Patent number: 8083106Abstract: A refrigerator includes an ice dispenser with a duct cap for opening and closing an ice duct of the dispenser. A user operated lever is operably coupled to both the duct cap, and a joint member. A frictional member is disposed to come in frictional contact with the joint member as the duct cap moves between open and closed position. An elastic member elastically supports the joint member with respect to the lever. The closing operation of the duct cap is delayed by using a frictional force developed between the joint member and the frictional member.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 2007Date of Patent: December 27, 2011Assignee: LG Electronics Inc.Inventors: Kyong Bae Park, Nam Soo Cho, Dong Hoon Lee

Patent number: 7841493Abstract: A dispenser for a refrigerator is provided. The dispenser may include a cover which opens or shuts an opening of a duct that guides contents from an interior of the refrigerator to the dispenser for discharge. An actuator transmits an externally applied force to the cover to cause the cover to move and selectively open and shut the opening. A regulator controls action of the actuator to adjust movement of the cover.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2007Date of Patent: November 30, 2010Assignee: LG Electronics Inc.Inventors: Kyong Bae Park, Sung Jhee, Nam Soo Cho

Patent number: 7823755Abstract: A refrigerator is provided which includes a duct cap disposed so as to open and close an ice duct formed in the refrigerator, an opening and closing device connected so as to open and close the duct cap, and a damper connected to one of the duct cap and the opening and closing device such that a closing operation of the duct cap is delayed. The opening and closing device allows the duct cap to be manually opened and closed, and the damper is interlocked with the opening and closing device so as to delay a closing operation of the duct cap. With this structure, cost may be reduced and noise and/or vibration minimized, compared with mechanisms with the closing operation of the duct cap delayed using electric driving parts, such as solenoids.Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 2007Date of Patent: November 2, 2010Assignee: LG Electronics Inc.Inventors: Kyong Bae Park, Sung Jhee, Nam Soo Cho

Patent number: 7673469Abstract: A refrigerator with an ice dispenser includes a spiral type time delay unit for controlling the opening and closing of an ice duct. A duct cap opens and closes an ice duct formed in the refrigerator. A rotating shaft of the time delay unit is operably connected to the duct cap. Foldaway catching members on a rotating shaft intersect with a threaded cylindrical body. The catching members fold back to allow a quick opening of the ice duct. The catching members then interact with the threaded cylindrical body as the ice duct closes to delay the closing process.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 2007Date of Patent: March 9, 2010Assignee: LG Electronics Inc.Inventors: Kyong Bae Park, Nam Soo Cho, Dong Hoon Lee
