An appliance cabinet includes a wrapper that has sidewalls and define a machine compartment. An attachment feature is coupled to the wrapper proximate the sidewalls. The attachment feature includes horizontal supports and vertical supports that define a lattice structure of the attachment feature, and a selectively removable side access panel is removably coupled to the sidewalls to define at least one access point to the machine compartment.

Provided is a refrigerating or warming apparatus. The refrigerating or warming apparatus may include a cavity or compartment of which at least a portion of a wall is provided as a vacuum adiabatic body, a machine room disposed at a side outside the cavity, a compressor accommodated in the machine room to compress a refrigerator, a first heat exchange module or assembly accommodated in the machine room to allow the refrigerant to be heat-exchanged, a second heat exchange module or assembly accommodated in the cavity to allow the refrigerant to be heat-exchanged, and a machine room cover which covers the machine room to separate air flow passages where an internal air flow and an external air flow have directions opposite to each other.

A refrigerating appliance includes a refrigerating cabinet that has an outer wrapper. A machine compartment is disposed proximate a rear bottom of the refrigerating cabinet. The machine compartment is defined by selectively removable side panels, an inner curved surface of the outer wrapper, and a bottom support plate. A controller is disposed within the machine compartment. Reinforcement segments extend from a planar extent of the outer wrapper to a lip of the bottom support plate.

A refrigerator includes a body, first and second storage compartments and a machine compartment formed in the body, a blower fan disposed in the machine compartment, first and second refrigerating units comprising first and second compressors to compress first and second refrigerants, respectively, first and second condensers to condense the first and second refrigerants, respectively, first and second expansion valves to expand the first and second refrigerants, respectively, and first and second evaporators to evaporate the first and second refrigerants, respectively, the first and second refrigerating units supplying cold air to the first and storage compartments, respectively. The first compressor, the second compressor, and the first condenser are disposed in the machine compartment and are cooled by forcible flow of air caused by the blower fan, and the second condenser is disposed outside the machine compartment and is cooled by natural convection of air.

A refrigerator includes: a cabinet defining a storage space and a machine room that is partitioned from the storage space, the machine room including a compressor and a condenser, a blowing fan provided in the machine room, a guide member configured to guide air from an outside of the machine room into the machine room and discharge air from the machine room to the outside of the machine room, and a deodorizing module that is provided inside the guide member and that is configured to remove an odor from air passing through the guide member.

The attachment feature includes horizontal supports and vertical supports that define a lattice structure of the attachment feature, and a selectively removable side access panel is removably coupled to the sidewalls to define at least one access point to the machine compartment.

An appliance cabinet includes first and second sidewalls. A rear wall is disposed between the first and second sidewalls. A machine compartment is defined by a lower portion of the rear wall. An attachment feature defines openings and is coupled to at least one of the first and second sidewalls. A side access panel is selectively coupled to at least one of the first and second sidewalls via fasteners extending through the openings defined by the attachment feature.
