Abstract

The present invention proposes a refrigeration display cabinet, comprising: a cabinet; a display rack fixed inside the cabinet; an air channel arranged at least partially surrounding the display rack; a partition mounted in the air channel to separate the air channel into an inner air channel and an outer air channel, wherein the partition is provided with an opening for connecting the inner air channel and the outer air channel; an evaporator arranged in the inner air channel, wherein the side of the evaporator is located at or near the opening; and a damper assembly fixed at the opening of the partition, wherein the damper assembly is capable of opening or closing the opening. The refrigeration display cabinet according to the present invention can defrost the evaporator simultaneously from the bottom and side thereof during the defrosting mode, thus improving defrosting efficiency.
