REFRIGERATOR DOOR HAVING VACUUM INSULATION ASSEMBLY AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18035023 titled 'REFRIGERATOR DOOR HAVING VACUUM INSULATION ASSEMBLY AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The present invention is about a refrigerator door with a vacuum insulation assembly and a method for manufacturing it. The door consists of two bodies, a first door body and a second door body, which are coupled together to form the exterior of the door.
- The first door body and the second door body create a heat insulating space between them.
- A vacuum insulation assembly is installed in the heat insulating space.
- The vacuum insulation assembly has a sealed vacuum chamber inside it.
- The edge of the vacuum insulation assembly can be surrounded by a foam filled part.
- The vacuum insulation assembly provides high insulation performance, allowing it to replace the existing foam filled part.
- By using the vacuum insulation assembly, the thickness of the refrigerator door can be reduced.
Potential Applications
- This technology can be applied to various types of refrigerators, including household refrigerators, commercial refrigerators, and industrial refrigerators.
- It can also be used in other insulated doors, such as freezer doors or cold storage doors.
Problems Solved
- The vacuum insulation assembly provides better insulation performance compared to traditional foam filled parts.
- By reducing the thickness of the refrigerator door, this technology helps to save space in kitchens or storage areas.
Benefits
- Improved insulation performance leads to energy savings and reduced electricity consumption.
- Thinner refrigerator doors allow for more efficient use of space.
- The vacuum insulation assembly provides a more durable and long-lasting solution compared to foam filled parts.
Original Abstract Submitted
The present invention relates to a refrigerator door having a vacuum insulation assembly and a method for manufacturing the same, including a first door body and a second door body coupled to each other to form the exterior of the door. A heat insulating space is formed between the first door body and the second door body, and the vacuum insulation assembly is installed in the heat insulating space. A sealed vacuum chamber is formed inside the vacuum insulation assembly, and the edge of the vacuum insulation assembly can be surrounded by a foam filled part. As such, the vacuum insulation assembly is installed inside the refrigerator door, and the vacuum insulation assembly has high insulation performance, and thus can replace the existing foam filled part, and therefore, the thickness of the refrigerator door can be reduced.
