Description

本発明は、貯蔵室内に出し入れ可能な収納容器を備える冷蔵庫に関する。 The present invention relates to a refrigerator provided with a storage container that can be taken in and out of the storage chamber.

従来の冷蔵庫は特許文献1に開示される。この冷蔵庫は、冷蔵室の上部と下段に入れ替え可能な収納容器が設けられている。収納容器の両側壁にはスライド溝及びストッパ部が突設されている。スライド溝は前後方向に延びて後端が開放されたU字状に形成される。ストッパ部はスライド溝の後端より後方且つ上方に配される。 A conventional refrigerator is disclosed in Patent Document 1. This refrigerator is provided with interchangeable storage containers at the top and bottom of the refrigerator compartment. Slide grooves and stoppers are provided on both side walls of the storage container. The slide groove extends in the front-rear direction and is formed in a U shape with the rear end open. The stopper portion is arranged rearward and above the rear end of the slide groove.

収納容器の両側方には前後方向に延びるガイドレール及び上段ガイド溝が設けられている。ガイドレールはスライド溝の後端から挿入されてスライド溝に沿って摺動する。上段ガイド溝はガイドレールの上方に配されて前端が開放されており、ストッパ部は上段ガイド溝の前端から挿入されて上段ガイド溝に沿って摺動する。また、上段ガイド溝の前端部の上面には凹部が設けられており、凹部にストッパ部が係合する。 Guide rails and upper guide grooves extending in the front-rear direction are provided on both sides of the storage container. The guide rail is inserted from the rear end of the slide groove and slides along the slide groove. The upper guide groove is arranged above the guide rail and the front end is open, and the stopper portion is inserted from the front end of the upper guide groove and slides along the upper guide groove. Further, a recess is provided on the upper surface of the front end portion of the upper guide groove, and the stopper portion engages with the recess.

収納容器を最も引き出したときに、収納容器が前傾してストッパ部が上方に上がり、上段ガイド溝の凹部に係合する。これにより、収納容器の前方への移動を規制して収納容器の落下が防止される。また、収納容器は前傾姿勢で保持される。 When the storage container is pulled out most, the storage container tilts forward and the stopper portion rises upward to engage with the recess of the upper guide groove. This restricts the forward movement of the storage container and prevents the storage container from falling. In addition, the storage container is held in a forward leaning posture.

収納容器を冷蔵室から取り外す場合、収納容器の前部を上方に引き上げて凹部に係合したストッパ部を下方に下げて外しながら上段ガイド溝の最前部を下方からくぐらせながら前方に引き出す。 When removing the storage container from the refrigerator compartment, pull up the front part of the storage container upward and pull out the stopper part engaged with the recess downward while removing it while passing the front part of the upper guide groove from below.

一方、収納容器を装着する場合、収納容器の前部を上方に持ち上げてストッパ部を下方に下げた姿勢で上段ガイド溝の最前部を下方からくぐらせる。その後、収納容器の前部を下方に下げた姿勢でスライド溝の後端にガイドレールの前端を挿入させて収納容器を後方に差し込む。 On the other hand, when the storage container is attached, the front portion of the upper guide groove is passed from below in a posture in which the front portion of the storage container is lifted upward and the stopper portion is lowered downward. After that, the front end of the guide rail is inserted into the rear end of the slide groove with the front portion of the storage container lowered downward, and the storage container is inserted rearward.

補助案内部52は主案内部51の上方に配され、側壁39上に設けた段差によりレール状に形成される。詳細を後述するように、貯氷容器33の着脱時に第3摺動子43が補助案内部52に摺動案内される。 The auxiliary guide portion 52 is arranged above the main guide portion 51, and is formed in a rail shape by a step provided on the side wall 39. As will be described in detail later, the third slider 43 is slidably guided to the auxiliary guide portion 52 when the ice storage container 33 is attached / detached.

補助案内部52の上方には緩衝装置54(第1規制部)が設けられる。緩衝装置54は第3摺動子43が当接して貯氷容器33の前進を規制する。緩衝装置54はアーム部56、捻りバネ55及び支持部57を有している。支持部57は側壁39上に設けられ、アーム部56を前後方向に回動可能に軸支する。アーム部56は支持部57により上部を軸支され、後面に第3摺動子43の当接面56aが形成される。 A shock absorber 54 (first regulation unit) is provided above the auxiliary guide unit 52. The shock absorber 54 is in contact with the third slider 43 to restrict the advance of the ice storage container 33. The shock absorber 54 has an arm portion 56, a torsion spring 55, and a support portion 57. The support portion 57 is provided on the side wall 39 and pivotally supports the arm portion 56 so as to be rotatable in the front-rear direction. The upper part of the arm portion 56 is pivotally supported by the support portion 57, and the contact surface 56a of the third slider 43 is formed on the rear surface.

捻りバネ55は両端をそれぞれ支持部57及びアーム部56に係止され、当接面56aが後方に回動する方向にアーム部56を付勢する。また、側壁39上には捻りバネ55により付勢されたアーム部56を係止する係止部60が設けられる。 Both ends of the torsion spring 55 are locked to the support portion 57 and the arm portion 56, respectively, and the arm portion 56 is urged in the direction in which the contact surface 56a rotates rearward. Further, a locking portion 60 for locking the arm portion 56 urged by the torsion spring 55 is provided on the side wall 39.

図4に示すように、貯氷容器33が後端まで挿入された状態において第1摺動子41が嵌合溝51eに嵌合し、第2摺動子42は嵌合溝51fに嵌合している。また、第3摺動子43は補助案内部52に当接せずに浮いた状態で配されている。 As shown in FIG. 4, the first slider 41 is fitted into the fitting groove 51e and the second slider 42 is fitted into the fitting groove 51f in a state where the ice storage container 33 is inserted to the rear end. ing. Further, the third slider 43 is arranged in a floating state without contacting the auxiliary guide portion 52.

この状態から取手部34aの底部に手指を掛けて貯氷容器33の前部を支持しながら貯氷容器33を前方に引き出す。このとき、嵌合溝51e、51fが第1、第2摺動子41、42を各々摺動案内する。貯氷容器33の前進移動時、貯氷容器33は第1、第2摺動子41、42で支持されており、貯氷容器33の重みによる使用者の手指に掛かる負担を軽減することができる。 From this state, the ice storage container 33 is pulled forward while supporting the front portion of the ice storage container 33 by hanging a finger on the bottom of the handle portion 34a. At this time, the fitting grooves 51e and 51f slide guide the first and second sliders 41 and 42, respectively. When the ice storage container 33 is moved forward, the ice storage container 33 is supported by the first and second sliders 41 and 42, and the burden on the user's fingers due to the weight of the ice storage container 33 can be reduced.

さらに貯氷容器33を前進させると、図5に示すように、第1摺動子41が傾斜面51aを摺動する。このとき、第2摺動子42を支点にして貯氷容器33が前傾姿勢になる。そして、第3摺動子43がアーム部56の当接面56aに後方から当接する。 When the ice storage container 33 is further advanced, the first slider 41 slides on the inclined surface 51a as shown in FIG. At this time, the ice storage container 33 is in a forward leaning posture with the second slider 42 as a fulcrum. Then, the third slider 43 comes into contact with the contact surface 56a of the arm portion 56 from behind.

図6に示すように、貯氷容器33をさらに前進させると、第3摺動子43が緩衝装置54のアーム部56を前方に押圧する。この時、アーム部56に働く後方への付勢力によって貯氷容器33の前方への移動速度が低下する。緩衝装置54によって貯氷容器33が減速するため、貯氷容器33を前方に引き出す際に、第1摺動子41が規制部51cに勢いよく衝突して破損するのを防止することができる。 As shown in FIG. 6, when the ice storage container 33 is further advanced, the third slider 43 presses the arm portion 56 of the shock absorber 54 forward. At this time, the forward moving speed of the ice storage container 33 is reduced by the rearward urging force acting on the arm portion 56. Since the ice storage container 33 is decelerated by the shock absorber 54, it is possible to prevent the first slider 41 from vigorously colliding with the regulation portion 51c and being damaged when the ice storage container 33 is pulled out forward.

貯氷容器33をさらに前進させると、第1摺動子41が規制部51cに当接する。第1摺動子41は規制部51cによって前方への移動が規制されており、貯氷容器33をこれ以上水平方向前方へ引き出すことはできない。このため、貯氷容器33が貯氷室38から外れて落下するのを防止することができる。 When the ice storage container 33 is further advanced, the first slider 41 comes into contact with the regulation portion 51c. The movement of the first slider 41 forward is restricted by the regulating portion 51c, and the ice storage container 33 cannot be pulled out further in the horizontal direction. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the ice storage container 33 from falling off the ice storage chamber 38.

また、貯氷容器33の前部が傾斜面51aに沿って下方に傾いており、氷Mが貯氷容器33の前部に集まって貯氷容器33が引き出される。従って、氷Mを貯氷容器33から取り出し易くなり、利便性が向上する。また、第1摺動子41が規制部51cに当接するときには緩衝装置54によって貯氷容器33が減速している。このため、第1摺動子41が規制部51cに衝突する衝撃によって貯氷容器33内の氷Mが飛散することを防止できる。 Further, the front portion of the ice storage container 33 is inclined downward along the inclined surface 51a, and the ice M gathers at the front portion of the ice storage container 33 to pull out the ice storage container 33. Therefore, the ice M can be easily taken out from the ice storage container 33, and the convenience is improved. Further, when the first slider 41 comes into contact with the regulation portion 51c, the ice storage container 33 is decelerated by the shock absorber 54. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the ice M in the ice storage container 33 from being scattered due to the impact of the first slider 41 colliding with the regulation portion 51c.

なお、規制部51cの前方の角度規制部51dに段差部58が設けられる。このため、使用者が誤って貯氷容器33の前部を持ち上げながら前方に引き出した際に、角度規制部51dに乗り上げた第1摺動子41が段差部58に当接する。これにより、貯氷容器33の前方への移動が規制され、使用者が誤って貯氷容器33を取り外して貯氷容器33が落下するのを防止することができる。 A step portion 58 is provided in the angle regulating portion 51d in front of the regulating portion 51c. Therefore, when the user accidentally lifts the front portion of the ice storage container 33 and pulls it forward, the first slider 41 that rides on the angle regulating portion 51d comes into contact with the step portion 58. As a result, the forward movement of the ice storage container 33 is restricted, and it is possible to prevent the user from accidentally removing the ice storage container 33 and dropping the ice storage container 33.

次に、貯氷容器33を取り外す場合は、図7に示すように、規制部51cに第1摺動子41が当接した貯氷容器33の前部が持ち上げられる。これにより、第2摺動子42を支点にして第1摺動子41が上昇し、第3摺動子43が下方に回動してアーム部56から離れる。これにより、アーム部56は後方に回動して係止部60により係止される。 Next, when the ice storage container 33 is removed, as shown in FIG. 7, the front portion of the ice storage container 33 in which the first slider 41 is in contact with the regulation portion 51c is lifted. As a result, the first slider 41 rises with the second slider 42 as a fulcrum, and the third slider 43 rotates downward to separate from the arm portion 56. As a result, the arm portion 56 rotates rearward and is locked by the locking portion 60.

図8に示すように、貯氷容器33の前部がさらに持ち上げられると、第1摺動子41が角度規制部51dの上方に配され、貯氷容器33が後傾姿勢をとる。この時、第3摺動子43が補助案内部52に当接して貯氷容器33の自重を支持して第2摺動子42は嵌合溝51fから離れる。 As shown in FIG. 8, when the front portion of the ice storage container 33 is further lifted, the first slider 41 is arranged above the angle regulating portion 51d, and the ice storage container 33 takes a backward leaning posture. At this time, the third slider 43 comes into contact with the auxiliary guide portion 52 to support the weight of the ice storage container 33, and the second slider 42 separates from the fitting groove 51f.

そして、図9に示すように、後傾姿勢の貯氷容器33を水平方向前方に引き出すことにより、第3摺動子43が貯氷容器33を支持しながら補助案内部52により摺動案内される。これにより、主案内部51から第1摺動子41が脱離する。続いて、主案内部51から第2摺動子42が脱離し、最後に補助案内部52から第3摺動子43が脱離する。これにより、貯氷容器33が取り出される。 Then, as shown in FIG. 9, by pulling out the ice storage container 33 in the backward tilting posture in the horizontal direction forward, the third slider 43 is slidably guided by the auxiliary guide portion 52 while supporting the ice storage container 33. As a result, the first slider 41 is detached from the main guide portion 51. Subsequently, the second slider 42 is detached from the main guide portion 51, and finally the third slider 43 is detached from the auxiliary guide portion 52. As a result, the ice storage container 33 is taken out.

なお、第3摺動子43が緩衝装置54を通過する際に、主案内部51内に第1摺動子41が配されており、貯氷容器33の後傾角度が制限される。従って、第3摺動子43が緩衝装置54を通過する際に、第1摺動子41又は第2摺動子42を支点にして第3摺動子43が上方に回動するのを防ぎ、第3摺動子43及び緩衝装置54の衝突による破損を防止することができる。 When the third slider 43 passes through the shock absorber 54, the first slider 41 is arranged in the main guide portion 51, and the backward tilt angle of the ice storage container 33 is limited. Therefore, when the third slider 43 passes through the shock absorber 54, the third slider 43 is prevented from rotating upward with the first slider 41 or the second slider 42 as a fulcrum. , It is possible to prevent damage due to collision between the third slider 43 and the shock absorber 54.

次に、貯氷容器33の装着時は、図9に示すように第3摺動子43を補助案内部52に摺動させながら貯氷容器33を後方に差し込む。次に、第2摺動子42を主案内部51に挿入し、貯氷容器33を後傾姿勢にして主案内部51の上面に摺動させる。これにより、貯氷容器33は前後方向に第2摺動子42及び第3摺動子43の二点で支持され、後傾姿勢の傾斜角度が制限される。 Next, when the ice storage container 33 is attached, the ice storage container 33 is inserted rearward while sliding the third slider 43 on the auxiliary guide portion 52 as shown in FIG. Next, the second slider 42 is inserted into the main guide portion 51, and the ice storage container 33 is tilted backward and slid on the upper surface of the main guide portion 51. As a result, the ice storage container 33 is supported in the front-rear direction by two points, the second slider 42 and the third slider 43, and the inclination angle of the backward tilting posture is limited.

なお、主案内部51及び補助案内部52の前端が開口部38aに設けられており、使用者は挿入時に目視で確認しながら、第3摺動子43を主案内部51の前端から挿入した後、第2摺動子42及び第1摺動子41を順に補助案内部の前端に挿入することができる。このため、第1摺動子41、第2摺動子42及び第3摺動子43が主案内部51及び補助案内部52の前端から上下にずれて衝突し、破損するのを防止して貯氷容器33を円滑に装着することができる。 The front ends of the main guide portion 51 and the auxiliary guide portion 52 are provided in the opening 38a, and the user inserts the third slider 43 from the front end of the main guide portion 51 while visually checking at the time of insertion. After that, the second slider 42 and the first slider 41 can be inserted into the front end of the auxiliary guide in order. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the first slider 41, the second slider 42, and the third slider 43 from colliding with each other by shifting vertically from the front ends of the main guide portion 51 and the auxiliary guide portion 52 and being damaged. The ice storage container 33 can be smoothly attached.

貯氷容器33をさらに後進させると、図10に示すように、第1摺動子41が主案内部51に挿入される。このとき、第2摺動子42及び第3摺動子43で支持された貯氷容器33は所定角度以上に後傾しないため、第1摺動子41が持ち上げられて補助案内部52に誤って挿入するのを防ぐことができる。 When the ice storage container 33 is further moved backward, the first slider 41 is inserted into the main guide portion 51 as shown in FIG. At this time, since the ice storage container 33 supported by the second slider 42 and the third slider 43 does not tilt backward more than a predetermined angle, the first slider 41 is lifted and erroneously moved to the auxiliary guide portion 52. You can prevent it from being inserted.

また、第1摺動子41を主案内部51に挿入するために、貯氷容器33の前部を持ち上げておく必要があり、主案内部51内の第2摺動子42が降下し過ぎないように規制される。そして、図11に示すように、第2摺動子42は嵌合溝51eに挿入されずに嵌合溝51fに誘導されて挿入される。 Further, in order to insert the first slider 41 into the main guide portion 51, it is necessary to lift the front portion of the ice storage container 33, and the second slider 42 in the main guide portion 51 does not descend too much. Is regulated. Then, as shown in FIG. 11, the second slider 42 is not inserted into the fitting groove 51e but is guided and inserted into the fitting groove 51f.

この時、第1摺動子41が角度規制部51dの上方まで移動した位置で第2摺動子42は既に嵌合溝51f内に挿入されている。このため、貯氷容器33を更に後傾させると嵌合溝51f内の第2摺動子42と補助案内部52内の第3摺動子43によって貯氷容器33が支持され、所定の角度以上に後傾しないように規制される。したがって、第1摺動子41の嵌合溝51fへの誤挿入を防止できる。 At this time, the second slider 42 is already inserted into the fitting groove 51f at a position where the first slider 41 has moved above the angle regulating portion 51d. Therefore, when the ice storage container 33 is further tilted backward, the ice storage container 33 is supported by the second slider 42 in the fitting groove 51f and the third slider 43 in the auxiliary guide portion 52, and the ice storage container 33 becomes more than a predetermined angle. It is regulated not to lean backwards. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the first slider 41 from being erroneously inserted into the fitting groove 51f.

また、第3摺動子43が緩衝装置54を通過するまでは貯氷容器33の重みにより第3摺動子43が補助案内部52の下面に当接することで貯氷容器33の後部が支持されている。このため、第3摺動子43が補助案内部52の下面から離れて浮く状態になり難い。従って、第3摺動子43が緩衝装置54の下方を通過する際に、第3摺動子43が緩衝装置54に衝突するのを防止できる。 Further, until the third slider 43 passes through the shock absorber 54, the weight of the ice storage container 33 causes the third slider 43 to come into contact with the lower surface of the auxiliary guide portion 52, thereby supporting the rear portion of the ice storage container 33. There is. Therefore, it is difficult for the third slider 43 to float away from the lower surface of the auxiliary guide portion 52. Therefore, when the third slider 43 passes below the shock absorber 54, it is possible to prevent the third slider 43 from colliding with the shock absorber 54.

貯氷容器33をさらに後進させると、図12に示すように、第2摺動子42が嵌合溝51fに嵌合する。このとき、第3摺動子43が緩衝装置54の下方を通過した後であり、貯氷容器33を前傾させて第2摺動子42を支点にして第3摺動子43が上方に回動した場合でも第3摺動子43及び緩衝装置54が衝突し、破損するのを防止することができる。 When the ice storage container 33 is further moved backward, the second slider 42 is fitted into the fitting groove 51f as shown in FIG. At this time, after the third slider 43 has passed below the shock absorber 54, the ice storage container 33 is tilted forward and the third slider 43 is rotated upward with the second slider 42 as a fulcrum. Even if it moves, it is possible to prevent the third slider 43 and the shock absorber 54 from colliding with each other and being damaged.

図13に示すように、貯氷容器33が後傾姿勢を維持した状態でさらに後進すると、前述の通り、貯氷容器33は第2摺動子42及び第3摺動子43によって、所定の角度以上に後傾しないように規制されている。このため、第1摺動子41が嵌合溝51eに挿入されずに嵌合溝51e、51f間の仕切壁59の前端部に当接する。 As shown in FIG. 13, when the ice storage container 33 is further moved backward while maintaining the backward leaning posture, the ice storage container 33 is tilted at a predetermined angle or more by the second slider 42 and the third slider 43 as described above. It is regulated not to lean backwards. Therefore, the first slider 41 is not inserted into the fitting groove 51e and comes into contact with the front end portion of the partition wall 59 between the fitting grooves 51e and 51f.

そして、図14に示すように、貯氷容器33の前部を下方に下げて後傾姿勢を前傾姿勢に戻すことにより、第2摺動子42を支点にして第1摺動子41が下方に回動して傾斜面51aに当接する。また、第3摺動子43は上方に持ち上げられて補助案内部52上から離れ、緩衝装置54の後方に配される。 Then, as shown in FIG. 14, the front portion of the ice storage container 33 is lowered downward to return the backward leaning posture to the forward leaning posture, so that the first slider 41 moves downward with the second slider 42 as a fulcrum. Rotates to abut on the inclined surface 51a. Further, the third slider 43 is lifted upward, separated from the auxiliary guide portion 52, and arranged behind the shock absorber 54.

さらに貯氷容器33を後進させると、嵌合溝51eにより第1摺動子41が摺動案内され、嵌合溝51fにより第2摺動子42が摺動案内される。この時、貯氷容器33が第1摺動子41及び第2摺動子42により前後の2点で支持され、貯氷容器33の姿勢が安定して挿入される。そして、前述の図4に示すように貯氷容器33が後端位置に配される。 When the ice storage container 33 is further moved backward, the first slider 41 is slid-guided by the fitting groove 51e, and the second slider 42 is slid-guided by the fitting groove 51f. At this time, the ice storage container 33 is supported by the first slider 41 and the second slider 42 at two points in the front and rear, and the posture of the ice storage container 33 is stably inserted. Then, as shown in FIG. 4 described above, the ice storage container 33 is arranged at the rear end position.

本実施形態によると、主案内部51及び補助案内部52の前端が開口部38aに設けられており、使用者は挿入時に目視で確認しながら、第3摺動子43を主案内部51の前端から挿入した後、第2摺動子42及び第1摺動子41を順に補助案内部の前端に挿入することができる。このため、第1摺動子41、第2摺動子42及び第3摺動子43が主案内部51及び補助案内部52の前端から上下にずれて衝突し、破損するのを防止して貯氷容器33を円滑に装着することができる。 According to the present embodiment, the front ends of the main guide portion 51 and the auxiliary guide portion 52 are provided in the opening 38a, and the user visually confirms the third slider 43 at the time of insertion of the main guide portion 51. After inserting from the front end, the second slider 42 and the first slider 41 can be inserted into the front end of the auxiliary guide in order. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the first slider 41, the second slider 42, and the third slider 43 from colliding with each other by shifting vertically from the front ends of the main guide portion 51 and the auxiliary guide portion 52 and being damaged. The ice storage container 33 can be smoothly attached.

また、貯氷容器33の着脱時に、後傾姿勢の貯氷容器33の第3摺動子43が緩衝装置54(第1規制部)の下方を通過するように補助案内部52により第3摺動子43を摺動案内するとともに、第3摺動子43が緩衝装置54を通過する際に、第1摺動子41が主案内部51の前端よりも後方に配される。これにより、貯氷容器33の後傾角度が制限される。従って、第1摺動子41又は第2摺動子42を支点にして第3摺動子43が上方に回動するのを防ぐことができる。従って、第3摺動子43及び緩衝装置54の衝突による破損を防止することができる。 Further, when the ice storage container 33 is attached / detached, the auxiliary guide 52 makes the third slider 43 of the ice storage container 33 in the backward tilted posture pass under the shock absorber 54 (first regulation unit). While sliding guide the 43, when the third slider 43 passes through the shock absorber 54, the first slider 41 is arranged behind the front end of the main guide portion 51. This limits the backward tilt angle of the ice storage container 33. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the third slider 43 from rotating upward with the first slider 41 or the second slider 42 as a fulcrum. Therefore, damage due to collision between the third slider 43 and the shock absorber 54 can be prevented.

また、主案内部51の前端下部に形成した段差51bによって、貯氷容器33の着脱時に貯氷容器33の後傾角度を規制する角度規制部51dを設けた。これにより、脱着時に第1摺動子41が角度規制部51dを乗り越える際の貯氷容器33の後傾角度を規制することができる。従って、第3摺動子43が緩衝装置54を通過する際に第3摺動子43が上方に回動して緩衝装置54に衝突するのを防止することができる。 Further, an angle regulating portion 51d for regulating the backward tilt angle of the ice storage container 33 when the ice storage container 33 is attached / detached is provided by the step 51b formed at the lower part of the front end of the main guide portion 51. As a result, the backward tilt angle of the ice storage container 33 when the first slider 41 gets over the angle restricting portion 51d at the time of attachment / detachment can be regulated. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the third slider 43 from rotating upward and colliding with the shock absorber 54 when the third slider 43 passes through the shock absorber 54.

また、第1摺動子41が第2摺動子42よりも下方に配されるとともに、主案内部51が後部で分岐して第1摺動子41が嵌合する嵌合溝51e(第1嵌合溝)と、第2摺動子42が嵌合する嵌合溝51f(第2嵌合溝)とを有し、貯氷容器33の装着時に、第3摺動子43が緩衝装置54(第1規制部)の下方を通過した後に、第2摺動子42が嵌合溝51fに嵌合する。これにより、第2摺動子42は第3摺動子43が緩衝装置54を通過する際に主案内部51内に浮いた状態にある。従って、貯氷容器33の後傾角度を変えても第2摺動子42が嵌合溝51fの下面に当接して支点となり第3摺動子43が上方に回動して緩衝装置54に衝突するのを防止することができる。 Further, the first slider 41 is arranged below the second slider 42, and the main guide portion 51 branches at the rear portion to fit the first slider 41 into the fitting groove 51e (first). 1 fitting groove) and a fitting groove 51f (second fitting groove) into which the second slider 42 is fitted, and when the ice storage container 33 is mounted, the third slider 43 is a shock absorber 54. After passing below the (first regulating portion), the second slider 42 is fitted into the fitting groove 51f. As a result, the second slider 42 is in a state of floating in the main guide portion 51 when the third slider 43 passes through the shock absorber 54. Therefore, even if the backward tilt angle of the ice storage container 33 is changed, the second slider 42 abuts on the lower surface of the fitting groove 51f and serves as a fulcrum, and the third slider 43 rotates upward and collides with the shock absorber 54. It can be prevented from doing so.

また、緩衝装置54によって貯氷容器33の前方への前進を規制するため、前進する貯氷容器33が減速される。このため、第3摺動子43と従来例のような前進の規制部との高速の衝突による第3摺動子43の破損を防止することができる。 Further, since the shock absorber 54 regulates the forward advance of the ice storage container 33, the forward advance ice storage container 33 is decelerated. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the third slider 43 from being damaged due to a high-speed collision between the third slider 43 and the advancing restricting portion as in the conventional example.

また、貯氷容器33のスライド移動時に第3摺動子43の押圧により緩衝装置54が変位した後、第1摺動子41が当接して貯氷容器33の前進を規制する規制部51c(第2規制部)を角度規制部51dの後方に設けた。これにより、第1摺動子41及び規制部51cとの高速の衝突による破損を防止することができる。 Further, after the shock absorber 54 is displaced by the pressing of the third slider 43 when the ice storage container 33 is slid, the first slider 41 comes into contact with the regulation unit 51c (second) that regulates the advance of the ice storage container 33. The regulation unit) is provided behind the angle regulation unit 51d. This makes it possible to prevent damage due to high-speed collision with the first slider 41 and the regulating portion 51c.

また、角度規制部51dに段差部58が形成される。このため、使用者が誤って貯氷容器33の前部を持ち上げながら前方に引き出した際に、角度規制部51dに乗り上げた第1摺動子41が段差部58に当接する。これにより、貯氷容器33の前方への移動が規制され、使用者が誤って貯氷容器33を取り外して貯氷容器33が落下するのを防止することができる。 Further, a step portion 58 is formed on the angle regulating portion 51d. Therefore, when the user accidentally lifts the front portion of the ice storage container 33 and pulls it forward, the first slider 41 that rides on the angle regulating portion 51d comes into contact with the step portion 58. As a result, the forward movement of the ice storage container 33 is restricted, and it is possible to prevent the user from accidentally removing the ice storage container 33 and dropping the ice storage container 33.

<第2実施形態>
図15は第2実施形態の貯氷容器33の側面断面図を示している。なお、第1実施形態と同様の部分には同一符号を付して説明を省略する。第1実施形態に対して第2実施形態は主案内部51が分岐しておらず、主案内部51は嵌合溝51gを有する。また、緩衝装置54(図4参照)に替えて規制部(第1規制部)61が設けられている。
<Second Embodiment>
FIG. 15 shows a side sectional view of the ice storage container 33 of the second embodiment. The same parts as those in the first embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof will be omitted. In the second embodiment with respect to the first embodiment, the main guide portion 51 is not branched, and the main guide portion 51 has a fitting groove 51 g. Further, a regulation unit (first regulation unit) 61 is provided in place of the shock absorber 54 (see FIG. 4).

主案内部51及び補助案内部52は貯氷室38の側壁39に凹設した溝形状に形成される。主案内部51の後部には第1摺動子41及び第2摺動子42が嵌合する嵌合溝51gが設けられる。嵌合溝51gの前方は上方に拡幅され、嵌合溝51gの前端から上方に延びる垂直面51hが形成される。また、主案内部51の前端部には段差51bから成る規制部51c(第2規制部)及び角度規制部51dが形成される。 The main guide portion 51 and the auxiliary guide portion 52 are formed in a groove shape recessed in the side wall 39 of the ice storage chamber 38. A fitting groove 51g into which the first slider 41 and the second slider 42 are fitted is provided at the rear portion of the main guide portion 51. The front of the fitting groove 51g is widened upward, and a vertical surface 51h extending upward from the front end of the fitting groove 51g is formed. Further, a regulation portion 51c (second regulation portion) and an angle regulation portion 51d formed of a step 51b are formed at the front end portion of the main guide portion 51.

補助案内部52は後部が拡幅され、段差によって規制部61が形成される。また、案内部52の上面には連続して前方に上がる傾斜面52aが設けられている。これにより、補助案内部52の前部が上方に徐々に拡幅される。 The rear portion of the auxiliary guide portion 52 is widened, and the regulation portion 61 is formed by the step. Further, an inclined surface 52a that continuously rises forward is provided on the upper surface of the guide portion 52. As a result, the front portion of the auxiliary guide portion 52 is gradually widened upward.

また、貯氷容器33の第1摺動子41及び第2摺動子42は同じ高さに設けられ、第3摺動子43よりも下方に配される。また、第3摺動子43は第2摺動子42を中心にして第2摺動子42の垂直上方から30度以上後方に回動させた位置に配されている。 Further, the first slider 41 and the second slider 42 of the ice storage container 33 are provided at the same height and are arranged below the third slider 43. Further, the third slider 43 is arranged at a position rotated about 30 degrees or more backward from the vertical upper side of the second slider 42 about the second slider 42.

図16に示すように、後端位置の貯氷容器33が水平方向前方に引き出されると、第3摺動子43が規制部61に当接する。これにより、貯氷容器33の前進が規制され、貯氷容器33が貯氷室38から外れて落下することを防止できる。 As shown in FIG. 16, when the ice storage container 33 at the rear end position is pulled out forward in the horizontal direction, the third slider 43 comes into contact with the regulation portion 61. As a result, the advance of the ice storage container 33 is restricted, and the ice storage container 33 can be prevented from falling out of the ice storage chamber 38.

貯氷容器33を取り外す場合は、第3摺動子43が規制部61に当接した状態から図17に示すように、貯氷容器33の前部が持ち上げられる。これにより、第2摺動子42を支点にして第1摺動子41が回動し、角度規制部51dよりも上方に配される。また、第3摺動子43は下方に回動し、補助案内部52の下面に当接するとともに規制部61の下方に配される。 When the ice storage container 33 is removed, the front portion of the ice storage container 33 is lifted from the state where the third slider 43 is in contact with the regulation portion 61 as shown in FIG. As a result, the first slider 41 rotates around the second slider 42 as a fulcrum, and is arranged above the angle regulating portion 51d. Further, the third slider 43 rotates downward, comes into contact with the lower surface of the auxiliary guide portion 52, and is arranged below the regulation portion 61.

このとき、第3摺動子43は第2摺動子42を中心にして第2摺動子42の垂直上方から30度以上後方に回動させた位置に配されているため、第3摺動子43が補助案内部52の下面に当接したとき貯氷容器33の後傾姿勢の傾斜角度が小さく保たれ、貯氷容器33の取り外しの利便性が向上する。 At this time, since the third slider 43 is arranged at a position rotated about 30 degrees or more backward from the vertical upper side of the second slider 42 about the second slider 42, the third slide When the mover 43 comes into contact with the lower surface of the auxiliary guide portion 52, the tilt angle of the backward tilted posture of the ice storage container 33 is kept small, and the convenience of removing the ice storage container 33 is improved.

後傾姿勢の貯氷容器33を水平方向前方へ引き出すと、補助案内部52により第3摺動子43が摺動案内され、嵌合溝51gにより第2摺動子42が摺動案内される。このとき、貯氷容器33が第2摺動子42及び第3摺動子43により前後の2点で支持され、貯氷容器33を円滑に引き出すことができる。 When the ice storage container 33 in the backward tilted posture is pulled out in the horizontal direction forward, the third slider 43 is slid-guided by the auxiliary guide 52, and the second slider 42 is slid-guided by the fitting groove 51 g. At this time, the ice storage container 33 is supported by the second slider 42 and the third slider 43 at two points in the front and rear, and the ice storage container 33 can be smoothly pulled out.

貯氷容器33をさらに水平方向前方へ引き出し、図18に示すように、第3摺動子43が規制部61の下方を通過して第1摺動子41が主案内部51から脱離した後、貯氷容器33の後部を持ち上げると第3摺動子43が傾斜面52aに当接する。 After the ice storage container 33 is further pulled forward in the horizontal direction and the third slider 43 passes below the regulation portion 61 and the first slider 41 is detached from the main guide portion 51 as shown in FIG. When the rear portion of the ice storage container 33 is lifted, the third slider 43 comes into contact with the inclined surface 52a.

なお、第3摺動子43が規制部61を通過する際に、第1摺動子41は主案内部51内に配されており、貯氷容器33の後傾角度が制限されている。 When the third slider 43 passes through the regulation portion 61, the first slider 41 is arranged in the main guide portion 51, and the backward tilt angle of the ice storage container 33 is limited.

この姿勢で第3摺動子43を傾斜面52aに摺動させながら貯氷容器33を引き出すと、第2摺動子42が角度規制部51dよりも上方に移動して第2摺動子42が主案内部51から脱離し、最後に第3摺動子43が補助案内部52から脱離する。これにより、貯氷容器33が貯氷室38から取り外される。傾斜面52aを設けることにより、貯氷容器33を小さく後傾させた姿勢で第2摺動子42を主案内部51から容易に脱離させることができ、利便性が向上する。 When the ice storage container 33 is pulled out while sliding the third slider 43 on the inclined surface 52a in this posture, the second slider 42 moves upward from the angle regulating portion 51d and the second slider 42 moves. It is detached from the main guide portion 51, and finally the third slider 43 is detached from the auxiliary guide portion 52. As a result, the ice storage container 33 is removed from the ice storage chamber 38. By providing the inclined surface 52a, the second slider 42 can be easily detached from the main guide portion 51 in a posture in which the ice storage container 33 is slightly tilted backward, and the convenience is improved.

貯氷容器33を貯氷室38に装着する場合は、図18に示すように、第3摺動子43を傾斜面52aに摺動させて貯氷容器33を水平方向後方に差し込む。そして、第2摺動子42を主案内部51に挿入して第2摺動子42を主案内部51の下面に当接させて貯氷容器33を水平方向後方に更に差し込む。 When the ice storage container 33 is attached to the ice storage chamber 38, as shown in FIG. 18, the third slider 43 is slid on the inclined surface 52a and the ice storage container 33 is inserted rearward in the horizontal direction. Then, the second slider 42 is inserted into the main guide portion 51, the second slider 42 is brought into contact with the lower surface of the main guide portion 51, and the ice storage container 33 is further inserted rearward in the horizontal direction.

図17に示すように、貯氷容器33の前部を持ち上げて第1摺動子41が主案内部51に挿入される高さまで貯氷容器33を後傾させてさらに水平方向後方に差し込む。これにより、貯氷容器33は第3摺動子43が補助案内部52に摺動案内されて第2摺動子42が主案内部51に摺動案内される。そして、第3摺動子43が規制部61の下方を通過した後に第2摺動子42が嵌合溝51gに嵌合する。更に貯氷容器33を水平方向後方に差し込むことにより、第1摺動子41が角度規制部51dの後端上方を通過する。 As shown in FIG. 17, the front portion of the ice storage container 33 is lifted, the ice storage container 33 is tilted backward to a height at which the first slider 41 is inserted into the main guide portion 51, and the ice storage container 33 is further inserted rearward in the horizontal direction. As a result, in the ice storage container 33, the third slider 43 is slid-guided to the auxiliary guide portion 52, and the second slider 42 is slid-guided to the main guide portion 51. Then, after the third slider 43 passes below the regulation portion 61, the second slider 42 is fitted into the fitting groove 51g. Further, by inserting the ice storage container 33 rearward in the horizontal direction, the first slider 41 passes above the rear end of the angle regulating portion 51d.

なお、第2摺動子42は第3摺動子43が規制部61を通過した後に嵌合溝51gに嵌合する。このため、第3摺動子43が規制部61を通過する際に嵌合溝51gに嵌合する第2摺動子42が支点となって第3摺動子43が上方に回動するのを防ぐことができる。これにより、第3摺動子43が規制部61に衝突するのを防止することができる。 The second slider 42 is fitted into the fitting groove 51g after the third slider 43 has passed through the regulation portion 61. Therefore, when the third slider 43 passes through the regulation portion 61, the second slider 42 that fits into the fitting groove 51g serves as a fulcrum, and the third slider 43 rotates upward. Can be prevented. As a result, it is possible to prevent the third slider 43 from colliding with the regulation portion 61.

第1摺動子41が角度規制部51dの後端上方を通過すると、図16に示すように、貯氷容器33の前部が下げられる。これにより、第2摺動子42を支点にして第1摺動子41は下方に回動し、第1摺動子41が主案内部51の下面に当接する。また、第3摺動子43は既に規制部61の下方を通過し、上方に回動して規制部61に面して配される。 When the first slider 41 passes above the rear end of the angle regulating portion 51d, the front portion of the ice storage container 33 is lowered as shown in FIG. As a result, the first slider 41 rotates downward with the second slider 42 as a fulcrum, and the first slider 41 comes into contact with the lower surface of the main guide portion 51. Further, the third slider 43 has already passed below the regulation portion 61, rotates upward, and is arranged facing the regulation portion 61.

さらに貯氷容器33が後進すると、第1摺動子41及び第2摺動子42が嵌合溝51gに摺動案内され、図15に示すように後端位置に配される。 Further, when the ice storage container 33 moves backward, the first slider 41 and the second slider 42 are slidably guided to the fitting groove 51 g and arranged at the rear end position as shown in FIG.

本実施形態によると、第1実施形態と同様の効果を得ることができる。また、第1摺動子41及び第2摺動子42が同じ嵌合溝51gにより摺動案内されるため、主案内部51の構造を簡素化して冷蔵庫1のコストを削減することができる。 According to this embodiment, the same effect as that of the first embodiment can be obtained. Further, since the first slider 41 and the second slider 42 are slidably guided by the same fitting groove 51g, the structure of the main guide portion 51 can be simplified and the cost of the refrigerator 1 can be reduced.

また、傾斜面52aを設けることにより、貯氷容器33の装脱の際、貯氷容器33の後傾姿勢の傾斜角度を小さくして第2摺動子42を主案内部51へ容易に着脱させることができる。 Further, by providing the inclined surface 52a, when the ice storage container 33 is attached or detached, the inclination angle of the backward tilting posture of the ice storage container 33 is reduced so that the second slider 42 can be easily attached to and detached from the main guide portion 51. Can be done.

また、第1摺動子41及び第2摺動子42が同じ高さに配されるとともに、貯氷容器33が収納された状態で、主案内部51は第1摺動子41及び第2摺動子42の両方が嵌合する嵌合溝51gを有し、貯氷容器33の装着時に、第3摺動子43が規制部61の下方を通過した後に、第2摺動子42が嵌合溝51gに嵌合する。 Further, with the first slider 41 and the second slider 42 arranged at the same height and the ice storage container 33 stored in the main guide portion 51, the first slider 41 and the second slide It has a fitting groove 51 g in which both of the movers 42 are fitted, and when the ice storage container 33 is mounted, the second slider 42 is fitted after the third slider 43 has passed below the regulation portion 61. It fits in the groove 51g.

これにより、嵌合溝51gに嵌合する第2摺動子42が支点となって第3摺動子43が上方に回動して規制部61に衝突するのを防止することができる。 As a result, it is possible to prevent the third slider 43 from rotating upward and colliding with the regulation portion 61 with the second slider 42 fitted in the fitting groove 51g as a fulcrum.

本実施形態において、第1実施形態と同様の傾斜面51a(図4参照)を設けてもよい。また、第1実施形態と同様に規制部61の替わりに緩衝装置54を設けることにより、貯氷容器33を引き出す際に減速させて、貯氷容器33内の氷Mが飛散することを防止できる。 In the present embodiment, the same inclined surface 51a (see FIG. 4) as in the first embodiment may be provided. Further, by providing the shock absorber 54 instead of the regulation unit 61 as in the first embodiment, it is possible to prevent the ice M in the ice storage container 33 from scattering by decelerating when the ice storage container 33 is pulled out.

<第3実施形態>
図19は第3実施形態の貯氷容器33の側面断面図を示している。なお、第2実施形態と同様の部分には同一符号を付して説明を省略する。第2実施形態に対して第3実施形態は傾斜面52aが設けられていない。

図20に示すように、後端位置の貯氷容器33が水平方向前方に引き出されると、第3摺動子43が規制部61に当接する。これにより、貯氷容器33の前進が規制され、貯氷容器33が貯氷室38から外れて落下することを防止できる。 As shown in FIG. 20, when the ice storage container 33 at the rear end position is pulled out forward in the horizontal direction, the third slider 43 comes into contact with the regulation portion 61. As a result, the advance of the ice storage container 33 is restricted, and the ice storage container 33 can be prevented from falling out of the ice storage chamber 38.

貯氷容器33を取り外す場合は、第3摺動子43が規制部61に当接した状態から図21に示すように、貯氷容器33の前部が持ち上げられる。これにより、第2摺動子42を支点にして第1摺動子41が回動し、角度規制部51dよりも上方に配される。また、第3摺動子43は下方に回動し、補助案内部52の下面に当接するとともに規制部61の下方に配される。 When the ice storage container 33 is removed, the front portion of the ice storage container 33 is lifted from the state where the third slider 43 is in contact with the regulation portion 61 as shown in FIG. As a result, the first slider 41 rotates around the second slider 42 as a fulcrum, and is arranged above the angle regulating portion 51d. Further, the third slider 43 rotates downward, comes into contact with the lower surface of the auxiliary guide portion 52, and is arranged below the regulation portion 61.

後傾姿勢の貯氷容器33を水平方向前方へ引き出すと、補助案内部52により第3摺動子43が摺動案内され、嵌合溝51gにより第2摺動子42が摺動案内される。このとき、貯氷容器33が第2摺動子42及び第3摺動子43により前後の2点で支持され、貯氷容器33を円滑に引き出すことができる。 When the ice storage container 33 in the backward tilted posture is pulled out in the horizontal direction forward, the third slider 43 is slid-guided by the auxiliary guide 52, and the second slider 42 is slid-guided by the fitting groove 51 g. At this time, the ice storage container 33 is supported by the second slider 42 and the third slider 43 at two points in the front and rear, and the ice storage container 33 can be smoothly pulled out.

貯氷容器33をさらに水平方向前方へ引き出すと、図22に示すように、第3摺動子43が規制部61の下方を通過する。また、第1摺動子41が主案内部51から脱離し、第2摺動子42が規制部51cに当接する。これにより、貯氷容器33の前進が規制される。従って、使用者が誤って貯氷容器33の前部を持ち上げながら引き出した際に、貯氷容器33が貯氷室38から外れて落下することを防止できる。 When the ice storage container 33 is further pulled forward in the horizontal direction, the third slider 43 passes below the regulation portion 61 as shown in FIG. 22. Further, the first slider 41 is detached from the main guide portion 51, and the second slider 42 comes into contact with the regulation portion 51c.
