Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a technique of embedding a refrigerator installed in a system kitchen into cooking furniture in the vicinity.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art The prior art is disclosed in JP-A-61-354.
As disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 61, in the heat exhaust heat specification of the compressor on the back surface of the refrigerator, heat is exhausted by natural convection with a gap provided on the back surface.

Hereinafter, the conventional refrigerator as described above will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6. Reference numeral 1 is a refrigerator main body, and the main body is a freezer compartment door 2 that closes an opening on the front surface.
And a refrigerator compartment door 3 and an outer box 4. An outer box 4 forming an outer shell of the main body 1 is composed of a top plate 5 forming a ceiling surface, a side plate 6, a back plate 7, and a bottom plate 8.

The machine room 9 formed in the lower part of the main body 1 is
The compressor 10 of the cooling cycle, the defrosting water evaporation tray 11, and the drain condenser 12 for evaporating the defrosting water are housed. A main condenser pipe 14 is closely attached to the decorative cover 13 used as a heat radiating plate, and an auxiliary condenser pipe 15 is attached to the side plate 6. Reference numeral 16 is a machine room cover in which the compressor 10 and the like are installed.

However, the decorative cover 13 and the machine room cover 16 are attached to the ridge 17 formed on the back surface of the main body 1 so that the decorative cover 13 and the machine room cover 16 are located on substantially the same plane. Is. At this time, a heat exhaust air passage 18 is formed between the rear plate 7, the decorative cover 13 and the machine room cover 16 as shown in FIG.

In the above structure, even when the back surface of the main body 1 is installed so as to be in close contact with a wall or the like, since the exhaust heat air passage 18 is formed, the drain condenser 12, the air that has exchanged heat with the compressor 10 and The moist air evaporated from the defrosting water evaporation tray 11, the air that has exchanged heat with the main condenser pipe 14, and the air that has exchanged heat with the auxiliary condenser pipe 15 can be released to the outside through the exhaust heat air passage 18. There is.

[0007]

However, in the above-mentioned configuration, although the exhaust heat air passage on the back side of the refrigerator can be secured, the heat radiation from the side plate can be set when installing the system kitchen frame such as cooking furniture. Depending on the method, the space between the side plate and the frame may run out, and unless a sufficient heat radiation space is provided between the side plate and the frame, the heat cannot be exhausted to the outside of the refrigerator and the surrounding cooking furniture It has a thermal effect such as deformation and corrosion.

Therefore, since the refrigerator is a product that is used all the year round, if the heat radiation space on the side is not sufficient, the heat influence on the surrounding cooking furniture will increase day by day, leading to customer dissatisfaction. There were challenges. Further, if the space between the side plate and the frame is not enough, there is a problem that the refrigerator doors collide with each other.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and provides a refrigerator in which a sufficient heat radiation space is secured on the side surface of a refrigerator installed in a system kitchen frame and which does not affect the surrounding cooking furniture. To do.

[0010]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the refrigerator of the present invention has a box-shaped display device and a machine room cover on both sides of the side plate of the refrigerator body in order to provide a heat dissipation space on the side of the refrigerator. Both are projected with the same length.

Further, the projection length of the display device and the machine room cover is reduced on the handle side of the refrigerator door and increased on the hinge side of the door.

[0012]

According to the present invention, with the above-mentioned structure, when the refrigerator is installed in the system kitchen frame, if the heat radiation space on the side of the refrigerator is not secured, the heat influence on the surrounding cooking furniture becomes very large. It is intended to provide a refrigerator in which a heat dissipation space on the side of the refrigerator can be secured so as not to cause customer dissatisfaction with the door hitting.

[0013]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.

The top plate 5 of the body 1 of the refrigerator is provided with a display device 19 capable of freely controlling the strength of cooling, and a machine room cover 1 for accommodating the compressor 10 of the cooling cycle is provided in the lower rear portion.
6 are provided and project in both directions from the side plate 6 of the main body 1. As shown in FIG. 2, the system kitchen frame 2
When the main body 1 is installed at 0, the space A21 between the side plate 6 and the system kitchen frame 20 can be surely secured.

With the above construction, the refrigerator of the present invention can provide a sufficient heat radiation space between the side plate and the frame when the refrigerator body is installed in the system kitchen frame.

Therefore, it is possible to prevent thermal influences such as deformation, discoloration, and corrosion on the peripheral cooking furniture and stored items. Further, even when the refrigerator is taken out from the system kitchen frame for cleaning once, the heat radiation space of the side plate can be surely taken when the customer installs it next time.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the refrigerator main body 1 is provided with a freezer compartment door 2 and a refrigerating compartment door 3 for closing the cold air in the compartment, and the freezing compartment door 2 and the refrigerating compartment door 3 are provided. Constitutes a handle 22 for opening and closing and a hinge 23 for supporting. A space B24 between the side plate 6 and the system kitchen frame 20 is reduced by making the projection length of the display device 19 and the machine room cover 16 from the side plate 6 of the main body 1 smaller on the handle 22 side and larger on the hinge 23 side. Can be reliably obtained at the above ratio.

Therefore, not only a sufficient heat radiation space can be obtained, but also a structure can be taken to prevent the both doors from hitting the system kitchen frame when the both doors are opened.

[0019]

As described above, according to the present invention, even when the refrigerator is installed in the system kitchen frame, the heat dissipation space of the side plate is sufficiently secured, and the ratio of the heat dissipation space on the hinge side is increased. So, heat does not stay in the gap between the side plate and the system kitchen frame, and it does not affect the surrounding cooking furniture.
It is possible to realize a refrigerator that can prevent the door from colliding.
