A method for controlling a refrigerator includes determining whether an ice bin accommodated in an ice making compartment that receives cold air from the first storage compartment is full of stored ice, determining, by a controller, whether an algorithm that prevents the ice stored in the ice bin from melting needs to be performed upon determining that the ice bin is full, and performing the algorithm.

Refrigerator and method of controlling a refrigerator

A control method for a refrigerator comprises: sensing a temperature of a first storage chamber; increasing an output of a first cooling fan if the temperature reaches a value greater than or equal to a second reference temperature; reducing the output of the first cooling fan if the temperature reaches a value less than or equal to a first reference temperature; increasing the output of the first cooling fan if a first reference time has passed after the temperature has reached the value or if the temperature reaches a first setting temperature between the first reference temperature and the second reference temperature; and reducing the output of the first cooling fan if a second reference time has passed after the output of the first cooling fan has been changed, or if the temperature reaches a preset second setting temperature between the first setting temperature and the first reference temperature.

Refrigerator and control method therefor

A robot refrigerator and a robot refrigerator system are provided. The robot refrigerator is remotely controlled. The robot refrigerator generates image information from a surrounding image and transmits the generated image information to a wireless communication device. The wireless communication device remotely controls the robot refrigerator, or monitors or remotely controls the robot refrigerator in real time, so that the robot refrigerator easily avoids an obstacle, and thus, minimizes a movement time of the robot refrigerator. Thus, user convenience and system reliability is improved.

Robot refrigerator and system having the same

A mobile cooler having an ice maker includes: a main body having first and second spaces which are thermally blocked; a cooling device positioned at a lower portion of the main body and providing cooling air to the first and second spaces; a plurality of shelves installed in the first space; an ice tray installed in the second space; an ice bank positioned on a lower surface of the ice tray and detachably mounted in the main body; and a cover that covers an opening in which the ice bank is inserted.

Mobile cooler with ice maker

Disclosed herein is a movable refrigerator including a main body travel driving unit configured to automatically rotate the wheel to move the main body and a main body travel switching unit configured to turn on or off the main body travel driving unit to automatically or manually move the main body. Accordingly, the user may suitably select and use automatic operation and manual operation according to the user's healthy condition, the environment of the used place, or the need of use, thereby greatly enhancing the use convenience of a movable refrigerator.
