  • the invention relates to a heat-insulating housing for a thermally insulating Utility room arranged in a device such as a household refrigerator or freezer, a household oven or the like, with a housing outer wall, one of them spaced housing inner wall, which together form a gap enclose, which is evacuated at least via a connection point and which with an evacuable thermal insulation material for supporting the gap enclosing walls is filled, wherein within the space at least one partially provided within the heat insulating material extending channel system is, which traverses the gap at least largely as far as possible and which is fluidically connected to an evacuation nozzle.
  • thermo-insulating based on vacuum insulation technology Enclosures to be evacuated for the purpose of isolation, from the Housing outer walls hermetically enclosed spaces with To fill heat insulation material. This serves in addition to an additional heat insulation especially on top of that, the shell to be evacuated shell-like enclosing Housing walls against the due to the pressure drop within the cavity itself support resulting pressure difference to the outside atmosphere. That for support introduced thermal insulation material, however, entails that for the production a vacuum sufficient for thermal insulation evacuation required are significantly increased.
  • heat-insulating housings To reduce the evacuation times when using vacuum insulation technology heat-insulating housings is from DE 3940649A1 a heat insulating trained housing known between the Gezzauseinnen- and Housing outer walls designed as a molded heat insulating material is introduced. This is to reduce the suction resistance and thus to Reduction of pumping time during the evacuation process with grooved Wells equipped, the fluidic to an evacuation nozzle are connected.
