Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine TĂŒr eines KĂŒhl- und/oder GefriergerĂ€tes mit wenigstens einem an der TĂŒrinnenseite angeordneten TĂŒrabsteller, wobei der TĂŒrabsteller relativ zu der TĂŒrinnenseite derart bewegbar ausgefĂŒhrt ist, dass er an unterschiedlichen Positionen der TĂŒrinnenseite arretierbar ist.The present invention relates to a door of a refrigerator and / or freezer with at least one arranged on the inside of the door door racks, wherein the door racks is designed to be movable relative to the inside of the door so that it can be locked at different positions of the inside of the door.

Derartige TĂŒren mit an deren Innenseite bzw. InnentĂŒr angeordneten TĂŒrabstellern sind in zahlreichen unterschiedlichen AusfĂŒhrungsformen bekannt. Herkömmliche TĂŒrabsteller weisen jedoch den Nachteil auf, dass sie hĂ€ufig einen vergleichsweise komplizierten Mechanismus aufweisen, mittels dessen die Arretierung der TĂŒrabsteller an der gewĂŒnschten Position der TĂŒrinnenseite erfolgt. Bei bekannten TĂŒrabstellern besteht gegebenenfalls ein weiterer Nachteil darin, dass diese zum Zwecke der Verstellung komplett abgenommen und dann in Höhenrichtung versetzt an neuer Position eingehĂ€ngt werden. Bei Beladung der TĂŒrabsteller mit hohen Waren bzw. bei TĂŒrabstellern, die keine RĂŒckwand aufweisen, sollte die Ware zunĂ€chst entnommen werden, der Absteller in der Höhe versetzt werden und dann die Ware wieder eingerĂ€umt werden. Diese Art der Höhenverstellung eines TĂŒrabstellers ist vergleichsweise umstĂ€ndlich und daher nicht benutzerfreundlich.Such doors with arranged on the inside or inside door door compartments are known in numerous different embodiments. However, conventional door racks have the disadvantage that they often have a relatively complicated mechanism by means of which the locking of the door racks takes place at the desired position of the inside of the door. In known door cabinets, if necessary, there is a further disadvantage in that they are completely removed for the purpose of adjustment and then mounted in a new position offset in the vertical direction. When loading the door racks with high goods or door cabinets, which have no back wall, the goods should first be removed, the Absteller be offset in height and then the goods are given back. This type of height adjustment of a door compartment is relatively cumbersome and therefore not user-friendly.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine TĂŒr der eingangs genannten Art dahingehend weiterzubilden, dass der TĂŒrabsteller auf vergleichsweise einfache Art und Weise in Höhenrichtung verstellbar ist.The present invention is therefore the object of developing a door of the type mentioned in that the door rack is adjustable in a height direction in a comparatively simple manner.

Diese Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, dass an der TĂŒrinnenseite wenigstens eine FĂŒhrung in Form von wenigstens einem an der TĂŒrinnenseite angeordneten, vorzugsweise vertikal verlaufenden Steg vorgesehen ist. Der oder die Stege bilden fĂŒr den oder die TĂŒrabsteller eine FĂŒhrung, bei dessen Verstellung.This object is achieved in that at least one guide in the form of at least one arranged on the inside of the door, preferably vertically extending web is provided on the inside of the door. The one or more webs form a guide for the or the door racks, in its adjustment.

GrundsĂ€tzlich ist es somit denkbar, dass an der TĂŒrinnenseite ein vorzugsweise vertikal angeordneter Steg angeordnet ist. Von der Erfindung ist jedoch auch der Fall umfasst, dass mehr als ein Steg, vorzugsweise mehrere parallele Stege, wie beispielsweise zwei parallele Stege an der TĂŒrinnenseite angeordnet sind.In principle, it is therefore conceivable that a preferably vertically arranged web is arranged on the inside of the door. However, the invention also includes the case that more than one web, preferably a plurality of parallel webs, such as two parallel webs are arranged on the inside of the door.

Der oder die Stege verlaufen vorzugsweise in vertikaler Richtung.The web or webs preferably extend in the vertical direction.

Des Weiteren ist vorgesehen, dass der oder die Stege oder auch ein anderer Bereich der TĂŒrinnenseite erste Arretierungsmittel aufweist, die mit an dem TĂŒrabsteller angeordneten zweiten Arretierungsmitteln derart zusammenwirken, dass der TĂŒrabsteller durch die ersten und die zweiten Arretierungsmittel in der gewĂŒnschten Position arretiert wird. Weiterhin ist vorgesehen, dass der TĂŒrabsteller oder die zweiten Mittel einen Bereich der InnentĂŒr, und zwar vorzugsweise den oder die Stege und/oder die ersten Mittel, wenigstens bereichsweise hintergreift, so dass ein versehentliches Kippen oder Herausfallen des TĂŒrabstellers bzw. der darauf befindlichen Ware verhindert wird.Furthermore, it is provided that the one or more webs or another portion of the inside of the door has first locking means which cooperate with arranged on the door racks second locking means such that the door racks is locked by the first and the second locking means in the desired position. It is further provided that the door racks or the second means a portion of the inner door, and preferably the one or more webs and / or the first means, at least partially engages behind, so that accidental tilting or falling out of the door compartment or the goods located thereon prevented becomes.

Vorzugsweise ist die TĂŒrinnenseite sowie der TĂŒrabsteller so ausgefĂŒhrt, dass eine auf die Vertikalrichtung eingeschrĂ€nkte Höhenverstellung ohne den Einbau bzw. die Zuhilfenahme von Zusatzteilen erreicht wird. Denkbar ist es, dass die ersten Mittel des Steges bzw. der Stege nicht nur Arretierungsmittel bilden, mittels derer der TĂŒrabsteller in der gewĂŒnschten vertikalen Position arretierbar ist, sondern zusĂ€tzlich die genannte FĂŒhrung fĂŒr die Vertikalverstellung des TĂŒrabstellers bilden.Preferably, the inside of the door and the door rack is designed so that a limited to the vertical direction height adjustment without the installation or the use of additional parts is achieved. It is conceivable that the first means of the web or the webs not only form locking means, by means of which the door racks can be locked in the desired vertical position, but also form the said guide for the vertical adjustment of the door compartment.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass die zweiten Mittel durch ein mit dem TĂŒrabsteller einteilig verbundenes Teil, beispielsweise durch ein direkt an den TĂŒrabteller angespritztes Teil gebildet werden. Denkbar ist es jedoch auch, dass die zweiten Mittel durch ein mit dem TĂŒrabsteller in Verbindung stehendes, jedoch nicht einteilig mit diesem verbundenen Teil gebildet werden.In a further embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the second means are formed by a part integrally connected to the door racks, for example by a directly molded onto the door plate part. It is also conceivable, however, for the second means to be formed by a part connected to the door racks, but not integrally connected thereto.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass der oder die Stege eine zum TĂŒrabsteller gerichtet Vorderseite, eine von diesem abgewandte RĂŒckseite und eine Außen- und Innenseite aufweisen und dass die ersten Mittel an einer oder mehrerer dieser Seiten angeordnet sind. Denkbar ist es beispielsweise, dass die genannten ersten Mittel durch Noppen gebildet werden, die beispielsweise auf der Innenseite des Steges bzw. auf den einander zugewandten Innenseiten der Stege angeordnet sind und die in vertikaler Richtung in einem bestimmten Maß voneinander beabstandet sind, das das Raster fĂŒr die Positionierung der TĂŒrabsteller bildet.In a further embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the web or webs have a front side facing the door racks, a rear side facing away from the latter, and an outer and inner side, and that the first means are arranged on one or more of these sides. It is conceivable, for example, that said first means are formed by nubs, which are arranged for example on the inside of the web or on the mutually facing inner sides of the webs and which are spaced apart in the vertical direction to a certain extent, which is the grid for the positioning of the door racks forms.

GrundsĂ€tzlich sind auch davon abweichende AusfĂŒhrungen möglich, wie beispielsweise die Anordnung von Noppen auf der Außenseite des Steges bzw. auf den voneinander abgewandten Außenseiten der Stege.In principle, deviating designs are possible, such as the arrangement of knobs on the outside of the web or on the outer sides of the webs facing away from each other.

Statt Noppen können selbstverstĂ€ndlich auch beliebige andere VorsprĂŒnge oder auch Vertiefungen in dem Steg bzw. in den Stegen vorgesehen sein.Instead of nubs, of course, any other projections or recesses may be provided in the web or in the webs.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass der TĂŒrabsteller eine in Verstellrichtung des TĂŒrabstellers verlaufende Nut aufweist, die den Steg oder die daran angeordneten ersten Mittel oder einen anderen Bereich der TĂŒrinnenseite hintergreift. GrundsĂ€tzlich ist es ebenfalls denkbar, dass der Steg oder ein anderer Bereich der TĂŒrinnenseite eine in Verstellrichtung des TĂŒrabstellers verlaufende Nut aufweist, in die ein Vorsprung des TĂŒrabstellers eingreift.In a further embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the door rack has a groove extending in the adjustment direction of the door compartment, which engages behind the web or the first means disposed thereon or another area of the door inner side. In principle, it is likewise conceivable that the web or another region of the inside of the door has a groove extending in the adjustment direction of the door compartment, in which a projection of the door compartment engages.

Denkbar ist es beispielsweise somit, dass der TĂŒrabsteller eine vertikale Nut aufweist, die an dem Steg angeordnete Noppen hintergreift. Diese Noppen haben somit nicht nur die Funktion der Arretierung des TĂŒrabstellers in einer gewĂŒnschten Position, sondern auch die Funktion der FĂŒhrung des TĂŒrabstellers beim Verstellvorgang und dienen zudem als Kippsicherung gegen das Kippen oder Abfallen des TĂŒrabstellers von der InnentĂŒr.It is therefore conceivable, for example, that the door racks have a vertical groove which engages behind arranged on the web nubs. These knobs thus have not only the function of locking the door compartment in a desired position, but also the function of the leadership of the door compartment during adjustment and also serve as Kippsicherung against tilting or falling of the door compartment of the inner door.

GrundsĂ€tzlich kann vorgesehen sein, dass die InnentĂŒr bzw. der oder die Stege sowie der TĂŒrabsteller so angeordnet sind, dass in bestimmten Positionen des TĂŒrabstellers ein Abnehmen des TĂŒrabstellers beispielsweise fĂŒr Reinigungszwecke oder zu dessen Austausch möglich ist.In principle, it can be provided that the inner door or the one or more webs and the door racks are arranged so that in certain positions of the door compartment removal of the door compartment, for example, for cleaning or to replace it is possible.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass die zweiten Mittel durch eine bewegbare Lasche, durch einen Schieber, durch eine drehbare Anordnung, insbesondere durch einen Drehhebel oder durch eine eine Klemmkraft ausĂŒbende Einrichtung gebildet werden. Auch eine Kombination dieser exemplarisch aufgezĂ€hlten zweiten Mittel ist denkbar.In a further embodiment of the invention it is provided that the second means are formed by a movable tab, by a slider, by a rotatable arrangement, in particular by a rotary lever or by a device exerting a clamping force. A combination of these exemplary enumerated second means is conceivable.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass der TĂŒrabsteller wenigstens eine, vorzugsweise zwei Ausnehmungen aufweist, die den Steg bzw. die Stege der InnentĂŒr zumindest teilweise umgreifen. Dies fĂŒhrt zu einer Verbesserung der FĂŒhrung des TĂŒrabstellers an dem Stege bzw. an den Stegen. Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, dass die Ausnehmungen durch Abschnitte des TĂŒrabstellers gebildet werden, die eine geringere Höhe aufweisen als der TĂŒrabsteller selbst. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass die Wahrscheinlichkeit fĂŒr ein Verkanten des TĂŒrabstellers verringert ist.In a further embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the door rack has at least one, preferably two recesses, which at least partially surround the web or the webs of the inner door. This leads to an improvement of the leadership of the door compartment on the webs or on the webs. It is particularly advantageous that the recesses are formed by sections of the door compartment, which have a smaller height than the door rack itself. This has the advantage that the probability of tilting the door compartment is reduced.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass beispielsweise zwischen den Stegen wenigstens ein weiteres FĂŒhrungsmittel, vorzugsweise wenigstens eine Nut, zur FĂŒhrung des TĂŒrabstellers vorgesehen ist und/oder dass die ersten Mittel an oder in den FĂŒhrungsmitteln, insbesondere an oder in der Nut angeordnet sind. Die Anordnung eines weiteren FĂŒhrungsmittels kann im Falle von einem Steg oder auch im Falle von mehreren Stegen zum Einsatz kommen.In a further embodiment of the invention it is provided that, for example, between the webs at least one further guide means, preferably at least one groove is provided for guiding the door compartment and / or that the first means arranged on or in the guide means, in particular on or in the groove are. The arrangement of a further guide means can be used in the case of a web or in the case of multiple webs.

Denkbar ist es beispielsweise, an der TĂŒrinnenseite eine vertikale FĂŒhrungsnut anzuordnen, in der ein Vorsprung des TĂŒrabstellers lĂ€uft. Auch die umgekehrte Anordnung ist denkbar, die darin besteht, dass das FĂŒhrungsmittel an der InnentĂŒr durch einen Vorsprung gebildet wird, der in einer Nut des TĂŒrabstellers lĂ€uft.It is conceivable, for example, to arrange a vertical guide groove on the inside of the door, in which a projection of the door compartment runs. The reverse arrangement is conceivable, which consists in that the guide means is formed on the inner door by a projection which runs in a groove of the door compartment.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass die ersten und zweiten Mittel derart ausgefĂŒhrt sind, dass die Arretierung des TĂŒrabstellers durch ein Anheben des TĂŒrabstellers selbsttĂ€tig gelöst wird.In a further embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the first and second means are designed such that the locking of the door compartment is released automatically by lifting the door compartment.

Die Erfindung betrifft schließlich ein KĂŒhl- und/oder GefriergerĂ€t mit wenigstens einem gekĂŒhlten Innenraum, der durch zumindest eine TĂŒr verschließbar ist, wobei die TĂŒr nach einem der AnsprĂŒche 1 bis 9 ausgefĂŒhrt ist.Finally, the invention relates to a refrigerator and / or freezer with at least one refrigerated interior, which can be closed by at least one door, wherein the door is designed according to one of claims 1 to 9.

Weitere Einzelheiten und Vorteile der Erfindung werden anhand eines in der Zeichnung dargestellten AusfĂŒhrungsbeispiels nĂ€her beschrieben.Further details and advantages of the invention will be described with reference to an embodiment shown in the drawing.

Figur 1 zeigt in einer perspektivischen Ansicht einen TĂŒrabsteller 10, der an zwei vertikal verlaufenden, und in Breitenrichtung voneinander beabstandeten Stegen 20 arretiert und gefĂŒhrt ist. Auf der einander zugewandten Innenseite der Stege 20 befinden sich Noppen 22, die in vertikaler Richtung, d. h. in Verstellrichtung des TĂŒrabstellers 10 voneinander beabstandet sind. Diese Noppen 22 der InnentĂŒr ĂŒbernehmen sowohl die FĂŒhrungen der Höhenverstellung des TĂŒrabstellers 10 als auch die Rastpositionen in Höhenrichtung. Durch im Raster an der InnentĂŒr geformte Noppen 22 ist eine variable Höhenverstellung der TĂŒrabsteller 10 möglich. FIG. 1 shows in a perspective view of a door racks 10, which is locked and guided on two vertically extending, and spaced apart in the width direction webs 20. On the mutually facing inner side of the webs 20 are nubs 22, which are spaced apart in the vertical direction, ie in the adjustment of the door compartment 10. These knobs 22 of the inner door take over both the guides of the height adjustment of the door compartment 10 and the locking positions in the vertical direction. By shaped in the grid on the inner door knobs 22 a variable height adjustment of the door racks 10 is possible.

Die in Figur 1 dargestellte Anordnung der Noppen 22 ist exemplarisch. GrundsĂ€tzlich können die Noppen 22 auch an anderer Stelle, beispielsweise an der Außenseite der Stege 20 angeordnet sein.In the FIG. 1 illustrated arrangement of the knobs 22 is exemplary. In principle, the nubs 22 can also be arranged at a different location, for example on the outside of the webs 20.

Diese Ausgestaltung der Erfindung bringt den Vorteil mit sich, dass keine zusĂ€tzlichen FĂŒhrungsleisten oder andere Anbauteile erforderlich sind, um einerseits eine Höhenverstellung des TĂŒrabstellers zu ermöglichen und andererseits eine FĂŒhrung und Sicherung des TĂŒrabstellers 10 gegen Kippen oder Herabfallen zu bilden.This embodiment of the invention has the advantage that no additional guide rails or other attachments are required to enable one hand, a height adjustment of the door compartment and on the other hand to form a guide and securing the door compartment 10 against tipping or falling.

Wie dies aus Figur 2 hervorgeht, besitzt der TĂŒrabsteller 10 eine seitliche, vertikal verlaufende Nut 12, deren Breite so ausgestaltet ist, dass die Noppen 22 der Stege 20 in der Nut 12 aufgenommen werden können. Der TĂŒrabsteller 10 hintergreift somit mit einer der Nutwandungen 12 die Noppen 22 der Stege 20.Like this FIG. 2 As can be seen, the door rack 10 has a lateral, vertically extending groove 12, whose width is designed so that the knobs 22 of the webs 20 can be received in the groove 12. The door racks 10 thus engages behind one of the groove walls 12, the knobs 22 of the webs 20th

Dies ermöglicht ein Verstellen des TĂŒrabstellers 10 in der vertikalen Richtung.This allows adjustment of the door compartment 10 in the vertical direction.

Die Noppen 22 der Stege 20 bilden in dem hier dargestellten AusfĂŒhrungsbeispiel die ersten Mittel zur Arretierung der TĂŒrabsteller.The nubs 22 of the webs 20 form in the embodiment shown here, the first means for locking the door racks.

Die TĂŒrabsteller 10 selbst weisen zweite Mittel auf, die mit den ersten Mitteln der Stege zusammenwirken, um die gewĂŒnschte Arretierung in Höhenrichtung zu erreichen.The door racks 10 themselves have second means, which cooperate with the first means of the webs to achieve the desired locking in the height direction.

Vorzugsweise wird die Arretierung durch ein bewegliches Teil bewirkt, das sich auf den Noppen 22 abstĂŒtzt. Dieses bewegliche Teil bildet die erfindungsgemĂ€ĂŸen zweiten Mittel, die mit den ersten Mitteln zusammenwirken.Preferably, the locking is effected by a movable part which is supported on the knobs 22. This movable part forms the second means according to the invention, which cooperate with the first means.

Dieses bewegliche Teil wird im einfachsten Fall direkt an den TĂŒrabsteller 10 angespritzt. Es kann jedoch auch als separates Element zur Arretierung eingesetzt werden.This moving part is molded in the simplest case directly to the door rack 10. However, it can also be used as a separate element for locking.

Figur 2 zeigt einen TĂŒrabsteller mit angespritzter Arretierungslasche 40, die im Arretierungszustand, wie aus Figur 2, rechte Darstellung ersichtlich, oben auf einer Noppe 22 aufliegt und auf diese Weise den TĂŒrabsteller 10 hĂ€lt. FIG. 2 shows a door racks with molded locking tab 40, the Arretierungszustand, as in FIG. 2 , right representation visible, rests on top of a knob 22 and holds the door rack 10 in this way.

Beim Verstellvorgang wird ĂŒblicherweise der TĂŒrabsteller leicht angehoben und die Arretierungslasche 40 außer Eingriff gebracht, d. h. so verstellt, dass sie nicht mehr auf den Noppen 22 aufliegt. Der TĂŒrabsteller 10 kann dann vertikal verstellt werden. Nach dem Verstellvorgang wird die Arretierungslasche 40 manuell oder z. B. durch eine Feder oder dergleichen wieder in die Eingriffsposition mit den Noppen 22 gebracht. Dadurch ist der TĂŒrabsteller in Höhenposition fixiert.During the adjustment process, the door rack is usually lifted slightly and the locking tab 40 is disengaged, d. H. adjusted so that it no longer rests on the studs 22. The door rack 10 can then be adjusted vertically. After the adjustment, the locking tab 40 is manually or z. B. brought by a spring or the like back into the engaged position with the knobs 22. As a result, the door rack is fixed in height position.

Wie oben ausgefĂŒhrt, ist es nicht zwingend erforderlich, die zweiten Mittel durch ein mit dem TĂŒrabsteller 10 einteilig ausgefĂŒhrtes Element, wie die in Figur 2 ersichtliche Lasche auszubilden. GrundsĂ€tzlich ist es ebenfalls denkbar, ein Zusatzteil, wie beispielsweise einen Schieber oder einen Drehhebel zu verwenden, der mit dem TĂŒrabsteller 10 in Verbindung steht und der sich im arretierten Zustand auf den Noppen 22 abstĂŒtzt.As stated above, it is not absolutely necessary, the second means by an integral with the door racks 10 element, as in FIG. 2 form visible tab. In principle, it is also conceivable to use an additional part, such as a slider or a rotary lever, which is in communication with the door racks 10 and which is supported in the locked state on the knobs 22.

Figur 3 zeigt in einer schematischen Seitenansicht einen Schieber 42, der vertikal zur Ebene der TĂŒrinnenseite in Pfeilrichtung bewegbar ist und je nach Position eine vertikale Verstellung des TĂŒrabstellers 10 ermöglicht oder verhindert. FIG. 3 shows a schematic side view of a slider 42 which is vertically movable in the direction of the arrow to the plane of the inside of the door and depending on the position allows vertical adjustment of the door compartment 10 or prevented.

Figur 4 zeigt eine Anordnung mit einem Drehhebel 44 in der Verstellposition (linke Darstellung) und in der Arretierungsposition (rechte Darstellung). Der Drehhebel ist um eine zur Ebene der TĂŒrinnenseite senkrecht verlaufende Achse verdrehbar und weist einen Arretierungsabschnitt auf, der in der Arretierungsposition oben auf den Noppen 22 aufliegt, wie dies aus Figur 4, rechte Darstellung hervorgeht. In dieser Position wird der TĂŒrabsteller dementsprechend in seiner vertikalen Position fixiert. FIG. 4 shows an arrangement with a rotary lever 44 in the adjustment position (left view) and in the locking position (right view). The rotary lever is rotatable about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the inside of the door axis and has a locking portion which rests in the locking position on top of the studs 22, as is apparent from FIG. 4 , right-hand illustration emerges. In this position, the door rack is accordingly fixed in its vertical position.

Bei entsprechender Abstimmung der InnentĂŒrgeometrie und der TĂŒrstellereinhĂ€ngung kann in bzw. an ein- und derselben TĂŒr neben den höhenverstellbaren Absteliern gemĂ€ĂŸ der vorliegenden Erfindung auch ein StandardtĂŒrabsteller eingehĂ€ngt werden, der zur Höhenverstellung ein- und ausgehĂ€ngt werden muss. Eine solche Ausgestaltung bietet die Möglichkeit, in ein- und derselben TĂŒr differenzierte bzw. gemischte Ausstattungen bezĂŒglich der Höhenverstellung anzubieten.With appropriate coordination of the interior door geometry and the TĂŒrstellereinhĂ€ngung can be mounted in one or the same door in addition to the height-adjustable Absteliern according to the present invention, a standard door rack, which must be switched on and off for height adjustment. Such a configuration offers the possibility to offer differentiated or mixed equipment in terms of height adjustment in one and the same door.

So zeigt Figur 5 zwei TĂŒrabsteller, von denen der obere einen StandardtĂŒrabsteller darstellt, der nicht vertikal verschieblich ausgefĂŒhrt ist, sondern zu seiner Höhenverstellung abgenommen werden muss, und als unteren TĂŒrabsteller 10 einen erfindungsgemĂ€ĂŸen TĂŒrabsteller.So shows FIG. 5 two door racks, of which the upper represents a standard door racks, which is not designed to be vertically displaceable, but must be removed to its height adjustment, and as a lower door racks 10 a door rack according to the invention.

Die Bedienung der Höhenverstellung der TĂŒrabsteller wird verbessert, wenn das VerhĂ€ltnis aus FĂŒhrungsbreite zu FĂŒhrungslĂ€nge der TĂŒrabsteller optimiert wird. Bei gĂ€ngigen Höhenverstellungen kann es aufgrund eines ungĂŒnstigen GeometrieverhĂ€ltnisses (Breite/Höhe der FĂŒhrung) bei einem Verstellen des TĂŒrabstellers zu einem Verkanten kommen.The operation of the height adjustment of the door racks is improved when the ratio of the guide width to the guide length of the door racks is optimized. With common height adjustments may occur due to an unfavorable geometry ratio (width / height of the guide) in an adjustment of the door compartment to tilting.

Um diesen Nachteil zu beheben, kann vorgesehen sein, dass die FĂŒhrung des TĂŒrabstellers durch eine vergleichsweise schmale Rippe bzw. Nut realisiert wird.To remedy this disadvantage, it can be provided that the leadership of the door compartment is realized by a comparatively narrow rib or groove.

Figur 6 zeigt beidseitig an dem TĂŒrabsteller 10 einteilig mit diesem ausgefĂŒhrte Ausnehmungen, die im Querschnittteil kreisförmig ausgefĂŒhrt sein können. Diese Ausnehmungen 16 können die Stege 20 zumindest teilweise, und in dem hier dargestellten AusfĂŒhrungsbeispiel frontseitig und an den Seitenflanken umgreifen und dienen somit als weitere FĂŒhrung. Die Stege 20 der InnentĂŒr haben dann eine Doppelfunktion, d. h. sie dienen als FĂŒhrung der TĂŒrabsteller 10 und als Dichtlabyrinth. Durch diese optimierte FĂŒhrung der TĂŒrabsteller 10 sind geringe RasterabstĂ€nde ohne schiefstehende Absteller 10 möglich. FIG. 6 shows on both sides of the door racks 10 in one piece with this running recesses, which can be made circular in cross-section part. These recesses 16 may surround the webs 20 at least partially, and in the embodiment shown here at the front and on the side edges and thus serve as a further guide. The webs 20 of the inner door then have a double function, ie they serve as a guide of the door racks 10 and as a sealing labyrinth. Due to this optimized guidance of the door racks 10, small grid spacings are possible without skewed shelves 10.

Die FĂŒhrung der TĂŒrabsteller 10 kann weiter dadurch verbessert werden, dass beispielsweise eine FĂŒhrungsnut auf der Innenseite der TĂŒr angeordnet ist, in der ein Vorsprung des TĂŒrabstellers 10 lĂ€uft. Eine solche Ausgestaltung ist aus Figur 7 ersichtlich. Hier verlĂ€uft in einem Bereich zwischen den beiden Stegen 20 eine vorzugsweise mittig angeordnete FĂŒhrungsnut 50, die vertikal angeordnet ist, und in der ein Vorsprung des TĂŒrabstellers 10 lĂ€uft.The leadership of the door racks 10 can be further improved by, for example, that a guide groove is arranged on the inside of the door, in which a projection of the door compartment 10 runs. Such an embodiment is made FIG. 7 seen. Here, in a region between the two webs 20, a preferably centrally arranged guide groove 50, which is arranged vertically, and in which a projection of the door compartment 10 runs.

Wie ausgefĂŒhrt, ist die Ausgestaltung der ersten und zweiten Mittel weitgehend beliebig, so lange sichergestellt ist, dass durch deren Zusammenwirken eine Fixierung des TĂŒrabstellers 10 in vertikaler Position erreicht wird. Anstatt der in den obigen AusfĂŒhrungsbeispielen dargestellten Noppen 22 der Stege 20 kann auch ein durchgehender Steg 20 verwendet werden, der Vertiefungen zur Fixierung fĂŒr die Höhenverstellung aufweist. Dies weist den Vorteil auf, dass ein optisch durchgĂ€ngiges Profil bereitgestellt werden kann. Die Vertiefungen zum Zwecke der Verrastung können an dem Steg 20 oder auch am Nutgrund oder auch an der FlĂ€che der InnentĂŒr angeordnet sein.As stated, the configuration of the first and second means is largely arbitrary, as long as it is ensured that by the interaction of a fixation the door compartment 10 is achieved in a vertical position. Instead of the nubs 22 of the webs 20 shown in the above embodiments, a continuous web 20 may be used, which has recesses for fixing the height adjustment. This has the advantage that an optically continuous profile can be provided. The recesses for the purpose of locking can be arranged on the web 20 or on the groove base or on the surface of the inner door.

Figur 8 zeigt eine solche AusfĂŒhrungsform, bei der die Stege 20 keine VorsprĂŒnge, sondern auf deren RĂŒckseite oder auf deren zueinander gewandte Seitenvertiefungen aufweist, in die VorsprĂŒnge der TĂŒrabsteller bzw. deren zweite Mittel eingreifen. FIG. 8 shows such an embodiment in which the webs 20 has no projections, but on the back or on their mutually facing side depressions, engage in the projections of the door racks or their second means.

Neben den oben dargestellten Möglichkeiten der AusfĂŒhrungen der zweiten Mittel ist es auch denkbar, die Fixierung der TĂŒrabsteller 10 durch eine eine Klemmkraft ausĂŒbende Einrichtung 46 zu bilden.In addition to the above-described possibilities of the embodiments of the second means, it is also conceivable to form the fixation of the door racks 10 by means of a clamping force applying means 46.

Denkbar ist die Verwendung eines Klemmkeils oder einer Klemmrolle oder dergleichen, die ĂŒber eine schiefe Ebene die Fixierung der TĂŒrabsteller herbeifĂŒhren. Die Klemmung kann entweder auf den Steg 20 oder eine Nut der InnentĂŒr erfolgen. Der Vorteil einer Klemmeinrichtung des TĂŒrabstellers 10 auf der Innenseite der TĂŒr bietet eine spielfreie Befestigung und bringt den Vorteil mit sich, dass die Klemmkraft proportional mit der Beladung zunimmt. Die Funktion der Klemmung kann auch bei der Noppengeometrie oder anderen Geometrien zur Fixierung des TĂŒrabstellers angewendet werden.It is conceivable to use a clamping wedge or a pinch roller or the like, which bring about the fixing of the door racks over an inclined plane. The clamping can be done either on the web 20 or a groove of the inner door. The advantage of a clamping device of the door compartment 10 on the inside of the door provides a backlash-free attachment and has the advantage that the clamping force increases proportionally with the load. The function of the clamping can also be applied to the knob geometry or other geometries for fixing the door compartment.

Figur 9 zeigt eine AusfĂŒhrung mit einem Klemmkeil 46. FIG. 9 shows an embodiment with a clamping wedge 46th

Der Klemmkeil 46 ist relativ zu dem TĂŒrabsteller 10 bewegbar und wird beim Anheben des TĂŒrabstellers 10 gelöst und ĂŒber die schrĂ€ge FlĂ€che des TĂŒrabstellers 10 zurĂŒckgezogen. Nach dem Herausziehen des Klemmkeils 46 aus der Rastvertiefung 24 des Steges 20 kann der TĂŒrabsteller in der Höhe verstellt werden. Zur Fixierung des TĂŒrabstellers muss der Klemmkeil 46 manuell in die Rastvertiefung geschoben werden. Dieser Zustand ist aus Figur 9 ersichtlich.The clamping wedge 46 is movable relative to the door rack 10 and is released when lifting the door compartment 10 and pulled back over the inclined surface of the door compartment 10. After pulling out of the clamping wedge 46 from the locking recess 24 of the web 20 of the door rack can be adjusted in height. For fixation of the door compartment, the clamping wedge 46 must be manually pushed into the locking recess. This condition is off FIG. 9 seen.

Bei einer entsprechenden Abstimmung der SchrĂ€ge des Klemmkeils 46 ist es möglich, die Klemmkraft so weit zu erhöhen, dass auf Rastvertiefungen 24 verzichtet werden kann. Der TĂŒrabsteller wird dann nur ĂŒber die Haftreibung in Position gehalten. Dies bringt den Vorteil mit sich, dass eine stufenlose Verstellung möglich ist.With a corresponding adjustment of the slope of the clamping wedge 46, it is possible to increase the clamping force so far that can be dispensed with locking recesses 24. The door rack is then held in position only by the static friction. This has the advantage that a stepless adjustment is possible.

In diesem Fall stĂŒtzt sich der Klemmkeil an dem Steg 20 oder an einem sonstigen Teil des InnenbehĂ€lters ab und wird durch den TĂŒrabsteller derart belastet, dass die Reibungskraft den Klemmkeil und damit auch den TĂŒrabsteller in der gewĂŒnschten Position an dem Steg oder an dem InnenbehĂ€lter fixiert.In this case, the clamping wedge is supported on the web 20 or on another part of the inner container and is loaded by the door racks so that the friction force fixes the clamping wedge and thus the door racks in the desired position on the web or on the inner container.

Der Klemmkeil kann zwischen einem Teil des TĂŒrabstellers, das ebenfalls eine AbschrĂ€gung aufweisen kann, und dem Steg oder dem InnenbehĂ€lter angeordnet sein, wie dies aus Figur 9 hervorgeht.The clamping wedge may be arranged between a part of the door compartment, which may also have a chamfer, and the web or the inner container, as is apparent from FIG. 9 evident.

Der Klemmkeil kann beispielsweise entweder durch die in Figur 9 dargestellte Rastvertiefung 24 oder durch das Gewicht des TĂŒrabstellers fixiert werden.The clamping wedge, for example, either by the in FIG. 9 shown latching recess 24 or be fixed by the weight of the door compartment.

Wie aus Figur 9 ersichtlich, kann sich dieses Teil des TĂŒrabstellers sowie der Klemmkeil auf der Seite des Steges oder dergleichen befinden, die zum InnenbehĂ€lter hingewandt und/oder von der eigentlichen AbstellflĂ€che des TĂŒrabstellers abgewandt ist.How out FIG. 9 it can be seen, this part of the door compartment and the clamping wedge can be located on the side of the web or the like, which turned to the inner container and / or facing away from the actual storage area of the door compartment.

Zur Verbesserung der Haftreibung kann der Klemmkeil z. B. als zwei-K-Teil beispielsweise mit einem Gummibelag oder mit einem sonstigen die Reibung erhöhenden Belag versehen werden.To improve the static friction of the clamping wedge z. B. be provided as a two-K part, for example, with a rubber coating or with any other friction-increasing coating.

Um ein Kippen des TĂŒrabstellers zu verhindern, kann vorgesehen sein, dass eine Sperrklinke oder dergleichen, insbesondere eine gefederte Sperrklinke oder dergleichen vorgesehen ist, die auf den TĂŒrabsteller so einwirkt, dass ein Kippen weitgehend oder vollstĂ€ndig verhindert wird. Vorzugsweise ist diese Kippsicherung so ausgefĂŒhrt, dass ein Kippen verhindert wird, wenn der TĂŒrabsteller in seiner Position verstellt wird.To prevent tilting of the door compartment, it can be provided that a pawl or the like, in particular a sprung pawl or the like is provided, which acts on the door racks so that tilting largely or completely prevented. Preferably, this anti-tilt device is designed so that tilting is prevented when the door rack is adjusted in position.
