Cold energy transfer unit 250 is arranged to the cold energy that evaporimeter 181 produces is passed to ice-making compartment 190, and it can be configured to through heat conduction or cold-producing medium cold energy is passed to ice machine 210.
In addition, cold energy transfer unit 250 can be configured to comprise: the first cold energy transfer unit 260, and this first cold energy transfer unit 260 is used to transmit cold energy, more particularly, is to transmit cold air; With the second cold energy transfer unit 310, this second cold energy transfer unit 310 is used for through transmitting cold energy.The second cold energy transfer unit 310 can be configured to comprise heat pipe 311.Heat pipe 311 can be configured to comprise tubular body 313 and the working fluid 314 that is sealed in the tubular body 313.The inside of tubular body 313 can be configured such that working fluid 314 can utilize capillarity and moves.For example, can be formed with the groove 315 that is used to produce capillarity at the inner wall surface place of tubular body 313.In addition, in tubular body 313, also can be provided with network structure (not shown) or the porous member (not shown) that is used to produce capillarity.Can come suitably to select working fluid 314 (for example, ethanol, water, mercury etc.) based on employed temperature range.
One end of heat pipe 311 is arranged to absorb heat the air in ice machine 210, and the other end of heat pipe 311 is to the lower area that extends below and be arranged in refrigerating-chamber door 135.In other words; Being arranged to of heat pipe 311 can be evaporation element 312a with an end of ice machine 210 heat exchanges; Be used to allow the working fluid in it to absorb and consumption heat on every side; And the other end of heat pipe 311 can be condensing unit 312b, is used to cool off the working fluid 314 that evaporates with condensation.Condensing unit 312b can be provided with a plurality of heat transfer sheets (heat transfer plate) 316, is used to increase heat exchange area.
The first cold energy transfer unit 260 be arranged to from the thermal energy transfer of heat pipe 311 to the cold air that produces by evaporimeter 181; This heat pipe 311 is second cold energy transfer units 310; And the first cold energy transfer unit 260 can be configured to comprise: concubine 270, and this concubine 270 is formed on refrigerating-chamber door 135 places; With interface channel 280, this interface channel 280 is used for refrigerating chamber 141 is connected to concubine 270.Here, from forming the angle of passage, the first cold energy transfer unit 260 can be defined as " cold air transmission channels ", and the cold air of refrigerating chamber 141 is passed to heat pipe 311 in this passage.
The first cold energy transfer unit 260 can also be provided with pipeline 291, and this pipeline 291 can be with delivering to interface channel 280 in the cold air concentrated area of evaporimeter 181 sides.
The end portion of heat pipe 311, be the lower area place that condensing unit 312b is arranged in refrigerating-chamber door 135, with the cold air in thermal energy transfer to the said concubine.Be formed with the inlet portion 272 and the export department 273 that is used to cold air is flowed out that is used to make the cold air inflow in concubine 270 sides.Inlet portion 272 can be configured to the protuberance of giving prominence to from refrigerating-chamber door 135 271, connect with export department 273.
Between refrigerating chamber 131 and refrigerating chamber 141, be formed with partition wall 142, and interface channel 280 can form to form the mobile route of cold air, this interface channel 280 is used for refrigerating chamber 141 is communicated with concubine 270.Here, show following situation: wherein, pipeline 291 is arranged in the place, top of refrigerating chamber 141, but pipeline 291 also can be configured to be arranged in the partition wall 142.
As shown in Figure 4, an end of the cold air flow pass 282 of interface channel 280 and an end of cold air flow channel 283 are formed at the place, bottom surface of refrigerating chamber 131.Between an end of the cold air flow pass 282 of the inlet portion 272 of concubine 270 and interface channel 280, the pad 293 that is used to prevent leakage of cold air can be provided with, and between an end of export department 273 and cold air flow channel 283, also pad 293 can be provided with.In this embodiment, show pad 293 and be arranged on the situation in inlet portion 272 and the export department 273.Here, the first cold energy transfer unit 260 (cold air transmission channels) can also be provided with the draft fan (not shown) that is used to quicken flow of cold air.As a result, drive the draft fan of lower-wattage, therefore reduced the running frequency (time) of the cooling fan 185 of higher evaporimeter 181 sides of power, thereby reduced power consumption so that cold air moves in the concubine 270.
The cold air that is produced by evaporimeter 181 moves in the interface channel 280 via pipeline 291.The cold air (more particularly, having moved to the cold air of cold air flow pass 282) that has moved in the interface channel 280 flows in the concubine 270 via inlet portion 272.Cold air in the inflow concubine 270 contacts with the condensing unit 312b of heat pipe 311 and carries out heat exchange, and this cold air flows into once more in the interface channel 280 via export department 273 and (more particularly, flows in the cold air flow channel 283) then.The cold air that flows in the cold air flow channel 283 is expelled in the refrigerating chamber 141.
On the other hand; The working fluid 314 that in the condensing unit 312b of heat pipe 311, cools down is condensed; And; The working fluid 314 that is condensed utilizes capillarity and moves to the upper end of heat pipe 311 along the inner wall surface of tubular body 313, and this inner wall surface for example is a groove 315, and said upper end for example is evaporation element 312a.The working fluid 314 that has moved among the evaporation element 312a absorbs and consumption heat on every side, more particularly, absorbs the heat that also consumes from ice machine 210.As a result, the water in each ice tray of ice machine 210 is frozen into ice cube.Make ice cube through repeating following process: in this process, be condensed, and move to again in the evaporation element 312 and evaporate thereby the working fluid that is evaporated 314 moves to condensing unit 312b once more.On the other hand, the ice cube of in ice machine 210, having made can the process through the release ice cube be stored in the ice bank 230, and is taken out to distributor 240 when needed.
Hereinafter, will an alternative embodiment of the invention be described with reference to figure 6 and Fig. 7.
