Said cover (22) is rotationally arranged in such a manner that it automatically changes between the closed end position (38) and the open end position (37) by displacing its centre of gravity, such that the position in which it is, is between both stable end positions (37, 38).

Description

Household refrigerating device

Technical field

The present invention relates to a kind of household refrigerating device, there is at least one refrigerating compartments, described refrigerating compartments can be by means of at least one open and close, but at least one container of open and close is arranged in described compartment, with for receiving article to be cooled, container has matrix, cover cap and for cover cap pivotally being arranged on at least one supporting structure on matrix.

Background technology

The household refrigerating device of type described in preamble is known in prior art usually, be very inconvenient and need certain proficiency by means of the contents that only hand approaches container, this is because cover cap always relies on immediately the gravity oneself to close when hand shifts out from container.Yet, if it is very full to stretch into the hand of container, need second hand to open container.

Summary of the invention

Therefore, the objective of the invention is to improve common household refrigerating device, make and load more simply or unload container in future.

The household refrigerating device of the described type of a kind of like this preamble of utilization of the present invention has been realized above-mentioned purpose, wherein, cover cap is supported rotationally, a place in all due to the displacement of its center of gravity, automatically being turned to these two stable final positions while making any position of described cover cap between the final position of opening of the final position of the closure of cover cap and cover cap.

Therefore, in any position, cover cap or renovate according to the position of its center of gravity and automatically drop into its closed final position or the final position of opening and remain there in stable mode.Usually only there is the user can change described that open or the closed final position of cover cap.Therefore, when can be for example the container of grease container or bakery containers during in open mode cover cap with the danger of undesirable mode closure, reduced significantly.Because the final position of the closure of cover cap and the final position of opening are stable, a therefore available container that the hand loading or unloading is opened.In addition, after this operation, the container of opening can stay open, if the user finds that this is favourable.

At open position, cover cap or the center of gravity of renovating can be positioned at a side of described at least one supporting structure, can be positioned at the opposite side of supporting structure in closing position.Therefore, by the center of gravity that makes simply cover cap, from one of supporting structure, move by side to opposite side, can make cover cap move to turningly the final position of stable closure or the final position of opening.Therefore, do not need other member that cover cap is remained on to two stable final positions.This very simple solution makes the cost manufacture that cover cap can be extremely low.In addition, do not need additional member can affect energetically the design of container yet, and then affect energetically the master-plan of the inner compartment of household refrigerating device.Especially, renovating with matrix of container can be made by transparent material, for example plastics or glass.

In order to make cover cap remain on described two final positions in stable mode, described at least one supporting structure can be from the bottom near-earth setting as far as possible of matrix.By making the bottom as far as possible near-earth setting of supporting structure from matrix, mean that the distance between the center of gravity of supporting structure and cover cap is large as far as possible, thereby, make cover cap can be pivoted to the torque of its stable final position also large as far as possible.Make cover cap be pivoted to the torque of its stable final position larger, these two final positions are just more stable.In addition, supporting structure approaches bottom and arranges and has also improved the pleasant overall appearance of container, thereby has improved master-plan attractive in appearance of the inner compartment of household refrigerating device, and this is because the article that are placed in container block this supporting structure at least partly.

During final position that the cover cap of described at least one container is advantageously opened at it only with the outstanding top external boundary that surpasses matrix of less degree.Thereby renovating of container is removable, and can in the inside of at least one refrigerating compartments, not produce collision, even during the final position of opening in it at cover cap.When container for example is arranged at least one inwall or constructs or move at least one refrigerating compartments and shift out in the mode of drawer, suppose to have restriction, the collisionless motion particular importance of the container of opening above the container in the inside of refrigerating compartments.

Cover cap or renovate and/or matrix can advantageously have respectively side plate.Side plate from the side at least partly or fully cover cap cover cap and/or matrix, thereby article to be cooled remain in container reliably when container is moved out of.

Thereby, if particularly being configured to one and/or matrix and side plate thereof, cover cap and side plate thereof be configured to one, container has attracting design, and simple, therefore manufacture economically.

Described at least one supporting structure can advantageously have at least one support, and described support is molded on matrix and/or cover cap integratedly.Support is molded in integratedly on matrix and/or cover cap and contributes to obtain attracting design and economic manufacture.

If described at least one supporting structure advantageously has at least one recess and can be snapped at least one protuberance in described recess, cover cap is with together with matrix can preferably just be placed on by individual part, wherein, recess can be arranged on matrix, protuberance can be arranged on cover cap, otherwise or.

If described at least one support particularly also has at least one recess or at least one protuberance that can coordinate with protuberance on described cover cap or matrix or recess, also contribute to simplify the assembling of matrix and cover cap.

Matrix and/or cover cap and/or side plate and/or described at least one support can advantageously be made by transparent material.Therefore, the user can directly see the contents of container.The use transparent material also makes container seem limpid, light and visually has the outward appearance of pleasant.

In another embodiment, the bottom of matrix can advantageously can be loaded or unload at described at least one container a side, particularly front side have the rising edge.This rising edge prevents that cooling of articles from dropping in undesirable mode when container is opened.

Especially, the side that cover cap also can be loaded or unload at described container is drawn downwards, with the bottom of cover cap matrix.By making described cover cap cover cap bottom, advantageously prevent that the lower limb of cover cap from bumping against bottom when cover cap is pivoted to its closed final position.The user finds this impact sound troublesome usually.On the contrary, when the face towards bottom of cover cap, by contacting on described matrix, can hear gentleness closed in a low voice of cover cap, thereby improve the general impression of high-quality household refrigerating device.

The zone of the bottom of the rising edge of the bottom of matrix and the cover cap matrix of described cover cap can preferably form the joint cavity.Thereby this joint cavity advantageously is hidden with respect to the user, but still be convenient to cover cap is pivoted to the final position that it is opened.

Especially, container can also have the backstop for cover cap alternatively, and described backstop preferably is arranged on matrix and makes cover cap have and is less than the pivoting angle of 90 °.Therefore, if be that closed container only needs to touch slightly described renovating for the flip-flop movement of renovating, this is enough.

In order to utilize better the space of described at least one refrigerating compartments, described at least one container can be arranged on described at least one door.Container can advantageously be fixed on door in knock-down mode.

If described at least one container, for keeping heavy item to be cooled, can advantageously be constructed it in the mode of drawer.

In order to make design different, decoration panel can advantageously closely be arranged on matrix and/or on cover cap with bottom.For this reason, decoration panel preferably has the kayser connection.For dissimilar household refrigerating device, this makes container can have different designs.

According to a favourable improvement of the present invention, renovate and two side flange is positioned in described matrix, and be connected on the sidewall or side plate of matrix in inboard by means of the rotary type supporting structure.Alternatively, the side plate of renovating also can be cross over outward on the sidewall of matrix, and is connected on described sidewall by means of outer rotary type supporting structure.The rotary type supporting structure preferably arranges in mode roughly placed in the middle with respect to the degree of depth of receiving member respectively at this.This makes before the critical point of the flip-flop movement of renovating and aspect position afterwards and distributes about equally, in this critical point place, renovates the final position closed along it or the upset of the direction of the final position opened.At it, closed final position and the angular range between its unsettled centre position and the angular range between its unsettled centre position and its final position of opening are now advantageously about equally.

Of the present invention other improve record in the dependent claims.

The accompanying drawing explanation

Below, referring to the accompanying drawing that comprises schematic diagram, the present invention and improvement thereof are described in more detail, accompanying drawing comprises:

Fig. 1 shows the front view of the inner bag of the apparatus for household use that is equipped with receiving member of the present invention;

Fig. 2 shows the sectional view of the receiving member that passes through closed Fig. 1 of watching from vertical side;

Fig. 3 shows the sectional view of the receiving member of the Fig. 1 by opening; And

Fig. 4 shows by the cover cap of the receiving member in the cutaway view of described inner bag and Fig. 1-3 or three diverse locations renovating.

The specific embodiment

In Fig. 1-4, the element of identical function and efficacy pattern means with identical Reference numeral respectively.

Fig. 1 shows the household refrigerating device 10 with refrigerating

compartments

11,12 and 13, and described refrigerating compartments can open and close by means of door 14 and 15.For keeping article to be cooled, such as the containers of butter, birds, beasts and eggs, sausage, cheese, meat, vegetables etc., be contained in refrigerating

compartments

11,12 and 13 and be contained on door 14 and 15.Household refrigerating device 10 can be refrigerator, vertical freezer, horizontal refrigerator, modular refrigeration/reach in freezer etc. especially.

Fig. 2-4 show container or receiving member 20, for example butter or bakery containers, and it has the sub-container 21 of matrix or bottom, cover cap 22 and supporting structure, particularly rotary type supporting structure 23.In Fig. 2, cover cap or renovate 22 final positions 37 in opening, in Fig. 3, in closed final position 38.Container 20 is positioned between door 14 the column of Fig. 1 at this.

Matrix 21 has side plate 24, and cover cap 22 has side plate 25.Cover cap 22 also is provided with wall 26, i.e. antetheca in its front portion.Crown member or roof 32 are molded on this antetheca with the angle of 90 ° roughly.In the final position 38 of the closure of the cover cap 22 of Fig. 3, this crown member 32 is from top cover cap bottom container or matrix 21.The closed final position 38 (referring to Fig. 3) at this, the antetheca 26 of cover cap forms the antetheca of containers 20.Therefore, at the final position 37 (referring to Fig. 2) of opening, container 20 does not have antetheca.The matrix 21 of container 20 only is comprised of bottom 27, two longitudinal side walls that are arranged on both sides or side plate 24 and rear wall 33.This also can save alternatively.This matrix 21 is attached to the inwall of door 14 with fixed form, particularly be fixed on this inwall.For this reason, its bottom 27 and/or its rear wall 33 mechanically are connected to the inwall of door 14 or are installed in another way on this inwall.But matrix 21 also can be attached to the inwall of door 14 alternatively in the mode of vertical movement by means of latch system.It also can be arranged on the inwall of door 14 alternatively removably.Thereby, crown member or roof 32, stretch out vertically downward and two side plates 25 and the antetheca 26 that are molded on the vertical side of the edge of roof 32 form cover caps or renovate 22.Roof 32 and antetheca 26 are configured to general planar at this.Can see from the side, cover cap particularly has roughly L shaped.The Mass Distribution that roof 32, two side plates 25 and antetheca 26 determine to renovate 22 substantially at this, this Mass Distribution determines the position of centre of gravity of renovating.

Renovate two side flanges 25 of 22 and be positioned in matrix 21, and be internally connected on its sidewall or side plate 24 by means of rotary type supporting structure 23.At this, the degree of depth with respect to receiving member 20 is arranged on the position of approximate centre to rotary type supporting structure 23.Alternatively, the side plate of renovating also can stride across the sidewall of matrix outward, and is connected to these sidewalls by means of outer rotary type supporting structure.The rotary type supporting structure all preferably is arranged on the position of approximate centre at this with respect to the degree of depth of receiving member.This makes before the critical point of the flip-flop movement of renovating and aspect position afterwards and distributes about equally, in this critical point place, renovates the final position closed along it or the upset of the direction of the final position opened.At it, closed final position and the angular range between its unsettled centre position and the angular range between its unsettled centre position and its final position of opening are now advantageously about equally.

The final position of opening 37 at cover cap 22, center of gravity is positioned at the right side (referring to Fig. 2) of the pivot center 35 of supporting structure 23, be positioned at a side of the inwall of deflection door 14 with respect to the pivot center 35 of supporting structure 23, and at closed final position 38, renovate 22 center of gravity and be positioned at the left side (referring to Fig. 3) of the pivot center 35 of supporting structure 23, the pivot center with respect to supporting structure 23 is positioned at the side away from the inwall of door 14.Center of gravity with respect to the pivot center 35 of supporting structure 23 from right to left and displacement from left to right mean, the cover cap shown in Fig. 2 and 3 or to renovate 22 final position be stable.The pivot center 35 of supporting structure 23 generally perpendicularly extends at the drawing of this and Fig. 2 and 3; In other words, the leading edge almost parallel ground of the bottom 27 of it and matrix 21 extends.

Unsettled centre position 34 is arranged between two stable

final positions

37,38 by means of the rotary type supporting structure 28 for cover cap 22, in described unsettled centre position 34, cover cap 22 can be due to himself weight when not having masterpiece to be used on it and ground as shown in arrow 30 automatically overturns or is pivoted to its closed final position or its final position of opening (referring to Fig. 4).In this unsettled centre position 34, cover cap or renovate 22 center of gravity above supporting structure 23 in vertical with bottom 27 and by the line of pivot center 35.The chain-dotted line that this centre position 34 extends across the pivot center 35 of supporting structure 28 on the vertical direction in Fig. 4 illustrates.

At this between closed final position 38 and unsettled centre position 34 and this unsettled centre position 34 and the final position 37 opened between upturned position, cover cap or renovate in the bistable state mode supported.This means, renovate the 22 sub-surface places when 27 the open front towards matrix 21 in bottom of its center of gravity and automatically fall closed final position 38 due to himself weight before pivot center 35 time, and renovate 22 and also due to himself weight, automatically be turned to the final position 37 (watching along depth direction) of opening corresponding to the sub-surface of the rear wall towards matrix 21 33 of bottom 27 after the center of rotation 35 at rotary type supporting structure 28 time when its center of gravity.

Unsettled centre position 34 is corresponding around top dead-centre or the position at 12 o'clock of the circular motion of pivot center 35 with cover cap 22, and forms the balance critical point of the flip-flop movement of cover cap.Especially, for cover cap or renovate 22 pivot center 35 be selected to the center of gravity that makes to renovate automatically rest on pivot center before and afterwards, the final position 37 that makes it automatically move to closed final position 38 or open.Compare renovating 22 clear height that are turned to this critical point the circular arc of final position 37 process when (and oppositely) of opening from closed final position 38 with renovating 22 front top edge 36, renovate 22 front top edge 36 and there is lower or less clear height at closed final position 38 and the final position 37 opened.This means, can prevent all the time the collision of the inner bag of front top edge and refrigerating plant 10, particularly its top edge or outer peripheral edge or by its backstop.

Supporting structure 23 as far as possible closely arranges with the bottom 27 of matrix 21, with the moment of the maximum possible of generation cover cap 22.The approaching arrangement in supporting structure 23 and bottom also means, the support 28 of supporting structure can be configured to very short and very low, makes it can be awared hardly.Therefore, support 28 particularly arranges in an unobtrusive manner when watching from front portion towards the open front of matrix and from the side when its side part or side plate 24 are watched.

At the final position of opening 37 of cover cap 22, cover cap 22 is the outstanding top external boundary (referring to Fig. 2 and 4) that surpasses matrix 21 on less degree only.Therefore, at the final position of opening of cover cap 22, enough distances (referring to Fig. 4) still having between the border 31 above cover cap of cover cap 22 and refrigerating compartments.Especially, the front top edge 36 of cover cap 22 at an angle of 90 is low than at unsettled centre position 34 regional the time at the final position 37 of opening, therefore, its position during with unsettled centre position 34 is compared, and now it is lower on the height of the direction on the plane towards bottom 27 when the final position 37 of opening.Similarly, also its upright position than in non-stable centre position 34 time is low when closed final position 38 for the front top edge 36 of cover cap 22.This prevents that cover cap 22 from unexpectedly resting on the position between its closed final position 38 and its final position of opening 37 reliably, on this position, its protuberance, particularly its front top edge 36 are too far outstanding, therefore can touch other members of the household refrigerating device 10 that is arranged on its top, such as the cover cap of inner bag and/or compartment bottom, shelf, pallet, drawer etc.This means, the door 14 with container 20 can be closed all the time reliably, and cover cap 22 can not touch or collide any parts or the member of refrigerating plant 10.This advantageously prevents from damaging container 20.

Leading edge or front lip 29 (referring to Fig. 3) that bottom 27 also has a rising, renovate 22 with box lunch and prevent that cooling of articles from dropping from container 20 in undesirable mode while opening.Edge 29 particularly extends in the mode that tilts to raise.Alternatively, it also can vertically raise.

Final position 38 in the closure of Fig. 3, the antetheca of the cover cap 22 under upset or wall 26 are with downward protuberance cover cap bottom 27 and rising edge 29, thereby, in the intermediate space at the upset towards bottom 27 after this protuberance or the vertical edge 29 raise, form engagement concave portions 200 (referring to Fig. 3).Bottom 27 also can be prevented when being pivoted to closed final position that by antetheca 26 cover caps the lower limb of the antetheca 26 of cover cap 22 from clashing into bottom 27.Alternatively, with it, the surface towards rising edge 29 reaches on the edge 29 that is touching on upset or vertical rising (referring to Fig. 3) cover cap 22, thereby, stop its further flip-flop movement forward.

Backstop 201 limits the final position of opening 37 of cover cap 22.Due to backstop 201, produce the pivoting angle that is less than 90 ° between the final position 37 that cover cap 22 can be opened at it and its closed final position 38, thereby the final position 37 that it is opened at it is in obliquity.This obliquity makes cover cap 22 to be pivoted to its closed final position 38 by touch wall 26 with hand relatively gently simply, this is because the center of gravity of cover cap 22 now only has relatively short lever arm and can easily before non-stable centre position 34, move through it with respect to pivot center 35, thereby cover cap 22 automatically stirs or be turned to its closed final position 38.

In the exemplary embodiment of Fig. 4, backstop 201 is formed by the flange on the top edge of the rear wall 33 that is positioned at matrix 21, described flange curves 90 ° and extend forward along the direction of the open front of container 20 with respect to the plane of rear wall 33, and when the final position 38 of the closure of cover cap with the crown member 32 of cover cap 22 in identical upright position.At closed final position 38, crown member 32 is roughly concordant with this flange portion 201, make receiving member 20 from top basically quilt cover cover or seal.

Decoration panel 202 is attached in the lower area of the antetheca of renovating 22 or wall 26, that is, be installed in the zone of lower limb of antetheca 26 (referring to Fig. 3 and 4), thereby make the design of container 20 can be endowed personalization.

In a word, therefore, the cover cap of container or renovate to be supported for and make its automatically final position in two stable upsets.When the center of gravity of renovating is positioned at before pivot center, renovates and be turned to its closed final position.When the center of gravity of renovating is positioned at after pivot center, it automatically is turned to its final position of opening.Approach bottom by the preferred lowland of the pivot center that makes to renovate and install additional, mean matrix and renovate all can by transparent material for example plastics make, and can not make the rotary type supporting structure damage this effect.Especially, certainly the form of the panel of neighboring area of the side plate that approaches bottom that is arranged in matrix or ornamental strip of also can advantageously take provides visual occlusion as the rotary type supporting structure, when the final position 38 closed is watched, the decoration panel 202 of the lower edge of described panel or ornamental strip and the antetheca 26 renovated roughly evenly extends.These cover cap bars mean, when particularly when closed final position 38 is watched in the past, supporting structure 23 is also by cover cap.

The rotary type supporting structure particularly can easily be formed by quarter butt/groove structure.Therefore, circular cam or molded and shaped cylindrical pin element can be respectively from outer side mold built in the inwall of renovating 22 side plate 25, and sting and join or be snapped in the corresponding cylinder shape groove or hole on the inwall of side plate 24 of matrix 21.In this way, especially simply rotary type supporting structure 23 be integrated in to the side plate 24 of matrix 21 and renovate between 22 side plate 25.Now save alternatively support 28 fully.
