MULLION BRACKET
A bracket for attaching a mullion to a frame includes a mullion-engaging portion that couples with the mullion, a frame-engaging portion that couples with a frame segment, a middle portion between the mullion-engaging portion and the frame-engaging portion, and a flange projecting from the middle portion. The flange couples with one end of the mullion such that air flow between an interior space of the mullion and the other side of the flange is inhibited.
REINFORCEMENT ASSEMBLY FOR AN INSULATED STRUCTURE
An insulated structure for an appliance includes an outer wrapper and an inner liner. A mullion extends across the inner liner. A reinforcement assembly is coupled to the outer wrapper. The reinforcement assembly includes a perimeter frame that is disposed on a peripheral edge of the outer wrapper and a central plate central plate that is proximate the mullion. At least one door is hingedly coupled to the outer wrapper.
Refrigerator
A refrigerator is provided. The refrigerator may include a main body having a storage compartment, a first door rotatably installed at a first side of the main body to open and close a first portion of the storage compartment, and a second door rotatably installed at a second side of the main body to open and close a second portion of the storage compartment. A first camera may be installed at the first door to take a picture of an interior of the first storage compartment during rotation of the first door, and a second camera may be installed at the second door to take a picture of the interior of the first storage compartment during rotation of the second door. A controller may combine plural pictures taken by the first camera and the second camera into a single corrected image of a region of the first compartment spanning from the first door to the second door.
Cooling device having an improved sealing assembly
A cooling device includes a cabinet body that encloses a compartment, a door operatively associated with the cabinet body to selectively enclose the compartment, a heat source to heat transfer, a first magnetic element in contact with or attached to a front flange of the cabinet body and a sealing assembly for sealing an area between the cabinet body and the door of the cooling device. The heat source and the first magnetic member are at least partly in contact with each other in such a way that condensation problems thereof are effectively reduced.
Mullion bracket
A bracket for attaching a mullion to a frame includes a mullion-engaging portion that couples with the mullion, a frame-engaging portion that couples with a frame segment, a middle portion between the mullion-engaging portion and the frame-engaging portion, and a flange projecting from the middle portion. The flange couples with one end of the mullion such that air flow between an interior space of the mullion and the other side of the flange is inhibited.
HOUSEHOLD APPLIANCE
A household appliance includes a storage space. A partition plate located in the storage space includes a first surface, a second surface, a first end, and a second end. A first connecting structure includes a first projecting portion and a first slot. The first slot includes a first slot section and a second slot section being in communication with the first slot section and extending in a front-back direction. The first slot section has an inlet opening to the first surface and/or the second surface. The first projecting portion is adapted to enter the first slot section through the inlet and then enter the second slot section. The household appliance is therefore easy to assemble.
Refrigerator including a drawer supporter having a cold air discharge port
A refrigerator may include a body formed with a storage space and a cooling module accommodating space; a cooling module disposed in the cooling module accommodating space and having a heat absorption part and a heat radiating part; a drawer supporter disposed inside the storage space; and a drawer supported by the drawer supporter, and the drawer supporter is formed with an inner passage through which cold air flowing from the heat absorption part passes, and the drawer supporter is formed with a plurality of cold air discharge ports through which cold air of the inner passage is discharged in an opposite direction. Therefore, it is possible to maximize the depth of the storage space in the front-rear direction while minimizing the number of parts, and cool the entire storage space evenly.
Reinforcement assembly for an insulated structure
An appliance includes a vacuum insulated structure that has a peripheral edge including a wrapper and a liner. A mullion is operably coupled to the vacuum insulated structure. A reinforcement assembly is operably coupled to the vacuum insulated structure and the mullion. The reinforcement assembly includes a perimeter frame that is operably coupled to the peripheral edge of the vacuum insulated structure, and a central plate that is operably coupled to the mullion. A door is operably coupled to the reinforcement assembly.
Refrigerator
A structure of an ice making compartment of a side by side type refrigerator to enhance ice making efficiency and to reduce energy consumption. The ice making compartment may be separately provided between a refrigerating compartment and a freezing compartment and be insulated from the refrigerating compartment and the freezing compartment. A portion of a refrigerant pipe is inserted into the inside of the ice making compartment so as to directly cool down the ice making compartment. A front opening of the ice making compartment can be closed by an ice bucket, and the ice bucket can be inserted into or drawn from the ice making compartment with being accessible without opening a refrigerating compartment door and a freezing compartment door.
Water prefilling assembly for use in a refrigerating appliance
A fluid delivery system for an appliance includes a fluid line in selective communication with a fluid source. A shelf defines a fill zone positioned below an underside of the shelf. A shelf spigot is coupled with the fluid line and disposed proximate the underside of the shelf and over the fill zone. A fluid level sensor is positioned in communication with the fill zone. The fluid level sensor is also in communication with a controller that regulates a flow of fluid through the shelf spigot.
