  • Patent number: 10222112
    Abstract: A refrigeration device includes a water supply device for supplying water to an ice maker in the interior of the refrigeration device. The refrigeration device has an installation recess in an inner wall of the refrigeration device for inserting the water supply device. The installation recess is closed towards an outer wall of the refrigeration device.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10215476
    Abstract: A refrigeration device has a housing with an inner liner, a lower housing plate, and a beam connecting the inner liner and the lower housing plate. A reinforcing member is fixed on the beam for enhancing a strength of a bottom wall. A cavity is formed between the reinforcing member and a front wall. Thermal insulation material formed by foaming is disposed inside and outside the cavity. The reinforcing member and the front wall of the beam enclose the cavity, so that the thermal insulation material enables the beam and the reinforcing member to form a whole for bearing a force. The assembly is thus improved for preventing deformation of the bottom wall due to impact.

  • Patent number: 8256237
    Abstract: A refrigerating device is provided that includes an evaporator and a compartment that is cooled by air circulating air from and to the evaporator, wherein a diffusion layer can be displaced between a first position, in which air passage openings distributed in a wall separating the compartment from a distribution chamber are covered by the diffusion layer, and a second position, in which the diffusion layer is positioned so as to allow air to flow from the evaporator through the distribution chamber into the compartment while bypassing the diffusion layer.
