The invention provides a refrigerator. The refrigerator comprises a refrigerator body and a door body, wherein a hinge body is arranged on the refrigerator body and is provided with a first hinge shaft and a second hinge shaft; a first guide groove and a second guide groove are formed in the door body; after mounting of the door body and the refrigerator body is finished, the first hinge shaft is positioned in the first guide groove, and the second hinge shaft is positioned in the second guide groove; in an opening process of the door body, the first guide groove moves relative to the first hinge shaft, and the second guide groove moves relative to the second hinge shaft; and in a moving process, the first hinge shaft applies an acting force to the first guide groove to drives one end, which is away from the first guide groove, of the second guide groove to be close to the second hinge shaft, so that the door body moves in the horizontal direction. Compared with the prior art, the refrigerator has the characteristics that in an opening process of the door body of the refrigerator, the door body moves in the horizontal direction relative to the refrigerator body, and therefore, the door body of the refrigerator does not intervene with a surrounding wall in the opening process.

An expandable cooler is provided. The cooler includes an insulating portion defining a storage cavity and an expandable portion defining a second storage cavity. The expandable portion is adapted to move between an open and a closed position. The expandable portion may be fixedly attached to the insulated portion. In a further embodiment, a telescoping handle is attached to the cooler. A hook is provided on the telescoping handle and is adapted to be received in a corresponding slot in the expandable portion. The expandable portion may be moved between the open and closed position via the handle.

Refrigerator including a body forming an outer appearance of the refrigerator, a terminal detachably mounted on the body for controlling the refrigerator, a power supply device at one side of the body, for receiving power from an outside of the refrigerator, converting to a predetermined charge power, and supplying to the terminal, and an electric connection part connected between the power supply device and the terminal.
