Abstract

PURPOSE:To evaporate water, produced by defrosting, with a high efficiency and eliminate the problem of overflowing by a method wherein a L-shape heat transfer tube and a high-temperature high pressure pipe are contacted closely with a recessed groove formed on an evaporating pan to effect heat conduction between the evaporating pan. CONSTITUTION:A L-shape heat transfer tube 36, accommodating a refrigerant circulating heater 35, and a high-temperature high-pressure pipe 29 are arranged 8o as to be contacted closely with the recessed groove of an evaporating pan 30 and, therefore, good heat conduction is effected between water produced by defrosting. Accordingly, water, produced by defrosting frost adhered to a cooling pipe 31 provided from a drain hose 28 to the upper part of an inner casing 23 and a heat transfer plate 32, can be evaporated easily whereby the water in the evaporating pan 30, which is produced by defrosting, can be evapo rated nicely and the overflow of the same can be eliminated.

Frost that adheres to the cooling pipe 11 and the heat conductive plate 12 during cooling can be removed by turning off the bush switch 14 of the thermostat 13, which simultaneously turns off the power to the heater 15 for refrigerant circulation, stopping cooling and removing the frost. Clearing is started, the frost is naturally melted, and the frost tray at the upper part of the inner box 3 falls into the tray 5 as water. The water is guided from the drain hole 6 of the frost tray 5, through the drain guide 7, to the evaporation tray 10 by the drain hose 8, and the defrost water that accumulates in the evaporation tray 10 is naturally heated by the high temperature and high pressure pipe 9.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) In the conventional refrigerator defrost water evaporation device as described above, the evaporation dish 10 has poor heat conduction efficiency with the high temperature and high pressure pipe 9, so the water evaporation capacity is small, and therefore , defrosting water will remain in the evaporating dish 10, and if you open and close the refrigerator door frequently in a high-temperature, high-humidity room, the cooling pipe 11 and heat conduction plate 1 will be damaged.
There was a problem in that a large amount of frost adhered to the evaporating tray 2, and the defrosting water flowed directly from the drainage hole 6 of the tray 5, through the drain hose 8, and overflowed into the evaporating tray 10.
