<p>A refrigerator which is designed to suppress drying and oxidation to create an improved storage environment therein for food and which has increased volumetric efficiency and increased cooling efficiency. A cold storage chamber, a vegetable chamber and a freezing chamber are arranged in the refrigerator in the order mentioned as viewed from top. The freezing chamber has cold air introduced thereinto from a first cooler and a first blower and the cold storage chamber has cold air introduced thereinto from a second cooler and a second blower, so that both chambers function directly as cooling chambers. The vegetable chamber is provided at its top with a thermally conductive cooling plate which is cooled by the action of forced convection caused by the second cooler and second blower so as to radiate low temperature within the chamber, so that it functions as an indirect cooling chamber which is cooled by natural convection effect. Therefore, the refrigerator has high preservation performance, exerting quality retention effects corresponding to the storage suitabilities of foods.</p> |
