Abstract
An automatic refrigerator includes a sterilized storage compartment, normally kept at a food storage temperature, in which a blower provides forced ventilation. A germicide lamp, capable of generating ultraviolet radiations, is located in the flow path of the forced ventilation and is associated with a shielding device protecting the storage compartment from the radiations.
