    摘要: A vacuum insulated appliance includes a cabinet with an outer wrapper and an inner liner coupled to the outer wrapper. A vacuum insulated cavity is defined between the outer wrapper and the inner liner. A trim breaker is coupled to the outer wrapper and the inner liner and seals the vacuum insulated cavity. An evacuation port is defined by the outer wrapper. An insulation powder is disposed in the vacuum insulated cavity. An open-cell foam is coupled to at least one of an inner surface of the outer wrapper and an inner surface of the inner liner. The open-cell foam defines a first plurality of pores that define a first plurality of airflow paths in fluid communication with the vacuum insulated cavity and the evacuation port for evacuating air from the vacuum insulated cavity, through the first plurality of airflow paths, and through the evacuation port.

    摘要: An appliance includes an outer wrapper and an inner liner placed within the outer wrapper and spaced apart from the outer wrapper to define an insulating space. A trim breaker extends between the inner liner and the outer wrapper to define a structural cabinet. The trim breaker defines a front face of the cabinet. The trim breaker defines a gas conduit disposed within a wall of the structural cabinet proximate the insulating space. The gas conduit is adapted to define selective communication between the insulating space and an exterior of the structural cabinet. An insulating material is disposed within the insulating space, wherein the gas conduit is substantially free of the insulating material.

    摘要: A vacuum insulated door for an appliance includes an outer wrapper that defines an evacuation port. An inner liner is coupled to the outer wrapper defining an insulating cavity therebetween. A base is coupled to the outer wrapper adjacent to the evacuation port. A servicing tube has a connecting end and a servicing end. The servicing tube is in fluid communication with the insulating cavity via the evacuation port. The connecting end is coupled to the base. A handle has first and second ends coupled to the outer wrapper and a center portion therebetween spaced-apart from the outer wrapper. The first end is coupled to the outer wrapper proximate the evacuation port. The servicing tube extends along an inner surface of the handle.

    摘要: A laundry treating appliance includes a cabinet defining a cabinet interior, a drum, rotatable within the cabinet interior, at least partially defines a treating chamber for holding laundry items for treatment. A lid provides access to the cabinet interior. A user interface is carried by the cabinet and includes a console having a first input opening, a controller including a printed circuit board (PCB) located behind the console, and a rotary knob assembly and push button assembly located above the console and operably coupled to the PCB. A liquid seal is formed between the console and the rotary knob assembly and the console and the push button.

    摘要: A system for forming insulation packages includes a vessel configured to hold a slurry that includes a liquid and an insulation material. A supply conduit is coupled at a first end with the vessel and has a second end configured to couple with an envelope for selectively supplying the slurry from the vessel to an interior cavity of the envelope. A chamber is configured to selectively maintain a pressure within the chamber at a reduced pressure less than ambient pressure. The second end of the supply conduit is disposed within the chamber. A mold includes an inner mold liner that at least partially defines a cavity for retaining the envelope therein and an outer mold shell that at least partially surrounds the inner mold liner. The inner mold liner and the outer mold shell are gas-permeable and permeable to the liquid.
