Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Einbau-Kältegerät mit einem von einer Tür verschließbaren wärmeisolierenden Gehäuse, welches in eine durch seitliche Nischenwände, einem Nischenboden und einer Nischendecke umgrenzte Möbelnische einsetzbar und darin fixierbar ist, wobei die Fixierung des wärmeisolierenden Gehäuses auf der Griffseite der Tür durch winkelprofilartige Halteelemente bewirkt ist.The invention relates to a built-in refrigerator with a lockable by a door heat-insulating housing, which in a through niche walls, a niche floor and a niche ceiling bounded furniture niche can be used and fixed in it is, with the fixation of the heat-insulating housing on the handle side of the door is caused by angle profile-like holding elements.

Es ist bekannt, zur Befestigung von Einbau-Kältegeräten in Möbelnischen winkelprofilartig ausgebildete Halteelemente anzuwenden, welche mit einem ihrer Winkelschenkel am Türöffnungsrand des Einbau-Kältegerätes und mit ihrem anderen Schenkel am Möbelumbau der Einbaunische festgesetzt und nach ihrer Befestigung durch ein Abdeckelement abgedeckt sind. Bevor jedoch die endgültige Befestigung des Einbaugerätes innerhalb der Möbelnische erfolgen kann, ist es bei diesem Stand der Technik erforderlich, das Einbau-Kältegerät hinsichtlich seiner Einsetztiefe in die Möbelnische mit zusätzlichen Meßmitteln einzumessen. Derartige Einmeßarbeiten sind nicht nur umständlich, sondern gegebenenfalls zeitaufwendig und somit kostenträchtig.It is known for fastening built-in refrigeration appliances in furniture niches in the manner of an angle profile trained holding elements to apply, which with one of their angle legs on the edge of the door opening the built-in refrigerator and with its other leg on the furniture remodeling the installation niche is fixed and covered by a cover element after it is fastened are. But before the final attachment of the built-in device within the furniture niche can take place, it is necessary with this prior art, the built-in refrigerator with regard to its depth of use in the furniture niche with additional measuring equipment to measure. Such calibration work is not only cumbersome, but if necessary time-consuming and therefore costly.

Um diese Einmeßarbeiten zu vermeiden, wurde auch schon vorgeschlagen, den als Halteelement dienenden Befestigungswinkel mit einem Tiefenanschlagteil zu versehen, welcher nach der erfolgten Befestigung des Einbau-Kältegerätes aus optischen Gründen vom Befestigungswinkel abgetrennt werden muß, so daß ein einmal zur Anwendung gekommenes Halteelement keinen Tiefenanschlag mehr aufweist und somit durch ein ungebrauchtes Halteelement ersetzt werden muß, wenn bei einem neuerlichen Einbau des Einbau-Kältegerätes ein Einmeßvorgang für dieses vermieden werden soll. In order to avoid this measuring work, it has already been proposed to use it as a holding element serving mounting bracket with a depth stop part, which after the installation of the built-in refrigerator has been done for optical reasons from Mounting bracket must be separated, so that once used Holding element no longer has a depth stop and thus by an unused Retaining element must be replaced if the Built-in refrigerator a calibration process for this should be avoided.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, für ein Einbaugerät gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1 ein Halteelement vorzuschlagen, welches mit einfachen konstruktiven Maßnahmen derart verbessert ist, daß die Nachteile des Standes der Technik vermieden sind.The invention has for its object for a built-in device according to the preamble of claim 1 to propose a holding element, which with simple constructive Measures are improved in such a way that the disadvantages of the prior art are avoided are.

Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, daß jedes der türgriffseitigen Halteelemente mit einem zumindest dieses teilweise abdeckenden Abdeckteiles gelenkig verbunden ist, welches im aus seiner Abdeckstellung heraus verschwenkten Zustand durch Anschlagen einer daran vorgesehenen Anschlagfläche an der Frontseite der die Möbelnische umgrenzenden Wandungen die Einsetztiefe des Einbau-Kältegerätes in die Möbelnische festlegt.This object is achieved according to the invention in that each of the door handle side Holding elements articulated with a cover part that at least partially covers this is connected, which is pivoted out of its cover position by hitting a stop surface provided on the front of the Furniture walls surrounding the installation depth of the built-in refrigerator in the Furniture niche sets.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Lösung ist ein zur Festsetzung eines Einbau-Kältegerätes in einer Möbelnische dienendes Montageelement bereitgestellt, welches neben einem zur Nischenbefestigung dienenden Halteelement auch ein als Tiefenanschlag und Schraubenverblendung dienendes Abdeckteil aufweist. Durch die einstückige Ausführung ist sichergestellt, daß für die Befestigung des Einbau-Kältegerätes unerläßliche Montageteile nicht verlorengehen. Darüberhinaus ist durch die gelenkige Anbindung des als Tiefenanschlag dienenden Abdeckteiles am Halteelement gewährleistet, daß das Halteelement samt seinem Tiefenanschlag auch bei einem aus Reparaturgründen erfolgenden Neueinbau des Gerätes verwendbar ist, so daß eine Neuanschaffung derartiger Halteelemente oder zeitraubende Einmeßarbeiten zur Festlegung der Einsetztiefe des Einbau-Kältegerätes in die Möbelnische und die damit unter Umständen auftretenden Meßfehler stets vermieden sind. Überdies ist durch die erfindungsgemäße Lösung eine besonders einfach zu handhabender Tiefenanschlag erzeugt, welcher durch seine gelenkige Anbindung auch zum wiederholten Male eine positionsgenaue Tiefeneinstellung ermöglicht und am Halteelement verbleiben kann.The solution according to the invention means that a built-in refrigerator can be fixed in a furniture niche serving mounting element is provided, which in addition to a Niche fastening holding element also as a depth stop and screw facing serving cover part. The one-piece design ensures that for the attachment of the built-in refrigerator essential assembly parts do not get lost. In addition, the articulated connection of the as a depth stop serving cover part on the holding element ensures that the holding element together with its depth stop even for a new installation for repair reasons the device is usable, so that a new purchase of such holding elements or time-consuming measuring work to determine the insertion depth of the built-in refrigerator into the furniture niche and the measurement errors that may occur under certain circumstances are avoided. Moreover, the solution according to the invention makes it particularly simple easy to handle depth stop, which is due to its articulated connection enables a precise depth adjustment again and again Retaining element can remain.

Nach einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform des Gegenstandes der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß das Halteelement und das Abdeckteil in Art eines Winkelprofils ausgebildet sind, deren in Einsetzrichtung des Einbau-Kältegerätes in die Möbelnische verlaufende Schenkel an ihren freien Enden gelenkig miteinander verbunden sind, wobei der andere Schenkel des Abdeckteils in von seiner Abdeckstellung zurückverschwenkten Zustand mit seinem gelenknahen Ende als Anschlagfläche dient. According to a preferred embodiment of the subject matter of the invention, that the holding element and the cover part are designed in the manner of an angle profile, their legs extending in the direction of insertion of the built-in refrigerator in the furniture recess are hinged together at their free ends, the other leg of the cover part in the state pivoted back from its cover position with its the end near the joint serves as a stop surface.

Durch eine derartige Lösung ist eine besonders einfache, aber dennoch sehr positionsgenaue Verschwenkbewegung des Abdeckteils zu Zwecken der Tiefeneinstellung möglich, wobei dem Abdeckteil durch seine winkelprofilartige Gestalt eine hohe Formsteifigkeit verliehen ist, wodurch sich in Verbindung mit der gelenknahen Anordnung der Anschlagfläche eine besonders maßgenaue und einfach zu handhabende Tiefenfestlegung für das Einbau-Kältegerät in der Möbelnische ergibt.Such a solution makes it particularly simple, but nevertheless very precise in position Pivoting movement of the cover part possible for the purpose of depth adjustment, the cover part being given a high degree of rigidity due to its angular profile-like shape is, which is in connection with the joint-near arrangement of the stop surface a particularly accurate and easy-to-use depth setting for the Built-in refrigerator in the furniture niche results.

Ferner ist durch die gelenkige Anbindung des Abdeckteiles und des Halteelementes über deren Schenkel eine besonders steife und somit mit geringen Toleranzen für die Tiefeneinstellung beaufschlagte Verbindung zwischen den beiden Teilen erzielt.Furthermore, due to the articulated connection of the cover part and the holding element the legs of which are particularly stiff and therefore with low tolerances for depth adjustment acted upon connection between the two parts achieved.

Gemäß einer nächsten bevorzugten Ausführungsform des Gegenstandes der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß das Winkelprofil zur Bildung des Halteelements und das Winkelprofil zur Bildung des Abdeckteiles ungleichlange Schenkel aufweist, von denen die beiden kürzeren in Einsetzrichtung des Einbau-Kältegerätes in die Möbelnische verlaufende Schenkel an ihrem freien Ende gelenkig miteinander verbunden sind, wobei der kürzere Schenkel des Abdeckteiles in seinem aus der Abdeckstellung herausverschwenkten Zustand mit seinem freien Ende als Anschlagfläche dient, während der längere Schenkel mit annähernd parallelem Abstand zu einer benachbarten Möbelfrontplatte angeordnet ist.According to a next preferred embodiment of the subject of the invention it is provided that the angle profile to form the holding element and the angle profile to form the cover part has unequal legs, of which the two shorter Legs running in the direction of insertion of the built-in refrigerator in the furniture recess are hinged together at their free end, the shorter leg of the cover part in its pivoted out position from the cover its free end serves as a stop surface, while the longer leg with approximately parallel distance to an adjacent furniture front panel is arranged.

Hierdurch ergibt sich durch den parallel zur benachbarten Mittelfrontplatte verlaufenden längeren Schenkel des Abdeckteiles durch dessen Lichtspaltbildung zur Möbelfrontplatte eine besonders genaue Kontrollmöglichkeit für die richtige Tiefeneinstellung des Einbau-Kältegerätes, wodurch eine hohe Einstellgenauigkeit bei der Tiefeneinstellung des Einbau-Kältegerätes gewährleistet ist.This results in the one running parallel to the adjacent central front panel longer leg of the cover part by its light gap formation to the furniture front panel a particularly precise control option for the correct depth setting of the built-in refrigerator, which ensures a high setting accuracy when setting the depth of the built-in refrigerator is guaranteed.

Nach einer nächsten bevorzugten Ausführungsform des Gegenstandes der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß der gelenkig am Halteelement gelagerte Schenkel des Abdeckteiles schmäler als die zur seitlichen Begrenzung der Möbelnische dienenden Nischenwände ausgebildet ist. According to a next preferred embodiment of the subject of the invention provided that the leg of the cover part articulated on the holding element narrower than the niche walls used to delimit the furniture niche is trained.

Hierdurch werden auf besonders einfache Art und Weise zu Einstellungsungenauigkeiten bei der Tiefeneinstellung führende Kollisionen mit der benachbarten Möbelfrontplatte vermieden.In this way, setting inaccuracies become in a particularly simple manner collisions with the neighboring furniture front panel during depth adjustment avoided.

Besonders kostengünstig herstellbar und zugleich besonders dauerhaft ist die gelenkige Verbindung zwischen dem Halteelement und dem Abdeckteil, wenn nach einer nächsten vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung des Gegenstandes der Erfindung vorgesehen ist, daß die gelenkige Verbindung zwischen dem Halteelement und dem Abdeckteil als Filmscharnier ausgebildet ist.The articulated one is particularly inexpensive to manufacture and at the same time particularly durable Connection between the holding element and the cover part, if after a next advantageous embodiment of the object of the invention is provided that the articulated Connection between the holding element and the cover part as a film hinge is trained.

Mit besonders geringem Arbeitsaufwand befestigbar und zum Zwecke der Demontage wieder lösbar ist das Abdeckteil, wenn nach einer nächsten bevorzugten Ausführungsform des Gegenstandes der Erfindung vorgesehen ist, daß das Abdeckteil in seinem das Halteelement abdeckenden Zustand lösbar an diesem gehaltert ist.Can be attached with particularly little work and for the purpose of disassembly the cover part is detachable if, according to a next preferred embodiment the subject of the invention is provided that the cover in its Holding element covering state is releasably supported on this.

Gemäß einer letzten bevorzugten Ausführungsform des Gegenstandes der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß das Halteelement an seinem in Einsetzrichtung des Einbau-Kältegerätes in die Möbelnische verlaufenden Winkelprofilschenkel an dessen seinem freien Ende gegenüberliegenden Ende ein Distanzelement aufweist.According to a last preferred embodiment of the subject of the invention provided that the holding element at its in the direction of insertion of the built-in refrigerator in the furniture niche extending angle profile leg at its free end opposite End has a spacer.

Durch die Anbringung des Distanzelementes ist bei der Montage des Halteelementes bereits sichergestellt, das türgriffseitig ein definierter Mindestabstand zwischen dem Gehäuse des Einbau-Kältegerätes und der dazu benachbarten Nischenwand ausgebildet ist, welcher insbesondere bei mit sogenannten Schleppscharnieren angelenkter Möbelfrontplatte von Bedeutung ist.By attaching the spacer is already in the assembly of the holding element ensures that the door handle side has a defined minimum distance between the housing the built-in refrigerator and the niche wall adjacent to it, which is particularly the case with furniture front panels hinged with so-called drag hinges is important.
