A shelf for a household refrigeration appliance has a shelf plate, which has a first plate element and a separate second plate element, which is arranged next to the first plate element in a use position in the widthwise direction of the shelf to form the a continuous shelf plate and which can be removed non-destructively to make the shelf plate smaller. The shelf further has a carrier frame, which only borders the edges of the shelf plate. The carrier frame is only configured around three sides of the shelf plate and has a rear frame element and two opposing side frame elements.

A refrigerator shelf includes a frame having laterally spaced first and second side members, each with respective first ends. A first substrate is received between the first and second side members, defines a first edge, and is directly supported on the first and second side members so as to be moveable along the first and second side members between an extended position with the first edge adjacent to the first ends of the first and second side members and a tucked position with the front edge spaced away from the first ends.

A shelf assembly, in particular for a domestic cooling device, includes a receiving plate having a front plate edge, a rear plate edge and two lateral plate edges, and a holding strut on at least one of the lateral plate edges for supporting the receiving plate. The holding strut has in the region of a rear strut end at least one hook structure for fitting the holding strut into a mounting opening of a carrying structure. At a distance beneath the hook structure, the holding strut forms a first support structure for support on a front side, facing the strut, of the carrying structure. The holding strut, in the region of the rear strut end, at a distance above the first support structure, provides a resiliently deflectable second support structure for support on the front side, facing the strut, of the carrying structure.

The invention relates to a freezer device or refrigerator/freezer combination having a freezer compartment with an ice cube compartment (10) which has an ice cube maker (50) and a pan-shaped ice cube drawer (10) for collecting the ice cubes. The ice cube drawer (10) has a two-part design and comprises a main drawer (30) and a secondary drawer (40). The front panel (34) of the main drawer (30) comprises an insert opening (36), and the secondary drawer (40) is inserted into the main drawer (30) through said insert opening (36).

A refrigerator includes a cabinet that defines a storage chamber, a heat exchange space that is defined by the cabinet and positioned rearward of the storage chamber, an evaporator unit that is provided at the heat exchange space, a grill fan assembly that provides a barrier between the heat exchange space and the storage chamber, a drawer door that is configured to be inserted into and withdrawn out of the storage chamber, a draw-out rail provided between an inner surface of the lower storage chamber and both lateral sides of the drawer door to guide a movement of the drawer door into and out of the storage chamber, and a lighting unit provided at a rear surface of the door part and configured to illuminate the drawer part and to guide air coming from the outlet of the grill fan assembly in a downward direction into the storage space.

A refrigerator includes a cabinet defining a cabinet storage space, a front panel door part, a drawer part that is located at a rear surface of the front panel door part and that defines a drawer storage space, a drawer cover that partitions the drawer storage space into a front space and a rear space and that covers the rear space, and at least one draw-out rail located at each of both sides of the drawer part. The drawer cover includes a partition part configured to partition the drawer storage space into the front space and the rear space, and a cover part that extends from an upper end of the partition part to a rear end of the drawer part to cover a top of the rear space of the drawer storage space.

A refrigerator includes: a cabinet; an upper door; a lower door that is a drawer type door; a draw-out rail that connects the lower door to a storage space in the cabinet and that guides insertion and withdrawal of the lower door in a front-rear direction; an elevation assembly that is located in the lower door, that elevates an object stored in the lower door in a state in which the lower door is withdrawn, and that elevates the object relative to the lower door; and a door restriction device configured to selectively restrict an opening movement of the upper door based on whether the lower door is opened or closed. The door restriction device is configured to restrict the opening movement of the upper door based on the lower door being opened, and to allow the opening movement of the upper door based on the lower door being closed.

A refrigerator shelf assembly includes a frame having a depth and a first support element extending along the depth and defining a first track open in a lateral direction perpendicular to the depth. The support element further defines a first open area along a first side of the track and extending between an adjacent portion of the track and an exterior of the first support element and a cantilever arm having a free end adjacent the first open area. The cantilever arm is resiliently deformable away from a plane defined along the first side of the track. The assembly further includes an insert slidably received within the track and moveable along the depth of the first track through a fixed range of motion, wherein the insert is disposed over an expanse of the first open area.
