Abstract

The present invention relates to a refrigerator door pocket mounting structure in which both ends of the door pocket are mounted on both sides of the inside of the door to accommodate and store the goods inside the refrigerator door. First coupling parts respectively formed at both ends of the door pocket 10 are provided. And a second coupling part on the inner side of the door formed on both sides of the door inner part 11 to be engaged with the first coupling part of the door pocket without a separate fastening means, and the support rib 14 of the first coupling part is provided. A locking projection 15 disposed between the protruding support 22 and the protruding portion 23 as a second engaging portion of the inner door of the door, and formed at an edge of the door pocket toward the inner side of the door pocket, is supported by the inner support 22. Since it is configured to engage with the formed recess 25, the coupling between the support and the protrusion on the inside of the door is supported by the support rib of the door pocket due to the error of shrinkage in the cooling process after molding the door pocket. It is a problem that the door pocket is not detached from the inside of the door by being loosely supported or sufficiently supported against the deformation force in the direction in which both ends are close to each other due to the load, so that the door pocket is sometimes detached from the inside of the conventional large refrigerator. Since the solution is eliminated there is an advantage that the reliability of the product is improved.

The present invention relates to a refrigerator door pocket, and more particularly, to a pocket mounting structure of a refrigerator having an improved structure so as to be firmly coupled so that the door pocket does not deviate from the inside of the door even if the large pocket of the large refrigerator is slightly modified according to use.

In general, refrigerator doors have door pockets mounted on the inside of the door to store beverages or food storage bottles inside the door.

However, the above door pocket is generally manufactured by injection molding, and is mounted in the engagement coupling method without using a separate fixing means on the inside of the door. As the shrinkage action occurs in the cooling process after molding the door pocket, Even though the size is designed to keep the two sides of the door fixed correctly, an error may occur and the engagement of both ends of the door pocket and the two sides of the inside of the door may be incomplete. The front part, which is not supported because it is supported, is subject to the load of the goods stored therein, so that both ends of the door pockets tend to be deformed to move inwards. There was a problem of departure.

The problem of the departure of the door pocket is that the larger the size of the door pocket is increased as the large refrigerator increases the shrinkage after molding and the tendency to be deformed as more items are stored in the door pocket.                         

Therefore, it is desired to improve the door pocket mounting structure so that the door pocket is not detached from the inside of the door in spite of the deformation after the molding and the food storage of the door pocket mounted on the inside of the refrigerator door.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to solve the problem of the tendency of the door pocket is separated from the inner door of the door by the deformation of the conventional refrigerator door pocket, the article that both ends of the door pocket is firmly engaged in the inner door of the door is stored in the door pocket It is to provide a mounting structure of the refrigerator door pocket having a rigid coupling structure to withstand the deformation force of the load.

According to the present invention for achieving the above object, the refrigerator door pocket mounting structure in which both ends of the door pocket is coupled to both sides of the inside of the door to be mounted to accommodate and store the goods inside the refrigerator door, respectively formed at both ends of the door pocket A first coupling part and a second coupling part on the inner side of the door, the first coupling part being formed on both sides of the inside of the door and configured to engage with the first coupling part of the door pocket without a separate fastening means; The engaging portion is configured to protrude outwardly from the end surface extending downward, and the engaging projection is formed in the corner toward the upper side of the refrigerator of the end surface, the second engaging portion on the inside of the door support portion protruding from the rear side inward And protrusions formed to protrude inward at positions spaced apart from each other at intervals corresponding to the width of the support ribs from the support portions. It is configured, characterized in that the support portion of the inner side both sides of the support portion of the inner side both sides are formed with grooves so as to engage the engaging projection of the door pocket so as to support against deformation in the direction in which both ends of the door pocket toward each other.

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

1 is an exploded perspective view showing the door pocket mounting structure as the refrigerator door pocket 10 according to the present invention is separated from the door inner box 11. The door pocket 10 is generally disposed at both ends thereof between the sides of the door inner box 11, and the receiving portion of the door pocket is formed to protrude forward than the side of the door inner portion for the expansion of the article receiving space.

The door pocket mounting structure according to the present invention is formed at both ends of the door pocket 10 and at both ends of the inner door 11 of the door pocket 10 to be engaged with the first coupling part of the door pocket without a separate fastening means. It is configured to engage with each other including a second engaging portion on the inside of the door formed to be engaged.

2 to 6, the first coupling portion formed at both ends of the door pocket protrudes outwardly from the end surface and extending downward, and a locking projection at the edge toward the inner side of the refrigerator of the end surface. 15 is formed to protrude.

Correspondingly, on the inner side surfaces of both side portions 21 of the inner side of the door, the support portion 22 is formed to protrude inward from the rear side as a second engagement portion, and the width of the support rib 14 from the support portion 22. The protrusions 23 are formed at positions spaced at intervals corresponding to the protrusions 23.

Thus, when the door pocket is mounted, the support ribs 14 at both ends thereof are inserted downward from the top between the support 22 and the protrusion 23 of the door inner box 11 so as to be supported against the deviation from the front of the door pocket. Allow pockets to be retained on the door interior. The support rib 14 of the door pocket is preferably formed to be inclined at the bottom to facilitate mounting on the inside of the door.

In addition, the support portion 22 has a groove portion 25 formed on the front surface thereof in the longitudinal direction, and when the support pocket 14 is inserted and fixed between the support portion 22 and the protrusion 23 when the door pocket is mounted, A locking protrusion 15 protruding from the rear end of the support rib at both ends is inserted into and engaged with the recess 25 of the support 22.

In this way, the engaging projection 15 protruding rearward from the both ends of the door pocket toward the inner wound is fitted into the recess 25 formed in the support 22 of the inner wound 11, thereby engaging the load of the article stored in the door pocket. Both ends of the door pockets, which are generated, are supported against deformation forces in an inward direction toward each other.

According to the present invention, support ribs are formed on each of both ends of the door pocket to be mounted on the inside of the door, and locking protrusions are formed on the rear side of the support rib, and both sides of the door inside are engaged with the support ribs at the front and rear sides when the door pocket is mounted. By forming a support part and a protrusion spaced therefrom, the door pocket supports the force forward by the load during the storage of the goods, and the locking projection of the door pocket is inserted into and coupled to the recess formed in the support part of the inner side of the door. By supporting the ends of the pockets so that they do not deform in the direction moving toward each other, the support ribs of the door pockets may loosen the support between the support and the protrusions on the inside of the door due to the error of shrinkage during cooling after the molding of the door pocket. In the direction that both ends are close to each other by load during storage By being sufficiently support against the deformation force because the door pocket in the conventional large refrigerator is firmly held without being bonded on the inner exit door door pocket is sometimes solved the problem of leaving on the inside there is an advantage that the reliability of the product is improved.
