The comb baffle portion is configured to extract condensate from between the plurality of refrigerant tubes and the conveyance portion is configured to convey condensate away from the heat exchanger assembly.

A refrigerating cabinet (1) comprises at least one goods presentation and air circulation space (2), a refrigeration cycle for cooling the at least one goods presentation and air circulation space (2), and at least one drain conduit (36; 42) configured for draining condensed water, which is produced when the refrigeration circuit is operating, from the at least one goods presentation and air circulation space (2). At least a portion of the at least one drain conduit (36; 42) is filled with a granulate material (34) or provided with a movable flap (48) allowing water to pass through the drain conduit (36; 42) and blocking air from passing through the drain conduit (36; 42).

A refrigerator includes a storage chamber; an evaporator; an evaporator receiving portion and a defrost water tray slantingly arranged at a lower side of the evaporator receiving portion; a machinery chamber having an evaporation tray; an upper hose communicated with the defrost water tray; a lower hose connected to the upper hose while extending to the evaporation tray, the lower hose being provided, at one side thereof, with an air inlet hole to introduce outside air. The air inlet hole is formed at a slanted mounting surface protruding inside of a vertically-extending portion of the lower hose while being slanted downward. An opening and closing unit is provided in the vertically-extending portion of the lower hose that is configured to open the air inlet hole by an internal pressure of the storage chamber during opening of the door, and to close the air inlet hole by gravity.

A refrigerator comprises: a refrigerator body (10), at the interior of which a cooling chamber (11) and at least one storage space are confined, wherein the cooling chamber (11) is arranged at the bottom of the refrigerator body (10) and below the storage space; door bodies (20) arranged on a front surface of the refrigerator body (10) to operably open and close the storage space; and an evaporator (21), which is wholly horizontally placed in the shape of a flat cube in the cooling chamber (11) and configured to provide cold energy to the storage space, wherein a bottom wall of the cooling chamber (11) below the evaporator (21) is provided with a water pan (40) to receive condensate water generated by the evaporator (21), and the bottom of the water pan (40) is provided with compensation heating wires (80).

A refrigerator having an inclined drain pipe disposed at a lower portion of the refrigerator comprises: a cabinet; a storage chamber, a refrigeration cavity, a heat dissipation machine compartment, and a front wall of the heat dissipation machine compartment extends obliquely upwards from front to back from the middle of a cabinet bottom plate; an evaporation dish; a drain pipe extends obliquely downwards from front to back from the bottom of the refrigeration cavity, passes through the front wall of the heat dissipation machine compartment and then further extends to the evaporation dish; a water pipe securing member is arranged at the position where the drain pipe passes through the front wall; the water pipe securing member has a first securing face, and the first securing face is abutting the front wall of the heat dissipation machine compartment.

A refrigeration appliance includes: (a) a cabinet including (i) a vacuum insulated structure at least partially defining a refrigeration compartment and a freezer compartment and (ii) a conduit system in fluid communication with both the refrigeration compartment and the freezer compartment; (b) a refrigeration door coupled to the cabinet, the refrigeration door manipulable to, from, and between (i) a closed position where the refrigeration door denies access to the refrigeration compartment from an external environment and (ii) an open position where the refrigeration door allows access to the refrigeration compartment from the external environment; and (c) a refrigeration door coupled to the cabinet, the refrigeration door manipulable to, from, and between (i) a closed position where the refrigeration door denies access to the refrigeration compartment from an external environment and (ii) an open position where the refrigeration door allows access to the refrigeration compartment from the external environment.

An ice maker including piping for water drainage therein is provided. The ice maker includes a cabinet body, an ice storage portion provided in the cabinet body and separable from the cabinet body, a first coupling portion disposed on a lower surface of the ice storage portion and having a first coupling hole, a drain portion provided downwardly of the cabinet body within the cabinet body and including a drainage passage connected to an external drainage hole, and an overflow socket inserted into the first coupling hole and connected to the drainage passage to connect the ice storage portion to the drain portion, and configuring a path allowing water received by the ice storage portion to be discharged to the drainage passage, thereby providing an ice maker having easy separation and coupling.

A temperature controlled case includes a housing that defines a temperature controlled space; a cooling system in thermal communication with the temperature controlled space; and a modular tank supporting the housing and the cooling system. According to one embodiment, the modular tank includes: a body having a top surface, a drain defined by the top surface, and at least one groove defined by the top surface, wherein a groove of the at least one groove receives a component of the housing to couple the component to the modular tank.

A vacuum adiabatic body according to the present invention includes a supporting block which is fastened to an outer surface of any one plate placed outside the control space in a plate member which provides a wall of the vacuum adiabatic body. Accordingly, since the vacuum adiabatic bodies in a state of being not in contact with each other can be fastened to each other, various products corresponding to the needs of the consumer can be provided.
