Abstract

The present invention provides a refrigerator which enable to make effective arrangement elements in a machine room on a top of the refrigerator, and to absorb and cut off noise and vibration from the elements enabling quiet operation. To do this, the refrigerator includes a body formed to have a freezing chamber and a refrigerating chamber, a machine room formed on a top of the body to have a front region and a rear region, and a vibration isolating member for attenuating vibration in the machine room.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A refrigerator comprising:
 a body formed to have a freezing chamber and a refrigerating chamber;   a machine room provided on a top of the body to have a front region and a rear region; and   a vibration isolating member for attenuating vibration in the machine room.   
     
     
         2 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the vibration isolating member includes;
 a fastening screw for fastening to a floor of the machine room through a fastening bracket at a cooling fan in the machine room, and   an elastic body coupled to the fastening screw and positioned disposed between the floor and the fastening screw.   
     
     
         3 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the vibration isolating member further includes;
 a valve vibration isolating member mounted for attenuating vibration of a refrigerating three way valve adjacent to the cooling fan.   
     
     
         4 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the refrigerating three way valve is positioned on an upper side of the valve vibration isolating member. 
     
     
         5 . A refrigerator comprising:
 a body formed to have a freezing chamber and a refrigerating chamber;   a machine room provided on a top of the body to have a front region and a rear region;   a vibration isolating member for attenuating vibration in the machine room; and   a blocking member for attenuating noise in the machine room.   
     
     
         6 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the blocking member includes;
 a vibration attenuating portion for attenuating the vibration, and   a noise attenuating portion for attenuating the noise.   
     
     
         7 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein the vibration attenuating portion is positioned on a lower side of the blocking member in close contact with a floor of the machine room. 
     
     
         8 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein the noise attenuating portion has pass through holes for passing through of air from a cooling fan. 
     
     
         9 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein the blocking member includes;
 a refractive plate for refracting the noise from a compressor, and   a sound absorbing plate for absorbing and insulating the noise from the compressor.   
     
     
         10 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the refractive plate blocks low frequency noise from the compressor. 
     
     
         11 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the sound absorbing plate blocks high frequency noise from the compressor. 
     
     
         12 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the blocking member is arranged between the front region and the rear region. 
     
     
         13 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the blocking member is arranged between the cooling fan and the compressor in the machine room. 
     
     
         14 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the blocking member is arranged on a lower side of the compressor ,and is extended in a transverse direction. 
     
     
         15 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the blocking member is mounted to surround on the lower side of the compressor. 
     
     
         16 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the vibration isolating member is mounted to the cooling fan and the compressor, respectively. 
     
     
         17 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the machine room has a cover member mounted on a top, and the cover member has holes for enabling an air flow to an inside of the machine room. 
     
     
         18 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the front region has the compressor mounted thereto. 
     
     
         19 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the rear region has a condenser and the cooling fan mounted thereto. 
     
     
         20 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the front region has a first guide member for guiding an air flow toward the compressor from the cooling fan. 
     
     
         21 . The refrigerator as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the rear region has a second guide member for guiding an air flow toward the condenser.
