Definitions

  • the doors of refrigeration devices conventionally have a multilayer structure with an outer wall and an inner wall, which enclose a heat-insulating layer between them.
  • the entire surface is freely visible, whereas in built-in units it is covered by a furniture panel added by the manufacturer of the kitchen furniture in which the unit is installed.
  • the furniture panel behind which the refrigerator is located is not from other closed panels from the outside, e.g. to form ordinary cabinet doors.
  • a built-in refrigerator would be readily recognizable as such if it were provided with an uncovered door that is customary for floor-standing units, but such a door would seriously impair the overall aesthetic impression of a kitchen unit in which it is installed, especially if it were for the furniture fronts high-quality materials such as real wood are used, which are incompatible with the conventional white painted sheet metal fronts of free-standing appliances.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a door for a refrigeration device which allows the refrigeration device to be installed in a kitchen unit without disturbing its overall aesthetic impression and thereby making the refrigeration device recognizable as such.
  • a control and / or display panel for the refrigerator can advantageously be placed on the part of the door that remains free; However, for the device to be recognizable, it is sufficient that the part that remains free, regardless of its design, is present.
  • this handle can be chosen by the manufacturer of the refrigeration device in an aesthetically compatible manner with handles used on other types of kitchen appliances such as stoves or dishwashers from its manufacture. Since the remaining part only has to make up a small part of the total area of the door, it can be made from high-quality materials such as aluminum or stainless steel without significant additional costs.
  • a simple and reliable fixation of the decorative panel is possible by creating an undercut on an edge of the remaining part facing the decorative panel, which undercut can accommodate a spring of the decorative panel.
  • an inconspicuous connection between a plate forming the remaining part of the door and a plate forming the covered part can also be produced in a simple manner, so that the plate forming the covered part, which is not visible on the fully installed device, is made a material selected purely from an economic-technical point of view, which does not have to meet any external appearance requirements.
  • a region of the decorative panel facing away from the spring is preferably fastened in a concealed manner to the covered part. Apart from the one part that remains free, no other parts of the door need to remain visible when the decorative panel is installed. That Deviations in the appearance between the door according to the invention with the mounted decorative panel and neighboring furniture doors are restricted to the one part that is not subject to change.
  • the covered part is preferably set back in comparison to the part of the outer wall that remains free, so that the front of the decorative panel, when it is mounted on the covered part, is flush with the part that remains free or projects only slightly above it.
  • the heat-insulating layer also projects further behind the part that remains free than behind the covered part, a recess can be created on the inner wall of the door behind the part that remains free, which enlarges the interior of the associated refrigeration device without impairing the insulation capacity.
  • the invention also relates to a refrigerator with a door of the type defined above.
  • An embodiment of the invention is described below with reference to the accompanying figures. Show it:
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of a refrigerator with a door according to the invention.
  • Fig. 2 is a not to scale horizontal section through the door of the
  • Fig. 1 shows a refrigerator with a door according to the invention in a perspective front view.
  • the dimensions of the door 1 are slightly larger than those of the front of a body 2 behind it, so that when the device is installed, the door 1 completely covers not only the front of the body 2 but also a furniture niche in which the device is mounted.
  • the door 1 can be struck on the body 2 or on the installation niche of the device forming furniture parts.
  • the front of the door 1 is composed of two sections which adjoin one another along a vertical edge 3.
  • a section is a non-binding z. B. trained as a visible part 4 of an outer wall of the door, the other section is provided with a decorative plate 5 covered part 11, the decorative plate 5 is subsequently mounted over the covered part 11 of the outer wall of the door 1.
  • the decorative plate 5 is retrofitted to the body of the door 1. This allows the door 1 to be manufactured uniformly for a large number of application environments and to be subsequently adapted to furniture in which the refrigerator is to be installed.
  • the remaining part 4 which forms the side of the door 1 facing away from the stop, has a handle 6 and a display field 7 for displaying operating parameters of the refrigerator, such as the interior temperature, possible faults, etc.
  • Control elements for example for setting a target temperature for the interior, for switching on a rapid freezing mode in the case of a freezer, etc., can also be provided here.
  • a brand or type designation of the manufacturer can also be accommodated on the non-binding part 4.
  • Fig. 2 shows a schematic section of the structure of the door 1 with the decorative panel 5 mounted thereon.
  • the door is constructed from an outer wall 8, one set back to the body 2 relative to the remaining part 4 and forms one with a facing inner wall 9 and one between the outer wall 8 and inner wall 9 enclosed, thermally insulating foam layer 10.
  • the outer wall 8 is assembled from two components, of which one, a sheet of stainless steel or aluminum, forms the free part 4, and the other, which is, for example, a painted steel sheet or a rigid plastic plate can act, forms a part 11 covered by the decorative plate 5.
  • the transition of the material pairing is generated by the edge 3, which is designed as a folded edge.
  • the sheet forming the part 4 which remains free is angled at right angles on one side in order to form a side flank 12 of the door.
  • the free edge of this side flank 12 is connected to the inner wall 9 in a foam-tight manner.
  • An opposite edge is bent back in order to form a flap at the level of the edge 3, in which an edge strip 13 of the covered part 11 engages and in which it is held firmly by clamping, gluing, spot welding or another suitable technique.
  • the edge strip 13 is adjoined by a section 14 running approximately perpendicular to the front front into the interior of the door and to this, parallel to the front front of the door, the flat main part 15 of the covered part 11.
  • the connection between the free part 4 and the covered part 11 forms an undercut or groove 16 along the edge 3.
  • This undercut 16 receives a tongue 17 of the decorative plate 5 and thus fixes its edge facing the free part 4.
  • hidden holding means are attached between its rear side and the covered part 11 of the outer wall 8, which, together with the undercut 16, completely fix the decorative plate 5.
  • the decorative panel 5 can be made of the same material as the doors of neighboring furniture elements and, for reasons of economic production, also has the same material thickness as such a furniture door. It is conceivable to choose the width of the covered part 11 to match the grid widths of mass-produced furniture doors so that such standard doors can be used essentially unchanged as a decorative panel 5. Ie if it is assumed that the furniture doors are manufactured as standard in widths of 40, 50 and 60 cm, with an assumed width of the refrigerator door 1 of 60 cm, a width of 40 or 50 cm could be selected for the covered part 11.
  • a recess 18 is provided on the inner wall 9 in the area behind the part 4 that remains free, which reduces the thickness of the foam layer there to approximately the same extent as behind the covered part 11.
  • This recess 18 enlarges the available interior of the refrigerator and, if a bottle storage box is mounted on the inner wall 9, for example, can be used advantageously to accommodate 18 oversized bottles in the area of the recess, which are difficult in conventional storage boxes of constant width are to be accommodated.
