Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a refrigerated showcase equipped with a plate-shaped cooler, and particularly aims to improve the lighting effect by effectively utilizing the cooler.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Reference numeral 1 denotes a refrigerated showcase whose main body is composed of a storage section 3 and a mechanical section 4, which are protected by a heat insulating wall 2. The storage section is a storage chamber 5.
It has a sliding type transparent door body 6 on the front side and a rotating type heat insulating door body 7 on the rear side, so that products can be taken in and out from either the front or back side. Translucent shade plate 8. - A light source 10 such as a fluorescent lamp surrounded by 9 is arranged to illuminate the inside and outside of the storage room 5.

The mechanical section includes a compressor 11 that constitutes a refrigeration cycle together with a cooler to be described later. A condenser 12 is provided.

Reference numeral 13 denotes a plate-shaped cooler formed by the so-called roll bonding method and bent into an inverted U shape.The upper wall 13a is sloped low from the front edge to the rear edge so that the light from the light source is directed toward the ground. It is provided in the upper part of the storage chamber 5 so that the light is reflected downward from the inner surface of the wall 13H.

The inner surface of this cooler is coated with white paint or treated with alumite to provide good lighting reflection.

In addition, 14 is a shelf. In this way, the present invention is based on the plate cooler 13.
Since the light from the light source body 10 can be reflected on the inner surface of the storage room 5 to illuminate the entire inside of the storage room 5, it is possible to eliminate shadows that appear behind the stored products, and also brighten the back of the products, improving the display effect. In addition, due to the downward slope of the upper wall 13a of the cooler 13, the cool air that flows through the rear, bottom, front, and upper surfaces of the storage chamber 5 and undergoes natural convection can be quickly circulated.
In addition to the backward downward slope of 3a, the reflectively treated inner surface allows drainage adhering to the inner surface of the upper wall 13a to be disposed of without dripping into the storage chamber 5.
3 itself can be used as a reflection plate, a wind direction plate, and a dew treatment plate.

As mentioned above, the present invention includes an inverted U-shaped plate cooler with a light source surrounded by a translucent shade plate on at least the rear surface, which is disposed at the upper front of the storage chamber, and whose inner surface is treated to be reflective. The plate-shaped cooler reflects the light from the light source and is stored at the top of the storage chamber. They can be used as a reflector to improve indoor thermal effects, a wind direction plate to promote natural convection of cold air in the storage room, and a dew guide plate to quickly guide the dew that adheres to the product backwards without dripping onto the products in the storage room. can be used to simplify the structure of the storage room.
