Description

Abstellbehälter für Kältegeräte Storage container for refrigeration devices
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Abstellbehälter zur Montage in einer Tür eines Kältegeräts.The present invention relates to a storage container for mounting in a door of a refrigerator.
Derartige Abstellgeräte haben im allgemeinen die Form von im wesentlichen quaderför- migen, oben offenen Kästen, die im wesentlichen vorgesehen sind, um in Flaschen oder Gläsern abgepackte Kühlgüter aufzunehmen. Im allgemeinen sind diese Abstellbehälter mit Rastmitteln versehen, die eine lösbare Befestigung an der Innenfläche der Tür in unterschiedlichen Höhen ermöglichen.Storage devices of this type generally have the form of essentially cuboid boxes which are open at the top and which are essentially provided for receiving refrigerated goods packed in bottles or glasses. In general, these storage containers are provided with latching means which enable releasable attachment to the inner surface of the door at different heights.
Um Kosten zu sparen, ist es für den Hersteller von Kältegeräten wünschenswert, die Türen der Geräte so zu konzipieren, dass eine große Vielfalt von Gerätemodellen mit einer möglichst geringen Zahl unterschiedlicher Modelle von Abstellbehältern bestückt werden kann.In order to save costs, it is desirable for the manufacturer of refrigeration appliances to design the doors of the appliances in such a way that a large variety of appliance models can be equipped with the smallest possible number of different models of storage containers.
Das Ergebnis einer solchen Konstruktion ist jedoch, dass die diversen Gerätemodelle im Innern ein sehr einheitliches Aussehen erhalten, was nicht immer erwünscht ist. Wenn z.B. ein Hersteller unterschiedliche Modellreihen fertigt, von denen z.B. eine auf Funktionalität und ein gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis optimiert ist, wohingegen eine andere möglicherweise eher den Anspruch der Kunden an Exklusivität befriedigen soll, so muss auch die Innenausstattung einschließlich der Tür-Abstellbehälter an den Anspruch der einzelnen Modellreihen angepasst sein. Dies bedeutet bislang, dass derartige Teile nicht innerhalb des gesamten Produktsortiments des Herstellers einheitlich eingesetzt werden können, sondern dass sie jeweils für einzelne Modelle oder Modellserien eigens kon- struiert werden müssen, was mit erheblichen Kosten verbunden ist.The result of such a construction, however, is that the various device models have a very uniform appearance on the inside, which is not always desirable. If e.g. a manufacturer produces different model series, of which e.g. one is optimized for functionality and a good price-performance ratio, whereas another may be more likely to satisfy the customer's demand for exclusivity, the interior including the door storage container must also be adapted to the requirements of the individual model series. So far, this means that such parts cannot be used uniformly within the manufacturer's entire product range, but that they have to be designed specifically for individual models or model series, which is associated with considerable costs.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist, einen Abstellbehälter zur Montage in einer Tür eines Kältegeräts, dessen äußeres Erscheinungsbild auf einfache Weise veränderbar ist und der dadurch geeignet ist, in einer Vielzahl von Modellreihen verwendet zu werden, bzw. ein Kältegerät mit einem auf einfache Weise variablen Aussehen im Innern zu schaffen. Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß gelöst durch einen Abstellbehälter, der aus einem an einer Sichtseite mit einem Ausschnitt versehenen Behälterkorpus und einem am Behälterkorpus befestigten, den Ausschnitt überbrückenden Querelement aufgebaut ist. Der Ausschnitt kann sich über einen großen Teil der Fläche der Sichtseite erstrecken, so dass die optische Gestaltung des Querelements den ästhetischen Gesamteindruck eines Betrachters von dem Abstellbehälter bestimmt, und der Korpus demgegenüber in der Wahrnehmung des Betrachters in den Hintergrund tritt. Der Korpus kann daher für eine Vielzahl von Modellen oder Modellreihen einheitlich gefertigt werden, eine Anpassung des Abstellbehälters an ein gewünschtes Erscheinungsbild der Kältegeräte einer Modellreihe kann ausschließlich mit Hilfe des Querelements erfolgen. Für den Behälterkorpus ergeben sich so Einsparungen bei der Fertigung, da dieser in größeren Stückzahlen hergestellt und eingesetzt werden kann. Eine Anpassung an ein gewünschtes äußeres Erscheinungsbild der einzelnen Modellreihen erfolgt durch die Auswahl des Querelements, das in einer begrenzten Zahl von Versionen konstruiert werden muss, wobei allerdings der Aufwand zu seiner Konstruktion und zur Herstellung der jeweils zu seiner Produktion spezifisch benötigten Werkzeuge wesentlich geringer ist, als bei einem vollständigen Abstellbehälter.The object of the present invention is a storage container for mounting in a door of a refrigerator, the external appearance of which can be changed in a simple manner and which is therefore suitable for being used in a large number of model series, or a refrigerator with an easily variable appearance to create inside. The object is achieved according to the invention by a storage container which is constructed from a container body provided with a cutout on one visible side and a transverse element which is fastened to the container body and bridges the cutout. The cutout can extend over a large part of the surface of the visible side, so that the optical design of the cross element determines the overall aesthetic impression of a viewer from the storage container, and the body, in contrast, perceives itself in the viewer's perception. The body can therefore be manufactured uniformly for a large number of models or model series; the storage container can be adapted to the desired appearance of the refrigeration units in a model series only with the aid of the cross element. This results in savings in manufacturing for the container body, since it can be manufactured and used in larger quantities. An adaptation to a desired external appearance of the individual model series takes place through the selection of the cross element, which has to be constructed in a limited number of versions, although the effort for its construction and for the production of the tools specifically required for its production is considerably less, than with a complete storage container.
Um das Querelement in für einen Benutzer möglichst wenig auffälliger Weise am Behälterkorpus zu befestigen, sind vorzugsweise an gegenüberliegenden Rändern des Aus- Schnitts zum Innern des Behälterkorpus offene Rastaussparungen zum Verrasten von Kopfabschnitten des Querelements vorgesehen.In order to attach the cross element to the container body in a way that is as unobtrusive as possible for a user, open locking recesses for locking head sections of the cross element are preferably provided on opposite edges of the cutout for the interior of the container body.
Vorzugsweise weist das Querelement einen langgestreckten Mittelabschnitt auf, der sich von einem der gegenüberliegenden Ränder des Ausschnitts zum anderen erstreckt und mit den Kopfabschnitten in seiner Längsrichtung steckverbunden ist. Diese Ausgestaltung erlaubt es, auch die Kopfabschnitte für diverse Modellreihen einheitlich zu verwenden, und lediglich den von außen deutlich sichtbaren Mittelabschnitt modellreihenspezifisch anzufertigen.The transverse element preferably has an elongated central section which extends from one of the opposite edges of the cutout to the other and is plug-connected to the head sections in its longitudinal direction. This configuration also allows the head sections to be used uniformly for various model series, and only the middle section, which is clearly visible from the outside, to be produced specifically for the model series.
Jeder Kopfabschnitt weist wenigstens einen, vorzugsweise wenigstens zwei dem Mittelabschnitt zugewandte Bohrungen auf, die zum Aufnehmen von an den Enden des Mittelabschnitts vorgesehenen Zapfen dienen können. Es können aber auch umgekehrt Zapfen am Kopfabschnitt und Bohrungen in dem Mittelabschnitt vorgesehen werden. Eine mögliche und praktische Erscheinungsform des Mittelabschnitts ist wenigstens eine mit ihren Enden in die Bohrungen eingreifende Stange. Wenn der Kopfabschnitt wenigstens zwei Bohrungen aufweist, so kann insbesondere Abhängigkeit von der Höhe des Behälterkorpus bzw. des Ausschnitts ein aus einer einzelnen oder aus wenigstens zwei Stangen bestehender Mittelabschnitt verwendet werden.Each head section has at least one, preferably at least two bores facing the central section, which can serve to receive pins provided at the ends of the central section. Conversely, pins on the head section and bores in the middle section can also be provided. A possible and practical appearance of the central section is at least one rod engaging with its ends in the bores. If the head section has at least two bores, a central section consisting of a single or of at least two rods can be used in particular depending on the height of the container body or the cutout.
Der Durchmesser der Stange entspricht vorzugsweise dem der Bohrungen.The diameter of the rod preferably corresponds to that of the bores.
Eine solche Stange kann aus Stahl oder anderem geeigneten Metall bestehen.Such a rod can be made of steel or other suitable metal.
Alternativ kann der Mittelabschnitt auch die Form eines Hohlprofils, insbesondere mit U- förmigem oder rechteckförmigem Querschnitt haben. Ein solches Hohlprofil kann aus einem Kunststoff bestehen, der, um eine optische Differenzierung zum Korpus des Behälters zu erreichen, z.B. transparent oder eingefärbt sein kann, während der Behälterkorpus herkömmlicherweise im allgemeinen aus einem weißen Kunststoff besteht.Alternatively, the central section can also have the shape of a hollow profile, in particular with a U-shaped or rectangular cross section. Such a hollow profile can consist of a plastic which, in order to achieve an optical differentiation from the body of the container, e.g. can be transparent or colored, while the container body is conventionally generally made of a white plastic.
Eine weitere Gestaltungsmöglichkeit ist die Verwendung eines Mittelabschnitts in Form eines die gesamte Fläche des Ausschnitts überdeckenden Schildes. Ein solches Schild kann aus den gleichen Materialien wie das erwähnte Hohlprofil gefertigt sein.Another design option is the use of a central section in the form of a sign covering the entire area of the cutout. Such a sign can be made of the same materials as the hollow profile mentioned.
Die Aufgabe wird ferner gelöst durch ein Kältegerät, das mit einer Mehrzahl von Abstellbehältern der oben definierten Art ausgerüstet ist.The object is further achieved by a refrigeration device which is equipped with a plurality of storage containers of the type defined above.

Fig. 6 einen Schnitt entlang der Linie Vl-Vl aus Fig. 5; und6 shows a section along the line VI-VI from FIG. 5; and
Fig. 7 eine perspektivische Teilansicht eines Querelements gemäß einer dritten Aus- gestaltung der Erfindung.7 shows a perspective partial view of a cross element according to a third embodiment of the invention.
Fig. 1 zeigt eine perspektivische Innenansicht einer Tür 1 eines Kältegeräts. An der Tür sind vier Abstellbehälter 2 bis 5 mittels (nicht dargestellter) lösbarer Rastverbindungen montiert. Die Abstellbehälter 2, 4, 5 weisen an ihrer dem Betrachter zugewandten Sicht- seite 8 jeweils einen langgestreckten Ausschnitt 9 auf, der sich von dem oberen Rand der Sichtseite aus etwa über die Hälfte von deren Höhe erstreckt. Ein Querelement 10, bestehend aus einer einzelnen zylindrischen Metallstange 11 im Falle der Abstellbehälter 2, 4 und aus zwei parallelen Metallstangen 11 im Falle des höheren Abstellbehälters 5, erstreckt sich quer über den Ausschnitt 9.Fig. 1 shows a perspective interior view of a door 1 of a refrigerator. Four storage containers 2 to 5 are mounted on the door by means of detachable snap connections (not shown). The storage containers 2, 4, 5 each have an elongated cutout 9 on their visible side 8 facing the viewer, which extends from the upper edge of the visible side to approximately half of its height. A transverse element 10, consisting of a single cylindrical metal rod 11 in the case of the storage containers 2, 4 and of two parallel metal rods 11 in the case of the higher storage container 5, extends across the cutout 9.
Fig. 2 zeigt in einer auseinandergezogenen Darstellung, wie das Querelement 10 an der Sichtseite 8 des Korpus 7 montiert ist. Die Fig. ist eine perspektivische Ansicht der Sichtseitenwand 13 des Korpus 7 und einer Schmalseitenwand 14, gesehen vom Innern des Behälters her. An der Sichtseitenwand 13 ist eine zum Behälterinneren und zum Rand 12 des Ausschnitts 9 hin offene Rastaussparung 15 gebildet. Ein Kopfstück 16 ist zum formschlüssigen Eingriff in der Rastaussparung 16 vorgesehen. Das Kopfstück 16 weist zwei Bohrungen 17 auf, die jeweils bemessen sind, um ein Ende einer Stange wie der gezeigten Stange 11 aufzunehmen.2 shows an exploded view of how the cross element 10 is mounted on the visible side 8 of the body 7. The Fig. Is a perspective view of the visible side wall 13 of the body 7 and a narrow side wall 14, seen from the inside of the container. On the visible side wall 13, a latching cutout 15 is formed which is open towards the interior of the container and towards the edge 12 of the cutout 9. A head piece 16 is provided for positive engagement in the locking recess 16. The header 16 has two bores 17 each sized to receive one end of a rod such as the rod 11 shown.
Wenn das Kopfstück 16 an einem hohen Abstellbehälter wie etwa dem Behälter 5 verwendet wird, wird eine Stange 11 in jede Bohrung 17 eingesteckt und das so aus zwei Stangen 11 und zwei Kopfstücken 16 gebildete Querelement 10 wird vom Innenraum des Korpus 7 her in die zwei Rastaussparungen 15 in Richtung des Pfeils A eingeschoben. Bei Verwendung zusammen mit einem niedrigen Korpus, so im Falle der Abstellbehälter 2, 4, wird nur die obere Bohrung 17 des Kopfstücks 16 mit einer Stange 11 versehen; die untere Bohrung kann, damit sie einem Betrachter nicht auffällt und keinen Schmutz sammeln kann, mit einem (nicht dargestellten) Kunststoffstopfen verschlossen werden. Dieser Stopfen, das Kopfstück 16 und der Korpus 7 bestehen vorzugsweise aus dem gleichen Kunststoffmaterial.If the head piece 16 is used on a high storage container such as the container 5, a rod 11 is inserted into each bore 17 and the cross member 10 thus formed from two rods 11 and two head pieces 16 is from the interior of the body 7 in the two locking recesses 15 inserted in the direction of arrow A. When used together with a low body, so in the case of the storage containers 2, 4, only the upper bore 17 of the head piece 16 is provided with a rod 11; the lower hole can be closed with a plastic plug (not shown) so that it is not noticeable to an observer and cannot collect dirt. This stopper, the head piece 16 and the body 7 are preferably made of the same plastic material.
Fig. 3 zeigt eine Ansicht des Kopfstücks 6 aus einer zu den Bohrungen 17 parallelen Richtung. An der Unterseite des Kopfstücks 16 ist eine flexibel eindrückbare Zunge 18 zu erkennen, die beim Eindrücken des Kopfstücks 16 in die Rastaussparung 15 ins Innere des Kopfstücks 16 verdrängt wird und, sobald dieses seine Endposition in der Rastaussparung 15 erreicht hat, wieder elastisch ausklappt und in eine Vertiefung 19 der unteren Seitenwand der Rastaussparung 15 eingreift, um das Kopfstück 16 darin zu verrasten. Entsprechende Zungen und Vertiefungen können auch an anderen Seitenflächen des Kopfstücks 16 und der Rastaussparung 15 vorgesehen sein.3 shows a view of the head piece 6 from a direction parallel to the bores 17. On the underside of the head piece 16, a tongue 18 which can be pressed in flexibly can be seen, which is pushed into the interior of the head piece 16 when the head piece 16 is pressed into the latching recess 15 and, as soon as it has reached its end position in the latching recess 15, again folds out and in a recess 19 of the lower side wall of the locking recess 15 engages to lock the head piece 16 therein. Corresponding tongues and depressions can also be provided on other side surfaces of the head piece 16 and the locking recess 15.
Fig. 4 zeigt in einer perspektivischen Teilansicht einen Abstellbehälter gemäß einer zweiten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung. Der Korpus 7 dieses Abstellbehälters ist identisch mit denen der Figs. 1, 2, lediglich das Erscheinungsbild des Querelements ist verändert. An- stelle von ein oder zwei Stangen 11 hat das Querelement 10' als für den Betrachter sichtbaren Mittelabschnitt ein Hohlprofil 20 aus transparentem Kunststoff. Die obere Kante des Hohlprofils 20 verläuft bündig mit der des Korpus 7.Fig. 4 shows a perspective partial view of a storage container according to a second embodiment of the invention. The body 7 of this storage container is identical to that of Figs. 1, 2, only the appearance of the cross element is changed. Instead of one or two rods 11, the cross element 10 'has a hollow profile 20 made of transparent plastic as the central section visible to the viewer. The upper edge of the hollow profile 20 runs flush with that of the body 7.
Die Figs. 5 und 6 zeigen jeweils einen Längsschnitt durch den Kopfbereich bzw. einen Querschnitt des Querelements 10'. Der Mittelabschnitt des Querelements 10' ist durch ein nach unten offenes U-Profil 21 gebildet, das an den Längsenden jeweils durch eine zwei Zapfen 22 tragende Platte 23 verschlossen ist. Die Zapfen 22 sind in Bohrungen 17 eines Kopfstücks 16 eingesteckt, das mit dem in Fig. 2 und 3 gezeigten identisch ist. Zum Montieren des Querelements 10' genügt es daher, jeweils zwei Kopfstücke 16 auf die Zapfen 22 aufzustecken, und dann das derart vervollständigte Querelement 10' von hinten in die Aussparungen 15 des Korpus 7 einzudrücken. Alternativ ist es natürlich auch möglich, einen Kopfabschnitt mit geeigneten Rastzungen einteilig an den Mittelabschnitt anzuformen oder fest mit diesem zu verbinden.Figs. 5 and 6 each show a longitudinal section through the head region or a cross section of the transverse element 10 '. The middle section of the cross member 10 'is formed by a downwardly open U-profile 21, which is closed at the longitudinal ends in each case by a plate 23 carrying two pins 22. The pins 22 are inserted into bores 17 of a head piece 16, which is identical to that shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. To mount the cross element 10 ', it is therefore sufficient to attach two head pieces 16 to the pins 22, and then to press the cross element 10' thus completed into the recesses 15 of the body 7 from behind. Alternatively, it is of course also possible to form a head section in one piece with suitable latching tongues on the central section or to connect it firmly to the latter.
Das unten offene U-Profil 21 kann auch durch ein Hohlprofil mit geschlossenem Querschnitt, insbesondere ein Rechteckprofil ersetzt werden.The U-profile 21, which is open at the bottom, can also be replaced by a hollow profile with a closed cross section, in particular a rectangular profile.
Fig. 7 zeigt eine perspektivische Teilansicht eines Querelements 10" gemäß einer dritten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung. Bei dieser Ausgestaltung kann der Mittelabschnitt 24 des Querelements 10" ebenfalls als ein Hohlprofil aufgefasst werden, wobei allerdings im Gegensatz zum Ausführungsbeispiel der Figs. 4 bis 6 die seitlichen Flanken des Profils nach unten verlängert und in ihrem Umriss der Form der Ausschnitts 9 angepasst sind, so dass sie ein Schild bilden, das den Ausschnitt 9 komplett verschließt.7 shows a perspective partial view of a transverse element 10 "according to a third embodiment of the invention. In this embodiment, the central section 24 of the transverse element 10" can also be regarded as a hollow profile, although in contrast to the exemplary embodiment of FIGS. 4 to 6, the side flanks of the profile are extended downward and the outline of the shape of the cutout 9 is adjusted so that they form a sign which closes the cutout 9 completely.
In der Fig. 7 ist eine Ausgestaltung mit zwei kongruenten Flanken gezeigt. Alternativ möglich ist, dass nur die äußere der zwei Flanken sich über die ganze Fläche des Ausschnitts erstreckt und die zum Behälterinneren gelegene Flanke kleiner oder ganz fortgelassen ist. 7 shows an embodiment with two congruent flanks. Alternatively, it is possible that only the outer of the two flanks extends over the entire surface of the cutout and the flank located to the inside of the container is smaller or completely omitted.
