PURPOSE:To regulate moisture with high economy and reliability by evaporating and discharging defrosted water via a steam permeable hydrophobic porous tube disposed from a freezer to a cold storage chamber to regulate moisture in the chamber. CONSTITUTION:A freezer 2 and a cold storage chamber 3 are provided in refrigerator body 1, a defrosting water supply tube made of a steam permeable hydrophobic porous tube 4 is disposed from the freezer 2 to the chamber 3, defrosted water is evaporated and discharged to the chamber 3 via the tube 4 to regulate moisture in the chamber 3. With this structure, the defrosted water can be effectively used, a defrosted water drain member such as a drain pan, a water absorption ceramic plate, etc., which are heretofore required are not required. The defrosted water is the same as dew-condensed water, and does not contain kalk component. Accordingly, it can perform a clean humidifying to eliminate contamination of the tube 4, thereby performing moisture regulation with high economy and reliability. |
