Refrigeration appliance

Abstract

A refrigeration appliance includes a storage compartment, two side walls delimiting the storage compartment in a width direction of the refrigeration appliance, a push-pull container located within the storage compartment, a partition plate located above the push-pull container, and a protrusion located on at least one of the side walls. The protrusion is configured to provide a mounting position for the push-pull container and the partition plate. A recess for mounting the partition plate is provided on the protrusion. The partition plate is accommodated in the recess of the protrusion, which makes full use of the side wall space occupied by the protrusion, eliminates a need to provide an additional space for mounting the partition plate, and significantly improves space utilization efficiency.
