Description

조리대 겸용 냉장고Countertop Refrigerator

본 발명은 조리대 겸용 냉장고에 관한 것으로, 특히 일반 냉장고에 조리대를 부착하고, 그 냉장고의 냉기를 이용하여 조리대 및 냉장고 기능을 겸비할 수 있는 조리대 겸용 냉장고에 관한 것이다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a countertop refrigerator, and more particularly, to a countertop refrigerator which can attach a countertop to a general refrigerator and have a countertop and a refrigerator function using cold air of the refrigerator.

일반적으로 가정이나 음식점 등의 주방에서 주로 사용되는 냉장고(1)는 제1도에 도시된 바와 같이 그 설치위치가 사용자의 주활동공간이 되는 조리대(2)와는 통상 일정한 거리를 두고 배치되고 있는 바, 냉장고(1)의 수납물을 이용하여야 할 때마다 사용자가 냉장고(1)와 조리대(2) 사이를 왕복하면서 요리를 하게 되어 있다.In general, the refrigerator 1, which is mainly used in a kitchen such as a home or a restaurant, is generally arranged at a certain distance from the countertop 2 whose installation position is a main activity space of the user, as shown in FIG. Whenever the objects of the refrigerator 1 are to be used, the user cooks while reciprocating between the refrigerator 1 and the countertop 2.

또한, 설치공간이 비교적 여유가 있어 상기 냉장고(1)와 조리대(2)를 부착배치하는 경우에는 그 왕복거리를 최소화할 수 있으나, 통상 주방은 그 공간이 협소하거나 다른 배치물들에 의해 부착배치가 방해되는 경우가 있으므로 이러한 경우에는 굳이 냉장고(1)와 조리대(2)를 부착배치할 이유가 없없다.In addition, since the installation space is relatively large, when the refrigerator 1 and the countertop 2 are attached to each other, the reciprocating distance can be minimized. However, in general, the kitchen has a small space or other arrangements. In this case, there is no reason to attach and arrange the refrigerator 1 and the countertop 2 in this case.

그러나, 주지한 바와 같이 상기 냉장고(1)와 조리대(2)가 일정한 거리를 두고 개별적으로 배치되거나, 설사 부착배치되더라도 사용자가 그 거리만큼은 이동을 해가면서 요리를 하여야 하므로 사용자의 노동강도가 증가되는 것은 물론, 상기 조리대(2)의 하측은 통상 빈공간이 되므로 주방의 공간활용도 측면에서도 불필요한 낭비가 뒤따르게 되는 문제점이 있었다.However, as is well known, the refrigerator 1 and the countertop 2 are individually disposed at a predetermined distance, or even if they are arranged with diarrhea, the user must cook while moving by that distance, thereby increasing the labor intensity of the user. Of course, since the lower side of the countertop 2 is usually an empty space, there is a problem that unnecessary waste is also followed in terms of space utilization of the kitchen.

따라서, 본 발명은 조리대를 겸할 수 있는 냉장고를 제시함으로써, 사용자의 노동강도를 감소시키는 것은 물론 주방의 공간활용도도 향상시키는데 그 목적이 있다.Therefore, an object of the present invention is to reduce the labor intensity of the user as well as to improve the space utilization of the kitchen by providing a refrigerator that can also serve as a kitchen counter.

본 발명에 의한 조리대 겸용 냉장고는 제2도에 도시된 바와 같이, 냉장실(10)의 일측 하부에 인너케이스와 아웃케이스를 관통하도록 냉기토출구(11)가 형성되고, 그 냉기토출구(11)의 상부에는 냉기흡입팬(12)이 그 입구측에 장착된 냉기흡입구(13)가 형성되며, 그 냉기흡입구(13)와 통상의 증발기(미도시)가 포함된 냉각실(미도시)의 하부를 연통시키는 별도의 흡입덕트(14)가 내장된다.In the countertop refrigerator according to the present invention, as shown in FIG. 2, a cold air outlet 11 is formed at one lower portion of the refrigerating compartment 10 to penetrate the inner case and the outer case, and an upper portion of the cold air outlet 11 is formed. There is formed a cold air inlet 13 with a cold air suction fan 12 mounted at the inlet side thereof, and communicates the lower part of the cooling chamber (not shown) including the cold air inlet 13 and a normal evaporator (not shown). To separate suction duct 14 is built.

또한, 상기 냉장실(10) 케이스의 일측 외부에는 조리대(20)가 밀착되는데, 그 조리대(20)의 하부에는 상기 냉기토출구(11)와 냉기흡입구(13)를 포함하여 밀폐되는 수납실(21)이 형성되고, 그 수납실(21)의 전방에는 냉기유출 차단장치(미도시)가 구비된 미닫이형 수납실 개폐도어(22)가 설치되며, 그 조리대(20)의 상단에는 통상의 조리판(23)이 형성된다.In addition, a countertop 20 is in close contact with the outside of the case of the refrigerating compartment 10, and the lower compartment of the countertop 20 includes the cold air outlet 11 and the cold air suction port 13 to be sealed. Is formed, the front of the storage chamber 21 is provided with a sliding type storage chamber opening and closing door 22 is provided with a cold air leakage blocking device (not shown), the upper side of the counter 20, the usual cooking plate ( 23) is formed.

상기와 같이 구성되는 본 발명의 조리대 겸용 냉장고에 있어서, 그 일반적인 냉장고 내의 냉기순환과정은 본 발명에 의해 한정적으로 권리를 받고자 하는 권리범위와 직접적으로 관계되지 않으므로 구체적인 설명은 생략하고, 이하는 냉장실에서 토출되는 냉기가 조리대를 거쳐 다시 냉장고의 냉각실로 유입되는 과정을 중심으로 설명한다.In the countertop refrigerator of the present invention configured as described above, the cold air circulation process in the general refrigerator is not directly related to the scope of the right to be limited by the present invention, and thus, a detailed description thereof will be omitted. A description will be given focusing on a process in which the cold air discharged is introduced into the cooling chamber of the refrigerator through the countertop.

즉, 제3도에 도시된 바와 같이, 통상적으로 냉각실(미도시)을 통해 냉장실(10)로 전달되는 냉기는, 그 냉장실(10)의 하부에 형성되는 냉기토출구(11)를 통해 조리대 (20)의 수납실(21)로 배출되어 그 수납실(21)에 적제된 수납물에 냉기를 공급하고, 그 수납실(21)을 선회하면서 일정정도 온도가 높아진 더운냉기는 상기 냉기토출구(11)의 상부에 장착된 흡입팬(12)에 의해 냉기흡입구(13)로 흡입되어 흡입덕트(13)를 따라 냉동실의 후측에 구비된 통상의 냉각실(미도시) 하단으로 흡상된다.That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the cold air, which is typically delivered to the refrigerating chamber 10 through a cooling chamber (not shown), is provided through a countertop through a cold air discharge opening 11 formed at the lower portion of the refrigerating chamber 10. The hot air discharged into the storage chamber 21 of 20 and supplied with cold air to the storage material stored in the storage chamber 21, and the temperature of the hot air being raised to a certain degree while turning the storage chamber 21 is the cold air discharge outlet 11 It is sucked into the cold air suction port 13 by the suction fan 12 mounted on the top of the) and is sucked along the suction duct 13 to the bottom of a normal cooling chamber (not shown) provided on the rear side of the freezing chamber.

이렇게 흡상되는 더운 냉기는 냉장고의 각 부위에서 유입되는 더운 냉기와 함께 냉각되어 다시 송풍팬(미도시)에 의해 분배 공급되는 것이다.The hot cold air sucked in this way is cooled together with the hot cold air flowing from each part of the refrigerator, and is supplied again by a blowing fan (not shown).

한편, 상기 조리대(20)의 수납실(21)은 사용자가 원하는 수납물을 인출 또는 수납시에 상기 수납실 개폐도어(22)를 개방하여 수납 또는 인출을 마친 다음에는 반대로 상기 도어(22)를 폐쇄하고, 그 수납물을 조리판(23)에서 소정의 작업을 하게 되는데, 이때 상기 도어(22)와 수납실(21)의 접촉부위에는 가스켓(미도시) 등의 냉기유출 차단장치(미도시)를 별도로 설치하여 냉기의 누수를 방지하도록 하는 것이 바람직하다.Meanwhile, the storage compartment 21 of the countertop 20 opens the storage compartment opening / closing door 22 at the time of dispensing or storing an object desired by the user. The object is closed and the object is made a predetermined operation on the cooking plate 23. In this case, a cold air leakage blocking device such as a gasket (not shown) is provided at a contact portion between the door 22 and the storage compartment 21. ) Is separately installed to prevent the leakage of cold air.

참고로, 본 발명에서는 상기 냉장고와 조리대의 냉기순환에 대한 일례를 한정 설명하여 냉장고의 냉각실 내에서 그 냉기의 일부를 조리대의 수납실로 토출하는 것이나, 그 외에도 상기 냉장고에서 조리대로 냉기를 공급하기 위한 다수개의 수단이 있을 수 있으므로, 단지 전술한 일례에 의해 그 권리범위가 한정되지는 않는다.For reference, the present invention is limited to an example of the cold air circulation of the refrigerator and the countertop to discharge a part of the cold air in the refrigerator compartment of the refrigerator to the storage compartment of the countertop, or to supply cold air to the countertop from the refrigerator. Since there may be a plurality of means for, the scope of the right is not limited only by the above-described example.

이상에서 설명한 바와 같이 본 발명에 의한 조리대 겸용 냉장고는, 상기 냉장실의 일측에 냉기토출구 및 흡입팬이 구비된 냉기흡입구를 형성하고, 그 냉기흡입구는 통상의 냉각실과 연통되도록 하며, 그 냉기토출구와 냉기흡입구는 수납실이 밀폐, 구비된 조리대와 일체시킴으로써, 사용자의 노동강도를 감소되는 것은 물론 주방의 공간활용도도 향상되는 효과가 있다.As described above, the countertop refrigerator according to the present invention forms a cold air inlet provided with a cold air outlet and a suction fan on one side of the refrigerating compartment, and the cold air inlet communicates with a normal cooling chamber, and the cold air outlet and the cold air. The suction port is integrated with the countertop provided with a sealed chamber, thereby reducing the labor intensity of the user as well as improving the space utilization of the kitchen.
