What is claimed is: 1. A refrigerator, comprising: a body forming an outer appearance of the refrigerator; a terminal detachably mounted on the body configured to control the refrigerator; wherein the body includes: a case openly mounted on the body configured to detachably receive the terminal therein; a case hollow configured to receive the case therein, and join the case thereto; wherein the case includes: an opened part configured to receive the terminal therethrough; a front part having a window for exposing a front face of the terminal; a bottom part for supporting a bottom of the terminal; side parts configured to support and guide opposite side surfaces of the terminal; and a rear part configured to receive a rear surface of the terminal; a power supply device mounted on or in the body configured to receive power from outside of the refrigerator, convert it to a predetermined charge power, and supply it to the terminal; an electric connection part connected between the power supply device and the terminal by a direct contact form when the terminal is detachably mounted on the body; wherein the electric connection part includes: a contact terminal part configured to electrically connect a charge battery in the terminal and the power supply device; and electric wiring configured to electrically connect a contact terminal part of the terminal and the power supply device; wherein the contact terminal part comprises: a first contact terminal at one side of the terminal configured for electrical connection to the charge battery; and a second contact terminal in the case configured to face the first contact terminal when the terminal is mounted in the case. 2. The refrigerator as claimed in claim 1, wherein the side parts of the case are configured to be disposed lower than opposite side parts of the terminal for easy insertion, into and drawing out of the terminal from the case. 3. The refrigerator as claimed in claim 1, wherein the rear part of the case is configured to be disposed lower than a rear part of the terminal for easy insertion and drawing out of the terminal from the case. 4. The refrigerator as claimed in claim 1, wherein the body further includes a rotation device connected between the case and the case hollow configured to open/close as the case is rotated. 5. The refrigerator as claimed in claim 4, wherein the rotation device includes hinges provided to side surfaces of the case and opposite side surfaces of the hollows. 6. The refrigerator as claimed in claim 5, wherein the hinge includes: a projection from each of opposite side surfaces of a lower part of the case which functions as a rotation axis of the case; and a hole in each of opposite side surfaces of the hollow corresponding to the projection. 7. The refrigerator as claimed in claim 1, wherein the power supply device includes: an AC adapter configured to receive power; a charge regulator configured to receive power from the AC adapter and supply a preset charge power; and a microcomputer configured to control the charge regulator and regulate the charge power supplied to the terminal through the electric connection part. 8. The refrigerator as claimed in claim 1, wherein the second contact terminal in the case is configured to face the first contact terminal when the terminal is mounted in the case such that a front face of the terminal faces the front, wherein the contact terminal part further includes a supplementary contact terminal in the case configured to face the first contact terminal when the terminal is mounted in the case such that a front face of the terminal faces the rear. 9. The refrigerator as claimed in claim 8, wherein the first contact terminal is fitted at one side of an underside of the terminal. 10. The refrigerator as claimed in claim 9, wherein the second contact terminal and the supplementary contact terminal are fitted to a bottom of the case in symmetry to each other. 11. The refrigerator as claimed in claim 10, wherein the second contact terminal and the supplementary contact terminal are fitted so as to be projected toward the terminal. 12. The refrigerator as claimed in claim 11, wherein the terminal includes a terminal recess in an underside thereof in symmetry to the first contact terminal, configured to receive the second contact terminal or the supplementary contact terminal to prevent the terminal from tilting, or the second contact terminal or the supplementary contact terminal from suffering damage. 13. The refrigerator as claimed in claim 1, wherein the terminal is detachably mounted on a door which forms a front face of the body. 14. The refrigerator as claimed in claim 13, wherein the terminal includes a display screen configured to display operation information of the refrigerator on a front fact thereof. 15. The refrigerator as claimed in claim 14, wherein the terminal receives an order in a touch screen fashion.
