Provided is a refrigerator. The refrigerator is characterized by enabling at least a part of a refrigerator door to be selectively transparent by a user's operation, such that the user sees through an inside of the refrigerator while the refrigerator door is closed.

A refrigerator including a main body having a storeroom, an inner door rotatably coupled to the main body and having a door opening, an outer door rotatably arranged in front of the inner door to open or close the door opening, a dispenser including a water-intake space and an operation lever and configured to supply water to the water-intake space by manipulation of the operation lever, and an automatic water supplier including a water container installation space formed to have a water container mounted and a water level sensor configured to detect a water level of the water container, and configured to supply water into the water container to fill the water container with a certain amount of water. The water-intake space and the water container installation space may be arranged in the door opening of the inner door to be accessed while the inner door is closed.

A controller within a refrigeration application controls temperature and humidity within a compartment of the refrigeration application. The controller may begin cooling the compartment based on a measured temperature value for the compartment. The controller may delay a starting time of an evaporator fan within the compartment based at least in part on a measured humidity value for the compartment. The controller may also adjust an operating time of a condenser fan based at least in part on the measured humidity value.

A temperature-controlled transport container (10) has a cargo space (1) for accommodating temperature-sensitive goods and a refrigeration system. The refrigeration system comprises a closed air circuit (2), separate from the cargo space and located outside of and contiguous with at least one wall (9) of the cargo space. The refrigeration system further comprises at least one refrigeration unit (5) configured to cool air in the closed air circuit. The refrigeration system also comprises a pressurizing unit (8) for establishing a pressure difference between the closed air circuit and the ambient environment (20) outside of, but in a vicinity of, the temperature-controlled transport container.

An appliance includes a metallic liner and an outer metallic wrapper. An insulating cavity is defined between the metallic liner and outer metallic wrapper. The appliance further includes a pressure sensing device disposed within the cavity. The pressure sensing device is located to detect a pressure status and transmit the pressure status through at least one of the metallic liner and outer metallic wrapper.

Disclosed is a refrigerator. The refrigerator includes a body which includes a storage compartment, a door which opens and closes the storage compartment and includes a dispenser, a water tank case disposed in the door, a water tank separably mounted in the water tank case, a water level sensor configured to sense a water level inside the water tank when the water tank is mounted in the water tank case, and a water tank valve configured to guide water supplied from a water supply source to the dispenser or the water tank and to prevent water from being supplied to the water tank when the water level sensor senses that a certain amount of water is stored in the water tank.

In an entrance refrigerator, when a living organism such as a companion animal is detected in a storage compartment, a drain port provided at the bottom of the storage compartment is opened, such that air outside the storage compartment flows into the storage compartment through the drain port.

A refrigerator includes a cabinet defining a storage chamber, a drawer door, a rail that slidably couples the drawer door to the cabinet, a driving device provided in the door part, an elevation device provided in the drawer part to vertically ascend or descend at least a portion of the drawer part, and an elevation detection device. The drawer door includes a drawer part configured to be inserted into and withdrawn out of the storage chamber and a door part coupled to the drawer part and configured to open and close the storage chamber. The driving device includes a motor assembly, a screw assembly having a screw and a screw holder, and a lever that couples the screw holder to the elevation device and is configured to be rotated based on the movement of the screw holder along the screw.

A refrigerator including a main body having a storeroom, an inner door rotatably coupled to the main body and having a door opening, an outer door rotatably arranged in front of the inner door to open or close the door opening, a dispenser including a water-intake space and an operation lever and configured to supply water to the water-intake space by manipulation of the operation lever, and an automatic water supplier including a water container installation space formed to have a water container mounted and a water level sensor configured to detect a water level of the water container, and configured to supply water into the water container to fill the water container with a certain amount of water. The water-intake space and the water container installation space may be arranged in the door opening of the inner door to be accessed while the inner door is closed.
