Abstract: A refrigerator may include a rack gear assembly provided on a lower surface of a drawer. The rack gear assembly may have a first rack member and a second rack member that are pushed out by being moved forward sequentially so that a pushing-out distance of the drawer is maximized and the drawer is fully closed even when opposite sides thereof are pushed in a storage chamber without being in parallel.

Abstract: A refrigerator includes a cabinet that defines a storage chamber, and a drawer door configured to be inserted into and withdrawn out of the storage chamber. The drawer door includes a drawer part that defines a storage space and a door part configured to open and close the storage chamber based on the drawer door being inserted into and withdrawn out of the storage chamber. An electric device is provided in the door part, and a wiring extends from the cabinet to the drawer door. A wiring guider extends from the cabinet to the drawer door and provides a passageway for the wiring. The wiring guider includes a first linear section connected to the drawer door, a second linear section connected to the cabinet, and a bent section between the first linear section and the second linear section.

Abstract: A refrigerator includes a cabinet defining a storage chamber, a drawer door comprising a drawer part defining a storage space and a door part, an elevation device for elevating the storage space, a driving device, and a wiring guider between a top surface of the storage chamber and a bottom surface of the drawer door, the wiring guider guiding a wiring that provides an electrical connection between the cabinet and the driving device. The wiring guider includes a rotation connection member that rotatably couples a first end of the wiring guide to the cabinet, a guide head that fixedly couples a second end of the wiring guide to the door part, and a flexible portion that connects the rotation connection member to the guide head. The wiring between the cabinet and the driving device sequentially passes through the rotation connection member, the flexible portion, and the guide head.

Abstract: A refrigerator may include a cabinet, a drawer, a driving part, a cable tray, and a rack gear assembly. Connecting members of the cable tray may be maintained in an anti-sagging state by a tray guide part, so that friction noise generated during moving of the cable tray is prevented and interference with the cable tray during moving of the drawer is prevented.

Abstract: A refrigerator includes a rack gear assembly provided on a lower surface of a drawer, wherein the rack gear assembly has a first rack member and a second rack member sequentially moved forward such that an opening distance of the drawer is maximized, and a wing end of the second rack member and a blocking part of a bottom of a storage chamber are provided such that exact engagement of a rack gear with a pinion is maintained during opening of the drawer. In addition, while the drawer is opened, an unwanted movement of the drawer in a closing direction thereof is prevented.

Abstract: A refrigerator includes a rack gear assembly on a lower surface of a drawer, and the rack gear assembly has a first rack member and a second rack member moved forward sequentially while moving forward such that an opening distance of the drawer is maximized. In addition, a noise reduction part is provided between a stopper member and a confining protrusion part constituting the rack gear assembly. Accordingly, although the stopper member collides with the confining protrusion part, impact noise is reduced and damage caused by the collision is prevented.
