Abstract:
A refrigerator (100), which comprises a first inner container (10), a second inner container (20) located under the first inner container (10), a water tank assembly (30) provided in the first inner container (10), an ice maker (40) provided in the second inner container (20), and a water pipe assembly (50) which establishes communication between the water tank assembly (30) and the ice maker (40); the refrigerator (100) further comprises a first pre-embedded member (60) attached to the outer side of the top wall of the second inner container (20); the first pre-embedded member (60) is provided with an extension portion (601) protruding towards the direction of the second inner container (20); the extension portion (601) is arranged in a first through hole (201) in the top wall of the second inner container (20), and the extension portion (601) is provided with a passage hole (6011) in communication with the ice maker (40); the water pipe assembly (50) comprises a water pipe (501) located in a foam layer of the refrigerator (100), and one end of the water pipe (501) close to the ice maker (40) passes through the passage hole (6011). Compared to traditional segmented pipelines, the water pipe in the current refrigerator does not have a joint within the foaming layer, and is thus easy to install and solves the problem of segmented pipelines being prone to leaking; the present invention ensures the ice-making capability of refrigerators, and improves user experience.
