REFRIGERATOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18467091 titled 'REFRIGERATOR

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a refrigerator with an inner case, outer case, and a vacuum space between them for insulation. The inner case has an exterior appearance of a storage space and a communication hole. The outer case is spaced apart from the inner case and has a corresponding communication hole. A connection pipe passes through the vacuum space to connect the communication holes of the inner and outer cases.

  • The refrigerator has an inner case and outer case with a vacuum space between them for insulation.
  • The inner case defines the exterior appearance of the storage space and has a communication hole.
  • The outer case is spaced apart from the inner case and has a corresponding communication hole.
  • A connection pipe passes through the vacuum space to connect the communication holes of the inner and outer cases.

Potential Applications

  • Household refrigerators
  • Commercial refrigerators
  • Industrial refrigerators

Problems Solved

  • Improved insulation to keep the inner case colder and reduce energy consumption.
  • Prevents heat transfer from the outer case to the inner case.

Benefits

  • Energy efficiency due to improved insulation.
  • Maintains a consistent temperature inside the refrigerator.
  • Reduces the workload of the cooling system.
  • Helps preserve the freshness and quality of stored items.


Original Abstract Submitted

A refrigerator including an inner case, an outer case, and a vacuum space provided between the inner case and the outer case to insulate the inner case from the outer case. The inner case defines an exterior appearance of a storage space, with a communication hole formed therein. The outer case is spaced apart a predetermined distance from the inner case, and a communication is formed at a position corresponding to the communication hole of the inner case. A connection pipe passes through the vacuum space to connect the communication hole of the inner case and the communication hole of the outer case with each other.
