Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Kühl- und/oder Gefriergerät, das wenigstens einen Kältemittelkreislauf aufweist, der zumindest einen Kompressor umfaßt, wobei des weiteren wenigstens eine Tauwasserschale zur Aufnahme und zur Verdunstung von Tauwasser vorgesehen ist.The present invention relates to a refrigerator and / or freezer having at least one refrigerant circuit comprising at least one compressor, wherein the further is provided at least one condensate bucket for receiving and for the evaporation of condensate.

Eine wichtige Anforderung an derartige Kühl- bzw. Gefriergeräte ist es, dass die Schallleistung des Gerätes einen bestimmten Grenzwert nicht überschreitet. Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Kühl- und/oder Gefriergerät der eingangs genannten Art dahingehend weiterzubilden, dass dieses eine besonders geringe Schallemission verursacht.An important requirement for such refrigerators or freezers is that the sound power of the device does not exceed a certain limit. The present invention is therefore the object of developing a refrigerator and / or freezer of the type mentioned in such a way that this causes a particularly low noise emission.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Kühl- und/oder Gefriergerät mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Danach ist vorgesehen, dass der Kompressor unmittelbar oder mittelbar auf der Tauwasserschale angeordnet ist und dass zwischen Kompressor und Tauwasserschale und/oder zwischen der Tauwasserschale und deren Auflage, beispielsweise dem Gehäuse, ein oder mehrere Schall- und/oder Schwingungsabsorptionselemente angeordnet sind. Auf diese Weise kann der Schallleistungspegel des Gerätes sowie Vibrationen zwischen den einzelnen Komponenten bzw. zwischen Komponenten und dem Gehäuse verringert bzw. vermieden werden. Die von den Komponenten des Kältemittelkreislaufes, insbesondere vom Kompressor ausgelösten Schwingungen können gedämpft werden.This object is achieved by a refrigerator and / or freezer with the features of claim 1. Thereafter, it is provided that the compressor is arranged directly or indirectly on the condensate water and that between the compressor and condensate and / or between the condensate and its support, such as the housing, one or more sound and / or vibration absorption elements are arranged. In this way, the sound power level the device and vibrations between the individual components or between components and the housing can be reduced or avoided. The vibrations triggered by the components of the refrigerant circuit, in particular by the compressor, can be damped.

Durch die Anordnung des Kompressors auf der Tauwasserschale ergibt sich darüber hinaus eine platzsparende Anordnung dieser kältetechnischen Komponenten.Due to the arrangement of the compressor on the condensation water bowl also results in a space-saving arrangement of refrigeration components.

Die Erfindung betrifft des weiteren ein Kühl- und/oder Gefriergerät mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 2.The invention further relates to a refrigerator and / or freezer with the features of claim 2.

Danach ist vorgesehen, dass eine, mehrere oder alle Komponenten des Kältemittelkreislaufes umfassend die Gruppe Kompressor, Tauwasserschale, Tauwasserschalen-Heizeinrichtung, Verflüssiger, Verdampfer, separat durch Schall- und Schwingungsabsorptionselemente gedämpft angeordnet sind. Darunter soll verstanden werden, dass die entstehenden Schwingungen nicht von einer Komponente des Kältemittelkreislaufes auf eine andere Komponenten des Gerätes übertragen werden und dadurch gegebenenfalls noch verstärkt werden. Vielmehr sind ein oder mehrere der genannten Bauteile separat, das heißt jeweils für sich gedämpft. Dies kann für eine, für mehrere oder auch für alle Komponenten des Kältemittelkreislaufes gelten.Thereafter, it is envisaged that one, several or all components of the refrigerant circuit comprising the group compressor, thawing water, thawing water heater, condenser, evaporator, are arranged separately damped by sound and vibration absorption elements. This is to be understood that the resulting vibrations are not transmitted from one component of the refrigerant circuit to another component of the device and thereby possibly even be strengthened. Rather, one or more of said components are separate, that is, each subdued for themselves. This can apply to one, several or even all components of the refrigerant circuit.

Die Lösungen gemäß der Ansprüche 1 und 2 können auch kombiniert werden, wodurch sich eine besonders effiziente Minimierung des Schallleistungspegels sowie der Verhinderung oder Verringerung von Vibrationen erzielen lässt.The solutions according to claims 1 and 2 can also be combined, whereby a particularly efficient minimization of the sound power level and the prevention or reduction of vibrations can be achieved.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung weist der Kältemittelkreislauf wenigstens einen Verflüssiger und/oder wenigstens einen Verdampfer auf, wobei der Verflüssiger und/oder der Verdampfer mittels Befestigungselementen angebracht ist/sind, die Schall- und/oder Schwingungsabsorptionselemente aufweisen oder aus diesen bestehen.In a further embodiment of the invention, the refrigerant circuit at least one condenser and / or at least one evaporator, wherein the condenser and / or the evaporator is attached by means of fastening elements / which have sound and / or vibration absorption elements or consist of these.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass der Kompressor mittels eines oder mehrerer Fußelemente auf der Tauwasserschale steht, wobei die Fußelemente durch die Schall- und/oder Schwingungsabsorptionselemente gebildet werden oder diese umfassen. Bei den Fußelementen kann es sich um Puffer aus einem elastischen Material, vorzugsweise um Gummipuffer handeln. Mittels dieser Puffer/Gummipuffer steht der Kompressor auf der Tauwasserschale auf.In a further embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the compressor is by means of one or more foot elements on the condensation bowl, wherein the foot elements are formed by the sound and / or vibration absorption elements or include these. The foot elements may be buffers made of an elastic material, preferably rubber buffers. By means of these buffer / rubber buffers, the compressor stands on the thawing tray.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass die Tauwasserschale unmittelbar oder mittelbar auf einem oder mehreren Schall- und/oder Schwingungsabsorptionselementen, insbesondere auf einer oder mehreren Gummimatten aufliegt. Auf diese Weise wird erreicht, dass etwaige Schwingungen der Tauwasserschale, die durch den Betrieb des Kompressors verursacht sein könnten, nicht an das Bauteil übertragen werden, auf dem die Tauwasserschale aufliegt. So können Übertragungen von Schwingungen z. B. in das Gehäuse des Gerätes verringert oder verhindert werden.In a further embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the condensate tray rests directly or indirectly on one or more sound and / or vibration absorption elements, in particular on one or more rubber mats. In this way it is achieved that any vibrations of the condensate bucket, which could be caused by the operation of the compressor, are not transmitted to the component on which rests the condensate tray. Thus, transmissions of vibrations z. B. can be reduced or prevented in the housing of the device.

Zwischen der Tauwasserschale und den Schall- und/oder Schwingungsabsorptionselementen kann eine Tauwasserschalen-Heizeinrichtung angeordnet sein. In diesem Fall ergibt sich eine besonders kompakte Bauweise bzw. Baugruppe, die aus dem Kompressor besteht, der auf der Tauwasserschale aufsitzt, sowie aus der Heizeinrichtung, die sich vorzugsweise unterhalb der Tauwasserschale befindet.Between the condensation water tray and the sound and / or vibration absorption elements, a condensation bowl heating device can be arranged. In this case, a particularly compact design or assembly, which consists of the compressor, which is seated on the condensation water bowl, as well as from the heater, which is preferably located below the condensate bucket.

Vorzugsweise ist die Heizeinrichtung Bestandteil des Verflüssigers oder zumindest derart angeordnet, dass die Abwärme des Verflüssigers oder des diesen durchströmenden Kältemittels in geeigneter Weise an die Heizeinrichtung übertragen wird, so dass diese die Tauwasserschale beheizen und zu der gewünschten Verdunstung des Tauwassers beitragen kann.Preferably, the heating device is part of the condenser or at least arranged such that the waste heat of the condenser or the refrigerant flowing through it is transferred in a suitable manner to the heater, so that they heat the condensation water and can contribute to the desired evaporation of the condensation.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass der Verflüssiger mittels gummigelagerter Bajonettverschlüsse an der Geräterückwand fixiert ist. Des weiteren kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Verdampfer mittels gummigelagerter Bajonettverschlüsse an dem Innenbehälter fixiert ist. Durch beide Maßnahmen wird erreicht, dass eine etwaige Schallentwicklung und/oder Schwingungen dieser Komponenten auf das Gehäuse oder vom Gehäuse an die Komponenten verhindert oder verringert werden.In a further embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the condenser is fixed by means of rubber-mounted bayonet locks on the rear wall of the device. Furthermore, it can be provided that the evaporator is fixed by means of rubber-mounted bayonet locks on the inner container. By both measures is ensures that any noise and / or vibrations of these components are prevented or reduced to the housing or from the housing to the components.

Weiterhin kann vorgesehen sein, dass in dem Bereich der Durchführung der Verdampferleitung durch den Innenbehälter ein oder mehrere Schall und/oder Schwingungen absorbierende Elemente angeordnet sind, durch die ein unmittelbarer Kontakt der Verdampferleitung mit dem Innenbehälter verhindert wird. Im Bereich der Durchführung durch den Innenbehälter können somit Distanzelemente vorgesehen sein, die die Leitung von dem Innenbehälter beabstanden. Diese können beispielsweise durch auf die Durchbrüche und/oder auf die Leitung aufgeklebte Schaumstoffstreifen gebildet werden.Furthermore, it can be provided that in the region of the implementation of the evaporator line through the inner container one or more sound and / or vibration absorbing elements are arranged, is prevented by the direct contact of the evaporator line with the inner container. In the region of the passage through the inner container thus spacer elements may be provided which space the conduit from the inner container. These can be formed, for example, by foam strips adhered to the openings and / or to the conduit.

Zur Schwingungsdämpfung trägt des weiteren bei, wenn der Leitungsabschnitt zwischen Kompressor und Verflüssiger und/oder der Leitungsabschnitt zwischen Verflüssiger und der genannten Tauwasserschalen-Heizeinrichtung eine oder mehrere zusätzliche Schleifen bzw. Bögen zur Schwingungsdämpfung aufweist.For vibration damping further contributes when the line section between the compressor and condenser and / or the line section between the condenser and said condensate bowl heater has one or more additional loops or arcs for vibration damping.

Bei dem Kühlgerät kann es sich beispielsweise um einen Weinklimaschrank handeln. Jedoch ist die Erfindung darauf nicht beschränkt.The refrigerator may be, for example, a wine cellar. However, the invention is not limited thereto.

Weitere Einzelheiten und Vorteile der vorliegenden Erfindung werden anhand eines in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert. Es zeigen:

FIG. 2:
a rear view of an inventive refrigerator or freezer according to the present invention.

Figur 1 zeigt in einer Explosionsdarstellung die Komponenten des Kältemittelkreislaufes des erfindungsgemäßen Kühl- bzw. Gefriergerätes. FIG. 1 shows in an exploded view, the components of the refrigerant circuit of the refrigerator or freezer according to the invention.

Mit dem Bezugszeichen 10 ist ein Kompressor dargestellt, der in an sich bekannter Art und Weise auslassseitig mit einem Verflüssiger 12 in Verbindung steht. In dem Verflüssiger 12 wird das Kältemittel unter Wärmeabgabe kondensiert. Von dort strömt das Kältemittel in dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel in die Tauwasserschalen-Heizeinrichtung 50, die durch eine Rohrleitung mit dem Verflüssiger 12 in Verbindung steht.The reference numeral 10, a compressor is shown, the outlet side in a known manner with a condenser 12 is in communication. In the condenser 12, the refrigerant is condensed with heat release. From there, the refrigerant flows in the illustrated embodiment in the condensate bowl heater 50, which communicates with the condenser 12 through a pipe.

Nach Durchströmen der Tauwasserschalen-Heizeinrichtung 50 gelangt das Kältemittel nach Passieren einer Drossel bzw. Kapillare in den Verdampfer 14, in dem es durch Wärmeaufnahme verdampft. Vom Verdampfer 14 gelangt das Kältemittel sodann zurück zur Einlassseite des Kompressors 10.After flowing through the condensation bowl heater 50, the refrigerant passes after passing through a throttle or capillary into the evaporator 14 in which it evaporates by absorbing heat. From the evaporator 14, the refrigerant then returns to the inlet side of the compressor 10th

Wie dies weiter aus Figur 1 und 2 hervorgeht, steht der Kompressor 10 auf der Tauwasserschale 20 mittelbar auf. Der Kompressor 10 weist auf seiner Unterseite flanschförmige Ansätze auf, die durch Gummipuffer 30 mit einer Auflagefläche der Tauwasserschale 20 verbunden sind. Der Kompressor 10 steht somit nicht unmittelbar auf der Tauwasserschale 20 auf, sondern ist von dieser durch die genannten Gummipuffer 30 beabstandet. Anstelle von Gummi kann auch jedes andere geeignete schall- bzw. schwingungsdämpfende Material eingesetzt werden.Like this further FIG. 1 and 2 As can be seen, the compressor 10 is indirectly on the condensing water 20. The compressor 10 has on its underside flange-shaped lugs, which are connected by rubber buffer 30 with a bearing surface of the condensate tank 20. The compressor 10 is thus not directly on the condensation water tray 20, but is spaced therefrom by said rubber buffer 30. Instead of rubber, any other suitable sound or vibration damping material can be used.

Unterhalb der Tauwasserschale 20 befindet sich die Tauwasserschalen-Heizeinrichtung 50, die - wie ausgeführt - mit dem Verflüssiger 12 in Verbindung steht, so dass das vergleichsweise warme Kältemittel die Tauwasserschalen-Heizeinrichtung 50 durchströmt und dadurch die Tauwasserschale 20 sowie das darin befindliche Tauwasser erwärmt. Unterhalb der Tauwasserschalen-Heizeinrichtung 50 befindet sich eine Gummimatte 40, die in dem hier dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel eine Dicke von ca. 3 mm aufweist. Somit ist die Tauwasserschalen-Heizeinrichtung 50 sowie die Tauwasserschale 20 nach unten hin durch eine Gummimatte oder andere geeignete Dämpfungselemente zum Gehäuse hin gedämpft.Below the thawing water tray 20 is the thawing water heater 50, which - as stated - is in communication with the liquefier 12, so that the comparatively warm refrigerant flows through the thawing water heater 50 and thereby heats the thawing water tray 20 and the thawing water contained therein. Below the condensation bowl heating device 50 is a rubber mat 40, which has a thickness of about 3 mm in the embodiment shown here. Thus, the thawing water heater 50 as well as the thawing water tray 20 is downwardly damped by a rubber mat or other suitable damping elements to the housing.

Wie dies weiter aus Figur 1 hervorgeht, wird der Verflüssiger 12 durch gummigelagerte Bajonettverschlüsse 60 an der Geräterückwand fixiert. In ähnlicher Weise wird der Verdampfer ebenfalls mittels gummigelagerter Bajonettverschlüsse 70 an dem Innenbehälter fixiert, der in Figur 1 nicht dargestellt ist. Des weiteren ist die Verdampferzuleitung und/oder die vom Verdampfer 14 abführende Leitung vom Innenbehälter durch geeignete Distanzstücke beabstandet. So ist es beispielsweise denkbar, mit Hilfe eines aufgeklebten Schaumstoffstreifens, eine Beabstandung dieser Leitungen von der entsprechenden Bohrung des Innenbehälters zu erzielen.Like this further FIG. 1 As can be seen, the condenser 12 is fixed by rubber-mounted bayonet locks 60 on the back of the device. Similarly, the evaporator is also fixed by means of rubber-mounted bayonet locks 70 on the inner container, which in FIG. 1 not shown. Furthermore, the evaporator feed line and / or the laxative line from the evaporator 14 is spaced from the inner container by suitable spacers. Thus, it is conceivable, for example, with the aid of a glued-on foam strip, to achieve a spacing of these lines from the corresponding bore of the inner container.

Wie dies weiter aus Figur 1 hervorgeht, ist die Anbindung vom Verflüssiger 12 zum Verdichter 10 bzw. zur Tauwasserschalen-Heizeinrichtung 50 mit zusätzlichen Schleifen (a) ausgeführt, damit auftretende Schwingungen gedämpft werden können.Like this further FIG. 1 As can be seen, the connection from the condenser 12 to the compressor 10 or to the thawing-water heater 50 is provided with additional loops (a) so that vibrations occurring can be damped.

In dem hier dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel werden alle relevanten Bauteile separat gedämpft. Alle entstehenden Schwingungen werden minimiert bzw. nicht mehr von einem zum anderen Bauteil übertragen und gegebenenfalls verstärkt.In the embodiment shown here all relevant components are attenuated separately. All resulting vibrations are minimized or no longer transmitted from one to the other component and possibly reinforced.

Durch die kompakte Bauweise können die einzelnen vormontierten Bauteile in der Fertigung sehr einfach montiert werden.Due to the compact design, the individual pre-assembled components can be very easily assembled in production.

Durch die Erfindung wird der Vorteil erzielt, dass der Schallleistungspegel des Gerätes minimiert wird, dass Vibrationen zwischen den einzelnen Komponenten und dem Gehäuse verhindert oder zumindest verringert werden, dass von der Kältetechnik bzw. dem Kältemittelkreislauf ausgelösten Schwingungen gedämpft werden.The invention achieves the advantage that the sound power level of the device is minimized, that vibrations between the individual components and the housing are prevented or at least reduced, that vibrations triggered by the refrigeration or the refrigerant circuit are damped.

Je nach Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann des weiteren als Vorteil genannt werden, dass sich eine platzsparende Anordnung der kältetechnischen Komponenten ergibt, dass die Nutzung der Verflüssigerabwärme zur Tauwasserverdunstung möglich ist, dass eine Kostenersparnis durch den Wegfall der Korrosionsbeschichtung der Tauwasserschalen-Heizeinrichtung denkbar ist und dass eine Modulbauweise bezüglich Tauwasserschalen-Heizeinrichtung, Tauwasserschale, Verdichter, Verflüssiger möglich ist.Depending on the embodiment of the invention may also be mentioned as an advantage that results in a space-saving arrangement of refrigeration components, that the use of Verflüssigerabwärme for condensation evaporation is possible that a cost savings by eliminating the corrosion coating of the condensate bowl heater is conceivable and that modular with respect to condenser heater, thawing tray, compressor, condenser is possible.

Werden die Teile einzeln vormontiert, kann eine rasche und einfache Fertigung erfolgen.If the parts are preassembled individually, a quick and easy production can take place.
