Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cooling device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a cooling device is for example from the WO 03/062721 A1 known.
  • the invention particularly relates to refrigerators having connecting devices which provide the connection of different parts for the circulation of air to the tub.
  • Refrigerators basically consist of heat-insulating walls and - included in the listed walls - a trough for forming an inner hull and a door through which one passes from the outside into the cited tub.
  • the walls and the tub are produced in separate processes, the connection between which is realized by a polyurethane casting process, which also ensures thermal insulation.
  • a mold is placed in the tub so as to prevent polyurethane from escaping from the holes on the tub into the interior of the tub and to protect the inside of the tub. Meanwhile, polyurethane is sprayed between the metal sheet forming the outer wall and the tub forming the inner hull using a pistol.
  • the expanding polyurethane quickly expands between the outer walls and the tub, filling the space in between.
  • Polyurethane is a material that tends to escape from all possible openings during expansion. Therefore, in the tub, a complete mold closing the whole holes is used. For this reason, it is not possible during the filling of the tub - except the pan shape - to form an additional projection to connect parts to it, because the tub is damaged by it. Therefore, elements that remain under the polyurethane between the outer walls and the tub, but whose connection to the tub is necessary, attached during the polyurethane injection process with adhesive products such as an adhesive tape on the outside of the tub.
  • the publication WO 03/062721 A1 shows an inner wall for a refrigeration appliance housing comprising a vertical wall and a top wall which through a curved transition portion are connected to each other, an opening cut into the vertical wall and an air ducts inserted foam-tight in the opening.
  • the patent US 4,097,096 shows a refrigerator comprising a freezer compartment and a refrigerator. Through an inner wall of the cooling space, a grommet is formed, which leads a tube comprising an electrical conductor.
  • the publication DE 24 53 796 shows a refrigerated cabinet with a thermally insulated by rigid plastic foam housing, wherein channels are formed in a rear wall, in which Heilumlenkmaschine are.
  • the Utility Model DE 296 06 772 U1 shows a device for the electrical connection of refrigerator components.
  • the patent US 5,000,010 shows a refrigerator, wherein in a soil a spout is inserted for the passage of two tubes.
  • the publication DE 198 40 429 A1 shows a refrigeration device with a normal refrigeration compartment, wherein on an inner wall of the normal refrigeration compartment, a cutout for a lighting device is formed.
  • the patent US 3,177,271 shows a refrigerator with a refrigerating compartment, a freezer compartment and an evaporator compartment, wherein the compartments are interconnected by means of a pipe system.
  • the object of the invention is to prevent the elements fastened between the refrigerator pan and the outer walls from shifting according to the polyurethane injection method.
  • Another object is to attach the various elements to the tub with a special connection method and / or apparatus so as to withstand the compressive force of the polyurethane.
  • Another object of the invention is to attach another element to the outer surface of the tub without affecting the inside.
  • a cooling device in order to achieve the stated objectives, has been realized.
  • This refrigerator has in the chamber in which the products to be cooled are placed at a fixed distance a space forming and at least one surface of the outer surface of said chamber closing outer wall, located in said space and with one end to the opening on the chamber connected connecting element and an insulating layer which fills the space between the chamber and the outer wall and encloses the cited outer surface of the chamber.
  • the cooling device has a fastening extension, which is formed at the end of the said connecting element and on the other hand has contact with the inner surface of the chamber located next to the opening.
  • the connector is attached to the chamber prior to injection of the insulating layer and does not change its position to the gap during the injection process of the insulating layer.
  • the cooling device is characterized in that there is at least one widened portion on the opening, so that the mentioned fastening extension can be inserted through an opening.
  • the connecting element which at the portion, where it comes into contact with the opening, is wider to the opening an adjacent edge forming the expanded portion are drawn into the chamber. Through its passage into the narrower section, the wider part thus grants the attachment and touches the inner surface of the chamber.
  • the mentioned fastening extension has a flange formed at the bent end of the connecting element.
  • the attachment extension can protect its position against axial loads from different directions.
  • the indicated extended portion is at the end of the other narrower part of the opening.
  • the insertion axis of the mentioned opening is horizontal to the bottom surface. This is sufficient for the stability, so that the connecting member is connected to the fixing extension only from the lower and upper sides.
  • At least one support extension contacting the outer surface of the chamber is provided to support the said attachment extension against tensions towards the inside of the chamber on the said connecting element.
  • the specified cavity assumes a guiding task and ensures when inserting the connecting element into the opening corresponding to the chamber surface whose guiding in the desired direction.
  • the cited extended portion is actually in the form of an equilateral trapezoid. With such a shape, a linearly decreasing width is ensured on the opening, and the ease of assembly is ensured by the straight-line increasing friction of the open-fitting surfaces of the fastening extension.
  • the said extended portion is inclined towards the chamber wall.
  • On the chamber is at least one inclined to the chamber wall plane, the said extended section bearing surface.
  • the cited flange shape when attaching the connecting element to the opening, encloses the mentioned opening shape so as to close the opening completely.
  • the flange opening is completely closed and in situations such as polyurethane casting, the escape of material is prevented by itself.
  • the said connecting element has another end which is connected to a further opening on a further chamber, wherein the two chambers is a cooling chamber and a deep-freezing chamber, so that the connecting element can provide an air delivery between the chambers.
  • illustration 1 shows the representative front view of a refrigerator, which has the structure of the invention theme.
  • Figure 2a Figure 4 is a disassembled perspective view of the device with a representative structure of the invention.
  • Figure 2b is the assembled perspective view of the in Figure 2a shown device having a representative structure of the invention.
  • Figure 3 is the cut representation of the in Figure 2a shown device having a representative structure of the invention.
  • the invention is applied to a refrigerator with two chambers (3, 4) and accessories such as drawers and shelves (not shown in the figure), the upper chamber being used as the cooling chamber and the lower one as the freezing chamber.
  • the outer hull (1) is formed by the bending of a metal plate with the openings of the chambers (3, 4) remaining open and the polyurethane material injected therebetween and forming the insulating layer (2) enclosing the chambers (3, 4) from the outer surface, that a corresponding to the insulating layer (2) wide gap remains.
  • a connecting element (5) is inserted between the chambers (3, 4) ensuring air transport.
  • the connecting element (5) is a hollow rectangular plastic bridge whose two ends are directed and open in the same direction and whose interior forms a channel (51).
  • openings of the connecting element (5) has a bottom and a top befindlich connected to the chambers (3, 4).
  • cold air is conveyed from the lower chamber (4) to the upper chamber (5) by means of a ventilator and air-conveying ducts (not shown in the figure) to the lower chamber (3) from the connecting element (5) to ensure the circulation.
  • Figure 2a shows the opening (31), which ensures the transition of the connecting element (5) to the chamber (3) and is formed by an incision of the lateral wall.
  • the opening (31) is located on the lower side on the right wall near the opening of the chamber (3), the longer portion is in a horizontal position.
  • the opening (31) consists of a rectangle whose shorter side is at the same time the upper side of the trapezium and forms the narrow portion (311), the trapezoid forming the extended portion (312).
  • the propagation angle (a) formed by the trapezoidal shape on the side of the rectangle provides an enlargement with respect to the narrower portion (311).
  • the longer side of the trapezium forms the wide edge of the opening (31).
  • the intermediate wall (33) of the opening (31) forms with the wall thickness of the chamber (3) has a bearing surface for the connecting element (5).
  • the opening (31) has a gripping surface (32), that of the wall of the chamber (3) - the shorter edge of the opening (31) - something, for example 10 mm, wider than the shorter side the square surface of the opening (31) is formed by the countersinking of the outer hull (1) and abuts against the gap wall (33).
  • the connecting element 5 has a quadrangular fastening projection 54 directed into the chamber 3, which is produced by bending the upper and lower edges towards the gripping surface 32.
  • These fastening projections (54) are formed along the two long, directed into the chamber (3), mutual edges at which the simultaneously opening to the channel (51) suction openings (52) are located.
  • the total width of the opening is larger than the width of the narrow portion (311) - but smaller than the widest part of the extended portion (312). Thereby, the user can insert the attachment projection (54) from one end into the portion larger than the total width of the extended portion (312) and push along the running direction of the connection member (A).
  • the fastening projections (54) are slipped from the contact surface (541) on the gripping surface (32) inside the chamber (3).
  • the contact surface is shaped obliquely.
  • the extended portion (312) is closer to the outer wall than the narrower portion (311). As a result, there is no load on the gripping surface (32) which could lead to bending.
