Definitions

  • the present invention relates to domestic refrigeration appliances and more specifically to domestic refrigeration appliances fitted in a kitchen.
  • Refrigerator-freezers are those comprising a refrigerator compartment and a freezer compartment. Usually, the refrigerator compartment is disposed in the upper part and the freezer is disposed in the lower part. So-called built-in refrigerator-freezers are those which are fitted into the kitchen unit as another module, unlike free-standing refrigerator-freezers, which are installed in a unit that is independent to the rest of the kitchen.
  • ES 2 113 592 T3 describes a refrigerator that is housed in a niche that has lateral bracket plates upon which said refrigerator is supported.
  • the domestic electrical appliance of the invention comprises a refrigerator with two compartments suitable for being fitted into a kitchen unit, and also comprises a base upon which said refrigerator is supported.
  • Said base comprises a housing for the condensation means of the refrigerator.
  • said base is height adjustable so that the refrigerator can be disposed at the height corresponding to the kitchen unit in which it is fitted, depending on the height of the baseboard of said kitchen unit.
  • the useful volume of the refrigerator is increased significantly, as the kitchen unit does not need to comprise any niche in which to house the refrigerator nor any type of structure upon which to support said refrigerator, full use therefore being made of the space that would be occupied by the niche.
  • the structure of the compartments of the refrigerator of the domestic electrical appliance of the invention may be the same as the structure of the compartments of a free-standing refrigerator.
  • the fact that the compartments used may be the same both for free-standing refrigerators and built-in refrigerators means that costs can be reduced considerably with regard to moulds, equipment, etc.
  • the built-in domestic electrical appliance 1 of the invention comprises a refrigerator 2 with two compartments, which in this embodiment is a refrigerator-freezer, and also comprises a base 3 upon which said refrigerator-freezer 2 is supported. Said base 3 is height adjustable so that the refrigerator-freezer 2 can be disposed at the height required for the kitchen unit it is to be fitted into.
  • the domestic electrical appliance comprises two front feet 5a and 5b, and a rear foot 5c, not shown in figure 1 , all of them height adjustable.
  • the refrigerator-freezer 2 of this embodiment comprises a refrigerator compartment in the upper part and a freezer compartment in the lower part with its respective doors 13 and 14, although it is possible for the refrigerator compartment to be in the lower part and the freezer compartment in the upper part.
  • the domestic electrical appliance 1 of the invention In order to fit the domestic electrical appliance 1 of the invention into a kitchen unit, it is not necessary for said kitchen unit to have a niche in which can be housed said domestic electrical appliance 1, it being sufficient, rather, as shown in figure 2 , that there is a space 10 between the adjoining units 11 and 12 between which the domestic electrical appliance 1 is to be fitted.
  • the domestic electrical appliance 1 With reference to figure 3 , the domestic electrical appliance 1 is housed in said space 10 and a baseboard 15 is added to it.
  • respective decorative panels 16 and 17 are added to the doors 13 and 14 of the refrigerator-freezer 2, resulting in the kitchen unit of said figure 4 .
  • the base 3 comprises a housing 4 for the condensation means 6 of the refrigerator-freezer 2.
  • the condensation means 6 By removing the condensation means 6 from the rear part of the refrigerator-freezer 2 and disposing them in said housing 4, the compartments of said refrigerator-freezer 2 are provided with greater depth. This, together with the fact that the niche is dispensed with, considerably increases the useful volume of the compartments of the refrigerator-freezer 2 in comparison to the compartments of the built-in refrigerator-freezers of the prior art.
  • compartments of the refrigerator-freezer 2 may be greater, in this embodiment said compartments have a structure that corresponds with the structure of the compartments of a free-standing refrigerator-freezer.
  • the same compartments may be used and, therefore, the same interior elements in the compartments, both in free-standing refrigerators and in built-in ones, with the subsequent cost reduction in moulds, equipment, etc.
  • hinges are used by means of which, as well as causing the doors 13 and 14 and the corresponding decorative panels 16 and 17 to swing, also cause them to move frontally, thereby preventing said decorative panels 16 and 17 from banging against the adjoining unit 12 during opening.
  • the rear foot 5c of the base 3 is disposed, as shown in figure 6 , between the two front feet 5a and 5b.
  • the height of said rear foot 5c is adjusted from the front part of the base 3, thereby making the process of fitting and levelling the domestic electrical appliance 1 in the kitchen unit easier, as it is not necessary to move the domestic electrical appliance 1 from its space 10 in order to carry out said height adjustment.
  • a single rear foot 5c is included to make positioning of the domestic electrical appliance 1 easier.
  • the front feet 5a and 5b and the rear foot 5c comprise a respective threaded axis housed in respective threaded holes in the base 3, so that the height of the feet 5a, 5b and 5c can be adjusted by turning them.
  • the turning movement is transmitted to the rear foot 5c from the front part of the base 3 by means of a transmission shaft 9 disposed in a substantially horizontal manner.
  • Said rear foot 5c engages perpendicularly with the transmission shaft 9, thus transmitting the rotation of said transmission shaft 9 to the rear foot 5c.
  • the transmission shaft 9 comprises a trunco-conical cog wheel, not shown in the figures, which engages with another trunco-conical cog wheel connected to the rear foot 5c and which is not shown in the figures either, the rotation movement thus being transmitted by said cog wheels.
  • the transmission shaft 9 is disposed in the housing 4 of the base 3 and passes through the front face of said base 3.
  • Said transmission shaft 9 comprises on its end a control 18 that is operated by the fitter in order to adjust the height of the rear foot 5c.
  • Said control 18 has a transverse groove 19 that allows the control 18 to be operated, for example, by a key.
  • the domestic electrical appliance 1 comprises a fan 7 disposed opposite the condensation means 6 on the front part of the housing 4.
  • the condensation means 6 comprise two condensers 6a and 6b disposed in a zig-zag arrangement on top of each other, thereby doubling the heat exchange surface area.
  • the base 3 comprises in the upper part of its front face a part that projects frontally and which comprises a grille 8 connected to the housing 4 of said base 3 through which air from the exterior enters said housing 4.
  • the baseboard 15 is positioned opposite the base 3 and underneath the grille 8, leaving said grille 8 to stand free.
  • the decorative panel 17 of the lower door 14 ensures that the grille 18 is concealed.
