Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a housing for a refrigeration device.
  • Such housings are generally constructed of a body and a hinged to the body door, which together define an interior space for the storage of refrigerated goods.
  • the door and body each have an outer and an inner wall, which are interconnected at their edges and enclose a filled with a heat-insulating foam material gap.
  • the inner wall which is generally deep-drawn of plastic material, can be given a complex shape which allows internal fixtures such as shelves, door racks or the like to be attached thereto. It is also possible to create apertures in the inner wall to attach internals thereto.
  • a refrigeration device housing vacuum insulation technology by evacuating the gap between an inner and outer wall z. B. made of stainless steel or appropriately diffusion-proof plastic heat-insulating form.
  • a vacuum insulation is significantly more effective than a foam-air insulation, so that a vacuum-insulated refrigerator with the same external dimensions and the same power consumption as a foam-air-insulated device can have a larger interior than the latter.
  • the walls In order to maintain the vacuum throughout the life of the device, the walls must be diffusion tight, requiring the use of metallic materials for the walls.
  • To structure such an inner wall in the manner known from foam-air-insulated devices with plastic inner wall ago manner to hang internals is extremely complex. Breakthroughs on the wall surfaces of the interior lining would destroy the vacuum tightness. Therefore, the attachment of internal fittings required fasteners must be attached by spot welding, in which case the process parameters must be exactly right in order not to affect the tightness of the walls. See for example DE 199 31 170 A1 ,
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a vacuum-insulated refrigeration appliance housing which has the same flexibility with regard to the fitting of interior fittings as a conventional foam-insulated housing.
  • a housing having the features of claim 1. Since here the inner wall delimiting the inner space is not formed by a wall of the vacuum-insulated insulation body, but by a vorgeblende this wall, can at this the known, proven techniques for mounting the interior fixtures be used without jeopardizing the tightness of the insulating body. The only possibility the plastic inner lining by a non-cutting Being able to produce a molding process has the advantage of being able to mitanformen support strips or the like.
  • the combination of a housing produced from vacuum insulation technology and / or a door with a non-cutting inner lining refrigerators can be produced, which have a significantly improved thermal insulation capacity at the same time retained advantages of the low-cost attachment of internal installations with external dimensions according to the conventionally constructed devices.
  • the insulating body is separated from this inner wall at least locally by a gap.
  • the intermediate space between the inner wall and the insulating body is preferably foamed so that it contributes to the insulating effect of the housing.
  • the inner wall is readily provided with an opening, which can in particular serve to guide a cable through it or to anchor a holder for internal installations therein. So z. B. the leadership of the cable up to the place of the breakthrough in a simple manner between the vacuum-insulated housing and / or such a door and to the interior upstream upstream inner lining done.
  • the body of the refrigerator is preferably constructed of a plurality of plate-shaped insulating bodies and a one-piece, all insulating body of the body separating from the interior interior wall. Likewise, it is possible to form the body of the refrigerator in one piece from an inner and a vacuum-tightly connected outer lining with intervening, serving to support this panel, evacuated heat insulation material.
  • FIG. 1 shown in a vertical section refrigerator housing is constructed in the present case of a plurality of plate-shaped vacuum insulation elements, each forming a ceiling 3, a rear wall 4, a bottom 5 and two unspecified side walls of a body 1.
  • Another plate-shaped Vacuum insulation element 6 is designed as a door 2.
  • the plate-shaped vacuum insulation body 3, 4, 5, 6 of the ceiling, the back, the floor and the door are shown in section in the figure.
  • the vacuum insulation body 3, 4, 5, 6 have a z. B produced by non-cutting shaping metallic outer wall and spaced inner wall and are provided in the interior with a support material, such as an open-cell foam, which allows evacuation of the insulating body and prevents its collapse under the external atmospheric pressure.
  • insulating foam gap 9 Between a one-piece deep-drawn plastic inner wall 7, which limits the interior 8 of the refrigerator, and the inner walls of the vacuum insulation body 3, 4, 5 is filled with insulating foam gap 9. In contrast to the support material, this may be a closed-cell foam, the pores of which contain a propellant used to expand the foam in the space.
  • the inner wall 7 is provided with a plurality of horizontal grooves 10 which are provided to receive lateral edges of shelves (not shown) and to support them. As a result of the adhesive foam acting in the interspace 9, the inner wall 7 is given the required rigidity and bearing capacity and, at the same time, the inner wall 7 is connected to the insulation bodies 3, 4 and 5.
  • Fig. 2 shows a partial section through a side wall of the body 1 at the level of such a groove 10. It can be seen that the bottom of the groove 10 in the present embodiment directly touches a vacuum insulation body 11 of this side wall. By supporting the inner wall 7 during the foaming process support core is prevented that the inner wall 7 is removed during foaming of the gap 9 of the insulating body 11 and thus reduces the volume of the inner space 8 undesirable. It is equally possible that the groove is backfoamed.
  • a cable 13 which may serve for example for the power supply for interior lighting, for connecting a temperature sensor or the like.
  • the door 2 has a similar construction as the body 1. Its outside is completely formed by the vacuum insulation body 6; to the edges 14 of the inside of a thermoformed plastic inner wall 15 is arranged, which is spaced in its central region of the insulating body 6 and a piece far into the open front of the inner wall 7 protrudes.
  • the intermediate space 16 formed between the vacuum insulation body 6 and the inner wall 15 is also foamed. Due to the adhesive effect of the foam, the inner wall 15 is dimensionally stable and connected to the insulating body 6.
  • the inner wall 15 has a large area facing the inner space 8 recess 17; to the recess 17 laterally surrounding flanks of the inner wall 15 shaped projections 18 serve in a known manner for supporting suspended from them door housings.
  • Fig. 3 shows a section similar to that of Fig. 2 through a side wall of a refrigerator according to a second embodiment of the invention.
  • a spacer 19 is first attached to the inside of the vacuum insulation body 11 prior to insertion of the inner wall 7, z. B. glued. The bond does not need to be permanent, since it is no longer needed in the finished refrigeration device.
  • the spacer 19 is waisted between a flange 20 in contact with the insulating body 11 and a flange 21 contacting the inner wall 7 in order to minimize the heat transfer through the spacer 19.
  • the flange 21 faces a hole 12 cut in the inner wall 7 and extends beyond the edges of the hole 12.
  • the flange 20 is located on the other side of the inner wall 7, a flange 22 of a support member 23 opposite.
  • a central pin 24 of the support member 23 is fixed in a central bore of the spacer 19, for. B. screwed or locked so that the flanges 21, 22 keep the inner wall 7 sandwiched between them. In this way, the hole 12 is sealed, and when the gap 9 between the vacuum insulation body 11 and the inner wall 7 is filled with foam, a passage of foam through the hole 12 in the interior 8 is excluded.
  • the support member 23 is loadable and may e.g. used to place a shelf on it to attach a telescopic rail for a pull-out shelf or drawer, or the like.
  • the design of the interior 8 can be completely adapted to the conventional, only foam-insulated refrigeration appliances, so that no difference between the inventive and a conventional refrigeration appliance can be seen for a user with the naked eye.
