Abstract

A storage container which can be mounted in the door of a refrigerator, consisting of a container body (1) and a decorative panel (10) forming a part which is separate from the body of the container.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Kältegerät mit einem Abstellbehälter zur Montage in einer Tür des Kältegeräts.The present invention relates to a refrigerator with a storage container for mounting in a door of the refrigerator.

Derartige Abstellbehälter haben im allgemeinen die Form von im wesentlichen quaderförmigen, 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. Ein derartiges Kältegerät mit Abstellbehälter ist beispielsweise in EP-A-0 962 731 offenbart.Such storage containers generally have the shape of substantially cuboidal, open-topped boxes, which are provided substantially in order to Bottles or jars of packaged refrigerated goods. In general, these are Storage container provided with locking means, which is a detachable attachment to the inner surface allow the door at different heights. Such a refrigerator with storage container is disclosed, for example, in EP-A-0 962 731.

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 Abstellbehälter bestückt werden kann.In order to save costs, it is desirable for the manufacturer of refrigeration appliances, the Doors of devices designed to handle a wide variety of device models the smallest possible number of different storage containers can be fitted.

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 dem 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 konstruiert werden müssen, was mit erheblichen Kosten verbunden ist.The result of such a construction, however, is that the various device models in the Inside a very uniform look, which is not always desirable. If e.g. a manufacturer makes different series of models, e.g. one on Functionality and good value for money is optimized, whereas one others are more likely to satisfy customers' demand for exclusivity, so must the interior including the door storage box to the Claim the individual model series adapted. This means so far that such parts are not uniform throughout the product range of the manufacturer can be used, but that each for individual models or Model series need to be specially constructed, which involves considerable costs is.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist, ein Kältegerät mit einem auf einfache Weise variablen Aussehen im Innern zu schaffen.Object of the present invention is a refrigeration device with a simple way to create a variable look inside.

Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß gelöst durch ein Kältegerät mit einem Abstellbehälter zur Montage in einer Tür des Kältegeräts, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Abstellbehälter aus einem Behälterkorpus und einer ein vom Behälterkorpus getrenntes Teil bildenden Dekorblende aufgebaut ist.The object is achieved by a refrigeration device with a storage container for mounting in a door of the refrigerator, characterized in that the Storage container from a container body and a separate from the container body Part forming decorative trim is constructed.

Der Behälterkorpus kann in einer Vielzahl von Modellreihen in völlig unveränderter Form zum Einsatz kommen, eine Anpassung des Abstellbehälters an ein gewünschtes Erscheinungsbild der Kältegeräte einer Modellreihe kann ausschließlich mit Hilfe der Dekorblende 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 allein durch die Dekorblende, die somit in einer begrenzten Zahl von Versionen konstruiert werden muss, wobei allerdings der Aufwand zu ihrer Konstruktion und zur Herstellung der jeweils spezifisch benötigten Produktionswerkzeuge wesentlich geringer ist, als bei einem vollständigen Abstellbehälter.The container body can be in a variety of model rows in a completely unchanged form be used, an adaptation of the storage container to a desired Appearance of the refrigeration units of a model series can only with the help of Decor panel done. For the container body, this results in savings in the Production, as this can be produced and used in larger quantities. An adaptation to a desired external appearance of the individual Model series takes place solely by the decorative panel, which thus in a limited number of Versions must be constructed, however, the effort to their construction and for the production of each specifically required production tools essential is lower than with a complete storage container.

Um die Anbringung der Dekorblende am Abstellbehälter zu vereinfachen, ist wenigstens an einer Sichtseite des Abstellbehälters ein vertieftes Feld zum Aufnehmen der Dekorblende ausgebildet. Durch formschlüssiges Einfügen der Dekorblende in das Feld ist deren Position exakt definiert, die Anbringung kann daher auf einfache Weise ohne Maßnehmen erfolgen.To simplify the attachment of the decorative trim on the storage container is at least on a visible side of the storage container a recessed field for receiving the Decorative trim formed. By form-fitting insertion of the decorative trim in the field is their position exactly defined, the attachment can therefore easily without Measure taken.

Einer ersten Ausgestaltung zufolge ist das vertiefte Feld zum oberen Rand der Sichtseite hin offen, um ein Aufstecken der Dekorblende von oben zu ermöglichen.According to a first embodiment, the recessed field is to the upper edge of the visible side open to allow attaching the decorative panel from above.

Insbesondere in diesem Fall ist es zweckmäßig, wenn die Dekorblende eine den oberen Rand des Behälterkorpus umgreifende Krempe aufweist, die der aufgesteckten Dekorblende am Korpus Halt gibt.In particular, in this case, it is expedient if the decorative panel a the top Edge of the container body encompassing brim, which has the plugged Decor panel on the body gives grip.

Zweckmäßigerweise kann vorgesehen werden, dass die Stärke der Dekorblende der Tiefe des vertieften Feldes entspricht. Auf diese Weise ergibt sich eine bündige Außenseite des Abstellbehälters mit daran montierter Dekorblende, die für einen Benutzer leicht sauber zu halten ist. Conveniently, it can be provided that the thickness of the decorative panel of the depth corresponds to the recessed field. In this way, a flush outside of the results Storage bin with decorative trim mounted on it, easy for a user to clean hold is.
