Abstract:
Disclosed are a refrigerator and a refrigerator door opening apparatus. The refrigerator includes a cabinet forming a storage space; a door configured to open and close the storage space; a panel installed on a front surface of the door to form an external appearance; a door handle provided in the panel and operable to open the door; and a door opening apparatus coupled to the door handle and configured to assist in opening the door. The door opening apparatus includes a main module installed inside the panel and configured to protrude backward from the panel according to the operation of the door handle; and a sub-module provided at an end portion of the door corresponding to the main module and configured to protrude backward in conjunction with the main module to push the cabinet and open the door.

Claim (Index 12):
A refrigerator door opening apparatus comprising:\n a module case that defines a recessed space; a first rotator that is located inside the module case, that is configured to couple to a door handle of a refrigerator, and that is configured to rotate relative to the module case based on operation of the door handle; a first shaft that passes through an upper end of the first rotator, the first rotator being configured to rotate about the first shaft by a first angle; a second rotator that is coupled to a lower end of the first rotator, that is configured to rotate in a state in which the first rotator rotates about the first shaft, and that is configured to rotate about an axis by a second angle that is greater than the first angle, the second rotator extending vertically above the first rotator; a second shaft that passes through the second rotator at a position vertically below the first shaft and that extends along the axis, the second rotator being configured to rotate about the second shaft; and a slider that is supported by an upper end of the second rotator, that is located inside of the module case, and that is configured to, based on rotation of the second rotator, push a cabinet of the refrigerator to assist opening of a door of the refrigerator.
