Definitions

  • the invention relates to a removable refrigerated cabinet.
  • Such a piece of furniture can be assembled with other identical pieces of furniture in order to form a shelving for the presentation of fresh food products or the like.
  • the invention therefore also relates to such display shelving.
  • the shelving units of the prior art are made up of independent pieces of furniture each independently equipped with means necessary for refrigeration, such as for example evaporators, exchangers, fans, thermostats, etc.
  • each piece of furniture represents a significant weight and bulk, in particular by its size as well as the need for its autonomy.
  • a refrigerated cabinet comprising an external base and an internal base between which is placed a thermally insulating tank, intended to contain refrigeration means.
  • this tank ensures continuity of the thermal insulation and prevents external condensation by interrupting the thermal conduction between the internal structure and the external base.
  • the invention therefore aims to overcome these drawbacks and proposes a light unitary piece of furniture, of small size and of easy assembly and disassembly, so that it can be easily assembled with other identical pieces of furniture to form a shelving.
  • the realization of such shelving does not require excessive means of transport and handling and in this case becomes inexpensive.
  • the invention provides a piece of furniture of the aforementioned type, characterized in that the base is rigidly associated with the uprights by means of at least one rigid association assembly, provided with integrated thermal insulation means, l 'association set can be removable.
  • this piece of furniture has no internal legs.
  • the piece of furniture is easily assembled and dismountable and is thermally insulated independently.
  • the base comprises at least two beams arranged in a telescopic manner, in order to adapt the depth of the cabinet to the needs of the user.
  • At least two pieces of furniture of the aforementioned type can be arranged side by side in order to produce a shelving for product presentation.
  • This rack then receives the refrigeration means, each of which may be longer than that of a single piece of furniture.
  • the number of refrigeration means is not necessarily equal to the number of pieces of furniture forming the shelving, which considerably lightens the whole.
  • Figure 1 is a schematic view in vertical section of a piece of furniture according to the invention.
  • Figure 2 is a schematic perspective view of the base / upright association assembly according to a first embodiment.
  • Figure 3 is a schematic perspective view of the base / upright association assembly according to a second embodiment.
  • FIG. 4 is a cross section of the association assembly shown in FIG. 2.
  • Figure 5 is an exploded schematic view of a piece of furniture according to the invention.
  • the invention proposes a removable refrigerated cabinet comprising at least one external base 1 mounted on adjustable feet 1a and at least one vertical upright 2 at the upper end of which a cross member 3 is fixed.
  • thermal insulation panels respectively 4, 5 and inwardly, perforated panels, respectively 6, 7, these panels 4, 5, 6, 7 extending from one end of the cabinet to the other.
  • the vertical upright 2 is intended to receive, in addition to the perforated panel 6, consoles 8 adjustable in height in a conventional manner and themselves supporting shelves 9.
  • the base 1 is rigidly associated with the upright 2 by means of a rigid association assembly 10, which will be detailed below.
  • a horizontal thermal insulation panel 11 rests on the base 1 and supports the refrigeration means, such as for example an exchanger 12 and a fan 13.
  • the base 1 is entirely, or substantially entirely, located outside of the thermal insulation means 4 and 11, the cabinet being devoid of internal legs.
  • Said refrigeration means 12, 13 are surmounted by a plate 14 intended to receive the fresh products.
  • a vertical upright 15 is fixed to the end of the base 1 opposite the vertical upright 2. This upright 15 allows in particular the installation of protective and / or decorative plinths of the front face of the piece of furniture.
  • the height of the upright 15 is preferably substantially equal to that of the location of the plate 14.
  • a vertical thermal insulation panel 16 is disposed towards the inside of said upright 15 and on the horizontal insulation panel 11.
  • the ventilation of refrigerated air is ensured by appropriate means. Indeed, the air is sucked in by the fan (s) 13 at an opening created between the end of the plate 14, opposite the upright 2, and the upright assembly 15-panel 16. Then the air is cooled as it passes over the exchanger 12 and is then blown by the conduits formed by panels 4 and 6 and panels 5 and 7.
  • a vertical thermal insulation panel 5a comes into contact with the end of the panel 5, opposite to the panel 4, and parallel to the panel 4 to channel the departure of an air curtain.
  • the perforations of the perforated panels 6 and 7 thus allow ventilation of the volume to be refrigerated.
  • the upright 2 is in the flow of cooled air - or at a temperature close to zero degrees - while the base 1 is at ambient temperature prevailing around the cabinet.
  • At least one of the first, second rigid association means is removable.
  • said first rigid association means allow the association of the housing 17 with the base 1
  • said second means allow the association of the housing 17 with the upright 2.
  • the rigid association assembly 10 forms a foot, the base 1 being rigidly associated with the housing 17 laterally and the upright 2 being pressed longitudinally by its lower end part into the housing 17.
  • the rigid association assembly 10 constitutes a rear leg of the piece of furniture.
  • the first rigid association means are of the permanent fixing type by welding or the like.
  • the first rigid association means are of the removable type by hooking (18, 18a).
  • said first means can also be of the removable type by bolting or the like.
  • the second rigid association means are of the longitudinal depression type with wedging or force.
  • the piece of furniture comprises at least two sets of rigid association 10 forming feet on the two lateral sides of the piece of furniture and, if necessary, one or more intermediate feet.
  • the base 1 may include two beams arranged telescopically, to use the same base for different depths of the furniture.
  • the means of association of such a telescopic base to the housing 17 can also be of the removable type, such as for example by picking, as shown in FIG. 3.
  • FIG. 4 illustrates in detail an embodiment of the rigid association assembly 10.
  • the housing 17 has inside a thermally insulating jacket 19 leaving a clearance between its walls and those of the housing 17.
  • the upper part of the jacket 19 exceeds that of the housing 17 and has a shoulder from the peripheral edge of the housing, and this , in order to ensure the continuity of the insulation with the panels 4 and 11, which are in contact with said jacket 19.
  • the upright 2 is then pressed longitudinally into the jacket 19 and is held laterally by the panels 4 and 6.
  • the insertion can be achieved by force. It can then be obtained from construction, in particular by molding, injection or forced fitting.
  • the insertion can be carried out with wedging, as shown in FIG. 4. It is then necessary to insert shims in the clearance existing between the upright 2 and the jacket 19, in order to avoid pivoting towards the front of the upright 2 which supports the load of the shelves and the products displayed.
  • a first wedge 20, of hard material is housed against one of the internal walls of the jacket 19. Clamping screws, using nuts 22 welded to the housing 17, come to make pressure on said shim 20 which allows the distribution of said pressure.
  • the shim 20 then in turn presses on a second shim 21 made of thermally insulating material.
  • This wedge 21 thus allows the assembly 17, jacket 19, and upright 2 to be secured without play.
  • Both the jacket 19 and the shims 20, 21 can be inserted into the housing 17 by wedging or by molding, injection or forced fitting.
  • This arrangement thus enables efficient breaking of the thermal bridge, since no part of the upright 2, at low temperature, is in direct contact with the base 1, at ambient temperature.
  • the rigid association assembly 10 of the base 1 and the upright 2 allows these elements to be held securely and is easily assembled and dismountable.
  • the constituent elements of said assembly 10 may have shapes different from those shown in the present example.
  • the shirt 19 could, for example, have on one of its walls, a slope reducing the size of its bottom.
  • the wedge (s), to be inserted in the clearance existing between the upright 2 and the shirt 19, must be profiled so as to conform to the shape of the shirt 19.
  • the jacket 19 is absent from the assembly 10 and the upright 2 is directly pressed into the housing 17.
  • the upright 2 and the base 1 are made of a thermally insulating material having good mechanical strength, such as a composite material for example.
  • the insulation panel 11 traditionally receives the refrigeration means 12, 13.
  • said refrigeration means such as an exchanger 12
  • said refrigeration means can have a length greater than that of the furniture according to the invention when they are placed side by side to form a shelving for product presentation.
  • such shelving comprises at least one means of refrigeration.
  • either the exchanger 12 is equipped with its own defrost water collection tank, or the panels 11 of each piece of furniture are tightly assembled and the water will be discharged by a gutter.
  • the insulation panel 11 rests on the base 1, which receives in the front part, opposite the upright 2, a gutter 23.
  • This gutter 23 is thermally insulated in order to ensure the continuity of the insulation between the panels 11 and 16.
  • the water coming from the refrigeration process is thus collected by said gutter 23, the insulation means carried by the base 1 - in this case, the panel 11 - being placed inclined towards the gutter 23.
