Definitions
- the present invention relates to a refrigerator with a body and a door hinged to the body, which together delimit an interior that can be illuminated by at least one lamp.
- such a lamp is attached to an inner side wall of the body.
- the illumination of the interior that can be achieved with such a luminaire is often unsatisfactory, because refrigerated goods located in the vicinity of the luminaire tend to shade large areas of the interior, so that visibility is poor there. Since refrigerated goods placed near the door are also to be illuminated, it can hardly be avoided that the luminaire also radiates in the direction of the door, which can blind a user.
- Refrigeration devices are known in which such interior lighting is not housed in the interior itself, but on the underside of an operating panel which forms the upper front end of the housing, and this underside, when the door is closed, is opposite an upper flank of the door. With such a lamp, however, it is difficult to satisfactorily illuminate the upper rear area of the interior.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a refrigeration device which ensures uniform illumination of the interior with a minimum of shadows which impair the visibility of objects in the interior and as far as possible freedom from glare.
- the object is achieved by a refrigeration device with the features of claim 1.
- the attachment of the at least one lamp to the door of the refrigeration device results in the interior opening being opened through the open front, largely parallel to the line of sight of a user.
- the extensive parallelism eliminates the risk of glare for the user; moreover, the shadows of objects illuminated by the lamp in the interior are essentially behind these objects, also in relation to the viewing direction of the user, and therefore essentially only obscure objects that are largely concealed by those in front of them anyway.
- By coupling the light distribution generated by the luminaire to the pivoting movement of the door such good illumination can be achieved largely independently of the opening angle of the door.
- By appropriately arranging the lamp on the door and by specifically designing the radiation characteristic and / or a reflector it is also possible to align the interior of the cooling device over the entire interior height.
- the coupling between the pivoting movement of the door and the associated change in the light distribution of the lamp is preferably mechanical.
- the change in the light distribution associated with the pivoting of the door preferably includes a rotation of a direction of the most intense radiation by the lamp in a direction opposite to the pivoting movement of the door, so that when the door is pivoted through a given angle, the direction of the most intense radiation relates to the The body of the refrigerator does not turn or at most by a smaller angle than the swivel angle of the door.
- the coupling can also result in the light distribution of the lamp having a width which decreases with an increasing opening angle of the door, i.e. that the light distribution is more concentrated the further the door is opened. This takes into account the fact that when the door is opened, the luminaire generally also moves away from the interior to be illuminated.
- the change in the light distribution in relation to the door can be implemented, for example, with the aid of a reflector of the lamp, which is movable relative to the light source of the lamp and coupled to the pivoting movement of the door.
- a light-refractive element can also be provided, which is coupled to the swiveling movement of the Door is movable in relation to the light source.
- the light source as a whole can also be arranged pivotably on the inner surface of the door.
- the light should protrude over an inner surface of the door at least when the door is open.
- Figure 1 is a schematic horizontal section through the front region of a refrigerator according to the invention with the door fully or partially open.
- Figure 2 is a schematic section through a first embodiment of a lamp mounted on the door of the refrigerator.
- FIG. 3 shows an example of a coupling mechanism for driving a rotation of the lamp coupled to the opening and closing of the door
- FIG. 4 shows a second example of a coupling mechanism in a section analogous to FIG. 3;
- Fig. 5 shows a second example of a refrigerator in a horizontal section analogous to that of Fig. 1;
- FIG. 6 shows a schematic section through a further embodiment of a lamp
- Fig. 8 shows a section through a third embodiment of a refrigerator according to the invention.
- Fig. 1 shows in a horizontal section the front area of the body 1 of a refrigerator and a door 3 connected to it via a hinge 2 in a half-open and a fully open position.
- a lamp 4 is arranged in the center, the radiation characteristic of which, with a main emission direction M, shown as a club-shaped curve 5, is pivotable in relation to the door 3, coupled to its rotation in the hinge 2, so that it can orientate itself in space Open and close the door 3 maintains.
- a main emission direction M shown as a club-shaped curve 5
- the main emission direction M of the lamp 4 is directed independently of the opening angle of the door 3 at approximately the same angle of incidence with respect to the opening plane of the interior of the refrigerator in the interior.
- FIG. 1 An example of the structure of the lamp 4 is shown in a horizontal section parallel to the section plane of FIG. 1 in FIG. 2.
- a tubular light source 7, e.g. a compact fluorescent tube is housed centrally in a chamber 8 which extends vertically on the inside of the door 3.
- the walls of the chamber are formed on the one hand by a cylindrical segment-shaped recess 9 in the door 3 and on the other hand by a transparent hood 10 made of glass or plastic.
- a cylindrical segment-shaped reflector 11 is rotatably arranged.
- the rotation of the reflector 11 is driven by a mechanism shown schematically in FIG. 3, which is accommodated in a flat cavity at the upper and lower ends of the door 3, respectively.
- the hinge 2 is formed in a manner known per se by a metallic fitting part 12 with a plate 13 screwed to the body 1, a horizontal arm 14 and a bearing pin 15 projecting from the arm 14.
- this bearing journal 15 is pressed into a sleeve 16 in a form-fitting and non-positive manner, which cooperates as a friction wheel with a second friction wheel 18 which is made in one piece with a pulley 17.
- the belt pulley 17 couples via a belt 19 to a second belt pulley 20, which in turn is connected in one piece to a friction wheel 21, which is arranged to rotate coaxially with the light source 7
- Wheel 22 drives which carries the reflector 11.
- the reflector 11 rotates each time the door 3 in the hinge 2 rotates to the angle of rotation of the Door opposite the same angle, so that the direction of the maximum luminous flux, designated M in FIG. 1, does not change in the beam characteristic of the lamp 4 in relation to the body 1 of the refrigerator.
- the light source 7 can be arranged slightly outside the pivot center of the reflector 11, so that with increasing opening angle of the door 3 - and with increasing distance between the light source 7 and the interior 6 to be illuminated - the concentration of the light by the reflector 11 becomes stronger.
- friction wheels of the coupling mechanism of FIG. 3 can also be replaced by gear wheels.
- Fig. 4 shows a second embodiment of a coupling mechanism.
- the elements 17 to 21 from FIG. 3 are set by a toothed rack 23 which is guided in the cavity of the door 3 in a direction guided by a double arrow P and meshes with teeth of the sleeve 16 and the wheel 22.
- the effect of the coupling mechanism is the same as that of the mechanism of FIG. 3.
- Fig. 1 shows the door 3 once, shown with solid lines, in a fully open position, pivoted by 90 ° relative to the (not shown) closed position, and once, with dashed lines, in a half-open position.
- Directions of the beam characteristic 5, in which the light flux has dropped to a certain percentage, for example 50%, of the maximum light flux, are denoted by S in the figure.
- S Directions of the beam characteristic 5, in which the light flux has dropped to a certain percentage, for example 50%, of the maximum light flux
- Fig. 6 shows a second embodiment of a lamp for the refrigerator according to the invention.
- a vertically arranged tubular light source 7 is provided, which is placed in front of a semi-cylindrical recess 9 on the inside of the door 3.
- the inner surface of the recess can be mirrored to form a reflector, but this reflector is not movable.
- the light source 7 is covered by a transparent screen 24, which is slidably held in rails parallel to the door 3 and is driven by wheels 25 coupled to the sleeve 16. These wheels 25 translate each pivoting movement of the door into a displacement of the screen 24 parallel to the inside of the door.
- the screen 24 is composed of a multiplicity of vertically oriented prisms which are shaped in such a way that their deflecting effect on light rays emitted by the light source (shown as dashed lines in FIG. 6) increases with increasing displacement of the screen 24 to the left. That is, the further the door 3 is opened, the further the screen 24 has to be shifted to the left so that the interior 6 of the refrigerator is correctly and uniformly illuminated at all times.
- the relationship between the rotation of the door and a rotation of the main radiation direction M of the lamp depends not only on a transmission ratio of a mechanism coupling the wheels 25 to the sleeve 16, but also on the orientations of the entry surfaces of the individual prisms, which in principle are arbitrary.
- Fig. 7 shows a third embodiment of a lamp in a section analogous to that of Figs. 2 and 6.
- the light here has a plurality of white light-emitting diodes 26 as light sources, each of which emits a bundled light beam, as indicated by dashed lines in the figure.
- the light-emitting diodes 26 can be arranged one above the other in a plurality of vertical rows, only one light-emitting diode 26 being visible from each row in the figure.
- a screen 24 Arranged in front of the light-emitting diodes 26, as in the light from FIG. 6, is a screen 24 which can be moved parallel to the inside of the door 3 and is driven by wheels 25 coupled to the sleeve 16.
- a cylindrical lens segment 27 is formed in the screen 24 in front of each row of light-emitting diodes 26.
- a lateral freedom of movement of the screen 24 of no more than the width of a cylindrical lens segment 27 is sufficient to pivot the main radiation direction M of the lamp 4 as far as a function of the movement of the door 3 so that optimal illumination of the interior 6 is always guaranteed ,
- the luminaire 4 is formed by a plate-like carrier 28 which is equipped with a large number of discrete light-emitting diodes or with one or more large-area OLEDs.
- This carrier 28 is on one of its
- the support 28 protruding from the inside of the door 3 enables good illumination of the edge region of the interior 6 adjacent to the hinge 2, particularly when the door 3 is open at right angles.
