Abstract

A refrigerating unit includes a cooling chamber, a storage compartment removably guided within the chamber as far as a closing position, and a disengagement device. The chamber has a parallel-guide disposed on its sides. The guide has a mating toothed configuration, two rollers rigidly coupled, lying opposite each other, and each having an external toothed configuration with a pitch circle diameter to be rollingly coupled to the mating toothed configuration. The guide has an end section reached by the rollers near the closing position. One of the mating toothed configuration and the rollers is positionally fixed. The disengagement device disengages the mating toothed configuration from the external toothed configuration of the rollers and is at the end section and has a disengagement length compensating for oblique positioning of the compartment in and counter to a movement direction arising from an offset of the rollers along the mating toothed configuration.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Kältegerät mit wenigstens einem Kühlraum, welcher mit einem schubladenartig geführten Ablagefach ausgestattet ist, welches zumindest an seinen beiden in Einschubrichtung liegenden Längsseiten eine Parallelführungseinrichtung aufweist, welche durch eine zahnstangenartige Gegenverzahnung und aus zwei wenigstens annähernd starr miteinander gekoppelten, einander zumindest weitestgehend achsengleich gegen-überliegenden Laufrollen mit einer Außenverzahnung gleichen Teilkreisdurchmessers gebildet ist, welche sich an der Gegenverzahnung abzuwälzen vermag, wobei entweder die Gegenverzahnung oder die Laufrollen ortsfest angeordnet sind.The invention relates to a refrigerator with at least one refrigerator, which with a drawer-like storage compartment is equipped, which at least its two long sides lying in the direction of insertion one Has parallel guide device, which by a rack-like Counter-toothing and two, at least approximately rigidly coupled, with each other at least as far as possible axially opposite rollers an external toothing of the same pitch circle diameter is formed, which is the counter-toothing is able to roll, whereby either the counter-toothing or the rollers are fixed in place.

Aus der EP 07 18 574 A1 ist ein Kältegerät mit einem Kühlfach bekannt, welches mit schubladenartig ausziehbaren Ablagefächern ausgestattet ist, wobei das größere der Ablagefächer eine Tür zum Verschließen des Kühlfaches trägt. Das mit der Tür versehene Ablagefach ist mit einer Parallelführungseinrichtung ausgestattet, welche durch jeweils eine an den Seitenwänden des Kühlfaches vorgesehene zahnstangenartige Gegenverzahnung und an den Seitenwänden des Ablagefaches vorgesehenen außenverzahnten, mit der Gegenverzahnung zusammenzuwirken vermögende Laufrollen gebildet ist. Um zu vermeiden, daß sich bei dieser Art von Parallelführung eine Schrägstellung des Ablagefaches aufgrund eines nicht sachgemäß vorgenommenen Einsetzvorgang der Laufrollen am Ablagefach in die Gegenverzahnung ergibt, ist eine der Gegenverzahnung in Einschubrichtung des Ablagefaches vorgeschaltete Zwangsführung vorgeschlagen worden. Diese dient dazu, die außenverzahnten Laufrollen am Ablagefach in einer zumindest im wesentlichen senkrecht zur Gegenverzahnung verlaufenden Bewegung mit der Gegenverzahnung in Eingriff zu bringen und somit eine Schrägstellung beim Einsetzvorgang des Ablagefaches in die im Kühlfach vorgesehenen Führungen zu vermeiden. Trotz dieser Maßnahme hat sich gezeigt, daß es bei unsachgemäßer Bedienung des Ablagefaches nicht ausgeschlossen ist, daß dieses in eine Schrägstellung gelangt, in welcher die an sich starr miteinander verbundenen außenverzahnten Laufrollen sich asynchron beim Bewegen des Ablagefaches zueinander bewegen und in welcher bei in Schließstellung befindlichen Ablagefach sich zwischen dessen Dichtung und dem dafür am Gehäuse vorgesehenen Auflagerand ein Spalt ergibt, aufgrund welchem eine Erwärmung des Ablagefaches die Folge ist.From EP 07 18 574 A1 a refrigeration device with a cooling compartment is known, which with Drawer-like pull-out storage compartments is equipped, the larger of which Storage compartments carries a door to lock the refrigerator compartment. The one with the door Storage compartment is equipped with a parallel guide device, which by one provided on the side walls of the refrigerator compartment rack-like counter-toothing and on the side walls of the storage compartment provided external teeth to interact with the counter teeth wealthy casters is formed. To avoid this type of Parallel guidance an inclination of the storage compartment due to a not Properly performed insertion of the rollers on the storage compartment in the Counter teeth results in one of the counter teeth in the insertion direction of the Storage upstream forced operation has been proposed. This serves to the externally toothed rollers on the storage compartment in at least one movement essentially perpendicular to the counter-toothing with the To bring counter toothing into engagement and thus an inclination when Insert the storage compartment into the guides provided in the refrigerator compartment avoid. Despite this measure, it has been shown that improper use Operation of the storage compartment is not excluded that this in a Inclined position in which the rigidly connected to each other externally toothed rollers move asynchronously when moving the storage compartment move towards each other and in which with the storage compartment in the closed position between its seal and that provided on the housing Support edge gives a gap, due to which heating of the storage compartment Episode is.

Aufbauend auf diesem Stand der Technik ist es Aufgabe der Erfindung, bei einem Kältegerät gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1 mit einfachen konstruktiven Maßnahmen eine Schrägstellung des Ablagefaches korrigieren zu können.Building on this prior art, it is the object of the invention in a Refrigeration device according to the preamble of claim 1 with simple constructive Measures to be able to correct an inclination of the storage compartment.

Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, daß Mittel vorgesehen sind, welche zumindest eine der Gegenverzahnungen und die damit in Eingriff stehende Außenverzahnung der Laufrolle an ihrem von der Laufrolle am Ende der Schließbewegung des Ablagefaches erreichten Abschnitt außer Eingriff mit der Laufrolle zu bringen vermögen, wobei die Länge des Außereingriffs wenigstens eine durch einen Versatz der sich an den Gegenverzahnungen abwälzenden Laufrollen zueinander um eine Zahnteilung ergebende Schrägstellung des Ablagefaches in und entgegen seiner Einschubrichtung auszugleichen vermag.This object is achieved according to the invention in that means are provided which is at least one of the counter gears and the meshing with it External teeth of the roller on the end of the roller Closing motion of the storage compartment out of engagement with the section Can bring roller, the length of the disengagement at least one due to an offset of the rollers that roll on the counter teeth to each other by a tooth pitch resulting inclination of the storage compartment in and is able to compensate against its direction of insertion.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Maßnahme wird selbsttätig bei in Schließstellung befindlichem Ablagefach die Schrägstellung, welche beispielsweise durch eine stoßartige, außermittige Krafteinleitung am Ablagefach hervorgerufen sein kann, ausgeglichen, wodurch die mit einer Dichtung bestückte Ablagefachtür stets dicht am Öffnungsrand der Zugangsöffnung zum Kühlfach anliegt. Auf diese Weise ist folglich eine Spaltbildung zwischen der an der Ablagefachtür vorgesehenen Dichtung und dem Öffnungsrand der Zugangsöffnung zum Kühlfach zwangsläufig vermieden, wodurch auch bei unsachgemäßer Handhabung des Ablagefaches die bestimmungsgemäße Kühlfachtemperatur bei in Schließstellung befindlichem Ablagefach stets sicher gewährleistet ist, da das Ablagefach nach jedem Schließvorgang aus seiner Schrägstellung in eine positionsrichtige Stellung, in welcher die am Ablagefach vorgesehene Tür zumindest weitestgehend parallel zum Öffnungsrand des Kühlfaches verläuft, selbsttätig hergestellt ist. The measure according to the invention becomes automatic when in the closed position located storage compartment, the inclination, which for example by a sudden, eccentric force transmission on the storage compartment can be caused, balanced, whereby the storage compartment door fitted with a seal is always close to The edge of the opening of the access opening to the refrigerator compartment rests. This way is consequently a gap between the seal provided on the storage compartment door and the Inevitably avoided opening edge of the access opening to the refrigerator compartment, whereby even if the storage compartment is improperly handled Refrigerator compartment temperature is always safe with the storage compartment in the closed position is guaranteed because the storage compartment after each closing operation Inclined position in the correct position, in which the on the storage compartment provided door at least largely parallel to the opening edge of the refrigerator compartment runs, is produced automatically.

Nach einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform des Gegenstandes der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß die Mittel durch eine an der Gegenverzahnung vorgesehene Zahnlücke gebildet sind, welche an dem von der Laufrolle am Ende des Schließvorganges des Ablagefaches abgerollten Endabschnitt der Gegenverzahnung angeordnet ist.According to a preferred embodiment of the subject of the invention provided that the means through a provided on the counter teeth Tooth gap are formed, which at the end of the from the roller Closing process of the storage compartment rolled end section of the counter-toothing is arranged.

Durch die Entnahme von Zähnen an der Gegenverzahnung und somit der Schaffung einer Zahnlücke ist auf besonders einfache Weise ein Ausrichten des sich während des Schließvorgangs in einer Schrägstellung befindlichen Ablagefaches am Ende des Schließvorgangs herbeigeführt. Insbesondere läßt sich durch die Schaffung einer Zahnlücke auch eine Schrägstellung unterschiedlichen Ausmaßes auf einfache Weise durch die Herausnahme mehrerer Zähne aus der Gegenverzahnung korrigieren. Darüber hinaus ist es durch die Schaffung einer Zahnlücke möglich, besonders exakt auf die die Außenverzahnung an der Laufrolle charakterisierenden, das Ausmaß der Schrägstellung und somit des sich in Schließstellung ergebenden Spaltes bestimmenden Größen, wie Zahnmodul und Teilkreisdurchmesser, exakt Einfluß nehmen und somit das ursprünglich schräg gestellte Ablagefach besonders positionsgenau korrigieren. Für den Fall, daß die Gegenverzahnung einstückig aus Kunststoffspritzguß hergestellt ist, läßt sich eine beispielsweise durch das Fehlen mehrerer Zähne bewirkte Zahnlücke besonders einfach herstellen.By removing teeth on the counter teeth and thus creating them A tooth gap is a particularly simple way of aligning the during of the closing process in an inclined storage compartment at the end of the Closing process brought about. In particular, by creating a Tooth gap also an inclination of different dimensions in a simple manner correct by removing several teeth from the counter toothing. In addition, by creating a tooth gap, it is possible to be particularly precise to the extent of the characteristic of the external toothing on the roller Inclination and thus the gap resulting in the closed position determining variables, such as tooth module and pitch circle diameter, exactly influence take and thus the originally slanted storage compartment special Correct position. In the event that the counter teeth are made in one piece Plastic injection molding is made, for example, by the lack Tooth gap caused by multiple teeth is particularly easy to produce.

Gemäß einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform des Gegenstandes der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß die Zahnlücke an beiden Gegenverzahnungen vorgesehen ist und daß sich an die Zahnlücken ein Zuführbereich für die Laufrollen mit zumindest annähernd kontinuierlich bis zur Einzahnhöhe aufsteigender Zahnhöhe anschließt.According to a further preferred embodiment of the subject of the invention it is provided that the tooth gap is provided on both counter teeth and that at the tooth gaps a feed area for the rollers with at least connects almost continuously up to the tooth height.

Hierdurch ist zusätzlich zur Möglichkeit, eine Schrägstellung des Ablagefaches ausgleichen zu können, eine besonders ruckfreie Zuführung der außenverzahnten Laufrollen aus den Zahnlücken in die Gegenverzahnung gewährleistet.This is in addition to the possibility of tilting the storage compartment to be able to compensate for a particularly smooth feed of the externally toothed Guaranteed rollers from the tooth gaps in the counter teeth.

Besonders zweckmäßig angeordnet sind die Gegenverzahnungen, wenn nach einer nächsten vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung des Gegenstandes der Erfindung vorgesehen ist, daß jeweils eine der Gegenverzahnungen an einer der in Einschubrichtung des Ablagefaches angeordneten Seitenwände des Kühlraumes vorgesehen ist.

Die Lagerachse 33 ist an ihren freien, gegenüber den Lageraufnahmen 32 vorstehenden Endabschnitten mit je einer Abflachung 34 versehen, welche mit einer im Zentrum einer Laufrolle 35 sitzenden Nabe 36 formschlüssig zusammenwirkt. Durch den Formschluß sind die an den beiden Enden der Lagerachse 33 vorgesehenen Laufrollen 35 in fluchtender Zahnstellung über die Lagerachse 33 verdrehsicher und starr miteinander gekoppelt. Die Laufrollen 35 sind im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel axial auf der Lagerachse einerseits, durch die seitlichen Ränder des Querholmes 29 und andererseits durch nahe an den beiden freien Endabschnitten der Lagerachse 33 vorgesehene, in nicht näher dargestellten Haltenuten eingreifende, nicht näher bezeichnete und üblicherweise für solche Zwecke zum Einsatz kommende Sicherungsringe fixiert (sie hierzu Figur 3).As can be seen in particular from FIG. 2, the spar section 31 remote from the door instructs its lateral end portions bearing receptacles 32 for storing at least one largely torsionally rigid bearing axis 33 (see also figure 3). The bearing axis 33 is at its free, opposite the bearing receptacles 32 projecting end portions each provided with a flat 34, which with a Center of a roller 35 seated hub 36 cooperates positively. By the positive locking is provided at the two ends of the bearing axis 33 Rollers 35 in aligned tooth position on the bearing axis 33 and secure against rotation rigidly coupled. The rollers 35 are here Embodiment axially on the bearing axis on the one hand, through the lateral edges of the cross member 29 and on the other hand by close to the two free end sections the bearing axis 33 provided, engaging in not shown holding grooves, unspecified and usually used for such purposes Circlips fixed (see Figure 3).

Wie insbesondere aus Figur 3 hervorgeht, sind die an der Lagerachse 33 verdrehsicher gehalterten, in Form eines abgestuften Kreiszylinders ausgebildeten Laufrollen 35 an ihrer Mantelfläche 37 in zwei unterschiedlich breite, im wesentlichen der Breite der Laufrollen 35 entsprechende Abschnitte unterteilt, von welchen ein schmäler benachbart zu den seitlichen Rändern des Holmabschnitts 31 angeordneter Abschnitt mit einer glattflächigen Abrollbahn 38 ausgestattet ist. Unmittelbar benachbart zu dem mit der glattflächigen Abrollbahn 38 versehenen Abschnitt weist die Laufrolle 35 einen zweiten, breiter ausgeführten Abschnitt auf, welcher gegenüber dem ersten Abschnitt radial zurückspringt und welcher an seiner Mantelfläche mit einer Außenverzahnung 39 versehen ist, welche für beide Laufrollen 35 mit gleicher Zähnezahl und gleiches Zahnmodul aufweisen (siehe hierzu auch Figur 4).As can be seen in particular from FIG. 3, they are on the bearing axis 33 non-rotating, designed in the form of a stepped circular cylinder Rollers 35 on their lateral surface 37 in two different widths, essentially the width of the rollers 35 divided sections corresponding, one of which narrower adjacent to the side edges of the spar portion 31 Section is equipped with a smooth surface rolling track 38. Right away adjacent to the section provided with the smooth-surface rolling track 38 Roller 35 on a second, wider section, which is opposite to the radially jumps first section and which on its lateral surface with a External teeth 39 is provided, which for both rollers 35 with the same Have the number of teeth and the same tooth module (see also Figure 4).
