摘要:
A refrigerator has a refrigerator compartment, a freezer compartment, and a low-temperature storage chamber formed in the refrigerator compartment and having a temperature lower than that of the refrigerator compartment. The refrigerator includes a compressor, a condenser, a first throttling device, a channel control valve, a refrigerator cooling unit, and a freezer cooling unit connected in series to form a refrigerating cycle. The refrigerator cooling unit and the freezer cooling unit are accommodated in the refrigerator compartment and the freezer compartment, respectively. The refrigerator also includes a second throttling device connected in parallel with the refrigerator cooling unit, a first air fan for sending cold air heat-exchanged by the refrigerator cooling unit to the refrigerator compartment, a second air fan for sending cold air heat-exchanged by the freezer cooling unit to the freezer compartment, a suction duct for introducing air inside the refrigerator compartment to the refrigerator cooling unit, a discharge duct for introducing air cooled by the refrigerator cooling unit into the refrigerator compartment and into the low-temperature storage chamber, and an electrically-operated damper accommodated in the discharge damper. When the electrically-operated damper is opened, an amount of air to be introduced into the low-temperature storage chamber is greater than an amount of air to be introduced into the refrigerator compartment.
摘要:
A bottom-freezer refrigerator comprises a generally rectangular box-like refrigerator housing including a top division and a bottom division with an adiabatic partition wall intervening between the top and bottom divisions. The top division has a refrigerator chamber and a crisper chamber both defined therein. The bottom division has a freezer compartment defined therein. The bottom-freezer refrigerator of the structure described above also comprises a first cooler provided in the top division at a location spaced from a rear wall portion of the crisper chamber, a first circulating fan disposed in the vicinity of the first cooler, a second cooler provided in the bottom division, and a second circulating fan disposed in the vicinity of the second cooler. The refrigerator chamber and the crisper chamber are cooled by the first cooler in cooperation with the first circulating fan, whereas the freezer compartment is cooled by the second cooler in cooperation with the second circulating fan.
