REFRIGERATOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240133610 titled 'REFRIGERATOR

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a refrigerator with a cold air supply duct that splits into two separate paths to supply cold air to two independent storage compartments.

  • The refrigerator has a cold air supply duct that branches into two independent cold air supply flow paths.
  • Each flow path supplies cold air to a separate partitioned storage compartment.
  • This design allows for independent temperature control of each storage compartment.
  • The system ensures that the cold air is evenly distributed to both compartments.
  • By having two separate flow paths, the refrigerator can maintain optimal temperature conditions in each compartment.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in household refrigerators, commercial refrigeration units, and other cooling systems that require precise temperature control for multiple compartments.

Problems Solved

This innovation solves the issue of uneven cooling in refrigerators with multiple compartments, ensuring that each storage area maintains the desired temperature independently.

Benefits

- Improved temperature control in each storage compartment - Even distribution of cold air - Enhanced efficiency in cooling performance

Potential Commercial Applications

- Refrigerators for households and commercial kitchens - Display cases in supermarkets and convenience stores - Medical refrigeration units for storing temperature-sensitive medications

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be refrigerators with dual evaporators that provide separate cooling systems for the freezer and refrigerator compartments.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology impact energy consumption compared to traditional refrigerators?

The article does not address the energy efficiency of the refrigerator with the dual cold air supply ducts.

Are there any limitations to the size or capacity of refrigerators that can implement this technology?

The article does not mention any restrictions on the size or capacity of refrigerators that can incorporate this innovation.


Original Abstract Submitted

a refrigerator includes a cold air supply duct that branches to two independent cold air supply flow paths such that the cold air supply duct supplies cold air for two independent partitioned storages.
