Therefore, the user reverses the upper end of the operating lever 34 to press the switch 33 to the upper end of the operating lever 34, and selectively adjusts any one of water and ice by adjusting the time that the switch 33 is pressed. It can be withdrawn easily.

본 실시예에서는 스위치(33)가 작동레버(34)에 의해서 간접적으로 가압되도록 되어 있으나 이에 한정하지 않고, 스위치를 사용자가 직접 가압할 수 있도록 도어에 버튼 등을 배치하여 버튼을 통해 사용자가 스위치를 직접 가압하며 스위치의 가압시간을 조절하여 물과 얼음 중 어느 하나가 인출되도록 하는 것도 가능하다. In the present embodiment, the switch 33 is indirectly pressed by the operation lever 34, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the user can switch the switch through the button by arranging a button or the like on the door to directly press the switch. It is also possible to directly pressurize and adjust the pressurization time of the switch so that either water or ice is drawn out.

이상에서 상세히 설명한 바와 같이, 본 발명에 따른 냉장고는 스위치가 가압된 시간에 따라 물과 얼음 중 어느 하나가 선택적으로 인출되도록 되어 있으므로, 스위치의 가압 시간을 조절함으로써 물과 얼음 중 어느 하나를 선택적으로 간단하게 인출할 수 있게 되는 효과가 있다. As described in detail above, the refrigerator according to the present invention is to be selectively withdraw any one of water and ice according to the time the switch is pressurized, thereby selectively selecting any one of water and ice by adjusting the pressurization time of the switch There is an effect that can be easily withdrawn.
