Description

Einbaukältegerät mit lichtdurchlässiger Tür Built-in refrigerator with translucent door
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Kältegerät mit einem wärmeisolierenden Gehäuse und wenigstens einer Gehäusetür zum Verschließen eines im Innern des Gehäuses gebildeten Lagerraums, wobei die Tür wenigstens auf einem Teil ihrer Fläche lichtdurchläs- sig ist.The present invention relates to a refrigerator with a heat-insulating housing and at least one housing door for closing a storage space formed in the interior of the housing, the door being translucent on at least part of its surface.
Derartige Kältegeräte kommen insbesondere im Selbstbedienungs-Lebensmittelhandei zum Einsatz, wo sie zum Lagern von Tiefkühlkost eingesetzt werden und Kunden das Betrachten der darin enthaltenen Waren ermöglichen, ohne dass hierfür die Tür des Käl- tegeräts geöffnet werden muss und unerwünschte Wärme in den Lagerraum eindringt.Refrigerators of this type are used in particular in self-service grocery stores, where they are used to store frozen food and allow customers to view the goods contained therein without having to open the door of the refrigerator and unwanted heat penetrating into the storage space.
Diese Geräte sind als Standgeräte ausgelegt, in ihrer äußeren Gestaltung im allgemeinen anspruchslos und wenig variabel. Sie eignen sich daher schlecht für den Einsatz in Umgebungen, in denen auf eine ansprechende Raumgestaltung Wert gelegt wird, wie etwa in den den Gästen zugänglichen Bereichen gastronomischer Betriebe.These devices are designed as free-standing devices, their external design is generally undemanding and not very variable. They are therefore poorly suited for use in environments in which an appealing interior design is important, such as in the areas of catering establishments that are accessible to guests.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist, ein Kältegerät zu schaffen, mit dem es möglich ist, Waren, die einer kühlen oder temperierten Lagerung bedürfen, in einer ästhetisch ansprechenden Form zu präsentieren, die an die Ausstattung eines Raumes, in der das Ge- rät aufgestellt werden soll, in einfacher Weise anpassbar ist.The object of the present invention is to provide a refrigeration device with which it is possible to present goods which require cool or tempered storage in an aesthetically appealing form, which are adapted to the equipment of a room in which the device is installed should be easily adaptable.
Die Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, dass das Kältegerät als Einbaugerät ausgelegt ist.The task is solved in that the refrigeration device is designed as a built-in device.
Herkömmliche Einbaukältegeräte haben im allgemeinen eine Tür mit einer ästhetisch we- nig ansprechenden Vorderseite aus einem preiswerten Material, die nicht vorgesehen ist, um für einen Benutzer direkt sichtbar zu sein, sondern hinter einer Möbeltür verdeckt zu werden. Möbeltür und Kältegerätetür sind, dabei z.B. jede an einem eigenen Scharnier aufgehängt und beim Öffnen schienengeführt gegeneinander verschieblich.Conventional built-in refrigeration devices generally have a door with an aesthetically unappealing front made of an inexpensive material, which is not intended to be directly visible to a user, but rather to be hidden behind a furniture door. Furniture door and refrigerator door are, e.g. each hung on its own hinge and slidable against each other when opened on rails.
In Abkehr von der bislang in Fachwelt herrschenden Meinung, dass die Türen von Einbaugeräten im Aussehen und/oder Formgebung an die benachbarten Möbelfronten einer Küchenzeile z.B. durch Möbelfronten anzupassen sind, wird nunmehr ein Einbaukältege- rät mit einer lichtdurchlässig ausgebildeten Tür vorgeschlagen. Die Tür dieses Einbaugerätes hebt sich also von den benachbarten Möbelfronten einer Küchenzeile in einer die Technik bereichernden Weise ab.In departure from the previously prevailing opinion in the professional world that the doors of built-in appliances should be adapted in appearance and / or shape to the neighboring furniture fronts of a kitchen unit, for example by means of furniture fronts, a built-in refrigeration advises with a translucent door proposed. The door of this built-in device thus stands out from the neighboring furniture fronts of a kitchenette in a way that enriches the technology.
Eine solche Möbeltür entfällt bei einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung des erfindungsgemä- ßen Kältegeräts. Statt dessen kann die Gehäusetür des Kältegeräts selbst aus hochwertigem, ästhetisch ansprechenden Materialien gefertigt sein.Such a furniture door is omitted in a preferred embodiment of the refrigeration device according to the invention. Instead, the housing door of the refrigerator can itself be made from high-quality, aesthetically pleasing materials.
Wenn bei einer anderen Ausgestaltung des erfindungsgemäßen Kältegeräts eine Möbeltür vorhanden ist, so kann sie insbesondere wenn sie auf einem Bereich, der der licht- durchlässigen Fläche der Gehäusetür entspricht, ausgespart ist, leichter als eine herkömmliche Möbeltür für ein Einbaukältegerät sein, so dass es zweckmäßig sein kann, die Möbeltür an der Gehäusetür vorgesetzt und unverschieblich zu montieren.If, in another embodiment of the refrigeration device according to the invention, a furniture door is present, it can be lighter than a conventional furniture door for a built-in refrigeration device, in particular if it is recessed in an area that corresponds to the translucent surface of the housing door, so that it is expedient may be, the furniture door on the housing door in front of and immovable to mount.
Der lichtdurchlässige Teil der Gehäusetürfläche ist vorzugsweise durchsichtig, um dahin- ter gelagerte Gegenstände in allen Details sichtbar zu machen. Denkbar ist aber auch, sie mit einer, mehr oder weniger intensiven Trübung zu versehen, so dass zwar von außen erkennbar ist, dass ein Gegenstand im Lagerraum vorhanden ist, ohne dass jedoch dieser Gegenstand im einzelnen erkennbar wird.The translucent part of the housing door surface is preferably transparent in order to make objects located behind visible in all details. However, it is also conceivable to provide them with a more or less intense cloudiness, so that it can be seen from the outside that an object is present in the storage room, but without this object being recognizable in detail.
Der lichtdurchlässige Teil der Gehäusetür ist zweckmäßigerweise durch eine Isolierglasscheibe, d.h. eine Anordnung von zwei oder mehr jeweils durch isolierende Gasschichten getrennten Glasscheiben, gebildet. Bei dem Glas der Scheiben kann es sich insbesondere um Mineralglas oder um einen lichtdurchlässigen Kunststoff handeln.The translucent part of the housing door is expediently covered by an insulating glass pane, i.e. an arrangement of two or more glass panes each separated by insulating gas layers. The glass of the panes can in particular be mineral glass or a translucent plastic.
Vorzugsweise ist das erfindungsgemäße Kältegerät ausgelegt als Lagerschrank für Flaschen, insbesondere für Weinflaschen.The refrigeration device according to the invention is preferably designed as a storage cabinet for bottles, in particular for wine bottles.
Weitere Merkmale und Vorteile der vorliegenden Erfindung ergeben sich aus der nachfolgenden Beschreibung eines Ausführungsbeispiels anhand der beigefügten Figuren.Further features and advantages of the present invention result from the following description of an exemplary embodiment with reference to the attached figures.
Fig. 1 zeigt eine perspektivische Ansicht eines erfindungsgemäßen Kältegerätes.; und Figs. 2 und 3 jeweils Teilschnitte durch eine Gerätetür gemäß zwei verschiedener Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung.Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of a refrigerator according to the invention .; and Figs. 2 and 3 are partial sections through an appliance door according to two different embodiments of the invention.
Das in Fig. 1 gezeigte Kältegerät hat ein Gehäuse, das in an sich bekannter Weise aufgebaut ist aus einem aus Kunststoff tiefgezogenen Innenbehälter 1 , der das Lagerfach im Innern des Gerätes begrenzt, einer Außenwandung 2, die z.B. aus Blechen zusammengefügt ist oder ebenfalls aus einer Kunststoffplatte tiefgezogen sein kann, und die zusammen mit dem Innenbehälter einen Zwischenraum mit thermisch isolierender Schaumstofffüllung begrenzt. An die Seiten des Innenbehälters 1 angeformte Stege 3 tragen Fachböden 4, 5. Die Fachböden 4, 5 sind jeweils aufgebaut aus einem viereckigen Rahmen 6 aus Aluminium-Druckguß, an dem eine Mehrzahl von sich in Tiefenrichtung des Innenbehälters 1 erstreckenden, zylindersegmentförmigen Schalen 7 angebracht ist. Die Schalen 7 sind jeweils an einer vorderen und einer hinteren Strebe 8 bzw. 9 des Rahmens 6 befestigt und untereinander unverbunden. Die Schalen 7 bestehen aus einem mattierten, durchscheinenden Mineralglas oder Kunststoff.The refrigeration device shown in Fig. 1 has a housing which is constructed in a manner known per se from an inner container 1 which is deep-drawn from plastic and which delimits the storage compartment inside the device, an outer wall 2 which e.g. is assembled from sheet metal or can also be deep-drawn from a plastic plate, and which, together with the inner container, delimits an intermediate space with thermally insulating foam filling. Shaped webs 3 carry shelves 4, 5 on the sides of the inner container 1. The shelves 4, 5 are each constructed from a square frame 6 made of die-cast aluminum, to which a plurality of shells 7 in the form of a cylinder segment extending in the depth direction of the inner container 1 are attached is. The shells 7 are each fastened to a front and a rear strut 8 or 9 of the frame 6 and are not connected to one another. The shells 7 consist of a matt, translucent mineral glass or plastic.
Hinter einer in das Lagerfach eingreifenden Ausbuchtung 10 des Innenbehälters 1 ist in an sich bekannter Weise ein Kompressor der Kältemaschine des Kältegerätes untergebracht. In Höhe dieser Ausbuchtung 10 ist kein rechteckiger Fachboden montierbar; um den hier zu Verfügung stehenden Platz optimal zu nutzen, ist ein Fachboden 11 mit einer durchgehenden Platte über Stäbe 12 abgehängt am Rahmen 6 des Fachbodens 5 befestigt. Dieser Fachboden 11 sowie die darunter liegende Bodenfläche des Innenbehälters 1 können in ihrem Bereich vor der Ausbuchtung 10 z.B. zur Lagerung von kleineren Flaschen genutzt werden als denen, für die die Schalen 7 dimensioniert sind.Behind a bulge 10 of the inner container 1 which engages in the storage compartment, a compressor of the refrigerator of the refrigerator is accommodated in a manner known per se. No rectangular shelf can be mounted at the level of this bulge 10; In order to make optimal use of the space available here, a shelf 11 with a continuous plate suspended over rods 12 is fastened to the frame 6 of the shelf 5. This shelf 11 and the underlying bottom surface of the inner container 1 can e.g. can be used to store smaller bottles than those for which the trays 7 are dimensioned.
Das oben beschriebene Lagerfach ist durch die geschlossene Gehäusetür 13 hindurch sichtbar. Diese Gehäusetür 13 ist gebildet durch eine Isolierglasscheibe 14, die einen großen Teil der Fläche der Gehäusetür 13 ausfüllt, und die eingefasst ist in einen aus Aluminium-Strangpressprofilen zusammengesetzten Rahmen.The storage compartment described above is visible through the closed housing door 13. This housing door 13 is formed by an insulating glass pane 14, which fills a large part of the area of the housing door 13, and which is enclosed in a frame composed of extruded aluminum profiles.
Beispiele für eine mögliche Querschnittsstruktur der Gehäusetür 13 sind in Figs. 2 und 3 gezeigt, die jeweils, die jeweils einen Teilschnitt durch die Gehäusetür 13 in Höhe des Türgriffs 15 zeigen. Bei der Ausgestaltung der Fig. 2 erstreckt sich die Isolierglasscheibe 14 über die gesamte Fläche der Gehäusetür 13, und eine Magnetdichtung 16 zum Abdichten eines Spalts zwischen Innenbehälter 1 und Gehäusetür 13 ist an der inneren Scheibe 17 der zwei Scheiben 17, 18 befestigt, die die Isolierglasscheibe 14 bilden. Auf der äußeren Scheibe 18 ist in ihrem Randbereich ein Aluminiumprofil 19 mit C-förmigem Querschnitt befestigt, wel- ches den Türgriff 15, z.B. durch Verschraubung, trägt und dessen hohler Innenraum 20 mit isolierendem Schaumstoffmaterial ausgefüllt sein kann. Eine äußere Einfassung der Gehäusetür 13 ist von einem zweiten Aluminiumprofil 21 mit C-förmigem Querschnitt gebildet, von dessen zwei parallelen Schenkeln einer an der Außenseite des Profils 19 und der andere an der inneren Scheibe 17 anliegt.Examples of a possible cross-sectional structure of the housing door 13 are shown in Figs. 2 and 3 are shown, each of which shows a partial section through the housing door 13 at the level of the door handle 15. 2, the insulating glass pane 14 extends over the entire surface of the housing door 13, and a magnetic seal 16 for sealing a gap between the inner container 1 and the housing door 13 is fastened to the inner pane 17 of the two panes 17, 18, which the Form insulating glass pane 14. On the outer pane 18, an aluminum profile 19 with a C-shaped cross-section is fastened in its edge area, which carries the door handle 15, for example by screwing, and the hollow interior 20 of which can be filled with insulating foam material. An outer border of the housing door 13 is formed by a second aluminum profile 21 with a C-shaped cross section, of whose two parallel legs one abuts the outside of the profile 19 and the other on the inner pane 17.
Bei der Gehäusetür nach Fig. 3 sind die zwei Aluminiumprofile 19, 21 identisch mit denen der Fig. 2 und brauchen deshalb nicht erneut beschrieben zu werden. Die Isolierglasscheibe 14 ist gegenüber der der Fig. 2 verkleinert; sie erreicht nicht das äußere Profil 21 , sondern endet bereits in einem geringen Abstand von dem inneren Schenkel 22 des Pro- fils 19. Die innere Scheibe 17 liegt an einer Zunge 23 eines Kunststoffprofils 24 an, das auch einen Teil des Innenraums 20 des Aluminiumprofils 19 ausfüllt und mit dem Profil 19 fest verbunden ist. Auch das Kunststoffprofil 24 kann mit in dem Querschnitt nicht dargestellten, mit Isolierschaum gefüllten Hohlräumen versehen sein.3, the two aluminum profiles 19, 21 are identical to those of FIG. 2 and therefore do not need to be described again. The insulating glass pane 14 is smaller than that of FIG. 2; it does not reach the outer profile 21, but already ends at a short distance from the inner leg 22 of the profile 19. The inner disk 17 lies against a tongue 23 of a plastic profile 24, which also forms part of the interior 20 of the aluminum profile 19 fills and is firmly connected to the profile 19. The plastic profile 24 can also be provided with cavities, not shown in the cross section, filled with insulating foam.
Bei einer nicht gezeichneten Abwandlung des Querschnitts der Fig. 2 entfällt das Aluminiumprofil 19, und das äußere Aluminiumprofil 21 ist so bemessen, dass seine Schenkel jeweils außen an den Scheiben 17 bzw. 18 anliegen. In diesem Fall kann der Türgriff nicht verschraubt sein; eine Verklebung an der äußeren Scheibe 18 ist jedoch ohne weiteres möglich.If the cross section of FIG. 2 is not shown, the aluminum profile 19 is omitted, and the outer aluminum profile 21 is dimensioned such that its legs rest on the disks 17 and 18 on the outside. In this case, the door handle cannot be screwed down; however, gluing to the outer pane 18 is readily possible.
Es liegt auf der Hand, dass insbesondere wenn sich die Isolierglasscheibe 14 über die gesamte Fläche der Gehäusetür 13 erstreckt, die zwei Profile 19, 21 auch ohne Schwierigkeiten durch Holzprofile ersetzt werden können, die in ihrer äußeren Gestaltung in der für Einbaugeräte üblichen Weise an die Gestaltung von dem Einbaugerät benachbarter Möbelfronten angepasst sind. Da diese Profile die Isolierglasscheibe 14 nur in einem Randbereich überdecken, ist ihr Gewicht deutlich geringer als das eines geschlossenen Möbeltürblattes gleicher Größe. Aus diesem Grund und auch, weil an der Innenseite der Gehäusetür 13 erfindungsgemäß keine Kühlgutträger vorgesehen sind deren Beladung das Gewicht der Tür erhöhen könnte, können diese Holzprofile ohne Schwierigkeiten von der Türaufhängung des Kältegeräts getragen werden und bedürfen keiner eigenen Aufhängungen. So können diese Holzprofile eine rahmenförmige Möbeltür bilden. It is obvious that, in particular if the insulating glass pane 14 extends over the entire area of the housing door 13, the two profiles 19, 21 can also be replaced without difficulty by wooden profiles which, in terms of their external design, conform to the usual manner for built-in appliances Design of the built-in device of adjacent furniture fronts are adapted. Since these profiles cover the insulating glass pane 14 only in an edge region, their weight is significantly less than that of a closed furniture door leaf of the same size. For this reason and also because according to the invention no refrigerated goods carriers are provided on the inside of the housing door 13, the loading thereof could increase the weight of the door, these wooden profiles can easily be carried by the door suspension of the refrigerator and do not require any separate suspensions. So these wooden profiles can form a frame-shaped furniture door.
