Definitions
- the invention refers to a refrigerator with a thermal insulated casing, formed by an outside casing or covering, a thermal insulation layer and an inside casing or covering that delimits the useful space of the refrigerator.
- the connector fastened in the vessel of refrigerated goods is placed in the vessel of refrigerated goods within relatively narrow margins of tolerance and that the attachment of the lighting installation with the connector allows certain play or overtravel. While the play or overtravel frequently implies formation of an undesired interstice, which makes possible the penetration of condensation water between the lighting installation and the vessel of refrigerated goods, the positioning of the connector within small margins of tolerance not only implies a costly manufacturing cycle, but it may also involve assembly problems of the lighting installation in the event that the connector, due to manufacturing inaccuracies, is not placed within the narrow tolerance range.
- the purpose of the invention is to propose for the prior art refrigerator according to the preamble of claim 1, a better base for the assembly of the lighting device or installation, to the refrigerator.
- the inside covering has an opening, that is covered by a fastening or insertion piece arranged in the side of the thermal insulation, that is provided with electric connections and with means for the fastening of the lighting installation, the lighting installation being in contact with the electric connections.
- the lighting installation is fastened in the insertion piece by means of sliding movement in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the insertion piece.
- a fastening mode and a contact mode for the lighting installation are provided, by means of which it is possible, on the one hand and due to the slide fastening, to obtain a relatively narrow support, therefore essentially free of air interstice, of the casing of the lighting installation in the inside covering.
- this type of fastening support of the lighting installation due to this type of fastening support of the lighting installation, a simplified assembly is possible, substantially free from manufacturing tolerances that must be maintained exactly, wherefore the manufacturing cycle is accelerated and the security of the process is increased, given that the insertion piece and the lighting installation almost represent an assembly unit.
- the thermal insulation material introduced as liquid starting components in the intermediate space between the outside casing or covering and the inside covering, penetrates into the useful space of the refrigerator through the notch or opening that exists in the inside covering.
- the support of the casing of the lighting installation in the inside covering offers, during the attachment process and contact process with the insertion piece, a type of guide through which the assembly cycle can be carried out in a substantially more precise and quicker way.
- the insertion piece is retained in the free edges of the notch by means of a bayonet type locking, whose locking direction extends in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the insertion piece.
- the locking of the insertion piece is provided for in an especially convenient manner when, according to a following advantageous configuration of the object of the invention, it is provided for that the bayonet-type locking of the insertion piece is provided for in the edges of the opening that extend in the direction of the longitudinal axis.
- the insertion piece can be led to its locking position in an especially easy-to-assemble manner, as to the manufacturing technique and handling technique when, in accordance with another preferred embodiment of the object of the invention, it is provided for that the insertion piece can be led to its locking position in the direction towards the opening of the useful space.
- the insertion piece is retained in an especially simple way and in a stable position during the manufacturing cycle when, in accordance with another advantageous configuration of the object of the invention, it is provided for that the insertion piece is retained in positive connection in its locking position and against the locking direction with the help of retaining means.
- the fastening means of the lighting installation can cooperate in a bayonet manner with retaining means in said lighting installation.
- a retaining arrangement of this type for the lighting installation by virtue of the inclined plane that is used during the bayonet-type locking, the lighting installation can be fastened in a way essentially independent of the tolerance and essentially closely supported on the inside covering. Besides, a retaining arrangement of this type allows rapid and power-saving assembly and disassembly of the lighting installation.
- the fastening means of the lighting installation in the insertion piece are configured especially simply and robustly when, in accordance with a further advantageous configuration of the object of the invention, it is provided for that in the insertion piece the fastening means of the lighting installation are configured like at least one individual retaining clamp, with which a retaining projection in the lighting installation can cooperate, in positive connection and/or friction connection with regard to the longitudinal axis of the insertion piece.
- the insertion piece has a longitudinal extended cavity, arranged in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the insertion piece, directed towards the thermal insulation, in one of whose ends is provided a housing bag open on both sides in the direction of the longitudinal axis, which permits retention of a connector, provided with contact elements that act as electric connections, hermetically along the outside contour of said connector.
- the insertion piece has an elastic sealing lip, placed circumferentially, that is supported with sealing effect on the inside covering in the area of the edge of the opening.
- the electric contacts are retained in a specially simple manner and in a secure position in the lighting installation when, in accordance with another advantageous configuration of the object of the invention, it is provided for that the lighting installation has a housing, that can retain, in positive connection and/or friction connection, a retaining element equipped with spring contacts, insertable at least partially in the housing bag.
- the reflector of the lighting installation may be replaced in a specially simple manner when, in accordance with another preferred embodiment of the object of the invention, it is provided for that the lighting installation is provided with a releasably retained reflector.
- a fastening support of the reflector of this type enables use of reflectors of different materials and with a different shape, whereby, for example, the lighting installation may be reequipped inexpensively with incandescent lamps with different emission power.
