A refrigerator includes a cabinet having a first storage space, a main door configured to open and close the first storage space, a second storage space defined in the main door, an opening defined in the main door, a sub door configured to open and close the opening and disposed in front of the main door, and a camera assembly provided at the sub door to photograph the second storage space in a state in which the sub door is opened.

Refrigerator

Provided is a refrigerator. The refrigerator includes a cabinet in which a storage space is defined and a door which is configured to open and close the storage space and into which an insulating material is filled. The door includes an outer plate which is configured to define a front surface of the door and in which an opening is defined, a panel assembly configured to shield the opening so that the inside of the door is seen therethrough, a supporter frame mounted on a rear surface of the outer plate and configured to support a circumference of the opening and a circumference of the panel assembly, and a display device which is mounted on the supporter frame in which a plurality of LEDs are continuously disposed on a substrate. A transmission portion through which light irradiated from the display is transmitted is provided in the display device.

A refrigerator includes a cabinet having a storage space, a door configured to open and close the storage space, a first display disposed on the door, and a second display spaced apart from the first display, configured to operate to be interlocked with the first display, and having a plurality of light emitting portions.

A refrigerator includes a cabinet and a door configured to open and close a storage space of the cabinet. The door includes an outer plate defining a plate opening, a door liner defining a liner opening, a panel assembly configured to shield the plate opening and the liner opening. The panel assembly includes a first display through which the inside thereof is visible, and a screen is output, a second display disposed at a position that is spaced apart from the first display, and a frame provided between the outer plate and the door liner. The frame includes a first mounting part that mounts the panel assembly, a second mounting part that mounts the second display, and a wire guide part that connects the first mounting part to the second mounting part and accommodates a wire connected to the second display.

Provided is a refrigerator in which a transparent display assembly and electric modules, which are disposed in a door to see through a storage space and output a screen, are easily connected to a control unit provided in a cabinet and guided through a narrow door hinge.

A refrigerator includes: a cabinet; a door; an out plate that defines an outer appearance of the door and a plate opening; a door liner that defines a rear surface of the door and a liner opening; a transparent display assembly that is located between the door liner and the out plate and that allows the storage space to be seen therethrough and a screen to be outputted; a PCB provided on the inner side of the door and connected to the transparent display assembly; a display PCB provided at the cabinet and configured to control the transparent display assembly; a cable connecting the transparent display assembly and the PCB and having a flat shape that extends along a circumference of the transparent display assembly; and a connection cable connecting the PCB and the display PCB and having a wire shape that penetrates the door.

Refrigerator having a transparent door

A refrigerator includes a cabinet, a door, an outer plate defining a plate opening, a door liner defining a liner opening, a frame disposed along a circumference of the plate opening, a transparent display assembly seated on the frame and configured to cover at least a portion of the plate opening and the liner opening, a decoration cap defining a top surface of the door, an insulation material filled in at least a portion of the door along a circumference of the transparent display assembly, a PCB configured to control operation of the transparent display assembly, and a barrier that contacts the outer plate and that defines a first space configured to receive the insulation material and a second space configured to accommodate the PCB.
