Benefits of technology

The present invention provides an elastic member for vibration absorption and a refrigerator using the same with an improved structure for minimizing a strength coefficient. The elastic member includes a hollow shape seating part and a hollow shape base with different average radii, and a ring shape groove for absorbing vibration. An auxiliary supporter is added for preventing excessive transformation of the elastic member. The elastic member effectively decreases vibration and improves the transmissibility of vibration to a whole refrigerator.

Problems solved by technology

Therefore the frequency ratio thereof becomes smaller and the vibration transmissibility to the floor is increased, thereby resulting a problem of increasing vibration of the refrigerator, mover over a noise.

Embodiment Construction

[0034] Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers will be used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or like parts.

[0035] A refrigerator is an apparatus for storing, cooling, or freezing food freshly. The refrigerator includes a cooling chamber and a freezer thereof, a body having a door for opening and closing the cooling chamber and the freezer, and apparatuses such as a compressor for forming a cooling cycle.

[0036] The cooling cycle includes the steps of compressing a refrigerant by the compressor, condensing for discharging heat from the compressed refrigerant, expanding the refrigerant into a low pressure, the refrigerant passed through the condensing step, and evaporating the refrigerant by absorbing heat from an inside of the refrigerator.

[0037] The condensing step of the cooling cycle is carried out via the c...

Abstract

Disclosed is an elastic member for absorbing vibration with an improved vibration absorbing performance through an improved structure, the elastic member including an hollow shape seating part with a hollow shape, the hollow shape seating part seating the driving device such as a compressor thereon and having an axial direction supporting part supporting compressive load of the driving device, and a hollow shape base having an average radius different from that of the axial direction supporting part supporting the compressive load of the driving device.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This application claims the benefit of Korean Application No. P2003-80144, filed Nov. 13, 2003, which is hereby incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] 1. Field of the Invention [0003] The present invention relates to an elastic member for absorbing vibration and a refrigerator using the same, and more particularly, to an elastic member and a refrigerator using the same, the elastic member having an improved structure for preventing vibration from being transmitted to other parts or to a whole refrigerator, the vibration generated from a compressor of the refrigerator, so as to prevent a noise from being generated. [0004] 2. Discussion of the Related Art [0005] In general, a refrigerator is an apparatus for storing or cooling food freshly for a long-term period by maintaining an inner space thereof at a predetermined temperature. The inner space of the refrigerator is maintained under a...
