A modular refrigerator including a main cabinet, and a sub-cabinet selectively coupleable to a right side, an upper side, and a left side, of the main cabinet. The main cabinet includes a cooling unit, a first connection duct for cold air generated by the cooling unit to flow toward the right side, a second connection duct for the cold air to flow toward the upper side, and a third connection duct for the cold air to flow toward the left side. The sub-cabinet includes a first branch duct that, when the sub-cabinet is coupled to the right side, communicates with the first connection duct, a second branch duct that, when the sub-cabinet is coupled to the upper side, communicates with the second connection duct, and a third branch duct that, when the sub-cabinet is coupled to the left side, communicates with third connection duct.

Module refrigerator

A refrigerator including a cabinet having an outer case; a side panel including a main body; and an upper panel, wherein the side panel is configured to be detachably mounted on an outside of the outer case so that the main body forms an exterior of one side surface of the cabinet while the side panel is mounted to the outside of the outer case, and the upper panel is configured to be detachably coupled to the side panel while the side panel is mounted to the outside of the outer case so that the upper panel covers an upper portion of the cabinet.

Refrigerator

A refrigerator includes: a main body; a storage room formed inside the main body; an ice maker fixed to the main body, and inside the storage room; and a drawer accommodated in the storage room and configured to be withdrawable in a front direction with respect to the main body to open or close the storage room, wherein the drawer includes: a basket including an ice-making room formed therein and below the ice maker and a top portion opened; and a cover assembly in front of the ice maker and configured to cover the opened top portion of the ice-making room together with the ice maker, the cover assembly comprising a plurality of covers slidingly coupled with the basket and extendable when the basket is pulled out so that the plurality of covers changes in length along the front direction in which the basket is pulled out.

A refrigerator includes a first refrigerator including a first cabinet and a second refrigerator including a second cabinet, and operating independently from the first refrigerator. A first connector is installed on the first cabinet; and a second connector is installed on the second cabinet to correspond to the first connector. The second connector is configured to be coupled to the first connector, such that in a state in which the first connector and the second connector are coupled to each other, a movement of the first cabinet in a first direction with respect to the second cabinet is allowed, and a movement of the first cabinet in a second direction with respect to the second cabinet is restricted, with the second direction being perpendicular to the first direction.

Refrigerator and home appliance

A refrigerator includes an inner case configured to accommodate a refrigerated item therein, an outer case configured to surround the inner case, a heat insulator configured to be at least partially disposed between the inner case and the outer case, and a reinforcing member disposed between the inner case and the outer case to support the outer case and having a fastening part to couple the refrigerator with another refrigerator installed adjacent to the refrigerator by using a connection member, and the fastening part coupled to the connection member to enable alignment between the refrigerator and the another refrigerator.

Provided is a refrigerator having a supporting frame whose installation structure is enhanced. The refrigerator includes an inner case defining a storeroom and having a projection formed to protrude to the inside of the storeroom, a drawer arranged to be inserted or pulled out from the storeroom, and a supporting frame arranged in the storeroom to guide movements of the drawer, and installed at the projection, wherein the supporting frame includes a fixer arranged on a side of the supporting frame to prevent the supporting frame from deviating from the projection, the fixer being deformed when pressurized by the projection and restored to an original state when the pressure from the projection is released.

A refrigerator includes a plurality of wall modules and a cooling module. At least one of a rear wall module, a left wall module, or a right wall module includes a supply duct provided to supply cold air produced by the cooling module to a storeroom, and a collecting duct to bring air having exchanged heat from the storeroom back to the cooling module.
