US Patent 11624550 Vacuum adiabatic body and refrigerator

A vacuum adiabatic body and a refrigerator are provided. The vacuum adiabatic body includes a support that maintains a vacuum space between a first plate and a second plate, and a heat resistance unit comprising at least one radiation resistance sheet that blocks radiation heat transfer in the vacuum space so as to reduce heat transfer between the first plate and the second plate. The support includes two support plates, and the at least one radiation resistance sheet is supported by at least one support protrusion provided on a bar, which couples the two support plates to each other, to maintain an interval between the first plate and the second plate.
