図１０は、ハンドル４５のうち本体部４５２にカバー４５３が装着された状態の右側面図である。図１０に示すように、本体部４５２の窪み部４５９の上側及び下側の縁Ｅは、Ｒ面取りされ、曲面状に形成される。縁Ｅは徐変する。縁Ｅは後側に向かって曲率半径が大きくなる。 FIG. 10 is a right side view of the handle 45 in a state where the cover 453 is attached to the main body portion 452. As shown in FIG. 10, the upper and lower edges E of the recessed portion 459 of the main body portion 452 are R chamfered and formed into a curved surface. Edge E changes gradually. The radius of curvature of the edge E increases toward the rear side.

次に、カバー４５３を本体部４５２に装着する際の動作について説明する。カバー４５３は、図７に示すように、カバー４５３の内側面に形成される突起部４５ｕが本体部４５２の外側面に形成される溝４５ｇに係合されることにより、本体部４５２に係合される。 Next, the operation when the cover 453 is attached to the main body 452 will be described. As shown in FIG. 7, the cover 453 engages with the main body 452 by engaging the protrusion 45u formed on the inner surface of the cover 453 with the groove 45g formed on the outer surface of the main body 452. Will be done.

カバー４５３を本体部４５２に係合させるには、使用者は、カバー４５３の突起部４５ｕが本体部４５２の溝４５ｇの導入溝４５ｈに導入されるように、カバー４５３を本体部４５２に被せる。まず、使用者は、カバー４５３を本体部４５２に対して後方に移動させ、突起部４５ｕを導入溝４５ｈの後側の端部に移動させる。使用者は、カバー４５３を本体部４５２に対して下方に移動させ、突起部４５ｕを係合溝４５ｉに導入させる。使用者は、カバー４５３を本体部４５２に対してさらに下方に移動させ、突起部４５ｕを係合溝４５ｉの下側の端部に配置する。突起部４５ｕが係合溝４５ｉの下側の端部に配置されると、突起部４５ｕが係合溝４５ｉの縁に支持され、カバー４５３が本体部４５２に対して係合される。 To engage the cover 453 with the main body 452, the user covers the main body 452 with the cover 453 so that the protrusion 45u of the cover 453 is introduced into the introduction groove 45h of the groove 45g of the main body 452. First, the user moves the cover 453 rearward with respect to the main body portion 452, and moves the protrusion 45u to the rear end portion of the introduction groove 45h. The user moves the cover 453 downward with respect to the main body portion 452, and introduces the protrusion 45u into the engaging groove 45i. The user moves the cover 453 further downward with respect to the main body portion 452, and arranges the protrusion 45u at the lower end portion of the engaging groove 45i. When the protrusion 45u is arranged at the lower end of the engagement groove 45i, the protrusion 45u is supported by the edge of the engagement groove 45i and the cover 453 is engaged with the main body 452.

図６に示すように、カバー４５３は、本体部４５２に対して係合された状態において、側面部４５ｏの後側の端部が前板４３と当接する。カバー４５３は、上面部４５ｑのビス穴４５ｘに通されたビスＳが本体部４５２の雌ねじ部４５ｖの雌ねじ４５ｗに螺合されることにより、本体部４５２に螺着され装着される。 As shown in FIG. 6, in a state where the cover 453 is engaged with the main body portion 452, the rear end portion of the side surface portion 45o comes into contact with the front plate 43. The cover 453 is screwed and attached to the main body portion 452 by screwing the screw S passed through the screw hole 45x of the upper surface portion 45q into the female screw 45w of the female screw portion 45v of the main body portion 452.

本実施形態の冷蔵庫１によれば、カバー４５３は、側面部４５ｏと、前面部４５ｐと、上面部４５ｑと、下面部４５ｒと、が板状の形状を持つ。そのため、カバー４５３は、形状が単純であり、製造しやすく、製造コストを抑制できる。 According to the refrigerator 1 of the present embodiment, the cover 453 has a plate-like shape of a side surface portion 45o, a front surface portion 45p, an upper surface portion 45q, and a lower surface portion 45r. Therefore, the cover 453 has a simple shape, is easy to manufacture, and can suppress the manufacturing cost.

ハンドル４５は、前板４３の底面部４３５上に形成される。そのため、ハンドル４５は、使用者が視認しやすいため使用者が掴みやすく、利便性がよい。ハンドル４５は、筐体１０に対して前板４３より突出することが抑制され、美観がよい。 The handle 45 is formed on the bottom surface portion 435 of the front plate 43. Therefore, the handle 45 is easy for the user to visually recognize, so that the user can easily grasp the handle 45, which is convenient. The handle 45 is suppressed from protruding from the front plate 43 with respect to the housing 10, and is aesthetically pleasing.

前板４３は、底面部４３５の曲面形状の曲率半径が、正面部４３３の曲面形状の曲率半径より小さい。そのため、ハンドル４５が、底面部４３５に安定して固定される。 The radius of curvature of the curved surface of the bottom surface 435 of the front plate 43 is smaller than the radius of curvature of the curved surface of the front surface 433. Therefore, the handle 45 is stably fixed to the bottom surface portion 435.

ハンドル４５は、幅方向の寸法が底面部４３５の幅方向の寸法より小さい。そのため、ハンドル４５は、正面部４３３及び傾斜部４３４から離間して底面部４３５に配置されることが可能である。これにより、使用者がハンドル４５の右側に形成される窪み部４５９に手をかけるときに、正面部４３３及び傾斜部４３４が邪魔にならず、冷蔵室扉１１Ａが開閉しやすい。 The width direction of the handle 45 is smaller than the width direction of the bottom surface portion 435. Therefore, the handle 45 can be arranged on the bottom surface portion 435 away from the front surface portion 433 and the inclined portion 434. As a result, when the user touches the recessed portion 459 formed on the right side of the handle 45, the front portion 433 and the inclined portion 434 do not get in the way, and the refrigerator compartment door 11A can be easily opened and closed.

前板４３は、傾斜部４３４を持つ。そのため、前板４３が正面部４３３から底面部４３５にかけて徐々に後側に凹むため、前板４３に段差が生じず、前板４３の美観を損なわない。 The front plate 43 has an inclined portion 434. Therefore, since the front plate 43 is gradually recessed to the rear side from the front portion 433 to the bottom portion 435, no step is generated in the front plate 43 and the aesthetic appearance of the front plate 43 is not impaired.

傾斜部４３４は、幅方向の寸法が４０ｍｍ以上１００ｍｍ以下であると、傾斜部４３４が目立たず、前板４３に段差が生じているように見えづらく、前板４３の美観を損なわない。 When the dimension of the inclined portion 434 in the width direction is 40 mm or more and 100 mm or less, the inclined portion 434 is inconspicuous and it is difficult to see that the front plate 43 has a step, and the appearance of the front plate 43 is not impaired.

カバー４５３の前面部４５ｐは、前側に凸の曲面状に形成される。そのため、使用者が１１Ａを開いたときにハンドル４５が壁等に衝突した場合に、ハンドル４５の角部が壁等に当たることが防止され、壁等が傷つきづらい。 The front surface portion 45p of the cover 453 is formed in a curved surface shape that is convex to the front side. Therefore, when the handle 45 collides with a wall or the like when the user opens 11A, the corner portion of the handle 45 is prevented from hitting the wall or the like, and the wall or the like is not easily damaged.

前面部４５ｐが前側へ突出する寸法は、２０ｍｍ以上４０ｍｍ以下であると、ハンドル４５が壁等に衝突した場合に、ハンドル４５の角部が壁等に当たることが防止されやすく、前面部４５ｐの突出が目立たない。 If the dimension of the front portion 45p protruding forward is 20 mm or more and 40 mm or less, it is easy to prevent the corner portion of the handle 45 from hitting the wall or the like when the handle 45 collides with the wall or the like, and the front portion 45p protrudes. Is inconspicuous.

側面視でカバー４５３の前面部４５ｐが筐体１０から突出する寸法が、前板４３が前記筐体１０から突出する寸法より小さい。そのため、ハンドル４５が、前板４３から突出して見えることが防止され、前板４３の美観を損なわない。 The dimension in which the front surface portion 45p of the cover 453 protrudes from the housing 10 in the side view is smaller than the dimension in which the front plate 43 protrudes from the housing 10. Therefore, the handle 45 is prevented from being seen protruding from the front plate 43, and the appearance of the front plate 43 is not spoiled.

冷蔵庫１は、閉状態における扉が前記筐体１０から突出する寸法が一定である。そのため、冷蔵庫１は、外観に見える段差が抑制され、美観が良い。 The refrigerator 1 has a constant dimension in which the door in the closed state protrudes from the housing 10. Therefore, the refrigerator 1 has a good appearance because the level difference that can be seen in the appearance is suppressed.

窪み部４５９は、本体部４５２の内側に窪み、前板４３の正面Ｆに対向し、開口４５ｊを有する。窪み部４５９は、内周面が、前板４３の正面Ｆから離間するにしたがって窪み部４５９の開口４５ｊの中心Ｏに向かって傾斜する。そのため、窪み部４５９に指をかけた使用者が、不快を感じにくい。 The recessed portion 459 is recessed inside the main body portion 452, faces the front surface F of the front plate 43, and has an opening 45j. The inner peripheral surface of the recessed portion 459 is inclined toward the center O of the opening 45j of the recessed portion 459 as the inner peripheral surface is separated from the front surface F of the front plate 43. Therefore, the user who puts his finger on the recessed portion 459 is less likely to feel uncomfortable.

窪み部４５９の縁Ｅは、前板４３の正面Ｆに向かって曲率半径が大きくなるように徐変する。そのため、ハンドル４５の美観が良い。使用者の手が窪み部４５９の縁Ｅに当たっても、使用者が痛みを感じにくい。 The edge E of the recessed portion 459 gradually changes toward the front surface F of the front plate 43 so that the radius of curvature increases. Therefore, the aesthetic appearance of the handle 45 is good. Even if the user's hand hits the edge E of the recessed portion 459, the user is less likely to feel pain.

カバー４５３の側面部４５ｏは、突出部４５ｚを持つ。そのため、使用者が冷蔵室扉１１Ａを開けるときに窪み部４５９に手をかけずにハンドル４５を引いたときに、手がハンドル４５に対してすべった場合でも、手が突出部４５ｚに引っかかる。手が突出部４５ｚに引っかかることで、手がハンドル４５から離れることが防止され、使用者が冷蔵室扉１１Ａを開けやすい。 The side surface portion 45o of the cover 453 has a protruding portion 45z. Therefore, when the user pulls the handle 45 without touching the recessed portion 459 when opening the refrigerator compartment door 11A, even if the hand slips on the handle 45, the hand is caught by the protruding portion 45z. By catching the hand on the protrusion 45z, the hand is prevented from being separated from the handle 45, and the user can easily open the refrigerator compartment door 11A.

突出部４５ｚには、曲面部Ｒが形成される。そのため、手が突出部４５ｚに引っかかった場合に、使用者が痛みを感じにくい。曲面部Ｒの曲率半径がＲ０．５以上Ｒ３以下であると、手が曲面部Ｒに引っかかりやすく、曲面部Ｒが目立たない。 A curved surface portion R is formed on the protruding portion 45z. Therefore, when the hand is caught in the protrusion 45z, the user is less likely to feel pain. When the radius of curvature of the curved surface portion R is R0.5 or more and R3 or less, the hand is likely to be caught by the curved surface portion R, and the curved surface portion R is inconspicuous.

正面部４３３側の曲率半径ＲＲ１よりも底面部４３５側の曲率半径ＲＬ１が小さく形成されるため、ハンドル４５を前板４３の第２の端部Ｅ２に近づけて取り付けることでき、美観がよい。 Since the radius of curvature RL1 on the bottom surface 435 side is formed smaller than the radius of curvature RR1 on the front surface 433 side, the handle 45 can be attached closer to the second end E2 of the front plate 43, which is aesthetically pleasing.
