Staged access door for a home appliance
A refrigerator that includes a cabinet housing a refrigerator compartment and having a front opening. A door provides access to the refrigerator compartment. The door includes a first section and a second section. A locking mechanism is provided for selectively securing the second section to the first section when the second section is in a closed position relative to the first section. The locking mechanism includes a handle disposed within an elongated recess of the second section. A latch hook is engageable with the handle for selectively locking the second section in the closed position relative to the first section.
WATER PURIFYING APPARATUS AND REFRIGERATOR
A water purifying apparatus includes: a plurality of filters purifying and discharging introduced water along flow paths formed therein; a plurality of heads to which the plurality of filters are individually mounted to be detachable, the plurality of heads each having an inlet part and an outlet part, through which water is introduced and discharged; a mounting member to which the plurality of heads are mounted in parallel, the mounting member having a rotation supporting part that rotatably supports the head, and the rotation supporting part being formed recessed such that the inlet part and the outlet part are accommodated therein; and a connecting cap mounted on the rotation supporting part to connect the inlet part and the outlet part to communicate with each other.
REFRIGERATOR
A refrigerator includes: a cabinet defining a storage space, a door configured to open and close the storage space, and a step difference adjustment member disposed at a rear surface of the door. The step difference adjustment member comprises (i) a stopper that contacts, based on the door being closed, a front surface of the cabinet and (ii) a mounting portion that defines an accommodation space into which the stopper is inserted, and the stopper is configured to move with respect to the mounting portion to thereby vary a protruding length of the stopper from the mounting portion.
WATER PURIFYING APPARATUS AND FILTER STRUCTURE
A water purifying apparatus including a head having a water inlet portion and a water outlet portion; a shaft provided in the head and rotatably mounted between the water inlet portion and the water outlet portion; a bypass flow path passing through a circumference of the shaft, and communicating the water inlet portion with the water outlet portion according to rotation of the shaft; a filter detachably mounted to the head, and having a filter inserting portion in which the shaft is inserted when being mounted on the head; and a filtering flow path in which an inlet port and an outlet port are formed on the circumference of the shaft in a direction intersecting the bypass flow path, and communicated between the filter, the water inlet portion and the water outlet portion with each other according to the rotation of the shaft.
REFRIGERATOR
A refrigerator includes: a cabinet having a storage space formed therein; a door mounted to the cabinet to open/close the storage space; a mounting projection formed at a rear surface of the door; and a door basket attachably/detachably mounted at the rear surface of the door by the mounting projection, wherein the door basket includes: a storage part formed of a transparent material to allow the inside thereof to be seen, the storage part forming a space in which foods are stored; and a frame part formed at a bottom end of the storage part, the frame part being coupled to the mounting projection to support the door basket and simultaneously shield the mounting projection at the outside.
Attachment arrangement for vacuum insulated door
A refrigerator includes an insulated cabinet structure and a cooling system. A door assembly includes a perimeter structure that is movably mounted to the insulated cabinet structure and an outer door that is movably mounted to the perimeter structure whereby the outer door can be moved between open and closed positions relative to the perimeter structure when the perimeter structure is in its closed position The outer door may comprise a vacuum insulated structure including porous core material disposed in a cavity of the outer door.
Double cabinet vacuum insulated refrigerator with a structural foamed mullion
An insulation system for an appliance includes a first vacuum insulated structure having a first set of sidewalls that define a first refrigerating compartment, a second vacuum insulated structure having a second set of sidewalls that define a second refrigerating compartment and a medial insulation structure having a rigid perimeter wall. The rigid perimeter wall includes a front portion that defines at least one hinge support adapted to support an appliance door. The rigid perimeter wall defines an insulating cavity that is filled with an insulating material. The first vacuum insulated structure engages a first edge of the perimeter wall and the second vacuum insulated structure engages a second edge of the perimeter wall.
REFRIGERATION APPLIANCE WITH MOVABLE FRONT PANEL
An appliance body of a refrigeration appliance can be closed off in its upper part by at least one door and receives a drawer in its lower part. The drawer can be locked in the closed position by a latch, which engages into a fitting part that supports the door.
BOTTOM MOUNT MULLION ROLLER
Provided is a refrigeration appliance including a refrigerated compartment, and a plurality of doors that, when closed, cooperate with each other to collectively enclose an entrance into the refrigerated compartment. A mullion is pivotally coupled to a distal side of a first door included in the plurality of doors, and is pivotal between an open orientation when the first door is open and a closed orientation in which a seal is established between the mullion and a second door when the doors are closed. A roller is provided adjacent to an end of the mullion, and includes a rubberized material that extends about at least a portion of an exterior periphery of the roller. A receiver with an arcuate surface over which the exterior periphery of the roller with the rubberized material travels to adjust the mullion between the open orientation and the closed orientation is also provided.
REFRIGERATOR
Disclosed herein is a refrigerator which includes: a main body having an opening, and including a storage chamber therein; a door configured to open or close the opening; a camera unit disposed in the door, and configured to photograph the storage chamber, wherein the camera unit faces the storage chamber selectively by interworking with opening or closing of the door. With this configuration, it may look in the storage chamber of the refrigerator without opening any door and minimize exposure of the camera unit to the outside.
