Abstract: PURPOSE:To provide a refrigerator with a high evaporating capability to evaporate a waste water which is accumulated in an evaporation tray efficiently, concerning a refrigerator for which a bottom structure is built in the lower part of the refrigerator main body. CONSTITUTION:A box body 16 of a bottom structure 15 consists of an inner peripheral frame 9, outer peripheral frame 22 and a storage surface 17 to fix a high tension side unit and an evaporation tray 23, and the bottom structure 15 is constituted of a protruding surface 25 at the center of a bottom surface 24 of the evaporation tray, and an evaporation plate 26 which comes into contact with the protruding surface 25.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent water from being spilt during conveyance and at the time of opening and closing of a door, to facilitate placing and taking-out of an ice making device and ice, to improve efficiency, and to shorten an ice making time. SOLUTION: This refrigerator is formed such that an ice making device 16 with a proper amount of ice making water being supplied in an ice making tray 14 and a cover body 15 being covered is installed on rails consisting of a side walls groove 10a of a containment container 10 and an upper end face 11a of a partition wall 11, situated at the upper part of a partition wall 13 with the containment container 10 being opened. Since the rails are formed from this side to a deep part, the ice making device 16 is situated this side of the rails without fully opening the containment container 10, and by minimizing discharge of chamber cold air during opening of the door, high-efficient cooling operation is practicable. Further, the containment container 10 is opened, the ice making device 16 is pushed inward in a manner to be slid in a direction 17 on the rails. Stored ice is placed in and took out without taking out the ice making device 16 from an ice storage section situated at the lower part of the ice making device 16 and operation is completed by a single hand.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cooler having high energy conservation function by suppressing irregularity of a temperature in the cooler, uniform temperature cooling and suppressing an operating rate with high durability in the cooler used for a refrigerator. SOLUTION: A hollow container 3 is disposed on a circumference of the cooler 1 so as to be brought into contact with a refrigerant passage 2, and cool storage material 4 is charged. A temperature regulating heat-sensitive tube 5 is fixed to a surface of the container 3 of the cooler side. When cooling is started, the material 4 in the container 3 is solidified. When a temperature in the cooler 1 is lowered to exceed a designated temperature, the tube 5 senses the temperature to turn on or off the cooling. During cooling-on period, the cooler 1 derives heat. During cooling-off period, the material 4 derives heat by its thermal storage effect. Accordingly, the cooler 1 can be always held therein at a uniform temperature irrespective of turned-on or turned-off state of the cooling.

Abstract: PURPOSE:To decrease consumption of power and noise by a method wherein an ice making tray is provided with A section cup line and B section cup line which are arranged symmetrically with respect to a supporting shaft provided in a central part of the ice making tray, and a driving device is provided to rotate the ice making tray in two directions around the supporting shaft. CONSTITUTION:An ice making tray 23 provided at a corner in a freezing chamber has A section cup line and B section cup line which are arranged symmectrially with respect to a supporting shaft 12 which is provided in a central part of the ice making tray 23. A driving device 11 rotates the ice making tray 23 in two directions around the supporting shaft 12. cutouts 26 and 27 are formed respectively at two corners on one diagonal line of the ice making tray 23, through which the ice making tray 23 can avoid collision with stoppers 28 and 29 which are provided respectively on a frame 14 supporting the ice making tray 23 and on an external surface of the driving device 11. By this, a start of a motor of the driving device can be completed at one time. As a result, consumption of power can be decreased, and further operation time can be decreased by half. Therefore noise can also be decreased.
