Description
Diese
Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Kühlschrank
gemäß dem Oberbegriff
des Anspruchs 1. Ein derartiger Kühlschrank ist in der
Jede Kühlschranktür ist üblicherweise mittels zweier Scharniere, die an unterschiedlichen Höhen des Gehäuses positioniert sind, aufgehängt. Diese Tür umfasst einen üblichen Tür-Einsatz, der mit einer äußeren Hülle ausgestattet ist, mit der ebenso bekannte Abstützplatten, die oben und unten an dem Tür-Einsatz positioniert sind und mit diesem fixiert sind, verbunden sind. Übliche Isoliermaterialien sind zwischen der Hülle und dem Tür-Einsatz platziert.each Refrigerator door is common by means of two hinges, which are at different heights of the housing are positioned, suspended. This door includes a usual Door insert, equipped with an outer shell is, with the well-known support plates, the top and bottom on the door insert are positioned and fixed with this, are connected. Usual insulation materials are between the shell and placed on the door insert.
Jedes Scharnier umfasst zumindest einen Arm, der von einem Element, mittels dessen das Scharnier an dem Gehäuse fixiert ist, hervorragt. Dieser Arm wird dann üblicherweise mit der Tür verbunden, normalerweise an der korrespondierenden Abstützplatte, wobei die Tür um das Ende des Arms herum rotiert. In bekannten Lösungen umfasst jede Abstützplatte einen Sitz zum Verkuppeln mit dem korrespondierenden Scharnierarm. Diese Kupplung wird mittels eines Stiftes erzielt, der in ein Gewindeloch eingreift, welches in einem freien Ende des Scharnierarms vorgesehen ist, und mit einer Buchse, welche starr mit der Abstützplatte verbunden ist, um das Scharnier auszuformen.each Hinge comprises at least one arm of an element, by means of the hinge on the housing is fixed, protrudes. This arm is then usually connected to the door, usually on the corresponding support plate, with the door around the Rotated around the end of the arm. In known solutions, each support plate comprises a seat for coupling with the corresponding hinge arm. This coupling is achieved by means of a pin which engages in a threaded hole, which is provided in a free end of the hinge arm, and with a bush, which is rigidly connected to the support plate to to form the hinge.
Diese Lösung, welche hinsichtlich der Betriebsbedingungen exzellent ist, umfasst jedoch eine relativ große Anzahl von Bauteilen, welche die Kosten jedes Scharniers sowie die zum Befestigen des Scharniers an der Tür erforderliche Zeit während der Produktionslinie beeinflusst (mit einem daraus resultierenden Einfluss auf die Kosten jedes Kühlschranks). Darüber hinaus muss die Tür so angeordnet sein, dass sie die Scharnier-Buchsen aufnimmt, und die Scharniersitze müssen geeignet ausgeformt und gegen das geschäumte Isoliermaterial, welches in die Tür injiziert wird, nachdem diese Sitze erzeugt wurden, versiegelt sein.These Solution, which is excellent in operating conditions but a relatively large one Number of components, which the cost of each hinge and the time required for attaching the hinge to the door during the production line influenced (with a resulting impact on costs each refrigerator). About that out the door be arranged so that it receives the hinge sockets, and the hinge seats need suitably shaped and against the foamed insulating material, which in the door injected after these seats were produced to be sealed.
Das Hauptziel der Erfindung ist daher, ein Kühlschrank-Türscharnier, beispielsweise für einen aufrechtstehenden Kühlschrank, zur Verfügung zu stellen, welches nicht nur leicht an der Tür befestigt werden kann, sondern bei dem ebenso die Tür und deren das Scharnier aufnehmende Teile einen einfachen Aufbau aufweisen.The The main object of the invention is therefore to provide a refrigerator door hinge, for example an upright refrigerator, to disposal to put, which not only can be easily attached to the door, but at the same time the door and their hinge receiving parts a simple structure exhibit.
Ein weiteres Ziel der Erfindung ist es, ein Scharnier zur Verfügung zu stellen, welches eine reduzierte Anzahl von Bauteilen und somit deutlich geringere Kosten als die bekannten Scharniere umfasst.One Another object of the invention is to provide a hinge which has a reduced number of components and thus significantly lower cost than the known hinges.
Diese und andere Ziele werden dem Experten klarer durch ein Scharnier in Übereinstimmung mit den beiliegenden Ansprüchen verdeutlicht.These and other goals become clearer to the expert through a hinge in accordance with the accompanying claims clarified.
Die Erfindung wird noch mehr aus den beiliegenden Zeichnungen, die auf dem Wege eines nicht beschränkten Beispiels zur Verfügung gestellt werden, ersichtlich, wobei:The Invention will be more apparent from the accompanying drawings, which the way of an unrestricted Example available can be seen, wherein:
Mit
Bezug auf diese Abbildungen umfasst ein Kühlschrank, beispielsweise ein
aufrechtstehender Kühlschrank,
ein übliches
Gehäuse
Jedes
Scharnier
Die
Stifte
Das
Scharnier wird nachdem die Tür
gebaut wurde, angebracht, wobei dessen Zusammenbau vollständig unabhängig hiervon
erfolgt. Der Arm
Nach
dieser Zusammenfügung
ist das Element
Die Erfindung ermöglicht es, dass die Tür auf einfache Weise ohne das Scharnier, welches nur nachträglich an der Tür fixiert wird, zusammengefügt wird. Das Scharnier umfasst ebenso eine geringere Anzahl von Bauteilen als bekannte Scharniere.The Invention allows it, that the door in a simple way without the hinge, which only retrospectively the door is fixed, is joined together. The hinge also includes a smaller number of components as known hinges.
