Description

Door structure of Kimchi storage

The present invention relates to a door structure of a kimchi storage, and more specifically, a new concept of the door opening and closing structure, the convenience of use by installing a plurality of doors in one storage room to open and close one storage room in at least two areas. It is about the door structure of the kimchi storage.

As is well known, recently, kimchi fermentation, which has a function such as fermenting kimchi or ripening for a certain period of time or refrigerated storage, has become more popular.

The kimchi storage is equipped with a temperature control suitable for ripening and long-term storage of kimchi so that you can enjoy the taste of fresh kimchi according to the taste of the user by using a heater and a refrigeration system.

Here, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a kimchi storage having a conventional top open door structure, Figure 2 is a perspective view of a kimchi storage having a conventional drawer door structure.

At this time, the conventional kimchi storage shown in Figures 1 and 2 has a main body (100,200) is formed with a storage chamber and a mechanical chamber not shown therein, and the door (110,210) provided on either side of the main body (100,200) to open and close the storage chamber.

The storage chamber accommodates a plurality of storage containers for storing kimchi and the like, and a compressor, a condenser, and a cooling fan are provided in the machinery chamber.

Although these kimchi storage rooms have one storage room, there are a lot of storage rooms in recent years that employ a plurality of storage rooms in order to store vegetables, fruits, meat, etc. in addition to kimchi. .

In addition, in the case of the kimchi storage shown in FIG. 1, the door 110 is provided on the upper part of the main body 100, and the upper opening door 110 for opening and closing the upper input opening of the storage chamber is adopted. In the case of the kimchi storage shown is a drawer door 210 is configured to open and close the storage compartment by configuring the door 210 in the drawer type for ease of use.

In recent years, a composite (or mixed) kimchi storage equipped with each of the upper opening door 110 and the drawer door 210 has been actively released.

By the way, in the conventional kimchi storage, as described above, it is true that the choice is narrow because the upper opening door 110 or the drawer door 210 is adopted for one storage compartment.

In particular, since kimchi is very sensitive to temperature changes, methods for minimizing the temperature change caused by the outflow of cold air during long-term storage of kimchi are being researched and developed. When actually measuring the leakage of cold air, the amount of cold air leakage occurs when the drawer door 210 is opened compared to opening the upper opening and closing door 110, so while keeping the kimchi for a long time In the process of taking out kimchi as needed, it is known that the kimchi storage having the upper opening / closing door 110 is relatively advantageous compared to the kimchi storage having the drawer door 210.

On the other hand, the recent kimchi storage is widely used to store not only kimchi, but also foods that need to be kept fresh such as vegetables, fruits, and meats. Because it is somewhat insensitive, it is not influenced by the outflow of cold air due to the opening and closing of the door, and the drawer door 210 is more used from the consumer's point of view when storing and storing vegetables, light work, and meat, etc., compared to the upper opening / closing door 110. It is understood to have the advantage of convenience.

Accordingly, the applicant of the new concept having the advantages of the drawer-type door 210 while maintaining the advantages of the top-opening door 110, in line with the point that the desire to pursue the convenience of the consumer is gradually improved by increasing the standard of living. I felt the necessity of introducing the door opening structure.

The present invention was devised in accordance with the necessity of introducing a new concept of door opening and closing structure, and the object of the present invention is a method of a new concept door opening and closing structure, which allows a plurality of storage compartments to be opened and closed in at least two areas. It is to provide a kimchi storage door structure that can provide convenience of use by installing the door of the.

The present invention for achieving the above object is a kimchi storage having a main body to form an appearance, at least one storage compartment in the body, and the door to open and close the storage chamber, the one storage compartment in at least two areas It is achieved by providing a door structure of a kimchi storage, characterized in that it has a plurality of doors to open and close.

Here, the plurality of doors, the upper opening and closing door for opening and closing the upper input opening of the one storage compartment; And a drawer type door that slides open and closes the front entrance opening of the storage compartment.

At this time, the upper opening door is rotated upward by the hinge portion mounted to the rear end of the main body and the upper opening door; The drawer-type door slides by an inner wall of the storage compartment and a rail part provided on both sides of the drawer-type door.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in detail a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

Figure 3 is a perspective view of the kimchi storage according to the present invention, Figure 4 is a schematic side cross-sectional view of Figure 3 according to the present invention, Figure 5 is a perspective view showing a state of use of the kimchi storage of Figure 3 according to the present invention.

As shown in these drawings, a machine room (not shown) and a plurality of storage chambers (11, 12) are provided inside the main body 10 of the kimchi storage according to the present invention. )

For reference, in the drawings, two first and second storage chambers 11 and 12 are provided along a height direction of the center, and third and fourth storage chambers (not shown) are formed at both sides thereof.

By securing such a large number of storage rooms there is an advantage that can be stored differently for each kind, such as kimchi, vegetables, fruits, rice and meat.

Above the third and fourth storage chambers (not shown), doors 23 and 24 are provided to open and close the upper openings of the third and fourth storage chambers.

These doors 23 and 24 are provided on the upper part of the main body 10 to open and close the third and fourth storage chambers while rotating upward.

In addition, a door 22 is provided on the front surface of the second storage chamber 12 for opening and closing the front entrance opening 12a of the second storage chamber 12, and the door 22 is slidably moved in a drawer type. The storage compartment 12 is opened and closed.

The upper front surface of the main body 10 selects the temperature conditions and storage time, such as kimchi, vegetables, fruits, rice, and meat, which are individually accommodated in each storage compartment (11, 12 ...) or an ice making function to be described later. And a control panel 30 having a plurality of selection buttons 30a for selecting the quick freezing function and a display unit 30b for displaying the selected signal.

Meanwhile, referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, unlike the remaining storage chambers 12..., The openings 11a and 11b of the first storage chamber 11 are opened and closed in two areas in the first storage chamber 11. Two doors 21a and 21b are provided.

One is an upper opening / closing door 21a that opens and closes the upper input opening 11a of the first storage chamber 11 upwardly, and the other is a drawer-type door slidingly opening and closing the front input opening 11b of the first storage chamber 11. (21b).

Of course, as shown in the drawing, any one of the upper door 21a or the drawer door 21b can be opened to the first storage chamber (11).

At this time, the upper opening door 21a is rotated upward by the hinge portion 15 mounted on the rear end of the main body 10 and the upper opening door.

The drawer-type door 21b slides by an inner wall of the first storage chamber 11 and rail portions 16 provided on both sides of the drawer-type door 21b.

Since the structure and operation of the hinge portion 15 or the rail portion 16 may be used as the structure of the known kimchi storage has already been applied for a considerable amount by the present applicant, detailed description thereof will be omitted here.

In the kimchi storage having such a configuration, if you want to put any of kimchi, vegetables, fruits, rice and meat in the third and fourth storage room, the doors 23 and 24 provided in the upper part of the storage room can be rotated upward and stored. If you want to put in the second storage chamber 12, the door 22 provided in the front of the drawer type can be opened and stored.

If you want to put the container 18 containing any food of kimchi, vegetables, fruits, rice and meat in the first storage chamber 11, first, any one of the upper opening door 21a and the drawer door 21b. You can open it by selecting it.

At this time, preferably foods sensitive to temperature changes such as kimchi are stored and stored using the upper opening / closing door 21a, and foods less sensitive to temperature changes such as vegetables, fruits, rice, and meat are pulled doors 21b. It is good to store using.

In particular, when the accommodation container 18 is heavy and inconvenient to lift high, it is advantageous in terms of ease of use to store using the drawer door 21b.

Then, the storage container 18 is placed in the first storage chamber 11, and closing is completed by closing the upper open / close door 21a or the drawer door 21b.

In this state, if you want to use the food in the storage container 18 stored in the first storage chamber 11, as in the case of the kimchi it is good to withdraw using the upper opening and closing door (21a).

Of course, on the contrary, when taking out the container 18 containing the food, such as vegetables, fruits, rice and meat, it is good to slide out the drawer door 21b located in front of it.

Then, after the appropriate amount of food is taken out through the container 18 in the drawn out state, the drawer-type door 21b may be slid in and out again toward the first storage chamber 11.

As mentioned in the prior art, kimchi storage is also relatively sensitive to the leakage of cold air, as in the conventional refrigerators, and actually measured by the leakage of cold air, it is more likely to open the drawer door than to open the upper opening door. It is reported that more cold air outflows occur.

For this reason, it is preferable to use the upper opening / closing door 21a when the container 18 containing kimchi or the like is put into or taken out of the first storage chamber 11 as described above, and includes foods such as vegetables, fruits, rice, and meat. It is only good to use the drawer-type door 21b when storing or taking out the container 18, and it is only a consumer's option in the use.

However, according to the kimchi storage of the present invention having a plurality of doors in one storage chamber as described above, the upper opening and closing door 21a in the first storage chamber 11 to open and close the first storage chamber 11 in two areas. By dual device with the drawer door 21b, it has the advantage that can provide convenience of use while widening the choice of consumers through the door opening and closing structure of the new concept.

Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the drawings, the present invention is not limited thereto.

In the embodiment described above, the double doors 21a and 21b are provided only in the first storage chamber 11. However, the idea of the present invention can be sufficiently applied to the third and fourth storage chambers.

In addition, although the kimchi storage having a total of four storage compartments (11, 12 ...) is applied as an example, the idea of the present invention can have four or more storage compartments from a kimchi storage having one storage compartment. It can be applied to both kimchi storage.

And, although not shown, it may be configured as a rotary door that can be opened and closed rotationally to the left and right sides or rotationally based on one axis up and down like a general refrigerator, not the sliding door.

As described above, according to the present invention, as a new concept of door opening and closing structure, a plurality of doors are provided in one storage room so that one storage room can be opened and closed in at least two areas, thereby expanding the range of consumer choice. There is an effect that can provide convenience.
