Description

Diese Anmeldung erstreckt sich auf ein elektrisches Haushaltsgerät, insbesondere auf einen elektrischen Kühlschrank mit Flüssigkristall-Fernsehen.This application extends to a household electrical appliance, in particular to an electric refrigerator with liquid crystal television.

Traditionelle elektrische Haushaltsgeräte, zum Beispiel Flüssigkristall-Fernsehgeräte oder elektrische Kühlschränke, können in der Regel lediglich eine traditionelle Funktion, über die sie verfügen, realisieren. Ein Fernsehgerät verfügt nur über die Funktion, Fernsehsignale oder andere Multimediasignale, die in das Fernsehgerät eingespeist werden, zum Beispiel Signale einer DVD, wiederzugeben. Ein elektrischer Kühlschrank verfügt nur über die Funktion zum Kühlen und Gefrieren von Lebensmitteln. Im Zuge der Steigerung des Lebensniveaus der Menschen sowie des wissenschaftlich-technischen Fortschritts erhoffen sich jedoch die Menschen von einem elektrischen Haushaltsgerät, dass es gleichzeitig mehrere Funktionen realisieren kann.Traditional household electrical appliances, such as liquid crystal televisions or electric refrigerators, typically can only perform a traditional function they have. A television only has the function of reproducing television signals or other multimedia signals fed into the television, for example signals from a DVD. An electric refrigerator only has the function of cooling and freezing food. In the course of increasing the living standards of people and the scientific-technical progress, however, people hope for a household electrical appliance that it can simultaneously realize several functions.

Die chinesischen Patentanträge Nr. 03154670.6 und 200410089764.9 offenbaren einen Kühlschrank mit Fernsehgerät. Konkret wird der Bildschirm des Fernsehgeräts auf den Türkörper des elektrischen Kühlschranks montiert und kann Fernsehsignale wiedergeben. Diese Gestaltung ermöglicht es einem traditionellen elektrischen Kühlschrank, gleichzeitig über die Funktion eines Fernsehgeräts zu verfügen. Verbraucher, die den elektrischen Kühlschrank kaufen, erhalten gleichzeitig die Möglichkeit, sich am Fernsehprogramm zu erfreuen. Die herkömmliche Gestaltung besteht jedoch durchweg darin, auf der Frontplatte des Türkörpers des Kühlschranks eine Öffnung anzubringen, die mit der Größe der Abmessungen des Bildschirms des Fernsehgerätes übereinstimmt, und anschließend den Bildschirm des Fernsehgerätes von der Vorderseite des Türkörpers durch die Öffnung auf der Frontplatte in diesen Türkörper einzusetzen und zu befestigen. Bei dieser Montage ist es unvermeidbar, dass auf der Frontplatte eine Öffnung angebracht wird und im Umkreis der Öffnung kleine Spalten zurückbleiben, was zu folgenden Mängeln führt: Erstens wird der ästhetische Gesamteindruck des Türköpers des Kühlschranks zerstört. Zweitens ist es bei einer längeren Nutzung unvermeidlich, da der Kühlschrank in der Regel in Räumen mit einem starken Aufkommen von Öldunst und Staub, wie der Küche, steht, dass Staub durch die Spalte in den Bildschirm des Fernsehgeräts eindringt und den Bildschirm schmutzig und unscharf werden lässt.Chinese patent applications no. 03154670.6 and 200410089764.9 reveal a fridge with TV. Specifically, the screen of the TV is mounted on the door body of the electric refrigerator and can reproduce television signals. This design allows a traditional electric refrigerator to simultaneously function as a television. Consumers who buy the electric refrigerator, at the same time get the opportunity to enjoy the television program. However, the conventional design is consistently to provide an opening on the front panel of the door body of the refrigerator that matches the size of the dimensions of the television screen, and then the screen of the television from the front of the door body through the opening on the front panel in this Insert door body and fasten. In this assembly, it is inevitable that an opening is made on the front panel and small gaps remain in the vicinity of the opening, resulting in the following defects: First, the aesthetic overall impression of the door body of the refrigerator is destroyed. Secondly, prolonged use is inevitable because the refrigerator is typically located in rooms with a lot of oil mist and dust, such as the kitchen, dust from entering the TV screen through the gaps, leaving the screen dirty and out of focus leaves.

Als dritter Schritt wird die fertig zusammengesetzte Aufnahmevorrichtung auf den Rahmen 20 montiert, so dass der Einführungsteil 206 der Aufnahmevorrichtung oberhalb des Rahmens 20 eingesteckt wird, wodurch die Oberseite des Rahmens 20 entsteht. Als vierter Schritt wird das Klebeelement 21 (doppelseitiges Klebeband in dieser Ausführungsform) auf die Seiten 201 und 202 des Rahmens 20 sowie auf die Seiten des Aufnahmeteils 204 und des Einführungsteils 206 geklebt. Als fünfter Schritt wird die Frontplatte 22, direkt gerichtet auf den Rahmen 20, auf den Rahmen 20 gedrückt, so dass die Innenfläche der Frontplatte 22 und das bereits auf den Rahmen 20 geklebte Klebeelement 21 vollständig Kontakt haben. Dadurch werden die Frontplatte 22 und der Rahmen 20 durch das Klebeelement 21 miteinander befestigt und bilden einen internen geschlossenen Hohlraum, der durch die umliegenden Teile Einsatz 200, Aufnahmeteil 204 und Einführungsteil 206 sowie Frontplatte 22 gebildet wird. Als sechster Schritt wird der im flüssigen Zustand befindliche Schaumstoff durch eine vorab angebrachte Einspritzöffnung in diesen internen geschlossenen Hohlraum eingespritzt. Er erstarrt, wodurch die Wärmeisolationsschicht des Türkörpers 2 des elektrischen Kühlschranks entsteht. Als siebter Schritt wird der Flüssigkristall-Bildschirm 3 von der Öffnung 208 des Einführungsteils 206 in die Aufnahmevorrichtung eingesteckt und im Aufnahmeraum des Aufnahmeteils 204 befestigt, so dass der Flüssigkristall-Bildschirm des Flüssigkristall-Bildschirms 3 direkt gegenüber dem transparenten Bereich 220 der Frontplatte 22 liegt. Als letzter Schritt wird eine Verschlussvorrichtung 31 auf der Öffnung 208 des Einführungsteils 206 befestigt, wodurch diese Öffnung 208 verschlossen wird. In dieser Ausführungsform handelt es sich bei der Verschlussvorrichtung 31 um einen Dichtungsstreifen aus Gummi, der in die Öffnung 208 eingesteckt werden kann.
