Each door includes a handle groove stepped so as to be opened forward and sideward and provided on each first door side frame and a handle extended so as to cover the handle groove, and the handle is disposed so as to be substantially parallel with a front surface of each door, thereby providing unity to designs of the handle and the door. | 02-16-2012 |
20140097733 | REFRIGERATOR AND FILLER THEREOF - A filler to seal a gap between a plurality of doors is provided with a height adjustment portion, thereby enabling a height of the filler to be uniformly maintained regardless of deflection of the door. Accordingly, the filler may be smoothly operated regardless of deflection of the door, and cold air in a storage chamber may be prevented from escaping. The height adjustment portion has a truncated cone shape, and may be supported by a bottom surface of the storage chamber when the door is closed in a deflected state. | 04-10-2014 |
20140132142 | REFRIGERATOR AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING INNER DOOR THEREOF - A refrigerator provided with an inner panel molded through injection molding while an accommodation groove in which an installation member is accommodated is formed at the inner panel, and as a gasket is installed at an installation groove of the installation member, the use of a complex mold such as a slide core is minimized while making it easy to install the gasket at the inner panel. | 05-15-2014 |
20140132144 | REFRIGERATOR - A refrigerator in which an opening having a size corresponding to the size of a refrigerator compartment is provided in a refrigerator compartment door and an outer door to open/close the opening is rotatably coupled to the refrigerator compartment door so that a plurality of door guards provided in a space corresponding to the size of the refrigerator compartment may be used by only opening/closing the outer door, and the refrigerator compartment door and the outer door may be rotated on one hinge shaft and the outer door has an auto closing structure so that the outer door may be automatically closed when a predetermined portion of the outer door is opened. | 05-15-2014 |
20140132146 | REFRIGERATOR AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING INNER DOOR THEREOF - A refrigerator including a storage compartment, an inner door having an opening in a size corresponding to the storage compartment, a plurality of door guards provided at the opening, and an outer door to open/close the opening, the refrigerator further including a plurality of reinforcing members to prevent the inner door having the opening from being distorted. | 05-15-2014 |
20140203698 | REFRIGERATOR - A refrigerator preventing a door thereof from drooping downward and allow the door to be automatically closed. The refrigerator includes a body, a storage compartment provided in the body, a front thereof being open, a door rotatably coupled to the body to open and close the storage compartment, a support unit coupled to a center of a lower portion of the body, the support unit including at least one rotating member arranged to protrude from a front of the body to correspond to a position of the lower portion of the door, and at least one droop prevention unit coupled to the lower portion of the door at a position corresponding to the rotating member, and supported by the rotating member to prevent the door from drooping downward, the droop prevention unit cooperating with the rotating member to support the door in an upward direction when the door is closed. | 07-24-2014 |
20140232250 | REFRIGERATOR HAVING DOUBLE DOORS - A refrigerator is disclosed. The disclosed refrigerator includes a body having a storage chamber, a first door pivotably provided at a front side of the body, to open or close the storage chamber, the first door having an opening, and at least one door pocket provided at the opening, a second door pivotably provided at a front side of the first door, to open or close the opening, the second door pivoting in the same direction as the first door, a first upper hinge and a first lower hinge respectively coupled to upper and lower surfaces of the body, to pivotably support the first door, and a second upper hinge and a second lower hinge respectively coupled to upper and lower surfaces of the first door, to pivotably support the second door. | 08-21-2014 |
20140232251 | REFRIGERATOR HAVING DOUBLE DOORS - A refrigerator includes a first door that is rotatably provided so as to open/close a storage compartment, a second door that is rotatably provided in the front of the first door so as to open/close the first door, and a door anti-opening unit that prevents or allows opening of the second door depending on whether the first door is opened or closed. The door anti-opening unit prevents the second door from being unintentionally opened when the first door is opened. | 08-21-2014 |
20140239791 | REFRIGERATOR - A refrigerator includes a compressor to compress refrigerant, a condenser to liquefy the refrigerant supplied from the compressor, a capillary tube to decompress and expand the refrigerant supplied from the condenser, an evaporator to vaporize the refrigerant supplied from the capillary tube, a shutoff valve installed at an inlet of the capillary tube so as to prevent the refrigerant in the condenser during stoppage of the compressor from being moved to the evaporator, and a control unit to enable the shutoff valve to be blocked together so as to prevent movement of the refrigerant from the condenser to the evaporator during stoppage of the compressor, and to enable the shutoff valve to be opened together so as to move the refrigerant from the condenser to the evaporator during starting of the compressor. | 08-28-2014 |
