A refrigerator may be installed in a storage space defined by a wall of an object and includes a contact mechanism to bring the refrigerator into contact with the wall.

A refrigerator includes a main body having one or more storage spaces; one or more doors, each configured to open and close at least one of the storage space(s); one or more shelves in the storage space(s), configured to store or support food and having a plate or substantially planar form and a predetermined thickness; a cool air supply device configured to supply cool air and/or to maintain the storage space(s) at a predetermined temperature; and a multi-duct including a first cool air discharge port configured to receive the cool air from the cool air supply device, provide the cool air to the storage space(s), and/or discharge the cool air. The shelf includes a body including a flow path therein through which the cool air may flow. The body has a first side including a cool air inlet connected to the first cool air discharge port, configured to introduce the cool air into the flow path, and a second side including a third cool air discharge port configured to discharge the cool air from the flow path to the storage space(s).

A refrigerator may include: a refrigerator compartment, a convertible compartment, an evaporator disposed in the convertible compartment; and a grill pan assembly forming a space where the evaporator is disposed by dividing the inside of the convertible compartment. The grill pan assembly may include an insulating member, a convertible compartment fan, a refrigerator compartment fan, and an opening device formed at the insulating member from the convertible compartment channel to the refrigerator compartment channel.

A refrigerator includes a cooling/heating chamber capable of cooling and heating foods. The cooling/heating chamber is divided into a heating zone that is a space where foods to be heated are placed, and a non-heating zone that is a space continuous with the heating zone where foods not to be heated are placed. The refrigerator further includes an oscillation electrode and a counter electrode that are arranged so as to face each other with the heating zone in between, and an oscillating unit that applies an AC voltage to between the oscillation electrode and the counter electrode.

A refrigerator includes an outer case forming the exterior of a main body, an inner case disposed inside the outer case to form a storage compartment, an upper duct including an upper outlet to discharge cold air downward toward the storage compartment, and disposed in the inner case to form an upper flow path to supply cold air to the upper outlet, a rear duct including a rear flow path configured to guide the cold air to the upper flow path, and a rear outlet configured to discharge cold air from the rear flow path into the storage compartment, a light emitting diode (LED) module coupled to the upper duct to emit light toward the storage compartment and including a plurality of LEDs, and a reflective cover disposed on a rear side of the storage compartment to be coupled to the rear duct and reflecting light from the LED module.

A refrigerator includes an outer case, an inner case coupled to the outer case and equipped with a storeroom, a heat exchanger disposed adjacent to the storeroom to supply cold air, and a front cover defining one side of the storeroom. The front cover includes at least one end having a recessed portion that forms a cold air supply port to supply cold air supplied from the heat exchanger into the storeroom.

A refrigerator includes a cabinet defining a storage space, a door configured to open and close at least a portion of the storage space, and an evaporator configured to generate cold air. The refrigerator also includes a first ice maker provided in the door, a second ice maker provided in the storage space and configured to be covered by the door when the door is closed, a first cold air guide configured to guide the cold air to the first ice maker, and a second cold air guide configured to guide the cold air to the second ice maker.

A refrigerator is provided. The refrigerator includes a body having a storage compartment, an ice making device, and an ice bucket to store the generated ice. The ice bucket includes an ice bucket body, an ice storage space inside the ice bucket body, and a spacing member to allow ice to be spaced apart from the ice bucket body toward the ice storage space to secure a flow path of cool air, so that the cool air smoothly flows inside the ice bucket body. A full-ice detecting sensor having an emitter and a receiver to receive optical signals is provided. A control unit determines a full-ice status by receiving an output value of signals received from the full-ice detecting sensor.

An appliance ice-making compartment includes a housing which defines an inlet aperture and an outlet aperture. A first ice tray is disposed at a first height within the housing. A second ice tray is disposed at a second height within the housing where the first height is closer to a top of the housing compared to the second height. The second ice tray is closer to the inlet aperture compared to the first ice tray. An inlet duct is in fluid communication with the inlet aperture and configured to direct air toward the first ice tray and the second ice tray.

A refrigerator including a refrigerator compartment; a freezer compartment; an ice compartment disposed in the refrigerator compartment; an ice maker assembly disposed in the ice compartment, the ice maker assembly including an ice maker tray/evaporator having an evaporator cooling tube which is in direct contact with the ice maker tray portion; an ice bucket for storing ice disposed in the ice compartment; and an air handler/auger motor assembly disposed at a rear portion of the ice compartment behind the ice bucket. The air handler/auger motor assembly includes an air passage having a fan disposed therein. An inlet of the fan communicates with an airflow passage under the ice maker tray/evaporator, such that the fan creates a suction and draws cool air from the ice maker tray/evaporator and discharges the cool air through the air passage and to the ice bucket to prevent any ice in the ice bucket from melting.
