Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Kühlschrank mit einem oder mehreren Tablaren, gemäss dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The invention relates to a refrigerator with one or more trays, according to the preamble of claim 1.

Bei Kühlschränken werden in der Regel ein oder mehrere Tablare aus Glas oder Kunststoff verwendet, die in seitliche Rippen in Seitenwänden des Kühlschrankes einschiebbar sind oder mittels besonderer Tragteile gehalten werden, wie beispielsweise aus der CH-A-687 891 bekannt. Die Tragteile werden in dafür vorgesehene Sacklöcher in Seitenwänden des Kühlschrankes eingesteckt. Es stehen zwar jeweils mehrere übereinander angeordnete Rippen oder Sacklöcher zum Anordnen des Tablars oder der Tablare zur Auswahl, der Höhenabstand der Tablare (oder der Abstand des einzigen Tablars vom Boden) kann jedoch nur in begrenztem Masse geändert werden. Für höhere Behälter oder beispielsweise für bereits geöffnete Flaschen gibt es oft ausser in der Tür kein Platz, es sei denn, dass eines der Tablare (oder das einzige Tablar) ganz herausgenommen wird. Dieses Tablar muss dann aber irgendwo geschützt aufbewahrt werden und bei Bedarf wieder zur Verfügung stehen, was gerade in kleineren Küchen zu Problemen führen kann.In refrigerators usually one or more trays made of glass or plastic are used, which are inserted into side ribs in side walls of the refrigerator or held by special support members, such as from CH-A-687 891 known. The support parts are inserted into designated blind holes in side walls of the refrigerator. Although there are in each case a plurality of superimposed ribs or blind holes for arranging the tray or the trays to choose from, the height spacing of the trays (or the distance of the single tray from the floor) can only be changed to a limited extent. For higher containers or, for example, for already opened bottles, there is often no room except in the door, unless one of the trays (or the only tray) is taken out completely. This tray must then be stored somewhere protected and available again when needed, which can lead to problems especially in smaller kitchens.

Die gattungsbildende JP 59 217486 A offenbart ein als Rollladentablar ausgebildetes Tablar, das eine Anzahl von miteinander gelenkig verbundenen und in den Seitenwänden des Kühlschrankes zugeordneten Führungsnuten geführten Lamellen aufweist. Die Führungsnuten sind in je einer seitlichen Führungsleiste angefertigt Das Tablar kann nach hinten geschoben und in einem vor der Kühlschrankrückwand befindlichen, im wesentlichen U-förmigen Teil der Führungsnuten umgebogen werden, so dass ca. die eine Hälfte unter die andere Hälfte geschoben werden kann. Somit wird die Gesamtfläche des Tablars im wesentlichen halbiert. Das halbierte Tablar lässt sich nach oben, zur Kühlschrankrückwand verschwenken, was jedoch einen entsprechenden Raum im Kühlschrank beansprucht.The generic JP 59 217486 A discloses a trained as a roller shutter tray tray, which has a number of mutually hingedly connected and guided in the side walls of the refrigerator guide grooves slats. The guide grooves are each made in a lateral guide strip The tray can be pushed back and bent in a located in front of the refrigerator rear wall, substantially U-shaped part of the guide so that about one half can be pushed under the other half. Thus, the total area of the tray is substantially halved. The halved tray can be pivoted upwards, to the refrigerator rear wall, but this claimed a corresponding space in the refrigerator.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Kühlschrank zu schaffen, bei dem die Platzverhältnisse im Innenraum den momentanen Bedürfnissen rasch angepasst werden können, ohne dass einzelne Tablare herausgenommen und separat aufbewahrt werden müssen.The present invention has for its object to provide a refrigerator in which the space in the interior of the current needs can be quickly adjusted without individual trays must be removed and stored separately.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäss durch einen Kühlschrank mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by a refrigerator with the features of claim 1.

Beim erfindungsgemässen Kühlschrank kann das Rollladentablar in Richtung zur Kühlschrankrückwand in einem spiralförmigen, unmittelbar vor der Kühlschrankrückwand befindlichen Teil der Führungsnuten platzsparend zusammengerollt werden. Die Führungsnuten sind in je einer seitlichen Führungsleiste angefertigt, wobei die beiden Führungsleisten einen Teil einer Halterung bilden, die mindestens eine die beiden Führungsleisten miteinander verbindende und vor der Kühlschrankrückwand positionierbare Querleiste aufweist. Die Halterung kann samt dem Rollladentablar in einer gewünschten Höhe im Kühlschrank positioniert werden, gleich wie gewöhnliche Tablare aus Glas oder Kunststoff. Somit wird eine frei wählbare, optimale Ausnützung des Kühlschrankinnenraumes ermöglicht, die rasch an die momentane Bedürfnisse angepasst werden kann. Um zusätzlichen Platz für grössere Behälter wie z.B. Flaschen zu schaffen, kann eine Tablarfläche verkleinert werden, oder es kann auf eine Tablarfläche ganz verzichtet werden, ohne dass dabei ein Tablar herausgenommen und separat aufbewahrt werden muss.In the refrigerator according to the invention, the roller shutter tray can be rolled up in a space-saving manner in the direction of the refrigerator rear wall in a helical part of the guide grooves located directly in front of the refrigerator rear wall. The guide grooves are each made in a lateral guide strip, wherein the two guide strips form part of a holder which has at least one cross bar which connects the two guide strips and can be positioned in front of the refrigerator rear wall. The holder can be positioned together with the roller shutter tray at a desired height in the refrigerator, just like ordinary glass or plastic trays. Thus, a freely selectable, optimal utilization of the refrigerator interior is made possible, which can be adapted quickly to the current needs. To provide additional space for larger containers such as e.g. To create bottles, a shelf space can be reduced, or it can be completely dispensed with a tray surface, without taking a tray must be removed and stored separately.

Um die Grösse der Tablarfläche zu bestimmen, ist in einer besonders bevorzugten Weise im geraden Teil der Führungsnuten eine Anzahl von voneinander beabstandeten Vertiefungen vorgesehen, in welche eine vordere Lamelle des Rollladentablars mit ihren Rastnocken eingerastet werden kann.In order to determine the size of the tray surface, in a particularly preferred manner in the straight part of the guide grooves, a number of mutually spaced recesses are provided, in which a front lamella of the roller shutter tray can be locked with its locking cam.

Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand der Zeichnung näher erläutert.The invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the drawing.

In Fig.1 ist ein Kühlschrank 1 dargestellt, in dessen Innenraum 2 zwei Tablare übereinander angeordnet sind, die erfindungsgemäss als eine Art Rollladentablare 10 ausgebildet sind, die sich zur Kühlschrankrückwand 3 zusammenrollen lassen. Während gemäss Fig. 1 die volle Ablagefläche des unteren Tablars genutzt wird, ist das obere Tablar zusammenrollt, so dass auf das untere Tablar auch relativ hohe Behälter wie z.B. Flaschen gestellt werden können. Selbstverständlich könnte der Kühlschrank auch mit mehreren derartigen Tablaren ausgestattet sein, oder aber - bei kleineren Ausführungen - nur ein solches Tablar aufweisen. Es könnten auch konventionelle Tablare mit einem oder mehreren erfindungsgemässen, zusammenrollbaren Tablaren kombiniert werden.In Fig.1 a refrigerator 1 is shown, in the interior 2 two trays are arranged one above the other, which are formed according to the invention as a kind of roller shutter trays 10, which can be rolled up to the refrigerator rear wall 3. While according to Fig. 1 the full shelf of the lower shelf is used, the upper shelf is rolled up, so that on the lower tray and relatively high containers such as bottles can be placed. Of course, the refrigerator could also be equipped with several such trays, or - in smaller versions - have only such a tray. It could also be combined conventional trays with one or more inventive, rollable trays.

Das jeweilige Rollladentablar 10 ist durch eine Anzahl von miteinander gelenkig verbundenen Lamellen 11 gebildet und in einer Halterung 12 gehalten, die zwei den Seitenwänden 4 des Kühlschrankes 1 zugeordnete Führungsleisten 13, von denen in Fig. 1 nur eine ersichtlich ist, sowie mindestens eine die Führungsleisten 13 verbindende Querleiste 14 aufweist. Die Halterung 12 kann in einer gewünschten Höhe im Kühlschrank 1 positioniert werden, was beispielsweise in der aus der CH-A-687 891 bekannten Weise erfolgen kann (Einschieben in Schlitze 15 im hinteren Eckbereich, Eingreifen in Sacklöcher 16 in den Seitenwänden 4). Dabei kommt die Querleiste oder die Querleisten 14 an der Kühlschrankrückwand 3 zur Anlage.The respective roller shutter tray 10 is formed by a number of mutually hingedly connected slats 11 and held in a holder 12, the two associated with the side walls 4 of the refrigerator 1 Guide rails 13, of which in Fig. 1 only one can be seen, as well as at least one of the guide rails 13 connecting cross bar 14 has. The holder 12 can be positioned at a desired height in the refrigerator 1, which, for example, in the from CH-A-687 891 known manner (insertion into slots 15 in the rear corner, engaging in blind holes 16 in the side walls 4). In this case, the cross bar or the transverse strips 14 on the refrigerator rear wall 3 comes to rest.

Das Rollladentablar 10 bzw. die miteinander gelenkig verbundenen Lamellen 11 können in die Halterung 12 eingelegt, in dieser verstellt und beispielsweise zwecks Reinigung wieder herausgenommen werden, wie nun im folgenden näher beschrieben wird.The roller shutter tray 10 and the slats 11 which are connected to one another in an articulated manner can be inserted into the holder 12, adjusted therein and, for example, removed again for the purpose of cleaning, as will now be described in more detail.

Fig. 2 zeigt die bereits erwähnte Halterung 12 für das Rollladentablar 10, die die Führungsleisten 13 sowie die Querleisten 14a, 14c aufweist (wie aus Fig. 4 ersichtlich, sind beim dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel insgesamt drei Winkelprofile als Querleisten 14a, 14b, 14c vorhanden). Auf der Aussenseite der Führungsleisten 13 sind Elemente 15', 16' zum Anbringen der Halterung 12 im Kühlschrankinnern vorgesehen, z. B. zum Einschieben in die Eckbereich-Schlitze 15 und zum Befestigen in den Seitenwänden 4, wobei auch eine andere Befestigungsart durchaus möglich wäre. Fig. 2 shows the already mentioned holder 12 for the roller shutter tray 10, which has the guide rails 13 and the transverse strips 14a, 14c (as shown in FIG Fig. 4 can be seen in the illustrated embodiment, a total of three angle profiles as cross bars 14a, 14b, 14c available). On the outside of the guide rails 13 elements 15 ', 16' are provided for attaching the holder 12 in the refrigerator interior, z. B. for insertion into the corner region slots 15 and for fixing in the side walls 4, wherein a different fastening would be quite possible.

Die seitlichen Führungsleisten 13 sind mit Führungsnuten 20 für die Lamellen 11 versehen. Jede Führungsnut 20 weist einen geraden Teil 20a sowie einen hinteren spiralförmigen Teil 20b auf.The lateral guide rails 13 are provided with guide grooves 20 for the slats 11. Each guide groove 20 has a straight part 20a and a rear spiral part 20b.

Die Führungsnuten 20 bzw. ihre Teile 20a, 20b sind jeweils durch eine untere Wand 22a, 22b und eine obere Wand 23a, 23b begrenzt (vgl. auch Fig. 4). Die miteinander gelenkig verbundenen Lamellen 11 werden mit einem Spiel 24 in den Führungsnuten 20 geführt (vgl. Fig. 4 und 5).The guide grooves 20 and their parts 20a, 20b are each bounded by a bottom wall 22a, 22b and an upper wall 23a, 23b (cf. Fig. 4 ). The mutually hingedly connected slats 11 are guided with a play 24 in the guide grooves 20 (see. 4 and 5 ).

Die untere Wand 22a des geraden Teils 20a ist mit einer Anzahl von voneinander beabstandeten Vertiefungen 25 versehen, die zum Einrasten der vordersten Lamelle 11' (vgl. Fig. 3, 5 und 6) vorgesehen sind, um eine bestimmte Verstellung des Rollladentablars 10 zu fixieren und somit auch die Grösse der zu benützenden Tablarfläche festzulegen. Die vorderste Lamelle 11' ist zu diesem Zweck im Gegensatz zu den übrigen Lammelen 11 mit einem Rastnocken 26 versehen (Fig. 5 und 6).The lower wall 22a of the straight portion 20a is provided with a number of spaced recesses 25 which are adapted to engage the foremost blade 11 '(see FIG. Fig. 3 . 5 and 6 ) are provided to fix a certain adjustment of the roller shutter tray 10 and thus also determine the size of the tray surface to be used. The foremost blade 11 'is provided for this purpose, in contrast to the other Lammelen 11 with a locking cam 26 ( FIGS. 5 and 6 ).

Zur gelenkigen Verbindung der benachbarten Lamellen 11 ist an jeder Lamelle 11 bzw. 11' ein im Querschnitt runder, zapfenförmiger Vorsprung 30 vorgesehen, der sich in Längsrichtung der Lamelle 11 bzw. 11' erstreckt, und der in eine entsprechende Ausnehmung 31 (vgl. insbesondere Fig. 7) in der benachbarten Lamelle 11 einrastbar ist. Bei der vordersten Lamelle 11' entfällt diese Ausnehmung. Dank dieser gelenkigen Verbindung kann das Rollladentablar 10 seitlich in den spiralförmigen Teil 20b der beidseitig vorhandenen Führungsnuten 20 eingeleitet und zusammengerollt werden, wie in Fig. 4 angedeutet. Anstelle eines einzigen Vorsprungs 30 könnte die Lamelle 11 bzw. 11' auch mehrere koaxiale, über die Lamellenlänge verteilte Vorsprünge aufweisen.For the articulated connection of the adjacent lamellae 11, a round-shaped, pin-shaped projection 30 is provided on each lamella 11 or 11 ', which extends in the longitudinal direction of the lamella 11 or 11', and which engages in a corresponding recess 31 (cf. Fig. 7 ) can be latched in the adjacent blade 11. In the frontmost slat 11 'eliminates this recess. Thanks to this articulated connection, the roller shutter tray 10 can be introduced and rolled laterally into the helical part 20b of the guide grooves 20 provided on both sides, as in FIG Fig. 4 indicated. Instead of a single projection 30, the lamella 11 or 11 'could also have a plurality of coaxial projections distributed over the lamella length.

Die Querleisten bzw. die Winkelprofile 14a, 14b, 14c bilden gemäss Fig. 4 einerseits eine der Kühlschrankrückwand 3 zugeordnete Rückwand sowie von dieser vorstehende Rippen 14a', 14b', 14c', die das sich zusammenrollende Rollladentablar 10 von der Kühlschrankrückwand 3 trennen. Die oberste Rippe 14a' deckt dabei einen Spalt zwischen dem sich nach unten zusammenrollenden Teil des Rollladentablar 10 und der Kühlschrankrückwand 3 ab, so dass hinten keine Gegenstände oder Produkte vom Tablar nach unten gelangen können. Das oberste Winkelprofil 14a bildet zudem eine nach oben gerichtete, hintere Anschlagfläche 32 für die auf dem Tablar befindlichen Produkte, die die Kühlschrankrückwand 3 nicht berühren sollen.The transverse strips or the angle profiles 14a, 14b, 14c form according to Fig. 4 on the one hand, a rear wall associated with the refrigerator rear wall 3, and the ribs 14a ', 14b', 14c 'projecting therefrom, which separate the rolling shutter tray 10 from the refrigerator rear wall 3. The uppermost rib 14a 'covers a gap between the downwardly rolling part of the roller shutter tray 10 and the refrigerator rear wall 3, so that no objects or products can get down from the tray. The uppermost angle profile 14a also forms an upwardly directed, rear abutment surface 32 for the products located on the tray, which should not touch the refrigerator rear wall 3.

Die Führungsleisten 13 weisen an ihren vorderen Enden im Bereich der jeweiligen oberen Wand 23a jeweils eine nach oben und nach vorne offene Ausnehmung 35 auf, wobei die obere Wand 23a jeweils mit einer schrägen Einführfläche 36 versehen ist. Das aus Lamellen 11 zusammengesetzte Rollladentablar 10 kann von oben unterhalb der Einführflächen 36 in die Führungsnuten 20 eingeführt werden, bis auch die vorderste Lamelle 11' auf der unteren Wand 22a aufliegt und mit ihren Nocken 26 in die gewünschten zwei gegenüberliegenden Vertiefungen 25 eingerastet wird. Will man das Rollladentablar 10 wieder herausnehmen, um es z.B. zu reinigen, so wird die vorderste Lamelle 11' durch Anheben (was dank dem Spalt 24 möglich ist) wieder ausgerastet und aus den Führungsnuten 20 herausgezogen. Zum Reinigen können die einzelnen Lamellen sogar voneinander getrennt werden und gereinigt wieder zusammengesteckt werden. Die untere Wand 22a der jeweiligen Führungsnut, die sich bis unterhalb der Ausnehmung 35 erstreckt, ist an ihrem vorderen Ende mit einem nach oben gerichteten Anschlag 38 versehen, der das in die Halterung 12 eingesetzte Rollladentablar 10 gegen unvorgesehenes Herausziehen sichert.The guide rails 13 have at their front ends in the region of the respective upper wall 23a each have an upwardly and forwardly open recess 35, wherein the upper wall 23a is provided in each case with an oblique insertion surface 36.

Der erfindungsgemässe Kühlschrank ermöglicht eine frei wählbare, optimale Ausnützung des Kühlschrankinnenraumes, die rasch an die momentane Bedürfnisse angepasst werden kann. Um zusätzlichen Platz für grössere Behälter wie z.B. Flaschen zu schaffen, kann eine Tablarfläche verkleinert werden, oder es kann auf eine Tablarfläche ganz verzichtet werden, ohne dass dabei ein Tablar herausgenommen und separat aufbewahrt werden muss.The inventive refrigerator allows a freely selectable, optimal utilization of the refrigerator interior, which can be adapted quickly to the current needs. To provide additional space for larger containers such as e.g. To create bottles, a shelf space can be reduced, or it can be completely dispensed with a tray surface, without taking a tray must be removed and stored separately.
