Title: In-Won Lee: Innovator in Refrigeration Technology

Introduction

In-Won Lee is a prominent inventor based in Gyeonggi-do, South Korea. He has made significant contributions to the field of refrigeration technology, holding a total of 9 patents. His innovative designs focus on enhancing the efficiency and reliability of refrigeration systems.

Latest Patents

One of his latest patents is a concentrated cooling apparatus for refrigerators. This apparatus improves the reliability of infrared sensors by preventing moisture from condensing on their surfaces. The design includes a nozzle that is rotationally supported by a cold air guide path. This nozzle jets cold air intensively to high-temperature load regions when such loads are placed inside the chilling chamber. An infrared sensor is installed at the front of the nozzle, allowing it to sense the high-temperature load while rotating with the nozzle. Additionally, a moisture removing device jets cold air onto the infrared sensor's surface to eliminate any moisture that may condense.

Another notable patent involves an infrared sensor assembly and a refrigerator equipped with this sensor. This invention allows for precise detection of heat sources by narrowing the receiving angle of the infrared sensor. The assembly consists of an infrared sensor fixed to a supporting frame, a case housing the sensor with an infrared filter, and a receiving range limiting means that extends from the case to limit the range of infrared rays received. This innovation enhances the accuracy of heat source detection.
