Description of the Invention (1) The present invention relates to a refrigerator; and more specifically, to a method for controlling its operation. As is well known, a refrigerator performs cooling and freezing functions through its cooling system. Generally, a cooling system includes three basic elements, namely an evaporator, a compressor and a condenser. In operation, the compressor compresses the low-temperature and low-pressure coolant gas from the evaporator into a high-temperature and high-pressure coolant gas and the condenser condenses the high-temperature and high-pressure coolant gas from the compressor into high-temperature and high-pressure cooling.剂 液。 Liquid. The high-temperature and high-pressure coolant liquid is changed to a low-temperature and low-pressure coolant liquid and flows into the evaporator through an expansion pipe. The low-temperature and low-pressure coolant liquid absorbs heat from the air around the internal temperature to cool the air. In order to efficiently cool the air and thus increase the cooling efficiency, one or two evaporator fans and one condenser fan are usually used in the refrigerator. In a refrigerator having a freezer and a refrigerator compartment using only one evaporator fan, the operating rate of the evaporator fan is determined based on the internal temperature of the refrigerator compartment, and two separate evaporators are used for the freezer and the refrigerator compartment. In a refrigerator fan, the rotation speed of the evaporator fan is independently determined by the internal temperature of the refrigerator compartment and the freezer compartment. However, this type of refrigerator has the lack of annoying noise generated by fans and compressors, especially at night. Furthermore, when the internal temperature of the refrigerator is increased to an undesired level, it is difficult to quickly return to the desired level. Therefore, one object of the present invention is to provide a refrigerator operation control method, which can quickly control the increased internal temperature of a refrigerator by selectively controlling a frozen paper size to comply with the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) (please (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) Threading _ Printed by the Employees' Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 509777 A7 B7 V.

Note that if one room is in day mode, the other is also in day mode. Similarly, if one is in the night mode, the other is also in the night mode. When the refrigerator is in a day mode, the condenser fan 116 is operated at a high speed (10V). In night mode, it rotates at low speed (8V). When a room is in night / normal mode, night / overload mode or night / fast mode, the corresponding fan rotates at low (8V), medium (1QV) or high (14V) speed, respectively. When a room is in day / normal mode, the corresponding fan operates at medium speed (10V). The fan operates at high speed (14V) when a room is in day / overload mode or day / fast mode. For example, when the freezer and the refrigerator compartment are in day / normal mode and day / fast mode, respectively, the fan driving unit 11 8, 1, 20, 1 22 applies 10V, 14V and 10V to their corresponding fans 112, 114, 116. And when the size of the cold paper is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) Order-Line Printed by the Intellectual Property Bureau Employee Consumer Cooperative of the Ministry of Economy 509777 A7 ____B7 5 6. Description of the invention (6) The freezer and refrigerator compartments are respectively in the night / overload mode and night / normal mode, the fan driving units 118, 120, 122 apply 10V, 8V and 8V to their corresponding fans 112, 114, 116. In doing so, it may generate operating noise of the refrigerator at night. A refrigerator operation control method according to the present invention will now be described with reference to Figs. Since the freezer and the refrigerator compartment are operated independently of each other as described above, the operation of the refrigerator will be described in terms of one compartment. When power is applied to the refrigerator from the off state, each room is first operated in a preset mode, that is, daytime / normal mode (step S2GG); and the control unit 124 checks the initial daytime / normal mode Whether the operation time (tl) is less than the preset starting operation time (tl '), that is, 4 hours (step S202). If the working time (tl) becomes equal to 4 hours, the process proceeds to step S204, otherwise returns to step S2 0 0. In step S2G4, the control unit 124 determines whether the fast mode setting unit 102 is activated for the room. If so, the process proceeds to step S206, otherwise, to step S210. In step S206, the room is operated in a day / fast or night / fast mode depending on the light level detected by the light level detection unit 110. In step S208, the control unit 124 determines whether the fast modal completion condition is satisfied, and if not, the process returns to step S206, otherwise it proceeds to step S210. The rapid modal operation time of the freezer chamber is completed when its operation time becomes equal to, for example, a preset rapid modal operation time of 150 minutes.

Description of the Invention (7) The device room was operated for 90 minutes in rapid mode, and then operated for 60 minutes in normal mode. The fast mode of the refrigerator room reaches the preset refrigerator operating time such as 4G minutes, or the difference between the refrigerator room temperature and the preset target temperature detected by the temperature sensor 107 becomes the preset temperature such as 7 ° C. The time was completed. In step S210, the control unit 124 checks whether there is an excessive load condition. As described above, if one of the chambers is opened, for example, for more than 30 seconds, or if the internal temperature of the chamber is increased by more than a preset target temperature to reach 5 ° C, such overload conditions are declared. If the excessive loads are valid, the process proceeds to step S212, otherwise to step S218. In step S212, the room is operated in a day / overload mode or a night / overload mode depending on the detected light level. The process then proceeds to step S214. In step S214, the control unit 124 determines whether the overload modal completion condition is satisfied. If not, the process proceeds to step S216, and if it is satisfied, the process proceeds to step S2 18. The overload mode is completed when its operating time becomes, for example, a preset overload mode equal to 20 minutes or the control (T) of the chamber is lower than or equal to a preset target temperature (T ') of the chamber. In step S2 16, the control unit 124 decides whether the quick mode setting unit 102 has been activated for the room. If activated, the process proceeds to step S2 06, otherwise returns to step S212. In step S218, the room is operated in a day / normal mode or a night / normal mode depending on the detected light level. The whole process is repeated from step S204 to power off (S22 0). —10- This is the Standard for Financial Standards (CNS) Α4 Specification (21GX297mm) '(Please read the precautions for nitrogen before filling this page) Order Printed by the Intellectual Property Bureau Employee Consumer Cooperative of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 509777 A7 B7 V.
