The sectional area of the opening 215 of the refrigerating space 210 is larger than that of the stirling cooler 250, and the sliding rail 230 faces the opening 215 so that the stirling cooler 250 can be pushed out of or back from the opening 215 along the sliding rail 230. The opening 215 may be opened at the top of the refrigerating space 210, in which case the sliding rail 230 is vertically disposed and the stirling cooler 250 slides up and down. The opening 215 may also be opened on a side wall of the refrigerating space 210, in which case the sliding rail 230 is transversely disposed, may be disposed on a top wall of the refrigerating space 210, and may also be disposed on a side wall of the refrigerating space 210, and the stirling cooler 250 horizontally slides.

The pulsating heat pipe has a small pipe diameter, a refrigerant is filled in the pulsating heat pipe, and liquid columns and air plugs with different lengths are formed in the pipe by the refrigerant under the action of surface tension. At the evaporation end, the working medium absorbs heat to generate bubbles, expands and boosts pressure quickly, and pushes the working medium to flow to the low-temperature condensation end. The air bubbles at the condensation end are cooled, contracted and broken, the pressure is reduced, and due to the pressure difference between the two ends and the pressure imbalance between the adjacent pipe sections, the working medium flows between the evaporation end and the condensation end in an oscillating way, so that the heat transfer is realized. Compared with the traditional heat pipe 261, the pulsating heat pipe has simple structure, low cost and small volume; and can be bent more freely. The pulsating heat pipe is less influenced by gravity on heat transfer, the heat pipe 261 is a pulsating heat pipe, and the relative position of the refrigerating space 210 of the refrigerating space 220 can be set at will, so that the design of the refrigerator is facilitated.

Due to the arrangement mode, on one hand, the phenomenon that the temperature of the Stirling refrigerator 250 is increased to influence the operation of the Stirling refrigerator 250 can be avoided, and on the other hand, the phenomenon that the temperature of the refrigerating space 210 is increased to influence the temperature of the refrigerating space 220 can be avoided.

Alternatively, the fan 273 is provided corresponding to the compression chamber 251 of the stirling cooler 250.
