壁５と仕切前部材１１の前面は前記扉に設けたガスケッ
トが当接する気密面として作用する。The front opening of each chamber 67A, 7B has a door (not shown) that can be opened and closed independently, which is pivotally supported on the refrigerator main body 1, and the front of the partition wall 5 and the partition front member 11 is covered with a gasket provided on the door. Acts as an airtight surface that contacts.

１４は下部貯蔵室７Ｂ内に前方へ取出し自在なるよう収
納した物品貯蔵容器で上面に開口した箱形である。Reference numeral 14 denotes an article storage container stored in the lower storage chamber 7B so as to be freely removable to the front, and has a box shape with an opening at the top.

貯蔵容器１４はそれの外壁面と下部貯蔵室７Ｂの内壁面
である左右側壁及び後壁との間に冷気が流通する空間１
５が形成される大きさであり、この空間１５に対応して
仕切板１３の周縁部には冷気の流通孔１６が複数個形成
されている。The storage container 14 has a space 1 in which cool air flows between its outer wall surface and the left and right side walls and rear wall, which are the inner wall surfaces of the lower storage chamber 7B.
5, and a plurality of cool air circulation holes 16 are formed at the peripheral edge of the partition plate 13 corresponding to the spaces 15.

仕切板１３は一枚の板で形成してもよいが、図の如く枠
状板１３Ａとこの枠状板１３Ａ内の中央開口１３Ｂを塞
ぐ蓋板１３Ｃとの組合せであっても差支えない。The partition plate 13 may be formed of a single plate, but as shown in the figure, it may be a combination of a frame plate 13A and a lid plate 13C that closes the central opening 13B in the frame plate 13A.

仕切板１３の支持はそれの左右端部及び後端部を内箱３

７Ｂの底面へ載置する構造でもよい。The article storage container 14 may be provided so as to be slidable in the front-rear direction on a rail provided on the side wall of the lower storage chamber, or may be placed on the bottom surface of the lower storage chamber 7B.

本考案は前述の如く構成したことにより、前記物品貯蔵
容器内は乾燥がない状態に維持できるため野菜等の貯蔵
部として最適になると共に物品貯蔵容器内は周囲の空間
を流れる冷気によって十分に冷却することができる。By configuring the present invention as described above, the interior of the product storage container can be maintained in a dry state, making it ideal for storing vegetables, etc., and the interior of the product storage container can be sufficiently cooled by the cold air flowing in the surrounding space. can do.

また冷蔵庫本体の前面開口部は冷蔵庫本体の奥部に比し
て高い温度になり、その高い温度影響によって物品貯蔵
容器の冷却効果が減少しようとするが、本考案ではこの
高い温度になり易い空気は前記帰還路によって上昇気流
として上部貯蔵室へ逃がすことができるので、物品貯蔵
容器の冷却効果を損うことはなくなる。In addition, the temperature at the front opening of the refrigerator body is higher than that at the back of the refrigerator body, and the effect of this high temperature tends to reduce the cooling effect of the goods storage container. can escape to the upper storage chamber as an upward air current through the return path, so that the cooling effect of the article storage container is not impaired.

また前記物品貯蔵容器の周囲へ上部貯蔵室から流下する
冷気は前記物品貯蔵容器と下部貯蔵室との間の空間に対
応した流通孔から流下して前記帰還路から上昇するため
、冷気の流通の障害が極めて少なくなり物品貯蔵容器を
周囲から速かに冷却できる効果がある。In addition, the cold air flowing down from the upper storage chamber around the article storage container flows down from the circulation hole corresponding to the space between the article storage container and the lower storage chamber and rises from the return path, so that the distribution of cold air is prevented. This has the effect of significantly reducing obstruction and allowing the article storage container to be quickly cooled from the surroundings.

更にまた前記帰還路は前記仕切前部材中の断熱材中に形
成したため、仕切前部材の前面への露付きを減少できる
共に前記物品貯蔵容器を下部貯蔵室の前面開口に近くな
る配置にできるため物品貯蔵容器を大きくできることに
もなる。Furthermore, since the return path is formed in the heat insulating material in the front partition member, it is possible to reduce dew on the front surface of the front partition member, and the article storage container can be placed close to the front opening of the lower storage chamber. It also means that the goods storage container can be made larger.

また前記仕切板の前端部は前記仕切前部材の下面に着脱
自在に略気密に支持されており、仕切板には物品貯蔵容
器の左右及び後方に冷気が流下する孔を設けているため
、前記物品貯蔵容器の周囲に冷気が良く流れ、この容器
の前面部から前記仕切前部材中の断熱材中に形成した帰
還路に良好に冷気が流れるようになり、前記物品貯蔵容
器を全周から冷却するのに適し、この容器が大きくなっ
てもこの容器内の物品の冷却を良好に行うことができる
。Further, the front end portion of the partition plate is removably supported on the lower surface of the partition front member in a substantially airtight manner, and the partition plate is provided with holes through which cool air flows down to the left, right, and rear sides of the article storage container. The cold air flows well around the article storage container, and the cold air flows well from the front of the container to the return path formed in the insulation material in the partition front member, cooling the article storage container from all around. Even if the container becomes large, the articles inside the container can be cooled well.

更に前記仕切板は着脱自在であるために清掃作業は勿論
のこと、仕切板を取り除いて前記容器内に背の高い物品
を貯蔵することもでき、冷蔵室を上下に区分けして前記
容器内は乾燥しないように野菜の貯蔵に適した方式と、
上下室を連通して一つの貯蔵室とした方式とに利用でき
るものである。Furthermore, since the partition plate is removable, it is possible not only to clean it, but also to store tall items in the container by removing the partition plate, and to divide the refrigerator compartment into upper and lower sections. A suitable method for storing vegetables to prevent them from drying out,
It can be used in a system where the upper and lower chambers are connected to form one storage chamber.
