Abstract
Disclosed are a refrigerator and a method and device for controlling refrigeration of the refrigerator. A refrigeration system of the refrigerator includes an evaporator configured to refrigerate a refrigerating compartment and make ice in an ice machine, an ice-making damper and a refrigerating damper. The method includes recognizing a current ice-making stage of the ice machine, acquiring a current temperature of an ice-making compartment in the refrigerator, and controlling opening and closing of the ice-making damper and the refrigerating damper according to the current ice-making stage and the current temperature. Through controlling the refrigeration period of the refrigerating compartment and delaying the refrigeration starting time of the refrigerating compartment, the refrigeration cycle of the refrigerating compartment matches the ice-making cycle of the ice-making compartment, thus improving the ice-making efficiency of the ice machine and the ice-making amount, shortening the ice-making cycle, and reducing the energy consumption of the refrigerator.
