Description

Fridge with health checker {HEALTH EXAMINATION APPARATUS IN REFRIGERATOR}

The present invention relates to a refrigerator having a health checker, comprising: a refrigerator having a health checker for allowing a user to recognize his or her health state by providing a health state measuring means for measuring a user's health state of the refrigerator. It is about.

In general, the refrigerator is divided into a freezer compartment for storing ice-making containers and frozen foods at a set temperature, and a refrigerating compartment in which refrigeration objects are stored, and a refrigeration cycle device is installed therein and circulated in a refrigeration cycle of evaporation, compression, condensation, and expansion. In order to keep the inside frozen and refrigerated, by absorbing external heat from the evaporator in the circulation circuit.

As shown in FIG. 1, the refrigerator is bisected by a main body 1, a separating wall 15 integrated into the main body 1, and a freezer compartment 10 for freezing and storing food and a refrigerating compartment 20 for refrigeration. ), A freezer compartment door 42 installed at the front of the main body 1 to open and close the freezer compartment 10 and a refrigerating compartment door 41 to open and close the refrigerating compartment 20, and the freezer compartment 10 and the refrigerating compartment ( 20) Each of the temperature sensors (not shown) mounted in the interior to sense the temperature inside, and the plurality of shelves 22 for mounting food, etc. are mounted in a multi-layer in the refrigerator compartment 20.

The main body 1 is equipped with a cooling device for generating cold air required for cooling the refrigerating chamber 10 and the freezing chamber 20, and is installed at the rear of the main body 1 to be generated in the evaporator 11 which is one of the cooling devices. A blower 12 for forcibly cooling the cold air to the freezing chamber 10, a cold air guide passage 13 for guiding a part of the cold air to be blown into the refrigerating chamber 20, and a separation wall 15 integrated with the main body 1. Formed in the cooling chamber 10 to cool the freezer compartment 10 and guide the cold air to be cooled again according to the continuous operation of the evaporator 11. In accordance with the continuous operation of the refrigerating chamber cold air circulation for guiding the guide 17 is made.

In the freezer compartment 10 and the refrigerating compartment 20 of the refrigerator configured as described above, various kinds of foods and the like are kept at an appropriate temperature or less to maintain a fresh state, thereby maintaining the nutritional state of the food for a long time without being destroyed.

Using the refrigerator as described above to keep the stored food in a fresh state for a long time not only to prevent the nutritional state is destroyed, but also ingesting the food in accordance with the constitution of each user in recent years ingesting the food according to the type of food stored Choosing to eat is considered important in managing your health.

However, the conventional refrigerator for storing such food is not equipped with any device that can give such information, there is a pity that does not adequately meet the needs of modern people who care about health.

In addition, in recent years, modern people who have become more interested in health have not only needed a separate blood pressure monitor and thermometer to check their health, but also have such a device in their homes. Since it was not so common, there was a hassle to go to the hospital one by one, and because of such a hassle, it was not possible to check his most important health condition frequently, so he found early abnormalities in his health and prevented him from finding an appropriate time for treatment. There was this.

The object of the present invention devised in view of the above point is provided with a health checker which is provided with a health state measuring means in the refrigerator so that the user can check his or her health state from time to time, and the information helps to keep the health. In providing a refrigerator.

The refrigerator provided with a health checker for achieving the object of the present invention as described above, the refrigerator compartment for freezing the food and the refrigerating compartment for storing the compartment, the door and the handle opening and closing the freezer compartment and the refrigerating compartment of the main body, A refrigerator having a cooling device for generating cold air for cooling inside the main body, the refrigerator storing food, the health state measuring means capable of measuring a user's health state, and the information measured by the health state measuring means is displayed. The display unit is configured to be recognized by the user.

In addition, the health state measuring means is mounted so that the user's hand is in contact with the handle of the door and detects the user's blood pressure pulse body temperature and the like, and receives the detection signal of the detection sensor to receive the user's health state It is preferably formed and formed of a microcomputer to check and deliver to the display unit.

Hereinafter, a refrigerator having a health checker according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Hereinafter, the same parts as in the conventional structure will be described with the same reference numerals.

In the refrigerator having a health checker which is an embodiment of the present invention, a description of a portion constituting the same structure as the conventional structure is omitted, and a detailed description thereof refers to the description of FIG. 1.

Figure 2 is a longitudinal sectional view showing the internal structure of a refrigerator equipped with a health state measuring device according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 is a block diagram schematically showing the structure of a refrigerator having a health checker according to an embodiment of the present invention As shown, the refrigerator equipped with a health state measuring device according to an embodiment of the present invention is nutrientd by the main body 1 and the separating wall 15 integrated into the main body 1 to freeze and store food. The freezer compartment 10 and the refrigerating compartment 20 for refrigeration and the refrigerator compartment door 42 for opening and closing the freezer compartment 10 and the refrigerating compartment 20 installed at the front of the main body 1 to open and close the freezer compartment ( 41), respective temperature sensors (not shown) mounted in the refrigerator to sense temperatures in the freezer compartment 10 and the refrigerating compartment 20, and a plurality of foods in which the food compartment, etc. can be placed in the refrigerating compartment 20. Shelf 22 is configured to be mounted in multiple layers, cold The seal door 41 and the freezing chamber door 42 are formed with handles 41a and 42a for opening and closing the respective doors, and a display unit 43 for displaying various information on the front side of the refrigerating chamber door 41 is provided. Is formed.

In addition, the refrigerator is mounted so that the user's hand can be in contact with the handle (41a) of the refrigerating chamber door 41 so that the user's health can be measured, and detects the user's blood pressure pulse body temperature and the like; The health state measuring means comprising a microcomputer 45 which receives the detection signal of the detection sensor 44 and checks the health state of the user and transmits it to the display unit 43 is mounted.
