Abstract
In all freezers and refrigerators all have integral plastic inner frame and the refrigerator door mezzanine both are filled with injection-type Styrofoam to keep cold. The plastic inner frames and Styrofoam are both environmentally unfriendly and difficult to recycle and wasteful a lot of energy.
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

This new model relates to field that injecting the Styrofoam into the plastic frame between the metal frames to make thermal insulation freezers and refrigerators.


PREVIOUS TECHNOLOGY

All freezers and refrigerators manufactured around the world have a metal shell with PVC plastic integrally injected into the five-sided inner frame and the refrigerator door inner space are filled with injection-type Styrofoam to keep cold. The plastic inner frame and foam plastic is both environmentally unfriendly and difficult to recycle.


UTILITY PATENT CONTENT

The innovative purpose of the new model is to use the metal frame interlayer of the refrigerator and the built-in vacuum airtight inner space of the refrigerator metal door. This innovation can eliminate the need to inject Styrofoam into the PVC plastic inner frame of the refrigerator for thermal insulation. It able to stainless steel fresh-keeping transportation inner and outer boxes and double-layer cover plates to replace the Styrofoam fresh-keeping cooler avoiding the environmental damage of Styrofoam which can't be recycled.





A SIMPLE DESCRIPTION OF SCHEMA


FIG. 1 is a schematic drawing of this invention applied to non-Styrofoam, non-Plastic inner frame of refrigerators.





APPLICATION METHOD

A single-door refrigerator is shown in FIG. 1. The outer door panel 10 and the inner door panel 102 of the refrigerator are air tightly welded with a 1 cm non-contact airtight inner space 101. The five-sided outer metal box frame 11 includes the back and the two sides on the left and right sides. There must be a 2 cm non-contact metal inner space 12 between the inner metal box frames 13. There are 5 metal pipes 121˜125 specially designed to penetrate through the outer metal frame 11 and the inner metal frame 13 of the refrigerator with ten holes reserved on the panels. The purpose is to connect the compressor refrigerant refrigeration function outside the refrigerator with the refrigeration function inside the refrigerator. Note that the metal pipes 121˜125 must be shown in FIG. 1, and the outer metal box frame 11 and the inner metal box frame 13 must be pre-installed on both ends of the plate. The remaining ten holes are air tightly welded on both sides to achieve a metal pipe 121 for the liquid refrigerant to pass through the compressor 14 through the inner space 12 keep airtight to connect to the condenser 15, and the metal pipe 122 for the refrigerant for gasification to pass through the condenser 15. The airtight inner space 12 is connected to the radiator 16. The metal pipe 123 is for gasification and pressurization of the refrigerant from the radiator 16 through the airtight inner space 12 and returns to the compressor 14. The metal pipe 124 is for the light source power line and the sensing thermostat 17 the pipelines are connected by the airtight inner space 12 in the refrigerator to the external frequency conversion power control box 171 of the refrigerator. The metal pipe 125 drains the dripping water from the condenser 15 in the refrigerator through the internal water canister 151 through the airtight inner space 12 to the refrigerator outer evaporation tray 152. Note that when each metal pipe penetrates the space of the airtight inner of 12, the metal pipe body must non-contact the panel's surface of the outer metal box frame 11 and the wall surface of the inner metal box frame 13. The two exhaust valves 20 are welded together separately to draw the airtight space into vacuum. The bottom of the refrigerator door 102 and the bottom of the inner metal box frame 11, the outer metal box frame 11 and the inner metal box frame 13 should be air-tightly welded around the front 126 position to form 12 with 2 cm that does non-touch the airtight space, and then the door frame rubber bead 103, which is exactly the same size as the refrigerator door, is placed at a predetermined position around the inner door 102 of the refrigerator. Finally, the top metal cover 18 of the radiator 16 is fixed at the predetermined position on the upper part of the outer metal box frame 11. The above all-metal products used the vacuum insulation and a cold insulation vertical single-door refrigerator is completed. Multiple metal partition spaces are able built in the metal box 13 of the same refrigerator, and the multi-temperature zone vertical multi-door refrigerator and freezer can be designed and made with no more have PVC plastic inner frame and no-environmentally hazardous Styrofoam.
