As shown in fig. 2, the refrigerator 100 of the present embodiment may include three storage spaces arranged from top to bottom: a first space 131, a second space 132, and a third space 133. The three storage spaces can be configured into a refrigerating space, a freezing space, a temperature changing space or a fresh-keeping space according to different purposes. Each storage space may be divided into a plurality of storage areas by a division plate, and the storage of articles using racks or drawers.
The refrigerator 100 of the present embodiment has a plurality of storage spaces including a refrigerating space and at least one freezing space. As shown in fig. 2 and 3, the case 10 may include: a refrigerated liner 72 and a frozen liner 71. The freezing liner 71 defines therein a cooling chamber 11 and at least one freezing space located directly above the cooling chamber 11.

Specifically, the heating wire 211 may be an aluminum tube heating wire, since aluminum metal may enhance the heat conduction effect, and thus may ensure the defrosting of the evaporator 21. The heating wire 211 can be embedded in a channel formed by a plurality of fin notches of the evaporator 21, and can be integrally arranged at the top and the bottom of the evaporator 21 to directly heat the evaporator 21, so that the defrosting effect is improved.

Further, the refrigerator 100 of the present embodiment, the drain mechanism 40 further includes: an air deflector 44 is provided over the side guide surface 43 so as to guide the air entering the cooling chamber 11 through the drain hole 431 to the front end of the evaporator 21. It is ensured that high temperature and high humidity air possibly existing in the cooling chamber 11 is evaporated by the evaporator 21, and the refrigerator 100 is prevented from quality accidents due to inflow of external air. In addition, when sundries in the refrigerator 100 fall into the cooling chamber 11, the sundries slide down to the front guide surface 42 under the action of the main guide surface 41, so that cleaning is facilitated, and the use experience of a user is improved.
Further, in the refrigerator 100 of the present embodiment, the compressor compartment 12 is disposed at the rear portion of the cooling chamber 11, so that the storage space above the compressor compartment 12 and the cooling chamber 11 is realized as a planar space, and the availability of the storage space is improved compared to a special-shaped space. In addition, the depth of the storage space is effectively reduced, so that the storage of the articles is changed from stacked storage to unfolded storage, the users can find the articles conveniently, the time and energy of the users are saved, and the use experience of the users is further improved. The condenser 25, the heat dissipation fan 24 and the compressor 23 are arranged in the compressor bin 12 in sequence along the transverse direction, the condenser 25 is arranged on one side close to the heat dissipation air inlet 121, the compressor 23 is arranged on one side close to the heat dissipation air outlet 122, the heat dissipation fan 24 is arranged between the condenser 25 and the compressor 23, so that the space is effectively utilized while the technical requirements are met, and the area occupying the storage space is reduced.
By now it should be appreciated by those skilled in the art that while a number of exemplary embodiments of the invention have been shown and described herein in detail, many other variations or modifications of the invention consistent with the principles of the invention may be directly ascertained or inferred from the present disclosure without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Accordingly, the scope of the present invention should be understood and deemed to cover all such other variations or modifications.
