Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0541172A2] The refrigerator comprises at least two compartments (1, 2), one (1) at lower temperature and the other (2) at higher temperature, and a frigorific circuit (8) including an evaporator (7) in a position of thermal exchange with the compartment (1) at lower temperature, a condenser (10) and a compressor (9) that can be disconnected periodically when the temperature inside the compartment (1) at lower temperature falls below a pre-set minimum value. A fan (16) determines a forced circulation of air through said evaporator (7) and inside said compartments (1, 2). There are valve means (22) that, when the compressor (9) is disactivated, are in a position where they close the compartment (1) at lower temperature against said forced circulation of air and where they convey all said air to the compartment (2) at higher temperature. <IMAGE>
