Abstract: Provided is a door for a refrigerator. The door includes an outer door manufactured by pressing and deforming a metal sheet. The outer door includes a first surface, second to fifth surfaces extending from the first surface, and a plurality of flanges extending from the second to fifth surfaces. The first to fifth surfaces are integrated with each other and defined based on the pressing and deforming of the metal sheet. A door liner is coupled to surfaces of the plurality of flanges of the outer door, and an insulation material is disposed in a space defined between the door liner and the outer door.

Abstract: Provided is a mold for molding a decorative outer panel of a refrigerator. A molding part is processed on a surface of the mold formed of a metal or engineering plastic material, but not formed of a glass material, to mold the decorative outer panel of a refrigerator having at least partial three-dimensional shape. Thus, the decorative outer panel having a three-dimensional shape or pattern may be formed through a simple process without performing a post-processing process.

Abstract: A door including a decorative panel is provided. The door may include a door liner, an outer door connected to the door liner, an insulation material disposed between the door liner and the outer door, and a decorative panel provided on an outer surface of the outer door. The decorative panel may include a front surface and a side surface extending at a bend from the front surface. The door may be coupled to a refrigerator or other home appliance.

Abstract: Disclosed are a vacuum insulation member, a refrigerator having the vacuum insulation member, and a method for fabricating the vacuum insulation member. The vacuum insulation member includes: a core having a certain shape and having a decompressed space therein; and a gas barrier layer formed by coating a certain material on a surface of the core to have impermeability. Accordingly, the use of an envelope (film) can be avoided to obtain reliability, and the use of a glass fiber core which must undergo a preprocessing process for which much equipment and time are required can be avoided.

Abstract: Disclosed are a vacuum insulation member, a refrigerator having a vacuum insulation member, and a method for fabricating a vacuum insulation member. The vacuum insulation member includes: an envelope having gas impermeability and having a certain decompressed space therein; a core formed as a structure for maintaining a certain shape and disposed at an inner side of the envelope to support the envelope; and a filler formed as powder having micro pores and filled at the inner side of the envelope. The use of a glass fiber core can be avoided, an internal vacuum degree can be easily maintained, and a life span can be lengthened.

Abstract: Disclosed is a vacuum insulation member having a uniform insulation thickness, a refrigerator having a vacuum insulation member, and a method for fabricating a vacuum insulation member. The vacuum insulation member includes: an envelope having gas impermeability and having a certain decompressed space therein; and a core including a plurality of laminated mesh members to support the envelope at an outer side of the envelope.

Abstract: A core of a vacuum insulation member and a vacuum insulation member using the same are disclosed. The core of a vacuum insulation member includes: a plurality of plates which are spaced apart from each other; and a support member supporting the plurality of plates between the plates.

Abstract: Disclosed are a vacuum insulation member, a refrigerator having a vacuum insulation member, and a method for fabricating a vacuum insulation member. The vacuum insulation member includes: an envelope having gas impermeability and having a certain decompressed space therein; and a core having a certain shape, having an empty space formed therein, and disposed at an inner side of the envelope to support the envelope. The use of a glass fiber core can be avoided, and thus, employing equipment for preprocessing the glass fiber core and time required therefor can be restrained and fabrication can be facilitated.
