Abstract
A door switch system is provided for energy saving in a refrigerator. The door switch system comprises a light detector, a first switch, and a second switch. The light detector is disposed in the storage space. The first switch is configured for switching the cooling fan according to an output from the light detector detecting external light. The second switch is configured for switching the storage-space light according to an output from the light detector detecting external light. When a door to the storage space is opened and the output is a first output indicating an open state of the door, the first switch is off to stop the cooling fan and the second switch is on to turn on the storage-space light. The light detector may detect the external light outside the storage space and provide the first or second output to the first and second switches.
