REFRIGERATOR CONSTRUCTION.
i a citizen of the United States of America,
residing at New York city, New York, have invented a new and useful Refrigerator Construction, of which the following is a specification.' y
' My invention relates to an improved refrigerator construction and aims more particularly at improving the frame thereof whereby such parts may be standardized. By standardizing such parts, great economy is effected in the manufacture of such goods. While lf have shown my invention as applied tov one form of refrigerator obviously the same may be modified in a variety of ways.
ln the drawings:
Figure 1 is a front elevation on a small scale of a refrigerator constructed to embody my invention.
Fig. 2 is a plan view thereof.
Fig. 3 is a view of a short section of. a framing piece, relatively enlarged.
Fig. 4 is a section on the line 4-4 of Fig. 1. t
Fig. 5 is a perspective viewof a mod1lication.
Fig. 6 is a view) of the underside of Fig. 1.
Fig. 7 is a section of a modification.
In building the frame of the refrigerator, I employ preferably at all corners strips of molding forming framing pieces shaped substantially as shown in Fig. 3, that'is to say, the two outer sides of the strip are smooth and arranged at right angles to each other, the other two sides are grooved longitudinally with the desired number of grooves. The corner between the two grooved sides is cut back or beveled, forming in effect a dove-tailed piece at what is the inside corner of the framing piece, this being advantageous for the purpose later seen. ln forming the frame the four upright corner pieces 1, 2, 8, 4 will rst be suitably secured together with the beveled corners arranged to face inwardly. llf desired, the top of the case may then be formed of the four pieces 5, 6, 7 and 8, the corners being properly mitered and united by any suitable fastening means such as the fasteners`9-9. In forming the top, the lining member 10 may be inserted into the grooves of the aforesaid dpieces, as best seen 1n Fig. 1. The sides an Specification of Letters Patent.

lining pieces as indicated at 11, 12, 13,these lining pieces sliding into the grooves in the upright corner pieces. The bottom is formed like the top and is provided with the lower or bottom lining 14. The legs of the refrigerator are indicated at 15-15 and the corners of the bottom frame are cut away as indicated in Fig. 6 to afford clearance for the legs. The legs are formed bythe solid ungrooved parts of the lower ends of the upright members 1, 2, 3 and' 4, the grooved portions and the dove-tailed corner pleces being trimmed off as shown in Figs. l and 6. rlhis permits the lower' panel or frame to be pushed into place between the legs and properly secured. The frame-work thus constructed with the top, bottom, side and rear lining members in place is vthen ready to receive the finishing work which may comprise filling in the panels on the outside. Thesepanels may beformed of any suitable insulating compound or material such as indicated at rllhis insulating material may be held in place in any suitable way. When a second set of grooves is present, this material may project into and be locked in said grooves.
In the drawingsl have shown the framing strip provided with two sets of grooves,
for example, 17-18 indicate the inner set and 19-20 the outer set (see Fig. 3). The outer set 19-20 are useful for various purposes, for example, a second lining piece might be slid into place, in which event there would be two linings with an air space between them, as indicated in the detail view, Fig. 7, the two linings therein shown being indicated at 21-22.
The dove-tailed inner corner of each framing piece provides a beveled filler at each inner corner of the refrigerator, as indicated at 2324-25, Fig. 1, and at 26, 27, 28 and 29, Fig. 4. lf desired, the dove-tailed corner piece may be provided with a metallic covering as indicated at 30, Fig. 5, it being desirable in-high grade boxes to avoid as far as possible the exposure of wood within the refrigerator.
lt should be understood that the box as illustrated may be, if desired, covered' with any suitable sheet metal, or might be finished in any desired way.
lln some constructions it may be desirable `to introduce at intervalscross braces between theframlng pleces, such cross bracesmay be provided with tongues adapted to project into the outer grooves. Such braces are indicated at 31`3L What I claim is:
1. In a refrigerator construction, a frame forming the main skeleton of said refrigerator and comprising integral supporting members suitably connected, said members having therein inner and outer longitudinal grooves in each of two adjacent sides, a sanitary lining member projecting into and held by the Walls of a plurality of said inner grooves, and a panel member of different material projecting into and held by the Walls oa plurality of said outer grooves,
said lining and panel member being held against displacement by those parts of the frame engaging the same, said members being inserted in said grooves before the frame members are completely assembled, and a beveled corner portion between the inner lining receiving grooves on certain of said frame members, and a metal covering for said beveled corner portion, the edges meevalt of said metal covering extending into said inner grooves to hold said metal covering in place.
2. 1n a refrigerator construction, a frame forming the main skeleton of said refrigerator comprising inte ral supporting members suitably connecte said members having therein inner and outer longitudinal grooves in each of two adjacent sides, a sanitary lining member retained entirely by said inner groove and a heat insulating panel member of different material retained` by said outer groove, said lining and panel member being retained in the respective grooves of said integral members independent of any other holdin means, said lining member being inserted 1n said inner groove before said frame members are completely assembled, and a beveled corner portion between Said inner lining receiving grooves, a metal covering for said corner, the edges of said metal covering being held in the same groove as said inner lining member.
