Description

Description REFRIGERATOR BODY AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME Technical Field
[1] The present invention relates to a refrigerator body and a method of manufacturing the same, and more particularly, to a refrigerator body and a method of manufacturing the same, wherein a foaming preparation operation can be rapidly and easily performed and a foam insulation material is prevented from leaking into the interior of a refrigerator. Background Art
[2] Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a conventional refrigerator, Fig. 2 is a front view of a glide rail shown in FIG. 1, and Fig. 3 is a partial sectional view of a region where the glide rail shown in Fig. 1 is installed. As shown in these figures, the refrigerator comprises a body 11 with a freezing chamber 21 and a refrigerating chamber 31 formed at both sides of a vertically arranged partition 13, and a freezing chamber door 23 and a refrigerating chamber door 33 hingedly coupled to the body 11 to open and close front openings of the freezing and refrigerating chambers 21 and 31, respectively.
[3] The interiors of the freezing and refrigerating chambers 21 and 31 are provided with a plurality of shelves 25 and 35 arranged at vertical intervals to be spaced apart from one another, for partitioning inner spaces of the chambers and simultaneously supporting stored goods thereon.
[4] A drawer 37, which can be taken out in a fore and aft direction, is provided at a lower region of the refrigerator 31. Both side edges of the drawer 37 are formed with flanges 38 that protrude widthwise and extend in the fore and aft direction.
[5] Glide rails 41 are installed on both sidewalls of the refrigerating chamber 31 to extend in the fore and aft direction, thereby guiding the withdrawal and reception of the drawer 37 from and in the refrigerating chamber. Each of the glide rails 41 is formed with a receiving groove 42 such that the corresponding flange 38 of the drawer 37 can be received in and engaged with the receiving groove. Screw holes 43 are formed through the glide rails within the receiving grooves 42 so that the glide rails 41 can be fastened to the both sidewalls of the refrigerating chamber 31 by means of screws 45. Rollers 44 are provided at front regions of the glide rails to be in rolling contact with the flanges 38 of the drawer 37. [6] Meanwhile, the body 11 comprises an outer case 51 for defining an external appearance, and an inner case 52 for defining the freezing and refrigerating chambers 21 and 31 arranged inside the outer case 51 to be spaced apart therefrom with a filling gap that will be filled with a foam insulation material 57.
[7] Regions on a portion of the inner case 52 defining the refrigerating chamber 31 where the glide rails 41 will be installed are formed with through-holes 53 through which the screws 45 penetrate. A bushing 55 embedded in the wall of the refrigerator body is inserted into and coupled to each of the through-holes 53 at a side of the bushing. The bushing 55 is formed with a screw hole 56 through which the screw 45 is inserted.
[8] Ibwever, such a conventional refrigerator has a problem in that since the bushings 55 should be inserted into and coupled to the respective through-holes 53 and a foaming operation should be performed by injecting the foam insulation material 57 in the form of liqiid into the space between the inner and outer cases 52 and 51, the foam insulation material 57 leaks into the interior of the refrigerator through the through- holes 53 during the foaming operation. If tapes are attached around the bushings 55 in consideration of this problem, there are problems in that it takes a great deal of time and efforts to prepare the foaming operation and the leak of the foam insulation material 57 into the interior of the refrigerator through the through-holes 53 cannot be fundamentally avoided. Disclosure of Invention Technical Problem
[9] Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a refrigerator body and a method of manufacturing the same, wherein a foaming preparation operation can be rapidly and easily performed, a foam insulation material is prevented from leaking into the interior of a refrigerator, availability of the interior of the refrigerator is improved since a part of a shelve can be supported by the refrigerator body, and workability is also enhanced since fastening positions are glided upon installation of reinforcement members on the exterior of an inner case or assembly of interior materials on the inner case. Technical Solution
[10] According to an aspect of the present invention for achieving the object, there is provided a refrigerator body including an outer case for defining an external appearance and an inner case for defining the interior of a refrigerator and having a foam insulation material filled into a space between the outer and inner cases, comprising recessed portions depressed at the inside of the inner case and protruding outside thereof in a direction of thickness of the inner case so as to fix a part to be installed and mounted on the inside of the inner case; and reinforcement members installed to be tightly coupled to the recessed portions at the outside of the inner case so as to reinforce the recessed portions.
[11] Preferably, the reinforcement members are formed with screw holes to which screws that have passed through the recessed portions can be coupled.
[12] The refrigerator body may advantageously fiirther comprise protrusion holders received in recessed sections of the recessed portions on the side of a refrigerating chamber of the refrigerator so as to receive and support fixing protrusions of a shelf.
[13] According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of manufacturing a refrigerator body, comprising the steps of forming an inner case such that the inner case has recessed portions depressed at the inside of the inner case and protruding outside thereof in a direction of thickness of the inner case; coupling reinforcement members to the recessed portions at the outside of the inner case; arranging an outer case outside the inner case with a filling gap for a foam insulation material therebetween; and foaming and filling the foam insulation material between the inner and outer cases.
[14] Preferably, after the step of foaming and filling the foam insulation material, the method fiirther comprises the step of fastening an article to the reinforcement members by means of screws so as to fix the article to the inside of the inner case. Advantageous Effects
[15] According to the present invention described above, in order to fix an article to be installed and mounted on the inside of an inner case, the inner case is formed with recessed portions depressed at the inside of the inner case and protruding outside thereof in a direction of thickness of the inner case, and reinforcement members are provided to be tightly coupled to the recessed portions at the outside of the inner case. Thus, there are advantages in that such a foaming preparation operation can be rapidly and easily performed, and a foam insulation material can be prevented from leaking into the interior of a refrigerator.
[16] Further, since the recessed portions are depressed at one side of the inner case and outwardly protrude at the other side thereof, it is possible to find mounting positions of the reinforcement members and interior materials, thereby improving assemblability.
[17] Moreover, according to the refrigerator body and the method of manufacturing the same according to the present invention, since it is not necessary to beforehand form screw holes on the inner case, there are advantages in that the assembly and structural performance of the product can be improved and leak of a foam insulation material can be fundamentally prevented upon fastening of interior materials.

[26] Fig. 7 is a sectional view taken along line NII-NII of Fig. 6. Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention
[27] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[28] Fig. 4 is an enlarged view showing essential portions of a refrigerator body according to an embodiment of the present invention, and Fig. 5 is a sectional view illustrating a coupled state of a reinforcement member shown in Fig. 4. For the sake of convenience of description of the drawings, illustration of parts identical or substantially identical with the structures illustrated and described above will be omitted and the like parts are designated by like reference numerals. As shown in these figures, the refrigerator body 1 of this embodiment comprises an outer case 51 for defining an external appearance; an inner case 62 that is arranged inside the outer case 51 to be spaced apart therefrom with a filling gap for a foam insulation material 57 therebetween and is formed with recessed portions 63 depressed at one side of the inner case and protruding at the other side thereof in a direction of thickness of the re- frigerator body so as to support an object; and reinforcement members 65 coupled to the recessed portions 63 to reinforce the recessed portions 63.
[29] In each of regions on the inner case 62 where glide rails 41 are installed, each of the recessed portions 63 is formed by being depressed from a refrigerating chamber 31 to protrude outside the refrigerating chamber 31 in the direction of thickness of the refrigerator body. The reinforcement member 65 implemented in the form of a bushing is coupled at the rear of the recessed portion 63 so that a screw 45 is coupled to the reinforcement member and the reinforcement member can reinforce the strength of the recessed portion 63. The reinforcement member 65 is formed with a recessed, receiving portion 66 for accommodating a protruding section of the recessed portion 63. A screw hole 67 into which a leading end of the screw 45 is inserted and coupled is formed at a side of the receiving portion 66 on a line of insertion of the screw 45.

Subsequently, the outer case 51 is ananged outside the inner case 62 to be spaced apart therefrom with a filling gap for the foam insulation material 57 therebetween. Thus, such a foaming preparation operation can be rapidly and easily performed. When the foaming preparation operation has been completed, a foaming operation is performed by injecting the foam insulation material 57 in the form of liquid into the space between the inner and outer cases 62 and 51.
[31] Meanwhile, when the glide rails 41 are intended to be installed, the screw holes 43 of each of the glide rails 41 should be placed over the respective recessed portions 63, and each of the screws 45 is fastened by being inserted and pressed into the corresponding screw hole 43 such that the leading end of the screw 45 penetrates through the conesponding recessed portion 63. The screw 45 that has penetrated through the recessed portion 63 is fastened to the screw hole 67 of the reinforcement member 65 so that the glide rail 41 is integrally fixed to an inner wall of the inner case 62.
[32] Fig. 6 is an enlarged view showing essential portions of a refrigerator body according to another embodiment of the present invention, and Fig. 7 is a sectional view taken along line NII-NII of Fig. 6. As shown in these figures, the refrigerator body 11 comprises an outer case 51 for defining an external appearance; an inner case 72 that is ananged inside the outer case 51 to be spaced apart therefrom with a filling gap for a foam insulation material 57 therebetween and is formed with recessed portions 73 depressed from a freezing chamber 21 and protruding outside the freezing chamber 21; reinforcement members 75 coupled, at the outside of the inner case 72, to the recessed portions 73 to reinforce the strength of the recessed portions 73; and protrusion holders 79 inserted into and coupled to recessed regions of the inner case on the side of the freezing chamber 21 to receive and support fixing protrusions 83 of shelves 81.
[33] The rectangular shelves 81 made of wires are installed within the freezing chamber 21, and each of the shelves 81 is formed, at comer regions of both side edges thereof, with the plurality of fixing protrusions 83 protruding widthwise thereof.
[34] Meanwhile, the plurality of recessed portions 73 depressed from the freezing chamber 21 and protruding outside the freezing chamber 21 are formed at regions of the inner case 72 where the shelves 81 are installed. Each of the reinforcement members 75 with a receiving portion 76 formed at one side thereof to receive a protruding section of each of the recessed portions 73 is coupled to the protruding section of the recessed portion 73. Each of the protrusion holders 79, which has one side depressed to receive the fixing protrusion 83 of one of the shelves 81 and the other side protruding to be inserted into the recessed portion 73, is inserted into and coupled to the recessed regions of the inner case 72 on the side of the freezing chamber 21.
[35] Wth such a structure, the inner case 72 is formed to have the recessed portions 73 depressed at the inside of the inner case to protrude outside the inner case in the direction of thickness of the refrigerator body, and the reinforcement members 75 are coupled, at the outside of the inner case 72, to the protruding sections of the respective recessed portions 73. Subsequently, the outer case 51 is ananged outside the inner case 72 to be spaced apart therefrom with the filling gap for the foam insulation material 57 therebetween.
[36] When the foaming preparation operation has been completed, a foaming operation is performed by injecting the foam insulation material 57 in the form of liquid into the space between the inner and outer cases 72 and 51, and the protrusion holder 79 is inserted into the recessed portion 73 to be coupled thereto.
[37] Meanwhile, each shelf 81 is installed in such a manner that the respective fixing protrusions 83 thereof is received in and supported by the protrusion holders 79.
[38] Although the refrigerator body and the method of manufacturing the same according to the present invention have been described above by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings, the present invention is not limited to the em- bodiments described above and the drawings. It will be apparent that those skilled in the art can make various modifications thereto within the scope and basic technical spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention should be construed based on the appended claims. [39]
