REFRIGERATOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17860344 titled 'REFRIGERATOR
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a refrigerator design that includes an inner case with a storage compartment, a plurality of plates formed by injection molding, an outer case, and an insulation material between the inner and outer cases. One of the plates has a front flange that forms part of the front surface of the inner case, and another plate is coupled to the first plate and also contributes to the front surface.
- The refrigerator design includes an inner case with a storage compartment.
- The inner case is made up of multiple plates that are formed through injection molding.
- An outer case is attached to the outer side of the inner case.
- An insulation material is placed between the inner and outer cases.
- One of the plates has a front flange that forms part of the front surface of the inner case.
- Another plate is coupled to the first plate and also contributes to the front surface.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Household refrigerators and freezers
- Commercial refrigeration units
- Industrial refrigeration systems
Problems solved by this technology:
- Simplifies the manufacturing process by using injection-molded plates for the inner case
- Provides a secure and efficient coupling mechanism for the front surface of the inner case
Benefits of this technology:
- Cost-effective production through injection molding
- Improved insulation and energy efficiency
- Enhanced durability and structural integrity
Original Abstract Submitted
A refrigerator including: an inner case defining a storage compartment and including a plurality of plates respectively formed by injection molding; an outer case coupled to an outer side of the inner case; and an insulation material interposed between the inner case and the outer case. A first plate among the plurality of plates includes a first front flange defining a part of a front surface of the inner case, and a second plate among the plurality of plates includes a second front flange defining another part of the front surface of the inner case and coupled to the first front flange.
