Abstract: A refrigeration device may provide a snooze feature, in which the compressor of the refrigeration device is turned off for a predetermined period of time in response to a user command. The refrigeration device may also provide a quick chill feature, in which the compressor of the refrigeration device is turned on for a predetermined period of time in response to a user command. User commands for controlling the operation of the refrigeration device may be provide through a control panel, a remote control or a network interface.

Abstract: In a refrigerator, the inner space of a heat insulated housing is divided to form a refrigerating compartment, a freezer compartment, and a vegetable compartment. A projection which contacts with the back of a cooler cover and divides the space behind the cooler cover into two chambers arranged in a lateral direction is formed on a back wall portion. The space enclosed by the projection, the cooler cover, and the housing is formed as a cold air passage for guiding cold air of the refrigerating compartment to the vegetable compartment. A damper device has a shutter plate, a bias spring which urges the shutter plate toward a cold air duct, and a shape memorizing alloy coil spring on which a heater is wound. A weak current is always supplied from a damper control device to the heater so that the temperature of the shape memorizing alloy coil spring is maintained at the Ms point (martensite phase transition start temperature) or higher under the state where the shutter plate is lifted up.
