  The present specification provides a technique capable of improving the heat insulating performance of a refrigerator.

  The refrigerator disclosed in the present specification includes a main body, a door, and a gasket. The door opens and closes a front opening of a storage room provided in the main body. The gasket has an engagement portion that seals between a back surface of the door and a peripheral portion of the front opening and engages with a groove provided on the back surface of the door. The opening of the groove, when viewed from the front of the main body, is located on the front opening side of the storage room, on the back surface of the door, and a portion located on the outer peripheral side of the main body from the groove. I have.

  In the above-described refrigerator, the opening of the groove is located on the front opening side (in the depth direction of the refrigerator) on the back surface of the door and on the outer peripheral side of the body with respect to the groove. For this reason, compared with the conventional configuration in which the position of the opening of the groove substantially matches the position of the back surface of the door, the area where the groove enters the inside of the door on the outer peripheral side of the main body from the groove is smaller. That is, a wide internal space of the door can be secured. Therefore, as compared with the related art, the inner space of the door can be filled with more heat insulating material. For this reason, the heat insulation performance of the refrigerator can be improved.

  The back member 48 is made of, for example, a synthetic resin. The back surface member 48 is provided with a groove 70. The groove 70 is provided at a position facing the front surface of the main body 12 (the flanges 36 and 39). The groove 70 extends so as to go around the outer peripheral edge of the back surface of the right door 30b. The groove 70 is formed so as to be concave from the opening 70a toward the inner space side (that is, the front) of the right door 30b.

  When the main body 12 is viewed from the front, the opening 70a of the groove 70 is located closer to the front opening 14a of the refrigerator compartment 14 than the portion P1 located on the outer peripheral side of the main body from the groove 70 on the back surface of the right door 30b. . As shown in FIG. 3, the portion P1 extends from the range between the opening 70a of the groove 70 and the bottom of the groove 70 toward the outer periphery of the main body. The portion P1 is connected to a side member 44 described later. Further, a portion P2 located on the center side of the main body from the groove 70 on the back surface of the right door 30b is connected to the opening 70a of the groove 70. That is, the portion P2 extends from the substantially same position as the opening 70a toward the center of the main body in the depth direction of the main body 12 (vertical direction in the drawing). The portion P2 is a range from a portion adjacent to the groove 70 (opening 70a) on the center side of the main body of the groove 70 until the groove 70 is bent backward.

  The surface member 40 is made of, for example, a glass plate. A cap member 42 made of synthetic resin (only the upper cap member 42 is shown in FIG. 3) is attached to the upper, lower, left and right outer peripheral ends of the surface member 40, respectively. The four sides of the surface member 40 are held by the four cap members 42.

  The side member 44 is made of, for example, a synthetic resin. A cap member 46 made of a synthetic resin (only the upper cap member 46 is shown in FIG. 3) is attached to the upper end and the lower end of the side member 44, respectively. That is, in the right door 30b, the surface member 40 located on the front surface and the side member 44 located on the side surface thereof are capped by different cap members 42 and 46, respectively.

  Further, the side surface member 44 is provided with a protruding portion 31 protruding rearward from the portion P1 on the back surface of the right door 30b on the outer edge on the pivot side (that is, the outer peripheral side of the main body). The protruding portion 31 is provided with an inclined portion 31a in which the width (length in the left-right direction in the drawing) of the protruding portion 31 gradually decreases from the outer peripheral side of the main body. An interval is provided between the tip of the protrusion 31 and the peripheral edge 15 of the front opening 14a. The peripheral portion 15 is the front surface of the main body 12 including the flange portions 36 and 39 surrounding the front opening portion 14a. The distance L of the interval is not particularly limited, but is, for example, less than 5.6 mm. Further, the tip of the protruding portion 31 is located behind the position of the front surface of the magnet 54 described later, and when the refrigerator 10 is viewed from the side, a member located on the front surface of the magnet housing portion 56 described later (for example, a member described later) The third protruding portion 67) is configured to be hidden.

  The vegetable compartment 16, the ice making compartment 18, the upper freezing compartment 20 and the lower freezing compartment 22 are provided with drawer-type doors 16a, 18a, 20a and 22a, respectively. The front part of each door 30a, 30b, 16a, 18a, 20a, 22a is covered with a glass plate.

(Configuration of Gasket 50)
The refrigerator 10 also includes a gasket 50 arranged between the main body 12 and the right door 30b, as shown in FIG. FIG. 3 shows the gasket 50 for the right door 30b, but a similar gasket 50 is also provided for the left door 30a. Illustration of the gasket 50 for the left door 30a is omitted.

  The gasket 50 is attached to the back surface of the right door 30b (that is, the surface on the main body 12 side). The gasket 50 seals between the back surface of the right door 30b and the peripheral portion 15 of the front opening 14a of the refrigerator compartment 14. The gasket 50 is provided so as to make a circuit between the back surface of the right door 30b and the peripheral portion 15. The gasket 50 is formed by, for example, extruding a synthetic resin material such as polyvinyl chloride. As shown in FIG. 4, the gasket 50 includes an engaging portion 52, a magnet 54, a magnet housing portion 56, a first connecting portion 58, a second connecting portion 60, a third connecting portion 62, and a fourth The connecting portion 63, the first protrusion 64, the second protrusion 66, and the third protrusion 67 are provided.

  The engaging portion 52 engages with a groove 70 provided on the back surface of the right door 30b to fix the gasket 50 to the right door 30b. When the engaging portion 52 engages with the groove 70, the base 52 a of the engaging portion 52 closes the opening 70 a of the groove 70.

  The magnet 54 is accommodated in the magnet accommodating portion 56, and contacts the peripheral edge 15 of the front opening 14a (the flange 36 of the outer box 12a) when the right door 30b is closed. The magnet 54 is formed such that the length in the thickness direction (vertical direction in the drawing) is longer than the length in the width direction (horizontal direction in the drawing). The magnet 54 is provided so as to be located on the outer peripheral side of the main body with respect to the groove 70 when the main body 12 is viewed from the front. In other words, when the main body 12 is viewed from the front, the magnet 54 is offset toward the outer peripheral side of the main body with respect to the groove 70.

  The first connecting portion 58 connects the base 52 a of the engaging portion 52 of the gasket 50 and the magnet housing 56. The first connecting portion 58 extends from the rear side of the main body center side surface of the magnet housing portion 56. The first connecting portion 58 has a first bending portion 58a that curves toward the center of the main body. Specifically, after the first connecting portion 58 extends from the magnet housing portion 56 toward the center of the main body and exceeds the groove portion 70, the engaging portion 52 extends from the center of the main body through the first bending portion 58a that curves forward. Is connected to the base 52a. That is, both ends of the first connection portion 58 are connected to the magnet housing portion 56 and the base portion 52a of the engagement portion 52 via the first curved portion 58a.

  The second connecting portion 60 connects the base 52 a of the engaging portion 52 of the gasket 50 and the magnet housing 56. The second connecting portion 60 is a surface on the center side of the main body of the magnet housing portion 56 and extends from the front of the first connecting portion 58. The second connecting portion 60 has a second curved portion 60a that curves toward the center of the main body. Specifically, the second connecting portion 60 extends from the magnet housing portion 56 to the outer peripheral side of the main body via the second curved portion 60a that curves forward in the vicinity of the opening 70a on the outer peripheral side of the main body of the groove 70, and then again. It is bent toward the center of the main body and is connected to the base 52 a of the engaging portion 52.

  The third connecting portion 62 connects between the base 52 a of the engaging portion 52 and the first connecting portion 58. The third connecting portion 62 extends linearly in the thickness direction of the gasket 50 (vertical direction in the drawing) at the center position of the engaging portion 52 in the left-right direction.

  The fourth connecting portion 63 connects between the base 52 a of the engaging portion 52 and the first connecting portion 58 on the center side of the main body with respect to the third connecting portion 62. The fourth connecting portion 63 has a fourth curved portion 63a that curves toward the center of the main body.

  The inside of the gasket 50 includes a first bag-like portion 90, a second bag-like portion 90, a second connection portion 60, a third connection portion 62, and a fourth connection portion 63. It is divided into a bag portion 92 and a third bag portion 94. An air layer is formed inside each of the bag-shaped portions 90, 92, 94. Specifically, the first bag-shaped portion 90 is a space defined by the magnet housing portion 56, the first connection portion 58, the third connection portion 62, the base portion 52a, and the second connection portion 60. The second bag-shaped portion 92 is a space defined by the first connecting portion 58, the fourth connecting portion 63, the base 52a, and the third connecting portion 62. The third bag-shaped portion 94 is a space defined by the first connecting portion 58, the base 52a, and the fourth connecting portion 63.

  When the right door 30b is changed from the open state to the closed state, as shown in FIG. 3, an external force is applied to the gasket 50, and each of the bag-shaped portions 90, 92, and 94 causes the peripheral portion 15 of the front opening 14a (that is, the outer edge 15). It is pressed by the flange 36 of the box 12a and the flange 39) of the inner box 12b. As a result, the space between the back surface of the right door 30b and the peripheral portion 15 of the front opening 14a is sealed. As a result, the internal space S1 of the refrigerator 10 is insulated from the external space S2.

  The first protrusion 64 protrudes from the first curved portion 58a toward the center of the main body. The second protrusion 66 projects from the rear of the first protrusion 64 of the first curved portion 58a toward the center of the main body. The first protrusion 64 and the second protrusion 66 extend in a fin shape from the first curved portion 58a toward the center of the main body. FIG. 5 is an enlarged cross-sectional view around the first protrusion 64 and the second protrusion 66. As shown in FIG. 5, the thickness of the first connecting portion 58 in the range A1 between the first projecting portion 64 and the second projecting portion 66 is smaller than the thickness of the first connecting portion 58 in other portions. In addition, the third protrusion 67 protrudes from the front surface of the magnet housing portion 56 to the back surface of the right door 30b.

  As shown in FIG. 6, in a state where the gasket 50 is released from an external force (that is, the right door 30b is opened), the rear end of the first connecting portion 58 is located behind the rear surface of the magnet housing portion 56. ing. That is, the rearmost position in each of the bag-shaped portions 90, 92, 94 is located behind the magnet housing portion 56. Then, when the right door 30b switches from the open state to the closed state (when switching from the state of FIG. 6 to the state of FIG. 3), the gasket 50 (the first connecting portion 58) is positioned at the periphery as shown by the arrow Y1. The portion 15 is pressed and deformed. At this time, as shown by an arrow Y2, the first projection 64 transitions to the back side of the right door 30b, and comes into contact with the back surface member 48 of the right door 30b closer to the center of the main body than the groove 70. Further, as shown by an arrow Y3, the second protrusion 66 transitions toward the main body 12 and comes into contact with the inner box 12b. Further, as shown by the arrow Y4, the third protrusion 67 contacts the side member 44 of the right door 30b.

(effect)
In the refrigerator 10 of the present embodiment, the position of the opening 70a of the groove 70 is located rearward (on the front opening 14a side) of the portion P1 on the outer peripheral side of the main body on the back surface of the right door 30b. Accordingly, the area where the groove 70 enters the inside of the right door 30b is reduced, so that a wide internal space of the right door 30b can be secured. Therefore, the amount of the heat insulating material filled in the internal space of the right door 30b can be increased. Further, a portion P <b> 2 of the back surface of the right door 30 b that is located closer to the center of the main body than the groove 70 extends from the substantially same position as the opening 70 a of the groove 70 toward the center of the main body in the depth direction of the main body 12. Therefore, the internal space of the right door 30b on the center side of the main body with respect to the groove 70 can be widely used, and the space can be filled with a lot of heat insulating material. Therefore, in the refrigerator 10 of the present embodiment, the flow of heat into the refrigerator 10 is reduced, and the heat insulation performance of the refrigerator 10 can be improved. Since the portion P2 is generally located closer to the center of the main body than the rotation shaft center 96 of the hinge member 34, the distance between the portion P2 and the peripheral portion 15 does not decrease when the right door 30b is opened and closed ( (See FIG. 7). Therefore, even when the portion P2 is located at substantially the same position as the opening 70a of the groove 70 in the depth direction of the main body 12, they do not interfere with each other.

  Further, in the depth direction of the main body 12, the position of one of the openings 70a (the center side of the main body) of the groove 70 substantially coincides with the position of the back surface of the right door 30b. The located members (groove 70, portions P1, P2, etc.) can be easily manufactured by injection molding.

  Further, in the refrigerator 10 of the present embodiment, the first connecting portion 58 and the second connecting portion 60 have a first bending portion 58a and a second bending portion 60a which are bent toward the center of the main body, respectively. Furthermore, the fourth connecting portion 63 also has a fourth curved portion 63a that curves toward the center of the main body. As described above, since each connecting portion has a portion curved toward the center of the main body, it is possible to sufficiently secure the flexibility in the opening and closing direction of the right door 30b.

  Further, in the gasket 50 of the present embodiment, since all the connecting portions 58, 60, 62, 63 extending from the magnet accommodating portion 56 extend from the surface of the magnet accommodating portion 56 on the center side of the main body, the magnet accommodating portion 56. Most faces the external space S2. Generally, the magnet 54 has higher thermal conductivity than air. For this reason, the magnet 54 absorbs the heat released from the radiating pipe 80 for lowering the temperature of the refrigerant on the way from the compressor to the cooler or raising the temperature of the outer surface of the main body 12 to prevent dew. This promotes transmission to the inside of the refrigerator 10. However, in the present embodiment, since most of the magnet accommodating portion 56 faces the outer space S2 of the refrigerator 10, heat radiation to the outer space S2 side becomes more dominant than the inner space S1 side of the refrigerator 10, and The flow of heat into the inside 10 can be suppressed.

  In the present embodiment, when the main body 12 is viewed from the front, the magnet 54 is located on the outer peripheral side of the main body with respect to the groove 70. For this reason, the thickness of the entire gasket 50 can be reduced as compared with the configuration in which the groove 70 and the magnet 54 overlap when the main body 12 is viewed from the front. Further, in the gasket 50 of the present embodiment, since the magnet 54 is offset with respect to the groove 70, the thickness of the central portion of the main body (the bag-like portions 90, 92, 94, etc.) is reduced more than the magnet 54. In addition, the thickness of the magnet 54 can be secured, and a sufficient magnetic force of the magnet 54 can be secured. Further, even when the temperature of the magnet 54 having high thermal conductivity increases, the heat of the magnet 54 does not easily flow into the refrigerator 10 because the magnet 54 is located on the outer peripheral side of the main body. Further, since the contact area between the entire bag-like portions 90, 92, and 94 of the gasket 50 and the magnet housing portion 56 is small, heat is less likely to be conducted to the internal space S1 side.

  In the closed state of the right door 30b, the space S3 is formed by the first protrusion 64 abutting on the back surface of the right door 30b, and the space S4 is formed by the second protrusion 66 abutting on the inner box 12b. The space S5 is formed by the contact of the third protrusion 67 with the side surface member 44. In this manner, in the closed state of the right door 30b, air layers shown in the spaces S3 to S5 are formed in addition to the bags 90, 92, and 94. Therefore, the thermal conductivity of the entire gasket 50 can be further reduced, and the heat insulating performance of the refrigerator 10 is further improved.

  In the first connecting portion 58, the thickness of the range A1 between the first protrusion 64 and the second protrusion 66 is smaller than the thickness of other portions. For this reason, when the right door 30b is closed and the respective bag-shaped portions 90, 92, 94 are pressed, the deformation of the gasket 50 in the range A1 becomes larger than the deformation in other portions. Therefore, the angle between the first projection 64 and the second projection 66 is easily changed, and the projections 64 and 66 can be suitably brought into contact with the respective surfaces.

  Further, the first connecting portion 58 and the base 52a of the engaging portion 52 are connected by a third connecting portion 62 having a linear shape. Therefore, when the right door 30b is opened, the magnet 54 can be efficiently separated from the peripheral portion 15 by the third connecting portion 62.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 7, generally, the center 96 of the rotation shaft of the hinge member 34 is provided closer to the center of the main body than the outermost surface of the refrigerator 10. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 7, in the process of opening and closing the door, the distance between the rear surface of the door and the peripheral edge 15 is closer to the distance L1 than the distance L between the rear surface of the door and the peripheral edge 15 in the closed state. Timing occurs. In the refrigerator 10 of the present embodiment, since the protruding portion 31 provided on the back surface of the right door 30b has the inclined portion 31a, the tip of the protruding portion 31 (the portion closest to the peripheral edge 15 in the closed state) is right. It is located closer to the center of the main body than the outermost surface of the door 30b. For this reason, in the process of opening and closing the right door 300b of the refrigerator (refrigerator in which the side surface of the right door 300b extends straight rearward) 100 of the comparative example having no inclined portion shown in FIG. In the process of opening and closing the right door 30b, the distance L1 of the right door 30b approaching the peripheral portion 15 is shorter than the distance L2 approaching the peripheral portion 115. The distance L can be set shorter because the tip of the protruding portion 31 and the peripheral edge portion 15 are less likely to interfere as compared with the related art. By setting the distance L to be short, the user's finger can be prevented from entering the gap between the right door 30b and the main body 12.

  In addition, since the position of the tip of the protruding portion 31 is closer to the center of the main body than the heat radiating pipe 80, the path from the heat radiating pipe 80 to the internal space S1 of the refrigerator 10 is narrowed. 10 can be efficiently discharged to the external space S2 side.

  In the refrigerator 10 of the present embodiment, a finger probe (JIS C 0922, JIS C0922, JIS C0922) in which the distance L between the tip of the protruding portion 31 and the peripheral portion 15 is similar to that of a baby of about 0 to 3 years old. Probe code 19, IEC 61032). For this reason, a child's finger is prevented from entering between the right door 30b and the main body 12, and safety is improved.

  The right door 30b has a surface member 40 that covers the front surface and a side member 44 provided on the side surface thereof, which are capped by different cap members 42 and 46, respectively. For this reason, manufacture becomes easy compared with the case where the right door 30b is integrally formed.

  While some embodiments of the invention have been described, these embodiments have been presented by way of example only, and are not intended to limit the scope of the inventions. These embodiments can be implemented in other various forms, and various omissions, replacements, and changes can be made without departing from the scope of the invention.

  In the above-described embodiment, the gasket 50 is attached to the groove 70 provided on the back surface of the double doors 30a, 30b, but the groove portion is provided on the back surface of the drawer type door 16a, 18a, 20a, 22a.
