ABSTRACT:
A defrost-water vaporizer of a refrigerator includes a water reservoir mounted in a machine compartment with a compressor so as to receive defrost water resulting from the melting of frost adherent to an evaporator to be discharged outside a storage space of the refrigerator, a plurality of vaporizing elements absorbing the defrost water in the water reservior by capillarity and vaporizing the defrost water from the surfaces, a lower support formed from an elastic material and supporting the vaporizing elements in the water reservior, and an upper support formed from an elastic material and supporting the upper ends of the vaporizing elements. Lower ends of the vaporizing elements are inserted in the water reservoir so as to come into contact with the defrost water in the water reservoir. Upper ends of the vaporizing elements are positioned higher than the compressor.
