Abstract
The present invention relates to a compact refrigerator for exclusively storing cosmetic preparations and certain kinds of medicines. Particularly, it relates to a compact refrigerator for storing in the compartment thereof cosmetic preparations not containing any chemical preservative or disinfectant that may have a bad effect on a human body, or cosmetic preparations containing any such preservative or disinfectant only in a small amount, so that any effect produced by the preservative or disinfectant on a human body may be minimized. The refrigerator maintains the temperature in the compartment thereof within a temperature range of about 5.degree. through 10.degree. and keeps them cool. The present invention maintains the temperature in the compartment of the refrigerator within a predetermined range of temperature by means of a thermoelectric module such as a Peltier element and/or a heat dissipating fan.
