Description

Detailed Description of the Invention (B) Background and Problems with the Background Art Conventionally, in this type of refrigerator, one of the conveniences when ejecting items, such as at night, is that the door body is opened. A lighting device is installed inside the refrigerator. These lighting devices inevitably generate heat when turned on, which affects the temperature inside the refrigerator and reduces cooling efficiency, and they also have drawbacks such as the need to take insulation measures to prevent electrical leakage due to wall removal. was.

(c) Purpose of the invention There are many things.

2) Summary of the invention ＼An eave extending forward from the top of the front space of the warehouse is provided, and a lighting device is installed in the eave to illuminate the inside of the warehouse when the door is opened.The inside of the warehouse is illuminated from outside. .

(E) Embodiment of the Invention Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of the refrigerator (5) of the present invention, and the interior of the main body (1) responsible for refrigeration is separated by a partition wall (not shown) above and below into a freezing compartment and a refrigerating compartment, which will be described later. It is divided into. (
2) and (3) are a freezer compartment door and a refrigerator compartment door which are pivotably mounted on the minus side of the refrigerator body (1) so as to close the front space 1'' of each compartment. Further, (4) is a control box which will be described in detail later and is arranged on the upper part of the refrigerator body (1) so as to also serve as a hinge cover. As shown in the cross-sectional view of Figure 2, the refrigerator body (1) has an inner box (generally made of synthetic resin) molded in a U-shaped groove (6) formed at the front opening edge of an outer box (5) made of steel plate. The front outward facing flanges (8) are engaged and assembled, and both boxes (5) are formed by foam filling with a heat insulating material (9).
10) is the freezer compartment, 01) is a gasket disposed around the inner edge of the freezer compartment door (2), and the foundation stone stored inside is in close contact with the outer box (5) when the freezer compartment door (2) is closed. and the freezer (
Close the fill airtight.

As shown in the exploded perspective view of FIG. 3, the control box (4) consists of a box-shaped main body (12) and a cover plate (13) with an oval-shaped cross section.
α(A) is a hinge plate for pivotally supporting the freezer compartment door (2), and one end thereof is fixed to the front side of the upper surface of the refrigerator body (1).

A fitting hole 051 having the same shape as the hinge plate θ4) is bored in the main body f12) of the control box (4), and the main body (12) is positioned by fitting the hinge plate 04) into this fitting hole 09. Ru. (
16) is a control board consisting of a switch (1 switch, 0 resistance frame, etc. fixed), which is configured to control cooling operation, relief operation, etc., and is housed and fixed in the control box (4).Control box (4
) is the fitting hole of the main body Q21 (the hole that was drilled in the outer box (5) after the hinge plate (14) was fitted, the control board (16) was housed, and the cover plate (13) was closed). (The control box (4), which is assembled by being fixed together with screws (A) and the like at 19, extends forward in an eave-like manner so as to be flush with the freezer compartment door (2) when the door is closed, which is located at the front of the control box (4). In addition, the part of the control box (4) that is farthest from the main body (one hinge plate (14), that is, the front bottom surface on the center side of the refrigeration source) is recessed inward, and a lamp chamber ( 21).Therefore, the lamp chamber 121
), as shown in Figure 2, with the freezer compartment door (2) closed.
), and its opening is closed by the top of the door (2). Lamp room c! 1) There is a lamp Q inside
21 is housed in the lamp (2 is controlled by a door switch (not shown), etc., and is configured so that it lights up when the freezer compartment door (2) is opened and turns off when it is closed. The ceiling and front side of the lamp room CI'l) A reflecting plate (c) made of a cast metal plate or the like is attached to the inner surface, and the lamp (mostly the light emitted from the lamp) is irradiated to the freezer compartment 00 side.

That is, when the freezer compartment door (2) is opened, the lamp Q2) is lit and the interior of the freezer compartment M(2) is brightly illuminated.
) is closed, the lamp chamber 01) is closed by the door, and the lamps (2) are protected from the outside.Furthermore, the control box (4) is in an open/closed state compared to the case where the control unit is provided on the freezer compartment door (2). Since it does not move regardless of the

(f) Example of Application of the Invention In the embodiment, the invention was applied to a two-door refrigerator, but it may also be used in a single-door storage for freezing or refrigeration.Although the lamp is placed in a control box that also serves as a cover for the hinge, an eaves can be placed on the top of the refrigerator. (G) Effects According to the present invention, since the lighting device is located outside the refrigerator, the heat generated when the lighting is turned on does not affect the inside of the refrigerator, and the Since there is no risk of flooding, there is no need to pay for special insulation treatment. In addition, the light when turned on does not backlight the user compared to when a lighting device is installed inside the refrigerator, and it is easier to use because the front side is brighter and the user's hand is brighter. Since it is illuminated from the inside, it is easy to identify the stored items.
