  Glass materials such as tempered glass are used in high-end types of refrigerators because they have a glossy surface because they can be painted on the back and have a variety of expressions. However, in the refrigerator, a handle portion is necessary to open and close the open / close door and the drawer door that rotate and open. Therefore, in order not to destroy the texture of the glass, a wide frame is formed to hold the upper glass plate of each drawer door, and a concave handle is provided on the upper surface of the frame. However, this wide and uneven frame body is formed of a resin material that is different from the glossy glass material, which impairs the design of the continuous glass material.

  Accordingly, an object (problem) of the present invention is to provide a refrigerator excellent in design that makes use of the continuity of the glass material without impairing the opening / closing function of the door.

To achieve the above object, in the refrigerator according to the present invention, there is provided a refrigerator the periphery of the side surface of the door constituted by a frame member, comprising a door having a glass plate which is supported by the frame body to the front The frame body has a recess formed on any one side, and a recess space and a handle for inserting a hand formed by projecting an end of the glass plate over the front surface of the recess, and the glass plate And an adhesion surface expanding member to be adhered .

  According to this invention, the end of the glass plate projecting to the front side of the concave portion of the frame can be used as a handle for opening the door, and the area of the glass plate covering the front of the door is widened. At the same time, the frame body in the handle portion can be prevented from being exposed to the outer surface, so that it is possible to provide a refrigerator with excellent design that makes use of the continuity of the glass material without impairing the door opening / closing function.

(First embodiment)
First, the schematic structure of the refrigerator according to this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. Here, FIG. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of the refrigerator according to the first embodiment, where (a) is a front view of the refrigerator, (b) is a longitudinal sectional view of the refrigerator, and (c) is a crossing of the door. FIG.

  In FIG. 1, the refrigerator 1 according to the first embodiment is provided with a double door 10 that is opened from the center by rotating from the center to the left and right sides, and a refrigerator compartment 100 is disposed below the drawer doors 50 and 51. The second freezing chamber 110 and the ice making chamber 120 that are configured to include the left and right are arranged side by side, the first freezing chamber 130 having the drawer door 52 is disposed below the first freezing chamber 130, and the vegetable having the drawer door 53 at the bottom. This is a large-capacity refrigerator in which the chamber 140 is arranged. The open / close door 10 and the drawer doors 50 to 53 of the refrigerator 1 have a structure in which the front surface is covered with a tempered glass plate 150 indicated by a hatched portion and the tempered glass plate 150 is held by a frame body 160.

  The door 10 of the kannon door of this embodiment is formed such that one door 10a is narrower than the other door 10b, and the pair of doors 10 are provided by hinge mechanisms 11 provided at the upper and lower ends of both sides of the refrigerator 1. It is attached to the left and right sides so that it can be opened. Further, the drawer doors 50 to 53 are attached so as to be openable and closable in the front-rear direction by a known slide mechanism (not shown).

  Moreover, the opening / closing door 10 and each of the drawer doors 50 to 53 of this embodiment include a tempered glass plate 150 that covers the front portion of the door, an inner wall cover 170 that covers the inner wall surface of the door, and a frame body 160 that covers the periphery of the side surface of the door. A box body is formed, and a vacuum heat insulating material 180 is incorporated therein, and the heat insulating material 190 is filled with foam. Specifically, a plate-like vacuum heat insulating material 180 is attached to the back side of the tempered glass plate 150, and the periphery is surrounded by a frame body 160 including an upper frame 161, a lower frame 162, and side frames 163a on both sides, and an inner wall is formed on the back side. A cover 170 is attached to form a box. Then, the heat insulating material 190 is filled by surrounding the box with holding means (not shown). Thereby, the heat insulation effect is high and the door excellent also in design is formed.

  And one of the big characteristics of the refrigerator 1 which concerns on this Example is that the function of the handle | steering-wheel part was given to the tempered glass board 150 shown by the oblique line part.

  That is, since the glass material has a glossy surface, it can be given a high-class design. Therefore, if this glass material is provided on the entire door surface of the refrigerator 1, the refrigerator 1 can be decorated with a continuous glass material, so that the design can be improved.

  However, the glass material requires a certain thickness due to the strength, and therefore the weight increases. Therefore, a frame 160 for fixing the glass material to the door is necessary. The frame body 160 is widely used as a decorative member surrounding the side surface of the door even in the furniture of the kitchen where the refrigerator 1 is installed. Therefore, the frame body 160 can be made to be familiar with the surrounding environment by forming it thinly. .

  However, in the refrigerator 1, a handle portion is necessary to open and close the opening / closing door 10 and the drawer doors 50 to 53. In particular, since the door of the refrigerator 1 includes the heat insulating material 190 or stores food, the handle portion needs to be robust. For this reason, this conventional handle portion is provided with a rod-shaped grip portion protruding from the door surface, or a part or one side of the frame 160 on the door surface is formed widely, and a hand is inserted into the frame 160 In general, a concave portion is formed.

  Therefore, the conventional refrigerator which covered the surface of the door with the glass material has the subject that it will be parted by the wide frame 160 provided with the handle part. Moreover, since the frame 160 provided with the handle portion is formed of a resin molded product, the texture of the glossy glass material and the wide frame 160 formed of the resin material that divides the glass material is obtained. The difference was a limitation in designing.

  Therefore, the inventors have conceived that a glass material has a function as a handle portion. Specifically, a recess 20 for inserting a hand into the frame body 160 is formed, and an end of the tempered glass plate 150 is provided so as to project into the recess 20, and this projecting portion is a handle portion for placing a hand. The structure 151 is adopted.

  For example, in the drawer door 50, the upper frame 161 constituting the frame body 160 is formed with a recess 20 that is continuously cut out from the front and the upper side, and the upper end of the tempered glass plate 150 is projected into the recess 20. Thus, a structure covering the lower part of the recess 20 is adopted. According to this structure, the user inserts a finger from above the recess 20, hooks the finger on the handle 151 of the tempered glass plate 150 formed by projecting below the recess 20, and pulls it forward. The drawer door 50 can be pulled out.

  And the magnitude | size which occupies for the door surface of the tempered glass board 150 can be expanded by making the edge part of the tempered glass board 150 into the handle part 151. FIG. In addition, although the recessed part 20 is formed adjacent to the handle part 151, since it is provided in the position deeper than the tempered glass plate 150, it can be made difficult for the user to recognize its presence.

  In this embodiment, the structure of the handle portion of the drawer door 50 is also adopted in the other drawer doors 51 to 53. Further, the door opening / closing door 10 is also adopted.

  That is, the pair of opening / closing doors 10a and 10b is formed by forming the recessed portion 20 along the side direction in the side frame 163a of the adjacent frame body 160 and extending the tempered glass plate 150 of the opening / closing door 10 so as to protrude into the recessed portion 20. The structure is provided. Thereby, the same effect as the drawer door 50 can be obtained.

  Another major feature of the refrigerator 1 according to this embodiment is that the back surface of the tempered glass plate 150 other than the handle portion 151 is printed on the back surface.

  That is, conventionally, the structure of the handle handle employed in this embodiment is generally made of an opaque resin material. However, in this embodiment, in order to take advantage of the novel structure of utilizing the tempered glass plate 150, which is not conventionally used, in the handle portion, the handle portion 151 that covers the front portion of the recess 20 is transparent without being subjected to back surface printing. A structure that expresses a simple texture. According to this structure, since the inside of the concave portion 20 that could not be visually recognized by the user can be observed from the outside, dirt inside can be recognized, so that the cleaning property can be improved. Furthermore, the user can recognize the position of the handle portion 151 from the outside without impairing the texture of the surface.

  On the other hand, the tempered glass plate 150 other than the handle portion 151 can conceal the presence of the vacuum heat insulating material 180 attached to the back surface of the tempered glass plate 150 by applying the back surface coating. Thereby, designability can be improved, maintaining a heat insulation effect.

  Next, the door structure will be further described with reference to FIG. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of the drawer door 50, (a) a longitudinal sectional view of the drawer door 50 shown in FIG. 1, and (b) a longitudinal sectional view of a drawer door 50a according to another application example. .

  First, in FIG. 2A, side frames 163a and 163b are formed by connecting both ends of an upper frame 161 and a lower frame 162, both ends of a tempered glass plate 150 with a vacuum heat insulating material 180 attached to the inner surface, and both ends of an inner wall cover 170, respectively. They are connected via a mounting groove (not shown). The lower frame 162 of the drawer door 50 includes a front attachment groove 162a for attaching the tempered glass plate 150 and the vacuum heat insulating material 180 to the front part of the inner surface, and a rear attachment groove 162b for holding the inner wall cover 170. The upper frame 161 includes a recess 20 formed in a concave shape between the front upper portion and the front front portion, an adhesive surface 161a for bonding a tempered glass plate 150 provided in a front portion below the recess 20, and a rear surface on the inner surface. A rear mounting groove 161b for holding the inner wall cover 170 to be mounted.

  In the drawer door 50 which concerns on this Example, the both ends of the tempered glass board 150 can be supported by a pair of side frame 163a, and the lower end part of the tempered glass board 150 can be supported by the lower frame 162. That is, in this embodiment, since the three sides of the rectangular tempered glass plate 150 can be supported by the frame body 160, the other hand is used as the handle portion 151, and the user holds the handle portion 151. Thus, it is possible to obtain a strength against the stress that pulls forward.

  In addition, in this embodiment, the lower surface of the handle portion 151 is formed as an adhesive surface 161a, and the tempered glass plate 150 and the upper frame 161 are connected with a double-sided tape or an adhesive. It is possible to obtain a strength that further opposes the stress that is pulled forward. Furthermore, since the back surface of the tempered glass plate 150 is also attached to the vacuum heat insulating material 180 supported by the upper frame 161, the strength can be enhanced.

  (B) In this figure, in this application example, an adhesive surface expanding member 164 is attached to the upper frame 161 in order to obtain a strength that further opposes the stress pulled in front of the user. The bonding surface expanding member 164 is continuously attached to the bonding surface 161a and bonded to the tempered glass plate 150. According to this structure, the handle portion 151 that is not supported by the frame body 160 can be supported by a wide adhesive surface.

Further, in the embodiment of FIG. (A), a structure that holds a corner of the upper end portion of the handle portion 151 or has a rounded shape so that the user can hold the handle portion 151 without feeling uncomfortable. Adopted. However, as shown in (b), a structure may be adopted in which a separate grip member 165 is attached to the upper end of the handle 151. According to this structure, even if a user puts a hand on the handle portion 151, it is possible to reduce the hand slipping by the grip portion 165. In addition, by applying various colors to the grip portion 165, it is possible to add a one-point design feature to the surface of the refrigerator 1 covered with the glossy tempered glass plate 150. Can be raised.
(Second embodiment)
Next, the refrigerator 2 according to the second embodiment will be specifically described with reference to FIGS. 3 to 5. Here, FIG. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of the refrigerator according to the second embodiment, wherein (a) is a front view of the refrigerator, (b) is a longitudinal sectional view of the refrigerator, and (c) is a crossing of the door. FIG. FIG. 4 is a part development view of the drawer door. FIG. 5 is a reference diagram at the time of packing a three-dimensional tempered glass plate.

  In FIG. 3, the refrigerator 2 according to the second embodiment is shown by a hatched portion, the layout of the storage room, the basic structure of the opening / closing door 10 and the drawer doors 50 to 53 covering the front part of the storage room. The point that the tempered glass plate 150 is provided with the function of the handle portion has the same structure as that of the first embodiment, and therefore, the same reference numerals are used to omit the redundant description.

  And one of the big characteristics of the refrigerator 2 which concerns on this 2nd Example exists in the point which employ | adopted the curved tempered glass board 150. FIG.

  In the first embodiment, the flat tempered glass plate 150 has a planar design in which the periphery of the side surface is supported by the frame 160. However, in the second embodiment, each of the open / close door 10 and the drawer doors 50 to 53 is provided. A three-dimensional tempered glass plate 150 in which the door wraps around both sides is adopted.

  First, the structure of the door employing the three-dimensional tempered glass plate 150 will be described based on the drawer door 50 shown in FIG. In FIG. 4, the drawer door 50 of this embodiment constitutes a tempered glass plate 150 constituting the front portion of the drawer door 50, an inner wall cover 170 constituting the inside of the drawer door 50, and both side surfaces of the drawer door 50. The side frames 163a and 163b and the upper frame 161 and the lower frame 162 constituting the upper and lower sides of the drawer door 50 constitute a box.

  Since the drawer door 50 is arranged side by side with the drawer door 51, it constitutes the right side of the refrigerator 2. For this reason, the right side of the tempered glass plate 150 is formed in a large round shape and wraps around the side frame 163b. On the other hand, the left side of the tempered glass plate 150 is linearly formed so as to be flat with the drawer door 51, and the upper left side is notched to form a handle portion 151.

  That is, in this embodiment, the handle portion is formed near the center of the refrigerator 2 and both sides thereof are covered with the tempered glass plate 150. Accordingly, the side frame 163b that forms the right side of the drawer door 50 is formed with a smaller depth than the side frame 163a that forms the left side of the drawer door 50.

  The side frame 163b is formed with a mounting groove 166a for supporting the bent tip portion of the tempered glass plate 150 at the front thereof, and with a mounting groove 166c for holding the inner wall cover 170 inside thereof. On the other hand, the side frame 163a is formed with an attachment groove 166b for holding the flat end of the tempered glass plate 150 and an attachment groove 166c for holding the inner wall cover 170.

  Further, the lower frame 162 is formed with a mounting groove 166d for supporting the lower ends of the tempered glass plate 150, the inner wall cover 170, and the side frames 163a and 163b on both sides. Further, the upper frame 161 has a recess 20 formed from the front upper portion on the left side of the upper surface to the front upper portion, and a mounting groove 166d (not shown) similar to the lower frame 162 is formed on the inner side thereof. An adhesive surface 161 a is formed at the front portion below the recess 20.

  Thus, the three-dimensional tempered glass plate 150 employed in the drawer door 50 is supported on both sides by the side frames 163a and 163b, the upper right side is supported by the upper frame 161 by the mounting groove 166d, The left side is supported by the upper frame 161 with a double-sided tape or adhesive via the adhesive surface 161a, and the lower part is supported by the lower frame 162 via the attachment groove 166d. Therefore, since the tempered glass plate 150 is supported by the frame body 160 at the upper and lower sides thereof, it is possible to obtain a strength that can sufficiently resist the stress of the opening operation via the handle portion 151.

  In this embodiment, the other drawer doors 51 to 53 and the opening / closing door 10 are also structured to cover the upper and lower sides of the tempered glass plate 150 with the frame body 160 in the same structure as the drawer door 50.

  Returning to FIG. 3, that is, the drawer door 51 has a symmetrical structure with the drawer door 50. Moreover, since the drawer doors 52 and 53 are not divided into right and left like the drawer doors 50 and 51, the tempered glass plate 150 in which both sides wrap around the side surface is adopted. For this reason, the frame bodies 160 on both sides are constituted by left and right symmetrical side frames 163b. Further, the handle portion 151 is formed by cutting out the central portion while leaving shoulders on both sides of the tempered glass plate 150.

  Furthermore, the open / close door 10 is formed of open / close doors 10a and 10b divided into left and right, similarly to the drawer doors 50 and 51, and thus is formed in a structure symmetrical to the drawer door 50. However, the difference between the opening / closing door 10 and the drawer door 50 is that the handle 151 formed by cutting out the tempered glass plate 150 is not adopted. That is, the handle portion of this embodiment is configured by the handle recess 21 formed on the free end side of the bottom surface of the lower frame 162. The handle recess 21 employs a method in which a finger is inserted into the recess 20 of the drawer doors 50 and 51, and the inserted finger is hooked on the handle recess 21 provided on the bottom surface of the pair of opening / closing doors 10 and pulled forward. doing.

  For this reason, the structure of the pair of opening / closing doors 10 adopts the same structure as the drawer door 50 except that the tempered glass plate 150 without the notched handle portion 151 is adopted.

  Another major feature of the refrigerator 2 according to this embodiment is that a side frame 163a for dividing the tempered glass plate 150 into left and right is formed of a transparent resin material.

  That is, in this embodiment, from the convenience of the storage room, the refrigerator compartment 100 in the upper stage of the refrigerator, the second freezing room 110 below it and the ice making room 120 are divided into left and right doors. The 2nd freezer compartment 130 and vegetable compartment 140 which are arrange | positioned employ | adopt the door which is not divided | segmented into right and left. In addition, the three-dimensional tempered glass plate 150 employed in this embodiment has a shape that wraps around both sides, so that it is desired to adopt a design that flows in the horizontal direction. However, the design restriction here is the central side frame 163a that divides the open / close door 10 and the drawer doors 50 and 51 into left and right. Therefore, in this embodiment, this design restriction can be reduced by forming the side frame 163a from a transparent resin material in accordance with the tempered glass plate 150.

  5, in this embodiment, two types of three-dimensional tempered glass plates 150 are employed. That is, the drawer doors 50 and 51 and the opening / closing door 10 employ (a) the tempered glass plate 150 having the sectional shape shown in the figure, and the drawer doors 52 and 53 employ the sectional shape shown in the figure (e). Is.

  (E) The tempered glass plate 150 shown in the figure has a shape in which both ends have a large round shape and are bent 90 degrees. Therefore, when the tempered glass plate 150 of FIG. (E) is conveyed from the glass factory to the assembly factory, as shown in FIG. For this reason, a conveyance cost becomes high. On the other hand, the tempered glass plate 150 shown in FIG. (A) has a large round shape and is bent 90 degrees, but as shown in FIG. Packing dimensions can be reduced.

  In this embodiment, the tempered glass plate 150 of the large door 10 can be divided into left and right parts to reduce the packaging dimensions as shown in FIG. In addition, the high dimension of the tempered glass plate 150 of the drawer doors 50 and 51 can be reduced. Thereby, conveyance cost can be reduced.

Further, the same effect can be achieved by bending one side as shown in (b), or by forming a large arc as shown in (c). Further, in the case of the tempered glass plate 150 that is bent at both ends, such as the drawer doors 52 and 53, similar effects can be obtained by making the bending angle smaller than 90 degrees as shown in FIG.
(Third embodiment)
Next, the refrigerator 3 according to the third embodiment will be specifically described with reference to FIGS. Here, FIG. 6 is a schematic structural diagram of the refrigerator according to the third embodiment, in which (a) is a front view of the refrigerator, (b) is a longitudinal sectional view of the refrigerator, and (c) is a crossing of the door. FIG. FIG. 7 is a component development view of the drawer door. FIG. 8 is a reference diagram of the state of use.

  In FIG. 6, the refrigerator 3 according to the third embodiment is shown by the hatched portion, the layout of the storage room, the basic structure of the open / close door 10 and the drawer doors 50 to 53 covering the front part of the storage room. The point that the tempered glass plate 150 is provided with the function of the handle is provided with the same structure as that of the second embodiment, and therefore, the same reference numerals are used and redundant description is omitted.

  One of the major features of the refrigerator 3 according to the third embodiment is that the flat tempered glass plate 150 is attached with its width dimension smaller than the door dimension so that the door surfaces remain on both sides of the door. There is a feature in the point.

  In the first embodiment, the periphery of the flat tempered glass plate 150 is supported by the frame 160, but this third embodiment is attached to the doors 10 and 53 to the doors 50 to 53. A structure in which only the upper and lower ends of the tempered glass plate 150 are supported by the frame body 160 and both sides are attached to the inner side of the door ends is adopted. Thereby, since the thickness of the tempered glass plate 150 can be seen by the user at both end portions of the tempered glass plate 150, the texture of the glass plate can be given to the user. Furthermore, since there is no tempered glass plate 150 at the corner of the door, the impact on the tempered glass plate 150 can be reduced by an opening / closing operation or the like.

  First, the structure of the door that makes the tempered glass plate 150 feel the thickness will be described based on the drawer door 50 shown in FIG. In FIG. 7, the drawer door 50 of this embodiment constitutes a tempered glass plate 150 constituting the front portion of the drawer door 50, an inner wall cover 170 constituting the inside of the drawer door 50, and both side surfaces of the drawer door 50. The side frames 163a and 163b and the upper frame 161 and the lower frame 162 constituting the upper and lower sides of the drawer door 50 constitute a box.

  Since this drawer door 50 is arranged side by side with the drawer door 51, it constitutes the right side of the refrigerator 3. For this reason, the flat rectangular tempered glass plate 150 is cut out at the upper left side to form a handle 151. That is, in this embodiment, the handle portion is formed near the center of the refrigerator 3 and both sides thereof are covered with the tempered glass plate 150.

  Further, the lower frame 162 is formed with a mounting groove 166d for supporting the lower ends of the tempered glass plate 150, the inner wall cover 170, and the side frames 163a and 163b on both sides. Further, the upper frame 161 has a recess 20 formed from the front upper portion on the left side of the upper surface to the front upper portion, and a mounting groove 166d (not shown) similar to the lower frame 162 is formed on the inner side thereof. An adhesive surface 161 a is formed at the front portion below the recess 20.

  On the other hand, the front sides of the side frames 163a and 163b are formed to be bent inward, an adhesive surface 161a is formed on the front surface of the bent portion, and a mounting groove 166c for holding the inner wall cover 170 is formed on the inner side. . Note that the upper side of the front side of the side frame 163a is cut away in order to avoid the recess 20 of the upper frame 161.

  Thus, the tempered glass plate 150 employed in the drawer door 50 is supported by the mounting grooves 166d of the upper frame 161 and the lower frame 162 at the upper right side and the entire lower side, and the side frame 163a at both sides and the upper left side. 163b and the adhesive surface 161a of the upper frame 161 are fixed with a double-sided tape or an adhesive. Therefore, since the periphery of the tempered glass plate 150 is supported by the frame body 160, it is possible to obtain a strength that can sufficiently resist the stress of the opening operation via the handle portion 151.

  In this embodiment, the other drawer doors 51 to 53 and the open / close door 10 are also structured to cover the upper and lower sides of the tempered glass plate 150 with a frame body 160 in the same structure as the drawer door 50.

  Returning to FIG. 6, that is, the drawer door 51 has a structure that is symmetrical to the drawer door 50. Further, the left and right sides of the drawer doors 52 and 53 are not divided like the drawer doors 50 and 51. Therefore, the tempered glass plate 150 is formed with a handle portion 151 by cutting out the central portion leaving shoulders on both sides. . The tempered glass plate 150 is supported by the upper frame 161 and the lower frame 162 at both sides of the upper portion and the entire lower portion, and the lower portion and both sides of the handle portion 151 are bonded to the upper frame 161 and the side frames 163a and 163b.

  Furthermore, the open / close door 10 is formed of open / close doors 10a and 10b divided into left and right, similarly to the drawer doors 50 and 51, and thus is formed in a structure symmetrical to the drawer door 50. However, the difference between the opening / closing door 10 and the drawer door 50 is that, similarly to the second embodiment, a system is adopted in which a finger is hooked on the handle recess 21 provided on the bottom surface of the pair of opening / closing doors 10 to open.

In FIG. 8, the opening / closing door 10 and the drawer doors 50 to 53 according to this embodiment are provided with both sides of the tempered glass plate 150 inside both sides of the top surface of the door. Even if the front corners on both sides hit an obstacle, it is possible to reduce that both ends of the tempered glass plate 150 hit the obstacle directly. As described above, the tempered glass plate 150 is a glass material that is strong in strength, but also has a side surface that is vulnerable to impacts, so this problem can be reduced. Moreover, since the thickness of both sides of the tempered glass plate 150 is easy to see from the viewpoint of design, the user can visually recognize the refrigerator 3 using a glass material.
(Fourth embodiment)
In each embodiment, the upper and lower sides of the glass plate are supported by the frame, but the frame is arranged around the back of the glass plate, and the doors are joined together by foam insulation. By comprising, a glass plate can be supported and fixed to the outer surface of a door (illustration omitted). By supporting and fixing the glass plate to the outer surface of the door with the foam heat insulating material in this way, the frame body becomes invisible or difficult to see on the exterior of the refrigerator when viewed from the front side of the door. It is possible to provide a refrigerator excellent in design that makes more use of the continuity of the glass material than the above embodiments without losing.
