摘要： A refrigerated merchandising cabinet comprises an insulated casing, an interior of which forms a product display chamber. Refrigeration apparatus for generating and delivering a cold airstream through the product display chamber to cool the product display chamber is mounted on top of the casing. Access doors are mounted at a front of the casing to provide access to the product display chamber. Each access door is mounted on the casing by means of an inner frame forming an integral part of the casing and defining an access opening at the front of the casing and a complementary outer frame which is demountably engaged with the inner frame. Each door is hingedly mounted on the outer frame.

摘要： A refrigerator includes a vacuum-insulated cabinet structure enclosing an insulating cavity and including an outer wrapper having a first side wall defining a perimeter, an outer frame portion defined radially inward of the perimeter, and an inner area surrounded and supported by the outer frame portion. The inner area initially defines a first planar level with at least a portion of the outer frame portion extending to a second planar level parallel to and spaced apart from the first planar level in an axially outward direction. The insulating cavity is sealed and has a vacuum drawn therefrom with the outer frame portion deformed such that the inner area is moved axially inward away from the second planar level under a force of the vacuum within the insulating cavity with at least the portion of the outer frame portion remaining at the second planar level.

摘要： A connector assembly includes a base plate that defines a fill opening and an aperture. A fill tube is coupled to a first side of the base plate. The fill tube is aligned with the fill opening. A radial flange is coupled to a second side of the base plate. The radial flange extends around the fill opening. A toggle magnet is coupled to the first side of the base plate proximate to the aperture. The toggle magnet is operable between an activated state and a deactivated state.

摘要： Air permeable core material is vacuum sealed in enveloping member. Further, core material is formed of at least two layers of heat insulating core materials having different heat conductivities. Further, at least two of the at least two layers of heat insulating core materials which form core material are formed of materials having change gradients in the heat conductivity changed in accordance with temperature, and the change gradients in the heat conductivity of the heat insulating core materials intersect with each other. Since two layers of heat insulating core materials having different heat conductivities are provided in a vacuum state, a heat insulating property becomes higher compared to a conventional configuration in which a single layer of the heat insulating core material formed of fiber material such as glass wool or rock wool is vacuum sealed and the high heat insulating property is shown in a wide temperature range.

摘要： An insulated cabinet structure includes an inner liner having a plurality of walls defining a refrigerator compartment. An external wrapper includes a plurality of walls defining a refrigerator compartment receiving area. An insulation gap is formed between the walls of the inner liner and the walls of the external wrapper when the inner liner is received in the external wrapper. An insulation member is positioned within the insulation gap and includes a renewable resource component comprising about 10% to about 90% by weight of the insulation member.

摘要： A method for insulating thermal devices with a composite insulation system including an evacuated powder and a plastic foam. A formed plastic part divides the insulation space between the outer case and inner liner into sectors. Some sectors are filled with a finely divided powder, the remaining sectors are filled with foam, for example, polyurethane. A vacuum is applied to the powder filled sectors while the foam is expanding and curing.

摘要： A thermal insulating unit includes a sealed inner gas-permeable bag containing an insulating micropowdered material, such inner bag having two major surfaces parallel to each other. Two multilayer sheets are respectively disposed on opposite sides of the gas-permeable bag and overlap the same, each sheet being formed of an innermost layer and an outermost layer of a thermoweldable plastic and an intermediate metal layer. The metal layer has smaller dimensions than the plastic layers such that each metal layer wholly covers only its corresponding inner-bag major surface. The four plastic layers are peripherally heat-sealed, the resulting outer bag having been evacuated. A device is provided on each metal layer for fixing such layer to and positioning it with respect to its respective two plastic layers.

摘要： An appliance cabinet includes a structural envelope having an exterior surface and an interior surface that defines an insulating cavity, wherein the insulating cavity defines an at least partial vacuum. A plurality of silica-based agglomerates are disposed within the insulating cavity, wherein each agglomerate of the plurality of silica-based agglomerates includes silica-based powder insulation material that is water-densified and is at least substantially free of a material binder. A secondary insulation material is disposed within interstitial spaces defined between the plurality of silica-based agglomerates, wherein the plurality of silica-based agglomerates defines an interior structure that resists inward compressive forces exerted as a result of the at least partial vacuum defined within the insulating cavity.
