Abstract

PURPOSE:To stabilize a supply of cooled air to a refrigerating room by providing an exhaust fan to exhaust the cooled air in a freezing room into the refrigerating room and a return duct foamed rearward and backside of a plastic case to communicate the refrigerating room with a cooling unit room. CONSTITUTION:A freezer and refrigerator is divided into right and left rooms with a heat-insulating partition 17, one of them being a freezing room 18 and the other being a refrigerating room 19. Cooled air heat exchanged by a cooler 20a is diffused by a freezing fan 21 out of a cooled air discharge port 23 and undergoes a forced circulation to cool the freezing room 18. The cooled air from the freezing room 18 passes from a cooled air introduction port 26 in the partition 17 through a suction duct 28 and is supplied by an exhaust fan 29 from an exhaust port 27 to the refrigerating room 19. Return cooled air of the refrigerating room 19 passing through a return duct 30 in a plastic case 31 flows out of an outlet opening and is mixed with return cooled air from the freezing room 18 in the vicinity of a cooled air suction port 24. The mixed cooled air is then suctioned from the cooled air suction port 24 and heat exchanged by the cooler 20a, and thereafter, a cooled air circulation is repeated. As a result, stable cooled air can be supplied to the refrigerating room, and further, diffusion of the return cooled air can be prevented and also unevenness of temperature can be prevented.
