Provided is a vacuum adiabatic body. The vacuum adiabatic body includes an outer case made of a metal material, which is thicker than a plate providing a vacuum space. The vacuum space provides two extension modules that extend in directions different from each other. Accordingly, a refrigerator door may be improved in adiabatic performance.

A refrigerator includes a cold air supply device configured to generate an air curtain and disposed on an upper surface of the refrigerator. The cold air supply device includes a shielding module configured to selectively cover or open an air curtain hole supplying air to form the air curtain based on a door of the refrigerator being closed or opened.

Disclosed herein is an refrigerator. The refrigerator includes a body provided with a storage chamber, a door configured to open or close the storage chamber, a display unit provided on the door, and a heat radiating unit disposed adjacent to the display unit and configured to radiate a heat generated in the display unit via a heat radiating flow path formed inside the door, wherein one end of the heat radiating flow path is communicated with the outside via a first hole formed in an upper end portion of the door, and the other end of the heat radiating flow path is communicated with the outside via a second hole formed in a lower end portion of the door.

A refrigerator includes a cabinet including a refrigerating compartment and an evaporation chamber, a first door, a housing in the first door, an ice making room defining a cool air inflow hole and a cool air discharge hole, a chiller room defining a cool air discharge hole, a second door connected to the first door, a partition wall defining the ice making room, the chiller room, and a communication hole, a damper opening and closing the communication hole, a cool air supply duct connecting an outlet of the evaporation chamber and the cool air inflow hole to supply cool air of the evaporation chamber to the ice making room, and a cool air return duct having a first inlet connected to the cool air discharge hole of the ice making chamber and a second inlet connected to the cool air discharge hole of the chiller room.

A refrigerator includes an outer case, an inner case coupled to the outer case and equipped with a storeroom, a heat exchanger disposed adjacent to the storeroom to supply cold air, and a front cover defining one side of the storeroom. The front cover includes at least one end having a recessed portion that forms a cold air supply port to supply cold air supplied from the heat exchanger into the storeroom.

A refrigerator includes a fresh food compartment and a mullion adjacent the fresh food compartment. The refrigerator further includes an evaporator compartment defining an exterior and an interior and containing an evaporator. The refrigerator also includes a duct in fluid communication with the evaporator compartment at a first end thereof and in communication with a second end adjacent an opening of the fresh food compartment. The duct has a first portion thereof that extends downwardly from the first end and a second portion extending through the mullion.

A refrigerator includes an outer wrapper, a fresh food compartment defined by a liner within the wrapper and separated from an interior of the outer wrapper at least along a first side wall of the fresh food compartment to define a void, and a door at least partially enclosing an opening to the fresh food compartment when in a closed position. A door compartment is positioned along the door. The refrigerator further includes an evaporator compartment positioned at least partially within the fresh food compartment and a duct in fluid communication with the evaporator compartment at a first end thereof and in communication with the door compartment a second end thereof. The duct has a first portion that extends laterally from the first end along a portion of the evaporator compartment and a second portion extending through the void along the first side wall of the fresh food compartment.

A refrigeration appliance includes a cabinet that defines a cabinet outlet and a cabinet inlet in fluid communication with a freezer compartment. A door is pivotally coupled to the cabinet. The door defines a door inlet in fluid communication with the cabinet outlet and a door outlet in fluid communication with the cabinet inlet when the door is in a closed position. An icemaker compartment is disposed in the door. The icemaker compartment is fluidly coupled with the freezer compartment. A retainer is at least partially disposed in each of the door inlet and the door outlet. Each retainer includes a rim that defines ribs. Each rib is spaced apart from adjacent ribs. A gasket is coupled to each retainer. Each gasket includes an abutment surface that abuts a cabinet surface when the door is in the closed position to seal airflow passages between the freezer compartment and the icemaker compartment.

A refrigerator includes an inner case including (i) a refrigerating case that defines a refrigerator compartment and (ii) a freezing case that defines a freezer compartment, an outer case disposed outside the inner case, a connection duct disposed between the inner case and the outer case, and a refrigerator compartment cold air supply duct that is detachably coupled to a rear inner surface of the refrigerating case and in fluid communication with the connection duct. The connection duct and the refrigerator compartment cold air supply duct are in communication on a rear surface of the refrigerating case with the refrigerating case interposed therebetween, thereby reducing the area occupied by the refrigerator compartment cold air supply duct disposed in the rear inner surface of the refrigerator compartment.

A refrigerator includes a refrigerator case, a freezer case disposed below the refrigerator case, a door disposed at a front of the refrigerator case, an ice maker disposed at the door, an evaporator disposed at a rear of the freezer case, an ice maker supply duct supplying the cold air to the ice maker, and an ice maker return duct supplying the cold air from the ice maker to the freezer compartment. An upper portion of the ice maker return duct extends from a rear of one side surface of the freezer case to a front of one side surface of the refrigerator case, a lower portion of the ice maker return duct extends in a vertical direction from the rear of one side surface of the freezer case, and the lower portion bends from the upper portion toward the other side surface of the freezer case.
