In a refrigerator, a cam of a cam gear rotating by a driving motor is provided with a structure protruding from an edge portion of a cam gear to a center, thereby increasing the thickness of a cam surface. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the magnitude of force directly transferred from the cam gear to a magnet lever.

A refrigerator having a freezer compartment and a refrigerator compartment, the refrigerator including an icemaker provided at the freezer compartment door configured to open/close the freezer compartment, a dispenser provided at a refrigerator compartment door configured to open/close the refrigerator compartment, and a water tank provided at the refrigerator compartment door, the water tank having an inlet through which water is introduced into the water tank, a first outlet for supplying water to the dispenser, and a second outlet for supplying water to a pump, wherein the pump is configured to pump water from the water tank to the icemaker.

A refrigerator according the present disclosure includes a first tray configured to form a portion of an ice making cell, a second tray configured to form another portion of the ice making cell and capable of moving relative to the first tray, a driver configured to move the second tray, a temperature sensor configured to sense the temperature of water or ice in the ice making cell, and a controller configured to control the driver, in which when it is determined that the water in the ice making cell is in a supercooled state based on the temperature measured by the tray temperature sensor, the controller may operate the driver to move the second tray.

The present invention relates to a refrigerator.

The refrigerator of the present invention includes a first tray assembly configured to define one portion of an ice making cell, a second tray assembly configured to define the other portion of the ice making cell, a heater disposed adjacent to at least one of the first and second tray assemblies, and a controller configured to control the heater.

The refrigerator further include a pusher including a first edge having a surface pressing the ice or at least one of the first and second tray assemblies to easily separate the ice from the tray assemblies, a bar extending from the first edge, and a second edge disposed at the end of the bar; and a pusher link having a connection part connected to the pusher. The controller controls to move at least one of the pusher and the second tray assembly and to change a relative position between the pusher and the second tray assembly.
