Refrigerator

Abstract

A refrigerator comprises: an inner case that forms a storage space; a plurality of fixing members coupled to the inner case so as to be protruding to the storage space, for preventing a foaming agent applied to a rear surface of the inner case from leaking to the storage space; and a guide rail fixedly-coupled to the fixing members, and to which a storage means is slidably coupled. Since components for slidably coupling a storage means to the inner case are simplified and an assembly process is facilitated, a production cost is reduced and a productivity is enhanced. Furthermore, the components for slidably coupling the storage means to the inner case are firmly coupled to the inner case, and a foaming agent is prevented from leaking to inside of the inner case, thereby enhancing the reliability of the product.

1 . A refrigerator, comprising:
 an inner case that forms a storage space;   a plurality of fixing members coupled to the inner case so as to be protruding to the storage space, for preventing a foaming agent applied to a rear surface of the inner case from leaking to the storage space; and   a guide rail fixedly-coupled to the fixing members, and to which a storage means is slidably coupled.   
   
   
       2 . The refrigerator of  claim 1 , wherein the guide rail is coupled to the fixing members while moving in a vertical direction. 
   
   
       3 . The refrigerator of  claim 1 , wherein a spacer for straightening one side of the inner case by pushing is provided at the guide rail so that the inner case can not be wrinkled under a state that the guide rail is coupled to the inner case. 
   
   
       4 . The refrigerator of  claim 1 , wherein through holes are formed at the inner case, and the fixing members are respectively coupled to the through holes. 
   
   
       5 . The refrigerator of  claim 4 , wherein the fixing member has a contact plate portion having larger than the through hole of the inner case and contacting one surface of the inner case, for preventing a foaming agent from leaking to inside of the storage space via the through hole. 
   
   
       6 . The refrigerator of  claim 5 , wherein the contact plate portion comes in contact with an inner surface of the inner case, the storage space. 
   
   
       7 . The refrigerator of  claim 5 , wherein the contact plate portion comes in contact with a rear surface of the inner case, an opposite surface to the storage space. 
   
   
       8 . The refrigerator of  claim 1 , wherein the guide rail includes:
 a rail body having a predetermined length;   a guide groove formed in a longitudinal direction of the rail body for inserting the storage container; and   a coupling portion disposed at one side of the rail body, and coupled to each of the fixing members.   
   
   
       9 . The refrigerator of  claim 8 , wherein the coupling portion is formed to have a hook shape. 
   
   
       10 . The refrigerator of  claim 8 , wherein the coupling portion is implemented as a protrusion having an omega shape. 
   
   
       11 . The refrigerator of  claim 1 , wherein the fixing member includes:
 an insertion portion having a predetermined length and penetratingly-coupled to the inner case;   a contact plate portion extending from one side of the insertion portion with a predetermined area, and contacts an outer wall of the inner case; and   a locking portion disposed at one side of the insertion portion, for insertion-fixing one side of the guide rail.   
   
   
       12 . The refrigerator of  claim 11 , wherein the locking portion is implemented as a coupling hole formed at one side of the insertion portion. 
   
   
       13 . The refrigerator of  claim 1 , wherein the fixing member includes:
 an insertion portion having a predetermined length and penetratingly-coupled to the inner case;   a contact plate portion extending from one side of the insertion portion with a predetermined area, and contacting an inner wall of the inner case; and   a locking portion disposed at one side of the contact plate portion, for insertion-fixing one side of the guide rail.   
   
   
       14 . The refrigerator of  claim 13 , wherein the locking portion has an omega shape. 
   
   
       15 . The refrigerator of  claim 13 , wherein a female screw thread is formed at an inner wall of the through hole of the inner case for inserting the insertion portion, a male screw thread is formed at an outer circumferential surface of the insertion portion, and the insertion portion and the inner case are screw-coupled to each other.
