Damper embedded in a home bar door of a refrigerator and method for manufacturing same

A refrigerator comprising:

• a refrigerator body;
• a refrigerator door for opening/closing the refrigerator body;
• an opening formed in front of the refrigerator door;
• a home bar door rotatably coupled to the refrigerator door for opening/closing the opening, the home bar door including:
• a base plate defining an interior surface of the home bar door;
• a cover plate defining an exterior surface of the home bar door, the cover plate connected with the base plate for forming an airtight space between the base plate and itself;
• a filler filled within the airtight space;
• and
• a filler injection opening provided at a bottom wall of the cover plate of the home bar door;
• a securing unit for selectively securing the home bar door in a closed position and opening the home bar door by pressing a front upper surface of the home bar door to an angle which the home bar door is dropped due to its own weight;
• and
• a damping member provided at the base plate of the home bar door for dampening the rotation of the home bar door, the damping member fixedly embedded in the home bar door by the filler in the airtight space,
• wherein the securing unit comprises:
• an engaging member provided at the base plate of the home bar door;
• and
• an engaging assembly provided at the refrigerator door,
• wherein an engaging-member-securing recess is provided at a surface of the base plate for securing an engaging member thereto,
• wherein a securing plate in a shape corresponding to the engaging-member-securing recess is formed at the end of the engaging member,
• wherein a fastening boss is provided on an inner surface of the base plate opposite the surface of the base plate having the engaging-member-securing recess,
• wherein a fastening member is inserted into the securing plate by first passing through the fastening boss and the base plate into the securing plate to fixedly secure the engaging member to the home bar door, and
• wherein the filler is injected through the filler injection opening after the home bar door is assembled with the engaging member and the damping member.
