Abstract
A refrigerator includes a freezing chamber and a refrigerating chamber located beneath the freezing chamber and separated therefrom by a partition. An evaporator is disposed in the partition for cooling air received from the freezing and refrigerating chambers. A fan circulates that air to the evaporator and then back to the chambers. An air passage disposed in the partition communicates the refrigerating chamber with the evaporator. An air sterilizing and deodorizing mechanism is disposed at an upstream end of that passage for treating air leaving the refrigerating chamber and entering the passage.
