BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 23.

[0029]
In the figure, reference numeral 10 denotes a refrigerator body, and a rigid urethane foam 13 is filled in a space formed by an inner box 11 made of a synthetic resin such as ABS and an outer box 12 made of a metal such as an iron plate.

Reference numeral 20 denotes a machine room arranged below the rear part of the refrigerator main body 10 and inside which a compressor 21 is arranged. 22 is a refrigeration cooler, 23 is a refrigeration blower, 24 is a refrigeration cooler, 25 is a refrigeration blower, and 26 is a condenser provided on the bottom of the refrigerator main body 10.
[0030]
A hinged refrigerator compartment door 2 that pivots around one end is provided at the front opening of the refrigerator body 10.
7, a drawer-type vegetable room door 28, a switching room door 29, an ice making room door 30, and a freezing room door 31 are provided. Reference numerals 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, and 41 denote vacuum heat insulators, which together with the rigid urethane foam 13 constitute the refrigerator body 10.
[0031]
Here, the vacuum heat insulating materials 32, 33, 34, and 36 are attached in contact with the top surface, the back surface, the side surface, and the inside of the machine room constituting surface of the outer box 11, respectively. The vacuum heat insulating material 35 is attached in contact with the bottom surface of the inner box 12. Further, the vacuum heat insulating material 37 is provided in the heat insulating partition wall 14.
[0032]
Further, inside the hinge-type refrigerator compartment door 27 disposed at the front opening of the refrigerator body 10, a vacuum heat insulating material 38 is provided so as to be in contact with the inner box, and the drawer-type vegetable compartment door 28 and the switching compartment door 29 are provided. Inside the freezer compartment door 31, vacuum heat insulators 39, 40, and 41 are respectively disposed so as to be located between the outer iron plate and the inner box of each door.
[0033]
The thickness of the heat insulating wall of the heat insulating box formed of the rigid urethane foam 13 and the vacuum heat insulating materials 33, 34, 35, and 36 surrounding the freezing room 19 and the switching room 17 in the freezing area is the wall of the opening except the door. A heat insulating wall of a heat insulating box formed of hard urethane foam 13 and vacuum heat insulating materials 32, 33, 34 surrounding a refrigerator room 15 and a vegetable room 16 in a refrigerator region in a distribution of 25 to 50 mm including a thin portion. The thickness has a distribution of 25 to 40 mm excluding the door and including the thin wall portion of the opening.
[0034]
As described above, due to the configuration in which the vacuum heat insulating material is disposed on both sides, the top surface, the back surface, the bottom surface, and the front surface of the refrigerator body 10, the coverage of the vacuum heat insulating material with respect to the surface area of the outer box is 50%. Over 80%.
[0035]
The reason why the covering rate of the vacuum heat insulating material is set to be more than 50% and equal to or less than 80% is that when a large amount of the vacuum heat insulating material is provided and the covering rate is to be increased to the maximum, components not shown in the refrigerator main body 10 or special In a portion having a structure (such as an uneven shape, a pipe, and a drain pipe installation portion), a special form of vacuum heat insulating material is required, or the workability of attaching the vacuum heat insulating material becomes extremely poor.
[0036]
For this reason, even if it is attempted to dispose the vacuum heat insulating material over approximately 80% of the surface area of the outer box 11, the above-mentioned use efficiency will be poor and the use value will be saturated. The effect of improving the heat insulation performance is significantly reduced.
[0037]
Therefore, as in the present embodiment, the effect of using a large amount of vacuum heat insulating material is not saturated by limiting the covering ratio of the vacuum heat insulating material to the surface area of the outer box 11 to 80%, and the utility value is reduced. In a high state, the heat absorption load can be effectively suppressed, and the energy saving effect can be enhanced.
[0038]
The 80% coverage is achieved by providing a large-sized vacuum heat insulating material that can cover almost all of the sides, top, back, bottom, and front surfaces of the heat insulation box. Can also be realized well.
[0039]
For this reason, the use of this heat-insulating box does not cause the investment effect to be significantly reduced due to the use of a non-standard form of vacuum heat-insulating material and the work of disposing the heat-insulating box at a portion where the work efficiency is low. The value as the life cycle cost can be increased without breaking the balance between the increase in the initial cost and the reduction in the running cost due to energy saving.
[0040]
Further, if the surface area of the outer box 12 exceeds about 50% by arranging from the place where the passing heat gradient is large inside and outside the heat insulating box, the heat absorption load of the heat insulating box can be effectively suppressed. Energy saving effect.
[0041]
Further, the center line average roughness (Ra) of the outer surface of the outer box 11 on the surface where the vacuum heat insulating materials 32, 33, and 34 are disposed on the outer box 11 is set to 0.1.μm or more and 0.1μIt is set coarser than m or less.
[0042]
4 and 5, reference numeral 42 denotes a door inner plate, which has a projection 43, a vacuum heat insulating material 38 is attached so as to be in contact with the surface of the forefront part 44, and after the rigid urethane foam 13 is injected, the door is closed. The inner plate 42 is covered and foamed to form the refrigerator compartment door 27.
[0043]
FIG. 6 is a sectional view of the drawer type freezer compartment door 31. Reference numeral 45 denotes a door inner plate having a fixing portion 47 for fixing a rail 46 for supporting a case (not shown) for storing frozen food, and is fixed together with the reinforcing plate 48 in the urethane by the fixing portion 47. Reference numeral 49 denotes a spacer, which is fixed to a part of the reinforcing plate 48 with an adhesive or the like so that the vacuum heat insulating material 41 is disposed in a space between the door inner plate 45 and the door outer plate 50.
[0044]
Further, the spacer 49 is a member softer than the vacuum heat insulating material 41, for example, styrene foam or polyethylene foam.
[0045]
The spacer 49 has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape, and is disposed so that the flow direction during foaming of the rigid urethane foam 13 matches the longitudinal direction of the spacer 49.
[0046]
In the above-described configuration, the refrigerator compartment 15 and the vegetable compartment 16 are almost 0 by the cooling device including the compressor 21, the refrigerator cooler 22, the refrigerator blower 23, the freezing cooler 24, the freezing blower 25, and the condenser 26. The switching room 17, the ice making room 18, and the freezing room 19 are cooled to a temperature of approximately -15 to -25C.
[0047]
Then, the vacuum heat insulating material is disposed from the place where the heat gradient passing through the inside and outside of the box is large, and when the covering rate exceeds about 50% of the outer box surface area, the heat absorption load of the refrigerator can be effectively suppressed. It is possible to enhance the energy saving effect, and to reduce the coverage to 80% or less, which requires the use of non-standard form of vacuum heat insulating material and the work of arranging it in the part with low work efficiency, and the vacuum heat insulation. It is possible to avoid a rapid increase in the cost ratio with respect to the reduction in the amount of heat absorbed by the material, and to effectively suppress the heat absorption load in a state where the use value of the vacuum heat insulating material is high, thereby improving the energy saving effect.
[0048]
In addition, since the vacuum heat insulating materials 32, 33, and 34 are in contact with and attached to the outer case 11, the outer surfaces of the outer case 11 may be removed due to unevenness of the surfaces of the vacuum heat insulators 32, 33, and 34, and variations in flatness such as warpage. Although the surface may be deformed, the center line average roughness (Ra) of the outer surface of the outer box 11 is set to 0.1 μm or more, and the conventional 0.1μm, the reflectance of light on the outer surface of the outer case of the same coating material is reduced, and deformation of the outer surface of the outer case due to the attachment of the vacuum heat insulating material can be visually reduced. Therefore, it is possible to cope with the appearance deformation of the refrigerator 10 to which the vacuum heat insulating material is applied without using a complicated structure or special parts and materials. The upper limit of the center line average roughness (Ra) of the outer surface of the outer box 11 is 1 which does not impair the appearance quality.μm is desirable.
[0049]
Further, a vacuum heat insulating material 38 is attached so as to be in contact with the surface of the frontmost portion 44 of the door inner plate 42, and after the hard urethane foam 13 is injected, the door inner plate 42 is covered and foamed to form the refrigerator compartment door 27. Therefore, the vacuum heat insulating material 38 does not directly contact the outer surface of the refrigerator compartment door 27, and the outer surface of the refrigerator compartment door 27 does not deform due to shrinkage after the foaming of the hard urethane foam 13.
[0050]
Further, since the vacuum heat insulating material 38 is attached so as to be in contact with the surface of the frontmost portion 44 of the door inner plate 42, the vacuum heat insulating material 38 can be arranged as large as possible, and the heat insulating performance can be improved.
Wear. Further, the protrusion 43 formed on the inner side of the door inner plate 42 can be filled with the hard urethane foam from the vacuum heat insulating material 38 and the space of the door inner plate 42, and the strength of the protrusion can be increased.
[0051]
Further, since the vacuum heat insulating material 41 disposed on the drawer type freezer compartment door 31 is partially disposed in the space between the door inner plate 45 and the door outer plate 50 via the spacer 49, the rigid urethane foam 13 foams. The outer surface of the door outer panel 50 does not deform due to the subsequent contraction. Further, the rigid urethane foam 13 can be reliably formed also in the vicinity of the fixing portion 47 of the rail 46 formed on the door inner plate 45 or the reinforcing plate 48, and the strength of the rail fixing portion 47 can be increased.
[0052]
Further, since the spacer 49 is a member softer than the vacuum heat insulating material 41, the reliability of the vacuum heat insulating material 41 can be improved without damaging the outer cover material of the vacuum heat insulating material 41.
[0053]
Further, since the spacer 49 has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape and is arranged so that the flow direction of the rigid urethane foam 13 at the time of foaming and the longitudinal direction of the spacer 49 are aligned, the flow of the rigid urethane foam 13 at the time of foaming by the spacer 49 is determined. Obstruction can be reduced, urethane filling properties can be improved, and the strength of the rail fixing portion can be reliably increased.
[0054]
Although the freezer compartment door 31 has been described as the drawer door of the refrigerator of the present embodiment, the same effect can of course be obtained for the vegetable compartment door 28 and the switching compartment door 29 that constitute the drawer door. .
[0055]
Although a single vacuum heat insulating material 38 is used for the refrigerator compartment door 27 of the refrigerator of the present embodiment, a plurality of vacuum heat insulating materials 38a and 38b are provided for one door as shown in FIGS. The door inner plate 42 may be arranged with a gap near the protrusion 43. In this case, the rigid urethane foam 13 can be reliably filled in the protrusion 43, and the strength of the protrusion 43 of the refrigerator compartment door 27a can be increased.
[0056]
(Embodiment 2)
FIG. 9 is a front view of a refrigerator according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. The description of the same configuration as that of the first embodiment will be omitted, and only different points will be described.
[0057]
In the drawing, the glossiness of the outer surface of the outer box 12 where the vacuum heat insulating materials 32, 33, 34 are disposed on the outer box 12 is reduced from about 90 in the past to 80 or less.
[0058]
Here, the gloss refers to a gloss of 100% at a 60 ° incident angle on the glass surface having a refractive index of 1.567, or a gloss of 5% at an incident angle of 20 ° on a glass surface having a refractive index of 1.567. The degree is set to 100, and is specified in the JIS standard (JIS, Z8741).
[0059]
According to the above configuration, the vacuum heat insulating materials 32, 33, and 34 are in contact with and adhered to the outer case 12, so that irregularities on the surfaces of the vacuum heat insulators 32, 33, and 34, and variations in flatness such as warpage cause variations in the outer case. Although the outer surface of the outer case 12 may be deformed, the gloss of the outer surface of the outer case 12 is reduced from about 90 to 80 or less, so that the reflectance of light on the outer surface of the outer case with the same surface roughness decreases. In addition, deformation of the outer surface of the outer box due to the attachment of the vacuum heat insulating material can be visually reduced.
[0060]
Therefore, it is possible to cope with the appearance deformation of the refrigerator 10 to which the vacuum heat insulating material is applied without using a complicated structure or special parts and materials. In addition, the lower limit of the glossiness of the outer surface of the outer box 12 is desirably about 50 which does not impair the appearance quality.
[0061]
(Embodiment 3)
FIG. 10 is a sectional view of a main part of a side wall of a refrigerator according to a third embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 11 is a perspective view of a main part of the refrigerator of the same embodiment. The description of the same configuration as that of the first embodiment will be omitted, and only different points will be described.
[0062]
In the figure, 51 is an outer box, 52 is an inner box, and between the outer box 51 and the inner box 52 is a soft member 53 as an intervening member for preventing deformation of the outer surface of the outer box from the outer box 51 side, and vacuum insulation. A material 54 and a rigid urethane foam 55 are provided. The soft member 53 as an intervening member is larger than the vacuum heat insulating material 54 and is a member softer than the vacuum heat insulating material 54, for example, a resin foam. Preferably, a resin foam made of an independent foam is desirable.
[0063]
In addition, the thickness t1 of the soft member 53 as the intervening member is equal to or more than the flatness of the vacuum heat insulating material 54 and equal to or less than the thickness of the vacuum heat insulating material, specifically, 3 mm or more and 15 mm or less.
[0064]
With the above-described configuration, the soft member 53 as an intervening member provided between the vacuum heat insulating material 54 and the outer case 51 for preventing the outer surface of the outer case 51 from deforming allows the flatness of the surface of the vacuum heat insulating material 54 to be uneven or warped. And the deformation of the outer surface of the outer box can be prevented.
[0065]
Further, since the soft member 53 as the intervening member is made larger than the vacuum heat insulating material 54, a variation in attachment when the vacuum heat insulating material 54 is attached to the outer box 51 can be absorbed, and the working efficiency can be improved.
[0066]
Further, since the soft member 53 as the intervening member is a member softer than the vacuum heat insulating material 54, the reliability of the vacuum heat insulating material 54 can be improved without damaging the outer cover material of the vacuum heat insulating material 54 during manufacturing. .
[0067]
Further, since the soft member 53 as an intervening member is a member made of a resin foam, the foaming pressure at the time of foaming the hard urethane foam 13 is absorbed by the compression of the resin foam, and the resin foam is formed at the time of contraction of the hard urethane foam after foaming. It can be absorbed by the expansion of the body, and the deformation of the outer surface of the outer box can be reliably prevented.
[0068]

At the time of foaming 75, some hard urethane foam 75 enters from the gap between the vacuum heat insulating material 65 and the heat radiation pipe 63, but does not reach the other end 64b of the aluminum tape 64. Therefore, since the first gap portion 76 and the second gap portion 77 near the other end 64b side of the aluminum tape 64 communicate with each other, the gas in the first gap portion 76 and the second gap portion 77 smoothly flows. Since the air is discharged outside the refrigerator, expansion and contraction of the gap due to a change in the ambient temperature do not occur, and the outer surface of the outer box 62 provided with the heat radiating pipe 63 can be reliably prevented from being deformed.
[0090]
The groove 74 formed in the vacuum heat insulating material 65 facing the heat radiating pipe 63 is formed by the press portion 73 of the press 72 after the vacuum heat insulating material 65 is completed.

The seal portion 82 between the film 80 having the aluminum vapor deposition layer and the film 81 having the metal foil is disposed so as to be bent toward the hard urethane foam 75 side.
[0097]
In the above configuration, the film 80 having the aluminum vapor-deposited layer has a property that the thermal conductivity is low (heat is hardly transmitted), but the gas permeability is poor (easy to transmit) as compared with the film 81 having the metal foil. ing. Further, the film 81 having a metal foil has a property that gas permeability is good (it is difficult to transmit), but thermal conductivity is poor (heat is easily transmitted) as compared with the film 80 having an aluminum vapor deposition layer. . Therefore, the heat transfer path to the outer box 62 along the film 81 having the metal foil is long by bending the sealing portion 82 toward the film 81 having the metal foil that is easily conducting heat, that is, the rigid urethane foam 75 side. In addition, the distance between the seal portion 82 and the outer box 62 can be increased, so that heat transfer to the outer box 62 through the film can be suppressed, and the heat insulation can be improved.
