A refrigerator includes a noise reduction device and a machine room that accommodates a condenser and a compressor. The noise reduction device includes a sensing unit configured to measure noise generated from the machine room of the refrigerator and a generating unit configured to output a sound signal having a frequency canceling or reducing the noise. The machine room is defined by a case that has a communication portion configured to communicate a fluid between an inside of the case and an outside of the case to thereby exchange heat between the fluid and the condenser and between the fluid and the compressor.

This invention describes a device that is able to promote the rapid cooling/freezing of liquids and pasty and solid foods in general, where it is formed by several components that enable the action of cooling/freezing. Additionally, this invention describes that this device can incorporate the additional function of a refrigerator, through direct coupling of a thermal box to the cooling system of the device.

A cable harness supplies a plurality of electric devices which are in a distributed arrangement in a device housing. A first connection point of the cable harness has a plug connector on the side of the cable harness. At least the electric devices which are supplied via the first connection point are connected to the first plug connector on the side of the cable harness by way of a device-side plug connector and an adapter that is plugged together with both plug connectors.

A refrigerator according to the present invention comprises: a storage chamber for storing articles; a camera for photographing the inner space of the storage chamber; a control part which visually recognizes a first article image captured by the camera so as to acquire article information corresponding to the first article image; a memory for storing the acquired article information so as to generate an article image history; and a display electrically connected to the control part. Further, the control part may: acquire, through the camera, a second article image in which an article is partially hidden by any other article; detect, from the second article image, a partial article image of the article partially hidden by the other article; and identify an article matching the partial article image on the basis of the article image history. Further, the control part may perform control such that the corresponding partial article image is displayed on the display in association with the article information identified from the article image history. The present invention provides a refrigerator to which AI (Artificial Intelligence) is applied.
