Definitions

  • the present invention refers to refrigerator appliances, in particular those intended for use in households, provided with at least two separate compartments provided on a side-by-side arrangement or on top of each other, and featuring respective doors, for food storage and preservation applications.
  • refrigerator compartment doors are aligned with each other and are applied on to the outer wall of the appliance by means of respective hinges of a traditional kind.
  • a refrigeration apparatus preferably a refrigerator for residential use, that is provided with at least two doors in a side-by-side arrangement, or arranged on top of each other, and provided, in the region between the two doors, with two hinges supported by a single plate fastened on to the front wall of the apparatus by means of at least a bolt passing through a respective slot-shaped hole of said plate, which is capable of being adjusted by being displaced for a pre-established maximum length, without any need for said at least a bolt to be loosened.
  • a refrigeration apparatus comprises two doors 1, 2 arranged on top of each other, between which there are mounted respective hinges (as represented by the respective pins 3 and 4) supported by a common fastening plate 5.
  • the above-mentioned plate is fastened on to the wall of the door by means of two bolts 6, 7, which are adapted to be inserted in two respective slot-shaped holes 8, 9 provided in said plate, and which therefore thread into and get fixed in the wall 10 of the refrigeration apparatus by engaging respective internally threaded bushes 30, 31 provided inside said wall 10.
  • a spacer 11 that is made of a readily deformable material; in order to enable the respective bolt to pass therethrough, respective holes 12, 13 are provided in said spacer.
  • the plate is capable of sliding relative to the bolts, which are firmly attached to the wall, while carrying the spacer with it; in doing so, the spacer, which is deformable, yields to conform to the shape of the bolts.
  • the plate can move with respect to the fastening bolts, thanks to the slot-shaped hole that allows for a relative shifting movement, and can also move with respect to the wall 10 owing to the interposition of said spacer 11, which is capable of conforming to the shape of the bolts, thereby keeping it substantially embedded and locked thanks to its deformability.
  • Such an improvement therefore allows for a more accurate adaptation of the form of said bushes to the strain, i.e. deformation imposed by the plate being so shifted into alignment.
  • the portions of the spacers 11 that surround said respective bushes 20, 21 are provided with relief provisions or through-apertures 27, 28 allowing for easier and quicker deformability and conformation of the bushes with respect to the plate.
