And a tip end portion of each of them are opposed to each other with a predetermined gap. These both doors 12 and 13 have outer panels 12a and 13a and inner panels 12b and 13b.
It is made by filling the inside of a box made of
Sealing members 12c and 13c are fixed to the outer peripheral edge portions of the inner surfaces of the inner panels 12b and 13b in a frame shape. When the doors 12 and 13 are closed, the seal members 12c and 13c are the outer peripheral edge portions 11c of the front opening 11a of the storage body 11,
And the front surface of the closing member 16 which will be described later, the doors 1
The front opening 11a of the cabinet body 11 is airtightly closed when closing the boxes 2 and 13. The closing member 16 and the drive mechanism 20 for rotating the closing member 16 are assembled on a flat mounting bracket 12d provided on the inner surface side of the inner panel 12b at the tip of the first door 12.

The closing member 16 is a columnar member having a predetermined width and thickness formed by filling a heat insulating member in the inside of a rectangular cylinder, and is compared with the vertical length of the front opening 11a of the cabinet body 11. It has a slightly shorter length. In the closing member 16, a bracket 16a having projecting arm portions at the upper and lower ends of the front portion of the right side surface facing the front surface.
Is provided. On the other hand, the inner plate 12b at the tip of the first door 12 is provided with brackets 12e having protruding arm portions at the upper and lower ends thereof. Closure member 1
6 supports the protruding arm portions of the upper and lower brackets 16a in a state of abutting the protruding arm portions of the upper and lower brackets 12e of the first door 12 so as to be rotatable inward and outward via support pins.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the drive mechanism 20 includes a solenoid 21 and three links 22, 23, 24.
And a tension spring 25. The first link 22 is connected to the tip of the core 21a of the solenoid 21, and the tension spring 25 is
The solenoid 22 is interposed between the tip of the link 22 and the retainer 12f protruding from the mounting bracket 12d.
The core 21a is urged to be pulled out. One end of the second link 23 is rotatably connected to an intermediate portion of the first link 22, and one end of the third link 24 is connected to the second link 2.
The other end of 3 is rotatably connected. Second link 23
The connecting portion on the other end side is formed in a long hole.

In such a connecting structure, the second link 23
Is rotatably supported by a support bracket 12g protruding from the mounting bracket 12d at its intermediate portion, and both ends thereof rotate about the support portion as a rotation center. The third link 24 has an elongated hole 24a extending in the longitudinal direction at the middle portion thereof, and the other end thereof is rotatably connected to a support bracket 16c provided on the rear surface 16b of the closing member 16.
The connecting portion of the third link 24 is formed in a long hole. In addition, the support bracket 1 provided on the mounting bracket 12d
A guide pin 12i is projectingly provided on 2h. The guide pin 12i penetrates the long hole 24a of the third link 24 and regulates the third link 24 so as to linearly move in the longitudinal direction. There is.

Energization of the solenoid 21 is controlled by the control circuit shown in FIG. In the same circuit, the first switch S
W1 and the second switch SW2 are door switches provided on the first door 12 and the second door 13 and are connected in series to the relay X. When the doors 12 and 13 are open, the switches SW1 and The switch SW2 is opened to make the relay X non-energized and the relay contact X1 is closed to energize the solenoid 21. Therefore, the solenoid 21 is in a non-energized state when both doors 12 and 13 are closed, and is energized when either of the doors 12 and 13 is opened to resist the core 21a against the tension spring 25. Function to pull in.

A recess 16d is formed at the upper end of the closing member 16 at the corner between the front surface and the left side surface thereof, while the front opening 11a of the storage body 11 has a substantially upper edge. A protrusion 11d is formed in the center so as to face the recess 16d. The recess 16d and the protrusion 11d are fitted to each other, and in the fitted state, they function as a stopper that restricts the further outward rotation of the closing member 16.

In the double-door type refrigerator A thus constructed, the first and second switches SW1 and SW2 are closed and the solenoid 21 is closed when the first and second doors 12 and 13 are closed. Not energized, Sonoid 21
The core 21a is pulled out by the tension spring 25, and the third link 24 is pushed out to the maximum extent. For this reason, the closing member 16 is located at the pivoted position which is pivoted outward, and protrudes outward from the front end by a predetermined amount along the inner surface of the inner panel 12b of the first door 12 and the front surface of the doors 12 and 13. The seal members 12c and 13c provided on the inner panels 12b and 13b are in contact with each other. As a result, the vertical gap formed between the front end portions of the doors 12 and 13 in the closed state is hermetically sealed.

In this state, when the first door 12 is opened, the first switch SW1 is opened, the relay X is de-energized, the relay contact X1 is closed, and the solenoid 21 is energized. As a result, the core 21a of the solenoid 21 is pulled in against the tension spring 25, and the second link 23
Is rotated to retract the third link 24. As a result, the closing member 16 rotates inward and its front surface is moved toward the first door 1
Move from the tip of 2 to the rear. Further, when the second door 13 is opened with the first door 12 closed, the second switch SW2 opens, and in this case also, the relay X becomes non-energized to close the relay contact X1 and close the solenoid 21. Energize. As a result, the core 21a of the solenoid 21 is pulled in against the tension spring 25, and the second link 2
3 is rotated to retract the third link 24. As a result, the closing member 16 rotates inward to move the front surface 16 a thereof from the tip of the first door 12 to the rear.

In this way, in the refrigerator A, when either of the doors 12 and 13 is opened, the closing member 16 rotates inward and retracts from the tip of the first door 12. Therefore, even when the second door 13 is opened with the first door 12 closed, the closing member 16 rotates inward and retracts from the tip of the first door 12, so that only the second door 13 is opened. When opened, the closing member 16 does not project outward from the tip of the first door 12 and is exposed, and the front opening width of the case body 11 is the case body when only the first door 12 is opened. 11 is the same as the front opening width, and the first door 1
Items that can be taken in and out when only 2 is opened can be taken in and out even when only the second door 13 is opened.
It is possible to eliminate the inconvenience of the conventional refrigerator of this type in which some items cannot be taken in and out when only the second door 13 is opened.

Further, the closing member 16 airtightly closes the gaps between the doors 12 and 13 which face each other only when the doors 12 and 13 are closed, and prevents the leakage of cold air from the inside of the cabinet 11. Since the second door 13 does not project outward from the tip of the first door 12 and is exposed when the second door 13 is opened, the inconvenience for taking in and out of the above-described item is eliminated. Of course, it is possible to eliminate the discomfort to the user caused by the exposure of the closing member 16 when unnecessary.

Further, in the refrigerator A, as the spring member constituting the drive mechanism 20, a tension spring 25 for urging the closing member 16 to always rotate outward is employed, and the solenoid 21 is provided with both doors 12. , 13 is opened to energize the closing member 16 against the tension spring 25 so as to rotate inward. Therefore, at the time of failure such as power failure or disconnection, the closing member 16 is always in the outwardly rotated position,
The gap between the closed ends of both doors 12 and 13 is hermetically sealed so that the cold air in the storage body 11 is not leaked to the outside, and the interior of the storage body 11 is cooled to a predetermined level even in the event of such an abnormality. Can be kept in the atmosphere for a long time. Furthermore,
In normal times, the energization time to the solenoid 21 can be shortened, the life of the solenoid 21 can be improved, and even in the event of a power failure or failure, foreign matter can be prevented from entering the inside of the cabinet body 11 through the gap. it can.

Further, in the refrigerator A, the recess 1 formed at the corner between the front surface and the left side surface of the upper end of the closing member 16
6d and the projection 11d formed in the substantially central portion of the upper edge of the front opening 11a of the cabinet body 11 constitute a stopper that restricts the outward rotation of the closing member 16. Therefore, in the refrigerator A, the closing member 16
Is reliably positioned outwardly, and the front surface of the closing member 16 can be reliably brought into contact with the sealing members 12c and 13c of both doors 12 and 13 in the closed state without giving a large impact. As a result, the airtightness of the gap between the doors 12 and 13 can be further enhanced. Furthermore,
In the refrigerator of the type in which the seal members 12c and 13c of the both doors 12 and 13 and the front surface of the closing member 16 are adsorbed and held by the action of a magnet or the like, the both doors 12 and 12 are provided by the stopper function of the protrusion 11d and the recess 16d. When one of the doors 13 is opened, the other door is not opened at the same time.

The above operations are the same for both the left and right doors 14 and 15 for opening and closing the lower front opening 11b, and have the same effect.

FIG. 6 shows a double door type refrigerator B according to the second embodiment of the present invention. The refrigerator B has the same structure as the refrigerator A of the first embodiment except for the support structure of the closing member 16 and the drive mechanism 30, and therefore the refrigerator B has the same structure as the refrigerator A of the first embodiment. The same reference numerals are given to the members and the same components, and the detailed description thereof will be omitted. Hereinafter, the support structure of the drive mechanism 30 and the closing member 16 will be described in detail.

The drive mechanism 30 is a mechanical drive mechanism, and as shown in FIGS. 6 to 9, it is composed of a cam 31 and three links 32, 33, 34, and the storage body 1
It is assembled to the lower surface of a mounting bracket 35 provided on the ceiling surface or the bottom surface of the inside 1. The cam 31 has a substantially half-moon shape, one side surface is formed on the cam surface 31a, and the base end portion thereof is rotatably supported by the mounting bracket 35 via the support pin 36a. One end of the first link 32 is rotatably connected to the cam 31 via a support pin 36b, and the other end is rotatably connected to a long hole 33a at one end of the second link 33. The support pin 36b is located deviated from the support pin 36a, which is the center of rotation of the cam 31. The cam 31 has its cam surface 31
a is located on the side of the closing member 16,
When the first link 32 moves forward to one end side, the cam 31 rotates outward to move the cam surface 31a forward to a position where it can abut the closing member 16, and when the link 32 moves backward to the other end side. The cam 31 is rotated inward to close the cam surface 31a.
6 is retracted to a position where it cannot abut.

The second link 33 is rotatably supported by the mounting bracket 35 at its central portion in the longitudinal direction via a support pin 36c, and the third link is provided at a long hole 33b at the other end.
It is rotatably connected to one end of the link 34. The other end of the third link 34 passes through the front end of the mounting bracket 35 and projects from the front opening 11 a of the cabinet body 11. In the third link 34, the other end is the storage body 11
The front door 11a of the second door 1 can be retracted in the front-back direction and the second door 1
It faces the seal member 13c of No. 3.

On the other hand, in the support portion of the closing member 16, as shown in FIG. 10, the torsion spring 18a is fitted to the support pin 16e for supporting both the brackets 12e and 16a, so that the closing member 16 is always inward. I am biased. A magnet 18b is fixed to the bracket 12e so as to face the facing surface of the bracket 16a.
The magnet 18b attracts the bracket 16a to fix the closing member 16 to the first door 12 side when the closing member 16 is in the inward rotating position.

In the refrigerator B having the drive mechanism 30 constructed as described above, when the second door 13 is opened, the third link 34 of the drive mechanism 30 causes the front opening 11a of the cabinet body 11 to open.
The third link 34 is pushed by the door 13 and retracts by closing the second door 13 by projecting a predetermined amount from the front side to the front side. When the third link 34 retreats, the second link 33 rotates about the support pin 36c to move the first link 32 forward, and the cam 31 rotates outward about the support pin 36a to move the cam 31 toward the outside. The cam surface 31a is moved to a position where the closing member 16 in the inward rotating position can contact.

Therefore, the second door is closed with the first door 12 closed.
When the door 13 is closed, the cam 31 rotates outward in accordance with the closing operation of the second door 13 and abuts on the closing member 16 in the inward rotating position.
Is pressed to rotate outwards against the torsion spring 18a, and the front surface is moved along the inner surface of the inner plate 12b of the first door 12 so that the front surface thereof is the sealing member 12 of both doors 12, 13.
Contact c and 13c. Further, when closing the first door 12 with the second door 13 closed, the cam 31 is positioned at the outward rotation position where it can abut the closing member 16 by the closing operation of the second door 13. Therefore, when the first door 12 is closed, the closing member 1 is accompanied by the closing operation of the door 12.
6 contacts the cam surface 31a of the cam 31 and rotates while sliding outward to follow the inner surface of the inner plate 12b of the first door 12, and when the closing of the first door 12 is completed, the front surface of the door 6 is closed by both doors. 1
The seal members 12c and 13c of 2 and 13 are brought into contact with each other. As a result, in a state in which both the doors 12 and 13 are closed regardless of the order in which the both doors 12 and 13 are closed, the closing member 16 rotates outward and the front surface thereof is the sealing member of the both doors 12 and 13. 12c and 13c are brought into contact with each other to hermetically seal the gap between the front ends of both doors 12 and 13.

On the other hand, when the second door 13 is opened while the first door 12 is closed, the third link 34 is used as the second door 1.
The pushing state from 3 is released to be in a free state, and similarly, the cam 31 is also in a free state. Therefore, the closing member 16 rotates itself inward while rotating the cam 31 inward by the biasing force of the torsion spring 18a, and the first door 1
Retreat from the tip of 2. In this state, the third link 34
Projects forward from the front opening 11a of the cabinet body 11 for a predetermined length. When opening the first door 12 with the second door 13 closed, the closing member 16 contacts the cam surface 31a of the cam 31 with the opening operation of the first door 12 and slides, It is rotated inward by the urging force of the torsion spring 18a, separated, and retracted from the tip of the first door 12.

Thus, in the refrigerator B, the first
Similar to the refrigerator A of the embodiment, the closing member 16 includes both doors 12 and 1.
Only when 3 is closed, the gaps between the two doors 12 and 13 that face each other are airtightly closed to prevent the cool air from leaking from the inside of the cabinet body 11, and when the second door 13 is opened, the first Since it does not project outward from the tip of the door 12 and is exposed, the inconvenience of taking in and out of an item is eliminated, and the discomfort to the user due to the exposure of the closing member 16 when unnecessary can be eliminated. . Further, since the drive mechanism 30 is a mechanical type, it does not require the use of electric parts, so that the cost can be reduced as compared with the one provided with the electric drive mechanism 20, and
The turning operation of the closing member 16 can be performed even during a power failure,
Moreover, no electrical failure of the drive mechanism occurs.
