A second storage compartment is provided in the first storage compartment and a quick cooling module to cool an inside of the second storage compartment is provided, where the quick cooling module heat-exchanges with a refrigerant pipe of the evaporator. The quick cooling module includes a thermal conductive unit in thermal conduction with the refrigerant pipe, and a thermoelectric device having a first surface in thermal conduction with the thermal conductive unit to heat-exchange with the thermal conductive unit when current is supplied and a second surface facing the second storage compartment.

The present invention relates to a refrigerator (1) comprising a body (2) wherein foods and beverages are placed, at least one drawer (3) that is disposed into the body (2) wherein fruits and vegetables are placed, a crisper (5) that is disposed inside the body (2) so as to be almost parallel to the base and that has a cover plate (4) remaining above the drawer (3) when the drawer (3) is placed into the body (2), and a flexible element (6) that is disposed on the crisper (5) and that provides airproofing between the interior of the crisper (5) and the exterior of the crisper (5).

Lighting units for refrigerator drawers and baskets are disclosed. An example refrigerator drawer assembly includes a shelf having a divider, the shelf defining at least a portion of a drawer compartment, first and second drawers disposed beneath the shelf, an elongated light source attached to a bottom surface of the divider, the elongated light source having a plurality of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) along the length of the elongated light source to provide a source of visible light for the first and second drawers.

A countertop freezer and systems and methods for removing moisture from a refrigeration system are provided. In some embodiments, the countertop freezer includes a bin. In some embodiments, the bin includes a removable insert that is adaptable to the type(s) of products to be sold. In some embodiments, the countertop freezer includes a sliding mechanism that causes the bin to slide outward as the door is opened. In some embodiments, the countertop freezer includes a lighting mechanism on the door that is modular/serviceable and shines light at an angle to allow the product to be illuminated both when the door is closed and when the door is opened.

A household refrigeration appliance, in particular a refrigerator or a French-door refrigerator, includes a plurality of image recording modules each having at least one camera sensor. A control unit is connected to the image recording modules. The control unit is configured to output a trigger signal to at least one of the image recording modules, and the at least one image recording module is configured to record at least one image by using at least one camera sensor upon receiving the trigger signal and to transmit corresponding image data to the control unit. A method for recording images of refrigerated goods stored in a household refrigeration appliance is also provided.

A refrigerator may include a body formed with a storage space and a cooling module accommodating space; a cooling module disposed in the cooling module accommodating space and having a heat absorption part and a heat radiating part; a drawer supporter disposed inside the storage space; and a drawer supported by the drawer supporter, and the drawer supporter is formed with an inner passage through which cold air flowing from the heat absorption part passes, and the drawer supporter is formed with a plurality of cold air discharge ports through which cold air of the inner passage is discharged in an opposite direction. Therefore, it is possible to maximize the depth of the storage space in the front-rear direction while minimizing the number of parts, and cool the entire storage space evenly.

Disclosed is a refrigerator which enhances convenience in user identification and retrieval of items and the efficiency of storage and cooling thereof. The refrigerator includes an inner cabinet to define a storage compartment having a front opening, a door to open or close the opening, item storage units arranged in multiple layers, the item storage units being accommodated in the storage compartment and allowing items to be placed thereon, horizontal frames arranged in multiple layers, the horizontal frames respectively supporting the item storage units arranged in multiple layers, a vertical frame coupled to each of the horizontal frames arranged in multiple layers, the vertical frame extending vertically, first rail units arranged in multiple layers, the first rail units respectively supporting the horizontal frames so that the horizontal frames is movable in a front-to-back direction relative to the storage compartment, a link to connect any one of the horizontal frames arranged in multiple layers and the door to each other so as to move the horizontal frames in the front-to-back direction in response to rotation of the door, and a second rail unit located between the item storage unit and the horizontal frame arranged in the same layer so as to movably support the item storage unit in the front-to-back direction.

A domestic refrigerator has a refrigeration compartment and a container which can be accommodated in the refrigeration compartment and has a lower part for receiving products to be refrigerated and a cover that can cover the lower part. The container has an air inlet opening and an air outlet opening that is at a distance from the air inlet opening. The domestic refrigerator also has a controllable air flow adjustment device and is configured to vary a volume flow rate of an air flow, which enters the container from the refrigeration compartment through the air inlet opening, between at least two values by adjusting an adjustment parameter of the air flow adjustment device. Furthermore, a method ventilates the container which is accommodated in the refrigeration compartment and has the air inlet opening and the air outlet opening.

A linear motion mechanism, a drawer assembly, and a storage cabinet, relating to the technical field of linear motion. The linear motion mechanism comprises a rotating wheel around which a flexible cable is wound, the flexible cable being suitable for moving along with rotation of the rotating wheel, and the flexible cable comprising flexible cable sections located on the two sides of the rotating wheel; a rotation driving member which is connected to the rotating wheel and suitable for driving the rotating wheel to rotate; a mounting member, the mounting member being provided with a guide rail, a first fixed pulley being mounted on the mounting member; and a first-stage sliding rail which is suitable for sliding relative to the guide rail.
