Patent ID: 8261573

Claim:
A refrigerator, comprising: a main body; a refrigerating chamber defined at a first portion of the main body; a freezing chamber defined at a second portion of the main body, the second portion of the main body being different than the first portion of the main body; a cold air generation chamber for the freezing chamber defined at an uppermost part of the main body and configured to generate cold air used in regulating temperature of the freezing chamber, the cold air generation chamber for the freezing chamber extending across the uppermost part of the main body from a front portion of the main body to a rear portion of the main body; a cold air generation chamber for the refrigerating chamber defined at the uppermost part of the main body and configured to generate cold air used in regulating temperature of the refrigerating chamber, the cold air generation chamber for the refrigerating chamber extending across the uppermost part of the main body from the front portion of the main body to the rear portion of the main body; a freezing chamber cold air inlet that allows air to flow from the freezing chamber into the cold air generation chamber for the freezing chamber; a refrigerating chamber cold air inlet that allows air to flow from the refrigerating chamber into the cold air generation chamber for the refrigerating chamber; and a machine room defined at the uppermost part of the main body, the machine room being positioned between the cold air generation chamber for the freezing chamber and the cold air generation chamber for the refrigerating chamber, the machine room extending across the uppermost part of the main body from the front portion of the main body to the rear portion of the main body, wherein the freezing chamber cold air inlet is disposed at a front portion of the cold air generation chamber for the freezing chamber and the refrigerating chamber cold air inlet is disposed at a front portion of the cold air generation chamber for the refrigerating chamber.
