Definitions

  • the invention relates to a refrigerator with at least one shelf arranged in its interior for storing refrigerated goods, which is guided so that it can be pulled out at least on its two opposite edge sections in guides arranged on the side walls of the interior, the pull-out path being provided by unlockable stop elements which interact with counter-stops. is limited.
  • DE-AS 10 64 083 proposes a pull-out limitation for a grid-like shelf, which is formed by a resilient tongue with its free end directed towards the rear wall of the cooling space, which tongue is formed from the guideway of cross section C -shaped, arranged on the side walls of the cooling space protrudes and interacts with a counter-stop provided on the shelf for the purpose of pull-out limitation.
  • the invention has for its object to propose a structurally simple pull-out limit for a storage guided in guides, which on the one hand the pull-out path the storage is safely limited and which, on the other hand, can be disengaged with little effort.
  • unlockable stops are arranged on the edge sections of the shelf, on the side opposite the running surface of the edge sections and can be actuated in the region outside the guides for their unlocking.
  • the solution according to the invention is characterized in that the interacting sliding surfaces on the guides and the shelves are neither impaired in terms of sliding nor guidance technology by the pull-out limitation.
  • the solution according to the invention ensures quick and precise operation of the unlockable stop elements due to its good visibility and accessibility.
  • the unlockable stop elements are designed as leaf springs which are wedge-like in relation to the edge sections in the direction of insertion of the tray into the guides and are provided with an actuating button for unlocking the counteracting stops.
  • edge sections in the region of the shelf near the door have plug-on elements which are detachably held in receptacles and provided with the unlockable stops.
  • Stop elements designed in this way are distinguished on the one hand by their optically inconspicuous integration into the storage area and on the other hand by their particularly easy interchangeability in the event of damage.
  • the push-on elements are designed as resilient, cross-sectionally C-shaped clamps which are positively and non-positively held in the receptacles both in the displacement direction and counter to their push-on direction.
  • the push-on elements provided with the unlockable stop elements can be mounted in a positionally simple manner on the shelf without any expenditure of force and are held in a stable position during handling of the shelf.
  • the guides on the side walls on their side facing the leaf spring are provided with a bulge into which the free end of the leaf spring is immersed when the tray is arranged in its end position inserted into the interior is.
  • a shelf is particularly expedient if, according to a further advantageous embodiment of the object of the invention, it is provided that the shelf has a shelf made of glass, which is bordered with a circumferentially arranged frame, which projects laterally in the area away from the door, for guiding in the guides has serving pins and which in the area near the door has laterally projecting frame sections which are provided with the receptacles for holding the plug-on elements.
  • the push-on elements and the pins are formed from material which is slidable with respect to the guides.
  • the tray can be moved easily and almost jerkily within the guides even when it is loaded with refrigerated goods.
  • a household refrigerator 10 is shown, the heat-insulating housing 11 of which, together with a door 12 attached to it and likewise provided with heat insulation material, encloses an interior space 13.
  • This is provided on its opposite side walls 14 with equally spaced guides 15 formed as guide grooves, which are produced by plastic shaping of the interior 13 shielding the interior 13 for heat insulation of the housing 11 in the deep-drawing process.
  • guides 15 systems 20 for storing refrigerated goods are slidably guided and held with their lateral edge sections facing the side walls 14.
  • the lateral edge sections are part of a frame 22 made of plastic injection molding and enclosing a closed storage area 21 made of glass, which has a handle 23 on its front side facing the door 12 for the purpose of displaceable movement of the shelf 20 inside the guides 15 is provided.
  • the lateral edge sections which are formed as frame sections and which are connected to the front of the frame 22 and are held in the guide strips 15, are offset by a step 24, as a result of which the width of the shelf 20 in the area remote from the door springs back.
  • pins 25 which have approximately the height of the step 24 and which serve to guide the section of the shelf 20 remote from the door in the guides 15 and which are constructed in two parts , wherein the base body formed on the frame 22 is provided with a plug-on part which is formed from a material which is easily slidable within the guides.
  • the lateral frame sections of the frame 22 are provided with receptacles 26 molded into it (see FIGS. 3 and 4), which are set back in relation to the contour of the frame cross section and which are also in the direction of insertion of the lateral frame sections extending retaining grooves 27 are equipped.
  • Push-fit elements 30 can be introduced into the receptacles 26, which are designed as brackets of different lengths in the form of a C-shaped cross-section, the longer leg lying deeper in the installed position of the shelf 20 with its outer surface as a skid within the guides 15 serves and is provided at its free end with a locking lug 32 which is able to engage in the holding groove 27 facing it in a locking manner.
  • the shorter leg 32 opposite the longer leg 31 forms, with its outer surface facing away from the receptacle 26, together with the outer surface of the lateral portion of the frame 22, a continuously flat surface and is provided at its free end with a retaining lug 34, which at inside the receptacle 26 arranged plug-in element 30 cooperates with the holding groove 27 facing it.
  • the retaining lug 34 arranged at the free end of the shorter leg 33 is inserted into the associated retaining groove 27 in a first assembly step, the leg 33 in this case having its outer surface opposite the outer surface of the frame 22 is tilted so that the detent 32 arranged at the free end of the longer leg 31 is not yet in engagement with the holding groove 27 assigned to it. Subsequently, the push-on element 30 is pivoted into its end position, the holding lug 34 arranged within the holding groove 27 serving as the fulcrum.
  • the pivoting of the plug-on element 30 expands it elastically, before the catch 32 arranged on the longer leg 31 moves into its catch position, so that after reaching the catch position, due to the spring action generated by the clip-like design of the plug-on element 30, it counteracts this its plug-on direction is held in the receptacle 26 in a non-positively releasable manner. Perpendicular to the plug-on direction, in the direction of displacement of the shelf 20 within the guides 15, the plug-on element 30 is secured by its positive insertion into the receptacle 26.
  • one of the two plug-on elements 30 is on the side portions of the frame 22 (in the present exemplary embodiment, the plug-on element 30 facing away from the door stop side) on its shorter leg 33, on the end of which facing the step 24 with an unlockable stop element 35 equipped, which is designed as a tongue-shaped leaf spring, the spring body 36 is wedge-like against the outer surface of the shorter leg 33, the wedge-shaped edge formed by the wedge-like arrangement of the spring body 36 together with the leg 33 in the direction of insertion of the tray 20 into the guides 15 Stage 24 is executed (see Fig. 5). As can be seen both from FIG. 2 and from FIG. 3 and FIG.
  • the spring body 36 has two sections of different widths, the narrower first section facing the leg 33 serving to connect it to this being designed as a spring foot 37 .
  • the second section adjoining the spring foot 37 and widening on one side to produce an actuating button 38 toward the storage surface 21 is provided at its free end with a stop surface 39.
  • the stop surface 39 when the shelf 20 is pulled out of the interior 13, cooperates with a counter-stop 40, which in the opposite horizontal surface facing the shelf 20 serving as a sliding surface for the shelf 20 Section of the guide bar 15 is molded.
  • the interaction between the extension path of the shelf 20 from the interior 13 of the household refrigerator 10 is limited to a predetermined extension dimension, thereby preventing the shelf 20 from sliding out of the guides.
  • this is in the event of an attack with the stop 40 interacting stop 39 by actuating the actuation button 37 accessible from the outside of the storage surface 21 outside the guides 15 against the spring action of the spring body 36 in the direction of the storage surface 21.
  • the shelf 20 can be pulled out of the guides 15 up to the steps 24 provided on the lateral sections of the frame 22, whereby a pivoting movement of the shelf 20 around the pins 25 still arranged in the guides 15 is possible, which is then essentially vertical to their direction of displacement in the guides 15 pivoted tray 20 can be removed from the guides 15.
  • a pivoting movement of the shelf 20 is necessary because the door 12 is equipped on its inner side facing the interior 13 with protruding bars which, at an opening angle of 90 ° for the door 12, make it impossible for the shelf 20 to be pulled out of the guides 15.
  • the free end of the spring body 36 provided with the stop surface 39 is immersed in a bulge 41 within which the spring body 36 is arranged without force and without pretension is what is particularly important in the case when the spring body 36 of the unlockable stop element 35 is made in one piece from plastic injection molding together with the plug-on element 30.
