Through such a configuration, it is possible to selectively mount the guide unit and shelf on the inside of the storage chamber.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a cool air supply structure of a storage receptacle for a refrigerator. The present invention comprises one or more box casings detachably installed in a refrigerating chamber, each box casing having a mounting space and a channel through which cool air flows, the cool air being supplied from a cool air supply source through a cool air supply port formed in a side surface of the refrigerating chamber; and one or more storage receptacles, each storage receptacle being withdrawably installed in the mounting space, wherein food accommodated in an accommodation space provided in the storage receptacle is indirectly cooled by the cool air that flows through the channel. According to the present invention, there is an advantageous effect in that the food accommodated in a plurality of storage receptacles can be stored to be fresher by indirectly cooling the food and simultaneously the supply of cool air can be controlled depending on the use or not of the storage receptacles.

Abstract: A deodorizer for a refrigerator is formed of a mesh type material having fine multiple pores through which the air in the refrigerator passes and the material having multiple pleats so as to enlarge a surface area coming in contact with the air, thereby maximizing a surface area coming in contact with the cool air and accordingly, improving deodorizing performance.

Abstract: An ice tray assembly for a refrigerator is provided, which comprises: a case; at least one ice tray disposed in the case; a water box provided at a lateral surface of the ice trays to supply water to the ice trays; and at least one discharge hole provided at the water box corresponding to the number of the ice tray. According to the present invention, the ice tray assembly for the refrigerator is capable of supplying water to the plurality of ice trays at once, of easily supplying water to the ice trays disposed at an upper layer portion in general, as the water box is disposed at the lateral surface of the ice trays, and of uniformly supplying water to each of the plurality of the ice trays.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a refrigerator having an air-cleaner. The present invention comprises a main body with a predetermined storage space defined; and an air-cleaner including a case fixed to the main body and having at least an inlet and outlet, a decor panel linearly reciprocating to selectively open and close the outlet, a filter unit for filtering air sucked through the inlet, a blower for sucking air through the inlet and discharging the air filtered in the filter unit through the outlet, and an anion generator for generating anions discharged along with the air through the outlet.

Abstract: A refrigerator is provided which includes a variable temperature storage formed in the chilling chamber; a heating room formed on a side of the variable temperature storage; a heating device installed in the heating room and configured to generate heat; a first local circulating path in which cool air in the freezing chamber flows into a rear path through the variable temperature storage; an adjusting device configured to adjust a quantity of cool air flowing into/out of the variable temperature storage through the first local circulating path; a second local circulating path in which heated air in the heating room passes the variable temperature storage and flows into the heating room again; and a temperature sensor configured to sense a temperature in the variable temperature storage. Because various ranges of temperature can be maintained in the refrigerator, it is possible to perform optimum-temperature storing according to various kinds of foods.

Abstract: A negative ion generator using a carbon fiber can facilitate its manufacturing process, improve negative ion generation efficiency and implement improved antimicrobial and sterilizing functions by distributing metallic particles in an activated carbon fiber and then applying a voltage thereto. To this end, the negative ion generator comprises: a carbon fiber in which metallic particles are distributed; an electrode connected to the carbon fiber and applying a voltage thereto; and a power unit for supplying power to the electrode.

Abstract: A cool air supplying apparatus of a refrigerator comprises a guide passage formed at a rear wall of a refrigerating chamber and provided with a plurality of discharge ports towards the refrigerating chamber for guiding cool air to a rear side of the refrigerating chamber, and a direction control unit installed at the guide passage for selectively opening and closing the discharge ports in order to control a discharge direction of cool air discharged into the refrigerating chamber.

Abstract: A deodorizer for a refrigerator is formed of a mesh type material having fine multiple pores through which the air in the refrigerator passes and the material having multiple pleats so as to enlarge a surface area coming in contact with the air, thereby maximizing a Surface area coming in contact with the cool air and accordingly, improving deodorizing performance.
