According to the present disclosure, after a load operation is performed by satisfying a start condition of the load operation, the load operation is terminated when a compartment temperature of a storage compartment satisfies a termination condition when a door is opened or when a temperature change in the storage compartment satisfies the termination condition. Accordingly, excessive power consumption during the load operation may be prevented, and thus power consumption may be improved.

It is an object to provide a refrigerator that suppresses heat intrusion from a heat radiation pipe for suppressing dew condensation with respect to a partition plate of a refrigerator. The refrigerator includes a partition plate that partitions a room into a plurality of rooms and a door that seals the plurality of rooms. The partition plate includes an upper plate that positions on upper side, a lower plate that positions on lower side, a design plate that positions between the upper plate and the lower plate, and a heat insulating material fixed between the design plate and the upper plate or the lower plate in a compressed state in which a compressed portion has a thickness smaller than a thickness of other portions.

The present invention provides a refrigerator comprising: a cabinet having a storage chamber; a door for opening or closing the storage chamber; a case in which an inlet through which air flows from the storage chamber and an outlet through which the air is discharged to the storage chamber are formed; an evaporator provided inside the case for exchanging heat with the air to supply cool air; and a differential pressure sensor provided inside the case.

A refrigerator includes a control module which controls a first compressor, a second compressor, a first fan, a second fan, and a third fan, in which the control module performs a high-temperature initial simultaneous operation when the outside air temperature is at the outside air set temperature or more, performs a high-temperature initial alternation operation when the freezing compartment temperature is at the freezing compartment set temperature or less and the refrigerating compartment temperature is at the refrigerating compartment set temperature or less during the high-temperature initial simultaneous operation. The control module drives the first compressor and the second compressor together during the high-temperature initial simultaneous operation, and alternately drives the first compressor and the second compressor during the high-temperature initial alternation operation.

A beverage dispensing system includes a cabinet with a dispensing station. The cabinet includes therein a refrigeration system, a cooling fluid system, and a refrigerated compartment having therein a cooling system and a beverage source coupled with the dispensing station. The cooling fluid system circulates a cooling fluid through the refrigeration system such that the refrigeration system cools the cooling fluid. The cooling fluid system further normally circulates the cooling fluid through the dispensing station to cool beverage therein. The cooling fluid system directs the cooling fluid from the dispensing station to the cooling system when necessary to cool the refrigerated compartment. A beverage fluid system resides in the cooling fluid system between the beverage source and the dispensing station such that the cooling fluid system cools beverage flowing through the beverage fluid system prior to delivery of beverage to the dispensing station for dispensing therefrom.

A cooling arrangement for refrigerators is provided, which allows better control and temperature maintenance for beverage cans, which facilitates access to them without having to open other cooling chamber of the refrigerator and also prevents an abrupt shift of the cans which can generate overflows of the liquid contents when opening them.

An insulated icemaking compartment is provided in the fresh food compartment of a bottom mount refrigerator. The icemaking compartment may be integrally formed with the liner of the fresh food compartment, or alternatively, may be modular for installation anywhere in the fresh food compartment. A removable bin assembly with a front cover normally seals the icemaking compartment to maintain the temperature in the compartment. A cold air duct formed in the rear wall of the refrigerator supplies cold air from the freezer compartment to the icemaking compartment. A return air duct directs a portion of the air from the icemaking compartment back to the freezer compartment. An air vent in the icemaking compartment directs another portion of air into the fresh food compartment. A control system provides for controlling refrigerator functions in a manner that promotes energy efficiency.

A refrigeration device with a refrigerant circuit for cooling at least two cooling chambers. The device has a condenser of the refrigerant circuit configured to liquidize refrigerant, a compressor of the refrigerant circuit compresses refrigerant, a first evaporator of the refrigerant circuit cools a first cooling chamber of the refrigeration device, a second evaporator of the refrigerant circuit cools a second cooling chamber of the refrigeration device, and a multi suction line of the refrigerant circuit connects the condenser with the compressor. The first and second evaporators are positioned on the multi suction line in a consecutive order. The multi suction line has a first capillary tube, a second capillary tube, and a suction pipe. The first capillary tube connects the condenser with the first evaporator, the second capillary tube connects the condenser with the second evaporator, and the suction pipe connects the first and second evaporator with the compressor.

A movable platen cooling apparatus includes: a compressor; a cold head that includes a cooling part; a refrigerator gas supply line that supplies a refrigerant gas from the compressor to the cold head; a refrigerator gas exhaust line that exhausts the refrigerant gas from the cold head to the compressor; a first gas inflow line that is connected to a first movable platen flow path and includes a heat exchange part thermally coupled to the cooling part; a first gas outflow line connected to the first movable platen flow path and merged with the refrigerator gas exhaust line; a second gas inflow line connected to a second movable platen flow path and disposed to be thermally non-coupled with the cooling part; and a second gas outflow line connected to the second movable platen flow path and merged with the refrigerator gas exhaust line.

A refrigerator includes a first freezing cycle in which a first refrigerant circulates and having a first compressor, a first condenser, at least one first expansion mechanism, and at least one first evaporator, the first freezing cycle configured to cool freezing and refrigerating compartments, a freezing compartment sensor, a refrigerating compartment sensor, a second freezing cycle in which a second mixed refrigerant having a lower evaporation temperature than the first refrigerant circulates and having a second compressor, a second condenser, a second expansion mechanism, and a second evaporator, the second freezing cycle configured to cool a deep freezing compartment, a deep freezing compartment sensor, and a controller configured to operate the first freezing cycle and the second freezing cycle independently or simultaneously, thereby more efficiently cooling the freezing and refrigerating compartments and the deep freezing compartment.
