Abstract
An evaporator comprises: an evaporator case having first and second case sheets coupled to each other and bent such that both sides of the evaporator case are open, thereby forming a box shape, a food storing space being formed inside the evaporator case; a cooling tube provided as an empty space between the first and second case sheets, thereby forming a cooling channel through which a refrigerant flows; and a heating tube formed as an empty space between the first and second case sheets so as not to overlap with the cooling tube, thereby forming a heating channel for defrosting, wherein the cooling tube and the heating tube are shaped to protrude to the outside of the evaporator case, and the evaporator case has an inner surface formed to be flat.
