A refrigerator includes a cabinet, in which a storage space is defined, and a door configured to open and close the storage space. The door includes a door body and a panel assembly mounted in front of the door body. The panel assembly includes a lighting device configured to irradiate light, a panel which is configured to define a front surface of the door and through which light is transmitted, a light guide plate provided behind the panel to guide the light irradiated from the lighting device to the panel, and an upper bracket provided above the panel to define a top surface of the panel assembly. The light guide plate extends more upward than an upper end of the panel, and an extending upper end of the light guide plate is accommodated in the upper bracket.

A household appliance, in particular a beverage bottle storage cabinet, has a beverage bottle receiving space, which is delimited by an upper wall. An illuminating device illuminates the beverage bottle receiving space. The upper wall has at least one light transmission opening through which light of a light module of the illuminating device can be radiated into the beverage bottle receiving space. A distance adapter adjoins the light transmission opening. The distance adapter spaces the light module from an underside of the upper wall that delimits the beverage bottle receiving space outside the beverage bottle receiving space. The distance adapter allows light from the light module to be directed to the light transmission opening.

A refrigerator includes a cabinet, a door configured to open/close the cabinet, an outer plate defining a front surface of the door and having an opening formed therein to pass through the door, a door liner defining a rear surface of the door, lighting members configured to illuminate storage spaces of the door and the cabinet, a transparent panel assembly mounted to shield the opening and allowing the storage spaces to be selectively seen according to an ON/OFF state of the lighting members, an insulator filled between the outer plate and the door liner, and a blocking part arranged inside the door along a periphery of the transparent panel assembly and detachably coupled to a peripheral surface of the transparent panel assembly to fix the transparent panel assembly.

A display case door having an insulated panel assembly, a support plate, an electronic display assembly, and a hanger bracket. The insulated panel assembly has a door frame that extends about and is coupled to the insulated panel assembly. The support plate is coupled to a top rail of the door frame and has a least one pin. The electronic display assembly is coupled to the door frame. The hanger bracket is coupled to a top surface of the electronic display assembly and has a slot sized to accept the pin. The electronic display assembly is at least partially supported in the door frame by the support plate and the hanger bracket.

A method includes applying a monolithic transparent substrate for separating a chamber cooled to a temperature of 0 to 4° C. from an ambient atmosphere, wherein a face of the monolithic transparent substrate in contact with the cooled air is provided with a low-emissivity layer, and another face of the monolithic transparent substrate in contact with the ambient atmosphere is provided with an anti-condensation layer

A refrigerator includes a door with a transparent display assembly that includes a front panel defining at least a portion of a front surface of the door, a touch sensor disposed on a rear surface of the front panel to recognize touch manipulation, a rear panel defining at least a portion of a rear surface of the door, an insulation coating layer provided on a surface of the rear panel by a metal oxide to block heat from the outside, an outer spacer disposed between the front panel and the rear panel to provide a sealed space between the front panel and the rear panel, a display disposed in the sealed space, a light guide plate spaced apart from the display to brighten up the display, and a spacer supporting the light guide plate and maintaining a distance between the display and the light guide plate.

The invention features a refrigerator cabinet door frame. The frame includes a thermally conductive outer frame, a thermally insulating inner frame member, and a sealing plate. The outer frame member includes a forward end having an outer surface that is disposed outside of a refrigerated cabinet with the frame mounted, and a rearward end defining a joint. The inner frame member includes a first end retained in the joint, and a second end. The sealing plate includes a first edge coupled to the outer frame member at the rearward end, forward of the joint, a second edge supported by the second end of the inner frame member, and a thermally conductive sealing surface. The first edge of the sealing plate is coupled to the outer frame member such that the sealing surface and the outer surface of the outer frame member together form a continuous heat transfer path.

A refrigerated display cabinet includes a cabinet body, a refrigerated space arranged within an interior of the cabinet body, and a door operably coupled to the cabinet body to selectively seal the refrigerated space. The door is movable between a closed position and an open position. A baffle is operably coupled to the door and is movable between an extended configuration. When the door is in the open position, the baffle is in the extended configuration.

Disclosed is a display module including a transparent display panel and a frame to fix a side of the transparent display panel, wherein the frame has a communication unit to receive data from the outside, a controller to process the received data and to output a drive command corresponding to the processed data and a display drive unit to drive the transparent display panel in response to the drive command from the controller. A display system includes a system body and a display module detachably mounted in the system body.

The present disclosure provides a swing door system for use with a freezer device, including two adjacent swing doors and at least one mullion in contact with the swing doors. Each swing door includes a transparent pane and a non-transparent area, with each non-transparent area proximal to the mullion when the swing doors are in a closed position. The non-transparent areas and the mullion define a non-transparent region. In a plurality of horizontal see-through angles, a view through the transparent panes is not totally blocked by the non-transparent region. The horizontal see-through angle is measured with respect to the plane in which the swing doors are arranged when the swing doors are in the closed position. When a width of at least one of the swing doors is in the range of 500 mm to 780 mm, the plurality of horizontal see-through angles ranges from 6° to 174°, preferably 5° to 175°, and more preferably 4° to 176°. When a width of at least one of the swing doors is in the range of greater than 780 mm and equal to or lower than 1000 mm, the plurality of horizontal see-through angles ranges from 5° to 175°, preferably 4° to 176°, and more preferably 3° to 177°. A freezer device comprising a swing door system is also described herein.
