Description

냉장고의 급속 제빙 장치Rapid deicing device of the refrigerator

본 고안은 냉장고의 급속 제빙 장치에 관한 것으로서, 보다 상세하게는 증발기 자체의 냉각 온도를 직접 전달받아 제빙 용기에 담긴 물을 급속하게 냉각시킬수 있는 냉장고의 급속 제빙 장치에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a rapid deicing device of a refrigerator, and more particularly, to a rapid deicing device of a refrigerator capable of rapidly cooling water contained in an ice making container by directly receiving a cooling temperature of an evaporator itself.

도 1 은 일반적인 제빙 장치가 포함된 냉장고의 내부 구성을 전체적으로 나타낸 단면도이다.1 is a cross-sectional view showing an overall configuration of a refrigerator including a general ice making device.

도 1 에서 보면, 냉장고의 본체(1)는 냉동실(2)과 냉장실(3)로 구획되고, 상기 본체(1)의 뒤편에는 냉기 순환 통로(4)가 형성되어 있다. 상기 냉기 순환 통로(4)의 내부에는 냉매를 순환시키는 냉각 사이클의 한 구성 요소로써 냉기를 생성하는 증발기(5)가 배설되며, 이 증발기(5)로부터 생성된 냉기는 토출구(2a)(3a)를 통하여 냉동실(2) 및 냉장실(3)로 송풍 팬(6)에 의하여 강제 순환케 되어 있다.1, the main body 1 of the refrigerator is divided into a freezing chamber 2 and a refrigerating chamber 3, and a cold air circulation passage 4 is formed behind the main body 1. As shown in FIG. Inside the cold air circulation passage 4, an evaporator 5 for generating cold air is disposed as a component of a cooling cycle for circulating a coolant, and the cold air generated from the evaporator 5 discharges 2a and 3a. Forced circulation by the blower fan 6 to the freezing chamber 2 and the refrigerating chamber 3 through the through.

이러한 냉동실(2) 내에 비치된 선반(7) 아래에는 제빙 용기(8)가 전, 후로 슬라이딩 삽입될 수 있도록 지지부재(9)에 결합되어 있다. 그리고, 상기 제빙 용기(8)에 담긴 물은 토출구(2a)를 통해 공급되는 냉기에 노출됨으로써 냉각이 이루어진다.Under the shelf 7 provided in the freezer compartment 2, the ice making container 8 is coupled to the support member 9 so that the ice making container 8 can be slidably inserted back and forth. The water contained in the ice making container 8 is cooled by exposing the cold air supplied through the discharge port 2a.

그러나, 이러한 종래의 제빙 구조는, 예를 들어 냉동실(2)을 냉장실과 같은 용도로 절환 사용하다가 다시 복귀할 경우나 냉기를 송풍팬(6)에 의하여 강제 순환시켜 제빙하는 간접 냉각 구조로는 냉각 효율이 낮아서 제빙 속도가 떨어지는 문제점이 있었다.However, such a conventional ice making structure is cooled by an indirect cooling structure in which, for example, the freezing compartment 2 is switched to use for the same purpose as the refrigerating compartment and then returned, or when ice is forcedly circulated by the blower fan 6 to make ice. There was a problem that the ice making speed is lowered because the efficiency is low.

따라서, 본 고안은 상술한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 창안된 것으로서, 본 고안의 목적은 증발기 자체의 냉각 온도를 직접 전달받아 제빙 용기에 담긴 물을 급속하게 냉각시킴으로써 제빙 효율을 더욱 향상시킬 수 있는 냉장고의 급속 제빙장치를 제공하는 데 있다.Therefore, the present invention was devised to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a refrigerator that can further improve ice making efficiency by rapidly cooling water contained in an ice making container by receiving a cooling temperature of the evaporator itself. It is to provide a rapid ice making device.

In the drawings, portions other than the essential parts will be described with the same reference numerals and names as in the prior art.

상기 도면에서, 증발기(10)의 일측에 냉각핀(12)의 일부분이 절개되고, 여기에 삽입홈(14)이 형성된다.In the figure, a portion of the cooling fin 12 is cut on one side of the evaporator 10, and an insertion groove 14 is formed therein.

상기 증발기(10)의 삽입홈(14) 내에는 히트 파이프(20; heat pipe)가 절곡된 상태로 끼움 결합되고, 이 히트 파이프(20)의 양단은 냉동실(2) 내부로 인출된다. 여기서, 냉동실(2)의 벽면(2b) 및 냉기 순환 통로(4)의 벽면(4a)에는 히트 파이프(20)가 관통 삽입될 삽입구(2c)(4b)가 형성된다.The heat pipe 20 is bent into the insertion groove 14 of the evaporator 10 in a bent state, and both ends of the heat pipe 20 are drawn out into the freezing chamber 2. Here, insertion holes 2c and 4b through which the heat pipe 20 is inserted are formed in the wall surface 2b of the freezing chamber 2 and the wall surface 4a of the cold air circulation passage 4.

히트 파이프(20)는 진공 또는 낮은 압력을 가지는 파이프의 내부에 냉매가봉해진 것으로, 주로 고온과 저온 사이의 신속한 열 전달을 매개하는데 사용된다.The heat pipe 20 is a refrigerant sealed inside the pipe having a vacuum or low pressure, and is mainly used to mediate rapid heat transfer between high and low temperatures.

히트 파이프(20) 위에는 제빙 용기(30)가 얹혀지고, 이 제빙 용기(30)의 포켓 골(32)을 안착시키도록 한다. 물론, 상기 제빙 용기(30)는 냉동실(2) 내에 비치된 선반(7) 아래에서 전, 후로 슬라이딩 가능하도록 지지 부재(9) 사이에 끼움 결합될 수 있다.An ice making container 30 is placed on the heat pipe 20 so as to seat the pocket valley 32 of the ice making container 30. Of course, the ice making container 30 may be fitted between the support members 9 so as to be slidable back and forth under the shelf 7 provided in the freezer compartment 2.

더욱이, 히트 파이프(20)는 냉동실(2)의 내벽면(2b)에 고정된 지지턱(40)에 지지 고정되며, 이에 따라 제빙 용기(30)를 더욱 안정적으로 지지할 수 있다.In addition, the heat pipe 20 is supported and fixed to the support jaw 40 fixed to the inner wall surface 2b of the freezing chamber 2, thereby supporting the ice making container 30 more stably.

이와 같은 구조로 이루어진 본 고안에 따른 급속 제빙 장치에서는, 대략 -28∼30 ℃ 정도의 증발기의 온도가 히트 파이프(20)를 통하여 제빙 용기(30)에 직접 전달되므로 종래와 같은 냉기의 간접 전달 구조에 비하면 훨씬 신속하게 상기 용기(30)에 담긴 물을 결빙시키는 작용을 한다.In the rapid ice making apparatus according to the present invention having such a structure, since the temperature of the evaporator of about -28 to 30 ° C. is directly transmitted to the ice making vessel 30 through the heat pipe 20, the indirect delivery structure of the cold air as in the prior art. Compared to the above, it serves to freeze the water contained in the container 30 much more quickly.

동시에, 히트 파이프(20)는 제빙 용기(30)의 포켓 골(32)에 삽입되어 제빙 용기(30)를 지지하는 역할도 하게 된다. 이 때, 지지턱(40)을 더 갖추게 되면 더욱 안정적인 지지 작용을 하게 된다.At the same time, the heat pipe 20 is also inserted into the pocket valley 32 of the ice making container 30 to support the ice making container 30. At this time, if the support jaw 40 is further provided to have a more stable support action.

상술한 본 고안에 의하면, 증발기 자체의 냉각 온도를 직접 전달받아 제빙 용기에 담긴 물을 냉각시킴으로써 제빙 속도를 단축시킴은 물론 제빙 효율을 더욱 향상시킬 수 있다.According to the present invention described above, by directly receiving the cooling temperature of the evaporator itself, by cooling the water contained in the ice making container, the ice making speed can be shortened and the ice making efficiency can be further improved.
