Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the deformation of a cover member and make gaps unable to be seen from outside by a method wherein the cover member is formed so as to have a pi-shape section having both hollow legs and the inside of the hollow leg is formed so as to be a thick flat plate while the outside of the same is formed so as to be a curved thin plate. CONSTITUTION:A cover member 15, made of vinyl chloride resin, is arranged along the direction of the height of box bodies 1, 2 and is formed integrally so as to have a substantially pi-shape section. The width of a flat part 15a, corresponding to the lateral part of the pi-shape, is formed wider than a gap between the box bodies 1, 2 while both legs 15b of the pi-shape are formed so as to be hollow and a distance between the outer surfaces of the legs is formed longer than said gap. The inside 15c of the leg is formed so as to be a thick flat plate while the outside 15d of the same is formed so as to be a thin plate curved outward. A double-coated adhesive tape 13 is bonded on the outside surface 15d and is adhered to the side surface 5 of the box body 1. Accordingly, the outside 15d of the leg is provided with an elasticity in left-and-right direction and is deformed along the inflation or recess of the opposing side surfaces 5, 6 of the box bodies 1, 2 while the inside 15c is formed so as to be a thick flat plate and, therefore, will never be deformed by the bulging out or the recess of the side surfaces 5, 6.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, in this invention, the cover member inserted into the gap between the refrigerator boxes is formed to have a π-shaped cross section, and the side surface of the π-shape is wider than the width of the gap. Both legs are long and hollow, and the inside is thick and flat, and the outside is curved and thin, so the outside of both legs follows the deformation of the refrigerator box side surface, such as curvature. Even if the inner side is not deformed and the opposite side of the refrigerator box is deformed, the gap is not visible from the front of the refrigerator.
