In the process of making ice, it is difficult to correctly estimate the temperature of the ice tray, and there is a problem that it is easy to misrecognize the determination of completion of ice making.

図1において、冷蔵庫本体1は、上から順に冷蔵室10、製氷室20、切替室30、野菜室40、冷凍室50が区画形成されている。   In FIG. 1, the refrigerator main body 1 is divided into a refrigerator compartment 10, an ice making compartment 20, a switching compartment 30, a vegetable compartment 40, and a freezer compartment 50 in order from the top.

本実施の形態の冷蔵庫では、冷蔵室10および冷凍室50はそれぞれ3段階に室温を選択できるようになっており、また切替室30は冷蔵温度と冷凍温度を切替られるようになっている。   In the refrigerator according to the present embodiment, the refrigerator compartment 10 and the freezer compartment 50 can each select a room temperature in three stages, and the switching chamber 30 can switch between the refrigerator temperature and the refrigerator temperature.

冷蔵室10内には冷蔵室温度検知センサ11が配設されており、冷蔵室10の室温をコントロールしている。また、冷蔵室10には回動式の冷蔵室扉が構成されており(図示せず)、冷蔵室扉の開閉状態を検知する扉スイッチ12が配設されている。   A refrigerating room temperature detection sensor 11 is disposed in the refrigerating room 10 to control the room temperature of the refrigerating room 10. The refrigerating room 10 includes a revolving refrigerating room door (not shown), and a door switch 12 for detecting the open / closed state of the refrigerating room door is provided.

製氷室20内には製氷装置21が配設されており、給水タンク13から供給された水を製氷皿22に貯めて製氷を行う。また製氷室20には引き出し式の製氷室扉23が構成されており、製氷室扉23の開閉状態を検知する扉スイッチ24が配設されている。   An ice making device 21 is disposed in the ice making chamber 20, and water supplied from the water supply tank 13 is stored in an ice making tray 22 for ice making. The ice making chamber 20 includes a drawer type ice making chamber door 23, and a door switch 24 for detecting the open / closed state of the ice making chamber door 23 is disposed.

切替室30内には切替室温度検知センサ31が取り付けられており、切替室30の室温をコントロールしている。また、切替室30には引き出し式の切替室扉が構成されている(図示せず)。   A switching chamber temperature detection sensor 31 is attached in the switching chamber 30 to control the room temperature of the switching chamber 30. The switching chamber 30 is provided with a drawer-type switching chamber door (not shown).

野菜室40には引き出し式の野菜室扉が構成されている(図示せず)。冷凍室50内には冷凍室温度検知センサ51が取り付けられており、冷凍室50の室温をコントロールしている。また冷凍室50には引き出し式の冷凍室扉52が構成されており、冷凍室扉52の開閉状態を検知する扉スイッチ53が配設されている。   The vegetable room 40 has a drawer-type vegetable room door (not shown). A freezer temperature sensor 51 is attached in the freezer compartment 50 to control the room temperature of the freezer compartment 50. The freezer compartment 50 is provided with a drawer-type freezer compartment door 52, and a door switch 53 for detecting the open / close state of the freezer compartment door 52 is provided.

図2において、制御装置60は、圧縮機70、給水装置に使用される給水ポンプ80、製氷装置21の駆動装置として使用される駆動モータ90、送風機100などを制御するもので、例えば、マイクロコンピュータなどから構成されており、冷蔵庫本体1の背面に配置される電装基板に配置されている(図示せず)。外気温度検知センサ110は冷蔵庫の周囲温度を検知する温度センサである。   In FIG. 2, a control device 60 controls a compressor 70, a water supply pump 80 used in the water supply device, a drive motor 90 used as a drive device for the ice making device 21, a blower 100, and the like. It is comprised from the etc., and is arrange | positioned at the electrical equipment board | substrate arrange | positioned at the back surface of the refrigerator main body 1 (not shown). The outside temperature detection sensor 110 is a temperature sensor that detects the ambient temperature of the refrigerator.

なお、圧縮機70、凝縮器、減圧装置、蒸発器を順次冷媒管で管状につないで冷媒回路を構成しているが図示しない。   Although a compressor circuit, a condenser, a pressure reducing device, and an evaporator are connected in a tubular form with a refrigerant pipe in order, a refrigerant circuit is configured, but this is not shown.

以上のように構成された冷蔵庫について、以下その動作、作用を説明する。   About the refrigerator comprised as mentioned above, the operation | movement and an effect | action are demonstrated below.

図3において、まず、制御装置60の演算機能である製氷プログラムは、外気温度と、各貯蔵室の温調設定、により、あらかじめ定められた基本製氷時間を選択する。   In FIG. 3, first, an ice making program which is a calculation function of the control device 60 selects a basic ice making time determined in advance by the outside air temperature and the temperature control setting of each storage room.

この基本製氷時間は、給水が開始されてから離氷をするまでの時間である。   This basic ice making time is the time from the start of water supply to the de-icing.

次に、給水してから選択した基本製氷時間が経過した時点で、その間の各貯蔵室の扉開閉状況や室温の状況により製氷時間の延長要否を判断する。   Next, when the basic ice making time selected after the water supply has passed, it is determined whether or not the ice making time needs to be extended based on the door open / close state of each storage room and the room temperature.

つまり、基本製氷時間中に負荷変動が生じた場合は、扉の開放時間や室温の温度上昇幅により、あらかじめ定められた製氷時間の延長を行う。   That is, when a load change occurs during the basic ice making time, the ice making time is extended in advance depending on the door opening time or the room temperature rise.

最後に、製氷室温度t1が―10℃以下となった時点で製氷完了と判断して離氷を行う。   Finally, when the ice making chamber temperature t1 becomes −10 ° C. or lower, it is determined that ice making is completed and ice removal is performed.

本実施の形態においては、製氷プログラムが製氷室温t1と認識しているのは、冷凍室温度検知センサ51の検出温度である。   In the present embodiment, the ice making program recognizes that the ice making room temperature t1 is the temperature detected by the freezer temperature sensor 51.

図4において、冷凍室温度検知センサ51と製氷室温度t1は一定の乖離は示すも同期した特性であることが明らかになっており、一定の補正を行うことで、冷凍室温度検知センサ51の検出温度から製氷温度t1を推定することは可能である。   In FIG. 4, it is clear that the freezer compartment temperature detection sensor 51 and the ice making room temperature t <b> 1 have synchronized characteristics although they show a certain divergence. It is possible to estimate the ice making temperature t1 from the detected temperature.

図5、図6において、本実施の形態では図4の温度特性を示す条件として、製氷室温度t1は、製氷室20へ吐出した冷気が製氷皿22近傍を通過した後の温度とした。これに対して冷凍室温度検知センサ51は冷凍室50室内の風路において蒸発器への戻り空気温度を検知する場所に設置されている。   5 and 6, in the present embodiment, as a condition indicating the temperature characteristic of FIG. 4, the ice making chamber temperature t1 is the temperature after the cold air discharged to the ice making chamber 20 passes through the vicinity of the ice making tray 22. On the other hand, the freezer compartment temperature detection sensor 51 is installed in a place for detecting the return air temperature to the evaporator in the air passage in the freezer compartment 50.

以上、冷凍室温度検知センサ51の検知温度で製氷室温度t1を推定して製氷完了を判断することとしたが、冷蔵庫の運転状況により先に述べた冷凍室温度検知センサ51の検出温度と製氷温度t1は乖離することがあり、よって運転条件により補正を加える必要が生じる。   As described above, the ice making temperature t1 is estimated based on the temperature detected by the freezer temperature detection sensor 51 to determine completion of ice making. However, the detected temperature of the freezer temperature detecting sensor 51 described above and the ice making are determined according to the operation state of the refrigerator. The temperature t1 may deviate, so that correction needs to be made depending on operating conditions.

図7において、冷却システムが運転停止をした場合、つまり圧縮機70と送風機100がいずれも停止した状態では、製氷室室温t1は冷凍室温度検知センサ51の検出温度と乖離して上昇する。これは、本実施の形態のレイアウトにおいて製氷室20が冷凍室50より上方に位置することから、冷却システムが停止した時の庫内の自然温度分布の影響によるものであり、冷却システムの停止時間の増加に伴い、乖離温度も大きくなる傾向にあることがわかる。   In FIG. 7, when the operation of the cooling system is stopped, that is, in a state where both the compressor 70 and the blower 100 are stopped, the ice making room temperature t1 rises with a difference from the temperature detected by the freezer temperature detecting sensor 51. This is because the ice making chamber 20 is located above the freezer compartment 50 in the layout of the present embodiment, and is due to the influence of the natural temperature distribution in the cabinet when the cooling system is stopped. It can be seen that the dissociation temperature tends to increase with increasing.

よって、冷却システム停止中は、停止してからの経過時間の関数として乖離温度K1を数1で求めて製氷室温度t1を数2を補正した(数2)。   Therefore, while the cooling system is stopped, the deviance temperature K1 is obtained by Equation 1 as a function of the elapsed time since the stop, and the ice making chamber temperature t1 is corrected by Equation 2 (Equation 2).

図8において、冷却システム運転中に冷蔵室10の扉12が開放され、これを扉スイッチ13が検知すると、圧縮機70は運転状態を継続するが、送風機100は停止する。この状態では、庫内の自然温度分布の影響により、製氷室室温t1は冷凍室温度検知センサ51の検出温度と乖離して上昇する。   In FIG. 8, when the door 12 of the refrigerator compartment 10 is opened during the operation of the cooling system and the door switch 13 detects this, the compressor 70 continues to operate but the blower 100 stops. In this state, due to the influence of the natural temperature distribution in the refrigerator, the ice making room room temperature t1 rises with a deviation from the temperature detected by the freezer temperature detecting sensor 51.

これに加えて、圧縮機70が運転していることから蒸発器の温度が低下してその温度影響を受けて冷凍室温度検知センサ51の温度が低下することが明らかとなった。   In addition to this, since the compressor 70 is in operation, it has become clear that the temperature of the evaporator decreases and the temperature of the freezer compartment temperature detection sensor 51 decreases under the influence of the temperature.

以上、2つの要因による乖離は扉12の開放時間と比例的関係にあることがわかる。   As described above, it can be seen that the divergence due to the two factors is proportional to the opening time of the door 12.

よって、冷却システム運転中に扉12が開放された場合は、開放されてからの経過時間の関数として乖離温度K2を数3で求めて製氷室温度t1を補正した(数4)。   Therefore, when the door 12 is opened during the operation of the cooling system, the ice making chamber temperature t1 is corrected by obtaining the deviation temperature K2 as a function of the elapsed time since opening (Formula 4).

図9、図10において、製氷室20の扉23が開放され、これを扉スイッチ24が検知すると、圧縮機70は運転状態を継続するが、送風機100は停止する。この状態では、周囲の空気が製氷室20内に流れ込むことで、製氷室温度t1は冷凍室温度検知センサ51と乖離して急激に上昇する。   9 and 10, when the door 23 of the ice making chamber 20 is opened and the door switch 24 detects this, the compressor 70 continues to operate but the blower 100 stops. In this state, as the surrounding air flows into the ice making chamber 20, the ice making chamber temperature t1 deviates from the freezer compartment temperature detection sensor 51 and rapidly increases.

ここで、周囲温度を一定にした場合、扉23の開放中は、製氷室温度t1と冷凍室温度検知センサ51の検出温度が乖離し、この乖離は経過時間に比例することが明らかになった。   Here, when the ambient temperature is constant, it is clear that the ice making chamber temperature t1 and the temperature detected by the freezer compartment temperature detection sensor 51 deviate while the door 23 is open, and this deviation is proportional to the elapsed time. .

加えて、周囲温度が変化した場合、周囲温度により乖離の値も変化する。つまり、周囲温度が高ければ一定時間後の乖離の値も大きくなり、逆に周囲温度が低ければ乖離の値も小さくなる。   In addition, when the ambient temperature changes, the deviation value also varies depending on the ambient temperature. That is, if the ambient temperature is high, the deviation value after a certain time increases, and conversely, if the ambient temperature is low, the deviation value decreases.

よって、扉23が開放された場合は、開放されてからの経過時間と周囲温度の関数として乖離温度K3を数5で求めて製氷室温度t1を補正した(数6)。   Therefore, when the door 23 is opened, the deviance temperature K3 is obtained by Equation 5 as a function of the elapsed time from the opening and the ambient temperature, and the ice making chamber temperature t1 is corrected (Equation 6).

図11において、冷凍室50の扉52が開放され周囲の空気が流入した場合や、食材が投入された場合、冷凍室温度検知センサ51の検出温度は急激な温度上昇を示すが、製氷室温度t1は蒸発器により一旦冷却された冷気の影響により大きく変化せず、冷凍室温度検知センサ51の検出温度が高くなる方向で製氷室温度t1と乖離する。   In FIG. 11, when the door 52 of the freezer compartment 50 is opened and ambient air flows in or when food is introduced, the temperature detected by the freezer compartment temperature detection sensor 51 shows a rapid temperature rise. t1 does not change greatly due to the influence of the cold air once cooled by the evaporator, and deviates from the ice making chamber temperature t1 in the direction in which the temperature detected by the freezer temperature detection sensor 51 increases.

よって、扉23が開放された後に閉状態となったことを扉スイッチ53が検知してから所定時間後の冷凍室温度検知センサ51の検出温度の上昇幅に対応して、あらかじめ定められた定数分を減ずることで乖離分を補正した(数7)。   Therefore, a predetermined constant corresponding to the increase in the detected temperature of the freezer compartment temperature detection sensor 51 after a predetermined time after the door switch 53 detects that the door 23 has been closed. The difference was corrected by subtracting the minutes (Equation 7).

以上のように、それぞれ独自に区画形成された製氷室20と冷凍室50において、本実施の形態の製氷プログラムは、外気温度、各貯蔵室の温調設定により、あらかじめ定められた基本製氷時間を選択し、各貯蔵室の扉開閉状況や室温の状況による製氷時間の延長分をこれに加えることで製氷の完了を判断したので、簡素で比較的高い精度の制御が実現できた。   As described above, in the ice making room 20 and the freezing room 50 that are individually defined, the ice making program of the present embodiment sets a predetermined basic ice making time by setting the outside air temperature and the temperature control of each storage room. Since the selection was made and the completion of ice making was judged by adding the extension of ice making time depending on the door opening / closing situation of each storage room and the room temperature condition, simple and relatively high-precision control could be realized.

また、それぞれ独自に区画形成された製氷室20と冷凍室50において、本実施の形態の製氷プログラムは、冷凍室温度検知センサ51の検出温度をもとに製氷室温度t1を演算して、製氷完了を判断しているので、製氷室20内に別途温度検出センサ51を設置する必要がなくコスト低減が図れる。   Further, in the ice making chamber 20 and the freezer compartment 50 each independently formed, the ice making program of the present embodiment calculates the ice making chamber temperature t1 based on the temperature detected by the freezer temperature detecting sensor 51, and ice making. Since the completion is determined, it is not necessary to separately install the temperature detection sensor 51 in the ice making chamber 20, and the cost can be reduced.

さらに、本実施の形態の製氷プログラムは、冷却システム停止中に、冷凍室温度検知センサ51の検出温度を補正して製氷室温度t1を演算しているので、製氷完了制御の精度を向上させることができる。   Furthermore, since the ice making program of the present embodiment calculates the ice making chamber temperature t1 by correcting the temperature detected by the freezer temperature detecting sensor 51 while the cooling system is stopped, the accuracy of ice making completion control is improved. Can do.

さらに、本実施の形態の製氷プログラムは、送風機100が停止中に、冷凍室温度検知センサ51の検出温度を補正して製氷室温度t1を演算しているので、製氷完了制御の精度を向上させることができる。   Furthermore, since the ice making program of the present embodiment calculates the ice making chamber temperature t1 by correcting the temperature detected by the freezer temperature detecting sensor 51 while the blower 100 is stopped, the accuracy of ice making completion control is improved. be able to.

さらに、本実施の形態の製氷プログラムは、製氷室20の扉23が開放された場合、開放時間と周囲温度により、冷凍室温度検知センサ51の検出温度を補正して製氷室温度t1を演算しているので、製氷完了制御の精度を向上させることができる。   Furthermore, when the door 23 of the ice making chamber 20 is opened, the ice making program of the present embodiment calculates the ice making chamber temperature t1 by correcting the detection temperature of the freezer temperature detecting sensor 51 based on the opening time and the ambient temperature. Therefore, the accuracy of ice making completion control can be improved.

さらに、本実施の形態の製氷プログラムは、冷凍室50に食材が投入された場合に対応して、冷凍室温度検知センサ51の検出温度を補正して製氷室温度t1を演算しているので、製氷完了制御の精度を向上させることができる。   Furthermore, since the ice making program according to the present embodiment calculates the ice making room temperature t1 by correcting the temperature detected by the freezing room temperature detection sensor 51 in response to the case where food is put into the freezing room 50. The accuracy of ice making completion control can be improved.

(Embodiment 2)
FIG. 12 is a front view showing a state where the door of the refrigerator in Embodiment 2 of the present invention is removed. FIG. 13 is a flowchart showing the operation of the refrigerator in the second embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 14 is a temperature characteristic diagram of each part according to the second embodiment of the present invention.

図12、図13において、冷蔵庫本体1は、上から順に冷蔵室10、冷凍室120、野菜室130が区画形成されている。   12 and 13, the refrigerator main body 1 is divided into a refrigerator compartment 10, a freezer compartment 120, and a vegetable compartment 130 in order from the top.

冷凍室120は、上から順に製氷区画140、第一冷凍区画150、第二冷凍区画160が構成されている。   The freezer compartment 120 includes an ice making section 140, a first freezing section 150, and a second freezing section 160 in order from the top.

さらに、それぞれの区画には引き出し式の扉である製氷区画扉141、第二冷凍区画扉161が構成されている。   Furthermore, an ice making compartment door 141 and a second freezing compartment door 161 which are drawer type doors are configured in each compartment.

製氷区画140内には製氷装置142が取り付けられており、給水タンク13から供給された水を製氷皿143に貯めて製氷を行う。製氷区画扉141の開閉状態を検知する扉スイッチ144が配設されている。   An ice making device 142 is attached in the ice making section 140, and the water supplied from the water supply tank 13 is stored in an ice making tray 143 for ice making. A door switch 144 for detecting the open / close state of the ice making compartment door 141 is provided.

第二冷凍区画160には冷凍区画温度検知センサ162が取り付けられており、第二冷凍区画160の室温をコントロールしている。第二冷凍区画扉161の開閉状態を検知する扉スイッチ163が配設されている。   A freezing compartment temperature detection sensor 162 is attached to the second freezing compartment 160 to control the room temperature of the second freezing compartment 160. A door switch 163 for detecting the open / close state of the second freezing compartment door 161 is provided.

ここで、本実施の形態の送風機200は、制御装置60からの出力により、段階的に回転数を切り替えられる構成となっている。このとき、送風機200の回転数は、周囲温度、温調設定、庫内温度によって自動的に調整される。   Here, the blower 200 of the present embodiment has a configuration in which the number of rotations can be switched stepwise by the output from the control device 60. At this time, the rotation speed of the blower 200 is automatically adjusted by the ambient temperature, the temperature adjustment setting, and the internal temperature.

以上のように構成された冷蔵庫について、以下その動作、作用を説明する。   About the refrigerator comprised as mentioned above, the operation | movement and an effect | action are demonstrated below.

図14において、製氷皿143に給水された場合、製氷皿143内の温度は急激に上昇する。その後、給水された水が潜熱変化状態の間、製氷皿143の温度は約−3℃で安定し、その後給水された水が完全に凍ると製氷皿143の温度は急激に低下する。   In FIG. 14, when water is supplied to the ice tray 143, the temperature in the ice tray 143 rises rapidly. Thereafter, the temperature of the ice tray 143 is stabilized at about −3 ° C. while the supplied water is in the latent heat change state, and then the temperature of the ice tray 143 rapidly decreases when the supplied water is completely frozen.

ここで、冷蔵庫の使用条件、運転状態により製氷室温度t1が変化することで、製氷が完了するまでの時間は変化するが、1回当たりの製氷に必要な熱量は変化しないことがこれまでの実験により明らかとなった。   Here, the ice making chamber temperature t1 changes depending on the use conditions and operating conditions of the refrigerator, so that the time until ice making is completed changes, but the amount of heat required for ice making per change does not change so far. It became clear by experiment.

本実施の形態の製氷プログラムではこの熱量を数5で求めた。これは潜熱変化中の製氷皿143の温度(−3℃)と製氷区画室温度t2の温度差に風量係数gを掛けた値を積分して、この値が所定値となった場合に製氷を完了することとした。   In the ice making program of the present embodiment, the amount of heat is obtained by Equation 5. This is the result of integrating the value obtained by multiplying the temperature difference between the temperature (−3 ° C.) of the ice tray 143 during the change of latent heat and the ice making compartment temperature t2 by the air flow coefficient g, and when this value reaches a predetermined value, It was decided to complete.

ここで、風量係数gは所定の運転条件での送風機100の運転状況を1として、送風機100の運転状況により風量の増減を係数として補正したものである。   Here, the air flow coefficient g is obtained by correcting the operating state of the blower 100 under a predetermined operating condition as 1, and correcting the increase / decrease of the air flow as a coefficient according to the operating state of the blower 100.

以上、冷凍室温度検知センサ162の検知温度で製氷室の温度t1を推定して製氷完了を判断することとしたが、冷蔵庫の運転状況により先に述べた冷凍室温度検知センサ162の検出温度と製氷温度t1は乖離することがあり、本実施の形態においても実施の形態1と同一の補正を加えることにした。   As described above, the temperature t1 of the ice making chamber is estimated based on the temperature detected by the freezer temperature detection sensor 162, and the completion of ice making is determined. However, the detected temperature of the freezer temperature detecting sensor 162 described above depends on the operating condition of the refrigerator. The ice making temperature t1 may deviate, and the same correction as in the first embodiment is applied also in the present embodiment.

以上のように、冷凍室120内に製氷区画140と第二冷凍区画160が構成され、それぞれ独自の扉が配設されている冷蔵庫においても、本実施の形態の製氷プログラムは、冷凍区画温度検知センサ162の検出温度をもとに製氷室温度t2を演算して、製氷完了を判断しているので、製氷区画140内に別途温度検出センサを設置する必要がなくコスト低減が図れる。   As described above, in the refrigerator in which the ice making section 140 and the second freezing section 160 are configured in the freezer compartment 120 and each has its own door, the ice making program of the present embodiment performs the freezing section temperature detection. Since the ice making chamber temperature t2 is calculated based on the detected temperature of the sensor 162 and it is determined that ice making is completed, it is not necessary to install a separate temperature detecting sensor in the ice making section 140, and the cost can be reduced.

さらに、潜熱変化中の製氷皿143の温度(−3℃)と製氷区画温度t2の温度差に風量係数gを掛けた値を積分して、この値が所定値となった場合に製氷を完了することとしたので、簡潔で精度の高い制御が実現できた。   Further, by integrating the value obtained by multiplying the temperature difference between the ice tray 143 during the change of latent heat (−3 ° C.) and the ice making compartment temperature t2 by the air flow coefficient g, the ice making is completed when this value becomes a predetermined value. As a result, concise and accurate control was achieved.

なお、冷凍区画温度検知センサ162は、冷凍区画160の下方に位置し、冷凍室120の戻り冷気の温度を検出するように配設したが、製氷区画140、第一冷凍区画150等、冷凍室120の上方に配設しても、製氷区画温度t1と冷凍区画温度検知センサ162の相関を見直すことで、製氷プログラムは適用可能である。   The freezing compartment temperature detection sensor 162 is located below the freezing compartment 160 and is arranged to detect the temperature of the return cold air from the freezing compartment 120. However, the ice making compartment 140, the first freezing compartment 150, etc. Even if it is disposed above 120, the ice making program can be applied by reviewing the correlation between the ice making compartment temperature t1 and the freezing compartment temperature detection sensor 162.

以上のように、本発明にかかる冷蔵庫は、冷凍室に設置した温度検知センサで製氷室の温度を演算して製氷完了制御を行えるので業務用冷蔵庫の用途にも適用できる。   As described above, the refrigerator according to the present invention can be applied to a commercial refrigerator because it can control the completion of ice making by calculating the temperature of the ice making chamber with a temperature detection sensor installed in the freezer.
