ABSTRACT:
A refrigerator includes an upper freezer compartment and a lower fresh food compartment, with bottom and top walls respectively. A panel is mounted in front of the freezer rear wall to form a chamber containing an evaporator. An air flow separator, adjacent the rear of the compartments, extends through the freezer compartment bottom wall and the fresh food compartment top wall. It defines a first air passage for flow of relatively cold air to the fresh food compartment and a second air passage for return of relatively warm air to the evaporator chamber. A first member is mounted against the fresh food top wall to form a duct extending front to rear of the fresh food compartment. The duct is open adjacent the front of the fresh food compartment and communicates with the second air passage for return flow of warm air to the evaporator chamber. A second member is mounted against the panel within the freezer compartment to form a conduit communicating with the evaporator chamber and the first air passage for flow of cold air to the fresh food compartment. The conduit has at least one opening for discharge of cold air into the freezer compartment.
