A fan device for a refrigerator includes a hollow wall having a front wall portion and a rear wall portion for dividing an interior space of the refrigerator into a heat exchanging zone and a first portion of a storage zone. An air suction opening is formed in the rear wall portion for allowing an air cooled in the heat exchanging zone to be induced into the hollow wall. A fan is disposed in alignment with the air suction opening so as to induce the cooled air. A plurality of forward air outlet slots are formed in the front wall portion for allowing the air in the hollow wall to be blown to the first portion of the storage zone. A rearward air outlet is formed in the rear wall portion for allowing the air in the hollow wall to be blown to a second portion of the storage zone through a duct communicating the rearward air outlet to the second portion.

A fan device for a refrigerator comprising: a hollow wall having a front wall portion and a rear wall portion for dividing an interior space of said refrigerator into a heat exchange zone and a first portion of a storage zone; an air suction opening formed in said rear wall portion for allowing an air cooled in said heat exchanging zone to be induced into said hollow wall; a fan disposed in alignment with said air suction opening so as to induce said cooled air; a plurality of forward air outlet slots formed in said front wall portion for allowing said air in said hollow wall to be blown to said first portion; and a rearward air outlet formed in said rear wall portion at a side of said air suction opening for allowing said air in said hollow wall to be blown to a second portion of said storage zone through means for communicating said rearward air outlet to said second portion; wherein at least one flow settling plate is disposed in said hollow wall at a position above said air suction opening so as to separate a first air flow component and a second air flow component, said first air flow component blown upwardly from said fan and directed toward said rearward air outlet, said second air flow component flowing along an upper edge of said hollow wall toward said rearward air outlet.
