Abstract:
PURPOSE: To obtain a highly durable and reliable refrigerator in which liquid compression does not occur, by a method wherein two or more accumulators are provided and the open end of an inlet pipe of the accumulator on the downstream side of a refrigerant flow path is located at a higher elevation than the open end of an outlet pipe of the accumulator on the upstream side of the refrigerant flow path. CONSTITUTION: An accumulator 7 on the upstream side of a refrigerant flow path and an accumulator 8 on the downstream side of the refrigerant flow path are provided to completely gasify liquid refrigerant that remains un-evaporated at an evaporator 4, and connected by a piping. An open end 10 of the inlet pipe of the accumulator 8 on the downstream side of the refrigerant path is located at a higher elevation than an open end 9 of the outlet pipe of an accumulator 7 on the upstream side of the refrigerant flow path. Therefore, the liquid refrigerant is restrained from flowing into a piping between the accumulator 8 and a compressor 1 during defrosting operation and returns to the compressor 1 after it turns to gas refrigerant completely by the abrupt expansion in the accumulator 8 at the start-up time of the compressor 1. As a result, troubles of compressing parts such as a cylinder due to liquid compression can be prevented.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a heat-insulating box body the strength of which does not become an issue even when numerous vacuum insulating materials are used and which exhibits a high insulation efficiency, to provide a method of manufacturing raw material by which the recycling of materials used in the box body can be made easier by improving the recycling rates of the materials, and to provide a refrigerator. SOLUTION: The heat insulating box body exhibiting superior insulating performance and having high durability is obtained by using highly rigid low- density hard urethane foam manufactured by using a tolylene diisocyanate composition and water as a foaming agent together with a vacuum insulating material. Consequently, the recycling of the materials used in the box body by chemical recycling can be industrialized easily.
