Description

An installation structure of an evaporation water removal device of a refrigerator is disclosed.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an installation structure of an evaporation water removing device for a refrigerator, and more particularly, to an installation structure of an evaporation water removing device for a refrigerator which can remove evaporation water in a plurality of evaporation configurations.

Generally, a refrigerator is connected to a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve, and an evaporator by a circulation line through which a heating medium is circulated, so that the refrigerant generated by the evaporator lowers the temperature of the refrigerant and stores the food stored therein.

Such a refrigerator generally has a low temperature on the side of the evaporator, and the temperature is increased on the heat exchanger line of the evaporator due to the temperature difference with the outside air. This causes the efficiency of the apparatus to be lowered, and the defrosting operation is periodically performed .

A conventional example for treating evaporative water such as defrost water or condensed water generated on the evaporator side of the refrigerator will be described with reference to FIG.

1, a refrigerator 10 is typically provided to open and close a door 12 on a front surface of a main body 11 having an internal space formed thereon, and a compressor 13, A condenser 14 may be installed and an evaporator 15 may be installed on one side of the main body 11 so as to supply cold air by a blowing fan 17 or the like.

In this refrigerator 10, a discharge pipe 18 extending downward is connected to the rear side of the main body 11 to process the evaporated water generated at the evaporator 15 side, A separate receptacle for receiving the evaporated water discharged from the discharge pipe 18 is provided at one side of the main body 11 and the evaporated water is evaporated in the receptacle It is equipped with a built-in heater.

However, such a conventional evaporation water treatment (removal) device has a problem that it is difficult to apply evaporation water to the refrigerator 10 used in the room when the evaporation water is discharged to the outside through the discharge pipe 18, In the case of evaporation, power consumed to operate the heater is added to waste energy.

In some cases, some of the hot gas lines are provided so as to pass through the receptacle so as to evaporate the evaporated water by the hot gas supplied from the compressor 13 in order to remove the evaporated water. In such a case, There is a limitation in rapidly heating and evaporating the cold evaporated water only by the hot gas temperature of the hot gas line.

1 is a partial cross-sectional view of a refrigerator according to a conventional example;
2 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the present invention.
3 is a cross-sectional view according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description. Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

2 and 3 illustrate a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the evaporation water removing device 30 of the present invention comprises a main body 11 of a refrigerator 10, And the evaporation water generated from the evaporator 15 is heated and evaporated to be removed. The evaporation water is evaporated to accommodate the evaporation water, which is installed on the back side of the main body 11, A hot gas line 21 through which a hot gas of a predetermined temperature or more is passed and an absorption member 32 adapted to absorb evaporation water are provided in the evaporation vessel 31, Is provided with an air duct 33 for guiding high-temperature air.

The compressor 13 and the condenser 14 are located outside the upper end of the main body 11 of the refrigerator 10. The compressor 13 and the condenser 14 are installed on the base panel 22 And the condenser 14 is positioned such that the condenser fan 16 installed for heat dissipation is blown toward the compressor 13 side.

The shape and position of the evaporation vessel 31 are not limited. However, the evaporation vessel 31 is provided in the shape of a rectangular tube and is disposed on the rear surface of the body 11 of the jug 10, The hot gas line 21 is contained in the evaporation vessel 31 and the hot gas line 21 is installed in the evaporator vessel 31 by the hot gas line 21. [ The high temperature hot gas supplied from the compressor 13 is passed through.

The hot gas line 21 is extended to the condenser 14 after a part of the heating medium line 20 extends toward the evaporation vessel 31 and is wound in a coil form.

The absorbent member 32 is made of an absorbent material such as a nonwoven fabric or a sponge and is provided on the evaporation container 31. The absorbent member 32 is preferably provided in a pad shape having a predetermined thickness and area, And a part of the upper part thereof is protruded to the upper part of the evaporation vessel 31 and installed to be exposed to the outside air.

The air duct 33 is installed at one end of the compressor 13 at the upper end of the refrigerator 10 so that the air blown by the condenser fan 16 is directed downward toward the evaporation vessel 31 .

In this configuration, it is preferable that the evaporation vessel 31 is installed so as to minimize the protrusion from the main body 11 when installed on the back surface of the main body. To this end, And the evaporation vessel 31 is minimized to protrude from the main body 11 as at least a part of the evaporation vessel 31 is buried in the installation groove 19.

The installation groove 19 serves as a passage through which the air can be easily moved toward the vaporizing container 31 as the air duct 33 is positioned at the upper end thereof. And a vent hole 35 is formed on the cover panel 34 so as to correspond to the absorbent member 32. The vent hole 35 is formed on the cover panel 34, The detailed operating state of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 3 as follows.

3, the evaporated water generated by the defrosting operation of the evaporator 15 during the operation of the refrigerator 10 is discharged to the evaporation vessel 31 through the discharge pipe 18. At this time, On the discharge pipe 18, a trap 23 is typically coupled to minimize the outflow of cold air during the discharge of evaporated water.

The evaporated water accommodated in the evaporation vessel 31 is heated and evaporated by the hot gas supplied from the compressor 13 through the hot gas line 21 during operation of the refrigerator 10, 31 is absorbed by the absorptive member 32, the heating effect by the hot gas line 21 is increased as the amount of the evaporated water accommodated in the evaporation vessel 31 is reduced It helps to accelerate evaporation.

In addition, the evaporated water absorbed by the absorptive member 32 can be naturally vaporized by the temperature of the outside air. At this time, by the air blown by the condenser fan 16 through the air duct 33, It is possible not only to accelerate the vaporizing action of the evaporated water absorbed in the member 32 but also to prevent the high temperature generated in the compressor 13 from flowing to the air duct 33 The vaporizing action of the evaporation water is further accelerated as the gas is blown toward the evaporation vessel 31 and the absorption member 32 through the evaporation vessel 31 and the absorption member 32,

Since a large number of the absorptive members 32 are installed at regular intervals, high temperature air is blown between the absorptive members 32 so that vaporization can be performed quickly. An inlet port 36 is formed at one side of the compressor 13 so as to allow air to flow in and a discharge port 37 is formed at a lower portion of the evaporator vessel 31 to discharge air to the evaporation container 31 side, The air blown from the air blower is directed downward.

The reference numerals which are not described in the above description are the holders 38 provided in the evaporation vessel 31 and capable of receiving the respective absorption members 32.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit or scope of the inventions. It will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art.
