A refrigeration appliance includes an inner space, an evaporator assembly extending at a wall of the inner space, a retaining device including a base plate extending between the wall and the evaporator assembly, and protrusions protruding from the wall on a first and a second edge of the base plate. At least the protrusion protruding on the first edge includes an elastic clip that can be deflected out of a position in which it engages with a first outer section of the evaporator assembly into a position in which it releases the outer section. A method for mounting an evaporator assembly on a wall of an inner space of a refrigeration appliance is also provided.

An ice maker for producing and storing ice pieces. The ice maker is mountable to a liner of a fresh food compartment at an intersection of a top wall and a lateral side wall of the liner. The ice maker includes an ice tray for forming ice pieces. An ice bin receives and stores ice pieces produced by the ice tray. A housing contains the ice tray and ice bin. The housing has a first side, a second side, a bottom and a top. A first cavity is formed in the first side and a second cavity is formed in the bottom. A thermal insulation is disposed in the first cavity and the second cavity. The second side of the ice maker housing does not include thermal insulation.

Provided is a refrigerator including a supporting projection to reduce noise created from a rack. The refrigerator includes an outer case, an inner case arranged inside the outer case to define a storeroom, a rack removably arranged in the storeroom, a projection protruding from a side of the inner case, on which to put a side end of the rack, and at least one side supporting projection forming a separation space between the side of the inner case and a side of the rack to prevent the side of the rack from contacting the side of the inner case, wherein the side supporting projection includes a rack contact portion arranged between the side of the rack and the side of the inner case and formed into a curved plane to reduce an area of contact with the side of the rack.

A refrigerator with a slide rail wiring mechanism, comprising a compartment configured to open forward, and a drawer-type door, wherein the compartment comprises a bottom wall, a rear wall and two side walls, and the drawer-type door is provided with an electrical component the slide rail wiring mechanism comprises a cable for supplying power to the electrical component and a first wiring box fixed in the compartment the first wiring box is formed with a first receiving portion and a second receiving portion; the cable comprises a fixed section fixed in the first receiving portion and a movable section that may be at least partially received in the second receiving portion; the second receiving portion is disposed apart from the bottom wall, the second receiving portion comprises a top plate and a bottom plate, and the bottom plate is provided with drainage holes.

A cooling device including a liner defining a freezer compartment, a shelf positioned within the freezer compartment, and an ice maker assembly secured to the shelf. The ice maker assembly including an ice maker configured to produce ice pieces, and an ice maker support frame that supports the ice maker. The ice maker support frame includes a fill cup and an air plenum, the air plenum defining a channel therein and extends between first and second walls of the ice maker support frame. A fan is disposed adjacent the ice maker frame at a location corresponding to the air plenum. The fill cup is configured to receive water from a water fill tube and direct the water to an ice tray of the ice maker.

An engagement assembly, a drawer, and a refrigerator having same. The engagement assembly comprises a first engagement part matching the drawer and a second engagement part matching a refrigerator body; one of the first and second engagement parts is a gear, and the other one is a rack; the rack has a tooth surface that allows the gear to travel; the rack comprises a main rack and an extension rack; when the drawer is in a closed state, the tooth surface has a first stroke length; when the drawer is in an opening process, the extension rack moves to a travel path of the gear so that the tooth surface has a second stroke length; when the drawer is in a closing process, the extension rack is reset the first stroke length is smaller than the second stroke length. The length of the tooth surface increases in the opening process.
