Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a refrigeration device which is suitable for rapidly cooling beverage bottles.
  • a user In conventional refrigeration devices, a user has various options for cooling beverage bottles. Most household refrigerators have space for drinks bottles in a door rack. If a user places a wine bottle with a content of 0.7 liters and a temperature of 25 ° C in such a door rack, it takes about 4 hours until the bottle and its contents have cooled to below 10 ° C. Shorter times of around 120 minutes can be achieved in a circulating air cooling unit in which cold air is forced through a fan or by placing the bottle in the immediate vicinity of an evaporator that is usually attached to the rear wall of the unit.
  • Refrigerators that allow bottles to cool quickly outside a freezer are off KR 2008 0003666A1 and US 2007/0151284 A1 known. These documents propose a rapid cooling device that can be placed in a cooling compartment of a refrigerator and comprises a housing for receiving a bottle to be cooled, a fan for driving an air flow through the housing and a sensor for starting the rapid cooling device in the presence of a bottle in the housing.
  • the fan makes the rapid cooling device complex; it is also problematic to ensure the electrical operational safety of the fan in the moist environment of a refrigerator compartment.
  • EP 1 314 940 A1 A refrigeration device is known in which a multipurpose compartment is divided into a normal refrigerator compartment and preferably can be acted upon with cold air by means of adjustable flaps.
  • EP 1 314 940 A1 discloses a refrigerator according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • EP 1 621 831 describes a refrigeration device in which an open container is displaceable in a frame between a position in which a part of the container engages in a cooling air flow in order to deflect the cooling air flow into the container and a position offset against the cooling air flow.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a refrigeration device in which bottles can be cooled in a short time with minimal effort and without the risk of hypothermia.
  • Refrigeration device is understood here to mean a household refrigeration device, that is to say a refrigeration device that is used for household management, such as a refrigerator or a fridge-freezer combination.
  • Conventional refrigeration devices usually have an evaporator and a storage space cooled by air flowing along the evaporator.
  • the evaporator can be placed directly adjacent to the storage space - in the case of devices in a so-called cold wall construction - so that the flow path of the air along the evaporator runs completely inside the storage space.
  • the evaporator is arranged in a chamber which is separate from the storage space, and a fan is usually provided to drive an air flow in which air drawn from the storage space sweeps along the evaporator in the chamber and after cooling on the evaporator is returned to the storage room.
  • the air can be distributed freely in the storage room after cooling on the evaporator. In order to achieve an even temperature distribution in the storage room, this is also desirable.
  • This compartment is designed to hold at least one beverage bottle.
  • the cooling capacity of the evaporator thus initially essentially benefits the compartment, so that bottles placed in this compartment cool down much faster than refrigerated goods in the rest of the storage room. Since the compartment generally only makes up a small fraction of the volume of the entire storage space, the average residence time of the air in the compartment is short, ie after only briefly heating the air on one or more bottles placed in the compartment, the air is removed by fresh cold air Evaporator replaces, which also promotes the speed at which the bottles cool.
  • the partitioned compartment is preferably arranged adjacent to a lower edge of the evaporator.
  • a bottle cooler housing through which the compartment is separated from the storage space, can preferably be removed, so that the space occupied by the compartment can be used for other purposes when the bottle cooling function is not required.
  • the current-carrying plate can be movable between a position in which it opens up an air passage that leads past the compartment and a position in which it blocks this passage, so that the air that is stuck on the plate finds its way through the compartment got to.
  • a sensor for detecting a bottle can be provided in the compartment, and the refrigeration machine is coupled to the sensor in order, when the sensor detects at least one bottle in the compartment, to change from an operating state with a normal average cooling capacity to an operating state with a higher one to switch medium cooling capacity.
  • a timer is preferably provided which, after a predetermined period of time, which is likely to be sufficient for cooling one or more bottles in the compartment, switches the refrigerator back to the operating state with normal average cooling capacity.
  • a control circuit regulates the operation of the refrigeration machine on the basis of an actual temperature measured in the storage room and a predefined target temperature
  • this control circuit can expediently be set up to use a lower target temperature in the operating state with a higher average cooling capacity than in the operating state with normal average cooling capacity.
  • a target temperature of, for example, approx. 7 ° C can be specified
  • this target temperature is reduced to a value just above freezing, in order to achieve a high cooling capacity in the compartment To have available, but on the other hand to ensure that refrigerated goods in the rest of the storage room cannot be undercooled by cold air flowing out of the compartment.
  • Fig. 1 shows a section through the body of a refrigerator in a no-frost design along a section plane, which in the Fig. 2 shown front view of the body is designated II.
  • the interior of the body is divided in a manner known per se by a shell 2 mounted under its ceiling 1 into an evaporator chamber 3 with an evaporator 4 and a blower (not shown) and a storage space 5 for refrigerated goods.

  • Through openings 6 see Fig.
  • a line 7 which extends in a rear wall 8 of the body and has a plurality of outlet openings 9 leading back into the storage space 5 .
  • Rake-shaped control element 10 shown as a dashed outline, extends inside the line 7.
  • Plate-like fingers 11 of the control element 10 are located below the outlet openings 9, and a lower end of a vertical bar 12 connecting the fingers 11 is accessible via a control opening 13 in the rear wall 8 from the storage room 5.
  • the bottle cooler housing 15 is in Fig. 2 shown as a transparent, dotted outline in order to make visible the control opening 13 which it conceals during operation.
  • the essentially cuboid bottle cooler housing 15 has a ceiling 16 and two side walls 17, 18, but neither the bottom nor the front or rear wall.
  • An extension 19 protrudes from the rear edge of the side wall designated 18, which, when the bottle cooler housing 15 is correctly positioned in direct contact with the rear wall 8 of the body, engages in the control opening 13 and thereby displaces the control element 10 upwards.
  • a control switch can be provided, which is actuated directly by the extension engaging in the opening 13 or indirectly via the resulting displacement of the control element 10. This control switch influences the operation of a refrigerator of the device in the manner described later.
  • the width of the bottle cooler housing 15 is significantly smaller than that of the storage room 5; here it is little more than half the width of the storage space 5 and is sufficient to accommodate two bottles 20 side by side in the housing 15.
  • the volume of the housing 15 is therefore significantly smaller than if it were to extend over the entire width of the storage space 5, and accordingly, for a given throughput of the fan, a high flow velocity of the air in the housing 15 and consequently efficient, fast cooling can be achieved, especially the free cross section of the housing 15 is additionally restricted therein by accommodating the maximum possible number of bottles 20.
  • control opening 13 is placed on the rear wall 8 such that the extension 19 inevitably meets the control opening 13 when the bottle cooler housing 15 is placed with its side wall 17 in contact with the left side wall of the body and into the Storage room 5 is pushed into it.
  • the bottle cooler housing 15 of the Figures 1 and 2 can only be placed in contact with the left side wall of the body. Therefore, before the housing 15 can be inserted and used, the left half of the refrigerated goods carrier 14, between the left side wall and the control opening 13, must be cleared of other refrigerated goods.
  • Fig. 3 shows a perspective view of a bottle cooler housing 15 according to a modified embodiment.
  • This housing 15 also has a bottom 21, and the extension 19 on its side wall 18 is symmetrical with respect to a horizontal mirror plane.
  • the bottle cooler housing 15 In adaptation to this second embodiment of the bottle cooler housing 15 are - different from the representation of the Fig. 2 - Provided on the rear wall 8 of the refrigerator body two control openings 13 symmetrically to each other left and right of the row of outlet openings 9, and the control element 10 is ladder-shaped, with two parallel vertical strips and fingers connecting these. The lower ends of the two strips are in turn accessible through the openings 13. So the bottle cooler housing 15 of the Fig. 3 both in its orientation shown in the figure, with the side wall 18 touching the left side wall of the body and extension 19 engaging in the right control opening 13, and with the base 21 turned upwards, so that the wall 17 is the right side wall of the body 1 touches and the extension 19 engages in the left control opening 13.
  • the user thus has the choice of which side of the body he would like to place the bottle cooler housing 15 on.
  • This is particularly expedient in the case of a body with a door which can be optionally hinged on the right or left, since the bottle cooler housing 15 is easier to load and unload if it is placed on the side wall of the body facing away from the door hinge.
  • Fig. 4 shows a section through the lower half of a refrigerator body according to a first embodiment of the invention.
  • the half of the body is with the in Fig. 1 shown identical.
  • the lowermost outlet opening 9 of the line 7 opens into a compartment 42 between two plate-shaped refrigerated goods carriers 14.
  • the control element 10, which as in FIG Fig. 1 shown a vertical bar and comprises fingers protruding therefrom, here has a triangular extension 22 which extends through the control opening 13 into the compartment.
  • the extension 22 In contact with the bottom of a bottle 20 pushed into the compartment 42 up to the rear wall 8, the extension 22 is displaced upward, so that here too the fingers block all outlet openings 9 with the exception of the lowest and the entire cold air flow from the evaporator chamber 23 in direct the compartment 23 into it.
  • the compartment 42 delimited by the two refrigerated goods carriers 14 functions as a bottle cooling compartment.
  • a control switch actuated by the displacement of the control element 10 can also be provided here.
  • a partition that is oriented in the depth direction - preferably displaceable in the width direction - can be arranged in the bottle cooling compartment in order to cut off an edge region of the compartment that is not used for bottle cooling from the cold air supply via the lowermost opening 9 and thereby the flow rate of the cold air increase in the rest of the subject.
