A refrigerator includes a body including a first storage compartment and a second storage compartment; an evaporator provided in the second storage compartment and configured to supply cold air to the first storage compartment and the second storage compartment; an evaporator cover mounted to the body to cover the evaporator and including at least a first return flow path communicably connected to the first storage compartment; and an insulating partition provided between the first storage compartment and the second storage compartment and including a partition return flow path communicably connecting the first storage compartment and the first return flow path.

A refrigerator includes a first storage chamber, a second storage chamber, and a heat exchange chamber therebetween. At least one first inlet is configured to introduce cold air from the first storage chamber into the heat exchange chamber, and at least one second inlet is configured to introduce cold air from the second storage chamber into the heat exchange chamber. The first and second inlets are provided at sides of the refrigerator.

A domestic refrigerator (1) comprises a thermally insulated housing (2), a cold storage compartment (5) and a fresh food compartment (4) contained within the housing (2) and located on top of each other, a refrigerant circuit which comprises an evaporator (29) configured to directly cool the cold storage compartment (5), a first door leaf (18) for closing and opening the fresh food compartment (4), a second door leaf (19) for closing and opening the cold storage compartment (5), a divisional wall (17, 42) separating the cold storage compartment (5) from the fresh food compartment (5), and a air channel system (31, 32) which is configured to allow an air exchange between the cold storage compartment (5) and the fresh food compartment (4).

A refrigerator is proposed. The refrigerator may include a cabinet having a storage compartment (F1, F2), and a barrier (30) dividing the storage compartment (F1, F2) into multiple spaces. In addition, a grille fan assembly 50 may be erected at the rear of the storage compartment (F1), and a blower fan (80) configured to blow cold air may be mounted to the grille fan assembly 50. The grille fan assembly (50) may be provided with the control knob (90), and the control knob (90) may be rotated relative to a rotating shaft configured is the same direction as a rotating shaft of the blower fan (80) such that the amount of the blown air can be controlled.

A refrigerator having a cool air circulation unit for directly supplying heat-exchanged cool air to a storage compartment is disclosed. The cool air circulation unit supplies and discharges the cool air, which has been heat-exchanged in an evaporator, to and from the storage compartment through a flow passage provided inside a partition.

A refrigerator damper system employs a fluidic valve providing switching of air between refrigerated compartments without the need for a movable valve plate such as can be obstructed by ice. In one embodiment, a bidirectional fan provides switching from a first compartment to a second compartment and then from a second compartment to a first compartment with change of fan direction.

A refrigerator includes an evaporator inclined in a left-right direction and a defrosting water tray provided below the evaporator to collect defrosting water, and having inclined surfaces corresponding to a shape of the evaporator.

A refrigeration apparatus having an external housing cabinet an inner storage cabinet having a first compartment intended to be cooled at a first temperature, and a second compartment intended to be cooled at a second temperature lower than the first temperature and separated from the first compartment by a partition wall. The first and second compartments and partition wall are defined by a single-piece plastic liner. At least one duct allows air to pass from the first compartment to the second compartment, and at least one fan is provided to force air from the first compartment to the second compartment through duct. At least one evaporator is provided to cool down the air flow before its emission into the second compartment or when it is flowing into the second compartment. A method for producing such a refrigeration apparatus is also provided.
