Abstract

This embodiment relates to a refrigerator and a control method for the refrigerator, wherein the refrigerator includes: a box body forming an upper storage space and a lower storage space; an upper door for opening and closing the upper storage space; a lower door for opening and closing the lower storage space to Drawer type structure; pull out and push in the track, connect the two sides of the lower door and the box body, so that the lower door can be pulled out or pushed in; the lifting device is installed on the lower door in a lifting manner, supporting food and containers from below; drive The part provides the power for pulling out and pushing the lower door and the lifting action of the lifting device; the main control part is set in the box to control the action of the driving part; the microphone module is set in the upper door to receive the user's voice. voice; and a voice module, which is arranged on the upper door and is electrically connected to the microphone module and the main control unit; the voice signal input to the microphone module is transmitted to the voice module and the main control unit to make the drive unit operate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a refrigerator and a control method for the refrigerator. Background technique [0002] Generally, a refrigerator is a home appliance capable of storing food at low temperature in an internal storage space covered by a door. For this reason, the refrigerator cools the inside of the storage space using cool air generated through heat exchange with refrigerant circulating in the refrigeration cycle, thereby being able to keep stored food in an optimal state. [0003] With the change of dietary life and the trend of high-quality products, recent refrigerators have become larger and more multifunctional, and refrigerators equipped with various convenience devices for improving user convenience are appearing. [0004] In particular, various refrigerators that enable a user to control the motion of the refrigerator by using voice have recently been developed. However, in the case of a refrigerator, there may be a problem of not bei...
