Definitions
- the invention relates to a refrigerator according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the display and controls are integrated in a panel above the door.
- the corresponding electrical components are housed in a housing.
- This housing is closed with a front panel and inserted through an opening in the outer shell of the refrigerator in a space above the interior of the refrigerator.
- the front panel is then fastened together with the housing to the outer shell.
- the necessary insulating layer is foamed around the interior of the refrigerator only when all components are mounted. In this way, spaces for the components to be mounted need not be subsequently created in the solidified foam.
- the insulating foam completely encloses the housing.
- the housing is therefore insulated as well as the interior of the refrigerator. As a result, a build-up of heat can form in the housing, through which the electrical components contained can be damaged in the long term.
- the invention has for its object a refrigeration device in such a way that the waste heat of the electrical components can be dissipated in the housing to the outside.
- the insulation between the interior of the refrigerator and the housing should not be neglected.
- the object is achieved according to the invention by a refrigeration device with the features of claim 1.
- the housing rests with its upper side against the inside of the cover part of the outer shell. Since the waste heat accumulates in the upper part of the housing, the highest temperature and thus the highest temperature gradient to the outer shell arise at the top of the housing. Good heat transfer to the outer shell can thus be ensured.
- the lid part is made of metal. Since metal is an excellent conductor of heat, this measure further optimizes heat dissipation.
- the breakthrough is provided in a front part of the outer shell, which is connected to the lid part.
- the position of the housing in the assembled state is thus fixed, without any displacement of the front and cover part take place and can lead to a change in the position of the housing directly under the cover part. This position is therefore only dependent on the exact positioning of the opening in the front part.
- the front part is made in one piece with the lid part and is therefore also made of metal.
- the resulting waste heat can thus be derived via the front part.
- the front panel is mounted after foaming the gap and the associated fixation of the housing.
- This front panel with which the opening of the housing is closed, rests on the outside of the front part. Heat that is transferred to the front panel can be transmitted to the front part as well as from there to the surrounding area. Holes are provided in the housing so that the front Aperture can be bolted through the opening with the housing. In this way, no additional holes in the outer shell for performing screws necessary.
- the electrical components and / or switches and / or displays are mounted on the front panel.
- the front panel In this way, not all waste heat must be removed upwards over the lid part. Contact with the front panel also transfers some of the heat directly to the front panel. As already explained above, the waste heat from there can also be dissipated well.
- the front panel When mounting the front panel, only the lines in the housing need to be connected via connectors before the front panel is placed.
- Heat energy from the walls of the housing can also be transferred directly to the front part via the ring flange without the detour via the front panel.
- the contact between the ring flange and the front part is particularly intense because the insulating foam presses the housing firmly against the front part. In this way, a good heat transfer is guaranteed here.
- inwardly facing tabs are present at the edge of the opening in the outer shell.
- corresponding openings are provided, so that the housing can be pushed onto the tabs and secured against slipping.
- the housing must remain fixed in its position. After foaming the gap and curing the foam, the housing is pressed from the back against the outer shell and from below against the cover part and thus can neither be solved by the tabs, nor can a tilting moment act on the housing, which the contact between Ring flange and front part could affect. In this way, an absolutely secure attachment of the housing in the intermediate space without additional fastening means such as screws, etc. is achieved. Further details and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the subclaims in connection with the description of an embodiment which is explained in detail with reference to the drawing.
- Fig. 1 is an exploded view of the device according to the invention.
- Fig. 2 is a bottom view into the space before foaming.
- a module of the outer shell of a refrigerator which consists of the front part 1 and the cover 2 of the outer shell.
- the front part 1 of the opening 3 is provided.
- the insertion tabs 14 At the lateral edges of the opening 3 are the insertion tabs 14, to which the housing 15 can be pushed.
- the module 1, 2 of the outer shell is made in one piece from metal.
- the opening 3 is punched out, taking into account the tabs 14. Thereafter, the edge between the front part 1 and the cover 2 is generated and the insertion tabs 14 can be bent backwards.
- the electronics module 6 contains the electronic control for the refrigeration device and display LEDs.
- the electronic module 6 is mounted on the front panel 4.
- the switches 12 and 13 are mounted in the front panel.
- the insert 5 is used with the label for the displays and switches and fixed, for example via a bond.
- the light guides 11 are provided which form the optical connection between the electronic module 6 and the insert 5.
- the housing 15 (FIG. 2) is provided on its open side with the annular bottle 19, with which it rests flat against the front part 1 as soon as it is plugged onto the plug-in tabs 14 is. In this mounted state, the housing 15 rests with its upper side against the cover 2 of the outer shell.
- the shaft 16 through which the supply lines are led out of the housing 15.
- This shaft 16 forms the only connection between the housing 15 and the gap between the inner shell and the outer shell of the refrigerator, which is filled after installation with insulating foam.
- the fitting 17, which consists of compressible material is prevented that penetrates through the shaft 16 foam into the housing 15.
- the fitting 17 With the slot 20, the fitting 17 can be pushed over the leads and then inserted into the shaft 16.
- the slot 20 in the middle of the fitting 17 may be expanded to a hole.
- the molding 17 is made of a very elastic foam, which expands after insertion into the shaft 16 and adapts well to the inner walls of the shaft 16. Likewise, the supply lines are tightly enclosed. Penetration of foam can be safely prevented.
- the housing 15 is usually first pushed onto the insertion lugs 14 of the outer shell module 1, 2. Thereafter, the module 1, 2 is placed on the refrigerator and connected to the side walls of the outer shell. In the now closed space, which is formed by the inner and outer shell of the refrigerator, now the insulating foam is injected. This spreads with high pressure in the intermediate space and presses the housing 15 with its annular flange 19 firmly against the inside of the front part 1 and with its upper side against the cover part 2. The housing 15 fixes the foam in the position in which it is held by the tabs 14 and the cover part 2.
- the insert 5 is now glued for the label. Furthermore, the front panel 4 is equipped with the switches 12 and 13, the optical fibers 1 1 and the electronic module 6. The already existing in the housing 15 leads are connected via plugs to the electronic module 6 and the switches 12 and 13. With the screws 8, the front panel 4 is attached directly to the housing 15. This has screw holes 18 for this purpose. These screw holes 18 are in the region of the opening 3, so that no additional holes have to be provided in the front part 1.
- the holes 7 for passing the screws 8 in the front panel 4 are provided with a countersink, so that the screw heads are flush with the surface of the front panel 4. For design reasons, the screws 8 can be additionally covered with decorative caps 9.
- the waste heat generated in the housing can consequently be released to the environment via various routes:
