As described above, since the power supply from the main body 1 to the door 2 and the optical signal transmission between the main body 1 and the door 2 are both performed in a non-contact manner, the number of components can be reduced. Therefore, cost reduction can be achieved.
Further, unlike the conventional case, it is not necessary to directly connect the main body 1 and the door 2 via the hinge portion (not shown) of the door 2, so that the door 2 can be opened and closed from either side. It can also be applied to a refrigerator / freezer with such a structure. Furthermore, since no externally exposed members such as contact type power supply terminals and communication terminals are required, there is no risk of contact failure due to oxidation or corrosion of the terminal surface, and it is also effective in terms of waterproofing / contamination. In addition, in the above-described embodiment, the example in which the optical communication is adopted as the non-contact signal transmission means has been described, but the signal transmission means may be replaced with another method using radio waves, electromagnetic waves, or the like.
