Description

冰箱
本申请要求了申请日为2016年11月11日,申请号为2016-220585,发明名称为“冰箱”的日本专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本发明涉及在贮藏室内冷却保存食品等的冰箱,特别涉及具备适当封堵与贮藏室相连的风路的遮蔽装置的冰箱。
背景技术
现有技术中,已知专利文献1:JP特开2013-2664号公报记载那样的用一个冷却器适当冷却多个贮藏室的冰箱。图9示意示出记载于该文献的冰箱100。在图9所示的冰箱100中,从上方起形成有冷藏室101、冷冻室102以及保鲜室103。在冷冻室102的里侧形成有收纳冷却器108的冷却室104,在区划壁105形成有用于将冷气提供给各贮藏室的开口部106,该区划壁105将冷却室104与冷冻室102进行区划。另外,在该开口部106配设有送出冷气的送风风扇107,送风风扇在冷冻室102侧配置有覆盖该送风风扇107的送风机外罩110。在提供给冷藏室101的冷气所流通的风路109的中途配设有风挡(damper)114。
参考图10来详述所述送风机外罩110。送风机外罩110形成有呈大致四角形形状的凹部111,将凹部111的上部部分开槽而形成有开口部113。在此,在送风机外罩110覆盖所述送风风扇107的状况下,送风机外罩110的开口部113与冰箱主体侧的风路109连通。
所述构成的冰箱100如下那样动作。参考图9,首先在将冷藏室101以及冷冻室102两方冷却的情况下,使送风机外罩110与送风风扇107分开,打开风挡114,在该状态下使送风风扇107旋转。于是,在冷却室104的内部被冷却器108冷却后的冷气的一部分凭借送风风扇107的送风力被送风到冷冻室102。另外,该冷气的其他一部分经由风路109、风挡114以及风路109被送风到冷藏室101。由此冷冻室102和冷藏室101两方被冷却。
另一方面,在仅将冷藏室101冷却时,将送风风扇107用送风机外罩110覆盖,打开风挡114,将在该状态下被冷却器108冷却的冷气用送风风扇107进行送风。若使送风机外罩110成为关闭状态,则形成于送风机外罩110的上部的开口部113与风路109连通。因而被送风风扇107送风的冷气经由所述开口部113、风挡114、风路109被提供给冷藏室101。
如上述那样,通过使用形成有开口部113的送风机外罩110,能用一个冷却器108适当冷却多个贮藏室。
然而,在专利文献1:JP特开2013-2664号公报记载的冰箱中,从将冷气高效地送风到各贮藏室的效率性的观点出发还有改善的余地。具体而言,如参考图9说明的那样,若在用送风机外罩110覆盖送风风扇107的状态下将冷气送风到冷藏室101,则送风机外罩110的内部的压力损失会变大。如此,存在如下课题:提供到冷藏室101的冷气的风量会不充分,为了将冷藏室101冷却到给定的温度,送风风扇107需要长时间运转,有违节能。
另外,仅用送风机外罩110覆盖开口部106有可能造成气密性不足。在此情况下,在冷却时,由于从送风机外罩110的周围漏出冷气,因此难以担保贮藏库的温度调节的正确性。另外,在除霜时,由于从送风机外罩110的周围泄漏暖风,因此可以预料无法高效地除霜。
发明内容
为至少解决所述技术问题之一,所述其目的在于,提供确保了用遮蔽装置将冷却室的开口部关闭时的气密性的冰箱。
为实现所述发明目的之一,本发明一实施方式提供了一种冰箱,具备:冷却器,其将经由提供风路提供到贮藏室的空气进行冷却;冷却室,其配设有所述冷却器,并形成与所述贮藏室相连的送风口;送风机,其将从所述送风口提供的所述空气向所述贮藏室送风;和遮蔽装置,其至少部分封堵所述送风口,所述遮蔽装置具有:送风机外罩,其从所述冷却室的外侧覆盖所述送风机,并在确保所述空气向所述贮藏室流动的开口部的基础上封堵所述送风口;引导风道,其在所述送风机外罩封堵所述送风口的状态下将所述送风机外罩的所述开口部与所述提供风路连通,在所述送风机外罩封堵所述送风口的状态下,所述引导风道的端部与所述送风机外罩的端部重叠。
作为本发明一实施方式的进一步改进,所述送风机外罩的所述端部的侧面部呈宽度随着去往所述送风机而变宽的倾斜形状,所述引导风道的所述端部的侧面部呈宽度随着去往所述送风机而变宽的倾斜形状。

作为本发明一实施方式的进一步改进,通过使所述送风机外罩的所述端部的内侧部分成为高低差形状来形成高低差部,在所述送风机外罩封堵所述送风口的状态下,所述引导风道的所述端部与所述送风机外罩的所述高低差部抵接。
作为本发明一实施方式的进一步改进,所述送风机外罩的所述端部的内侧的宽度尺寸大于所述引导风道的所述端部的外侧的宽度尺寸。
与现有技术相比,本发明具有以下有益技术效果:本发明一实施方式提供了一种冰箱,具备:冷却器,其将经由提供风路提供到贮藏室的空气进行冷却;冷却室,其配设有所述冷却器,并形成与所述贮藏室相连的送风口;送风机,其将从所述送风口提供的所述空气向所述贮藏室送风;和遮蔽装置,其至少部分封堵所述送风口,所述遮蔽装置具有:送风机外罩,其从所述冷却室的外侧覆盖所述送风机,并在确保所述空气向所述贮藏室流动的开口部的封堵所述送风口;和引导风道,其在所述送风机外罩封堵所述送风口的状态下将所述送风机外罩的所述开口部和所述提供风路连通,在所述送风机外罩封堵所述送风口的状态下,所述引导风道的端部与所述送风机外罩的端部重叠。因此,通过使送风机外罩的端部与引导风道的端部重叠,从而在送风机外罩封堵送风口的状态下,能抑制空气从送风机外罩与引导风道之间泄漏到外部。
作为本发明一实施方式的进一步改进,所述送风机外罩的所述端部的侧面部呈宽度随着去往所述送风机而变宽的倾斜形状,所述引导风道的所述端部的侧面部呈宽度随着去往所述送风机而变宽的倾斜形状。因此,通过送风机外罩的端部的侧面部是倾斜面,进而,引导风道的端部的侧面部是倾斜面,从而在送风机外罩与引导风道的连接部,送风机外罩的移动动作不会被引导风道阻碍,能提高送风机外罩封堵送风口时的气密性。
作为本发明一实施方式的进一步改进,所述送风机外罩的所述侧面部的倾斜角和所述引导风道的所述侧面部的倾斜角实质相等。因此,在使送风机外罩移动得接近于送风口时,通过使送风机外罩的侧面部的倾斜角与引导风道的端部的倾斜角实质相等,从而两者的侧面部彼此不会干扰,能平稳地进行送风机外罩的移动。
作为本发明一实施方式的进一步改进,通过使所述送风机外罩的所述端部的内侧部分成为高低差形状来形成高低差部,在所述送风机外罩封堵所述送风口的状态下,所述引导风道的所述端部与所述送风机外罩的所述高低差部抵接。因此,通过引导风道的端部与送风机外罩的高低差部抵接,能进一步提高引导风道与送风机外罩的连接部中的气密性。
作为本发明一实施方式的进一步改进,所述送风机外罩的所述端部的内侧的宽度尺寸大于所述引导风道的所述端部的外侧的宽度尺寸。因此,通过使送风机外罩的端部的内侧与引导风道的端部的外侧分开一定程度,能使送风机外罩的开闭动作平稳。

送风机外罩51的与冷却室13对置的面成形为凹形状。由此,送风机外罩51不会与比罩壳36更向喷出侧突出的风扇37接触,能在风洞36a的外侧与支承基体53抵接,封堵送风口13a。另外,遮蔽装置50被遮蔽装置外罩49从前方覆盖。在遮蔽装置50与遮蔽装置外罩49之间形成容许送风机外罩51的向前后方向的移动的间隙。
参考图4来说明所述冰箱1所采用的遮蔽装置50的构成。图4是在前后方向上分解表示构成遮蔽装置50的各构件的立体图。
遮蔽装置50具有:覆盖所述风扇37的送风机外罩51;将送风机外罩51安装在冰箱1主体的支承基体53;和将送风机外罩51和冰箱主体侧的风路连接的引导风道59。遮蔽装置50的主要功能在于,通过使所述风扇37适当成为非关闭状态或者关闭状态,来将风扇37旋转而送风的冷风提供到期望的贮藏室。另外,通过使遮蔽装置50成为关闭状态,抑制了冷却器32的除霜行程中产生的暖风流入冷冻室4A等。在此,所谓暖风,是被除霜加热器33加热的空气。
送风机外罩51将合成树脂材概略注塑成形成盖形状而得到,具有主视观察下呈现大致四角形状的主面部69和从主面部69的周边缘部向后方侧延伸的侧面部70。将主面部69的中央附近圆形地贯通来形成螺丝孔63,使螺丝孔63的内侧侧面螺旋状凹陷来形成螺槽。使送风机外罩51上侧的侧面部70开口来形成开口部64。开口部64在送风机外罩51封堵送风机35的状况下与所述引导风道59的开口部65连结。在送风机外罩51的左下角部附近以及右上角部附近形成用于使后述的导向销54插通的支承孔62。
送风机外罩51的作用如上述那样,在于将配置于冷却室13的送风口13a的风扇37实质封堵。另外,由于在送风机外罩51的上部形成开口部64,因此在送风机外罩51封堵风扇37的状况下,也能将被风扇37送风的冷气经由开口部64提供到冷藏室3侧。
如后述那样,为了使送风机外罩51的开闭动作顺畅,在形成开口部64的送风机外罩51的上端部,侧面部70呈现出宽度随着去往配置送风机35的后方而变宽的倾斜形状。另外,为了进一步提高关闭时的气密性,在形成开口部64的送风机外罩51的上端部,在送风机外罩51的主面部69以及侧面部70形成高低差部75。相关的构成后述。
驱动轴61呈现大致圆筒形状,设有使1其侧面的一部分螺旋状连续凸起的未图示的螺纹。在此,形成于驱动轴61的侧面的螺纹、和形成于送风机外罩51的螺丝孔63的侧面的螺槽在使用状况下下螺合。在驱动轴61的内部内置未图示的步进电动机,以该电动机的驱动力而驱动轴61旋转给定角度。若驱动轴61从例如前方观察顺时针旋转,则送风机外罩51从支承基体53离开,在送风机外罩51与支承基体53之间形成间隙而成为非关闭状态。因而被未图示的风扇37送风的冷气经由该间隙提供到冷冻室4A。
另一方面,若驱动轴61例如从前方观察逆时针旋转,则送风机外罩51向支承基体53侧移动,送风机外罩51的侧面部70紧贴到支承基体53的框部71,不形成所述间隙而成为关闭状态。因而能将被未图示的风扇37送风的冷气不是提供到冷冻室4A,而是经由所述开口部64以及引导风道59提供到冷藏室3。
支承基体53主要具有:俯视观察下呈四角形的框形状的框部71;支承配置于中央部分的驱动轴61的轴支承部72;将轴支承部72和框部71的角部连结的支承架60;和立设于框部71的左下角部以及右上角部的导向销54。框部71是机械性支承支承基体53的整体的框状的板构件,在其四角附近设有在支承基体53的厚度方向上贯通的多个孔部73。如图4所示那样,经由贯通孔部73的螺丝等的固定单元而包含框部71的遮蔽装置50被固定在分隔体46。
导向销54是竖立设置于与送风机外罩51的支承孔62对应的部位的圆柱状的构件。各个导向销54通过插入到支承孔62并滑动而被引导沿着送风机外罩51的前后方向的移动。
引导风道59具有在是用送风机外罩51封堵送风口13a(图3)的关闭状态时将送风机外罩51的开口部64和冷藏室提供风路14连通的功能。引导风道59由注塑成形的合成树脂构成,有面向前方的主面部40和面向左右两方向的侧面部41构成。形成于引导风道59的下端的开口部65配置在与关闭状态的送风机外罩51的开口部64一致的部位。因而向下方开口的引导风道59的开口部65和向上方开口的送风机外罩51的开口部64成为大致相同的形状以及大小。在此未图示的引导风道59的后方侧的开口与图3所示的入口部14a接续。另外,引导风道59的侧面部41成为向配置送风机35的后方而宽度变宽的倾斜形状,相关事项后述。
参考图5来进一步详述所述遮蔽装置50的构成。图5(A)是表示非关闭状态的遮蔽装 置50的立体图,图5(B)是表示关闭状态的遮蔽装置50的立体图。在此,所谓非关闭状态,是指送风机外罩51为封堵风扇37的状态,所谓关闭状态,是指送风机外罩51封堵风扇37的状态。
参考图5(A),在上述非关闭状态下,通过驱动轴61的驱动力而送风机外罩51向前方移动。因而,送风机外罩51的侧面部70的后端与支承基体53分离,在送风机外罩51与支承基体53之间形成间隙。在该状态下,形成于送风机外罩51的上部的开口部64不与形成于引导风道59的下部的开口部65连通。若在该状态下使图4所示的风扇37旋转而送风,则送风的冷气经由所述间隙而提供到冷冻室4A。
在使送风机外罩51从非关闭状态移转到关闭状态时,使驱动轴61例如从前方观察逆时针旋转。由此,送风机外罩51向后方移动,送风机外罩51的侧面部70的后方端部与支承基体53的前面抵接。在支承基体53的导向销54插通于送风机外罩51的支承孔62,送风机外罩51进行开闭时,导向销54在支承孔62的内部滑动。另外,导向销54以及支承孔62配置于送风机外罩51的对置的角部附近。因而送风机外罩51的开闭动作通过导向销54在支承孔62的内部滑动而稳定进行。
在此,使形成于送风机外罩51的上端的开口部64的周围向上方突出来形成重叠部66。另外,使形成于引导风道59的下端的开口部65的周围向下方突出来形成重叠部67。因此,若使送风机外罩51成为关闭状态,则送风机外罩51的重叠部66和引导风道59的重叠部67重叠。在此,送风机外罩51的重叠部66从外侧覆盖引导风道59的重叠部67。通过相关的构造,在使送风机外罩51为关闭状态的情况下,由于送风机外罩51与引导风道59的接合部分气密性变高,因此抑制了冷气从该接合部分泄漏。
参考图5(B),若通过使驱动轴61旋转来使送风机外罩51向支承基体53侧移动,则送风机外罩51的侧面部70的后端与支承基体53的表面抵接。因此,送风机外罩51与支承基体53的间隙实质消失,不再从两者之间泄漏冷气或暖风。另外,如上述那样,由于送风机外罩51的上端部分与引导风道59的下端部分重叠,因此还抑制了从送风机外罩51与引导风道59之间向外部泄漏冷气。因此,参考图3,由于送风口13a被送风机外罩51封堵,因此被风扇37送风的冷气不提供到冷冻室4A。被风扇37送风的冷气经由送风机外罩51以及引导风道59而送风到冷藏室3。
参考图6到图8来详述所述遮蔽装置50的构成。图6是表示非关闭状态的遮蔽装置50的图,图7是详细表示构成遮蔽装置50的送风机外罩51以及引导风道59的构成的图,图8是表示关闭状态的遮蔽装置50的图。
参考图6来说明非关闭状态的遮蔽装置50。图6(A)是表示遮蔽装置50立体图,图6(B)是表示图6(A)的α-α截面的遮蔽装置50的截面图,图6(B)是表示图6(A)的β-β截面的遮蔽装置50的截面图。
如图6(A)所示那样,在非关闭状态下,通过驱动轴61的驱动力而送风机外罩51成 为被向前方推出的状态,换言之,送风机外罩51从图3所示的风扇37离开而配置。另外,通过如上述那样使送风机外罩51的上端部内侧向外侧矩形地凹陷来形成高低差部75。高低差部75与图6(A)所示的送风机外罩51的主面部69的上端部以及侧面部70的上端部连续形成。另外,上下方向上的高低差部75的位置配置得与引导风道59的下端部同等的水平。
参考图6(B)来进行详述,引导风道59的下端配置在送风机外罩51的高低差部75的下端的上方且高低差部75的上端的下方。如此,如后述那样,在使送风机外罩51向后方移动来做出关闭状态时,送风机外罩51的高低差部75与引导风道59的下端部抵接,能提高送风机外罩51与引导风道59之间的气密性。
参考图6(C),送风机外罩51具有:形成于左方侧的侧面部70A;和形成于右方侧的侧面部70B。左方侧的侧面部70A朝向后方并向左方侧倾斜,右方侧的侧面部70B朝向后方并向右方侧倾斜。侧面部70A向左方侧倾斜的倾斜角和侧面部70B向右方侧倾斜的倾斜角大致相同。
同样地,引导风道59具有:形成于左方侧的侧面部41A;和形成于右方侧的侧面部41B。形成于左方侧的侧面部41A朝向后方并向左方侧倾斜,形成于右方侧的侧面部41B朝向后方并向右方侧倾斜。侧面部41A向左方侧倾斜的倾斜角和侧面部41B向右方侧倾斜的倾斜角大致相同。
如上述那样,通过使送风机外罩51的侧面部70A、70B以及引导风道59的侧面部41A、40B成为向外侧扩展的倾斜面,在开闭送风机外罩51时,送风机外罩51的移动不会被引导风道59阻碍。因而能圆滑地进行送风机外罩51的开闭动作。另外,通过送风机外罩51的侧面部70A等以及引导风道59的侧面部41等是倾斜面,能经由两者的间隙良好地送风冷气。
参考图7来详述构成遮蔽装置50的送风机外罩51以及引导风道59的构成。图7(A)是图6(A)的β-β截面的截面图,图7(B)是将β-β截面的一部分放大的放大截面图。
参考图7(A),在将送风机外罩51与引导风道59连接的连接部,送风机外罩51的内侧的宽度尺寸大于引导风道59的外侧的宽度尺寸。具体而言,送风机外罩51的内侧的前方端部的宽度L10长于引导风道59的外侧的前方端部的宽度L13。进而,送风机外罩51的内侧的后方端部的宽度L11长于引导风道59的外侧的后方端部的宽度L14。如此,在用送风机外罩51封堵引导风道59时,送风机外罩51的内面和引导风道59的外面不是紧贴,而是在两者之间形成微细的间隙。因而送风机外罩51和引导风道59不会相互啮合,能平稳地进行送风机外罩51的进退动作。
参考图7(B),送风机外罩51的侧面部70A从前后方向倾斜的倾斜角θ1例如为5度以上10度以下,代表地例如设为5度。同样地,引导风道59的侧面部41A从前后方向倾斜的倾斜角θ2例如为5度以上10度以下,代表地例如设为5度。另外,送风机外罩51的侧面部70A的倾斜角θ1和引导风道59的侧面部41A的倾斜角θ2相同或大致相同。
相关的事项在遮蔽装置50的右方侧也同样,参考图7(A),送风机外罩51的侧面部70B从前后方向倾斜的倾斜角和引导风道59的侧面部41B从前后方向倾斜的倾斜角相同或大致相同。
通过使所述倾斜角θ1和倾斜角θ2同等,送风机外罩51的侧面部70A和引导风道59的侧面部41A实质成为平行。因而,抑制了伴随送风机外罩51的进退动作而送风机外罩51的侧面部70A和引导风道59的侧面部41A干扰,能平稳地进行送风机外罩51的动作。通过使倾斜角θ1以及倾斜角θ2为5度以上,能使抑制送风机外罩51的侧面部70A和引导风道59的侧面部41A干扰的效果显著。通过使倾斜角θ1以及倾斜角θ2为10度以下,能抑制送风机外罩51以及引导风道59向左右方向的过度的扩展。
在图8示出成为关闭状态的遮蔽装置50。图8(A)是关闭状态的遮蔽装置50的α-α截面(参考图6(A))的截面图,图8(B)是关闭状态的遮蔽装置50的β-β截面(参考图6(A))的截面图,图8(B)是将β-β截面中的截面部分放大的放大截面图。
参考图8(A),通过使驱动轴61向给定方向旋转来使送风机外罩51向后方移动,使送风机外罩51的后方侧端部与支承基体53的框部71的前面侧的主面抵接。由此,在此未图示的风扇37以及送风口13a被送风机外罩51关闭,抑制了冷气或暖风从送风机外罩51与支承基体53的间隙进入。
另外,形成于送风机外罩51的上端的高低差部75的后方侧面与引导风道59的下端的前方侧面抵接。如图6(A)所示那样,高低差部75在送风机外罩51的上端与主面部69以及侧面部70的两方连续而形成。因而在引导风道59的下端,引导风道59的主面部40以及侧面部70的外侧面基于无间隙地与送风机外罩51的高低差部75的内侧面抵接。由此抑制了冷气从送风机外罩51与引导风道59的间隙漏出到外部。
如图8(B)所示那样,在送风机外罩51与引导风道59的连接部,送风机外罩51的主面部69的后方主面与引导风道59的主面部77的前方主面抵接或者接近。另外,形成于送风机外罩51的左右两侧侧面部70A、70B与形成于引导风道59的左右两侧的侧面部41A、41B抵接或者接近。具体而言,如图8(C)所示那样,形成于送风机外罩51的左方侧的侧面部70A的内侧面与形成于引导风道59的左方侧的侧面部41A的外侧面抵接或者接近。相关的事项关于形成于送风机外罩51的右方侧的侧面部70B以及形成于引导风道59的右方侧的侧面部41B也是同样。因此能以高的等级确保送风机外罩51与引导风道59的连接部中的气密性。
接下来,再度参考图2到图6来说明具备以上说明的构成的冰箱1的动作。
首先说仅将冷藏室3冷却的运转。如图2所示那样,基于控制装置的指示使压缩机31运转,打开冷藏室风挡25,使送风机35运转。在此情况下,如图5(B)所示那样,由于遮蔽装置50成为关闭状态,因此抑制了冷气从送风机外罩51与引导风道59之间漏出,能高效地将冷藏室3冷却。
参考图3,被冷却器32冷却的空气依次通过冷却室13的送风口13a、送风机35、送风机外罩51的内部空间、引导风道59、冷藏室风挡25、冷藏室提供风路14以及吹出口17,提供给冷藏室3。由此,能将贮藏在冷藏室3的内部的食品等冷却保存在合适的温度下。
并且,提供到冷藏室3的内部的循环冷气经由在此未图示的返回口以及回归风路返回冷却室13的内部。在那里再度被冷却器32冷却。
接下来说明仅将冷冻室4A冷却的运转。如图3所示那样,基于控制装置的指示使压缩机31运转,将冷藏室风挡25关闭,使送风机35运转,打开送风机外罩51,由此能进行冷冻室4A的冷却。详细地,送风机外罩51成为图5(A)那样从支承基体53离开的非关闭状态。由此,被冷却器32冷却的空气通过配设于冷却室13的送风口13a的送风机35而被送出,经由送风机外罩51与支承基体53的间隙,依次通过冷冻室提供风路15以及吹出口18,仅提供给冷冻室4A。
其结果,能将贮藏于冷冻室4A的内部的食品等冷却保存在合适的温度下。然后冷冻室4A内部的空气通过形成于下段冷冻室6的深处的返回口23经由冷却室13的返回口13b流向冷却室13的内部。
接下来,参考图2来说明向保鲜室7的冷气的提供。通过打开未图示的保鲜室风挡,由送风机35送出的空气的一部分流向未图示的保鲜室提供风路冰箱保鲜室7喷出。由此能将保鲜室7内冷却。然后,在保鲜室7循环的冷气从返回口24依次经过保鲜室回归风路21以及返回口13b,返回冷却室13。
接下来,参考图3来说明将冷藏室3以及冷冻室4A两方冷却的动作。使在此情况下的送风机外罩51与支承基体53分开的长度短于仅将冷冻室4A冷却的情况下上述两者分开的长度。例如,与仅将冷冻室4A冷却的情况比较,使送风机外罩51和支承基体53分开的长度成为一半程度。另外,冷藏室风挡25成为开状态。若在该状态下将被冷却器32冷却的冷气用风扇37送风,送风的冷气的一部分从送风机外罩51与支承基体53的间隙提供到冷冻室4A,冷气的其他一部分经由引导风道59、冷藏室风挡25、冷藏室提供风路14提供到冷藏室3。
接下来,参考图2、图3以及图5来说明除霜运转时的动作。若持续冷却运转,则霜会附着在冷却器32的空气侧传热面,妨碍传热,封堵空气流路。为此开始用于去除附着于冷却器32的霜的除霜冷却运转或者除霜运转。
首先说明利用附着于冷却器32的霜的潜热来进行冷藏室3的冷却的除霜冷却运转。在进行除霜冷却运转的情况下,基于控制装置的指示来停止压缩机31的运转,如图5(B)所示那样,成为关闭遮蔽装置50的关闭状态。然后基于控制装置的指示打开冷藏室风挡25,使送风机35运转。由此,在冷藏室3与冷却室13之间使空气循环,能通过该循环空气融化附着于冷却器32的霜。即,不进行除霜加热器33的加热就能进行除霜。同时,不使压缩机31运转就能利用霜的融解热来进行冷藏室3的冷却。
在通常的除霜运转中,基于控制装置的指示来停止压缩机31,在除霜加热器33通电,除霜加热器33发热,使冷却室13变暖,来将附着于冷却器32的霜融化。这时,遮蔽装置50成为关闭状态,用送风机外罩51封堵送风口13a,将冷藏室风挡25关闭。由此能防止通过除霜加热器33变暖的冷却室13内的暖风向冷藏室提供风路14以及冷冻室提供风路15流出。在本形态中,抑制了暖风从送风机外罩51与引导风道59之间进入。因此热能的损失少,能高效地进行除霜行程,减低除霜所涉及的时间以及能量。
若冷却器32的除霜完成,则基于控制装置的指示停止除霜加热器33的通电,启动压缩机31,使送风机外罩51向前方移动,由此使遮蔽装置50成为非关闭状态,开始冷冻循环所带来的冷却。
以上是与本形态所涉及的冰箱1的动作相关的说明。
在本形态中,由于通过上述构成使遮蔽装置50的气密性提升,因此在将各贮藏库冷却的冷却运转时,冷气不会从遮蔽装置50漏出,因此提升了冷却效率而能使各贮藏库处于期望的库内温度带。进而,在除霜时,暖风不会从遮蔽装置50进入,抑制了除霜行程中的热能的损失从而缩短了除霜时间,能防止由进入的暖风加热贮藏室。
本发明并不限定于上述实施方式,此外能在不脱离本发明的要旨的范围内实施变更。
