Abstract
An apparatus for storing food is provided that includes a food storage chamber, a cooling device, a scroll-type fan housing with a fan, and a duct that guides cool air from the scroll-type fan housing to the food storage chamber. The scroll-type fan housing may be located to the left or right of the cooling device, and the duct may be located above or below the cooling device and the scroll-type fan housing. Alternatively, the scroll-type fan housing may be located above or below the cooling device, and the duct located on a left or right side of the cooling device and the scroll-type fan housing. These arrangements result in more usable space within the food storage chamber than other conventional arrangements.
