To light an intended portion of a storage room in a more effective manner with a lighting device provided on a wall surface of the storage room to utilize light emitted from a light source more effectively.SOLUTION: A lighting device (10) provided on a side wall (8) of a storage room of a refrigerator includes a light source (3) and a cover (6). The cover (6) has: a light emitting part (63) which emits light, which enters from a light incident part (60) and travels in a direction from the front to the rear along the side wall (8), into the storage room (2); and an end light emission shape (64) which is provided at a rear end (6r) protruding from the side wall (8) into the storage room (2) to emit light to the outside. The end light emission shape (64) has a light emission surface (75) oriented to the downstream in a travel direction of the light traveling from the front to the rear.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 【課題】収容室の壁面に設けられた照明装置にて収容室の意図した部分をより効果的に照らして光源から発せられた光をより有効に利用する。【解決手段】冷蔵庫の収容室の側壁（８）に設けられた照明装置（１０）は、光源（３）と、カバー（６）と、を備える。カバー（６）は、光入射部（６０）から入射して側壁（８）に沿って前から後に向かう方向に進行する光を収容室（２）の内部に出射させる光出射部（６３）と、側壁（８）から収容室（２）庫の内部に突出する後端部（６ｒ）に設けられた光を外部に出射させるための端部光出射形状（６４）と、を有し、端部光出射形状（６４）は、前から後に向かう光の進行方向の下流を向いた光出射面（７５）を有する。【選択図】図３
