A lighting system for providing uniform bright lighting of products within in a glass door refrigerated cabinet. The lighting system has a frame member with an angled wing extending therefrom that wraps around a side edge of a light-transmitting optical shield, and a LED lighting strip positioned between the frame member and the optical shield. The LED lighting strip has a plurality of spaced-apart LED lights mounted therealong with a coined reflective facet optic mounted around each LED light. The angled wing(s) reflects light emitted laterally outwards from the at least one LED lighting strip such that the light can be re-directed to evenly illuminate products in a refrigerated cabinet. The angled wing(s) also protects a user's fingers from cracking the plastic optical shield which can become brittle in the cool or cold temperatures of the refrigerated cabinet.

A lighting module for a refrigeration appliance has a housing provided with a light outlet. The housing includes a supporting edge surrounding the light outlet and an inner frame disposed along the supporting edge. The inner frame protrudes from the supporting edge in a direction away from the light outlet. The housing further has a light source. The light source includes a light emitting element and a substrate bearing the light emitting element. The light guide plate is supported on the supporting edge and includes a first end surface protruding toward the inner frame. The housing includes a mounting portion located in a space defined by the first end surface of the light guide plate, the supporting edge, and the inner frame. The substrate is mounted on the mounting portion, so that the light emitting element and the first end surface of the light guide plate face each other.

The invention relates to an illumination device comprising a domeshaped, cylindrical lens (7) having an optical focal line (19) and a plurality of light sources (3) arranged along the focal line and configured to emit light during operation. Said lens being disposed to receive and to deflect said light as a light beam having an angle y in a transverse direction, wherein 0′<=.sub.7<=30′. In transversal cross section the cylindrical lens comprises a central portion (21) flanked by a first side portion (23) and a second side portion (25). The illumination device further comprises an axially extending screen (27) disposed adjacent to the first side portion; and an axially extending diffuser (33) provided at the second side portion.

A refrigerator includes a cabinet forming a storage space, a main door that opens and closes the storage space while defining an opening part that is in communication with the storage space, a sub-door mounted to the main door and configured to open and close the opening part, the sub-door including a panel assembly for allowing selective viewing of an inside of the opening part, the injection port is provided at a lower side of the sub-door to direct an insulating foaming solution to a space in the sub-door, a detection device for detecting an operation of a user, a lighting unit inside the refrigerator that turns on based on user operation to allow selective viewing of the inner side of the opening part, and a display unit inside the refrigerator at a position corresponding to the panel.

Proposed is a home appliance in which a reception space defined in the home appliance can be seen from the outside without opening a door through a viewing window. In the home appliance, the viewing window is mounted to the door, and when a user knocks on the door, a knock input by the user is detected and the inside of the reception space is illuminated such that the inside of the reception space can be seen from the outside through the viewing window. Accordingly, a user can see the inside of the reception space by a simple motion without opening the door.

A shelf lighting mechanism has a lamp arranged on the upper front of the shelf, the lamp has a light source and lens, the top of the lens has a concave space for accommodating the light source, a first irradiation part is formed on one side of the inner wall of the concave space, and the light emitting surface of the first irradiation part is arranged to guide light to irradiate the upper area of the shelf; the bottom and the other side of the inner wall of the concave space are formed with a second irradiation part, and the light emitting surface of the second irradiation part is arranged to guide the other part of the light from the light source to irradiate the lower area of the shelf. The upper and lower areas of the shelf can be illuminated simultaneously by one lamp.

Provided is a refrigerator. The refrigerator is characterized by enabling at least a part of a refrigerator door to be selectively transparent by a user's operation, such that the user sees through an inside of the refrigerator while the refrigerator door is closed.

A refrigerator including a storage chamber. The refrigerator also includes a first sidewall and a second sidewall arranged to form at least a portion of both side surfaces of the storage chamber. The refrigerator further includes a light source arranged on the first sidewall to illuminate an inside of the storage chamber. The refrigerator also includes a light guide member provided inside the storage chamber and formed to extend between the first sidewall and the second sidewall to guide light emitted from the light source. The light guide member includes an incident surface arranged to face the first sidewall and an exit surface through which the light guided by the light guide member is emitted to an outside of the light guide member.

A flow control device for controlling an air curtain formed across a display area of a refrigerated display case, the flow control device comprising: a stabilizing beam comprising an elongate outer cover and a carrier; wherein the outer cover forms a continuous boundary which defines a cavity extending along the length of the outer cover; wherein the carrier is slidably received within the cavity along the length of the outer cover; wherein the carrier is provided with a light source and wherein at least a portion of the outer cover is transparent or translucent such that light emitted by the light source is emitted from the outer cover to provide illumination.

The present disclosure provides a rotating lamp, a refrigerator, and a control method for a rotating lamp in a refrigerator. The rotating lamp is disposed in a box having a door and a drawer, the rotating lamp includes a driving device, a transmission mechanism and a lamp box assembly, and the driving device includes an output shaft; the lamp box assembly is rotatably arranged in the box and has a light exit surface; one end of the transmission mechanism is connected to the output shaft, and the other end is connected to the lamp box assembly. When the door is opened or when the drawer (30) is drawn out, the driving device drives the lamp box assembly via the transmission mechanism to rotate the lamp box assembly relative to the box.
