Description
Refrigerator with a refrigerator body Technical Field The present disclosure relates to a refrigerator. Background The refrigerator has a storage chamber such as a freezing chamber and a refrigerating chamber, and the storage chamber is connected to a cooler chamber provided with a cooler through an air path. In a refrigerator, a fin-tube type cooler is generally used, in which fins for improving cooling capacity are arranged on a refrigerant tube. The air cooled by the cooler is blown out into the storage chamber by the blower through the air passage, and the air in the storage chamber is sucked back into the cooler chamber through the other air passage. The air around the cooler is cooled by the cooler. At this time, as the temperature of the air decreases, the humidity increases, and moisture in the air frosts and adheres to the surface of the cooler. Thereby, moisture in the air is removed, and the air is dehumidified. Thus, in the cooler, cooling and dehumidification are performed simultaneously. The fin-tube type cooler has a refrigerant tube through which a refrigerant flows, and the refrigerant tube exchanges heat with ambient air. Fins for increasing the heat conduction area are installed on the refrigerant tube, and the cooling capacity is improved. The refrigerant tube has a meandering shape, and includes a linear portion and a bent portion bent in a U-shape. In the straight portion, thin-walled tubes are used to improve cooling capacity, and fins are arranged at a certain arrangement density. On the other hand, a thick-walled tube is used for the bent portion, and the strength of the entire refrigerant tube is ensured at the bent portion. The side plate supports an end of the bent portion near the linear portion. The cooling capacity is low because the refrigerant tube has no fin at the bent portion on the outer side than the side plate. The air in the refrigerating compartment contains outside air and water vapor emitted from food. Therefore, when the air in the refrigerator compartment passes through the cooler in a state of insufficient cooling and dehumidification by passing through the outside of the side plate, the air flowing from the refrigerator having a lower temperature into the cooler compartment is cooled to a dew point or lower around the blower. Then, condensation occurs around the blower, and further, the condensed water freezes at the operation portion of the blower. As a result, the blower may no longer operate normally. In the refrigerator disclosed in patent document 1, in order to solve the above-mentioned concern, an air barrier is attached to an upper portion of the gap outside the side plate so as to suppress the flow of air returning from the refrigerating chamber into the gap outside the side plate. Prior art literature Patent literature Patent document 1 Japanese patent application No. 4930721 Disclosure of Invention Problems to be solved by the invention However, there is still a gap between the baffle plate and the wall of the cooler compartment and return air from the fresh food compartment may still flow further outboard than the side panels.
