Abstract

[PROBLEMS] To eliminate a useless space created by a door and allow an elderly person or a handicapped person to take things inside without taking a detour or asking someone else. In addition, we provide a refrigerator that can be placed anywhere as long as the refrigerator is wide enough, without thinking about the wasted space created by the doors, such as when the refrigerator is moved to a different location for renovation.
A folding door type structure is considered as a refrigerator door. And the idea is to put the door itself in the refrigerator. With the current type, most things cannot be removed without opening the doors. However, if this is the case, if you place things that you frequently take in the vicinity of the opening of the door, you can open just that much. Therefore, there is a merit in terms of energy saving.

Description

  This invention is for eliminating the useless space which the door of a refrigerator makes.

  Refrigerators currently on the market include single-sided doors that open on one side, double-sided doors that open on both sides, and drawer-type sliding doors.

The refrigerator currently on sale has a structure that can be removed only after the door is fully opened when picking up objects, but in this case it must be installed considering the location of the refrigerator.
This is because there is always enough space to open the door. Due to the space, elderly people and people with physical disabilities have difficulty getting things in the refrigerator. If this space disappears, anyone can take the refrigerator without difficulty.

  The folding door type door was considered to be a refrigerator door. And it is a means which accommodates the door itself in a refrigerator (cold room).

In addition, if you place things that are frequently taken in the vicinity of the opening of the door, you can remove the inside things without having to open the door fully, so you can open it a little from the viewpoint of cooling in the warehouse, so it will lead to energy saving. It is done.
