Abstract

Disclosed is a refrigerator that is provided with supports for chilled products, which can be extracted on telescopic rail arrangements. A telescopic rail arrangement comprises two rails (6, 7) which, from a cross-sectional perspective, encompass a bottom (9) and two webs (10, 11) that protrude from the bottom and delimit a channel (12). The two rails (6, 7) support an engaging element (13) that can be moved in a longitudinal direction within the channel (12) of the other rail (7, 6). The rails (6, 7) also support a buffer member (15) which is located at one end thereof and faces one of the webs (10) of the other rail (7, 6).

Description

Teleskopschienenanordnung und damit ausgestattetes Kältegerät Telescopic rail arrangement and refrigeration device equipped with it
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Teleskopschienenanordnung mit zwei Schienen, die im Querschnitt einen Boden und zwei von dem Boden abstehende, einen Kanal begrenzende Stege aufweisen und ein im Kanal der jeweils anderen Schiene längsbewegliches Eingreifelement tragen.The present invention relates to a telescopic rail arrangement with two rails, which have a base in cross section and two webs projecting from the base and delimiting a channel and carry an engaging element which is longitudinally movable in the channel of the other rail.
Derartige Teleskopschienen werden vielfach eingesetzt, um Gegenstände wie etwa Schubladen leicht beweglich und geradlinig verschiebbar zu führen. Die Schienen derartiger Anordnungen sind meist aus einem kräftigen Blech gebogene Profile. Es ist schwierig, den Querschnitt dieser Profile so auf Millimeterbruchteile genau zu formen, dass das Eingreifelement weitgehend spielfrei darin geführt ist. Eine spielhaltige Führung bewirkt jedoch, dass eine ungewollte Schwenkbeweglichkeit der Schienen relativ zueinander um so weiter zunimmt, je weiter diese auseinandergezogen werden. Als weiter spielbegünstigend kommt hinzu, wenn die Schubladen mit den Teleskopschienen nicht fest anhand einer Schraubverbindung sondern leicht lösbar mit diesen verbunden sind. Dadurch wird auch die Halterung eines von den Teleskopschienen getragenen Gegenstandes in Bezug auf einen Rahmen, an dem die Teleskopschienen gehalten sind, um so unsicherer je weiter die Schienen auseinandergezogen sind, was derartige Teleskopschienenanordnungen bislang für einige Anordnungen unattraktiv gemacht hat. So wäre es z.B. an sich wünschenswert, Kühlgutträger in Kühlschränken ausziehbar zu machen, um so eine leichte Erreichbarkeit auch von Gegenständen zu gewährleisten, die in einem vollen Kühlschrank nahe an der Rückwand abgestellt sind. Will man einen solchen Kühlgutträger herausziehbar gestalten, so ist eine exakte Führung erforderlich, um eine ruckfreie Bewegung gewährleisten zu können, bei der keine auf den Träger abgestellten Träger umfallen. Teleskopschienen mit der hierfür erforderlichen Präzision zu fertigen, ist kostspielig.Such telescopic rails are widely used to guide objects such as drawers easily movable and straight. The rails of such arrangements are usually made of strong sheet metal profiles. It is difficult to shape the cross-section of these profiles to a fraction of a millimeter in such a way that the engaging element is guided in it largely without play. However, a guide containing play causes the undesired pivoting movement of the rails relative to one another to increase the further they are pulled apart. Another advantage is that the drawers are not fixed to the telescopic rails with a screw connection, but are easily detachably connected to them. As a result, the mounting of an object carried by the telescopic rails with respect to a frame on which the telescopic rails are held, the more unsafe the further apart the rails are, which has made such telescopic rail arrangements unattractive for some arrangements. So it would be e.g. desirable in itself to make refrigerated goods rack extendable in refrigerators, so as to ensure easy accessibility even of objects which are stored in a full refrigerator close to the rear wall. If you want to design such a refrigerated goods rack so that it can be pulled out, exact guidance is necessary in order to be able to ensure a smooth movement in which no cradles placed on the rack fall over. It is expensive to manufacture telescopic slides with the required precision.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist, eine Teleskopschienenanordnung, die preiswert herstellbar ist und trotzdem eine exakte Führung gewährleistet, und ein mit einer solchenThe object of the present invention is a telescopic rail arrangement which is inexpensive to produce and nevertheless ensures exact guidance, and one with one
Teleskopschienenanordnung ausgestattetes Kältegerät zu schaffen. Die Aufgabe wird gelöst durch eine Teleskopschienenanordnung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 bzw. ein Kältegerät mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 8.To provide telescopic rail assembly equipped refrigerator. The task is solved by a telescopic rail arrangement with the features of claim 1 or a refrigerator with the features of claim 8.
Indem wenigstens eine, besser noch beide Schienen mit einem Pufferkörper versehen werden, der einem der Stege der anderen Schiene zugewandt ist, kann die horizontale Schwenkbewegungsfreiheit der Schienen im weit ausgezogenen Zustand sehr wirksam eingeschränkt werden, ohne dass dies zu einer spürbaren Steigerung der Kosten der Teleskopschienenanordnung führt und ohne dass sich deren Laufwiderstand merklich erhöht.By providing at least one, better still both rails with a buffer body, which faces one of the webs of the other rail, the horizontal pivoting freedom of movement of the rails can be very effectively restricted in the extended state, without this leading to a noticeable increase in the costs of the telescopic rail arrangement leads and without their running resistance noticeably increased.
Die Wirksamkeit eines solchen Pufferkörpers ist am größten, wenn er jeweils am gleichen Ende der Schiene wie deren Eingreifelement befestigt ist. Während die Schienen üblicherweise aus Metall bestehen, ist der Pufferkörper vorzugsweise aus einem Kunststoff geformt.The effectiveness of such a buffer body is greatest when it is attached to the same end of the rail as its engaging element. While the rails usually consist of metal, the buffer body is preferably formed from a plastic.
Vorzugsweise hat der Pufferkörper einen dem Steg der jeweils anderen Schiene zugewandten Kopf zum Begrenzen der Schwenkbewegungsfreiheit der letzteren und einen in einer Bohrung der einen Schiene befestigten Stiel. Im einfachsten Falle ist der Stiel so weit in die Bohrung eingepresst, dass der Kopf die Umgebung der Bohrung unmittelbar berührt; es könnte jedoch auch eine individuell justierbare Teleskopschienenanordnung geschaffen werden, indem als Pufferkörper eine Kunststoffschraube verwendet wird, die in ein Innengewinde der Bohrung eingeschraubt ist.The buffer body preferably has a head facing the web of the other rail in order to limit the freedom of pivoting movement of the latter and a stem fastened in a bore of the one rail. In the simplest case, the handle is pressed so far into the hole that the head touches the area around the hole directly; however, an individually adjustable telescopic rail arrangement could also be created by using a plastic screw as the buffer body, which is screwed into an internal thread of the bore.
Das Eingreifelement ist vorzugsweise eine Rolle.The engaging element is preferably a roller.
Wenigstens einer der Stege hat vorzugsweise eine dem Boden gegenüberliegende Krempe, die dazu dient, das Eingreifelement der jeweils anderen Schiene zu hintergreifen und die Schienen so daran zu hindern, sich voneinander zu lösen.At least one of the webs preferably has a brim opposite the bottom, which is used to engage behind the engaging element of the respective other rail and thus to prevent the rails from coming apart.

Fig. 1 zeigt eine perspektivische Ansicht von Teilen eines Innenbehälters 1 eines Kältegeräts, das mit Teleskopschienenanordnungen gemäß der Erfindung ausgestattet ist. An den Seiten des Innenbehälters 1 sind jeweils paarweise in unterschiedlichen Höhen vordere bzw. hintere Befestigungselemente 2, 3 angebracht, die jeweils zu zweit eine Teleskopschienenanordnung 4 tragen. Die Teleskopschienenanordnungen 4 dienen zur Halterung von herausziehbaren Kühlgutträgern 5, wie in Fig. 2 gezeigt.Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of parts of an inner container 1 of a refrigerator, which is equipped with telescopic rail arrangements according to the invention. On the sides of the inner container 1, front and rear fastening elements 2, 3 are attached in pairs at different heights, each carrying a telescopic rail arrangement 4 in pairs. The telescopic rail arrangements 4 serve to hold pull-out refrigerated goods carriers 5, as shown in FIG. 2.
Fig. 3 zeigt eine erfindungsgemäße Teleskopschienenanordnung in perspektivischer Ansicht, im auseinandergezogenen Zustand. Die Anordnung umfasst zwei Schienen 6, 7 wobei die mit Rasthaken 8 versehene Schiene 6 vorgesehen ist, um in die Befestigungselemente 2 bzw. 3 eingreifend am Innenbehälter 1 fest montiert zu werden, und die bewegliche Schiene 7 eine Auflage für einen Kühlgutträger bildet. Ein am hinteren Ende der beweglichen Schiene 7 aufragender Finger 17 dient zur Verrastung des Kühlgutträgers.3 shows a telescopic rail arrangement according to the invention in a perspective view, in the exploded state. The arrangement comprises two rails 6, 7, the rail 6 provided with latching hooks 8 being provided so that it engages with the fastening elements 2 and 3 on the inner container 1, and the movable rail 7 forms a support for a refrigerated goods carrier. One at the back The end of the movable rail 7 of upstanding fingers 17 is used to lock the refrigerated goods carrier.
Beide Schienen 6, 7 sind aus einem starken Blechprofil hergestellt, dessen Querschnitt bei beiden Schienen der gleiche ist. Dieses Profil umfasst jeweils einen in Einbaulage der Schienen 6, 7 vertikalen Boden 9 und zwei rechtwinklig von dem Boden 9 abstehende Stege 10, 11. Boden 9 und Stege 10, 11 begrenzen jeweils auf drei Seiten einen Führungskanal 12, in den jeweils eine an der anderen Schiene drehbar befestigte Rolle 13 als Führungselement eingreift. Der Steg 10 jeder Schiene greift ebenfalls in den Führungskanal 12 der jeweils anderen Schiene ein. Der Steg 11 ist jeweils durch eine einwärts gerichtete Krempe 14 verlängert, der die Rolle 13 der jeweils anderen Schiene hintergreift und so die Querbeweglichkeit der Rolle im Führungskanal begrenzt und ein Auseinanderfallen der Teleskopschienenanordnung verhindert. Das Zusammenfügen der zwei Schienen geschieht, indem sie in Längsrichtung ineinandergeschoben werden und anschließend ein elastischer Kunststoffpuffer 15 am vorderen Ende der beweglichen Schiene 7 eingerastet wird.Both rails 6, 7 are made of a strong sheet metal profile, the cross section of which is the same for both rails. This profile in each case comprises a vertical floor 9 in the installed position of the rails 6, 7 and two webs 10, 11 projecting at right angles from the floor 9. Floor 9 and webs 10, 11 each delimit a guide channel 12 on three sides, in each of which one on the another rail rotatably mounted roller 13 engages as a guide element. The web 10 of each rail also engages in the guide channel 12 of the other rail. The web 11 is in each case extended by an inwardly directed brim 14 which engages behind the roller 13 of the other rail and thus limits the transverse mobility of the roller in the guide channel and prevents the telescopic rail arrangement from falling apart. The two rails are joined together by being pushed into one another in the longitudinal direction and then an elastic plastic buffer 15 is snapped into place at the front end of the movable rail 7.
Fig. 4 zeigt einen leicht schematisierten horizontalen Längsschnitt durch die Schienen 6, 7 in einem voneinander getrennten Zustand. Beide Schienen tragen jeweils eine Rolle 13 an einem Ende, wobei der Steg 10 jeweils in Höhe der Rolle 13 unterbrochen ist, so dass die Rolle 13 vertikal über den Rand des Bodens 9 hinausreichen und auf dem Steg 11 der jeweils anderen Schiene zwischen Boden 9 und Krempe 14 geführt abrollen kann. Dabei muss der Steg 11 geringfügig breiter sein als die Rolle 13, damit diese nicht zwischen Boden 9 und Krempe 14 stecken bleibt, allerdings beeinträchtigt jegliches seitliche Spiel der Rolle 13 die seitliche Stabilität der Führung.Fig. 4 shows a slightly schematic horizontal longitudinal section through the rails 6, 7 in a separate state. Both rails each carry a roller 13 at one end, the web 10 being interrupted at the height of the roller 13, so that the roller 13 extends vertically beyond the edge of the base 9 and on the web 11 of the respective other rail between the base 9 and Brim 14 can roll out. The web 11 must be slightly wider than the roller 13 so that it does not get stuck between the bottom 9 and the brim 14, but any lateral play of the roller 13 affects the lateral stability of the guide.
Zwischen der Rolle 13 und dem der Rolle benachbarten Ende jeder Schiene 6, 7 ist in eine Bohrung 16 des Bodens 9 ein Puffer 15 aus einem geschmeidigen, gegen Reibverschleiß wenig empfindlichen Kunststoffmaterial wie etwa Polyester oder Polytetrafluorethylen eingefügt. Wie insbesondere in der perspektivischen Ansicht der Schiene 6 in Fig. 3 zu erkennen, liegt die Bohrung 16 näher am Steg 11 als die Achse der an der gleichen Schiene montierten Rolle 13, so dass für die Unterbringung des Puffers 15 nur ein geringer Überstand der Schiene 6 bzw. 7 über die Rolle 13 hinaus erforderlich ist. Der Puffer 15 hat eine Gestalt ähnlich der einer kurzen Schraube mit einem in den Führungskanal 12 hineinragenden Kopf und einem in der Bohrung 16 gehaltenen Stiel. Der Stiel kann eine einfache Zylinderform haben und in der Bohrung 16 durch Pressung gehalten sein; es ist aber auch denkbar, die Bohrung 16 mit einem Innengewinde zu versehen und als Puffer 15 eine Schraube aus Kunststoff zu verwenden.Between the roller 13 and the end of each rail 6, 7 adjacent to the roller, a buffer 15 made of a supple plastic material, such as polyester or polytetrafluoroethylene, is inserted into a bore 16 in the base 9. As can be seen in particular in the perspective view of the rail 6 in FIG. 3, the bore 16 lies closer to the web 11 than the axis of the roller 13 mounted on the same rail, so that only a small protrusion of the rail for accommodating the buffer 15 6 or 7 over the roller 13 is required. The buffer 15 has a shape similar to that of a short screw with a head projecting into the guide channel 12 and a stem held in the bore 16. The stem can have a simple cylindrical shape and can be held in the bore 16 by pressing; but it is also conceivable to provide the bore 16 with an internal thread and to use a plastic screw as a buffer 15.
Fig. 5 zeigt die zwei Schienen 6, 7 in einem Schnitt analog dem der Fig. 4, allerdings in zusammengefügten Zustand. Die Rolle 13 jeder Schiene 6, 7 greift mit einem gewissen seitlichen Spiel zwischen den Boden 9 und die Krempe 14 der jeweils anderen Schiene 7 bzw. 6 ein, wobei dieser Sachverhalt nur für die Rolle 13 der Schiene 7 zu sehen ist, da der Steg 11 der Schiene 7 in der Darstellung weggeschnitten ist. Der Puffer 15 jeder Schiene 6, 7 liegt dem Steg 10 der jeweils anderen Schiene 7, 6 gegenüber, wobei das Spiel zwischen Puffer und Steg kleiner als das der Rolle 13 ist und im Extremfall auch Null sein kann.FIG. 5 shows the two rails 6, 7 in a section analogous to that of FIG. 4, but in the assembled state. The roller 13 of each rail 6, 7 engages with a certain lateral play between the bottom 9 and the brim 14 of the other rail 7 or 6, this fact being seen only for the roller 13 of the rail 7, since the web 11 of the rail 7 is cut away in the illustration. The buffer 15 of each rail 6, 7 lies opposite the web 10 of the respective other rail 7, 6, the play between the buffer and the web being smaller than that of the roller 13 and, in extreme cases, also being zero.
Fig. 6 zeigt die gleichen zwei Schienen in einem nahezu maximal ausgezogenen Zustand. Der maximal ausgezogene Zustand entspräche einer Berührung der zwei Rollen 13. In dieser ausgezogenen Stellung hat die Teleskopschienenanordnung eine größere Schwenkbewegungsfreiheit in der horizontalen Ebene (um eine auf der Ebene der Figur senkrechte Achse) als im eingefahrenen Zustand der Fig. 5, da der Abstand zwischen den die Schwenkbewegungsfreiheit begrenzenden Puffern 15 bzw. Rollen 13 gering ist.Fig. 6 shows the same two rails in an almost maximum extended state. The maximum extended state would correspond to a contact of the two rollers 13. In this extended position, the telescopic rail arrangement has a greater freedom of pivoting movement in the horizontal plane (about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the figure) than in the retracted state of FIG. 5, since the distance between the buffers 15 or rollers 13 which limit the freedom of pivoting movement are low.
Fig. 7 veranschaulicht die Grenzen der Schwenkbewegungsfreiheit bei einer Drehung der Schiene 7 im Uhrzeigersinn. Der Verlauf des Bodens 9 der Schiene 7, der der in Fig. 6 gezeigten parallelen Orientierung der Schienen zueinander entspricht, ist in Fig. 7 als strichpunktierte Linie dargestellt. Aus dieser Orientierung heraus ist die Schiene 7 geringfügig auslenkbar, bis ihre Rolle 13 an die Innenseite der Krempe 14 der Schiene 6 stößt und ihr Steg 10 gegen den Puffer 15 der Schiene 6 stößt. Würde der Puffer 15 fehlen, so wäre die Grenze der Schwenkbewegungsfreiheit erst erreicht, wenn die Rolle 13 der Schiene 7 gegen die Krempe 14 der Schiene 6 und gleichzeitig die Rolle 13 der Schiene 6 gegen den Boden 9 der Schiene 7 stößt. Dies entspräche der in Fig. 7 als punktierter Umriss 7' dargestellten Stellung der Schiene 7. Wie man sieht, erreicht der erfindungsgemäße Teleskopschienenmechanismus mit minimalem Kostenaufwand eine deutlich verbesserte Präzision der Führung. Fig. 7 illustrates the limits of the freedom of pivoting movement when the rail 7 is rotated clockwise. The course of the bottom 9 of the rail 7, which corresponds to the parallel orientation of the rails to one another shown in FIG. 6, is shown in FIG. 7 as a dash-dotted line. From this orientation, the rail 7 can be deflected slightly until its roller 13 abuts the inside of the brim 14 of the rail 6 and its web 10 abuts the buffer 15 of the rail 6. If the buffer 15 were missing, the limit of the freedom of pivoting movement would only be reached when the roller 13 of the rail 7 hits the brim 14 of the rail 6 and at the same time the roller 13 of the rail 6 hits the bottom 9 of the rail 7. This would correspond to the position of the rail 7 shown in FIG. 7 as a dotted outline 7 '. As can be seen, the telescopic rail mechanism according to the invention with a significantly lower cost a significantly improved precision of the guide.
