Abstract

The present invention relates to a refrigerator, and more particularly, to a refrigerator that facilitates keeping and drawing out a container for storing wine. A refrigerator according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a freezing chamber and a refrigerating chamber; a wine storage compartment that is formed between the freezing chamber and the refrigerating chamber and forms a storage chamber of a wine storage container; a wine door that selectively shields the storage chamber; a storage unit that is drawably provided in the wine storage compartment; and a holder that is formed in the wine storage compartment for holding the wine storage container and has a shape corresponding to the wine storage container. The refrigerator according to the embodiment of the present invention has an advantage of easily keeping wine under a proper environment and conveniently drawing out wine.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A refrigerator, comprising:
 a freezing chamber and a refrigerating chamber;   a wine storage compartment that is formed between the freezing chamber and the refrigerating chamber and forms a storage chamber of a wine storage container;   a wine door that selectively shields the storage chamber;   a storage unit that is drawably provided in the wine storage compartment; and   a holder that is formed in the wine storage compartment for holding the wine storage container and has a shape corresponding to the wine storage container.   
     
     
         2 . The refrigerator according to  claim 1 , wherein a partitioning part that partitions the wine storage compartment from the freezing chamber or the refrigerating chamber is provided at one or more side of the wine storage compartment. 
     
     
         3 . The refrigerator according to  claim 1 , wherein a vibration reducing member that reduces vibration transferred to wine is provided in the wine storage compartment. 
     
     
         4 . The refrigerator according to  claim 3 , wherein the vibration reducing member includes:
 a first reducing member that is provided at one side of the holder; and   a second reducing member that is provided at another side of the holder.   
     
     
         5 . The refrigerator according to  claim 3 , wherein the vibration reducing member is interposed between the storage unit and the holder. 
     
     
         6 . The refrigerator according to  claim 1 , wherein the storage unit includes a first storage unit and a second unit that store at least any one of a wine glass and a wine glass 
     
     
         7 . The refrigerator according to  claim 6 , wherein the first storage unit includes:
 a plurality of storages that store the wine bottle; and   a hanger unit that is formed spaced from the storage and holds the wine glass.   
     
     
         8 . A refrigerator, comprising:
 at least one input unit into which a command is inputted depending on the kind of stored wine;   a memory unit that memorizes a present temperature value corresponding to the command inputted by the input unit;   a display unit that displays the command inputted by the input unit or the temperature value memorized in the memory unit;   a temperature sensing unit that senses the temperature of a wine storage compartment;   a cool air supplying unit that is formed in the wine storage compartment and selectively supplies cool air; and   a control unit that allows the cool air supplying unit to be selectively opened by comparing the preset temperature value with the current temperature sensed by the temperature sensing unit.   
     
     
         9 . The refrigerator according to  claim 8 , further comprising:
 a heater that supplies heat to the wine storage compartment when the current temperature of the wine storage compartment is higher than the preset temperature.
