The present invention relates to a foam jig apparatus for a refrigerator, in particular, comprising: a bottom plate; a jig installed on the bottom plate and inserted into a refrigerator case; and a support plate installed on the bottom plate and supporting an outer wall of the refrigerator case, wherein the jig includes an ice-making chamber jig inserted into an ice-making chamber of the refrigerator case, and the ice-making chamber jig is contracted when a driving means provided therein is operated and expanded when the driving means is released to support an inner surface of the ice-making chamber. The foam jig apparatus for a refrigerator facilitates insertion of the ice-making chamber jig into a narrow space of the ice-making chamber, maintains an expanded state of the ice-making chamber jig by mechanical operation of the ice-making chamber jig even in a position or situation where the driving means cannot be operated, and prevent deformation such as shrinkage or expansion of the refrigerator case in advance when foaming liquid is injected through a rear outer wall of the refrigerator case and foamed, as occurrence of unfilled areas is suppressed and the foaming liquid can be filled evenly and generally at the same time. 본 발명은 냉장고용 발포지그장치에 관한 것으로서, 특히, 바닥판;과, 상기 바닥판에 설치되어 냉장고케이스에 삽입되는 지그;와, 상기 바닥판에 설치되어 상기 냉장고케이스의 외벽을 지지하는 지지판;을 포함하되, 상기 지그는, 상기 냉장고케이스의 제빙실에 삽입되는 제빙실지그를 포함하고, 상기 제빙실지그는, 내부에 구비된 구동수단의 작동 시 축소되고 상기 구동수단의 작동해제 시 확장되어 상기 제빙실의 내면을 지지하는 것을 특징으로 하여, 협소한 공간인 제빙실 내에 제빙실지그의 삽입이 매우 용이하고, 구동수단의 작동이 불가능한 위치나 상황에서도 제빙실지그의 기구적 작동을 통해 제빙실지그의 확장상태를 유지할 수 있으며, 냉장고케이스의 후측 외벽을 통해 발포액이 주입되어 발포 시 미충전구간의 발생을 억제시킴과 동시에 전체적으로 고른 충전이 가능함에 따라 냉장고케이스의 수축이나 팽창 등과 같은 변형을 미연에 방지할 수 있는 냉장고용 발포지그장치에 관한 것이다.
