Definitions

  • the invention relates to a refrigeration device, in particular domestic refrigeration appliance, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Refrigerators have a cooling chamber surrounding by a heat-insulated housing, which is cooled by means of an evaporator of a refrigerant circuit. At the respective cooling surfaces of the cold room precipitates condensation, which can be collected in the housing interior and passed through a condensed water line from the housing.
  • the compressor has an upwardly projecting holding part which projects into a corresponding mounting shaft in the condensate collecting container.
  • the mounting shaft is designed as an axially on the outside around the compressor running inside, as well as downwardly open annular groove.
  • the contact area between the condensate collection tank and the compressor should be as large as possible.
  • the size of the contact surface is limited due to the assembly in the generic refrigerator, since the condensate collection container is pushed in the horizontal mounting direction on the compressor.
  • the compressor-shaped bottom of the condensate collection container is therefore designed laterally open in the mounting direction.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a refrigeration device or a condensate collecting container in which the evaporation of collected condensation water is increased.
  • the container bottom of the condensate collecting container is formed with a bottom-side projecting, frame-like circumferential side wall.
  • the side wall therefore limits the circumference of the compressor.
  • a container is provided with a hood-like executed container bottom, which can circumferentially cover the upper portion of the compressor in the circumferential direction.
  • the container bottom together with the side wall closed in the side direction, but open at the bottom cavity, in which the waste heat of the compressor can be largely absorbed.
  • the condensate collection container can be a drip tray in a technically simple design, which can be inexpensively manufactured as a plastic part in the plastic injection molding process.
  • the container bottom together with its side wall can follow the contour of the upper compressor region in a form-fitting manner. In this way, there is a full-surface contact between the container and the compressor, whereby the heat transfer is increased accordingly.
  • Such a form-fitting adapted container thus forms a negative mold to the upper compressor area.
  • the container is arranged largely without movement air in the horizontal direction on the compressor.
  • the container is therefore positively fixed in the horizontal plane on the compressor and only in the vertical direction to release from the compressor. Accordingly, only safety measures must be taken with which an accidental release of the container in the vertical direction can be avoided upwards.
  • Fasteners for holding the container on the compressor can therefore be designed with reduced requirements.
  • the condensate collection container according to the invention is at the same time also more resistant to side forces, such as may occur during compressor assembly or in case of customer service during compressor disassembly.
  • side forces can be absorbed by the circumferential side wall of the condensate collection container, and not only by the fastening element of the container due to the inventive container shape.
  • the inventively designed condensate collection container can be set in the vertical mounting direction on the compressor.
  • the container can be brought into engagement with the compressor without tools.
  • the container on the bottom side a fastening element, such as a latching element, which is engageable with a corresponding holding part of the compressor tool-free engaged.
  • the holding part may be arranged on the upper side of the compressor, in particular at least in the vicinity of a vertex of the compressor top.
  • fastening element is formed directly inside the container bottom.
  • a fastening shaft for the fastening element is formed in the bottom of the condensate collecting container.
  • the mounting shaft is designed for increased dimensional stability in approximately box-shaped with an open towards the compressor side.
  • the mounting shaft projects the compressor-holding part, which is enclosed by the shaft side walls like a frame.
  • the fastener may be dimensionally stable formed within the mounting shaft on a shaft top wall, which is spaced over a predetermined distance from the compressor.
  • the condensate collecting container may have a completely circumferential collecting channel, the frame like the compressor closed sideways moves. Accordingly, the water collection surface located directly on the condenser is increased.
  • the collecting trough may preferably laterally surround the compressor by a height difference vertically below a compressor vertex, whereby the condensed water is arranged around the compressor in a manner favorable for the evaporation.
  • the collecting channel may be bounded internally by the side wall of the container bottom and outwardly by a container outer wall.
  • the inner side wall may be connected via an edge web with the container outer wall, which forms the channel bottom.
  • access openings can be provided in the side or top walls of the fastening shaft.
  • the access opening may preferably be formed in the top wall.
  • FIG. 1 is shown in a schematic partial view of the rear portion of a device housing 1 of a refrigeration device.
  • the housing 1 has in a known manner on the rear wall 3 a merely indicated condenser 5. This is part of a refrigerant circuit and serves to cool the refrigerator refrigerator.
  • the rear wall 3 has a recess 7, in which a compressor 9 of the refrigerant circuit is arranged.
  • a wall projection 11 is integrally formed on the housing inner side of the housing inner wall 3, which forms a condensation channel 13.
  • the condensate channel 13 is fluidly connected via a condensed water line 15 with a condensate collecting container 17, which sits on the compressor 9 on the upper side outside of the housing interior.
  • the container 17 is designed as a plastic shell, which can be produced by plastic injection molding. The condensed water collected in the drainage channel 13 is guided in the defrosting process via the condensed water line 15 into the condensate water tray and evaporated there using the energy released by the compressor 9.
  • the condensate tray 17 is designed to be open at the top.
  • the condensate tray 17 is also formed with a hood-shaped bottom 19, which merges into a frame-like circumferential side wall 21 at the edge. Accordingly, the container bottom 19 of the condensate tray 17 defines with its side wall 21 a bottom-like open dome-like cavity 23, as in the Fig. 2 is shown.
  • the condensate tray 17 covers with its bottom 19 and the side wall 21 cap-like the upper portion of the compressor. 9
  • Fig. 1 shows the condensate tray 17 projects beyond the compressor 9 in the horizontal side direction with a circumferential horizontal edge web 25 which is arranged by a height difference .DELTA.h below a compressor peak S.
  • the edge web 25 connects directly to the side wall 21 and is arranged approximately at the level of a compressor side wall.
  • the horizontal edge web 25 forms a channel bottom of a laterally around the compressor 9 current collecting channel 27 of the condensate tray 17. Sideways outside of the edge web 25 is in a vertically raised outer wall 29 of the condensate tray 17 via.
  • the bottom 19 of the condensate tray 17 is positively adapted together with its side wall 21 of the contour of the upper compressor area. In this way, a large-area contact area between the condensate tray 17 and the reaches the upper compressor area, whereby the released energy of the compressor 9 can be introduced into the condensate pan 17 almost lossless.
  • the condensate tray 17 is shown in isolation. Consequently, the bottom-side edge web 25 extends at the same height in a rectangular manner around the dome-like cavity 23 which is bounded by the bottom and side walls 19, 21 of the condensate tray 17 and concavely curved in the direction of the compressor.
  • the condensate tray 17 is mounted on the upper portion of the compressor 9 in the vertical mounting direction I shown. Due to the bottom-side shape of the condensate tray 17 results in a horizontal plane substantially backlash-free shell seat on the compressor. 9
  • latching elements 31 are provided in order to avoid an unintentional release of the condensate tray 17 in the vertical direction upwards. These intervene in accordance with the Fig. 3 in the mounted state, a retaining clip 33 fastened on the upper side on the compressor 9.
  • the latching elements 31 are in accordance with FIGS Fig. 2 and 3 formed within a mounting shaft 35.
  • the mounting shaft 35 opens centrally at the apex of the concave bottom wall 19 in the dome-shaped cavity 23, as shown in the Fig. 2 is shown.
  • Fig. 3 In the assembled state of Fig. 3 encloses the box-shaped mounting shaft 35 like a hood, the headband 33 of the compressor 9, without affecting the positive engagement between the condensate tray 17 and the compressor top. Like from the Fig. 3 further shows limited the mounting shaft 35 with its four side walls (three of which are in partial section of Fig. 3 shown), the retaining clip 33.
  • the locking elements 31 are integrally formed on a shaft top wall 37, which is spaced over a distance a from the compressor 9.
  • the mounting shaft top wall 37 are according to the Fig. 3 De-molding provided by the injection molding tools in a demolding from the plastic shell 17 are removed by the after a successful Spritgussvorgang. In customer service case the demolding openings in the top wall 37 can be used as a tool access to bring the locking elements 31 out of engagement with the headband 33.
