A glass door for a refrigerating unit and to such refrigerating unit, wherein the glass door includes a glass pane, a handle assembly including a transparent base part bonded at an adhesion surface to an outer glass surface of the glass pane, and a handle part made in a transparent material, preferably Polymethylmethacrylat (PMMA). The handle assembly further includes a mounting connection for mounting the handle part to the base part, wherein the mounting connection is provided by the one or more protrusions of the handle part and by one or more recess(es) in the base part or one or more recess(es) provided between the base part and the outer glass surface.

A refrigerator includes a transparent panel assembly. The transparent panel assembly includes a front panel defining at least a part of a front appearance of a refrigerator door and made of a glass material, a rear panel defining at least a part of a rear appearance of the refrigerator door and made of a transparent material, and an intermediate member connected between the front panel and the rear panel and made of a transparent plastic member. The intermediate member includes an edge portion having both ends connected to a screening area formed at peripheries of the front panel and the rear panel, and a partition portion formed to cross an inner surface of the edge portion to partition a gap between the front panel and the rear panel to thereby form a sealed insulation layer.

A vacuum adiabatic body and a refrigerator are provided. The vacuum adiabatic body includes a support that maintains a vacuum space between a first plate and a second plate, and a heat resistance unit comprising at least one radiation resistance sheet that blocks radiation heat transfer in the vacuum space so as to reduce heat transfer between the first plate and the second plate. The support includes two support plates, and the at least one radiation resistance sheet is supported by at least one support protrusion provided on a bar, which couples the two support plates to each other, to maintain an interval between the first plate and the second plate.

A refrigerator includes a cabinet having a storage space, a hinge bracket configured to be installed on an upper wall of the cabinet and having a hinge shaft, a door configured to be connected to the hinge shaft and to open and close the storage space while rotating, and a hinge cover configured to be installed on the upper wall of the cabinet and to cover the hinge bracket, in which the hinge cover includes a first mounting part and a second mounting part disposed to be spaced apart in a horizontal direction, a bracket cover detachably mounted on one mounting part of the first mounting part and the second mounting part disposed at a position corresponding to the hinge bracket and configured to cover the hinge bracket, and a shielding member detachably mounted on another mounting part of the first mounting part and the second mounting part.

A refrigerator according to the present embodiment comprises: a cabinet comprising a storage chamber; and a door for opening and closing the storage chamber. The door comprises: a main door comprising an opening and a door storage unit; a sub-door that opens and closes the opening and can rotate about a hinge with respect to the main door; a first camera and a second camera that are provided spaced apart from each other in the sub-door, and capture images of the door storage unit in a state where the sub-door is open; a marker provided on the main door and image-captured by the first camera; and a display unit for displaying result images including at least a portion of images captured by the first and second cameras.

A sliding and connecting device configured to slidably secure a cabinet panel to an appliance door includes a rail element and a sliding element. The sliding element has a first flat portion and a second flat portion. The second flat portion has a first cross-sectional hollow profile and a second cross-sectional hollow profile intersecting the first cross-sectional hollow profile. Each of the first and second cross-sectional hollow profiles are configured to engage and slide along a matching cross-sectional profile formed on the rail element.
