Definitions

  • the invention relates to a refrigerator and / or freezer with a lower front Edge of the cabinet part having at least one inner container Sheet guide with an angled profile, to which the lower front ends of the side parts of the cabinet part are connected and that at its end areas bearing blocks for the lower door hinges in which the device is located on its front supporting feet are screwed in.
  • the object of the invention is therefore a refrigerator and / or freezer at the beginning specified type to create, which is for the purpose of wearing from its front can be seized here safely.
  • this object is achieved in a refrigerator and / or freezer solved type in that the bearing blocks made of U-shaped There are profiles with outward-pointing legs that the sheet metal strip to Protrude the footprint and the lower rear grip legs for the purpose of carrying the device handle width exhibit.
  • the person wearing the device on the front can do one with each hand Grip the bearing block, thereby ensuring a secure and firm grip is that the pedestals the sheet metal strip forming the front edge of the cabinet part protrude and can be reached behind with your fingers. Should the feet not be unscrewed so far that the pedestals are caught behind can be gripped by tilting the device backwards.
  • the pedestals consist of sheet metal stampings bent into a U-shape or sheet metal blanks, which are cut free from the web part and against each other facing Z-shaped tongues are provided, the Width corresponds to the web width between the legs.
  • the Z-shaped angled Tongues additionally brace the pedestals.
  • the lower leg can be cut free and approximately rectangular provided inwards to this curved strip-shaped extension be, which leads to a further stiffening of the lower leg.
  • the upper leg can be cut free and into the plane of the web part curved tongue be provided, which are angled between the Z-shaped Tongues located.
  • the pedestals can, for example, by spot welding over these angled tongues and the web parts with the Metal strip to be connected.
  • the towering Leg of the sheet metal strip is homogeneously provided with lateral extensions and the pedestals laterally the leg about the length of these extensions overtop.
  • the lateral extensions can be provided with threaded holes.
  • “Material-homogeneous” means that the extensions are made in one piece are made of the same sheet as the bar.
  • the extensions are expediently provided with a bend, so that the Width of the column corresponds to the thickness of the side plates.
  • the upstanding leg of the sheet metal strip is expediently in its upper one Provide an edge strip folded back on itself towards the end, which is bent into an upwardly open U-shaped channel.
  • This gutter can usually include a front angled edge serve plastic inner container.
  • the front to the Web part parallel leg of the Z-shaped tongues with holding pieces are connected, the bores of the upper legs passing through the journal wear.
  • These holding pieces can be fixed, for example, using fastening screws attach to the front leg, this is also on the Supported on the inside of at least the upper leg of the bearing block and on simple way a pivot pin is created for the refrigerator door.
  • the holding pieces have a U-shaped profile, which Web part of the attachment to the front leg of the Z-shaped tongue serves.
  • Refrigerator doors can be provided with angled resilient legs, which run resiliently against the pin in the closing area and engage behind it, so that the door is held in its closed position and an undesirable opening is avoided.
  • the holding pieces with further holes in the upper legs of the pedestals Provide pins that form abutments for resilient holding legs of the door.
  • the bearing blocks are designed such that, if desired, one Left or right installation of the door is possible.
  • the bearing journals for left and right mounting Brackets can be mounted on both sides.
  • the holding pieces can with a bore or a receptacle for the bearing pin, in which can be inserted from both sides and, for example, by locking Screws can be fixed.
  • the holding pieces can be cantilevered on both sides Pins for the resilient holding legs be provided. These can be permanent be provided on the holding pieces, since these are only a shorter length need to have, so that the non-functional, downward-pointing pin there is enough space between the legs of the bearing block.
  • a bowl-shaped cover can be placed on the pedestals with the handle panels is provided.
  • This cover expediently not only covers bearing blocks, but it is also provided with a middle part that separates the bar covers the side bearing blocks.
  • the handle covers cover the Bearing blocks, so that sharp edges that cut into the hands when worn can be avoided.
  • That forming the front edge of the cabinet part of a refrigerator and / or freezer Sheet metal strip 1 consists of a towering and parallel to the front of the cabinet Leg 2 and a right angled inward from this Leg 3. From the upstanding leg 2 is an upper edge strip folded inwards on itself and U-shaped to form an upwardly open channel 4 bent, which is best seen in Fig. 4.
  • the towering leg 2 is provided with cranked extensions 5 on its left and right sides. With the side areas of the upstanding legs 2 are bearing blocks 6 through Spot welds connected.
  • the bearing blocks 6 consist of rectangular stamped sheet metal blanks 7 with rounded corners, from which in the manner shown in Fig. 5 against each other Pointing tongues 8 are cut free, which remain with the side Web parts 9 of the U-shaped bracket are connected.
  • a tongue 11 projects from the upper leg 10 between the tongues 8, such as this can be seen from the blank 7 according to FIG. 5.
  • the lower leg 12 is with a flat cut-free strip-shaped Provide extension 13.
  • the bearing block 6 is bent from the blank 7 according to FIG. 5 in that the legs 10, 12, the tongues 8 and 11 and the extension 13 with the Slashed bending lines are bent in the manner shown in FIG. 6 become.
  • the bearing block 6 is in the way of spot welding through welding spots 14 in 1 with the front leg 2 of the metal strip 1 connected.
  • the bearing blocks 6 protrude from the upstanding leg 2 about the same length as the extensions 5. Between the extensions 5 and projecting parts of the bearing blocks 6 are receiving gaps for the angled Side edges 16 of the side plates 17 of the cabinet housing are formed. This angled side edges are with the metal strip 1 by not shown Connected screws that are passed through aligned holes 18.
  • the front legs 19 of the Z-shaped parallel to the web parts 9 of the bearing block 6 angled tongues 8 form fastening pieces for holding pieces 20 for the bearing pins 21.
  • the holding pieces 20 are profiled in a U-shape and with their Web parts by screws, not shown, which in the threaded holes 22nd are screwed, attached to the legs 19.
  • the holding pieces 20 are with Retaining bushes 24 are provided for the bearing pins 21, in which these in the manner are fixable that the holding parts depending on their assembly on both sides can protrude, so that simply turning left and right is possible, depending on which side the door is hinged on should.
  • the bearing pin 21 passes through the upper leg 10 of the bearing block Holes 25.
  • the holding piece 20 is at a distance from the bearing journal on both sides with the bearing journal parallel pin 26 provided, each of the towering Pin penetrates the upper leg 10 of the bearing block in openings 27.
  • the pins 26 form the locking pins for resilient legs connected to the door, which keep the door closed and an undesirable opening prevent.
  • the bowl-shaped base panel shown in FIGS. 8 and 9 is attached to cover the metal strip 1 with the side bearing blocks 6 is on this the bowl-shaped base panel shown in FIGS. 8 and 9 is attached.
  • This consists of a channel-shaped injection molded part made of plastic, for example made of polystyrene, with the upper leg 34 on the underside of its lateral End regions with sawtooth-shaped projections 35 is provided behind the edges 36 of the upper legs 10 of the bearing blocks in the area of the cut-free Snap the web parts into place.
  • the base panel 33 is with lateral molded parts 37 provided that the shape of the bearing blocks 6 in the manner are adapted to disguise them.
  • the side parts 37 are with Recesses forming recesses 38.
