Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To facilitate the recognition of the presence of all foods in a refrigerator by mounting a bar code reader for reading a commodity bar code. SOLUTION: The commodity name of food is stored in a computer contained in a refrigerator via reading the code by a bar code reader 1. In this case, the date of filling the food in the refrigerator is stored, and the computer calculates the expiration data for best taste to meet the commodity name. The name and the expiration date are displayed on a liquid crystal screen 2 mounted at the front surface of a door. In the case of using the food, the code is again read, and the record of the food is erased. Thus, all the food in the present refrigerant can be confirmed on the screen.
