The evaporator in the circulation circuit absorbs the heat from the outside to keep the inside frozen and refrigerated.
이러한 종래 냉장고에 있어 냉장실로 냉기를 공급하는 구조 및 냉기 공급과정을 첨부된 도면을 참조하여 설명하면 다음과 같다.Referring to the accompanying drawings, a structure and a cold air supply process for supplying cold air to the refrigerating chamber in the conventional refrigerator are as follows.
도 1은 종래 냉장고의 내부구조를 보인 정면도이고, 도 2는 도 1의 냉장고의 내부구조를 보인 측면도로써, 도 1 및 도 2에 도시한 바와 같이 냉장고는 본체(1)의 일정부위에 장착된 분리벽(16)에 의해 냉동실(10)과 냉장실(20)로 나뉘어져 구획되고, 그 냉기 공급구조를 살펴보면, 저온 저압의 냉매가 내부를 통과하는 증발기(3)에서 열 교환 되어 냉각된 냉기의 일부는 송풍팬(13)에 의해 강제 송풍되어 쉬라우드(Shroud)(14)를 거쳐 상기 냉동실(10)로 공급되고, 나머지 냉기의 일부는 상기 쉬라우드(14)를 거쳐 자유낙하 하여 덕트(15)를 통하여 상기 냉장실(20)측으로 안내된다.1 is a front view illustrating an internal structure of a conventional refrigerator, and FIG. 2 is a side view illustrating an internal structure of the refrigerator of FIG. 1, and as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the refrigerator is mounted at a predetermined portion of the main body 1. Divided into the freezing compartment 10 and the refrigerating compartment 20 by the partition wall 16, and looks at the cold air supply structure, a portion of the cold air cooled by heat exchange in the evaporator (3) through which the low-temperature low-pressure refrigerant passes through Is forcedly blown by the blower fan 13 and supplied to the freezing chamber 10 through the shroud 14, and a part of the remaining cold air falls freely through the shroud 14, thereby allowing the duct 15 It is guided to the refrigerating chamber 20 side through.

상기와 같이 구성된 냉장고에 전원을 공급시키면 상기 냉장고의 내부에 장착되어 상기 냉동사이클을 구성하는 압축기가 구동되어 저온, 저압의 기체냉매를 고온, 고압의 기체냉매로 압축시키고 이 압축된 고온, 고압의 기체냉매는 응축기를 지나면서 고온, 고압의 액체냉매로 응축되어진다.When power is supplied to the refrigerator configured as described above, a compressor constituting the refrigeration cycle is driven inside the refrigerator to compress a low-temperature, low-pressure gas refrigerant into a high-temperature, high-pressure gas refrigerant. Gas refrigerant is condensed into a high-temperature, high-pressure liquid refrigerant passing through the condenser.
상기 응축된 고온, 고압의 액체냉매는 팽창밸브를 거치면서 저온, 저압의 액체냉매로 변환되고, 상기 저온, 저압의 액체냉매는 상기 증발기(3)를 지나면서 저온, 저압의 기체냉매로 변환되면서 증발되고, 상기 증발기(3)의 증발작용에 의해 주위의 공기가 열 교환되어 주변의 공기를 냉각시키므로 냉기가 발생되는 것이다.The condensed high temperature and high pressure liquid refrigerant is converted into a low temperature and low pressure liquid refrigerant through an expansion valve, and the low temperature and low pressure liquid refrigerant is converted into a low temperature and low pressure gas refrigerant while passing through the evaporator (3). By evaporation, the surrounding air is heat exchanged by the evaporation of the evaporator 3 to cool the surrounding air, thereby generating cold air.
이와 같이 발생된 냉기의 일부는 본체(1)의 후방에 설치된 송풍팬(13)의 회전에 따라 강제 송풍되고 상기 냉동실 토출구(12a)를 통해 상기 냉동실(10)로 공급되어 일정 온도까지 냉각시켜 음식물이 냉동되도록 하고, 나머지 냉기의 일부는 상기 쉬라우드(14)에 안내되고 자유낙하 하여 상기 배면덕트(23b), 좌측면 덕트(24b), 및 우측면 덕트(25b)를 통해 상기 냉장실(20)의 벽면으로 안내된 후, 상기 배면덕트(23b), 좌측면 덕트(24b), 및 우측면 덕트(25b)를 통해 상기 냉장실(20) 내부에 냉기가 토출된다.Part of the cold air generated as described above is forcedly blown according to the rotation of the blower fan 13 installed at the rear of the main body 1 and supplied to the freezer compartment 10 through the freezer compartment outlet 12a to cool down to a predetermined temperature. And a portion of the remaining cold air is guided to the shroud 14 and free-falls, so that the refrigerating chamber 20 of the refrigerating chamber 20 is passed through the back duct 23b, the left side duct 24b, and the right side duct 25b. After being guided to the wall surface, cold air is discharged into the refrigerating chamber 20 through the rear duct 23b, the left side duct 24b, and the right side duct 25b.
토출된 냉기는 상기 냉장실(20)의 내부에 보관된 음식물을 적정 온도로 냉각한 후, 상기 냉장실(20)의 상측면에 형성된 상측면 흡입구(26a)와 배면 하단에 형성된 배면 흡입구(27a)를 통해 흡입되고, 흡입된 냉기는 상기 상측면 냉기흡입유로(26)와 배면 냉기흡입유로(27)를 통해 상기 냉각실(2)로 다시 유입되어 상기 증발기(3)에 의해 재 냉각된다.The discharged cold air cools the food stored in the refrigerating compartment 20 to an appropriate temperature, and then the upper suction port 26a formed on the upper side of the refrigerating compartment 20 and the rear suction port 27a formed on the lower bottom of the refrigerating compartment 20. The sucked cold air is introduced into the cooling chamber 2 again through the upper side cold air suction passage 26 and the rear cold air suction passage 27 and recooled by the evaporator 3.
