A refrigerator appliance and air duct are provided herein. The refrigerator appliance may include a cabinet, an internal liner, and an air duct. The internal liner may be positioned within the cabinet and define a chilled chamber. The air duct may include a duct body and a plurality of resilient fingers. The duct body may extend between a first end to a second end. The duct body may define a fluid exchange path between the first end and the second end. The duct body may further define a first fluid opening at the first end in fluid communication with the fluid exchange path. The plurality of resilient fingers may be radially-spaced apart about the fluid opening. The plurality of resilient fingers may extend integrally from the duct body against the internal liner at the first end of the duct body.

A refrigerator includes a cabinet defining a storage compartment and a door movably coupled to the cabinet for providing selective access to at least a portion of the storage compartment. The refrigerator includes an evaporator unit and an air duct providing fluid communication between the evaporator unit and the storage compartment. The refrigerator includes a partition member coupled to the cabinet that divides the storage compartment into a first compartment having a first volume and a second compartment having a second volume. The partition member is movable between a first position and a second position to adjust the first and second volumes. The partition member can include an air channel extending through the partition member that is in fluid communication with at least one of the first and second compartments. The partition member can include a baffle member that is adjustable to adjustably direct air passing through the air channel.

A refrigerator and a method of control thereof, whereby after driving of a compressor and a blower fan is stopped as temperatures of a refrigeration compartment and a freezer compartment are in a satisfactory state, opening/closing operations of a damper are repeatedly performed, so that cold air in the freezer compartment is supplied into the refrigeration compartment. Alternatively, if the temperature of the refrigeration compartment reaches an upper limit temperature, the repeated opening/closing operations of the damper are started. The repeated opening/closing operations of the damper are performed until the temperature of the refrigeration compartment reaches a lower limit temperature, so that a cooling operation of the refrigeration compartment is performed only once while the compressor is being driven.

A refrigerator includes a heat exchange chamber, first inlets arranged on side surfaces of a first storage chamber and configured to introduce cold air in the first storage chamber into the heat exchange chamber, and second inlets arranged on side surfaces of a second storage chamber and configured to introduce cold air in the second storage chamber into the heat exchange chamber.

A refrigerator includes an evaporator inclined in a left-right direction and a defrosting water tray provided below the evaporator to collect defrosting water, and having inclined surfaces corresponding to a shape of the evaporator.

A refrigerator is proposed. The refrigerator may include a cabinet having a storage compartment (F1, F2), and a barrier (30) dividing the storage compartment (F1, F2) into multiple spaces. In addition, a grille fan assembly 50 may be erected at the rear of the storage compartment (F1), and a blower fan (80) configured to blow cold air may be mounted to the grille fan assembly 50. The grille fan assembly (50) may be provided with the control knob (90), and the control knob (90) may be rotated relative to a rotating shaft configured in the same direction as a rotating shaft of the blower fan (80) such that the amount of the blown air can be controlled.

A refrigerator includes a body including a first storage compartment and a second storage compartment; an evaporator provided in the second storage compartment and configured to supply cold air to the first storage compartment and the second storage compartment; an evaporator cover mounted to the body to cover the evaporator and including at least a first return flow path communicably connected to the first storage compartment; and an insulating partition provided between the first storage compartment and the second storage compartment and including a partition return flow path communicably connecting the first storage compartment and the first return flow path.
