Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to a deodorizer for a refrigerator, and more particularly, to a deodorizer for a refrigerator capable of improving deodorizing performance by increasing a surface area coming in contact with the cool air.
- 2. Description of the Background Art
- In general, a refrigerator maintains freshness of food items as cool air cooled by a freezing cycle is sent to a freezing compartment (chamber) and a refrigerating compartment (chamber) to freeze food items stored in the freezing compartment or to maintain food items stored in the refrigerating compartment at a low temperature.
- In the refrigerating compartment, food items are stored at a temperature that is higher than a freezing point, unlike the freezing compartment in which the food items are stored in a frozen state. For this reason, the smell (odor) is generated from the food items stored in the refrigerating compartment. In order to remove such odor generated from various food items stored in the refrigerating compartment, a deodorizer is installed inside the refrigerating compartment.
-
FIG. 1 is a sectional view of a general refrigerator. - A general side by side type refrigerator includes a main body 10 having a receiving space therein; a
freezing compartment 12 disposed at one of left and right sides of the main body 10, for keeping frozen items; and a refrigeratingcompartment 14 separated from thefreezing compartment 12 by amullion wall 16 and disposed at the other one of the left and right sides of the main body 10, for keeping cooled items. - A
heat exchanger 18 by which air is cooled while passing therethrough, and a blowingfan 20 for forcedly sending the air cooled by theheat exchanger 18 into the refrigeratingcompartment 14 are installed at a rear upper wall of thefreezing compartment 12. - A cool-
air supply passage 22 through which the cool air is supplied from the blowingfan 20 into the refrigeratingcompartment 14 is formed at an upper side of themullion wall 16, and a cool-air suction passage 24 through which the cool air, which has completed cooling operation while circulating inside the refrigeratingcompartment 14, is introduced to theheat exchanger 18 is formed at a lower side of themullion wall 16. - The refrigerating
compartment 14 is provided with a rear cool-air discharge duct 26 communicating with the cool-air supply passage 22 and installed at a rear wall of the refrigerating compartment, for discharging the cool air from the rear of the refrigeratingcompartment 14; a left cool-air discharge duct 28 installed at the left side of the refrigeratingcompartment 14, for discharging the cool air from the left side of the refrigeratingcompartment 14; and a right cool-air discharge duct 30 for discharging the cool air from the right side of the refrigeratingcompartment 14. - The cool-
air suction passage 24 is installed with adeodorizer assembly 32 for removing the odor contained in the cool air which has completed cooling operation for food items stored in the refrigerating chamber while circulating inside the refrigerating chamber. -
FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of a deodorizer assembly according to the conventional art. - The deodorizer assembly according to the conventional art includes a
case 110 mounted at the cool-air suction passage 24 and having areceiving space 116 and a plurality of throughholes 118 through which cool air passes; adeodorizer 114 mounted in thereceiving space 116, for removing the odor when the cool air passes therethrough; and acover 112 mounted at thecase 110, protecting thedeodorizer 114 and having a plurality of throughholes 120 through which the cool air passes. - The
deodorizer 114 has a rectangular parallelepiped shape with a certain thickness to be inserted in thereceiving space 116 of thecase 110, and a plurality of throughholes 124 through which the cool air passes are formed at thedeodorizer 114. - The operation of the deodorizer assembly according to the conventional art will now be described.
- The cool air which has circulated inside the refrigerating
chamber 14 is sucked through the throughholes 120 of thecover 112 and passes through the throughholes 124 formed at thedeodorizer 114, whereby the odor contained in the cool air is removed. Then, the deodorized cool air by thedeodorizer 114 is introduced to the cool-air suction passage 24 through the throughholes 118 of thecase 110. - However, the deodorizer assembly according to the conventional art has following problems.
- Because the odor is removed while the cool air passes through the through
holes 124 formed at thedeodorizer 114, if an area of the throughhole 124 is formed to be large, the odor of the cool air passing through the throughhole 124 is partially removed, which results in deterioration of deodorizing performance. Also, if the area of thethrough hole 124 is formed to be small, flow resistance of the air is generated, and thus the air cannot be smoothly sucked therein. - Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a deodorizer for a refrigerator capable of improving deodorizing performance by forming a mesh type deodorizer and thus maximizing a surface area coming in contact with cool air.
- To achieve these and other advantages and in accordance with the purpose of the present invention, as embodied and broadly described herein, there is provided a deodorizer for a refrigerator formed of a mesh type material having multiple pores through which the air in the refrigerator passes, and the material having multiple pleats so as to enlarge a surface area coming in contact with the air.
- The material is formed by covering a surface of a support member, which has fine multiple pores and is repeatedly folded, with carbon nano balls performing deodorizing operation.
- The support member is made of a fiber.
- The foregoing and other objects, features, aspects and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description of the present invention when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
- The accompanying drawings, which are included to provide a further understanding of the invention and are incorporated in and constitute a unit of this specification, illustrate embodiments of the invention and together with the description serve to explain the principles of the invention.

-
FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view of a deodorizer for a refrigerator according to the present invention, andFIG. 4 is a sectional view of a deodorizer for a refrigerator according to the present invention. - Referring to
FIG. 1 , the refrigerator according to the present invention includes a main body 10 having a receiving space therein; afreezing compartment 12 disposed at one of left and right sides of the main body 10, for storing frozen food items; a refrigeratingcompartment 14 separated from thefreezing compartment 12 by amullion wall 16, disposed at the other one of the left and right sides of the main body 10, for storing cooled food items; and adeodorizer assembly 32 installed at one side of the refrigeratingcompartment 14, for removing the odor generated from the food items stored in the refrigeratingcompartment 14. - A
heat exchanger 18 by which air is cooled while passing therethrough and a blowingfan 20 for forcedly sending the air cooled by theheat exchanger 18 are installed at a rear upper wall of the refrigeratingcompartment 12. - A cool-
air supply passage 22 through which the cool air is supplied from the blowingfan 20 into the refrigeratingcompartment 14 is formed at an upper side of themullion wall 16, and a cool-air suction passage 24 through which the cool air, which has completed its cooling operation while circulating inside the refrigeratingcompartment 14, is introduced to aheat exchanger 18 is formed at a lower side of themullion wall 16. - The refrigerating
compartment 14 is provided with a rear cool-air discharge duct 26 communicating with the cool-air supply passage 22 and installed at a rear wall of the refrigeratingcompartment 14, for discharging the cool air from the rear of the refrigeratingcompartment 14; a left cool-air discharge duct 28 installed at a left side of the refrigeratingcompartment 14, for discharging the cool air from the left side of the refrigeratingcompartment 14; and a right cool-air discharge duct 30 installed at the right side of the refrigeratingcompartment 14, for discharging the cool air from the right side of the refrigeratingcompartment 14. - Referring to
FIGS. 3 and 4 , thedeodorizer assembly 32 is installed on the cool-air suction passage 24 and circulates inside the refrigerating compartment, removing the odor contained in the cool air which has completed cooling operation for food items stored in the refrigerating compartment. Such a deodorizer assembly may be installed at any position through which the cool air passes besides the cool-air suction passage 24. - Such a
deodorizer assembly 32 includes adeodorizer 50 formed in a mesh type material having a plurality offine pores 52; acase 60 having a receiving space having thedeodorizer 50 therein, and mounted in the refrigerating compartment; and acover 70 detachably mounted to thecase 60, for preventing detachment of thedeodorizer 50 from thecase 60. - Here, the
case 60 and thecover 70 are provided with cool-air passages hinge portion 76 for rotatably connecting thecover 70 to thecase 60 is formed between thecase 60 and thecover 70, ahook 80 is formed at thecover 70, and ahook hole 84 by which thehook 80 is hooked is formed at thecase 60. In such a manner, thecover 70 is fixed to thecase 60. - As shown in
FIGS. 5 and 6 , thedeodorizer 50 includes asupport member 54 having finemultiple pores 52 and multiple pleats so as to maximize a surface area coming in contact with the cool air; andcarbon nano balls 56 applied on a surface of thesupport member 54 by a spraying method, for removing the odor. - Here, preferably, the
support member 54 is made of a fiber or a synthetic resin material. - The
carbon nano ball 56 is a hollow carbon structure with a size of 200˜500 nm and can effectively absorb bad smell components and an organic material in the air by having pores of a few nm and surface absorptive capacity. Thecarbon nano ball 56 has BET surface area (1450 m2/g) which is about twice as much as activated carbon, a mesopore area (880 m2/g) which is about six times as much as the activated carbon, and a pore volume (1.27 cm3/g) which is about twice as much as the activated carbon. In comparison with the activated carbon, the carbon nano ball has a malodorous-gas removing force which is eight times as much as ammonia, ten times as much as methyl mercaptan and twelve times as much as timethylamine. - The operation of the deodorizer assembly according to the present invention will now be described.
- A
mesh type deodorizer 50 having finemultiple pores 52 is stored in the receiving space of thecase 60, thecase 60 is covered with acover 70, and thehook 80 formed at thecover 70 is hooked by thehook hole 84 formed at thecase 60, thereby completing assembly of the deodorizer assembly. Then, the assembled deodorizer assembly is mounted at the cool-air suction passage 14. - When the refrigerator is driven, the blowing
fan 20 is rotated, supplying the cool air cooled by theheat exchanger 18 into the refrigeratingcompartment 14 through the cool-air supply passage 22. The supplied cool air performs cooling operation for various food items stored within the refrigeratingcompartment 14, and the cool air which has completed the cooling operation while circulating inside the refrigeratingcompartment 14 is re-circulated to theheat exchanger 18 through the cool-air suction passage 24. At this time, the cool air passes through the deodorizer assembly installed at the cool-air suction passage 24, thereby removing the odor contained in the cool air. - Here, because the
deodorizer 50 is formed in a mesh type material having finemultiple pores 52, the cool air can pass therethrough with little flow resistance, making the smooth flow. Because thedeodorizer 50 has a structure of being repetitively folded, a surface area coming in contact with the cool air can be maximized, thereby improving a deodorizing effect. - Effects of the deodorizer assembly for a refrigerator according to the present invention, constructed and operated as described above, will now be explained.
- The deodorizer according to the present invention may maximize deodorizing capacity because carbon nano balls cover its surface to perform deodorization.
- In addition, because the deodorizer is formed in a mesh type having fine multiple pores, flow resistance of the cool air is not generated, and thus the smooth flow of the cool air can be made.
- Also, the deodorizer has a structure of being repetitively folded, so that a surface area coming in contact with the cool air can be maximized, improving deodorizing performance.
- As the present invention may be embodied in several forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof, it should also be understood that the above-described embodiments are not limited by any of the details of the foregoing description, unless otherwise specified, but rather should be construed broadly within its spirit and scope as defined in the appended claims, and therefore all changes and modifications that fall within the metes and bounds of the claims, or equivalence of such metes and bounds are therefore intended to be embraced by the appended claims.
