The present invention relates to a method for assembling a front open / close evaporator of a kimchi storage, and more particularly, in the case of having a front open / close storage compartment in a kimchi storage, a method of mounting an evaporator mounted in an incase constituting the storage compartment is different from the conventional method. The present invention relates to a method for assembling an evaporator for a front opening / closing storage room of a kimchi storage, by improving the adhesion of the evaporator, thereby improving heat transfer efficiency and improving assembly workability.

As is well known, Kimchi Storage is a home appliance that has a ripening heater that can ripen kimchi, a cooling system that performs cooling to keep kimchi fresh for a long time at low temperature, and a temperature control system that can control the proper storage temperature. Product.

In this way, the Kimchi storage can be stored fresh for a long time by using a cooling system in the kimchi container in the Kimchi container, as well as appropriately aged kimchi through the aging heater according to the user's preference, then the appropriate temperature It is configured to keep the flavor of ripe kimchi at low temperature for a long time.

Therefore, the kimchi storage is a home appliance that can maintain the taste of kimchi and the freshness of kimchi for a long time regardless of the change of season.

Therefore, the use of kimchi storage is gradually increasing as the housewife has recently been spotlighted in the long-term storage of kimchi at home.

Such a kimchi storage can be divided into a top-opening type that the door is hinged attached to the upper surface of the storage compartment according to the door opening and closing method, a drawer type of the door is a drawer form, and a combination of the top open and drawer type.

Here, an example of a kimchi storage having a drawer type storage room among various kimchi storages classified according to the door opening and closing method as described above will be described.

That is, as shown in Figures 1 to 3, a plurality of upper opening and closing storage compartment 200 is usually partitioned on the upper side of the main body 100 of the kimchi storage forming the appearance, the plurality of upper opening and closing storage compartment 200 is opened and closed The two upper doors 300 are hinged to the upper end of the rear surface of the main body 100 so as to be opened and closed upwards.

In addition, a machine room 400 in which a compressor 410 and a condenser (not shown), etc., for a cooling cycle are disposed below the upper opening / closing storage chamber 200 is separately partitioned.

Recently, in addition to the plurality of upper opening and closing storage chamber 200, which is opened and closed by the upper door 300 as described above, a drawer storage compartment 500 is provided which is opened and closed by a drawer door 510 moved to the front of the machine room 400. Kimchi storage is provided.

Here, the drawer-type storage chamber 500 is provided with a detachable shelf 520 for seating and storing a separate kimchi container containing vegetables or kimchi, and the shelf 520 is a drawer-type door 510. It is to be seated on the guide rail 540 fixed to the.

At this time, the evaporator 420 wound around the incase 210 constituting the upper opening / closing storage chamber 200 has a tube-shaped refrigerant pipe (or evaporation tube) through which the refrigerant flows, at regular intervals on the outer circumferential surface of the incase 210. The evaporator 430 installed at the outer side of the incase 510 constituting the drawer type storage chamber 500 is disposed in the form of a depression across the back and side of the incase 510. This is most often the case.

In particular, in the case of the drawer storage compartment 500 as described above, in order to make up for the drawbacks of the cold air transfer and cooling heat transfer efficiency of the drawer storage compartment 500 in a fast time, the material of the incase 510 itself has good thermal conductivity Injecting the material, or as a way to ensure the maximum contact area between the evaporator 430 and the in-case 510, as shown in Figure 3, the bracket 600 made of a high thermal conductive material aluminum sheet Various methods, such as mediating between the evaporator 430 and the incase 510, have been taken.

However, these methods had the advantage that it can improve the cooling heat transfer efficiency to some extent, as shown in the accompanying drawings, a separate hook plate for fixing the bracket 600 made of the evaporator 430 and the aluminum sheet 610 and bolts 620 and the like, because they are fastening them together with the additional assembly process that requires a separate fastening process, only a few places in the fastening between the evaporator 430 and the bracket 600 in the hook plate 610 and bolts 620, etc., so that it is difficult to fasten uniformly in all parts, so there is a disadvantage in that the adhesion is somewhat reduced.

On the other hand, recently, the kimchi storage has been proposed to have a separate wine storage room for storing the wine while having a front door opening and closing door that opens and closes in front of the drawer-type storage room that is opened and closed in the drawer type is added to the kimchi storage.

In the case of a storage compartment having a front opening / closing door such as a wine storage compartment, the incase constituting the wine storage compartment has a shape in which the front is opened, and thus a new method different from the method of installing an evaporator in the incase constituting the upper open / close storage compartment The evaporator must be installed.

In other words, the evaporator having a recess shape is installed on the back and side surfaces of the incase in the same manner as the evaporator installed in the incase constituting the drawer storage compartment.

However, in the manner in which the evaporator 430 is installed in the incase 510 constituting the drawer type storage chamber 500 as described above, the bracket 600 having a high heat conduction heat is evaporated with the evaporator 430. When applying the method of fastening them by using a separate hook plate 610 and bolts 620, etc. while intermediary between the 510, the evaporator 430 with the assembly hassle that the additional fastening process is required. Since there is a problem in that the adhesion between the bracket 600 is somewhat reduced, there is room for improvement that requires a new method of changing the fastening method.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above problems, an object of the present invention is to improve the adhesion of the evaporator by mounting the mounting method of the evaporator mounted on the in-case in the front in a new way different from the conventional one. The present invention provides a method of assembling an evaporator for a front open / close storage chamber of a kimchi storage, which can increase heat transfer efficiency and improve assembly workability.

The present invention for achieving the above object is a method for mounting the evaporator consisting of a refrigerant tube through a bracket made of aluminum sheet over the back and side of the case in the kimchi storage having a storage compartment composed of the in-case opening and closing the front A refrigerant pipe preparation step of manufacturing the refrigerant pipe by bending the refrigerant pipe several times in a zigzag form to arrange the refrigerant pipe forming the evaporator, and placing the laminated vinyl on the bracket, Refrigerant pipe joining step of joining the coolant pipe and the bracket while melting the bonded vinyl by heating the coolant pipe prepared in the refrigerant pipe preparation step thereon, and the bracket on which the coolant pipe is joined to the back of the incase And a bend forming the evaporator by bending according to the incase shape so that it can be attached over the side surface. By providing a jacket and bending step, a front retractable storage-applied evaporator assembly method of kimchi reservoir to the completion of the evaporator, characterized in that it comprises a step of mounting the evaporator mounted on the case of is achieved.
