REFRIGERATOR AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240230215 titled 'REFRIGERATOR AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF
The abstract of this patent application describes a method to improve power consumption during a load operation in a storage compartment by terminating the operation based on specific conditions being met.
- The load operation is terminated when the compartment temperature satisfies a termination condition, triggered by the opening of a door or a temperature change in the compartment.
- This innovation aims to prevent excessive power consumption during the load operation, leading to improved power efficiency.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be applied in refrigerators, freezers, and other storage compartments to optimize power consumption. - It can also be used in temperature-controlled storage units in various industries such as pharmaceuticals, food storage, and research laboratories.
Problems Solved: - Addresses the issue of excessive power consumption during load operations in storage compartments. - Provides a more efficient way to manage temperature control and energy usage in such compartments.
Benefits: - Improved power efficiency leading to cost savings. - Enhanced temperature control and management in storage compartments. - Reduced environmental impact through lower energy consumption.
Commercial Applications: - Refrigerator and freezer manufacturers can integrate this technology to offer energy-efficient products. - Companies operating temperature-controlled storage facilities can benefit from reduced energy costs and improved sustainability practices.
Questions about the Technology: 1. How does this technology compare to existing methods of managing power consumption in storage compartments? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this innovation in different types of storage units?
Frequently Updated Research: - Stay updated on advancements in energy-efficient technologies for storage compartments. - Monitor developments in temperature control systems for commercial and residential applications.
Original Abstract Submitted
according to the present disclosure, after a load operation is performed by satisfying a start condition of the load operation, the load operation is terminated when a compartment temperature of a storage compartment satisfies a termination condition when a door is opened or when a temperature change in the storage compartment satisfies the termination condition. accordingly, excessive power consumption during the load operation may be prevented, and thus power consumption may be improved.
