Definitions

  • the present invention relates to household refrigerators and is particularly concerned with a combination refrigerator comprising Ia freezing compartment and a fresh food compartment separated by an insulated partition and a single evaporator contained within the partition for supplying refrigerated air to both compartments.
  • Combination refrigerators including a single evaporator and a single fan for circulating air from the freezer and fresh food compartments over the evaporator are well known. In the operation of such refrigerators, a major portion of the refrigerated air from the evaporator is directed in to the freezer compartment while a smaller portion is directed into the fresh food compartment.
  • su-ch refrigerators have the additional advantage of permitting automatic defrost of the evaporator which is contained within an evaporator housing or compartment outside of or separate from both of the storage compartments without significantly disturbing the temperatures of those compartments during defrost.
  • the present invention is generally directed to a refrigerator of this type including new and improved means for cooling and circulating the cooled air to the two compartments and for periodically warming the evaporator to defrost temperatures and disposing of the defrost water.
  • a refrigerator cabinet comprising insulated walls and an insulated partition deiining a freezer compartment in the upper portion of the cabinet and a fresh food compartment below the freezing compartment ⁇ and separated therefrom by the partition.
  • the partition forms the bottom wal-l of the freezer compartment and the top wall of the fresh food compartment.
  • the partition comprises a bottom surface of sheet material forming the top wall of the fresh food compartment and a layer or body of foam insulation supported on this sheet material is shaped to define an evaporator chamber containing a -iin-on-tube evaporator comprising spaced parallel fins and transverse tube passes.
  • a single fan supported within 4the partition draws air from both of the compartments through the chamber and through the evaporator in a path parallel to the fins -and discharges the cooled air to the two compartments.
  • the air supplied to the freezer compartment is introduced into that compartment adjacent the rear wall thereof and is received in a tunnel member supported on the partition and including top and side walls defining a chamber for the storage of one or more freezing trays. Air from this tunnel membei' is introduced into the freezer compartment through a plurality of openings spaced along the sides thereof and additional openings provided in the front portion of the top of the tunnel.
  • the evaporator is so constructed that the ends of the fins which are initially contacted by the circulating air from the two compartments are of a -length sufficient that the edges thereof operate at a more elevated temperature than 3,324,678 Patented June 13, 1967 ICC the remaining tin structure closer to a tube pass so that frost collects to only a minimum extent on these leading edges.
  • radiant heating means comprising a radiant electric heater wire enclosed within a quartz tube, this heating means extending through a center portion of the evaporator transversely of the fins whereby heat from the heater radiates to all surfaces of the fins.
  • Defrost water from the evaporator is collected in the bottom of the evaporator chamber and is drained through a drain hole provided in the foam insulation into a channel formed in the bottom surface of the partition, which channel in turn discharges the defrost water onto a wall of the fresh food compartment.
  • the drain hole which is upstream from the fan is kept open by circulation of relatively warm air from the fresh food compartment upwardly through the channel and drain hole when the fan is operating.
  • FIGURE l is a vertical side sectional view of a twotemperature refrigerator embodying the present invention.
  • FIGURE 2 is a horizontal sectional view taken generally along -line 2 2 of FIGURE 1;
  • FIGURE 3 is a sectional view illustrating the frosting operation of the preferred evaporator structure
  • FIGURE 4 is a view similar to FIGURE 3 illustrating ing the operation of the usual evaporator during frost formation thereon;
  • FIGURE 5 is a wiring diagram of a control circuitry for controlling the operation of the refrigerator.
  • a refrigerator comprising insulated walls dening an upper freezer compartment 1 intended to operate at a temperature below freezing and a lower fresh food compartment 2 adapted to operate at an above freezing temperature of about 35 to 40 F.
  • the two compartments are separated by a horizontal insulating partition 3.
  • the access opening to the freezer compartment 1 is closed by means of an insulated door 4 while the access opening to the fresh food compartment 2 is closed by means of an insulated door 5.
  • a machinery compartment 6 in the lower portion of the cabinet contains the refrigerant condensing unit of a refrigeration system including a hermetic motor drive compressor 7 and a condenser 8.
  • the single evaporator 9 for refrigerating the two compartments 1 and 2 is contained within an evaporator chamber 16 formed within the insulated partition 3. It is understood that the compressor 7, the condenser 8, suitable ilow restricting means (not shown) and the evaporator 9 are connected in closed series flow relationship to form the usual closed refrigerant circuit.
  • air streams from these two compartments are passed over the evaporator 9 and refrigerated or cooled air streams are returned to the compartments by means of a single fan generally indicated by the numeral 12. More specifically, the inlet portion or end 14 of the evaporator chamber 10 is connected to the freezer compartment by a relatively large -louvered inlet 15 extending across the forward end of the partition 3 within the freezer compartment 1 and the major portion of the air cooled or refrigerated by the evaporator 9 is returned to -the freezer compartment through ,an air passage 16 adjacent the outlet from the fan 12.
  • This Iair leaving the passage 16 flows into the rear end of a tunnel 17 provided in ,the bottom of the freezer compartment 1 for the storage of one or more freezing trays 18 and passes from the tunnel into the freezer compartment through a plurality of louvers 19 provided in the side walls of the tunnel and a second set of louvers 20 provided in the top Iwall of the tunnel adjacent the front of the tunnel.
  • the access opening at the front of the tunnel 17 is closed by a solid pivoted door 21.
  • the partition 3 comprises a lower horizontal member 26 substantially coextensive with the interior of the cabinet on which is supported a body or layer of insulating material Z7 formed to define the evaporator chamber or cavity 10.
  • a cap of insulating material 28 substantially closes the top of this chamber 1G and another member 29 of sheet material positioned over the cap 28 forms the bottom wall of the freezer compartment 1.
  • the evaporator 9 is positioned within the forward end of the chamber 10 that is adjacent the air inlets 15 and 22 and the concave walls of the chamber in this area are covered by a metal drain ⁇ pan 31 on which the evaporator 9 is supported and which is designed to receive condensate from the evaporator during the defrost operation. To assure defrosting of the pan portions thereof are in thermal contact Iwith the evaporator.
  • the evaporator 9 as is more clearly shown in FIG- URE 2 of the drawing, comprises a plurality of transversed refrigerant tubular passes 33 and a plurality of lins 34 extending transversely of the passes 33 in a direction generally parallel to the direction of ow of air through the chamber 10 as the air travels from the inlet passages and 22 to the fan v12 positioned in the rear portion of the chamber 10.
  • the evaporator is directly supported on the pan 31.
  • the forward or inlet end of the evaporator that is the portion of the evaporator first contacted by the air streams from the freezer and fresh ⁇ food compartments as the air streams enter the evaporator chamber 10 is so constructed as to permit the accumulation of a greater amount of frost on the evaporator without plugging or closing of the spaces between the ns than is possible fwith the usual fin-ontube evaporator.
  • FIGURE 4 of the drawing showing the usual evaporator structure comprising a plurality of refrigerant passes 33 and a plurality of fins 34 extending transversely of the passes 33.
  • the evaporator is constructed as shown in FIGURE 3 of the drawing so that the forward or lead end portions 40 of the fins 34, that is the portions extending upstream from the -first pass 41 are suiciently long so that the edges 42 thereof operate at temperatures sufciently higher than the temperatures of the refrigerant ⁇ passes 33 as to substantially -eliminate or reduce the initial formation of frost thereon.
  • n length upstream from the pass 41 should be increased to prevent inlet blocking will vary with the application and evaporator construction but in most household refrigerator evaporators an increase in length of about one-half inch over the normal length is usually sufficient.
  • the usual length of the portion of the 1in projecting from the first pass 41 is about one-half the length of the portion of the fin between any two adjacent passes 33 of the evaporator.
  • alternate fins may also be shortened or in other words terminated short of the first pass 41 of the evaporator 9 as illustrated in FIGURE 2 of the drawing.
  • a radiant heater generally indicated by the numeral 44 and comprising a quartz tube 45 enclosing a coiled electric heater 46, the heater 44 extending transversely of the entire iin structure of the evaporator or in other words parallel to the passes 33 as illustrated in FIGURE 2 of the drawing.
  • This radiant heater is positioned within a slot 47 (FIGURE 1) in the fin structure so that it is substantially centrally located within the evaporator and close to the pan 31.
  • a metallic cap 48- which functions as a reflector to more effectively heat the metal drain pan 31 positioned below the evaporator and prevents overheating of the layer or cap of insulation 28 forming the top surface or wall of the chamber 10.
  • the cap 48 also largely eliminates water dripping on the hot heater during defrost which can cause objectionable noises.
  • the single radiant heater defrosts all of the surfaces within the evaporator largely due to the fact that the radiant heat therefrom reaches the most remote surface areas of the evaporator through the spaces 39.
  • the pan 31 and the body of insulating material 27 are provided with a drain passage 49 positioned to be directly warmed by heat from the radiant heater and through which condensate drains onto a channel 48 in the sheet member 26.
  • the channel 48 is designed so that the water flowing down through the channel flows onto the back wall 50 of the compartment 2 through a drain tube 51, downwardly along the back wall 50 to the bottom of the compartment 2 and through a second drain opening 52 into a drain pan (not shown) in the machinery compartment 6 in which the defrost water is evaporated by the heat from the condensing unit contained therein.
  • the refrigerator is designed for periodic removal of the frost layer from the evaporator 9 by operation of the heater 44.
  • the control circuitry for this operation is illustrated in FIGURE 5 of the drawing as including a defrost timer 56 including a timer motor 57 connected across the supply lines 58 and 59 through a thermostat 66 positioned at some point within the fresh food compartment 2 so as to be responsive to the temperature therein.
  • the timer 56 includes a double throw switch operated by the timer motor 57 and including a first contact 61 which is normally engaged by the switch arm 62 to complete a circuit energizing both the fan 12 and the compressor 7 when the thermostat 60 calls for cooling.
  • the timer switch After a predetermined period of operation of the timer, the timer switch operates to move the switch arm 52 out of contact with the contact 61 and into engagement with the contact 64 thereby opening the circuit to the fan and compressor and closing the circuit including the defrost heater 44 for a period of time sucient to assure complete defrosting of the evaporator.
  • the energization of the heater 44 is also under the control of a defrost terminating switch 65 illustrated in FIGURE 2 as being in heat exchange relationship with a portion of the pan 31 forwardly from the evaporator 9 and a safety fuse 66 positioned between the evaporator 9 and the fan 12 and designed to open the circuit to the defrost heater in case of abnormal temperatures within the chamber 10.
  • the switch 65 will open the circuit whenever the temperatures sensed thereby indicate a complete defrosting of the evaporator and surrounding surface areas thereof such as the pan 31.
  • the timer motor 57 returns the switch arm 62 into engagement with the contact 61 thereby returning the refrigerator to a normal cooling cycle of operation under the control of the thermostat 60.
