Abstract

Ce réfrigérateur comprend : un corps ayant une chambre de stockage avec une ouverture formée sur le côté avant ; une première porte et une seconde porte du type à double porte qui recouvrent de manière ouvrable et étanche l'ouverture ; une plaque de séparation qui comporte un dispositif de chauffage, est disposée de manière rotative sur la première porte, et ferme l'espace entre la première porte et la seconde porte du côté de la chambre de stockage dans un état dans lequel la première porte et la seconde porte ferment l'ouverture ; un élément de guidage qui est disposé sur la surface supérieure de la chambre de stockage et fait tourner la plaque de séparation ; et un premier élément de couvercle qui est disposé sur l'élément de guidage de façon à être mobile dans la direction verticale. Le premier élément de couvercle est abaissé pour venir en contact avec l'extrémité supérieure de la plaque de séparation dans l'état dans lequel la première porte et la seconde porte ferment l'ouverture par comparaison avec un état dans lequel la première porte et la seconde porte ouvrent l'ouverture, et recouvre au moins une partie du côté de l'espace supérieur formé entre l'élément de guidage et l'extrémité supérieure de la plaque de séparation, et l'arrière de l'espace supérieur.
