일반적으로 냉장고는 내부 온도가 실내 온도 보다 낮은 상태를 유지하여 내부에 저장되어 있는 음식물을 냉장 또는 냉동 상태로 장시간 보관할 수 있는 가전 제품이다.In general, a refrigerator is a home appliance that can store food stored therein for a long time in a refrigerated or frozen state by keeping the internal temperature lower than a room temperature.

상기 냉장고는 냉동실과 냉장실로 구분되며, 냉장실의 냉기 공급은 냉동실 온도가 일정 온도 이상으로 상승하면 냉동실 배면에 설치되어 있는 송풍팬이 작동되고, 냉각기에서 발생된 냉기가 메인 덕트 및 사이드 덕트를 통해 각각 냉동실과 냉장실로 공급된다.The refrigerator is divided into a freezer compartment and a refrigerating compartment. The supply of cold air in the refrigerating compartment is performed when the freezer compartment temperature rises above a predetermined temperature, and a blower fan installed at the rear side of the freezer compartment is operated. It is supplied to the freezer compartment and the refrigerating compartment.

상기 냉각기와 연결된 메인 덕트는 냉각기에서부터 냉동실의 배면 상부에서부터 중간 위치까지 연장되고, 메인 덕트에서 배출된 냉기는 냉동실 및 냉동실 하부에 형성되어 있는 냉기 통풍구를 통해 냉장실로 순환 공급된다.The main duct connected to the cooler extends from the cooler to the middle position from the upper back of the freezer compartment, and the cold air discharged from the main duct is circulated and supplied to the refrigerating compartment through cold air vents formed in the freezer compartment and the lower part of the freezer compartment.

이렇게 냉기가 공급되도록 냉동실에는 냉장실과 통하는 냉기 통풍구가 형성되며, 이를 도1에 간략하게 도시하였다.The cold air vent is formed in the freezer compartment so as to supply the cold air, which is briefly illustrated in FIG. 1.

도1에 도시된 바와 같이, 냉장고에는 냉동실(10)과 냉장실(11)이 마련되며, 냉동실(10) 배면에는 메인 덕트로부터 냉기가 배출되는 냉기 배출구(12)가 설치되고, 냉동실(10) 바닥면에는 냉장실(11)로 냉기가 통하도록 냉기 통풍구(13)가 설치된다.As shown in FIG. 1, the refrigerator is provided with a freezing compartment 10 and a refrigerating compartment 11, and a cold air outlet 12 through which cold air is discharged from the main duct is installed on a rear surface of the freezing compartment 10, and a bottom of the freezing compartment 10 is provided. The cold air vent 13 is provided on the surface to allow cold air to flow into the refrigerating chamber 11.

이러한 냉기 통풍구(13)는 냉동실(10) 바단면 양쪽에 설치되는데, 길이를 갖는 통풍구가 일정 간격으로 다수개 설치되며, 이들 냉기 통풍구(13)는 냉기를 냉장실로 이동되는 통로 역할을 하게 된다.The cold air vent 13 is installed on both sides of the free end of the freezer compartment 10, a plurality of vents having a length is installed at regular intervals, these cold air vents 13 serve as a passage to move the cold air to the cold compartment.

Water has flowed down along the freezer wall and flowed into the cold air vent at the bottom of the freezer compartment, causing freezing inside the cold air vent.

이와 같이 냉기 통풍구가 결빙되면, 냉동실의 냉기가 냉장실로 원활하게 이동되지 못함으로써 냉장고의 냉장 효율을 떨어뜨림은 물론 냉장실에 있는 식품의 보존 기간을 단축시키게 되는 문제점이 있었다.When the cold air vent freezes as described above, there is a problem that the cold air of the freezer compartment does not move smoothly to the refrigerating compartment, thereby reducing the refrigerating efficiency of the refrigerator and shortening the preservation period of the food in the refrigerating compartment.

본 발명은 상기와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 안출된 것으로, 본 발명의 목적은 냉동실 내부에 수분이 발생되더라도 수분이 냉기 통풍구로 들어가지 않도록 차단하는 냉기 통풍구의 수분 유입 차단구조를 제공하는 데 있다.The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, it is an object of the present invention to provide a moisture inlet blocking structure of the cold air vents to block the moisture from entering the cold air vents even if the water generated inside the freezer compartment.

또한 본 발명의 다른 목적은 냉동실 내부에서 발생된 수분을 집수함으로써 냉기 통풍구에 수분이 유입되지 않도록 하며, 냉기 통풍구를 냉동실의 바닥면 보다 높게 형성함으로써 냉기 통풍구로 수분이 유입되지 않게 하는 냉기 통풍구의 수분 유입 차단구조를 제공하는 데 있다.In addition, another object of the present invention is to collect the moisture generated in the freezer compartment to prevent moisture from entering the cold air vents, and by forming the cold air vents higher than the bottom surface of the freezer compartment to prevent moisture from entering the cold air vents It is to provide an inflow blocking structure.

상기 목적을 달성하기 위해 본 발명의 냉기 통풍구의 수분 유입 차단구조는 냉각기로부터 냉기가 공급되게 메인 덕트가 설치된 냉동실, 상기 냉동실 하부에 형성되는 냉장실, 상기 냉동실로 공급된 냉기가 냉장실로 이동되게 상기 냉동실 바닥면에 냉기 통풍구가 설치된 냉기 통풍구의 수분 유입 차단구조로서, 상기 냉동실에서 발생된 수분이 집수되도록 냉장실 벽면에 경사지게 설치되는 집수로, 상기 집수로 하단에 수분이 저장되게 설치되는 집수함을 포함하는 것을 특징으로 한다.In order to achieve the above object, the water inlet blocking structure of the cold air vent of the present invention includes a freezer compartment in which a main duct is installed to supply cold air from a cooler, a refrigerating compartment formed under the freezer compartment, and the freezer compartment so that the cold air supplied to the freezer compartment is moved to the refrigerating compartment.

It is characterized by.

이와 같은 본 발명은 냉동실 내부에서 발생된 수분이 집수로를 따라 모여짐으로써 냉기 통풍구에 수분이 유입되지 않게 되고, 냉기 통풍구가 냉동실 바닥면 보다 높게 형성되어 바닥면의 수분이 냉기 통풍구로 유입되지 않으며, 냉기 통풍구 내부로 수분이 유입되지 않고, 이에 따라 냉기 통풍구 내부가 결빙되지 않아 냉기가 원활하게 순환됨으로써 냉장고 효율을 높이게 되는 유용한 효과가 있다.In the present invention, the moisture generated in the freezer compartment is collected along the water collecting passage so that the moisture is not introduced into the cold air vent, and the cold air vent is formed higher than the bottom of the freezer compartment so that the moisture of the bottom surface does not flow into the cold air vent. In addition, since moisture does not flow into the cold air vent, the inside of the cold air vent does not freeze, and thus the cold air is circulated smoothly, thereby increasing the refrigerator efficiency.

이하 첨부된 도면을 참조하여 본 발명의 실시예를 설명한다.Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

도2는 본 발명의 제1실시예에 의한 냉기 통풍구의 수분 유입 차단구조를 도시한 일부 절결 사시도이고, 도3은 도2의 A-A선 단면도이다.FIG. 2 is a partially cutaway perspective view illustrating a water inflow blocking structure of the cold air vent according to the first embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along line A-A of FIG.

도2 및 도3에 도시된 바와 같이, 본 발명의 제1실시예에 따른 냉기 통풍구의 수분 유입 차단구조는 냉동실(100) 벽면에 설치되는 집수로(110)와 냉동실(100) 바닥면에 설치되는 집수함(120)으로 이루어진다.2 and 3, the moisture inlet blocking structure of the cold air vent according to the first embodiment of the present invention is installed on the water collecting passage 110 and the bottom of the freezing chamber 100 installed on the wall of the freezing chamber 100. Being made of a collection box (120).

상기 집수로(110)는 도2에서와 같이, 냉동실(110) 벽면 중 배면 쪽에 설치되며, 배면뿐만 아니라 양측면에 설치될 수도 있다. 즉, 집수로(110)는 냉동실(110) 벽면에 모두 설치할 수 있으며, 필요에 따라 자유로이 설치될 수 있다.As shown in FIG. 2, the water collecting passage 110 is installed at the rear side of the wall surface of the freezing chamber 110 and may be installed at both sides as well as the rear side. That is, the water collecting passage 110 may be installed on all of the freezing chamber 110 walls, and may be installed freely as needed.

이러한 집수로(110)는 냉동실(110) 벽면으로부터 냉동실(110) 안쪽으로 돌출되게 형성되며, 집수로(110)는 냉동실(110) 벽면을 따라 흘러 내리게 되는 수분이 모이도록 형성된다.The water collecting passage 110 is formed to protrude from the wall of the freezing chamber 110 into the freezing chamber 110, and the water collecting passage 110 is formed to collect moisture flowing along the wall of the freezing chamber 110.

상기 집수로(110)는 도3에 도시된 바와 같이, 냉동실(110) 벽면에 일체로 이루어져 냉동실(110) 안쪽으로 돌출되는 원호 형상으로 벽면을 따라 하향 경사지게 형성된다. 또 집수로(110)는 원호 형상뿐만 아니라 각형, U자형 등 수분이 모이는 형상이면 그 형상에 구애받지 않고 형성될 수 있다.As shown in FIG. 3, the water collecting passage 110 is integrally formed on the wall surface of the freezing chamber 110 and is formed to be inclined downward along the wall surface in an arc shape projecting into the freezing chamber 110. In addition, the water collecting passage 110 may be formed regardless of the shape as long as the water gathers not only an arc shape but also a square shape and a U shape.

또한 집수로(110) 하단에는 집수로(110)를 흘러 내린 수분을 저장하는 집수함(120)이 설치된다. 이러한 집수함(120)은 수분을 일시적으로 저장할 수 있는 용기로서, 냉동실(100) 바닥면에 집수함(120)과 동일한 크기를 갖는 홈부(121)에 내장되게 설치된다.In addition, a collecting box 120 is installed at the bottom of the collecting channel 110 to store the water flowing down the collecting channel 110. The collection box 120 is a container capable of temporarily storing moisture, and is installed to be embedded in the groove 121 having the same size as the collection box 120 on the bottom surface of the freezing chamber 100.

이러한 집수함(120)은 필요에 따라 냉동실(100) 바닥면에 별도의 홈부(121)를 형성하지 않고서 바닥면에 안정되게 놓이는 상태로 설치될 수도 있다.The collection box 120 may be installed in a stable state on the bottom without forming a separate groove 121 on the bottom surface of the freezer compartment 100 as needed.

또한 냉동실(100) 바닥면에 설치되는 냉기 통풍구(130)는 냉동실(100)의 바닥면 보다 높은 상부 바닥면(131)에 설치된다. 즉, 상부 바닥면(131)은 냉동 실(100)의 바닥면 보다 다소 높게 형성된다.In addition, the cold air vent 130 installed on the bottom surface of the freezing chamber 100 is installed on the upper bottom surface 131 higher than the bottom surface of the freezing chamber 100. That is, the upper bottom surface 131 is formed somewhat higher than the bottom surface of the freezing chamber 100.

이와 같은 본 발명의 제1실시예에 따른 냉기 통풍구의 수분 유입 방지구조는 냉각기에서 발생된 냉기가 메인 덕트를 통해 냉동실(100) 내부로 공급되고, 이러한 냉기에 의해 냉동실(100) 및 냉장실(101)이 실내 온도 보다 낮은 온도로 유지된다.The moisture inflow preventing structure of the cold air vent according to the first embodiment of the present invention is supplied to the inside of the freezer compartment 100 through the main duct, the cold air generated in the cooler, by the freezer compartment 100 and the refrigerating compartment 101 ) Is maintained at a temperature lower than the room temperature.

이와 같이 냉장고가 실내 보다 낮은 온도를 유지하는 상태에서 사용자가 냉장고의 도어를 여닫게 되면 실내의 고온 다습한 공기가 냉장고 내부로 유입된다.When the user opens and closes the door of the refrigerator while the refrigerator maintains a lower temperature than the room, high temperature and high humidity air flows into the refrigerator.

이렇게 실내의 고온 다습한 공기가 냉장고로 유입되면, 냉장고 내부의 냉기와 실내 공기가 혼합되면서 냉동실(100)에는 물방울 형태의 수분이 발생하게 된다.When the high temperature and high humidity air flows into the refrigerator as described above, moisture in the form of water droplets is generated in the freezer compartment 100 while the cold inside the refrigerator is mixed with the indoor air.

상기 냉동실 벽면에 발생된 수분은 그 벽면을 따라 흘러 내리게 되고, 수분은 벽면에 설치되어 있는 집수로(110)에 도달하게 된다. 집수로(110)에 도달된 수분은 집수로(110)가 하향 경사져 있어 하단쪽으로 흐르게 된다.Water generated on the wall surface of the freezer compartment flows down along the wall surface, and the water reaches the water collecting passage 110 installed on the wall surface. Moisture reached to the water collecting passage 110 is the water collecting passage 110 is inclined downward to flow to the bottom.

이와 같이 흘러내린 수분은 하단의 집수함(120)에 모이게 되며, 사용자는 집수함(120)에 물이 채워지게 되고, 사용자는 집수함(120)을 홈부(121)로부터 빼내어 집수함(120)의 물을 비우게 된다.Moisture flowed down in this way is collected in the reservoir 120 of the bottom, the user is filled with water in the reservoir 120, the user to take out the reservoir 120 from the groove 121 to collect the reservoir 120 Will empty the water.

즉, 냉동실(100)에서 발생된 수분은 집수로(110)를 따라 집수함(120)에 채워져 냉동실(100) 바닥면에 수분이 발생하지 않게 되어 냉기 통풍구(130)로의 수분이 유입됨을 차단하게 된다.That is, the moisture generated in the freezing compartment 100 is filled in the collecting container 120 along the water collecting passage 110 so that no moisture is generated on the bottom surface of the freezing compartment 100 to block the inflow of moisture into the cold air vent 130. do.

또한 냉기 통풍구(130)는 냉동실(100) 바닥면 보다 다소 높은 상부 바닥면(131)에 설치되므로, 냉기 통풍구(130)에 수분이 유입됨을 완벽하게 차단시킬 수 있게 된다.In addition, since the cold air vent 130 is installed on the upper bottom surface 131 which is somewhat higher than the bottom of the freezer compartment 100, the cold air vent 130 can completely block the flow of moisture into the cold air vent 130.

<제2실시예>Second Embodiment

도4는 본 발명의 제2실시예에 의한 수분 유입 차단구조를 도시한 단면도로서, 본 발명의 제2실시예는 전술한 제1실시예의 집수로(110)와 유사하므로, 그 차이점에 대하여 간략하게 설명하기로 한다.Figure 4 is a cross-sectional view showing a water inlet blocking structure according to a second embodiment of the present invention, since the second embodiment of the present invention is similar to the water collecting passage 110 of the first embodiment described above, the difference is briefly described. I will explain.

도4에서와 같이, 제2실시예에 의한 집수로(110a)는 냉동실(100) 벽면과 탈착되는 구조로 이루어진다.As shown in FIG. 4, the water collecting passage 110a according to the second embodiment is configured to be detached from the wall surface of the freezing chamber 100.

상기 냉동실(100) 벽면에는 집수로(110a)가 장착되는 결합 구멍(111)이 형성되며, 이 결합 구멍(111)은 집수로(110a)와 동일하게 경사지게 형성된다.A coupling hole 111 in which the water collecting passage 110a is mounted is formed on the wall surface of the freezing chamber 100, and the coupling hole 111 is formed to be inclined in the same manner as the water collecting passage 110a.

또한 집수로(110a)는 냉동실(110) 벽면과 동일한 폭을 갖는 고정부(112)가 형성되고, 상기 고정부(112) 양쪽에는 집수로(110a)가 결합된 상태에서 이탈되지 않게 결합 구멍(111) 보다 큰 높이를 갖는 확장부(113)가 형성된다.In addition, the collecting passage 110a has a fixing portion 112 having the same width as that of the freezing chamber 110, and both sides of the fixing portion 112 are coupled to each other so that the collecting passage 110a is not separated from the collecting passage 110a. An extension 113 having a height greater than 111 is formed.

이러한 집수로(110)는 연질의 재질로 이루어져 확장부(113)가 결합 구멍(111)에 용이하게 끼워짐은 물론 필요에 따라 분리가 용이하게 이루어진다.The water collecting passage 110 is made of a soft material, and the expansion portion 113 is easily fitted into the coupling hole 111, and is easily separated as necessary.

또한 집수함(120) 및 냉기 통풍구(130)는 전술한 제1실시예와 동일하므로 이에 대한 설명은 생략하기로 한다.In addition, since the collection box 120 and the cold air vent 130 are the same as the first embodiment described above, description thereof will be omitted.

이와 같은 본 발명의 제2실시예에 의한 수분 유입 차단구조는 집수로(110a)를 결합 구멍(111)에 강하게 밀어줌에 따라 확장부(113)가 수축되면서 결합 구 멍(111)에 고정부(112)가 끼워져 결합된다.The water inflow blocking structure according to the second embodiment of the present invention as described above is fixed to the coupling holes 111 while the expansion part 113 is contracted as the water collecting passage 110a is strongly pushed into the coupling holes 111. 112 is fitted to fit.
