Definitions

  • This invention relates to shelves in cooling devices used for storing foodstuffs.
  • At least one shelf slot is provided in the internal walls of the cooling device according to the present invention for use in storing foodstuff, wherein at least one shelf is placed into this slot.
  • the cooling device further comprises at least one foldable shelf in the form of a plate, which is situated underneath a device shelf and connected with one of its edge to the device shelf; can be opened by turning it downwards; holds any material put on itself by leaning such material to an inner wall and to an upper surface of itself; and when it is closed, which becomes closer to the device shelf.
  • the open state of the foldable shelf is the state at which the shelf stays at a certain angle, wherein at this angle, any material put on itself leans to the device wall and the upper surface of the shelf and assumes a hanging position at this state.
  • the closed state of the foldable shelf is the state at which it is brought close to the underside of the device shelf. Thanks to its plate form, the foldable shelf does not occupy any space when it is in its closed space either.
  • the objective of this invention is to provide a foldable shelf for cooling devices used in storing foodstuff.
  • Another objective of this invention is to provide a foldable shelf, which does not occupy space when it is not in use.
  • a further objective of the present invention is to provide a foldable shelf, which can be easily displaced, or dislocated, in a cooling device.
  • Still a further objective of the present invention is to provide a simply-produced, -mounted, and -used, inexpensive and reliable cooling device shelf.
  • FIGS 1 and 2 provide perspective views of a cooling device (A) according to the present invention.
  • This device (A) is used for storing foodstuffs and comprises at least one shelf (3) on which foodstuffs and/or kitchen utensils can be put.
  • more than one shelf slot (2) can be disposed at the inner walls (1) of the device (A). Thanks to these shelf slots (2), the height of shelves (3) can be adjusted, and different areas of use generated in line with the size of materials to be placed into the device (A).
  • the closed and open states of at least one foldable shelf (4) used in the device (A) are depicted in figures 1 and 2 .
  • the foldable shelf (4) is connected from one of its side (40) to the device shelf (3) (illustrated in figures 3 and 4 as the rear edge), and is opened by turning it towards the underside of the shelf (3) ( Figure 2 ).
  • various materials, kitchen utensils (5) illustrated in Figure 2 as a bottle
  • the open state of the foldable shelf (4) is the state at which the shelf (4) stays at a certain angular position, wherein at this angle, any material put on itself leans to the device wall (1) and the upper surface (45) of the shelf (see figures 3 and 4 ) and assumes a hanging position at this state.
  • Figure 1 illustrates the folded and therefore the closed state of the shelf (4).
  • the foldable shelf (4) is brought close to or leaned against (almost in parallel to) the lower side of the device shelf (3). Thanks to the almost planar plate-like form of the foldable shelf (4) with thin edges, the shelf will not occupy any space even when it is folded.
  • the device shelf (3) comprises at least one wire (31) to which the foldable shelf (4) is fitted. If, alternatively, more than one wire (31) is present on the device shelf (3), it becomes possible to easily remove the foldable shelf (4) from one wire (31) and to fit it back to another one. Thanks to this feature, the foldable shelf (4) can also be dislocated horizontally, so that materials with different sizes can be put on the shelf when it is opened.
  • the fact that the height of the device shelf (3) is adjustable allows changing the height of the foldable shelf (4) as well. Put in other words, using a device shelf (3) comprising more than one wire (31) and adjusting the height of the shelf (3) allow to change the position of the foldable shelf (4) on two directions (horizontal and vertical).
  • the foldable shelf (4) stays below the device shelf (3), it has to be kept closed when not used. At least one spring mechanism (not illustrated in figures) bringing the shelf (4) to its closed state can be used for this purpose. Or, materials with magnetic features (not illustrated in figures) can be used on both shelves (3, 4) to provide a mutual attachment in order to avoid the case of unintentionally opening the shelf (4) while it is in its closed state. Another alternative is to make the foldable shelf (4) contact against the device shelf (3) so as to prevent it from turning by itself.
  • FIGS 3 to 5 provide perspective illustrations of the foldable shelf (4) ( figures 4 and 5 depict an alternative shelf (4) embodiment).
  • At least connection slot (41) is provided at the rear edge (40) of the shelf (4), allowing to fit the shelf (4) to the wire (31).
  • the connection slot (41) has a hook-shaped form with an aperture to which a wire (31) can be leaned. Thanks to these connection slots (41), the foldable shelf (4) can be rotated with respect to the main axis (running along the wire) of the wire (31).
  • at least one stop protrusion (43) is provided on at least one side edge (42, 42') of the shelf (4).
  • each stop protrusion (43) rests onto an extension (not illustrated in figures) of the device shelf (3) and prevents the foldable shelf (4) from turning more so as to become open.
  • the place of the stop protrusions (43) at the side edges (42, 42') determines the angular position of the foldable shelf (4) at the state when it is opened to its maximum.
  • a ragged section (49) is formed on the upper surface (45) of the shelf (4), as illustrated in Figure 4 , and any materials put on this surface (45) are kept stable against slipping down.
  • at least one protrusion (46), extending upwards, is formed on the front edge (44) of the shelf (4) with a similar purpose.
  • On the lower surface (47) of the shelf is disposed at least one support rib (48) ( Figure 5 ) to enhance the strength of the shelf.
  • an extension (41 a) is provided in the hook-shaped form of the connection slot (41). When the foldable shelf (4) is open, this extension (41 a) can be rested against any point on the device shelf (3) and determine the position at which the foldable shelf (4) shall stay.
  • the shelf (4) can be kept at a certain angle by means of any extension, provided on the foldable shelf (4) and, when the latter is opened, allowing to rest it (4) against the device shelf (3).
  • Hook-shaped connection slots (41) of the foldable shelf (4) comprised in the device (A) according to the present invention allow to easily attach/detach the shelf (4) to/from the wire (31).
