An ice making assembly includes: an ice maker configured to make ice, an ice bin that has a portion disposed below the ice maker and that is configured to receive the ice from the ice maker, a detection lever that is disposed below the ice maker and that is configured to rotate to thereby detect a volume of the ice in the ice bin, and a driver configured to rotate the ice maker along a moving path between (i) an ice making position at which ice making is performed and (ii) an ice separating position at which ice separation is performed. The detection lever is configured to detect the volume of the ice in the ice bin being full before and after the ice is separated from the ice maker.

The present disclosure relates to a refrigerator. The refrigerator includes first storage for defining a first storage space therein, a door for opening and closing the first storage space, and a plurality of shelves installed in the first storage space for placing food thereon. The door includes a door frame having an opening defined therein, and mounted pivotable to the first storage, a panel assembly inserted into the opening, and disposed to allow the first storage space to be seen through, and a flow path blocking portion mounted on the door frame, wherein the flow path blocking portion shields a gap defined between the panel assembly and the shelf as the door closes the first storage space.

A refrigerator includes a cabinet defining a storage compartment therein, a door that provides selective access to the storage compartment, and an ice maker provided in the door. An air duct directs a flow of air from an insulated chamber to the ice maker. An air cooling system cools air inside the insulated chamber and comprises a first non-evaporative heat exchanger positioned independent of and adjacent to an evaporator, a second non-evaporative heat exchanger provided within the insulated chamber, and a fluid line that directs a circulation of fluid between the first and second non-evaporative heat exchangers. The first non-evaporative heat exchanger is provided in heat exchanging relationship with the evaporator to cool the fluid positioned in the first non-evaporative heat exchanger, and the second non-evaporative heat exchanger is provided in heat exchanging relationship with the air inside the insulated chamber to cool the air therein.

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 comprises: a refrigerator body having an open front side to define a first chamber; and a door body used to open or close the first chamber and defining a second chamber. The door body further defines a square annular air duct surrounding an outer side of the second chamber. The air duct comprises an air inlet section, two air supply sections and an air outlet section which are respectively located at an upper side, two transverse sides and a lower side of the second chamber. The air inlet section has an air inlet for intake of cold air. Each air supply section has an air supply portion for supplying the cold air to the second chamber. The air outlet section has an air outlet for discharging the remaining cold air in the air duct. The temperature in the chamber defined by the door body can be independently controlled.

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.

Provided is a refrigerator. The refrigerator includes a cabinet including an inner case defining a storage compartment, an outer case surrounding the outside of the inner case, and an insulation material provided between the inner case and the outer case, a storage compartment door opening and closing the storage compartment, a cold air duct provided in the storage compartment and disposed in an upper side of the storage compartment to discharge cold air to the storage compartment, and a guide duct disposed outside the inner case to communicate with the cold air duct and extending to the storage compartment door to guide the cold air received from the cold air duct to the storage compartment door.

A refrigerator includes: an evaporator provided in a storage space and configured to supply cold air to the storage space, a duct assembly provided above the evaporator and configured to guide the cold air supplied to the storage space, a door supply duct coupled to the duct assembly and configured to guide a part of the cold air flowing through the duct assembly to a door, and a fan motor assembly coupled to a lower end of the duct assembly and configured to suction air cooled by the evaporator and blow the suctioned air into the duct assembly. The duct assembly defines a first passage and a second passage that are spaced apart from each other, where the second passage includes a main passage configured to supply the cold air to the storage space and a sub-passage branched from the main passage and coupled to the door supply duct.

A door assembly for a refrigeration door system with a defrosting feature. The door assembly also includes a door frame. The door frame may include a top member having a first end and a second end opposite the first end, and the top member may have a top conduit therein. The door frame may also include a first side member coupled transversely to the first end of the top member and having a first conduit therein, the first conduit being fluidly coupled to the top conduit, and a second side member coupled transversely to the second end of the top member and having a second conduit. The second conduit may be fluidly coupled to the top conduit. The door frame may further have orifices positioned along the top member, the first side member, and the second side member. The door assembly also includes a positive pressure source.
