The present invention installs the cooling gas of the air conditioner operated by engine power into the glove box for the cooling of the car, so that the glove box can be used as the refrigerating chamber according to the needs of the user. The present invention relates to an automotive refrigerator using air conditioning designed to provide cool foods when enjoying various leisure activities.

With the development of the current industry, privately owned cars are increasing day by day, and most of them are used for near- and long-distance outdoor travel for business or travel purposes.

When traveling outdoors by car, it is inevitable to carry foods or drinks, and during such relatively cold seasons, it is possible to carry the food without any problem in carrying around.

However, during the hot summer season, the food is deteriorated or the drink is hot, and it is frequently eaten when traveling and outdoors. There was a problem such as to feel the heat more increased.

In general, while traveling, the inside of the car is especially hotter than outside, and most of the existing cars use air conditioning powered by the engine, and the ride inside the car feels cool by the cooling gas and enjoys sanctions while traveling. Most car owners have demanded the need for refrigerators to keep them cool and to always have cool food and drinks anywhere on the trip.

Accordingly, in the past, a small refrigerator was installed in the trunk of a vehicle to be used as a power source for the battery. However, despite the relatively large waste of power even when the air conditioner is operated, the large load current required for the circulation of the cooling gas of the refrigerator is used. It is not only a huge power loss to use at the same time, but also impairs the running speed due to the waste of engine power during driving, and in the hills, the engine is turned off or the cooling effect of the air conditioner is reduced, so that the passengers feel the heat from the rider. The large occupancy of the trunk has led to inconveniences such as limiting the loading of the necessary tools.

In addition, there is a use of a so-called ice box for refrigerating food by embedding ice to exclude the loading of the refrigerator using the cooling cycle as described above, but this also requires the preparation of ice at all times and when the ice melts in a relatively short time during the trip. There is a problem and drawbacks such that the effect of refrigeration is lost, such that the user feels the travel distance and time, etc., the need for a refrigeration room that can freely refrigerate food at any time, without reducing the space in the car.

In consideration of the necessity of such a refrigerator room, a refrigerator room is provided at the back of the driver's seat as published in the Japan Invention Publication (Publication No. 85-4086) and boarded in the rear seat in such a way that the cooling gas of the air conditioner is supplied. It has been proposed to provide cool drinks and food to one user.

However, this is mainly installed inside the backrest of the seat, which is composed of cloth or vinyl wrapped around the cushion material, and the pipes to be transported to the cooling gas pass through the circumference of the driver's seat. As the door must be handled only by occupants located in the rear seats, the following closures follow.

First, the structure of the driver's seat should be equipped with airtight and cold temperature means to protect the cold gear, and it is impossible to secure enough capacity to load beverage containers. As a result of the installation, a lot of renovation costs are invested, as well as installation problems that cannot be installed in the existing equipment, and second, pipes for supplying cold air to the rear of the seat are passed through the facility around the driver's seat, causing an accident. At the same time, there was a danger that it would be inconvenient to reduce the space inside the vehicle caused by this facility. Third, the driver should be installed behind the driver's seat so that the driver, who is most in need of drinking water when traveling long distances, cannot handle it. Many defects such as giving a lot of restrictions, such as a lot of restrictions on the use Will be.

An object of the present invention is to provide a refrigerator compartment for a vehicle that can be easily handled by the driver without remodeling and adding facilities to a separate refrigerator compartment.

Another object of the present invention is to use a grove box for storing documents and items, and also to use as a refrigerator compartment, and to be used by switching to the appropriate position as needed to provide a vehicle refrigerator compartment for the user convenience. There is.

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

Connection pipes 2a, 2b and 2c, which are cooled by the air conditioning system driven by the engine's power, branched from the selector duct 1, are discharge ports 3a and 3b formed at the left and right sides of the vehicle center. The selector duct 1 and the axle shaft are provided with a glove box A provided to be cooled by cooling the air stream in the room through 3c) and being in close contact with the bottom surface of the panel 4. After connecting the branch pipe (5) formed with the intermittent valve (6) to the middle of the connecting pipe (2a) piped between (3a) to allow the cooling gas to flow into the glove box (A) through the inlet pipe (7) Through the bypass pipe (8) is to be able to circulate the cold air.

In the drawings, reference numeral 10 denotes a lead duct 13 is a beverage container, 11 is a drain pipe connected to a glove box for discharging water generated by condensation of cold air to the bottom of the vehicle body, 12 is a control valve operating valve, and 13 is in a glove box. If necessary, separate separator plates to prevent the flow of beverage containers.

The present invention as described above is discharged by fixing the cool air generated by the liquid state of the compressor body by using the engine power of the vehicle in the selector (1) in the bottom and left and right pinnel (4) in the vehicle (2a) ( 2b) (2c) sends the cooling gas to the room, but it is already known to control the temperature of the car by adjusting the degree of cooling and the blowing power with the low-lever (not shown) located in the driver's seat. .

In order to fix various gauges and control levers, and to make the pessimism in the car beautiful, panel 4 is installed horizontally across the width of the driver's seat, and documents or other objects are generally located next to the driver's seat. Grove box (A) can be stored in most vehicles are installed.

The glove box (A) is a structure in which the body of the glove box (A) is rotated when the opening and closing of the glove box (A) as shown in the attached drawings 2 and 3 only the opening of the enclosure. The lower end of the panel and the panel 4 are pivotally connected to each other by a pin or the like, and when closed, the groove box A is sealed by a cover part 4 'which is integrally bent at the bottom of the panel A. When it is cut off from the outside.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 4, in forming the glove box A according to a vehicle model or a selection at the time of manufacture, the upper cover and the side part are integrally formed by cutting the panel 4. In this case, only the front cover part 4 "is rotated, and in some cases, the groove box A is used as the space formed by the panel 4 and the front cover part 4".

Here, in accordance with the purpose of the present invention connected to the selector duct 1 toward the glove box (A) in the middle of the connecting pipe (2a) connected to the side outlet (3a) to connect the interconnection pipe 5 , Through the intermittent valve (6), the cold air flows into the inside of the glove box (A) through several inlet pipes (7), the reason why the inlet pipe (7) relatively close to the bottom of the glove box (A) When the groove box (A) is rotated, it is better to reduce the flow length of the inflow pipe (7) having good flexibility, such as a bellows pipe.

At this time, the reason for branching the inlet pipe 7 into several is to increase the effect by allowing the cold air to be evenly filled in the groove box (A), the intermittent valve (6) formed in the middle of the connecting pipe (7) The control knob was formed on one side of the gauge operating part of the driver's seat while being connected with the cable 12 to control the cold air flowing into the glove box A so that the flow rate could be adjusted at the same time. .

Therefore, even when winter or summer does not require a refrigerator, when cold food is not required, the cold air flowing into the Grove Box A is completely blocked to store documents and various objects as before. The amount of flow is controlled according to the quantity and type, and the existing air conditioner's performance control lever can freely control the cold air, thus eliminating unnecessary energy waste by maintaining the proper temperature.

When a part of the cold air sent from the selector duct 1 is introduced into the grove box A by the above method, the indoor air is cooled, and then the grove box A is replaced to replace the new cold air. The cold air first introduced along the bypass pipe 8 connected to each other through the side and the connecting pipe 2a is mixed with the cold air transferred to the connecting pipe 2a to be discharged to the outlet 3a. 3a), the capacity generated by the air conditioning system already installed in the vehicle is reused for cooling in the vehicle almost without being reduced by the operation of the refrigerator compartment, and thus consumes the engine power to operate the currently used air conditioner. Other than that, there is no separate power use or gasoline waste.

According to the experiments of the present inventors, the temperature difference between the refrigerating compartment in the glove box (A) is somewhat different depending on the air conditioner performance difference between the small car and the large car. It can be seen that the temperature of the refrigerator currently used at home is maintained above, and in the case of a large car, the temperature is lowered from 1.5 ° C to 2.5 ° C.

The present invention as described above can meet the needs of many consumers by making the production cost increase or cost hardly increased by branching the air conditioner pipe without changing or reducing the interior space of the existing vehicle, In addition to providing cool foods anytime and anywhere in hot summer season without increasing fuel consumption or engine power performance, the refrigerator is equipped with a refrigerator compartment in a location that can be easily used by the driver. It is a useful design to be able.
