Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Kleinteilebehälter und dessen Unterbringung in einem Kältegerät, insbesondere einem Haushaltskältegerät.The present invention relates to a small parts container and its placement in a refrigerator, in particular a household refrigerator.

Die meisten Haushaltskühlschränke haben als fest eingebauten Kleinteilebehälter das sogenannte Butterfach. Das Butterfach ist dimensioniert, um darin handelsübliche Butterpäckchen und gegebenenfalls Eier unterzubringen, für die die optimale Lagertemperatur etwas höher ist als die Temperatur, die im überwiegenden Teil des Kühlschrankinnenraums herrscht.Most household refrigerators have built-in small parts container called the butter compartment. The butter compartment is dimensioned to accommodate commercial butter packets and optionally eggs, for which the optimum storage temperature is slightly higher than the temperature prevailing in the majority of the refrigerator interior.

Zahlreiche Benutzer haben das Bedürfnis, außer Butter und Eitern noch andere Arten von Kühlgut in einem Kühlschrank getrennt von anderem Kühlgut zu lagern. In warmen Ländern kann es zum Beispiel zweckmäßig sein, Schokolade in einem Kühlschrank zu lagern, um zu verhindern, dass sie nach längerer Aufbewahrung grau anläuft. Die normalerweise in einem Kühlschrank herrschende Temperatur ist zu niedrig, als dass sich das Aroma der Schokolade beim Verzehr frei entfalten kann. Daher ist auch sie zweckmäßigerweise in einem Butterfach unterzubringen. Eine Schokoladentafel kann in einem herkömmlichen Butterfach nur liegend oder hochkant aufbewahrt werden. In ersterem Fall können Butter oder Eier nur oben auf die Schokolade gestapelt werden und laufen Gefahr, abzurutschen und aus dem Fach herauszufallen; in Hochkantstellung ist die Schokolade selber gefährdet. Auch bei Medikamenten und Kosmetika kann eine Unterbringung im Kühlschrank zweckmäßig sein, wobei eine von Lebensmitteln getrennte Unterbringung wünschenswert ist, um etwa einen Austausch von Duft- und Aromastoffen mit den Lebensmitteln auszuschließen. Eine zu niedrige Lagertemperatur kann außerdem die Anwendbarkeit von Salben, Cremes und dergleichen auf die Haut aufzutragenden Kosmetika und Medikamenten behindern.Numerous users have the need to store other types of refrigerated goods in a refrigerator separate from other refrigerated goods except Butter and Eitern. For example, in warm countries it may be convenient to store chocolate in a refrigerator to prevent it from turning gray after prolonged storage. The temperature normally prevailing in a refrigerator is too low for the aroma of the chocolate to develop freely when ingested. Therefore, it is also convenient to accommodate in a butter compartment. A chocolate bar can only be stored horizontally or vertically in a conventional butter tray. In the former case, butter or eggs can only be stacked on top of the chocolate and run the risk of slipping and falling out of the compartment; in upright position, the chocolate itself is endangered. In the case of medicines and cosmetics, it may also be appropriate to store in the refrigerator, where a separate housing from food is desirable, for example, to exclude an exchange of fragrances and flavorings with the food. In addition, too low a storage temperature may hinder the applicability of ointments, creams and the like to cosmetics and medicaments to be applied to the skin.

Die WO 2005/024318 A1 offenbart einen Kleinteilbehälter gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1, und beschreibt einen als quaderförmiges Fach ausgebildeten Türabsteller mit einem Boden, einer Decke, einer Rückwand und zwei Seitenwänden, wobei an einer oberen Kante der Rückwand eine Befestigungslasche für die Montage des Türabstellers an einer Innenseite einer Kältegerätetür angeformt ist.The WO 2005/024318 A1 discloses a small parts container according to the preamble of claim 1, and describes a trained as a cuboid compartment door racks with a bottom, a ceiling, a rear wall and two side walls, wherein at an upper edge of the rear wall a mounting tab for mounting the door compartment on an inside of a refrigerator door is formed.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist, das Bedürfnis der Benutzer nach geeigneten Unterbringungsmöglichkeiten für Kosmetika, Medikamente, etc. in einem Kältegerät zu befriedigen, ohne jedoch die Brauchbarkeit des Kältegeräts für andere Benutzer einzuschränken, die ein solches Bedürfnis nicht haben.The object of the present invention is to satisfy the need of the user for suitable accommodation facilities for cosmetics, medicines, etc. in a refrigeration appliance, without, however, restricting the usefulness of the refrigeration appliance to other users who do not have such a need.

Die Aufgabe wird zum einen gelöst, indem ein Kleinteilebehälter für ein Kältegerät mit wenigstens zwei zum Öffnen und Schließen des Kleinteilebehälters gegeneinander beweglichen Gehäuseteilen bereitgestellt wird, bei dem ein erstes der Gehäuseteile wenigstens einen auf eine vertikale Wand des Kältegeräts aufsteckbaren Haken aufweist. Dies bietet einem Benutzer, der Bedarf für zusätzlichen abgeteilten Lagerraum hat, die Möglichkeit, den Kleinteilebehälter an einer festen Stelle im Kältegerät zu montieren, wohingegen ein anderer Benutzer den Behälter uneingebaut lässt und somit den Innenraum des Kältegeräts uneingeschränkt anderweitig nutzen kann.The object is achieved on the one hand by providing a small parts container for a refrigeration device with at least two mutually movable housing parts for opening and closing the small parts container, in which a first of the housing parts has at least one attachable to a vertical wall of the refrigerator hook. This provides a user with the need for additional compartmentalized storage space the ability to mount the small parts container at a fixed location in the refrigeration appliance, whereas another user can leave the container uninstalled and thus be able to freely use the interior of the refrigeration appliance in an unrestricted manner.

Der Kleinteilebehälter ist flach quaderförmig, und der Haken ist an einer ersten Breitseite des Kleinteilebehälters angeordnet. Dies ermöglicht eine Platz sparende Anbringung des Kleinteilebehälters in einer flach an der Wand anliegenden Stellung.The small parts container is flat cuboid, and the hook is arranged on a first broad side of the small parts container. This allows a space-saving attachment of the small parts container in a flat against the wall position.

Das erste Gehäuseteil erstreckt sich über drei Schmalseiten des Kleinteilebehälters und bildet so einen Rahmen, in dem das zweite Gehäuseteil schwenkbar gehalten ist.The first housing part extends over three narrow sides of the small parts container and thus forms a frame in which the second housing part is pivotally supported.

Das zweite Gehäuseteil bildet wenigstens einen überwiegenden Teil der zwei Breitseiten sowie eine die zwei Breitseiten verbindende vierte Schmalseite des Kleinteilebehälters. Auf diese Weise bildet das zweite Gehäuseteil eine Art Tasche, die die in dem Behälter untergebrachten Kleinteile hält, mit der Folge, dass beim Öffnen des Behälters die Kleinteile mit dem zweiten Gehäuseteil aus dem vom ersten Gehäuseteil gebildeten Rahmen herausgeschwenkt werden und für einen Benutzer bequem greifbar sind.The second housing part forms at least a predominant part of the two broad sides and a connecting the two broad sides fourth narrow side of the small parts container. In this way, the second housing part forms a kind of bag that holds the small parts accommodated in the container, with the result that when opening the container, the small parts are swung out with the second housing part from the frame formed by the first housing part and comfortable for a user are.

Um ein bequemes Öffnen und Schließen zu ermöglichen, sind die zwei Gehäuseteile des Kleinteilebehälters vorzugsweise schwenkbar verbunden.In order to enable convenient opening and closing, the two housing parts of the small parts container are preferably pivotally connected.

Um eine bequeme Handhabung des Behälters zu ermöglichen, umfasst das zweite Gehäuseteil vorzugsweise eine Wand, die die zweite Breitseite des Kleinteilebehälters vollständig bildet und darüber hinaus noch über eine der vom ersten Gehäuseteil gebildeten Schmalseiten des Kleinteilebehälters übersteht. Dieser überstehende Bereich erleichtert es einem Benutzer, das zweite Gehäuseteil zu greifen und zu schwenken.In order to enable a convenient handling of the container, the second housing part preferably comprises a wall which completely forms the second broad side of the small parts container and, moreover, projects beyond one of the narrow sides of the small parts container formed by the first housing part. This protruding area makes it easier for a user to grasp and pivot the second housing part.

Die Aufgabe wird ferner gelöst durch ein Kältegerät, bei dem ein Kleinteilebehälter der oben beschriebenen Art auf eine vertikale Wand in einem Innenraum des Kältegeräts aufgesteckt ist.The object is further achieved by a refrigeration device in which a small parts container of the type described above is mounted on a vertical wall in an interior of the refrigerator.

Um eine gute Zugänglichkeit des Kleinteilebehälters zu gewährleisten, ist die vertikale Wand vorzugsweise an einer Tür des Kältegeräts angeordnet, so dass sie und der Kleinteilebehälter beim Öffnen der Tür mit bewegt werden und der Kleinteilebehälter in offener Stellung der Tür frei liegt.To ensure good accessibility of the small parts container, the vertical wall is preferably arranged on a door of the refrigerator, so that they and the small parts container when opening the door to be moved and the small parts container in the open position of the door is exposed.

Um in dem Kleinteilebehälter eine etwas höhere Lagertemperatur als im übrigen Innenraum des Kältegeräts zu erreichen, ist der Kleinteilebehälter vorzugsweise einer Innenfläche der Tür eng benachbart angeordnet. Ein Spalt zwischen der vertikalen Wand und einer Innenfläche der Tür ist daher vorzugsweise nicht breiter als für den in den Eingriff des Hakens des Kleinteilebehälters erforderlich, d.h. der Haken füllt den Spalt im Wesentlichen aus.In order to achieve a slightly higher storage temperature in the small parts container than in the remaining interior of the refrigeration device, the small parts container is preferably arranged closely adjacent an inner surface of the door. A gap between the vertical wall and an inner surface of the door is therefore preferably no wider than that required for the engagement of the hook of the small parts container, i. the hook substantially fills the gap.

Um einen Benutzer, der den Kleinteilebehälter nicht gebrauchen will, nicht zu behindern, kann auch die zum Aufstecken des Hakens dienende vertikale Wand entfernbar sein. Vorzugsweise ist sie Teil eines lösbar an der Tür montierten Bügels.In order not to hinder a user who does not want to use the small parts container, and the serving for attaching the hook vertical wall can be removable. Preferably, it is part of a releasably mounted on the door bracket.

Um den Bügel in der Tür aufzuhängen, können Rastkonturen der Tür verwendet werden, die wahlweise für die Montage des Bügels oder eines Türabstellers nutzbar sind.To hang the bracket in the door, locking contours of the door can be used, which can be used optionally for the mounting of the bracket or a door compartment.

Fig. 1 zeigt eine perspektivische Ansicht eines Haushaltskühlschranks mit einem Korpus 1 und einer Tür 2 in offener Stellung. An der Innenfläche der Tür sind benachbart zu ihren seitlichen Rändern zwei vertikale Holme 3 ausgeformt. Die Holme 3 tragen in an sich bekannter Weise an ihren einander zugewandten Flanken Paare von sich auf gleicher Höhe gegenüber liegenden Nocken, auf denen Einbauelemente der Tür abgestützt sind. Zu diesen Einbauelementen gehören in an sich bekannter Weise Türabsteller 4 in Form von lang gestreckten, nach oben offenen Kästen. Auch ein Butterfach 5 kann an den Nocken der Holme 3 aufgehängt sein. Ein weiteres derartiges Einbauteil ist ein sich in geringem Abstand von der Türinnenfläche zwischen den zwei Holmen 3 erstreckender Bügel 6 mit einem daran aufgehängten, später noch genauer beschriebenen Kleinteilebehälter 7. Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of a household refrigerator with a body 1 and a door 2 in the open position. On the inner surface of the door two vertical uprights 3 are formed adjacent to their lateral edges. The spars 3 carry in a conventional manner at their mutually facing edges pairs of at the same height opposite cams on which mounting elements of the door are supported. To these installation elements belong in a conventional manner door racks 4 in the form of elongated, open-topped boxes. Also a butter compartment 5 may be suspended from the cams of the spars 3. Another such built-in part is a bracket 6 extending at a small distance from the door inner surface between the two uprights 3 with a small parts container 7 suspended thereon and later described in more detail.

Fig. 2 zeigt ein Detail des Bügels 6 in einer vergrößerten Ansicht. Zu sehen ist ein Teil eines eine langgestreckte vertikale Wand bildenden Mittelstücks 8 sowie eine seitlich an das Mittelstück 8 anschließende Trägerlasche 9 des Bügels 6. Eine in der Trägerlasche 9 geformte, nach unten offene Aussparung 10 ist vorgesehen, um sie von oben auf eine der Nocken des linken Holms 3 der Tür 2 aufzustecken. An einer der Türinnenfläche zugewandten Seite des Mittelstücks 8 ist eine Rippe 11 geformt, die die Biegesteifigkeit des Mittelstücks 8 erhöht und sicherstellt, dass ein Spalt zwischen der Türinnenfläche und dem Mittelstück 8 oberhalb der Rippe 11 nie schmaler werden kann als die Rippe 11 selbst. Fig. 2 shows a detail of the bracket 6 in an enlarged view. To see is a part of an elongated vertical wall forming center piece 8 and a laterally adjoining the center piece 8 carrier tab 9 of the bracket 6. A formed in the carrier tab 9, downwardly open recess 10 is provided to them from above on one of the cams of the left spar 3 of the door 2 aufzustecken. On a side of the center piece 8 facing the inside of the door, a rib 11 is formed which increases the flexural rigidity of the center piece 8 and ensures that a gap between the door inner surface and the center piece 8 above the rib 11 can never become narrower than the rib 11 itself.

Fig. 3 zeigt einen Schnitt durch ein Stück der Tür 2 mit dem rechten Holm 3, durch den daran aufgehängten Bügel 6 und den Kleinteilebehälter 7. Der Kleinteilebehälter 7 besteht aus zwei jeweils einteilig aus Kunststoff spritzgeformten Gehäuseteilen, einem Rahmen 12 und einer Klappe 13. Der Rahmen 12 bildet zwei in Fig. 3 im Schnitt gezeigte vertikale Schmalseiten 14 des Behälters 7 und eine in Fig. 3 nicht sichtbare, die Schmalseiten 14 verbindende Oberseite 15 (siehe Fig. 4). Um die Steifigkeit des Rahmens 12 zu erhöhen, umfasst dieser ferner einen einen Teil der Gehäuserückseite bildenden, an die Oberseite 15 angrenzenden Steg 16 sowie zwei den Steg 16 mit der Schmalseite 14 verbindende dreieckige Zwickel 17. Jeweils an den Ecken der Oberseite 15 sind zwei zur Türinnenseite hin überstehende Haken 18 angeformt. Vertikale Schenkel dieser Haken 18 greifen in den von der Rippe 1 freigehaltenen Spalt 19 (siehe Fig. 3) zwischen dem Mittelstück 8 und der Türinnenfläche ein und verankern so den Behälter 7 an dem Bügel 6. Fig. 3 shows a section through a piece of the door 2 with the right handlebar 3, through the suspended bracket 6 and the small parts container 7. The small parts container 7 consists of two injection molded plastic parts in one piece, a frame 12 and a flap 13. The frame 12th makes two in Fig. 3 in vertical section shown Narrow sides 14 of the container 7 and a in Fig. 3 invisible, the narrow sides 14 connecting top 15 (see Fig. 4 ). To increase the rigidity of the frame 12, this further comprises a part of the rear side forming, adjacent to the top 15 web 16 and two connecting the web 16 with the narrow side 14 triangular gusset 17. Each at the corners of the top 15 are two to Door inside projecting hook 18 formed. Vertical legs of these hooks 18 engage in the gap 19 kept clear of the rib 1 (see FIG Fig. 3 ) between the middle piece 8 and the inner door surface and thus anchor the container 7 on the bracket. 6

Die Klappe 13 umfasst eine Frontplatte 20, die eine dem Innenraum des Kühlschranks zugewandte Vorderseite des Kleinteilebehälters 7 bildet, eine Unterseite 21, die über ein gleichmäßig gekrümmtes Zwischenstück in die Frontplatte 20 übergeht, eine Rückwand 22, die zusammen mit dem Steg 16 und dem Zwickel 17 die Rückseite des Behälters 7 bildet, sowie Seitenstücke 23, die Frontplatte 20 und Rückwand 22 miteinander verbinden und in Löcher 24 der Schmalseiten 14 eingreifende Achszapfen 25 tragen.The flap 13 comprises a front plate 20, which forms a front of the small parts container 7 facing the interior of the refrigerator, a lower side 21, which merges into the front plate 20 via a uniformly curved intermediate piece, a rear wall 22 which together with the web 16 and the gusset 17, the back of the container 7 forms, and side pieces 23, the front panel 20 and rear wall 22 connect to each other and carry in holes 24 of the narrow sides 14 engaging journal 25.

Die Frontplatte 20 und die Unterseite 21 weisen über die Seitenstücke 23 an beiden Seiten hin ausweichende Randstreifen 26 auf. Die Schwenkbewegungsfreiheit der Klappe 13 ist dadurch begrenzt, dass in aufgeschwenkter Stellung der Randstreifen 26 der Unterseite 21 gegen die Unterkanten der Schmalseiten 14 anschlägt. So ist sichergestellt, dass auch wenn sich der Kleinteilebehälter 7 versehentlich öffnet, der Inhalt nicht herausfallen kann.The front plate 20 and the bottom 21 have on the side pieces 23 on both sides evasive edge strips 26. The pivoting freedom of the flap 13 is limited by the fact that in the pivoted position of the edge strip 26 of the bottom 21 abuts against the lower edges of the narrow sides 14. This ensures that even if the small parts container 7 accidentally opens, the content can not fall out.

In geschlossener Stellung reicht ein oberer Randstreifen 27 der Frontplatte 20 über die Oberseite 15 des Rahmens 12 hinaus; dieser Randstreifen 27 ist für einen Benutzer leicht zu greifen, um die Klappe 13 zu öffnen.In the closed position, an upper edge strip 27 of the front panel 20 extends beyond the upper side 15 of the frame 12; this edge strip 27 is easy for a user to access to open the flap 13.

Fig. 5 zeigt eine zweite Ausgestaltung des Kleinteilebehälters 7. Die Form des Rahmens 12' ist im Wesentlichen die gleiche wie im Falle der Ausgestaltung der Fig. 4; ein Unterschied liegt lediglich darin, dass die Orientierung des Rahmens um 90° gedreht ist, so dass er hier eine Oberseite 14', eine Unterseite 14" sowie eine vertikale Schmalseite 15' sowie eine sich entlang der Schmalseite 15' erstreckenden Steg 16' bildet. Die Haken 18 erstrecken sich wiederum von der Oberseite 14' aus rechtwinklig nach unten. Bei der Klappe 13' sind die Randstreifen 26 entfallen, so dass sie die Schwenkbewegungsfreiheit der Klappe 13' um ihre - nun vertikal verlaufende, von Löchern 24' in Ober- und Unterseite 14', 14" festgelegte Achse nicht einschränken. Eingeschränkt ist die Bewegungsfreiheit der Klappe 13' im montierten Zustand jedoch dadurch, dass ein Teil ihrer Rückwand 22' am Bügel 6 anliegt. Daher kann sich die Klappe 13' nicht öffnen, wenn der Behälter 7 aufgehängt ist, und es können keine Teile herausfallen. Wenn der Behälter 7 jedoch vom Bügel 6 abgehängt ist, kann die Klappe 13' geöffnet und der Inhalt entnommen werden. Da in dieser Stellung ein Benutzer die Klappe bequem zwischen Frontplatte 20' und Rückwand 22' fassen kann, kann der Behälter leicht geöffnet werden, auch wenn die Frontplatte 20' keinen zum Randstreifen 27 der Ausgestaltung der Fig. 4 homologen, über die Schmalseite 15' überstehenden Randstreifen aufweist. Fig. 5 shows a second embodiment of the small parts container 7. The shape of the frame 12 'is substantially the same as in the case of the embodiment of Fig. 4 ; the only difference is that the orientation of the frame is rotated by 90 ° so that it forms a top 14 ', a bottom 14 "and a vertical narrow side 15' and a web 16 'extending along the narrow side 15'. The hooks 18 in turn extend at right angles from the upper side 14 ', and in the case of the flap 13', the edge strips 26 are omitted so that they are free from pivoting movement the flap 13 'to their - now vertically extending, of holes 24' in the top and bottom 14 ', 14 "fixed axis not restricted.Restricted, the freedom of movement of the flap 13' in the assembled state, however, characterized in that a part of its rear wall 22nd Therefore, the flap 13 'can not open when the container 7 is suspended and no parts can fall out, but when the container 7 is suspended from the bracket 6, the flap 13' can be opened and the contents Since in this position a user can comfortably grasp the flap between the front panel 20 'and the rear wall 22', the container can be easily opened, even if the front panel 20 'does not touch the edge strip 27 of the embodiment Fig. 4 homologous, over the narrow side 15 'protruding edge strips.

Eine in Fig. 6 gezeigte Variante der Klappe 13' hat einen halbzylindrisch runden Rücken 21', der Frontplatte 20' und Rückwand 22' verbindet und dessen Achse mit der Schwenkachse der Klappe 13' zusammenfällt. Diese Klappe 13' lässt sich auch öffnen, wenn der Kleinteilebehälter am Bügel 6 hängt.An in Fig. 6 shown variant of the flap 13 'has a semi-cylindrical round back 21', the front panel 20 'and rear wall 22' connects and whose axis coincides with the pivot axis of the flap 13 '. This flap 13 'can also be opened when the small parts container hangs on the bracket 6.
