In addition, the connection hose and the branch hose is characterized in that formed by a flexible corrugated pipe.

In addition, the branch hose is characterized in that each formed on both sides of the hose body.

According to the present invention having the above-described configuration, by reducing the number of parts of the drain hose which had to be installed in each storage chamber by at least one or more branch hoses branched from the hose body by simplifying the structure of the drain hose, the manufacturing cost according to the reduction of the number of parts Can be reduced and rapid assembly can greatly improve productivity.

In addition, according to the present invention, as the number of parts of the discharge hose is reduced, not only the leakage preventing effect is improved, but also the space inside the machine room can be maximized.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying Figures 2 to 5 will be described in detail a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

Prior to the description, it is noted that the defrost water drainage hose 1000 of the direct-cooling refrigerator according to the present invention is applied to the direct-cooling refrigerator 1 of the prior art shown in FIG.

In addition, the defrost water drainage hose 1000 of the direct-cooling refrigerator according to the present invention applies an embodiment only to the shape in which the storage compartments 10a and 10b of the refrigerator body 10 are vertically arranged, but are not necessarily limited to the vertical arrangement. Of course, it can be applied to the horizontal arrangement.

2 and 3, the defrost water drain hose 1000 of the direct-cooling refrigerator according to the embodiment of the present invention is the external defrost water accumulated in the storage chamber (10a, 10b) formed in the refrigerator main body (10) It is for discharging to, the hose main body 100, the hose hose 100 is connected to the upper end of the main body 100, and the hose main body 100 is composed of a discharge hose 300 connected to the lower end .

First, the hose main body 100 is disposed on the rear wall surface of the refrigerator main body 10, and has a predetermined length and is formed in the form of a pipe through which the inside is penetrated.
