The utility model discloses an
evaporator assembly and a refrigerator, and relates to the technical field of
refrigeration electric appliances. According to the embodiment of the utility model, the
evaporator assembly comprises a bracket, an
evaporator and a heating
pipe, the evaporator is mounted on the bracket; the heating
pipe is arranged on the support and used for heating and
defrosting the evaporator, and a heating core of the heating
pipe is a resistance sheet so as to form
radiation heating on the evaporator. Due to the fact that the
resistor sheet has the directional heating performance, more heat is radiated to the area needing to be heated, the
radiation quantity of the area not needing to be heated is small, heat loss is reduced, and meanwhile loss and the like caused by heating of the area not needing to be heated are avoided. The heating core made of the resistance sheet is adopted, more heat is emitted in a
radiation mode in the heating process, the propagation path for transmitting the heat out through electromagnetic wave radiation is short, and heat loss is low in the propagation process. Therefore, according to the heating structure, the deicing and
defrosting efficiency can be improved, the heat loss is reduced, and the loss caused by heating of the area which does not need to be heated is reduced.
