Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve a problem of an obstacle to an increase of a supply air amount to another chamber needing more cold air and an obstacle to a decrease of a power consumption due to an indispensably long length of an operating time of a compressor because of a structure for sending the cold air more than necessity (in the degree of not melting an ice) in an independent icemaking chamber 3 when a supply of the cold air is not so necessary as at the time of fully icing or stopping icemaking in a conventional refrigerator. SOLUTION: An air volume regulator (damper) for operating or stopping a circulation of the cold air is installed in a cold air supply only duct to the independent icemaking chamber of the refrigerator to regulate a supply air amount to the icemaking chamber. The supply amount to the icemaking chamber is regulated to a suitable amount. Thus, when the air supply to the icemaking chamber is not required, the supply amount to another chamber is increased, and a cooling speed of the another chamber is accelerated. Thus, the operating time of the compressor is shortened to reduce the power consumption.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the main operation of the independent ice making chamber air volume adjusting device (I damper) 9b according to the present invention. The opening and closing of the I damper is controlled by temperature data Ts of an ice tray temperature sensor 13 attached to the ice tray 10 and detecting the temperature of the ice tray 10.

It is determined whether the temperature data Ts of 0 is equal to or less than A (step 401), and if it is larger than A (NO in the flowchart).
Open the independent ice making chamber air volume adjusting device 9b and supply cool air to the independent ice making chamber 3 (step 402). If the temperature data Ts of the ice tray 10 is less than or equal to A (go to YES in the flowchart). Next, it is determined whether or not Ts is equal to or greater than B (step 403). If Ts is equal to or greater than B (proceeding in the YES direction of the flowchart), the independent air volume adjusting device 9b is opened, and cool air is supplied to the independent icemaker 3.

I do. If NO in step 403 (Ts is smaller than B), it is considered that the water supplied into the ice tray has completely become ice, and it is not necessary to send cold air to the ice tray 10 of the independent ice making chamber 3. , I damper 9b is closed. Although not shown in FIG. 6, by adjusting the opening degree of the I damper 9b, control accuracy is improved. The control for opening the I damper 9b and sending cool air to the independent ice making chamber 3 is performed in steps 402 and 404. However, when comparing the ice tray temperature Ts in step 402 and step 404, step 40 is performed.

ないときはその逆である。First, it is determined whether the defrost function (DEF) is operating (ON) or not operating (OFF) (step 2801). If it is operating, the I damper 9b is closed (step 2802). ). If it is not operating, the process proceeds to step 2803, in which the control of any of the above-described first to 25th embodiments is performed. During operation of the defrosting function, the air volume adjusting device for the independent ice making room 9b
By closing, the warm air generated by the defrost is separated from the independent ice making room 3.
To reduce the time from the restart of operation to the completion of cooling / stop of operation, reduce the operation rate, and reduce power consumption. The defrosting of the cooler 6 is performed by, for example, providing a heat source near the cooler 6 to melt the frost by heating. Whether the defrost function is operating is provided, for example, by providing a sensor in the cooler,
If the sensor senses that the temperature is higher than the temperature of the cooler in the normal cooling state, it is determined that the temperature is high due to defrosting, and it is determined that defrosting is being performed. The reverse is true when the defrost function is not operating.
