In a gas supply device that supplies gas to a target space through a filter unit, the filter unit is composed of a filter box and an air filter housed in the filter box, and the air filter is a filter having a filter substrate made of a membrane filter and a fibrous coating layer covering a surface of the filter substrate through which air is sucked.

A refrigerator includes a rear assembly panel coupled with an assembly cover panel that includes at least one vent. At least one circulation fan is positioned between the rear assembly panel and the assembly cover panel and is proximate the at least one vent. A filter is positioned between the rear assembly panel and the assembly cover panel and is coupled to a photocatalyst to form an activated carbon filter. A light-emitting diode (LED) panel assembly includes a plurality of LEDs positioned on the rear assembly panel and is positioned to project light on the activated carbon filter. An air circulation path extends through the at least one vent and the activated carbon filter and is configured to direct air along the air circulation path, and the activated carbon filter is configured to filter airborne bacteria and particulate matter from the air as the air passes through the activated carbon filter.

The present invention provides a refrigeration and freezing device, including a case body, a door body, an oxygen-enrichment membrane assembly, an air pump, and a refrigeration system. For the refrigeration and freezing device, temperature within an appropriate storage range and a nitrogen-rich and oxygen-deficient atmosphere cooperate, thereby effectively extending the shelf life of foods.

The present invention discloses a door-in-door having a display screen assembly and a refrigerator having the same. The door-in-door comprises a first door body and a second door body; the first door body has a transparent panel, and the second door body is provided with a display screen assembly. When the first door body closes the cabinet, a display interface of the display screen assembly is displayed through the transparent panel of the first door body. According to the present invention, an operation state of the refrigerator can be learnt about without opening the first door body.

A refrigerator includes a cabinet coupled to one or more doors forming a storage compartment. The refrigerator additionally includes a first fan assembly positioned on an interior surface of a first cabinet wall, and a second fan assembly positioned on the interior surface of a second cabinet wall. The first and second fan assemblies each include: two or more circulation fans; a filter coupled to a photocatalyst to form an activated filter; and a plurality of UV LEDs positioned to project light on the activated filter. An air circulation path is configured to direct air born bacteria and particulate matter within the storage compartment contemporaneously into the first and second fan assemblies using the two or more circulation fans and circulate filtered air into the storage compartment through the activated filter disposed in the air circulation path.

The present invention provides a refrigerator, comprising: an adsorption container, an air compressor and a nitrogen storage tank. A sealed storage space is formed in a storage compartment of the refrigerator. The adsorption container with carbon molecular sieves disposed therein is disposed in the storage compartment. The air compressor is directly connected to the adsorption container through an air inlet pipe and configured to supply compressed air for the adsorption container in a controlled manner so as to allow the carbon molecular sieves to prepare nitrogen by means of the compressed air. A gas inlet end of the nitrogen storage tank is connected to the adsorption container, and a gas outlet end thereof is communicated with the storage space.

The present invention relates to a refrigerator controlling freshness on the basis of context awareness and artificial intelligence, a server, a portable device, and a method for controlling freshness. The refrigerator controlling freshness on the basis of context awareness, according to one embodiment of the present invention, comprises: one or more partitioned storage spaces; one or more freshness sensors for sensing the freshness in an outside area or the storage spaces; a communication unit for receiving operation instruction information from the server or the portable device, and transmitting, to the server or the portable device, freshness condition information generated by the freshness sensors; and a control unit for controlling the freshness sensors and the communication unit, and performing a freshness control operation according to operation instruction information instructing an operation that differs from pre-set operating condition information that is set for any one or more of the storage spaces.

A crisper drawer for a refrigerator having a refrigerated compartment is disclosed. The crisper drawer includes a plurality of side walls defining a storage chamber, an opening in a side wall to provide fluid communication between the storage chamber and the refrigerated compartment, and a multi-function filter cassette configured to be positioned within the opening. The multi-function filter cassette includes a first filter configured to remove contaminants from a first air flow within the refrigerated compartment, a second filter configured to remove contaminants and/or moisture from a second air flow within the storage chamber, and a central wall configured to prevent fluid communication between the refrigerated compartment and the storage chamber.

Various embodiments are directed to an improved electrochemical cell system that is configured to reduce the concentration of a target gas in a cold storage environment. The electrochemical cell system may comprise an electrochemical cell apparatus, an air circulation apparatus, and a flow hood. The electrochemical cell apparatus may be combined with or coupled to an air circulation apparatus via the flow hood to maximize access of the target gas to the gas aperture.

A gas supply device is provided with a heating unit that heats gas flowing into a filter provided in a filter unit.
