An insulated structure includes a wrapper that defines a first aperture. A liner defines a second aperture and is coupled to the wrapper. A negative pressure is maintained between the wrapper and the liner. A drainage assembly extends between the liner and the wrapper and is disposed within the first aperture and the second aperture. The drainage assembly includes a flexible body that has a plurality of flexures, first and second surfaces, and an opening that is defined between the first and second surfaces. The flexible body has at least one notch that is defined on the first surface that extends from a portion of the opening. A drainage tube extends through the opening that is defined by the flexible body and is operably coupled to the flexible body. The drainage tube includes at least one flange disposed within the at least one notch of the flexible body.

A drainage system comprising a first bracket having a horizontal structure and one or more vertical structures, a second bracket having a horizontal structure and one or more vertical structures and a drain pan having a plurality of locking mechanisms, each configured to interlock with one of the vertical structures of the first bracket or the second bracket.

A heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) unit includes a drain pan configured to collect condensate generated by the HVAC unit. The HVAC unit also includes a drain spout having a rigid outlet port coupled to the drain pan and a flexible conduit coupled to the rigid outlet port. The drain spout is adjustable between a first configuration configured to discharge the condensate from the HVAC unit via a first opening of the HVAC unit and a second configuration configured to discharge the condensate from the HVAC unit via a second opening of the HVAC unit.

A drain pan utilizing an open front and a trench includes a bottom pan member, the trench, a drain hole, and a trench cover. The bottom pan member includes the open front. The trench is positioned below the bottom pan member adjacent the open front of the bottom pan member of the drain pan. The trench is configured to capture fluid flowing onto the bottom pan member of the drain pan and before the fluid flows out of the open front. The drain hole is in communication with the trench. The drain hole is configured to evacuate any fluid from the bottom pan member that flows into the trench. The trench cover is configured for providing a flat trench surface over the trench. The trench cover includes perforations to allow fluid to flow into the trench from the bottom pan member of the drain pan.

A refrigerator includes a body including at least one storage space having a front opening and formed with a cooling module accommodating space, a door configured to open and close the storage space, and a cooling module accommodated in the cooling module accommodating space. The cooling module may include a heat radiating part, a heat absorption part, and a cooling module barrier configured to separate the heat radiating part and the heat absorption part. The heat radiating part may include a compressor that compresses refrigerant, a condenser that condenses the refrigerant compressed by the compressor and a condenser fan that blows outdoor air to the condenser, the heat radiating part being disposed eccentrically on one of lateral sides of the cooling module. The heat absorption part including an evaporator that evaporates refrigerant and an evaporator fan that circulates cold air of the storage space to the evaporator and the storage space, the heat absorption being disposed at a lateral side of the heat radiating part. Therefore, it is possible to enable easy connection between the compressor and the evaporator and facilitate each assembly and services such as repair.

The present invention provides a refrigerator, a duct assembly and a duct fixture. The duct fixture includes a fixing seat having a through hole, a fixing disk, a limiting block disposed on a side of the fixing disk adjacent to a target mounting surface, and a positioning protrusion disposed on the fixing disk, an outer shape of the limiting block matches a mounting hole on the target mounting surface, a limiting groove for receiving the target mounting surface is formed between the limiting block and the fixing disk, and the positioning protrusion is disposed angularly with the limiting block around the central axis of the through hole. When the limiting block rotates to a staggered position relative to the mounting hole, the positioning protrusion enters the mounting hole.

Arrangement for accumulation and evacuation of water such as defrosting and condensation water from refrigeration units, the system including a piping arrangement with a vertical pipe section extending from a water evacuation unit provided in conjunction with the respective refrigeration unit; discharge valves, one for each unit; one or more liquid reservoir for each unit; one or more vacuum pumps; air inlet nozzles; a control unit; one or more level switches and air conduit inlet opening for each vertical pipe. Each of the water evacuation units includes a docking station and a water collection tray preferably to be slideably provided within the docking station, whereby each unit is custom made to fit between the refrigeration unit and floor where the refrigeration units are placed.

A pipe assembly, installed in a refrigerator, to function as a condensate line and comprises: a first pipe extending from an evaporator of the refrigerator and inclined downward to drain water; and a second pipe connected to a downstream end of the first pipe to receive the water, the second pipe extending from the first pipe so as to be inclined downward at a steeper slope than the first pipe. The first pipe includes a first connection portion fastened to the second pipe and a water guide portion extending further downward from the first connection portion.

A refrigerating appliance, or household refrigerating appliance, includes a refrigerated goods container and a machine compartment having a wall facing the goods container, an insulating material region between the goods container and the machine compartment wall, and a water outlet arrangement conducting condensate from the goods container through the insulating material region and machine compartment wall into an evaporation container in the machine compartment. The water outlet arrangement has a trough-shaped wall region of the goods container oriented towards the machine compartment wall and extending funnel-like to a drip edge. A tube facility extends from the wall region through the insulating material region and an opening in the machine compartment wall into the machine compartment. A positioning device mutually positions the wall region and tube facility, securing the drip edge radially in the tube facility and circumferentially spaced from an inner wall of the tube facility.

A tool configured to assemble a drain to a household appliance wall, the drain formed by an interior tube and an exterior tube, the tool including a jaw, a housing, a spring and a guide member. The jaw is formed by a pair of arms and configured to move between a closed position, in which the jaw is configured to be inserted through an aperture formed by the household appliance wall, and an open position in which the jaw is configured to engage the interior tube. The housing houses the jaw and the spring is fixed to the housing and configured to bias the jaw towards the closed position. And the pair of arms are configured to move from the closed position to the open position as the jaw is inserted through the aperture.
