Description

【考案の詳細な説明】この考案は冷蔵庫の機械室カバーの構成に関するもので
扱い性、清掃性を向上させようとするものである。[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to the structure of a mechanical compartment cover of a refrigerator, and is intended to improve handling and cleaning performance.

一般に冷蔵庫が大形化したとき使用性の観点から高さは
ある程度高くしても奥行寸法をあまり大きくするのは好
ましくない。Generally, when a refrigerator becomes larger, it is not preferable to increase the depth too much from the viewpoint of usability, even if the height is increased to some extent.

これは冷蔵庫の奥の方に貯蔵した食品はとり出しにくい
等使用上の問題が発生するためである。This is because food stored in the back of the refrigerator may be difficult to take out, causing problems in use.

しかし反面奥行が相対的に薄くなると扉のバンドル等に
力を加えたとき冷蔵庫が前に倒れ易くなる。On the other hand, when the depth is relatively thin, the refrigerator tends to fall forward when force is applied to the door bundle, etc.

これを防ぐため前脚を冷蔵庫外箱前面より前方に位置さ
せ前倒れ防止を図っている。To prevent this, the front legs are positioned forward of the front of the refrigerator outer box to prevent it from tipping forward.

従来これらの冷蔵庫では第１図〜第３図に示すように冷
蔵庫の下部機械室前方に全幅にわたり機械室カバー７を
着脱自在に設け、機械室カバー７の内側には冷蔵庫の霜
取水を受は自動的に蒸発させる蒸発皿８を設置していた
。Conventionally, in these refrigerators, as shown in Figs. 1 to 3, a machine compartment cover 7 is removably provided over the entire width in front of the lower machine compartment of the refrigerator, and the inside of the machine compartment cover 7 is designed to receive frost water from the refrigerator. An evaporating dish 8 for automatic evaporation was installed.

この蒸発皿８は下部の機械室に設置されているためほこ
り等で汚れ易く時々清掃の必要がある。Since the evaporating dish 8 is installed in the lower machine room, it is easily contaminated with dust and needs to be cleaned from time to time.

この時は機械室カバー７を外し、蒸発皿８を引き出す必
要がありさらに蒸発皿８の清掃が完了した後も蒸発皿８
を差しこみ、さらに機械室カバー７をとりつけるといっ
た二重手間となっていた。At this time, it is necessary to remove the machine room cover 7 and pull out the evaporating dish 8.
It was a double effort to insert the machine room cover 7 and then attach the machine room cover 7.

この考案はこれらの欠点を除去し、しかも外観は従来と
同じように美観を保てるようにしたもので以下一実施例
について説明する。This invention eliminates these drawbacks and maintains the same aesthetic appearance as the conventional one.One embodiment will be described below.

第４図〜第６図において、１は冷蔵庫本体で冷凍室扉２
、冷蔵室扉３が各々取付けられている。In Figures 4 to 6, 1 is the refrigerator body and the freezer compartment door 2
, and a refrigerator compartment door 3 are respectively attached.

４はバンドルである。4 is a bundle.

５は前脚で冷蔵庫が前に倒れにくくするため、冷蔵庫本
体１より手前両側に取りつけである。The front legs 5 are attached to both sides of the refrigerator body 1 in order to prevent the refrigerator from tipping forward.

６，６′はこれら前脚にネジ止めされた調節ネジで前脚
の高さを調節し、冷蔵庫のガタッキを防止するものであ
る。Numerals 6 and 6' are screws screwed onto these front legs to adjust the height of the front legs to prevent the refrigerator from wobbling.

７，７′は上記前脚付近を覆う機械室カバーで霜取水を
受は蒸発させる蒸発皿８の手前に１体に取付けられた機
械室カバー７″の部分を除く左右にネジ等（図示せず）
で個定されている。7 and 7' are machine room covers that cover the vicinity of the front legs, and there are screws, etc. (not shown) on the left and right sides except for the machine room cover 7'', which is installed in front of the evaporation plate 8 that receives and evaporates frost water. )
It is determined individually.

７．７’、７”は連続同一模様の外観をしており、１体
のようにみせている。7.7' and 7'' have the appearance of continuous identical patterns, making them look like one body.

９は冷媒圧縮機である。9 is a refrigerant compressor.

この考案は以上に述べたように構成したから蒸発皿を清
掃しようとする場合機械室カバ−７″部をもち引き出せ
ば蒸発皿が出てくるため非常に簡単であり、しかも外観
は１体のように見え美観的にもすぐれている。Since this invention is constructed as described above, when cleaning the evaporating dish, the evaporating dish comes out by holding the 7'' part of the machine room cover and pulling it out, making it very easy to clean. It looks and is aesthetically pleasing.

また機械室カバー７．７′も７″と一体にするとともに
蒸発皿とすべて一体化してもほぼ上記と同様の効果が得
られるものである。Furthermore, even if the machine room cover 7.7' is integrated with 7'' and the evaporating dish, substantially the same effect as described above can be obtained.
