A refrigerator of the present embodiment comprises: a cabinet for forming a storage space; and a door for opening/closing the storage space. The door comprises: a frame assembly in which a thermal insulation material is filled; and a panel assembly which is separably-coupled to the frame assembly and forms the front exterior of the door, wherein, in a state where the lower side of the panel assembly is supported on the lower side of the frame assembly, the upper side of the panel assembly is fixed to the upper side of the frame assembly.

Refrigerator

A refrigerator includes a cabinet and a door. The door includes a door body including a door liner, a front plate, a cap decor connected to the door liner and the front plate and having a recessed handle, and an insulator filled between the door liner, the front plate, and the cap decor. The door includes a panel assembly detachably mounted on a front surface of the door body and defining a front surface of the door. The panel assembly includes a panel defining an outer appearance of the front surface of the door and an insertion protrusion protruding backward from the panel and inserted into a front surface of the cap decor when the panel is mounted to restrict the panel assembly. The insertion protrusion extends from the outside of a recessed space of the handle in a direction crossing the recessed space.

A refrigerator includes a cabinet and a door. The door includes a door liner, a front plate, a first cap decor coupled to the door liner and the front plate, a second cap decor coupled to the door liner and the front plate at a position facing the first cap decor, an insulator filled into a space defined by coupling of the door liner, the front plate, and the cap decors, and a panel assembly disposed detachably in front of the front plate. The panel assembly includes a panel defining an outer appearance of a front surface of the door, a first bracket protruding from a rear surface of the panel and inserted into the first cap decor, and a second bracket provided on the rear surface of the panel and supported by the second cap decor.

A refrigerator includes: an evaporator provided in a storage space and configured to supply cold air to the storage space, a duct assembly provided above the evaporator and configured to guide the cold air supplied to the storage space, a door supply duct coupled to the duct assembly and configured to guide a part of the cold air flowing through the duct assembly to a door, and a fan motor assembly coupled to a lower end of the duct assembly and configured to suction air cooled by the evaporator and blow the suctioned air into the duct assembly. The duct assembly defines a first passage and a second passage that are spaced apart from each other, where the second passage includes a main passage configured to supply the cold air to the storage space and a sub-passage branched from the main passage and coupled to the door supply duct.
