Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the outer appearance of an article from being lowered by forming a fragile layer at a location where a portion of a foam heat insulating material where it contracts non-uniformly makes contact with an outer box. CONSTITUTION:There is inserted into an inner jig 12 a box 20 where an inner box 3 integrally molded with a synthetic resin material is contained in an outer box 4, and the box 20 is fixed by bringing outer jigs 14-17 into contact with the outer box 4 permitting those outer jigs to surround the outer box. Stock solution of the foam heat insulating material is injected from an injection inlet 19 provided on the back of the box 20 for foaming. Cold water is circulated through a cooling pipe in proper to cool the extended portion of a partition part 6 between freezing chambers 1 and 2 provided on the outer jig 16 and a cooling part 18 corresponding to the surroundings of the former. Thereupon, a fragile layer 10, which is fragile and is deteriorated in adhesiveness, is formed on the foam heat insulating material facing to a contact part 7 of the cooling part 18 of the outer box 4. Hereby, an outer box 4 surface does not have any recess because even though partial contraction force due to the partition part 6 is applied to the foam heat insulating material 5, the fragile layer 10 is partly broken down and is separated from the outer box 4 inner surface.

After storing the inner box 3t and the metal outer box 4, the undiluted solution of the foamed heat insulating material 105 such as hard polyurethane is poured into the space between the circular box 3 and the outer box 4, the freezing compartment 1, and the storage compartment 2. The insulated box 1 is injected into the partition space 6 between the undiluted solution and the foamed solution fills the space.
It was forming 08. At this time, the foamed heat insulating material 105 and the outer box 4 were strongly bonded to each other due to the adhesive properties of the foamed heat insulating material 105.

Problems to be Solved> However, in the conventional heat insulating box, the foamed heat insulating material 1 of the partition 6 between the freezer compartment 1 and the refrigerator compartment 2 is structurally limited.
The wall thickness of 05 was extremely thick. Therefore, the dimensional shrinkage of the foamed heat insulating material 5 on both sides of the partition section 6 due to the temperature drop from the foaming hardening temperature to room temperature, and the dimensional shrinkage of the heat insulating material 105 due to the temperature drop during cooling operation, compared to other parts. It was getting bigger. However, the foam insulation material 1
Since the outer box 4 was strongly adhered to the outer box 4, dents were formed on both sides of the outer box 4 following the shrinkage of the foamed heat insulating material.

Therefore, the cooling portions 18 and 18 of the outer box 4 and the abutting portions 7 and
7 is rapidly cooled, and as a result, the normal foaming and length of the urethane foam in the portion facing the corresponding contact portions 7, 7 is inhibited, and brittle layers 10, 10, which are brittle and have poor adhesiveness, are formed. Certain lengths of the urethane foam other than the cooling parts 18 and 18 proceed normally due to residual heat.

According to the heat insulating box 8, even if a partial contraction force acts on the urethane foam 5, the fragile WIO-1o is partially broken and easily peeled off from the inner surface of the outer box 4. For this reason,
Since only the urethane foam 5 contracts, the contraction force is not applied to the outer box 4. Therefore, it is possible to prevent dents from forming on the surface of the outer box 4.
