Abstract:
A structural cabinet for an appliance includes an outer wrapper and an inner liner defining an insulating cavity therebetween. A first insulating structural layer is disposed against an inner surface of the outer wrapper. A second insulating structural layer is disposed against the inward surface of the inner liner. A core insulating material is disposed between the first and second structural insulating layers, wherein the first and second insulating structural layers reinforce the outer wrapper and inner liner, respectively, and resist deflection when the core insulating material is in a compressed state within the insulating cavity.

Claim (Index 73):
A method for forming a structural cabinet for an appliance, the method comprising steps of:\n disposing an adhesive onto an inner surface of an outer wrapper and an inward surface of an inner liner; disposing a plurality of glass spheres onto the adhesive to define first and second layers of glass spheres, respectively; coupling the inner liner and the outer wrapper together to define an insulating cavity therein and also defining an interstitial insulating space between the first and second layers of glass spheres; disposing a core insulating material within the interstitial insulating space; expressing gas from the insulating cavity to define an at least partial vacuum therein; and sealing the inner liner and the outer wrapper to define a vacuum insulated structure.
