Refrigerator

Abstract

A refrigerator having an improved assembly structure of doors, in which upper, lower and both side covers are simply assembled with frames of the doors without any gap between the covers and the frames. Holes are formed through the upper and lower covers, and protuberances inserted into the holes are formed on both side covers. The holes are formed at both side ends of the front surfaces of the upper and lower covers so as to have a designate depth and width, and the protuberances are formed at upper and lower ends of the front surfaces of both side surfaces so as to have a depth and width corresponding to those of the holes. A grip is formed integrally with one of both side covers, opposite to a hinge shaft of the door.

Problems solved by technology

Since the upper, lower and both side covers of the freezing and refrigerating doors of the above-described conventional refrigerator are not interconnected to each other, but are fixedly connected to the corresponding frame, the inattentive assembly of the upper, lower and both side covers with the frame causes gaps among the upper, lower and both side covers.

Further, the repeated opening and closing of the doors extends the gaps among th
