In a device configured to circulate cold air to the food storage room through a passage provided in a partition wall, the present invention provides a structure that facilitates support of a dew tray that receives defrost water from the cooler.

次に本考案の実施例を図に基づき詳述する。Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail based on the drawings.

１は冷蔵庫本体で合成樹脂製の内箱２と外箱３との間の
空間に断熱材４を充填した断熱構造である。Reference numeral 1 denotes a refrigerator body, which has a heat insulating structure in which a space between an inner box 2 and an outer box 3 made of synthetic resin is filled with a heat insulating material 4.

本体１の庫内は断熱仕切壁５にて上下に冷凍庫６と冷蔵
庫７とに区画している。The interior of the main body 1 is vertically divided into a freezer 6 and a refrigerator 7 by a heat insulating partition wall 5.

冷凍庫６内は仕切壁８にて前後に区画し前方の室を食品
貯蔵室６Ａとし後方の室を冷却器室６Ｂとしている。The interior of the freezer 6 is divided into front and rear sections by a partition wall 8, with the front chamber serving as a food storage chamber 6A and the rear chamber serving as a cooler chamber 6B.

仕切壁８は断熱材で作られた比較的厚い断熱板１０と合
成樹脂製化粧板９とで構成されている。The partition wall 8 is composed of a relatively thick heat insulating board 10 made of a heat insulating material and a decorative board 9 made of synthetic resin.

１１は冷凍システムの蒸発器を構成した冷却器で、冷媒
パイプ１１Ａに交差した多数の板状フィン１１Ｂで構成
され除霜ヒータパイプ１２がフィン１１Ｂを貫通してい
る。A cooler 11 constitutes an evaporator of the refrigeration system, and is composed of a large number of plate-shaped fins 11B intersecting with a refrigerant pipe 11A, and a defrosting heater pipe 12 passes through the fins 11B.

冷却器１１は冷却器室６Ｂの背面の内箱２と仕切壁８と
の間に略いっばいに収納され冷却器１１の後面を略全体
にわたって広く被ったアルミニウム等の熱良導板１３が
冷却器に取りつけられ内箱２の裏面に設けた支持板１４
に対して冷却器１１と共に螺着１５している。The cooler 11 is housed almost all together between the inner box 2 and the partition wall 8 on the back of the cooler chamber 6B, and is cooled by a thermally conductive plate 13 made of aluminum or the like that widely covers almost the entire rear surface of the cooler 11. A support plate 14 attached to the container and provided on the back side of the inner box 2
The cooler 11 and the cooler 11 are screwed together 15.

冷却器室６Ｂの下部には内箱２を窪ませて凹所１６を形
成し、との凹所１６には裏面に電気ヒータ１７を貼着し
た露受皿１８を収納している。In the lower part of the cooler chamber 6B, the inner box 2 is recessed to form a recess 16, and the recess 16 houses a dew pan 18 with an electric heater 17 attached to the back surface.

露受皿１８の前端部のフランジは化粧板９の下部の押え
部１９で露受皿１８の略全長にわたって押え支持すると
共に露受皿１８の後部上端１８Ａは内箱２に形成した突
部２０の下方に位置し熱良導板１３の下端部にて突部２
０に沿って押え支持されている。The flange at the front end of the dew pan 18 is pressed and supported over almost the entire length of the dew pan 18 by a holding part 19 at the lower part of the decorative board 9, and the upper rear end 18A of the dew pan 18 is held below the protrusion 20 formed on the inner box 2. The protrusion 2 is located at the lower end of the heat conducting plate 13.
It is supported by a presser along 0.

この支持によって露受皿１８は前方及び上方へ移動して
凹所１６から外れ出ない様に支持される。This support prevents the dew pan 18 from moving forward and upward and coming out of the recess 16.

２１は冷却器１１の上方に配置され仕切壁８の冷気吐出
通路２２から冷却器室６Ｂ内の冷気を食品貯蔵室６Ａ内
に吐出し仕切壁８の冷気吸込通路２３から冷却器室６Ｂ
へ冷気を吸込む循環を行う。Reference numeral 21 is arranged above the cooler 11, and discharges cold air in the cooler chamber 6B from the cold air discharge passage 22 of the partition wall 8 into the food storage chamber 6A, and from the cold air suction passage 23 of the partition wall 8 to the cooler chamber 6B.
Circulate the cold air into the

上記の如く構成したことにより、冷却器１１の除霜水は
下方に落下して露受皿１８内に受けとめられ排水パイプ
２４から庫外へ流出する。With the above configuration, the defrosting water in the cooler 11 falls downward, is received in the dew tray 18, and flows out of the refrigerator from the drain pipe 24.

一方冷却器１１から熱良導板１３を伝って流下する水滴
は、熱良導板１３の下端が露受皿１８内に位置している
ために露受皿１８内へスムーズに導入される。On the other hand, water droplets flowing down from the cooler 11 along the heat conductive plate 13 are smoothly introduced into the dew pan 18 because the lower end of the heat conductive plate 13 is located within the dew pan 18.

また仕切壁８の裏面の水滴は押え部１９から露受皿１８
内へ導入できる。In addition, water droplets on the back side of the partition wall 8 are removed from the holding part 19 to the dew pan 18.
It can be introduced inside.

このため冷却器室内の水滴の排水構造として良好なもの
である。Therefore, it is a good drainage structure for water droplets in the cooler chamber.

また露受皿１８は仕切壁８と熱良導板とによって支持さ
れるため、特別な支持具を省略でき内箱に露受皿支持の
ための孔を開けないので断熱材４を現物発泡する場合の
シールが簡単になるものである。In addition, since the dew pan 18 is supported by the partition wall 8 and the heat conducting plate, a special support device can be omitted, and a hole for supporting the dew pan can be omitted in the inner box. This makes sealing easier.

本考案は上記の如く、露受皿の前後の支持が、庫内を食
品貯蔵室と冷却器室とに仕切る仕切壁と、冷却器後面に
設けた熱良導板にて支持するために、露受皿の支持に特
別な支持具を省略でき、冷却器の除霜水の露受皿への導
入も確実に達成できるものである。As described above, the present invention is designed so that the front and rear support of the dew pan is supported by the partition wall that partitions the inside of the refrigerator into the food storage room and the cooler room, and the heat conductive plate provided on the rear surface of the cooler. A special support for supporting the tray can be omitted, and defrosting water from the cooler can be reliably introduced into the dew tray.

そして冷却器の後面に設けた熱良導板は除霜時のヒータ

箱が集中して加熱されることがないように作用するが、
この熱良導板を除霜水のガイド板とすることができると
共に露受皿の支持板として共用できる点で極めて効果的
である。The heat conducting plate provided at the rear of the cooler can evenly distribute the heat from the heater during defrosting to the cooler, and also works to prevent the inner box from being heated in a concentrated manner.
This heat conducting plate is extremely effective in that it can be used as a guide plate for defrosting water and can also be used as a support plate for the dew pan.
