REFRIGERATOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18583596 titled 'REFRIGERATOR
The patent application describes a refrigerator with a unique door design that includes a see-through portion and a transparent panel assembly that can become transparent or opaque based on the On/Off states of the door light.
- The refrigerator has a cabinet forming a storage space and a door for opening and closing the storage space.
- The door is equipped with a receiving space and a see-through portion that communicates with the receiving space.
- A door light illuminates the rear space of the door, enhancing visibility.
- The transparent panel assembly shields the see-through portion and can switch between transparent and opaque states.
- A heat insulating member insulates the perimeter portion of the transparent panel assembly, improving energy efficiency.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be applied to various types of refrigerators and freezers. - It can also be used in commercial refrigeration units in supermarkets and restaurants.
Problems Solved: - Enhances visibility inside the refrigerator without compromising insulation. - Provides a modern and innovative design for refrigeration appliances.
Benefits: - Improved visibility of stored items. - Energy-efficient design with heat insulation. - Modern and sleek appearance.

Original Abstract Submitted
A refrigerator includes: a cabinet forming a storage space; a door for opening and closing the storage space and provided with a receiving space; a see-through portion extending through the door and communicating with the receiving space; a door light for illuminating a rear space of the door; a transparent panel assembly for shielding the see-through portion and becoming transparent or opaque so as to selectively visualize the see-through portion according to On/Off states of the door light; and a heat insulating member, formed along a perimeter of the transparent panel assembly, for insulating a perimeter portion of the transparent panel assembly.
