Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to a refrigerator.
In general, a refrigerator is a home appliance that allows food to be stored at a low temperature. The refrigerator is configured to store stored foods in an optimal state by cooling the inside of the storage space using cold air generated through heat exchange with a refrigerant circulating through a refrigeration cycle. do.
Such refrigerators are becoming larger and more versatile as the dietary changes and user's preferences are diversified.
In general, the storage space inside the refrigerator is partitioned by the barrier to form a refrigerating compartment and a freezing compartment, and its shape may be variously configured according to the arrangement of the refrigerating compartment and the freezing compartment.
In particular, the side by side type of the refrigerators are arranged side by side on the left and right sides of the refrigerating compartment and the freezing compartment, respectively, and are configured to be individually opened and closed by the refrigerating compartment door and the freezing compartment door.
The side-by-side type refrigerator is usually configured to supply cold air to the refrigerating compartment and the freezing compartment by providing an evaporator at the rear of the refrigerating compartment and / or the freezing compartment. However, the internal volume of the refrigerator is reduced as much as the space where the evaporator is mounted.
The present invention has been proposed to improve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a refrigerator equipped with an ice making device that changes the mounting position of the evaporator and makes ice using cold air supplied from the evaporator.
Refrigerator according to an embodiment of the present invention for achieving the above object, the cabinet having a storage space; A barrier partitioning the storage space into a freezing compartment and a refrigerating compartment, wherein a heat insulating material is filled in the inside thereof, and a depression including a cold air passage formed at one side thereof; An evaporator accommodated on one side of the depression except for the cold air passage; A barrier cover covering the recess; A freezer compartment door and a refrigerator compartment door for opening and closing the freezer compartment and the refrigerating compartment, respectively; And an ice making unit provided in the freezing compartment door, wherein the cold air passage and the ice making unit are fluidly connected in a state where the freezing compartment door is closed.
According to the refrigerator according to the embodiment of the present invention having the above configuration, the evaporator is accommodated in the barrier, thereby increasing the volume of the refrigerator.
Furthermore, when the ice making unit is mounted on the freezing compartment door, the cold air flow path connected to the ice making duct is shorter than before, and thus there is an advantage that the cold air loss is reduced.
