Definitions
- the present invention relates to a housing for a refrigeration device with a housing body and a panel mounted on the housing body.
- Fig. 1 shows an example of a view of such a refrigerator.
- the housing body 1 of the refrigeration device is generally composed of an inner wall (not visible in the figure) which delimits the inner chamber of the refrigeration device, an outer wall and a heat insulation layer which is formed by foaming the space between the inner and outer wall.
- the inner and outer walls are connected to one another in the region of the front of the housing body 1, and part of the connecting zone is covered by a panel 3.
- This diaphragm 3 is a hollow body made of plastic, which carries control elements 4 for controlling the function of the refrigeration device on its front side and accommodates control circuits for the cooling device connected to the control elements in its hollow interior, but which could also only have a purely decorative function.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a housing for a refrigeration device with a housing body and a panel mounted on the housing body, which requires only a small wall thickness of the panel, inexpensively and without irregularities in shape is producible, and which, if provided, can facilitate the attachment of circuits or other device parts inside the panel.
- a wall section of the housing body is provided with an edge groove in which a spring formed on a wall of the cover engages.
- At least one lower gripper is formed on the wall of the screen, which rests on the inside of the wall section in the assembled state of the screen.
- the lower gripper preferably does not protrude beyond the spring in the direction of the housing body, so that it lies practically completely inside the cover and is thus protected from damage in an unassembled state of the cover.
- the edge of the wall section expediently has in its area lying between the groove and the inside of the wall section a projection which extends beyond the mouth of the groove and on the inside of which the lower gripper bears in the assembled state.
- This projection simplifies the assembly of the panel, since for the safe insertion of the tongue into the groove it is sufficient to place the edge of the tongue on the projection so that it can then be easily pushed into the groove along its entire length.
- the projection In order to anchor the panel to the housing body in the assembled state, the projection preferably has at least one recess, which in the assembled state of the panel accommodates at least one latching lug formed on the wall of the panel.
- the locking lug is preferably arranged on the wall so that it has no contact with the projection when the tip of the tongue is inserted into the groove. It does not hinder the positioning of the tongue on the groove, the contact only occurs when the tongue is already inserted in the groove and then causes an elastic bending of the wall, which relaxes again as soon as the panel reaches its installation position in the the latch engages in the recess.
- the tongue and groove are preferably shaped in such a way that they engage in one another in a foam-tight manner, so that when the space is foamed after the cover has been fitted, no additional measures are required to prevent the foam from escaping along the boundary line between the wall section of the housing body and the cover.
- FIG. 2 shows a section through an inventive design of the panel and the upper front corner region of the housing body of the refrigeration device from FIG. 1 in the plane defined by the lines denoted by II-II;
- FIG. 3 shows a perspective detailed view of the edge of the upper wall section of the housing of the cooling device.
- Fig. 2 shows a section through the panel 3 and the upper front corner region of the housing body 1 of the refrigerator of Fig. 1 along the lines marked II in Fig. 1.
- the panel 3 is an injection molded plastic hollow body with an upper Wall 5, which ends in a spring 6 on an edge facing the housing body, which extends essentially over the entire width of the diaphragm 3.
- a plurality of lower grippers 7 are formed on an inner side of the upper wall 5, only one of which can be seen in the figure.
- the lower grippers 7 have the shape of hooks with an arm 8 which runs essentially parallel to the wall 5 and which has an inclined surface 9 at its free end.
- the upper wall section 2 of the housing body 1 is part of a profile body made of plastic, which connects the outer and the inner wall of the housing body to one another on the front side thereof. It has on its edge facing the diaphragm 3 a groove 10 in which the spring 6 engages. Below the groove 10 there is a projection 11 facing the panel 3.
- Recesses 12, here in the form of through holes, are formed in the projection 11 in the longitudinal direction at regular intervals.
- locking lugs 15 are each formed in positions complementary to the inclined surfaces 13. Their distance from the tip of the spring 6 is selected such that the latches 15 touch the inclined surfaces 13 during the assembly of the panel 3, shortly after the spring 6 has penetrated into the groove 10 with its tip. When we pushing the panel 3, the locking lugs 15 slide upwards on the inclined surfaces 13, the wall 5, as shown in FIG. 4b, being elastically deflected upward.
- the lower grippers 7 While the locking lugs 15 slide over the top of the projection 11, the lower grippers 7 begin to move into the cutouts 14, provided the cover 3 is correctly positioned in front of the housing body.
- the inclined surfaces 9 at the tips of the lower grippers 7 ensure that they cannot block at the entrance of the cutouts 14. If the cover 3 is positioned laterally offset in front of the housing body 1, the lower grippers 7 do not hit the cutouts 14 and block when inserted into the groove. In this way, the cutouts 14 prevent inaccurate placement of the diaphragm 3.
