PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a refrigerator having a motor for driving a door to close, in which the door can be easily opened and closed by hand.SOLUTION: A refrigerator includes: a pusher 99 provides on a fourth gear 93 of a last line of a speed-reducing gear connected to a motor; and a contacting member 102 provided on an output shaft 100 on a door-side positioned on the shaft, in which, when the door is driven towards a closing direction, the pusher 99 pushes the contacting member 102 so that a rotation of the motor is delivered to the door-side. When the door is fully closed, the motor is operated to rotate reversely so that the fourth gear 93 is moved to a waiting position corresponding to a fully-opened position. When the door is closed manually, the contacting member 102 is moved apart from the pusher 99 so as to be disconnected from the motor, thereby enabling the door to be closed with little force. Further, when the door is fully closed, the pusher 99 is apart at the waiting position, thereby enabling the door 3 to be easily opened manually to a fully-opened position. |
