To configure existing drawers as evacuable drawers of a vacuum drawer device, a cover for installation in the drawer body can be used. The cover evacuates at the drawer interior with an evacuation system, so that the interior is evacuated when the drawer is closed and ventilated before the drawer is opened. The cover is airtight, is profiled in such that evacuation with a controller, a pump and a valve are fixedly integrated in at least one recess in the cover and the cover has at least one air channel leading into the inside of the cover or, respectively, into the at least one recess, with the air channel operatively connected to the evacuation system such that when the cover is placed onto the drawer, air from the interior can be pumped out of the interior, the inside of the cover interior or, respectively, the at least one recess through the air duct.

A method for monitoring a drawer interior of a vacuum drawer device when the lid is supported by the drawer airtight and closed, includes: periodic measurement of the relative humidity with a humidity sensor arranged in the path of a dehumidifying channel in the lid or, respectively, the drawer interior; comparison of the measured relative humidity with an upper threshold; and as soon as the measured relative humidity is above the upper threshold, opening the valve and inducting a ventilator arranged in a recess or in the path of a dehumidifying channel in the lid. Fresh air is sucked through an air inlet opening, circulated, and thereafter released again from the dehumidifying channel and the drawer interior communicating therewith, until the relative humidity reaches a lower threshold measured by the humidity sensor. Then the valve is closed, the ventilator is stopped, and the controller switches into the humidity monitoring mode.

A refrigerator appliance includes a cabinet with a fresh food chamber, a freezer chamber, and an aging chamber each defined in the cabinet. The refrigerator appliance also includes an aging chamber door mounted to the cabinet and movable between a closed position and an open position. A method of operating the refrigerator appliance includes receiving a meat aging input from a user interface of the refrigerator appliance and moving a lock configured to retain the aging chamber door in the closed position to a locked position whereby the aging chamber door is retained in the closed position in response to the meat aging input. The method also includes activating a dedicated humidity control system in fluid communication with the aging chamber and fluidly isolated from the fresh food chamber and the freezer chamber for an aging time after moving the lock to the locked position.

To configure existing drawers as evacuable drawers of a vacuum drawer device, a cover for installation in the drawer body can be used. The cover evacuates at the drawer interior with an evacuation system, so that the interior is evacuated when the drawer is closed and ventilated before the drawer is opened. The cover is airtight, is profiled in such that evacuation with a controller, a pump and a valve are fixedly integrated in at least one recess in the cover and the cover has at least one air channel leading into the inside of the cover or, respectively, into the at least one recess, with the air channel operatively connected to the evacuation system such that when the cover is placed onto the drawer, air from the interior can be pumped out of the interior, the inside of the cover interior or, respectively, the at least one recess through the air duct.

A domestic refrigerator has a refrigeration compartment and a container which can be accommodated in the refrigeration compartment and has a lower part for receiving products to be refrigerated and a cover that can cover the lower part. The container has an air inlet opening and an air outlet opening that is at a distance from the air inlet opening. The domestic refrigerator also has a controllable air flow adjustment device and is configured to vary a volume flow rate of an air flow, which enters the container from the refrigeration compartment through the air inlet opening, between at least two values by adjusting an adjustment parameter of the air flow adjustment device. Furthermore, a method ventilates the container which is accommodated in the refrigeration compartment and has the air inlet opening and the air outlet opening.

A method for improving nutrients in food ingredient, and a control apparatus, a storage cabinet, an electronic device and a computer-readable storage medium are provided. The method comprises the following steps: controlling, on the basis of a closure signal of a storage compartment, a light source to be turned on; after a first preset duration, acquiring the humidity of the storage compartment; and if the humidity of the storage compartment is greater than a target humidity, controlling a humidity control fan to operate in a normal mode, and turning off the light source after a second preset duration. After a light source is controlled to be turned on on the basis of a closure signal of a storage compartment, a humidity control fan can be controlled to operate in a normal mode when it is determined, according to the humidity of the storage compartment.

A control method for a refrigerator and a refrigerator are provided. The refrigerator includes a compartment, an evaporator, and a heating module. The method includes: acquiring a current temperature of the compartment; and adjusting an operating power of the heating module according to the current temperature, so that the heating module heats the compartment to a target temperature according to the operating power, where different temperature ranges correspond to different operating powers.

A refrigerator and a dehumidification control method thereof to effectively perform both temperature compensation and dehumidification so as to prevent formation of dewdrops in a refrigerating compartment of the refrigerator. The control method includes detecting a temperature of outside air around the refrigerator to judge whether or not the detected temperature corresponds to a low-temperature mode requiring dehumidification, heating a refrigerating compartment by operating a refrigerating compartment heater and a refrigerating compartment fan for dehumidification if the low-temperature mode is judged, cooling the refrigerating compartment by operating a compressor while continuously operating the refrigerating compartment fan, and simultaneously cooling and heating the refrigerating compartment to enable simultaneous implementation of temperature compensation by heating of the refrigerating compartment and dehumidification by cooling of the refrigerating compartment.

A container refrigeration device aims to prevent low temperature damage to freight in a container. The container refrigeration device includes: a temperature controlling section (101) configured to perform, in a switchable manner, first temperature control under which a temperature inside the container (C) is controlled based on a blown air temperature (Tss) and second temperature control under which the temperature inside the container (C) is controlled based on a suction air temperature (Trs) during dehumidification operation; and a control switching section (103) configured to switch the first temperature control to the second temperature control when the blown air temperature (Tss) is higher than the suction air temperature (Trs) during the dehumidification operation in which part of a refrigerant discharged from a compressor (30) is allowed to flow into a reheat heat exchanger (83).
