Freezer

The present innovation relates to a freezer with an upwardly open cooling container for storing frozen food, which with an at least partially transparent front wall «?. is provided.

As is well known, at least in the upper area it facilitates the transparency Front wall in a freezer of the type mentioned gives the customer the view of the range of frozen food, with as Another advantage is that the contents of the freezer (ice cream, ready meals, vegetables, fish, etc.) are also made Further distance can be seen, which proves to be an advantage especially in large supermarkets, where there are usually several Freezers with one product type each are set up.

In the case of the type of freezer, however, occurs through the severely hypothermic transparent front wall inevitably the problem of fogging due to humidity condensing on its surface causing the front wall to be compromised.

In the freezers of known design, this problem is in the Usually solved by heating the transparent front wall by means of an electrical resistor, which is usually from a Fine filament embedded in the wall. This prevents fogging, but at the price of one higher energy requirements of the freezer. Although the resistor itself has only minimal real power, its Power consumption nonetheless is not negligible as it

In addition, part of the from heat given off to him in the cooling container and thereby causes an additional power consumption of the cooling unit and consequently constant increased consumption of electrical energy.

The present innovation is based on the task of creating a freezer without this disadvantage and thus the problem of fogging the transparent front wall completely to solve.

This task is renewed by a freezer of the described Type solved, which is characterized in that it comprises a transparent plate which is inside the cooling container is arranged parallel and at a distance from the transparent front wall so that between the plate and the front wall a There is a gap that is open at the top and bottom.

Further features and advantages associated therewith emerge from the following description of an exemplary embodiment of an innovation according to the invention Freezer shown in the drawings.

Show it:

The cooling container (2) comprises a transparent front wall (5), which extends over the entire length of the cooling container (2) and can for example consist of a glass plate.

A box profile (6) is attached to the upper edge (7) of the front wall (5) and defines a supported on the front wall (5), to this open chamber (8), within which a preferably designed as a fluorescent tube on the box profile (6) Lamp (9) is attached. The chamber (8) thus serves as a seat for the lamp (9), which is exactly opposite the front wall (5) is arranged.

The chamber (8) is open at the top and bottom so that the air is unhindered can circulate.

In the cooling container (2) a transparent plate (10) is also attached, which can consist of glass, for example; she is arranged parallel to the transparent front wall (5) at a distance of at least one centimeter from this.

This creates between the front wall (5) and the plate (10) an upward and downward opening towards the cooling container (2) Intermediate space (11), with two longitudinal slots (12, 13) forming the upper and lower connection from the intermediate space (11) to the cooling container (2) manufacture.

The transparent plate (10) preferably reaches a lower height than the transparent front wall (5), namely a height of at most ¹¹ L ", which corresponds to the filling height of the cooling container (2).

A freezer designed according to the present description solves the problem of the transparent ones from fogging up Front wall (5), since the frozen food can not hinder the warm air generated by the lamp (9), as this is in the Gap (11) between the plate (10) and the front wall

(5) On the other hand, none can develop on the plate (10) Fogging because it is attached inside the cooling container (2) and not with the ambient temperature of the freezer (1) comes into contact *

Claims (4)

1. Freezer for the storage of frozen food, consisting of a cooling container open at the top and at least one partially transparent front wall, characterized in that a transparent plate (10) is provided which inside the cooling container (2) parallel to the front wall (5) and is arranged at a distance from this in such a way that between the plate (10) and the front wall (5) a after Open space (11) is created at the top and bottom. 2. Freezer according to claim 1, characterized in that the distance between the plate (10) and the front wall (5) is at least one centimeter. 3. Freezer according to claim 1, characterized in that the plate (10) reaches a height which is less than that Height of the front wall (5), and which corresponds to the maximum filling height of the freezer. 4. Freezer according to one of claims 1 to 3, characterized characterized in that outside in the area of the transparent front wall (5) a heat is radiated onto the front wall (5) Lamp (9) is arranged. i i i
