Definitions

  • the present invention relates to refrigerators, and particularly relates to a supporting structure for a shelf or container arranged inside of a storage compartment.
  • a refrigerator usually has drawer containers considering that the drawer containers allows storing items all the way to the back of the storage compartment without wasting space, and are highly convenient for the user. Since these drawer containers store items such as food, it is important that the food items can be taken in and out of the container easily.
  • Patent specification US-A-4 173 378 discloses a refrigerator according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Patent Literature 1 Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2006-78168
  • a conventional refrigerator which is a vertically long cuboid partitioned by a wall at an intermediate part in the width direction, and has storage compartments of different types provided on the right and left.
  • a refrigerator is referred to as a side-by-side (SBS) refrigerator, for example.
  • SBS refrigerator one of the storage compartments is a refrigerator compartment, and the other of the storage compartments is a freezer compartment, for example.
  • the refrigerator compartment and the freezer compartment of the SBS refrigerator are vertically long. Accordingly, in addition to the shelves arranged vertically aligned with each other, and containers are arranged vertically aligned with each other under the lowermost shelf.
  • the containers are generally detachably attached to the refrigerator for maintenance such as cleaning. Accordingly, the user can remove the uppermost container among the multiple containers from the refrigerator, for example.
  • the container is merely removed from the storage compartment, exposing an opening of the container under the removed container.
  • the area for placing items such as food does not actually increase.
  • the refrigerator according to the present invention is a refrigerator as defined in claim 1.
  • the shelf is arranged immediately below or immediately above the container.
  • the shelf is arranged under the container, it is possible to use the space occupied by the container as an area for placing items such as food by removing the container.
  • the shelf when the shelf is arranged immediately above the container, by removing the container immediately above the shelf, it is possible to effectively use the area occupied by the container that is removed.
  • the usability is secured even when the container is removed. Furthermore, the supporting unit for these effects produces significant effects by the structural feature.
  • the supporting unit in the refrigerator according to the present invention integrally includes the container support and the shelf support, and thus it is possible to make the supporting unit compact, without unnecessarily consuming the inner space of the storage compartment.
  • the present invention is implemented by a method effective and practical in terms of the manufacturing cost and manufacturing process, for example.
  • the supporting unit further includes two projections each arranged at an end of the supporting unit in a moving direction of the container, and among the two projections, the projection located at a front when the supporting unit is attached to the refrigerator regulates a maximum pullout distance of the container by coming into contact with a fixing unit arranged at an end portion of the container.
  • the projection located at a front among the two projections serves as a member for regulating the maximum pullout distance of the container.
  • either of them may be arranged on the right side of the container, and either of them may be arranged on the left side of the container.
  • the same supporting units may be used in common for left side and right side of the container. More specifically, as a member for slidably holding the container, the same member is used on the right and left. Accordingly, it is not necessary to design and manufacture the member for left side and the member for right side separately.
  • the shelf is made of glass.
  • the shelf also serves as a lid of the container immediately below the shelf.
  • the shelf being a glass plate allows achieving sufficient heat-insulating effect and sufficiently retaining moisture inside of the container.
  • the supporting unit may further include a fixing member arranged above the shelf support, the fixing member being for fixing the shelf, and movement of the end of the shelf in a vertical direction is regulated when the end of the shelf is interposed between the fixing member and the shelf support.
  • the shelf is supported by the supporting unit more stably, preventing the shelf from being loose, for example.
  • the fixing member may have elasticity that allows the fixing member to extend and contract in length in a direction perpendicular to the inner side wall, and by the extension and the contraction of the fixing member in length in the direction vertical to the inner side wall, the end of the shelf may be capable of being interposed between the fixing member and the shelf support from above the fixing member, and may be capable of being removed upward from a gap between the fixing member and the shelf support.
  • the shelf can be easily attached to and detached from the supporting unit, improving the convenience when cleaning the shelf, for example.
  • the present invention provides a refrigerator which includes a container, and secures usability even when the container is removed.
