Patent ID: 11859899

Abstract:
A refrigerator (100), comprising: a cabinet (110), having at least one storage compartment (140) defined therein, and having side walls (114); and a light source (500), which is disposed at the side wall (114), and configured such that light emitted by the light source (500) obliquely propagates backwards inside the box body (110), so as to provide illumination for the at least one storage compartment (140). According to the refrigerator (100), the light source (500) is provided at the side wall (114) of the cabinet (110), and light emitted by the light source (500) obliquely propagates backwards inside the cabinet (110) to provide illumination for the storage compartment (140); thus, illumination for the storage compartment (140) would not be affected by a shelf, and the light propagates backwards so that no dazzling occurs to the user's visual experience.
