Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a refrigerator with a freezer compartment door or a freezer compartment door.
  • the freezer compartment In a refrigerator such as a refrigerator with integrated freezer compartment, the freezer compartment is generally separated from the rest of the interior by a hinged flap or door to provide heat insulation.
  • the flap or the door has a movable latching projection or latch which, in the closed state, engages in a retaining projection or the like on a side wall of the inner container and thus holds the flap or the door in the closed position.
  • This latching should be reliably possible despite possible dimensional tolerances of the inner container.
  • a known door that meets these requirements has a plate-like door body, a pivotable handle portion comprising a first leg extending at a front of the door body of the door and a second leg extending at the side edge of the body, and one in a gap between the lateral flank and the second leg accommodated, by a pivoting of the handle part compressible spring which carries the latching projection, wherein the latching projection by the pivoting of the handle part on the side edge to be displaced and thus from the recess of the inner container is detachable.
  • Pins molded onto the spring engage in openings in both the grip part and the base body and thus define the pivot axis of the grip part.
  • first and second projections transverse to the pivot axis oriented first and second projections, wherein the first projections each carry a pin and the second projections have an opening into which one of the pins engages the pivot axis defining.
  • the pins are thus no longer integral with the spring, but contiguous with either the handle portion or the door body of the flap or door, which may be made of stronger, less fatigued materials than the spring.
  • At least one of the wall surfaces in the direction of the axis is elastically deflectable.
  • the spring preferably has a hairpin-shaped cross section with legs connected to a vertex perpendicular to the pivot axis. These legs are pressed elastically against each other during pivoting of the handle part.
  • the pivot axis should run closer to the apex than at the ends of the legs remote from the apex.
  • the pivot axis extends between the legs of the spring.
  • the two legs of the handle portion connecting wall piece may be provided which extends through a slot at least one elongated in the direction of the pivot axis leg of the spring.
  • the spring For fastening the spring to the flap or the door, the spring preferably has at two spaced apart in the direction of the pivot axis ends in each case a projection which engages in an opening of the base body or the handle part.
  • the projections and openings are preferably placed so that the pivot axis extends through the openings.
  • the projections are advantageously connected elastically movable with a main part of the spring in the direction of the pivot axis.
  • An elastic connection of the projections to the main part can be provided in a simple manner by the leg of the spring is divided by a slot in said main part and an arm connected at one end to the main part and that one of the projections formed at the other end of the arm is.
  • Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of the freezer compartment door according to the invention, which serves for closing a freezer compartment, which is for example divided from the interior of a refrigerator.
  • the flap designed as a door in the present case comprises a substantially rectangular plate-shaped door body 1.
  • the door body 1 has horizontal upper and lower flanks, from each of which a cylindrical pin 2 projects in the vicinity of its right edge.
  • the recesses of a (not shown) body of the refrigerator engaging pin 2 set a vertical pivot axis of the flap firmly. It is understood, however, that the structure of the door described below can also be easily transferred to a flap with a horizontal pivot axis.
  • a niche 3 open towards the edge remote from the pins 2 is formed, which receives a first leg 4 of a handle part 5 hinged to the door body.
  • the niche 3 is deeper in its region facing away from the edge than the wall thickness of the leg 4, so that a user can engage in the niche 3 and the first leg 4 of the handle part 5 easily can grasp and prefer on its back.
  • a second leg 6 of the handle portion 5 extends perpendicular to the first leg 4, wherein it defines a gap 8 together with a lateral edge 7 of the base body.
  • the one-piece injection-molded handle part 5 is stiffened by a plurality of wall surfaces 9, 10, 11 formed as projections which connect the two legs 4, 6 and are oriented approximately perpendicular to this.
  • the uppermost or lowermost wall pieces 9 in the perspective of FIG. 3 each have a circular opening 12 which is provided to receive a pin 13 connected to the main body 1 and thus fix the pivot axis of the handle part 5.
  • these pins 13 are located respectively at the ends of two tongues 14 serving as projections which project from the lateral flank 7 of the main body 1.
  • at least one of these pins 13 may have a beveled end face 15 which allows the assembly of the handle portion 5 by sliding over one of the wall pieces 9 via this end face 15 with simultaneous elastic deflection of the tongues 14.
  • a spring 16 shown in section in FIG. 2 is accommodated in the intermediate space 8 between the lateral edge 7 of the base body 1 and the leg 6, a spring 16 shown in section in FIG. 2 is accommodated.
  • the spring 16 has a hairpin-like shape with a voltage applied to the edge 7 first leg 17 and a voltage applied to the leg 6 of the handle portion 5 second leg 18 which are connected to one another at a curved vertex 19.
  • the spring 16 drives the flank 7 and the second leg 6 of the handle part 5 apart, so that the first Leg immersed in the state of rest in the niche 3 and its outside is flush with the front of the body 1.
  • the axis of rotation 20 defined by the openings 12 and pins 13 extends between the legs 17, 18 in the vicinity of the apex 19.
  • a latching projection 21 is formed which extends away from the lateral flank 7 beyond the leg 6 of the handle part 5 also protrudes.
  • the latching projection 21 has a bevelled edge 22 which, when the flap is pressed into a frame, recedes towards the flank 7 and, as soon as it encounters a recess in the frame, is driven by the force of the spring 16 into the recess and so on the flap is locked. The retraction of the locking projection 21 is possible even if a user exerts the force to close the flap by pressing on the leg 4 of the handle part 5.
  • the handle part 5 pivots about the axis of rotation 20 in a position shown in Fig. 2 as a dashed outline, in which the spring 16 of the leg 6 against the edge 7 of the door body. 1 pressed and the locking projection 21 is pulled out of the recess. In this position, the flap can be opened.
  • the shape of the spring is shown in more detail in the perspective view of Fig. 4.
  • the two legs 17, 18 and the locking projection 21 respectively in the direction of the axis of rotation elongated, plate-shaped parts, wherein the leg 17 along the axis of rotation 20th is wider than the leg 18 and is divided by two slots 23 in a main part 24 and two arms 25 which are related to the main part 24 at the level of its end facing away from the apex 19 and at the height of the apex 19 parallel to the axis of rotation 20 Bear pin 26.
  • the elasticity of the material of the spring 16 and the presence of the slots 23 makes it possible to elastically move the pins 26 towards each other so as to lock them into openings 27 of the wall pieces 11.
  • Fig. 5 shows the spring 16 in the mounted on the handle part 5 state. The wall pieces 11 now extend through the slots 23.
  • the assembly of the handle part 5 on the base body 1 takes place only after attachment of the spring 16th
