A fan assembly for isolating the vibration of a fan within an appliance is provided herein. The fan assembly may include an elastomeric band between the fan and a mount for an air distribution channel, preventing contact between the components and the accompanying direct translation of the fan's vibration. The elastomeric band may include first and second slots which accommodate retaining members or other elements of the fan and the mount, the slots being separated from one another so as to prevent contact of the fan and mount.

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 a duct arranged to partition an inner space of a storage chamber body into a storage chamber and an air flow channel, wherein the duct has an ejection hole defined therein; a roll-bond evaporator disposed in the air flow channel, wherein the roll-bond evaporator has a top and a bottom, a left end and a right end; a blowing fan configured to draw air from the storage chamber to blow the air into the air flow channel; and a defrost sensor closer to one of the top and bottom than the other of the top and the bottom, wherein said one is closer to the blowing fan than the other, wherein the sensor is closer to one of the left end and the right end than the other of the left end and the right end.

An axial fan includes an impeller, a motor, and a housing. The impeller is configured to rotate about a rotation axis extending in a vertical direction; a motor configured to rotationally drive the impeller. The housing is disposed radially outside the impeller and the motor. An inner wall surface of the housing includes a groove recessed radially outward and extending in the vertical direction. At least a first end of the groove in the vertical direction extends to one end of the housing in the vertical direction.

To provide an ice making device including an ice making tray, a drive unit configured to turn over the ice making tray, a frame including a frame body, the frame configured to support the ice making tray, and a fan motor configured to send wind to the ice making tray. The frame includes a block unit configured to contact a part of the ice making tray turning over to partially disturb the turning over of the ice making tray, and the fan motor is fixed only to a first frame part including one of a plurality of frame parts constituting sides surrounding a periphery of the ice making tray in a plan view of the frame.

An axial fan according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure includes an impeller, a motor, and a housing. The impeller is configured to rotate about a rotation axis extending in a vertical direction. The motor is configured to rotationally drive the impeller. The housing is disposed radially outside the impeller and the motor. In a region overlapping in the vertical direction with the impeller, an inner wall surface of the housing includes at least one first wall having a narrow gap with a radially outer edge of the impeller and at least one second wall having a wide gap with the radially outer edge of the impeller.

A refrigerator includes a fresh food compartment, a freezer compartment and a refrigeration system a freezer evaporator and an evaporator fan configured to direct a flow of cooling air over the freezer evaporator and into at least the fresh food compartment, wherein the evaporator fan includes at least one blade, with the at least one fan blade having an outer surface provided with a hydrophobic coating to reduce dehydration of food items in the fresh food compartment.

A cold insulation container includes: a cold insulation storage including a coolant vessel; a circulating air fan that causes cold air from the coolant vessel to circulate in the cold insulation storage; a thermoelectric generating module attached to an outer surface of the coolant vessel; and a temperature controller that adjusts a temperature in the cold insulation storage. A temperature difference between the coolant vessel and circulating cold air in the cold insulation storage causes the temperature controller and the circulating air fan to be driven by thermoelectric power generated by the thermoelectric generating module.

A cooling and heating cabinet according to an embodiment of the present invention may comprise: an inner case having a storage space provided therein; an outer case which is disposed surrounding the inner case and forms an insulation cavity between the outer case and the inner case; a thermoelectric element module disposed in the insulation cavity; a separation panel disposed inside the inner case and having a plurality of through-holes; an agitating part disposed between the separation panel and the bottom surface of the inner case, and having a magnet and an agitating fan that rotates with the magnet; and a magnetic field-generating part disposed outside the outer case, and generating a magnetic field to rotate the magnet.

A refrigerator a duct arranged to partition an inner space of a storage chamber body into a storage chamber and an air flow channel, wherein the duct has an ejection hole defined therein; a roll-bond evaporator disposed in the air flow channel, wherein the roll-bond evaporator has a top and a bottom, a left end and a right end; a blowing fan configured to draw air from the storage chamber to blow the air into the air flow channel; and a defrost sensor closer to one of the top and bottom than the other of the top and the bottom, wherein said one is closer to the blowing fan than the other, wherein the sensor is closer to one of the left end and the right end than the other of the left end and the right end.
