Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce shock upon opening and/or closing a door by a method wherein one end of a roller supporting table is attached pivotably while the other end of the same is attached so that the roller supporting table is pushed downward through a spring. CONSTITUTION:The supporting table 17a of door supporting rollers is attached so as to be rotatable downward about mounting holes 21 and is energized downward by a spring 18. Accordingly, when a roller 15-1 is going to be separated from the slanted part 25 of a roller riding surface 19, a second roller 15-2 is on the slanted part 25 and the spring 18 is energized downward to support one part of the weight of a door 2 whereby the roller 15-2 is moved smoothly and absorbs shock. When the roller 15-2 is going to be separated from the slanted part 25, a third roller 15-3 is moved onto the slanted part 25 whereby shock of the door 2 due to the descending of the right side of the same is absorbed. According to this method, the shock upon opening and/or closing the door 2 can be reduced.

The roller 15-2 supports part of the weight and moves smoothly to absorb the impact. Similarly, roller 15
-2 tries to move away from the inclined part 25,
The third roller 15-3 moves to the inclined portion 25 and absorbs the impact caused by the right-hand descent (inclination) K of R2. When the roller 15-3 leaves the inclined part 25, the impact is small because the roller assembly 14b provided on the left side of the door 2 still remains on the roller riding surface 19 or the inclined part 25. When the door 2 is further opened, the roller 15-4 attached to the roller assembly 141) moves to the inclined portion 25.
As the door 2 descends, the weight of the door 2 is applied to the roller 15-5, so the nupling 18 is compressed and the roller support 1
7t) is about to tilt toward the upper left with respect to the door 2, but since a cut portion 26 extending downward to the left is provided at the upper left side of the mounting hole 21 of the roller support 17b, this cut portion 26 The roller support stand 17b can be tilted upward to the left until it touches the bottom surface of the door 2. Therefore, when the roller 15-4 leaves the inclined part 25, the roller 15-5 or the inclined part 25
In addition, the roller 15-6 is positioned on the roller landing surface 19 to reduce the impact when the roller 15-4 separates from the refrigerator main body 1. When the roller 15-5 leaves the inclined part 25, the roller 15-6 is positioned on the inclined part 25 to reduce the impact caused by the separation of the roller 15-5. However, when the roller 15-6 leaves the inclined portion 25, there is no roller to reduce the impact, but from the roller 15-6 to the hinge pin 3.
The distance to b is short and the slope of door 2 is almost finished, so the impact is small.

Next, in contrast to the above-mentioned operation, the operation when closing the door 2 which was opened at the axis of rotation of the hinge pin ab1 will be explained briefly as it is almost the opposite of the operation when opening. When the door 2 is closed, the roller 15-6 first comes into contact with the front of the inclined portion 25. When the door 2 is further closed from this state, the roller 15-6 moves up the slope 25,
It rides on the roller riding surface 19. At this time, the roller support stand 17k) is tilted upward to the left, the next roller 15-5 is located on the slope 25, and the rollers 15-6 and 15-5 are prevented from riding on the slope 25 or the roller by the nupling 18. Side 1

<Effects of the Invention> As is clear from the above explanation, the door support roller of the present invention for a left and right double-hung door is attached to the bottom surface of the door substantially parallel to the door, and the load on the door is reduced when the door is opened and closed. One end of the roller support base supporting the section is rotatably attached so that the other end can move up and down, and the other end is configured to press the roller support base downward by inserting a spring. The elasticity of the spring and the inclination of the roller assembly can reduce the impact when the roller approaches and separates from the surface on which the roller rides when the door is opened and closed.
