Description

Food receiving container with a pivotable flap on a carrier shell and domestic refrigeration appliance

Technical Field

An aspect of the present invention relates to a food receiving container for a domestic refrigeration appliance. The food receiving container has a receptacle shell (Schale) for receiving food. The food-receiving container furthermore has a separate top cover relative to the receptacle, which can be placed onto the receptacle in order to close the receptacle. The food receiving container has a ventilation device by means of which an exchange of air between the surroundings and the interior of the food receiving container can be performed. The ventilation device has a pivotable flap (Klappe) which, in the open position, releases the ventilation opening and, in the closed position, closes the ventilation opening. Another aspect of the invention relates to a domestic refrigeration appliance having such a food receiving container.

Background

Such a domestic refrigeration appliance is known, for example, from WO 2004/038312 a 1. In this case, recesses are formed in the top cover of the food-receiving container, in which recesses a strip-shaped and flat plate is pivotably supported. It is therefore necessary that the lid itself be constructed with such a folded-over recess in order to be able to accommodate the flap therein. The flap can be swiveled about a swivel axis which, viewed in the height direction, is arranged within the top cover and thus within the height of the top cover. Therefore, a situation occurs when a flat flap is opened (konstelationen): in these cases, the upwardly projecting partial region of the flap stands relatively far upward. The steep, upwardly projecting, freely hanging part of the flap is thus pivotally oriented due to the flat configuration of the flap. In the open state of the flap, therefore, a position is also created in which the flap stands relatively far upward, so that, for this purpose, there is also a circumferentially free edge. Thus, on the one hand, in the open state of the flap, a corresponding upward space requirement is necessary, and on the other hand, collisions of other components and the like thereon may occur. In particular, a corresponding space requirement upwards in the height direction is necessary in order to completely open the flap. Furthermore, the flap is positioned offset to the rear relatively far in the depth direction. Thereby limiting the possibility of visibility into the interior. For this position, the user cannot directly see it or can only see it with difficulty.

SUMMERY OF THE UTILITY MODEL

The object of the present invention is to provide a food receiving container for a domestic refrigeration device and a domestic refrigeration device of this type, wherein the flap is configured in an improved manner with regard to its positioning and adjustment.

This object is achieved by a food receiving container and a domestic refrigeration appliance according to the invention.

An aspect of the present invention relates to a food receiving container for a domestic refrigeration appliance. The food receiving container has a receptacle for receiving food. The food receiving container furthermore has a cover which is separate from the receptacle shell and can be placed onto the receptacle shell in order to close the receptacle shell, and the food receiving container furthermore has a ventilation device by means of which an exchange of air between the surroundings and the interior of the food receiving container can be carried out. The ventilation device has at least one pivotable flap which, in the open position, releases a ventilation opening of the food-receiving container and, in the closed position, closes the ventilation opening. The flap has a longitudinal axis.

The movable cover can be supported on the supporting shell in a swinging way. The flap is supported only on the tray shell and not on the top cover. Due to this type of configuration, it is possible here for the flap not to be supported on the top cover, but rather on a separate carrier shell from the top cover. With such a configuration, the flap can be positioned farther forward, seen in the depth direction. Thus, the flap is arranged in a more exposed manner (exponenter). This makes it possible to operate directly by the user. In this case, it is not necessary for the flap to be actuated by a separate actuating unit or by an actuating element. Thereby, parts of the food receiving container can be saved. Furthermore, this positioning of the flap on the support shell also makes it easier for the user to see the position of the flap.

In an advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the flap is arranged pivotably on the support device of the food-receiving container. Such a support means is mounted directly on the cradle. The support means are in particular separate parts with respect to the cradle. The bearing device is arranged in particular directly on the console housing. In particular, the support means is a separate and independent component with respect to the flap. In an advantageous embodiment, the flap is arranged only directly on the support device. The flap is supported on the supporting shell through a supporting device.

In such a configuration with a bearing, both the bearing and the flap can be released from the receptacle without damage. This has advantages with respect to component cleaning. The replacement of the individual components mentioned is thereby also easier to achieve. In particular, a mechanically strong and weight-bearing component is also provided by such a support device. The component can thus be arranged on the cradle in an improved manner, so that a corresponding mechanical holding force is generated. In contrast, the flap can be constructed more finely (filigerator) and does not have to exert a holding force directly for holding on the carrier shell. This has advantages with respect to the size and weight of the flap. The flap can be constructed more finely due to the advantageous configuration of the bearing means, which makes it easier to pivot as well. This is advantageous when the user performs the swinging of the flap by directly touching the flap.

Preferably, the mounting device is mounted on the receptacle housing by means of a snap-in connection (Schnappverbindung) or a plug-in connection (Steckverbindung). This is a simple and yet highly functional mechanical connection. In particular, this results in an advantageous connection that can be released without damage.

In an advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the support means is an L-shaped guide rail (Schiene) in a cross section perpendicular to its longitudinal axis. By means of this special shaping, a particularly large-area mechanical contact with the cradle is achieved. A mechanically stable fit (Sitz) on the console housing is thereby advantageously achieved. On the other hand, a compact body is also obtained from such an L-shaped guide rail, which body is adapted to the shape of the cradle in the mechanical contact area. This saves installation space and the support device does not form an excessively protruding and heavy body. It is this L-shape that the rest on the cradle on two different surfaces, which are also arranged at an angle to each other, is advantageous. Thereby improving location security and location accuracy. In particular, such an L-shape can thus also be arranged on a receptacle of the receptacle, on which receptacle two surfaces lying against one another are inclined at a corresponding angle to one another. The guide rail is furthermore an elongated element, which is advantageously configured in such a way that a flap of correspondingly elongated design can be received over the entire or substantially the entire length thereof. In particular, the support device is configured, as seen in the direction of its longitudinal axis, to have a length such that: said length corresponds to between 80% and 120% of the length of the flap. The support device thus also forms a stable carrier.

In an advantageous embodiment, provision is made for the guide rail to have an upper guide-rail limb (oberen Schienenschenkel), and in an advantageous embodiment for the guide rail to have a vertical guide-rail limb (vertikalen Schienenschenkel). In particular, the guide rail upper limb and the guide rail vertical limb are configured integrally with one another. In particular, an L-shape is formed by this configuration. The upper limb of the guide rail is preferably arranged horizontally. Thus, the upper leg of the guide rail is configured as a top leg. In such a configuration, the supporting means can thus be placed from above onto the respective mounting region of the cradle. A correspondingly snug fit on this mounting region of the shell thus results due to the weight of the bearing means. The guide rail is correspondingly oriented by the guide rail vertical limb such that it is terminated on the front side (abgeschlossen). Advantageously, therefore, this guide rail vertical limb is also a blind (blend) on the front side. The region of the console shell located behind it can therefore be covered on the front side by the rail vertical limb. Furthermore, the rail vertical limb thus also serves as a further abutment surface or as a stop for a corresponding surface in the mounting region of the console housing.

In an advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the upper limb of the guide rail has a coupling region at the rear edge, as viewed in the depth direction. The coupling region has in particular a channel. Preferably, the tray housing has a coupling joint bar (Koppelsteg). The coupling bar is in particular formed in a mounting region of the console housing, to which the support device is to be fastened. In order to connect the support device to the support shell, the coupling bar can be inserted into the groove of the coupling region of the limb on the guide rail. A mechanically stable and precisely matched fit is achieved by such a configuration. The bearing means can thus be mounted particularly advantageously on the cradle at this location.

In addition or alternatively, it is provided that the rail vertical limb has a coupling region at the lower edge. In particular, the coupling region has a channel. A coupling web of the receptacle can be inserted into the channel, said coupling web being designed to connect the support device to the receptacle. Thus, such coupling can also be made at these specific connection points between the supporting means and the shell. In particular, a corresponding plug-in connection is thus formed, wherein the plug element is formed by a coupling bar and the other plug element (in particular the corresponding plug element) is formed by a channel. In particular, it is provided that the two coupling webs and the two channels mentioned are formed. In a particularly advantageous manner, therefore, an exactly matched and stable fit of the bearing device on the console housing in at least two spatial directions (in particular in the height direction and in the depth direction) can be achieved. Since the channels and the coupling webs are oriented in different spatial directions, a particularly stable holding of the support device on the support shell in different spatial directions is thereby produced. These coupling webs are formed in particular by the upper boundary wall of the installation region and the edge region of the vertical boundary wall of the installation region.

In particular, these coupling regions are formed as folded-over end pieces at the limb edges (or limb edges) of the mentioned rail limbs. These end regions of the rail limbs are thus U-shaped in cross section. They may also be referred to as hook-like configurations.

In an advantageous embodiment, provision is made for the bearing means to be placed on the upper edge of the cradle. In particular, the bearing means rest on the upper side in the top wall (in particular the upper limiting wall) of the upper edge of the cradle. In particular, the bearing means also rests on the front side of the front wall (in particular the vertical delimiting wall) of the upper edge. The front wall and the top wall of the receptacle are directly joined to each other. The front wall is preferably vertically oriented. The top wall is particularly horizontally oriented.

In an advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the bearing device has an integrated pivoting groove (Schwenkrinne). Preferably, the pivot groove is formed on the upper side (or outer side) of the rail limb. In particular, the pivoting groove is formed on the upper side of the horizontal limb of the guide rail. The horizontal supporting edge of the guide rail is an upper supporting edge of the guide rail. The swing groove extends linearly. The pivot groove is oriented with its groove axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of the bearing device. The pivot groove has a C-shaped configuration in cross section and thus perpendicular to its longitudinal axis. This means that the pivot groove is not closed in the direction of the orbit around its longitudinal axis.

In an advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the flap has a coupling strip. The coupling bar engages in the pivot groove in the coupled state with the support device. The coupling web is guided into the pivot groove in such a way that it can be moved therein relative to the pivot groove, in particular can be pivoted about the longitudinal axis of the pivot groove.

It may be provided that the pivot groove is at least partially elastic. In this type of configuration, it can be achieved that the coupling webs snap into the pivot grooves when coupling with the pivot grooves. It can also be provided that the pivot groove is of rigid design in this respect. In this type of configuration, it can then be provided that the coupling bar is pushed into the pivot groove in the axial direction at one end of the pivot groove and in the direction of the pivot axis. It is preferably provided that the width of the opening of the pivoting groove, measured in the direction of the pivoting groove, is smaller than the diameter of the coupling web. The coupling webs can be configured, for example, as round bars. Opening in azimuth of the pendulum groove (azimutalen)

) The small design size of the connecting bar can avoid the coupling bar from being in the swinging grooveSliding out on the azimuth.

In an advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the coupling webs are exactly matched and are therefore also arranged in the pivot grooves in a form-fitting manner. Thereby, a high-precision swinging movement of the flap can be realized.

Preferably, the pivot groove is open to the rear, as viewed in the depth direction. This means that the opening of the pivot groove is oriented in the azimuth direction backwards. The width of the opening in the azimuth direction through the pivot groove, viewed in the direction of rotation about the pivot axis, is also predefined and defines the pivot width of the flap about this pivot axis. In this way, it is also possible to form a stop in each case in a particularly precise manner by the pivoting groove edge, so that the pivoting movement of the flap is precisely predetermined. Thereby, it is also achieved: the first edge of the pivot groove, which delimits the opening of the pivot groove, forms a first stop by means of which the first stop position of the flap is also precisely predefined. This can then be the closed position of the flap. The second edge of the pivot groove, which delimits the opening, forms a further stop which delimits the pivoting movement of the flap. In particular, the flap is in the open position when it is arranged in the lateral position and accordingly touches on the second edge.

In an advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the pivot groove has a convexly curved outer side. In an advantageous embodiment, the flap rests on the concavely curved inner side of the receptacle of the pivot groove. This means that the receptacle surrounds the pivot groove at least partially from the outside. The pivot groove is thus at least partially recessed with its outer side into this receptacle of the flap. In particular, a form-locking mutual abutment of the inner side on the one hand and the outer side on the other hand is achieved here. In particular, when the flap is pivoted, the inner side of the receiving portion of the flap slides along on the outer side of the swing groove. This configuration thus enables a multiple, staggered guiding coupling principle between flap and bearing. A particularly stable pivoting with very precise guidance of the movement is thereby achieved. Furthermore, due to this configuration, the swing groove is covered by the flap. The pivot groove is thus also protected and on the other hand also does not appear visually. Thus, a very clean overall appearance is also achieved.

In an advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the flap has a snap-in element. The bearing device advantageously has at least one corresponding snap-in element. The catch element of the flap catches on a corresponding catch element of the bearing in the closed position of the flap. The closed position of the flap can also be locked by means of such a configuration. Accidental pivoting of the flap from the closed position into the open position is thereby avoided. In particular, the latching elements are designed separately and separately from the pivot bearing (Schwenklager). This means that the snap-in element is not an integral part of the above-mentioned advantageous receptacle, but rather is formed separately therefrom, in particular also at a distance, on the flap.

In an advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the flap has a front gripping edge. The gripping edge may be directly gripped by a user. This is achieved in particular both in the closed position and in the open position of the flap. Thereby, the user can easily directly manipulate the flap.

In an advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the support device together with the flap is arranged on the console as a front and/or top-mounted attachment (Aufsatz). In this way, a favorable exposure position is achieved both for accessibility and for hand handling and also for functionality.

It is advantageously achieved that the mounting region of the receptacle, on which the bearing device is mounted directly, is formed by at least one delimiting wall which delimits the grip of the receptacle. The grip of the bracket is in particular constructed integrally with the bracket. This constitutes, in particular, a grip cavity (Griffmulde) which can be gripped from below. Thus, the grip concavity is open downward. The grip cavity is bounded by a top wall and a vertical front wall. The top wall is in particular a wall: the rail upper limb which is advantageously present and mentioned above is arranged on the wall. The front wall is in particular a wall that: the vertical limb of the guide rail rests on the front side on the wall.

In an advantageous embodiment, it is provided that, in the closed state of the flap, the rear edge of the flap rests on the front edge of the lid top.

In an advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the flap is not of planar design when viewed in a cross section perpendicular to its longitudinal axis. In particular, the flap is designed to be folded once (einmal gelwinkelt) when viewed in the cross section. In particular, the angular position is such that the internal angle between the first corner of the flap (Winkelteil) and the second corner of the flap is greater than 90 ° and less than 150 °.

In an advantageous embodiment, it is thereby achieved that the flap projects upwards from the height level not beyond the top cover both in the closed state and in the open state. It is thus possible to avoid: the undesirable edges and exposed edges that occur in the prior art as a result of the upwardly protruding region when the flap is opened. In particular, the second corner, which is located at the rear as viewed in the depth direction, is oriented horizontally in the closed position of the flap. In particular, the second corner is arranged flush with the top side of the top cover. The first corner is a corner at the front in the depth direction, which in the closed position slopes obliquely forwards and downwards. In the open position of the flap, the second corner is tilted downward, so that it is oriented rearward in an inclined manner. In this case, in an advantageous embodiment, the first corner is oriented horizontally.

Another aspect of the invention relates to a domestic refrigeration device having at least one food-receiving container according to the above-mentioned aspects or advantageous configurations thereof. The domestic refrigeration appliance may be a refrigerator or freezer appliance or a combination refrigerator and freezer appliance. The domestic refrigerator has a housing in which at least one receiving space for food is formed. The food receiving container can be arranged in the receiving space and (in particular in the closed state of the cover on the receptacle) constitutes its own, self-integrated storage area. The food receiving container can be, in particular, a fresh food container, in which individual storage conditions (in particular, individual temperatures and/or air humidity) can be set.

This makes it possible to set storage conditions different from those in the remaining area of the receiving space. This is particularly advantageous for the storage of certain foods such as fruits or vegetables or meat (e.g. fish).

It can be provided that the domestic refrigerator has a humidifying device, by means of which a personalized air humidity in the food receiving container can be set.

Preferably, the food receiving receptacle is removable from the receiving space and refillable and thus also a portable (or removable) receptacle.

Detailed Description

Fig. 1 shows a domestic refrigeration device 1 in an exemplary illustration, the domestic refrigeration device 1 being designed as a combination refrigerator-freezer device. The domestic refrigeration appliance 1 has a body 2 provided with an inner container 3. The inner container 3 delimits with its walls a first interior space or receiving space 4 (the first interior space or receiving space 4 being a refrigerated space) and a second interior space or receiving space 5, which is arranged below it by way of example and is separate and independent with respect to it (the second interior space or receiving space 5 being a refrigerated space). In general, the receiving space 4 is used for ice-free cold storage of refrigerated goods, preferably at a temperature between +4 ℃ and +8 ℃. However, the receiving space 4 can also be constructed as a zero-degree grid, in particular for keeping fruits or vegetables fresh. The door 6 closes the receiving space 4 on the front side, which receiving space 4 is accessible with said door 6 open.

In general, the further receiving space 5 is used for deep cooling of the frozen goods, for example at-18 ℃. With the freezer space door 7 open, the receiving space 5 can be accessed.

A refrigerated goods container (or fresh food container or food receiving container) having a top cover 9 and a drawer or tray 10 which is separate and independent therefrom is mounted in a withdrawable manner in the receiving space 4 above. As shown, an additional separate cover 11 (for example in the form of a partition wall, for example a glass pane) can be arranged above the top cover 9. The freshness retaining container constitutes a food receiving container 8.

Furthermore, the inner container 3 has two

vertical side walls

3a and 3b opposite to each other.

The food receiving container 8 is separated from the remaining volume of the receiving space 4 at least by the lid 11.

The food receiving container 8 can be taken out of the receiving space 4 in a non-destructive manner. In the state of being inserted into the receiving space 4, it is also provided that the receptacle 10, in the still supported state in the receiving space 4, can be moved back and forth in the depth direction and thus in the z direction, so that the interior of the receptacle 10 can be accessed.

The food receiving container 8 is arranged directly above a preferably already present further container 8', seen in the height direction (y-direction). Preferably, it may be provided that the food receiving receptacle 8 is arranged at the location of the receptacle 8'. In addition to or instead of the food receiving container 8, the container 8' may also be a food receiving container 8. Preferably, when the food receiving container 8 is configured at the position of the container 8', this food receiving container 8 extends further forward in the depth direction than the container arranged directly above it.

Fig. 2 shows a perspective view of a subregion of the domestic refrigeration appliance 1 in which the food-receiving container 8 is arranged. In this embodiment, the food receiving container 8 is arranged at a lower position, at a container 8' (as it is already shown in fig. 1). The container 8' can be arranged directly above it.

The food receiving container 8, which can be completely removed from the receiving space 4, is provided with a ventilation device 12. In this ventilation device 12, an air exchange between the surroundings and the volume space or interior 13 of the food receiving container 8 can be achieved.

The food receiving container 8 is configured to: the ventilation device 12 is not supported on the top cover 9, but only on a separate housing 10. Thus, the food receiving container 8 is also fixed to the receptacle 10. The tray housing 10 has a front wall 14. In an advantageous embodiment, the grip 15 is formed in the front wall 14. The grip 15 is formed integrally with the front wall 14. In this embodiment, the gripping portion 15 is configured as a gripping cavity which can be gripped from below. Viewed in the depth direction, the grip 15 is bounded forward by a front boundary wall 16. The front-side delimiting wall 16 is oriented vertically. The front-side boundary wall 16 is a front wall of the grip portion 15. The grip 15 is delimited upwardly by a further delimiting wall 17 (fig. 6). The further bounding wall 17 is a top wall. The ventilation device 12 is arranged directly in the mounting region 18 (fig. 2) of the receptacle 10 and is mounted thereon. In particular, the mounting region 18 is formed by the two walls 16 and 17. The ventilation device 12 is thus mounted directly on the upper region of the receptacle 10, in particular of the front wall 14.

The ventilation device 12 has a flap 19. Flap 19 is configured as an elongated strip. The flap 19 is a plate. The plate member extends in the width direction. In particular, the plate member extends over the entire width of the cradle 10 (or substantially the entire width of the cradle 10). Flap 19 is preferably constructed of plastic. Flap 19 is in particular integrally formed.

The ventilation device 12 furthermore has a support device 20. The support device 20 is shown in a perspective view in fig. 3. The support device 20 is in particular constructed in one piece, preferably from plastic. The flap 19 is pivotably supported on the carrier shell 10. In particular, this takes place by means of the support device 20. The supporting device 20 is directly fixed to the cradle 10. In particular, the support device 20 is arranged directly on the mounting region 18. The bearing device 20 thus rests in particular directly on the outer side of the limiting wall 17 and on the outer side or front side of the limiting wall 16.

The support means 20 is an L-shaped guide rail (seen in a cross-section perpendicular to its longitudinal axis a). The support device 20 has a rail upper limb 21. The rail upper limb 21 has a coupling region 22. The coupling region 22 is formed at the rear end (viewed in the depth direction) of the rail upper limb 21. The rail upper limb 21 is formed as a plate-shaped strip. The coupling region 22 has a channel 23. In particular, the coupling region 22 is formed by a curvature of the rear edge of the rail upper limb 21. The coupling region 22 is formed as a U-shaped groove.

Furthermore, the support device 20 has a rail vertical limb 24. The guide rail vertical limbs 24 are in particular designed as plate-shaped strips. The rail vertical leg 24 and the rail upper leg 21 directly engage each other. With this configuration and orientation, the L-shape of the support device 20 is constructed. The rail vertical limb 24 has a coupling region 25 on its lower end. The coupling region 25 has a channel 26. In particular, the coupling region 25 is formed by a curvature of the lower edge of the vertical limb 24 of the guide rail. Furthermore, the bearing device 20 has a pivot groove 27. The pivot groove 27 is formed integrally with the bearing device 20. In particular, the pivot groove 27 is formed on the upper side of the rail upper limb 21. The pendulum groove 27 has a groove axis B. The groove axis B is in particular parallel to the longitudinal axis a. The pivot groove 27 is formed with an opening 28 in the direction of the path around its groove axis B. This means that the pivot groove 27 does not completely circumferentially close in the azimuthal direction. The opening 28 is formed rearwards (viewed in the depth direction). Thus, the swing groove 27 (viewed rearward) is open. The opening 28 is bounded in the direction of circumvention about the groove axis B by a first edge 29 and a second edge 30. These

edges

29 and 30 simultaneously also serve as stops for flap 19 when flap 19 is pivotably supported on support device 20. Furthermore, in an advantageous embodiment, the support device 20 has corresponding snap elements 31. The counter catch element 31 is a preferably raised projection. The counter-latching element 31 is formed in particular at the transition between the two

rail limbs

21 and 24. The counter catch element 31 is configured for catching with a catch element 32 (fig. 4). The closing position of flap 19 is locked in particular by snap-in elements 32 snapping into corresponding snap-in elements 31.

In fig. 3, it is also provided in an advantageous embodiment that a recess 20a can be formed at the transition between the

guide limbs

21 and 24, said recess 20a being oriented upward. The recess 20a preferably extends over the entire length of the transition.

Fig. 4 shows the support device 20 and the flap 19 mounted thereon in a perspective representation. Flap 19 is shown here in the first pivoted position. The first pivoted position corresponds to the closed position of the ventilation device 12. This closed position of the ventilation device 12 is shown both in fig. 2 and in fig. 6. The ventilation opening (or air gap) between the receptacle 10, in particular the front wall 14, and the front wall 33 (fig. 6) of the lid 9 is then covered by the flap 19.

The flap 19 is mounted on a support device 20 so as to be pivotable about a pivot axis. The pivot axis coincides in particular with the groove axis B.

In the exemplary embodiment, flap 19 is not of flat design, as can be seen in fig. 4. In particular, flap 19 is formed with a single bend in a cross section perpendicular to longitudinal axis C of flap 19. In particular, in this embodiment, flap 19 has a first corner 34 and a second corner 35. The internal angle between these two

corners

34 and 35 is preferably greater than 90 ° and less than 170 °. In particular, the internal angle is between 130 ° and 170 °.

A gripping edge 36 is configured on the front first corner 34. The user can directly grip on this gripping edge 36 so that the flap 19 can be pivoted directly.

On the underside 37 of the flap 19, a receptacle 38 is integrally formed therewith. The receiving portion 38 has a concave inner side 39. On this inner side 39, the receiving portion 38 fits on a correspondingly convexly curved outer side 40 (fig. 3) of the pivot groove 27. In particular, the two bear against one another in an exactly fitting (or form-fitting) manner. Further, the flap 19 has a coupling joint bar 41. The coupling webs 41 are configured as wires (Strang) or rods. In the coupled state with the support device 20, the coupling bar 41 is arranged in the interior 42 of the swiveling groove 27 (fig. 3). Here too, these respective surfaces lying against one another are shaped complementarily relative to one another. In particular, a pivoting movement of flap 19 relative to support device 20 in the state of being arranged on support device 20 can be achieved by this coupling. Preferably, the clear width of the opening 28 in the direction of the detour about the groove axis B is smaller than the diameter of the coupling bar 41. Thereby preventing the coupling bar 41 from slipping out in the radial direction from the inner portion 42 of the swing groove 27.

As can also be seen in fig. 4 and 5, coupling webs 41 are formed on the carrier 43 on the inside. The carrier 43 is a bow (B ü gel) which is connected to the receptacle 38. The carrier 43 extends through the opening 28 in a radial direction. Thus, when flap 19 is pivoted about groove axis B relative to support 20, carrier 43 either touches

edge

29 or 30. The two pivot states can thus be achieved by definition. If the carrier 43 comes into contact with the edge 29, the first pivoted position of the flap 19 shown in fig. 4 is reached. In this first pivoted position, the ventilation device 12 is closed. In fig. 5, a second pivoted position of flap 19 is shown, which is different from fig. 4. In this position, the ventilation device 12 is open. Here, the carrier 43 rests on the edge 30 bounding the opening 28.

Fig. 6 shows the food receiving container 8 in a perspective sectional view. The mounting of the support device 20 on the mounting region 18 is shown here. It can be seen that the rear edge of the delimiting wall 17 is guided into the channel 23. The rear edge is a coupling bar 17 a. Accordingly, the lower edge of the vertical delimiting wall 16 is introduced into the channel 26. The lower edge is a coupling tab 16 a. The rail upper limb 21 rests on the upper side or on the outside of the upper limiting wall 17. The guide rail vertical limb 24 rests on the front side on the outside or front side of the delimiting wall 16. As in fig. 2, the snap-in state between the snap-in element 32 and the corresponding snap-in element 31 can also be seen in fig. 6. The support means 20 are thus directly mechanically connected to the cradle 10 (in particular in the mounting region 18). In particular, the mounting region 18 is an upper front region of the cradle 10. In particular, the delimiting wall 17 constitutes the top wall of the upper edge and the delimiting wall 16 constitutes the front wall of the upper edge. In the closed state of flap 19 (as this is shown in fig. 2 and 6), rear edge 44 of flap 19 rests on front edge 33 of lid 9.

Furthermore, it can be seen in fig. 6 that, in an advantageous embodiment, the insert strip 45 is formed integrally with the limiting wall 17 on the limiting wall 17. The insert strip 45 projects upwards. The insert strip 45 preferably extends over the entire length of the limiting wall 17. In the coupled state of the support device 20 with the delimiting walls 16 and 17, the insertion strip 45 is inserted (in particular positively) into the recess 20 a.
