Provided is a vacuum adiabatic body. The vacuum adiabatic body includes a mullion configured to divide a space within the refrigerator into a refrigerating compartment and a freezing compartment, an ice maker placed in the freezing compartment, and an ice-making cool air passage passing through the mullion to connect the freezing compartment to the ice maker. Therefore, cool air may be supplied in an adiabatic state to the ice maker disposed in the refrigerating compartment.

Disclosed is a refrigerating and freezing device, including: a storage compartment partitioned into a plurality of first spaces; a cooling chamber configured to accommodate an evaporator of the refrigerating and freezing device; an air channel system having a plurality of first air supply outlets, a main return air outlet and an on-off control device; and a plurality of drawers, wherein each drawer is mounted in one of the first spaces, each drawer has an air inlet and a return air outlet, each air inlet is communicated with one of the first air supply outlets, and each return air outlet is communicated with the main return air outlet; and the on-off control device is configured to control air flow from the cooling chamber to flow to one or more of the plurality of first air supply outlets, and then control all or part of the air flow to flow to the corresponding drawers.

Proposed is a refrigerator including a cabinet having a freezing compartment above a partition wall and a refrigerating compartment therebelow, an evaporator positioned behind the freezing compartment and generating cool air, a freezing-compartment grill assembly positioned in front of the evaporator inside the freezing compartment, a blowing fan for blowing the cool air being mounted in the freezing-compartment grill assembly, and a refrigerating-compartment grill assembly positioned behind the refrigerating compartment, wherein a refrigerating-compartment discharge flow path guiding discharging of the cool air supplied from the freezing-compartment grill assembly into the refrigerating compartment, and a refrigerating-compartment retrieval flow path guiding flowing of the cool air retrieved from the refrigerating compartment into the freezing compartment are formed together in the refrigerating-compartment grill assembly.

A refrigerator drawer having a body having a front panel, a rear panel, two side panels, more than one pivotable dividers, each divider pivotable between use and non-use positions, the dividers capable of dividing the drawer body into more than one compartments, a ducted cover and/or a ducted bottom, the ducted cover and ducted bottom each having a channel connecting to more than one fans, and a temperature sensor located within each of the possible compartments is provided.

A method of manufacturing a refrigerator appliance includes a providing step of providing a liner and a refrigerator component. The liner defines a compartment for storing food items and includes a liner contact structure. The refrigerator component includes component contact structure. The method further includes a staging step that includes arranging the liner and refrigerator component such that the liner and component contact structures are in direct contact with each other under pressure, thereby forming a staged assembly. Moreover, the method includes a welding step that includes applying ultrasonic energy to the staged assembly to weld the liner and refrigerator component together at their interface, thereby forming a liner assembly. The method further includes a cabinet assembly step that includes arranging the liner assembly within an outer shell, and then injecting an insulating foam into a space between the liner assembly and outer shell.

A refrigerator includes a rear wall, a first strap, a second strap, an insulative member, a housing, an ozone generator, a ventilation panel, and a light. The first strap and the second strap fix the insulative member to the rear wall. The housing is disposed in the ventilation panel. A frontside of the housing has a recessed portion that defines a receptacle on a backside of the wall, a trough on the frontside of the wall, and a first number of vents. The first number of vents establish fluid communication between the receptacle and the trough. The ozone generator is disposed in the receptacle. The light is fixed to the housing. The light includes a cover that overlaps at least a portion of the trough and defines a second number of vents that are in fluid communication with the trough.

A refrigerator includes an evaporator, a first fan, a first duct, a second fan, a second duct, and a plate. The first duct is mounted between the evaporator and the first fan. The first fan moves air from the first duct into a first zone. The second fan moves air from the second duct into a second zone. The plate is mounted between the evaporator and the second duct. The plate includes a plate aperture wall that defines a duct aperture formed through the plate. A first aperture of the second duct is adjacent the second fan. A second aperture of the second duct is positioned to encompass the duct aperture. A center of the duct aperture is positioned a distance from a center of the evaporator measured in a first direction. The distance is between 0% and 40% of a total length of the evaporator in the first direction.

A refrigerator is proposed. Due to a first heater provided in a damper assembly, a damper assembly or the connection portion of the damper assembly with a supply duct is prevented from freezing, and due to a second heater provided in the supply duct, the connection portion of the supply duct with the damper assembly or the inside of the supply duct is prevented from freezing.

A fixation system for use in a refrigerator, including an insulative member and a ventilation panel defining a number of vents, includes first and second straps. The second strap is spaced apart from the first strap. The first strap and the second strap are collectively configured to receive the insulative member. The first strap includes a main body having a rear side and a front side opposing the rear side. The rear side is configured to lie against a rear wall of the refrigerator and defines a first aperture configured to receive a first fastener to fix the main body to the rear wall of the refrigerator. The front side defines a second aperture configured to receive a second fastener to fix the ventilation panel to the main body.
