Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field The present invention relates to a refrigerator for guest rooms such as hotels and inns.

2. Description of the Related Art In the conventional structure for attaching food / drink storage shelves of a refrigerator for guest rooms at hotels / inns, for example, a cooler provided with food / drink storage shelves consisting of upper, middle, and lower stages and provided on the inner surface of the refrigerator. It is a structure that cools the inside of the refrigerator and the food and drink storage shelves by
It is as shown in FIG. A heat insulating material 3 is filled between the outer box 1 and the inner box 2. A cooler 5 of a cool air natural convection system is provided at the back of the interior 4, and food and drink storage shelves 6 are provided in upper, middle, and lower three stages, respectively, and an opening 8 of a back surface bent portion 7 is provided.
From the cooler 5 (hereinafter referred to as cold air) to the food and drink storage rack 6.

However, in such a structure, since the cool air is heavier than the warm air, the cool air from the cooler 5 provided at the back of the interior 4 of the refrigerator naturally accumulates at the lower stage of the food and drink storage shelf 6, and the food and drink is stored. The upper shelf of the storage rack 6 has a high temperature, and the lower shelf has a low temperature, which tends to cause a large temperature difference.

In view of this, the present invention solves the above-mentioned drawbacks by providing a shield plate between the cooler and the food and drink storage shelves, and allows the cool air of the cooler to flow from the upper stage of the food and drink storage shelves to the middle and lower stages to improve the convection of the cool air. The purpose is to reduce the temperature difference between the upper, middle, and lower storage shelves to make them uniform.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above problems, the present invention places a shield plate between the cooler and the food and drink storage shelves at the bottom of the inner box and the top of the shield plate of the food and drink storage shelves. It is a structure that is fixed in contact with the upper back surface.

Action With this structure, cool air passes through the upper part of the shield plate, and cool air convection is performed from the upper back of the food and drink storage shelves to the middle and lower parts of the food and drink storage shelves. It can be performed.

Embodiment An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3.

An outer box 1 is filled with a heat insulating material 3 between it and the inner box 2. A shield plate 11 is fixed to the inner surface of the inner box 2 with screws or the like. The lower part of the shielding plate 11 is in contact with the bottom of the inner box 2, and the upper part of the shielding plate 11 is in contact with the opening 8 of the bent portion 7 of the upper back surface of the food and drink storage rack 6. Therefore, the cool air of the cooler 5 attached to the inner surface of the inside of the compartment 4 is first shielded by the shield plate 11
And the cooler 5 and then overflows from the upper part of the shielding plate 11, and the opening 8 of the upper back folding part 7 of the food and drink storage shelf 6
Also, the cool air of the cooler 5 is convected from the upper stage of the food and drink storage shelf 6 to the middle stage and the lower stage through the opening 9 and the like.

Therefore, since the convection of the cool air from the cooler 5 becomes more uniform than in the conventional case, the temperature difference between the food and drink storage shelves 6 can be reduced.

Effect of the Invention As is apparent from the above description, according to the present invention, one end of the shield plate on the inner surface of the inside of the refrigerator comes into contact with the bottom of the inner box, and the other end of the shield plate is formed on the bent portion of the upper inner surface of the food storage rack. By coming into contact with the opening, the cool air of the cooler attached to the inner surface of the refrigerator accumulates between the shield plate and the cooler, and convects from the upper part of the shield plate to each food and drink storage shelf. Therefore, since the convection of the cool air from the cooler becomes more uniform than in the conventional case, the temperature difference between the food and drink storage shelves can be reduced.
