Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to a dispenser module.
  • a refrigerator is an apparatus for storing food for by keeping a refrigeration compartment and a freezing compartment at a low temperature using a heat exchange process involving a refrigerant, where a freezing cycle consisting of compression, condensation, expansion and evaporation is used to generate cold air.
  • a refrigerator in general, includes a refrigerator main body with a freezing compartment and a refrigeration compartment for storing food at a low temperature, and refrigerator doors mounted to a front surface of the refrigerator main body to selectively open and close the freezing compartment and the refrigeration compartment.
  • Top-mount refrigerators with a freezing compartment disposed above a refrigeration compartment are a common type of refrigerator.
  • bottom-freeze refrigerators with a freezing compartment positioned at a lower end of the refrigerator have become popular due to enhanced user convenience.
  • the freezing compartment is positioned lower which may be inconvenient when a user wants to retrieve ice from the freezer.
  • bottom-freeze refrigerator may include a dispenser disposed on a refrigeration compartment door for dispensing ice.
  • the dispenser is installed in the refrigeration compartment door, and a user may dispense ice by placing a container on the dispenser and pressing a push member or a button, for example.
  • the ice may be scattered around in the course of dispensing the ice through the dispenser and may become lodged in other parts of the refrigerator. This may lead to sanitary problems when ice and/or water sits in areas of the refrigerator that are intended to be kept dry. Accordingly, a demand exists for a dispenser that enables ice pieces to be discharged only through a specified route without being scattered around the refrigerator.
  • Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a dispenser module and a refrigerator including the same, which are capable of preventing ice pieces from being scattered around the refrigerator and ensure that ice is only discharged from a specified route.
