Countries producing popular refrigerators and the history of the refrigerator

The understanding that food is better preserved at low temperatures gave impetus to the invention of the refrigerator. This became clear even before electricity was invented. Until the middle of the last century, many residents of small settlements and communities left food for storage in public refrigeration complexes simply because it was cheaper. To buy a unit even in Europe was a rather expensive pleasure and a luxury item.

Who and when invented the refrigerator

The first prerequisite for the appearance of refrigerators was the experiments of artificial cooling, demonstrated by the scientist William Cullen at the University of Glasgow. To lower the temperature, he used the effect of cooling the liquid by intensive evaporation. Normal water was replaced with diethyl ether in a sealed container. Having evacuated the air, he created reduced pressure. As a result, the alcohol boiled at ambient temperature, absorbing heat from the outside and cooling the evaporation surface.

After that, an absorption machine was created, which was supposed to produce ice from water. The installation was introduced by an engineer from France Ferdinand Carré in 1860. But she could not cool the air masses inside the confined space, as today's refrigerators do.

Carre Machine

After there was a German car refrigerator Karl von Linde in 1874. This is the man who invented the refrigerator we know. He made it possible to cool air and liquids in confined spaces. This technology gave impetus to the production of household refrigerators in the 20th century. By the thirties, she was inspired in the United States and used everywhere.

The first prototype of a modern refrigerator was created in 1895 by a physicist from France, Marcel Odifren. However, the matter did not reach the working model, unlike the attempts of the Americans in 1910.

Model Ofifren

It was a refrigerator performing its main function, but it was little more than a modern version of this device. Of course, he also had drawbacks, which is why his serial production did not happen. But a year later, in the same place in America, the manufacturer General Electric found a solution and released a number of household refrigerators. And, remembering the merit of the French discoverer, the company called it "Odifren." Its release lasted as long as 17 years, than there were reasons: simple maintenance and the absence of complex parts.

Manufacturers

Among many brands of refrigeration units, only a few are especially known on the world stage. For example, Beko brand refrigerators are manufacturer Arcelic Turkey or Nord, which is a Ukrainian brand of large household appliances. Production at the company began in 1963, but Nord was not released to the public until 1990. Today, their refrigeration appliances are able to consume energy at a minimum level, belonging to the class A +.

Another manufacturer is the DON plant, located in the Tula region. Here manufactured refrigerators go through a full cycle. They are made reliable by European-made raw materials and high-class equipment from Italy, Germany, Korea and Turkey at the stage of creation and assembly. New technologies allow us to comply with the environmental safety requirements of DON refrigerators.

What refrigerators are made in Russia

Choosing a home appliance, especially one that has been bought for more than 1 year, domestic consumers are increasingly mentioning “Chinese” goods. It is believed that they will not last long. But in fact, many of them are now doing in the Russian Federation.

For example, since 2006, 88 models of Electrolux refrigerators have been made in the Ruzsky district of the Moscow region. In the city of Strelna, the Leningrad Region does not just gather, but goes through the complete production cycle of Bosch and Siemens. And this product is supplied not only to the Russian market, but also to European countries.
