A refrigeration appliance including a partition that defines a through passage between an upper compartment and a lower compartment. A temperature control system is positioned in the upper compartment and includes an air passage. A lower inlet opening extends through a front surface of the vertical partition to the air passage. A damper assembly includes a door that is moveable between a first position and a second position. When the door is in the first position the door fluidly isolates the through passage in the partition from the upper compartment while allowing the lower inlet opening in the vertical partition to fluidly communicate with the air passage in the vertical partition. When the door is in the second position the door fluidly isolates the lower inlet opening from the air passage while allowing the through passage to fluidly communicate with the upper compartment.

This invention is directed to a kit of coolers that offers a number of improvements over the prior art. The coolers are modified to specifically accommodate frozen gel ice packs instead of ice cubes. Because there is no spill water, the coolers open with front-facing pull-out drawers. The coolers stack atop one another with interlocking parts. Easy transport is provided by a handle and wheels, which are attached to the bottom (main) bin. Internally, the cooler bins are compartmentalized horizontally or vertically with dividers. Hollow spaces within the walls and dividers of the bins accommodate frozen gel ice packs. Overall, the coolers are easier to pack and unpack, stack, load into a car, and transport on the ground than conventional ice chest coolers.

A locker assembly insert 10 for a cabinet 11. The cabinet 11 is a two door cabinet having a first door 12 and a second door 13. A central mullion 19 having a rear cover plate divides the cabinet 11 down the middle and the doors 12 and 13 close the cabinet. The locker assembly insert 10 in this case is applied to a two door cabinet and has a central support member 20 (which is put in place by first removing the rear cover plate behind the central mullion 19, the rear cover plate is tucked in behind the central support member 20 before assembly allowing it to be reused if the refrigerator is ever restored to its original condition). The insert is completed using vertical divider sets 27, 28 and 29 and ten door locker door assemblies 30 and 31.

Disclosed herein is a refrigerator. The refrigerator includes a cold air generating device configured to generate cold air, a plurality of storage chambers arranged in at least a part of an area around the cold air generating device, a cold air guide unit configured to extend from the cold air generating device toward the plurality of storage chambers for guiding cold air generated from the cold air generating device selectively to the respective storage chambers, and a discharge guide unit configured to guide inside air of the respective storage chambers to the outside.

An improved portable cooler can be configured to provide access to its contents from multiple orientations while reducing the likelihood of water spillage or contamination. The improved portable cooler may optionally include one or more sliding compartments to allow access to the contents of the portable cooler when the cooler is arranged in any of a horizontal or vertical orientation.

A trunk cooler removably connected under a seat of a vehicle, the trunk cooler including a base cooler receptacle to store at least one item therein, a plurality of retractable legs disposed on a bottom surface of the base cooler receptacle to support the base cooler receptacle in response to moving the plurality of retractable legs from being retracted in a first vertical position to at least partially extended in a second vertical position, and a cooling system to inject cold air into an interior portion of the base cooler.

A portable cooler is provided that includes a base that supports a refrigeration unit. The base also supports a plurality of upwardly-extending support poles that accommodate a top portion. The support poles, top portion, and base define a food storage volume that is surrounded by a plurality of insulative walls.

Provided is a refrigerator including a storeroom, an inner casing including a first plate to define the storeroom, a partition coupled to the first plate to divide the storeroom into multiple storerooms, and a bracket arranged on the first plate to couple the partition to the first plate, wherein the first plate includes a plurality of holes formed at a location corresponding to a location where the bracket is coupled to the first plate.

A refrigerator may include: a refrigerator compartment, a convertible compartment, an evaporator disposed in the convertible compartment; and a grill pan assembly forming a space where the evaporator is disposed by dividing the inside of the convertible compartment. The grill pan assembly may include an insulating member, a convertible compartment fan, a refrigerator compartment fan, and an opening device formed at the insulating member from the convertible compartment channel to the refrigerator compartment channel.

A freezer compartment having a flexible size is provided. In a refrigerator, a storage compartment includes an insulated shelf to separate a freezer compartment from a refrigerator compartment. The insulated shelf is movable to alter the size of the freezer compartment. In some cases, the freezer compartment is accessed by an internal door having a main door and a secondary door that can open separately to provide selective access to portions of the storage compartment. In other cases, the freezer compartment is accessed by an internal door that swings up about a horizontally-directed hinge axis.
