A refrigerator including a housing mounted at a rear surface of a door to define a storage space of food, a basket disposed inside the housing, a duct extending to the housing from one side of an evaporator to supply cold air generated by the evaporator into the storage space of the housing, and a fan assembly coupled to the duct to allow the cold air to be forcibly supplied.

A refrigerator includes a cold air supply device received in an insulating partition that defines a storage compartment into upper and lower storage compartments. As cold air is supplied into the storage compartment below the insulating partition through the cold air supply device, the refrigerator has enhanced productivity and interior volume efficiency.

A refrigerator including a housing mounted at a rear surface of a door to define a storage space of food, a basket disposed inside the housing, a duct extending to the housing from one side of an evaporator to supply cold air generated by the evaporator into the storage space of the housing, and a fan assembly coupled to the duct to allow the cold air to be forcibly supplied.

A cooling appliance includes a storage compartment for receiving goods to be cooled, and an air duct assembly in fluid communication with the storage compartment. The air duct assembly includes at least one air duct for suctioning the cool air from the storage compartment. A sensing element senses the temperature of the cool air of the storage compartment. The air duct has a first duct housing part with an air suctioning entrance opening through which the cool air enters into the air duct, and an external second duct housing part on which the sensing element is provided. The external second duct housing part is configured to be selectively connected to the first duct housing part.

Provided in the present application are an air duct system and a refrigeration appliance provided having the same. The air duct system comprises a drying system and a cooling system arranged in cooperation with each other, the cooling system has an evaporator and an air return port and an air supply port arranged on the two sides of the evaporator, and the drying system is disposed between the air return port and the evaporator, and comprises an air compressor and an air storage tank connected to each other; the air discharged by the air return port passes in sequence through the air compressor and the air storage tank and then flows to the evaporator, so that the air passing through the evaporator is dried, avoiding the problems of frosting and low efficiency.

A refrigerator appliance may include a cabinet, a door, a sealed cooling system, and an ice cream unit. The door may include a door liner defining an icebox compartment. The door may include a chilled air supply opening and a chilled air return opening spaced apart from the chilled air supply opening. The ice cream unit may be disposed within the icebox compartment. The ice cream unit may include a freezing tank, a rotatable auger extending into the freezing tank, a tank jacket, and a unit duct or support base. The tank jacket may receive the freezing tank and define a cooling passage extending about the freezing tank from a jacket inlet to a jacket outlet. The jacket outlet may be open to the icebox compartment to exhaust air from the cooling passage to the icebox compartment.

A method of using a refrigerated appliance can include regulating a temperature of a first insulated enclosure of a first refrigerated portion of the appliance within a first predetermined temperature range, the appliance including the first refrigerated portion and a second refrigerated portion positioned below the first refrigerated portion; moving a closure device of the first refrigerated portion from an open position to a closed position, the closure device configured to selectively cover and limit leakage of air from an ambient environment to and from a second insulated enclosure of the second refrigerated portion; and adjusting a predetermined temperature range of the first insulated enclosure by a predetermined offset value based on a sensor signaling that the closure device is in the closed position.

A refrigerator includes: a main body; a storage compartment provided in the main body; and an air duct provided in the storage compartment and configured to discharge air into the storage compartment, wherein the air duct may include: a front panel having an assembly groove formed at upper portion of a front surface of the front panel; an air flow path part provided at a rear surface of the front panel; an air duct cover including an upper portion inserted into the assembly groove and a lower portion attached to the front panel; and a fixing member configured to detachably attach the air duct to the front panel.

A refrigerator includes an inner case defining a storage chamber, a door disposed at a front portion of the inner case and defining a storage space therein, a cool air distribution device disposed inside the inner case and defining a box inlet portion configured to receive cool air, a multi-duct disposed in the inner case and defining discharge holes configured to discharge a first portion of cool air in the cool air distribution device to the storage chamber, and a duct assembly that extends from the cool air distribution device toward the door and that is configured to carry a second portion of cool air in the cool air distribution device. The inner case defines a case inlet at the front portion of the inner case, and the case inlet is configured to communicate with the duct assembly and supply the second portion of cool air to the storage chamber.

A refrigerator includes a cold air supply duct that branches to two independent cold air supply flow paths such that the cold air supply duct supplies cold air for two independent partitioned storages.
