PURPOSE:To prevent foods in a refrigerator from being dried and hereby keep freshness by providing a water diversion passage branched from a water supply pipe for supply water to a moisture absorbing filter, and further providing a switching valve for selectively switching the water at a branch point to an ice making tray side and a moisture absorbing filter side. CONSTITUTION:A moisture absorption container 22 including a moisture absorbing filter 21 is provided in a refrigerator chamber 3, the moisture absorbing filter being capable of preventing foods from being dried. Further, a water diversion passage 23 branched from a water supply pipe 20 is provided between a moisture absorbing filter 21 side and the water supply pipe 20. A switching valve 24 is provided at the branch point for switching a water flow to an ice making tray 15 side and a moisture absorbing filter 21 side, whereby water in a water supply tank 18 is supplied to the moisture absorbing filter 21. Water supply to the moisture absorbing filter 21 is effected by switching the switching valve 24 on the basis of a predetermined program. Thereby, foods contained in the atmosphere absorption container 22 is fed with adequate moisture, and hence the freshness of foods are prevented from being lowered in a short time and dried. |
