PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a refrigerator in which a size of an actuator is not made large and a door kept in its opened state is closed positively in an automatic manner.SOLUTION: This invention relates to a refrigerator control device in which an actuator for use in moving a door of the refrigerator is controlled and the door is closed automatically. When the door is closed, the door is moved in its closing direction after the door is moved by a predetermined amount in its opening direction. There are provided an opened or closed state signal receiving part for receiving a signal indicating an opened or closed state of the door; and an actuator control part for controlling the actuator by using the opened or closed state signal received by the opened or closed state signal receiving part to move the door. The actuator control part performs the first operation for moving the door in its closing direction when the door is opened and the second operation for moving the door in its closing direction after the door is moved in an opening direction by a predetermined amount when the door does not become a closed state by the first operation.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5 【課題】アクチュエータを大型化することなく、開状態にある扉を確実に自動で閉状態にする冷蔵庫を提供する。【解決手段】冷蔵庫の扉を動かすためのアクチュエータを制御して、前記扉を自動で閉じる冷蔵庫用制御装置であって、扉を閉める場合に、前記扉を開方向に所定量移動させた後に閉方向に移動させるようにした。扉が開閉状態を示す開閉状態信号を受け付ける開閉状態信号受付部と、前記開閉状態信号受付部より受け付けられた開閉状態信号を用いて前記アクチュエータを制御して前記扉を移動させるアクチュエータ制御部とを備え、前記アクチュエータ制御部が、前記扉が開状態の場合に、前記扉を閉方向に移動させる第１動作と、当該第１動作により前記扉が閉状態とならない場合に、前記扉を開方向に所定量移動させた後に閉方向に移動させる第２動作とを行う。【選択図】図５
