Abstract: A refrigerator, including a cabinet in which a cooling chamber located at the lower part and at least one storage compartment located above the cooling chamber are defined; and an evaporator arranged in the cooling chamber and configured to cool airflow entering the cooling chamber to form cooling airflow, wherein a water pan is formed on a bottom wall of the cooling chamber below the evaporator, and used for receiving defrosted water generated by the evaporator, a slope structure is formed on an upper surface of the water pan, and the evaporator is obliquely arranged on the water pan. According to the refrigerator, the effective volume of the compartment is increased, and the overall height of the cooling chamber can be reduced.

Abstract: Disclosed is a refrigerator having a centrifugal fan with a volute, which includes a cabinet, an evaporator, a centrifugal fan, and an air supply duct. A cooling chamber located at a lower part and at least one storage compartment located above the cooling chamber are defined in the cabinet; the evaporator is disposed in the cooling chamber and is configured to cool airflow entering the cooling chamber to form cooled airflow; the centrifugal fan includes a volute and an impeller disposed in the volute; and the air supply duct is detachably connected with the volute, communicates with a volute air outlet, and is configured to deliver the cooled airflow into the at least one storage compartment.

Abstract: 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.
