、その左右両縁部が照明ユニット23のカバー24に設けられた溝部25に支持されている。そして、この場合、可動棚19は、図2で示したように、溝部25によってその上下方向の移動が規制されている。このように可動棚19の上下方向の移動が規制されることにより、可動棚19に予期せぬ衝撃が加えられた場合、例えば、中身の入ったペットボトルなどが可動棚19の上に落とされてしまった場合に、可動棚19がその衝撃で浮き上がって溝部25から外れてしまい、これによる可動棚19の傾きや脱落を防止することができる。
Here, the procedure of removing the movable shelves 19 and 20 and taking them out from the refrigerator compartment 5 with the left and right doors 10 and 11 opened 90 degrees will be described with reference to FIGS. Since the procedures for removing and removing the movable shelves 19 and 20 are the same, the movable shelf 19 will be described as a representative.
In a normal use state (first state), as shown in FIGS. 9A and 10A, the movable shelf 19 is arranged to be pushed into the back side of the refrigerator compartment 5. In this state, the left and right edges of the narrow portion 19 c at the rear of the movable shelf 19 are supported by the inner box bead 21. The wide portion 19 d at the front portion of the movable shelf 19 is supported by a groove portion 25 provided on the cover 24 of the lighting unit 23 at both left and right edges. In this case, as shown in FIG. 2, the vertical movement of the movable shelf 19 is restricted by the groove 25. By restricting the movement of the movable shelf 19 in the vertical direction as described above, when an unexpected impact is applied to the movable shelf 19, for example, a plastic bottle containing the contents is dropped on the movable shelf 19. In such a case, the movable shelf 19 is lifted by the impact and detached from the groove portion 25, and the movable shelf 19 can be prevented from tilting or falling off.

次に、可動棚19を冷蔵室5内から取出す場合には、まず、図9(b)で示すように、左右の扉10,11を開いた状態(図9では、90度開いた状態)で、可動棚19の前端を使用者が手で持って、該可動棚19の前端が冷蔵室5の前端の開口部5dに位置するまで前方にスライドさせて引出す(図10(b)も参照)。この場合、可動棚19の幅広部19dは、溝部25より前方に位置して、この溝部25の支持から外れた状態になっている。即ち、この状態においては、可動棚19は上下方向の移動が規制されていないため、上下方向に回動可能となっていて、可動棚19を取外すことのできる取外可能状態(第2の状態とする)となる。   Next, when the movable shelf 19 is taken out from the refrigerator compartment 5, first, as shown in FIG. 9B, the left and right doors 10 and 11 are opened (in FIG. 9, 90 degrees opened). Then, the user holds the front end of the movable shelf 19 by hand and slides it forward until the front end of the movable shelf 19 is positioned at the opening 5d at the front end of the refrigerator compartment 5 (see also FIG. 10B). ). In this case, the wide portion 19 d of the movable shelf 19 is positioned in front of the groove portion 25 and is in a state of being detached from the support of the groove portion 25. That is, in this state, since the movable shelf 19 is not restricted to move in the vertical direction, the movable shelf 19 is pivotable in the vertical direction, so that the movable shelf 19 can be removed (second state). And).

なお、この第2の状態では、可動棚19の幅狭部19cの左右両端部、つまり、可動棚19後部の左右両角部は、内箱ビード21の前部に若干支持された状態になっている。この場合、可動棚19を前方にスライドさせるために、必然的に可動棚19の前端を使用者が持っているから、該可動棚19の後部が支持されていることで、該可動棚19の落下を防止することができる。   In the second state, the left and right end portions of the narrow portion 19c of the movable shelf 19, that is, the left and right corner portions of the rear portion of the movable shelf 19 are slightly supported by the front portion of the inner box bead 21. Yes. In this case, since the user inevitably has the front end of the movable shelf 19 in order to slide the movable shelf 19 forward, the rear portion of the movable shelf 19 is supported. Falling can be prevented.

ここで、可動棚19を冷蔵室5内から取出そうとして、第2の状態から該冷蔵室5の前端よりもさらに前方にそのまま引出そうとすると、左右の扉10,11のドアポケット12,13と干渉して取出すことができない。そこで、第2の状態において、図10(b)の矢印Fで示すように、可動棚19を前方に回動させる。そして、該可動棚19を、左右のドアポケット12,13を避けながら前方斜め下方に引出すことで、ドアポケット12,13と干渉せずに取出すことができる。   Here, if the movable shelf 19 is to be taken out from the refrigerator compartment 5 and is to be pulled out further forward from the front end of the refrigerator compartment 5 from the second state, the door pockets 12, 13 of the left and right doors 10, 11 are used. Cannot be taken out due to interference. Therefore, in the second state, the movable shelf 19 is rotated forward as indicated by an arrow F in FIG. The movable shelf 19 can be taken out without interfering with the door pockets 12 and 13 by pulling the movable shelf 19 obliquely forward and downward while avoiding the left and right door pockets 12 and 13.

このような本実施形態によれば、次のような効果を得ることができる。
本実施形態の構成によれば、冷蔵室5内の左右両側壁の後方には、上段の内箱ビード21(及び下段の内箱ビード22)が設けられている。また、この内箱ビード21(及び内箱ビード22)より前方に位置して冷蔵室5内の左右両側壁には、冷蔵室5内方に突出して照明ユニット23が設けられている。そして、可動棚19(及び可動棚20)は、前記内箱ビード21(及び内箱ビード22)と、照明ユニット23の支持部たるカバー24に設けられた溝部25(及び溝部26)とで支持されるとともに、この溝部25(及び溝部26)によって上下方向の移動が規制されている。これによれば、冷蔵室5内の左右側壁に、冷蔵室5内方に突出して照明ユニット23を設けた場合であっても、可動棚19(及び可動棚20)の上下方向の移動を規制することができ、従って可動棚19(及び可動棚20)に衝撃が加わった場合でも傾きや回転、脱落を防止することができる。
According to this embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
