Abstract: A refrigerator including: an inner case forming a storage compartment with an open front side and comprising a plurality of plates formed by injection molding; an outer case coupled to an outside of the inner case; and an insulation material between the inner case and the outer case. The plurality of plates includes an upper plate and a plurality of lateral plates coupled to the upper plate. The upper plate includes an upper plate body and an upper plate coupler. The each of the plurality of lateral plates includes a lateral plate body and a lateral plate coupler. The upper plate coupler includes an upward extension portion extending upward from the upper plate body and spaced from the lateral plate body. The inner case includes a groove recessed upward extending in a front and rear direction between the upward extension portion and the lateral plate body.

Abstract: Disclosed is a refrigerator capable of minimizing generation of undercuts when manufacturing components of an inner case by injection molding. The refrigerator includes an inner case forming a storage compartment, and comprising a plurality of plates formed by injection molding; an outer case coupled to an outside of the inner case to form an external appearance; and an insulation disposed between the inner case and the outer case. A rear plate corresponding to one of the plates comprises: a drain hole formed through the rear plate to discharge water inside the inner case to the outside of the inner case; an inclined surface inclined downward toward the drain hole to allow water inside the inner case to flow to the drain hole; and an undercut prevention surface disposed below and spaced apart from the inclined surface, and forming a portion of an outer surface of the rear plate.

Abstract: A refrigerator includes a first inner case, a second inner case to be coupled to the first inner case, an outer case coupled to the first inner case and the second inner case, and an insulating material between the outer case, and the first inner case and the second inner case and the outer case. One of the first lower plate and the second upper plate includes an extension extending from the one of the first lower plate and the second upper plate, and a first coupler provided in the extension. An other one of the first lower plate and the second upper plate includes a second coupler to be coupled to the first coupler, and the first lower plate is coupled to the second upper plate by coupling the first coupler to the second coupler to prevent the insulating material from leaking between the first and second couplers.
