Abstract:
A refrigerator and a method for controlling an automatic door thereof are disclosed. The refrigerator includes a magnet mounted to a door and a magnetic field sensor mounted to a main body, so as to detect whether the door is open or closed and a pressed amount of the door according to a change in distance between the magnetic field sensor and the magnet even without a direct contact with the door. This can make appearance of the refrigerator beautiful and prevent an occurrence of deformation, deterioration, wear, and the like of a contact portion due to the contact with the door.

Abstract:
A refrigerator (1) includes a main body (10) including a storage compartment (11, 12), a door (13, 14) opening and closing the storage compartment (11, 12), an ice making device disposed in the storage compartment (11, 12) or on a back surface of the door (13, 14), a water tank (40) disposed above the ice making device (20) to supply water for making ice pieces into the ice making device (20), and an ice bin () disposed under the ice making device (20) to store ice pieces manufactured in the ice making device (20). The ice making device (20) includes an ice making tray (210) including a plurality of ice making chambers (212) in which the water for making the ice pieces is filled, and an ejector (260) extending from an upper central portion of the ice making tray (210) in a longitudinal direction of the ice making tray (210) to pass through both ends of the ice making tray (210). The ejector (260) is maintained in a fixed state during the water supply, ice making, and ice separation, and the ice making tray (210) rotates at an angle of about 360° in one direction with respect to the ejector (260).
Abstract:
A refrigerator according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a cabinet in which a refrigerating compartment is provided; a first door connected to the cabinet to open and close the refrigerating compartment and having an opening; a housing provided in the first door and accessible through the opening therein; an ice making room provided in the housing; a storage room that is provided below the ice making room and maintained at a temperature different from that of the refrigerating compartment; a guide duct provided below the ice making room to guide discharge of ice; a second door connected to the first door; a dispenser disposed on a front surface of the second door; and a discharge duct provided in the second door, wherein, when the second door is closed, the guide duct communicates with the discharge duct, and ice made in the ice making room is discharged to the dispenser.
