Definitions
- Refrigeration unit housing with pressure compensation passage
- the present invention relates to a refrigerator, in particular a household refrigerator with a heat-insulating housing, which is provided with a pressure equalization passage, which connects an interior of the refrigerator with the environment. If the door of a refrigeration device has been open and then tightly closed, any hot air that has penetrated inside the device cools down. This would lead to a negative pressure in the device and make it difficult to re-open the door if not through such a pressure equalization passage outside air could flow into the device.
- a refrigerator with pressure equalization passage is e.g. from DE 10 2006 040 381 A1.
- the pressure equalization passage of this known device comprises two intermeshing pipe sections, one end of which is anchored by a bayonet coupling in an outer panel or an inner panel of the door.
- the pipe pieces each carry an apron, the foam side rests against the outer panel or the inner plate, which also engages the bayonet coupling of the pipe section to close an opening through which the pipe section extends, foam-tight.
- the two pipe sections are deflected from one to the outer panel or the inner panel perpendicular orientation when telescoping. This may result in the skirts no longer resting tightly over their entire circumference so that foam can pass through the skirts and exit at the openings.
- Object of the present invention is to provide a housing for a refrigeration device with a pressure equalization passage, which has a higher tolerance with respect to the placement of the two intermeshing pipe sections receiving openings in an outer skin of a wall of the housing.
- the object is achieved by extending in a refrigerator housing with a foam between a first and a second outer skin wall through which extends a pressure equalization passage with two intermeshing pipe sections, one of which first tube piece is anchored to the first outer skin of the wall and carries a foam side adjacent to the first outer skin skirt, the first piece of pipe further carries a voltage applied to the second outer skin skirt and the second piece of pipe passes through an opening of the second outer skin radially play and in the first piece of pipe intervenes.
- the play-based engagement allows the compensation of positional deviations of the openings of the first and second outer skin in relation to each other; so long as the positional deviation does not become so great that the opening of the second outer skin is partly outside the limits defined by the abutting skirt, the foam-tightness of the construction can be ensured.
- At least one foam passage opening may be formed in the first tube piece, which opens onto a cavity between the first and the second tube piece. In the cavity penetrating foam ensured by its bonding an adhesion of the two pipe pieces together.
- the intermeshing pipe pieces preferably form a labyrinth seal.
- the first tube piece may comprise at least one inner and one outer sleeve defining an annular groove open towards the second outer skin into which the second tube piece engages.
- the second tube piece can be pushed onto the inner sleeve radially without play, so that the close contact between the tube pieces precludes the penetration of foam into the pressure equalization passage.
- the position of the second pipe section on the second outer skin is predetermined by the position of the first pipe section.
- the second tube piece may also be desirable to be able to freely move the second tube piece on the second outer skin within limits.
- the second tube piece surrounds the inner sleeve radially play. Theoretically, although fluid could then penetrate from the foam passage opening along the interstices between the pipe sections to the interior of the pressure equalization passage, this can be prevented in practice, in which the passages in width and length so be sized so that penetrating foam sets in before it reaches the interior of the pressure equalization passage.
- a connected to the second piece of pipe, on the second outer skin outboard flange serves as a stop for the positioning of the second tube piece and can hide the opening of the second outer skin, through which the second tube piece extends.
- the second pipe section may have at least one projecting beyond the second outer skin outwardly interrupted in the circumferential direction projection. If the second outer skin is the outer panel of the door of a built-in refrigerator, such a projection can prevent close contact between the second tube piece and one of the door in a manner known per se vorgeblendeten furniture plate, which could complicate the flow of air through the pressure equalization passage.
- the pressure equalization passageway passes through the door, it is preferably placed so as to hit the inside of the door at the edge of a body engaging projection of the door. At this point, a blockage of the pressure equalization passage is excluded by closely behind refrigerated goods or an advanced drawer inside the refrigerator, and over the pressure equalization passage incoming air can easily spread over a running in both directions of the door gap between the door and carcass.
- the pressure equalization passage is formed in a sloping to the inside of the refrigerator door inclined surface, which preferably at least approximately opposite to the bottom of the heat-insulating housing to form an air passage gap to lead through the pressure equalization passage of incoming air into the interior of the device ,
- a second side of the gap In order not to weaken the insulation of the device unnecessarily, preferably forms a complementary to the inclined surface of the body inclined surface of the door, a second side of the gap.
- a recess is preferably formed on the inclined surface of the inside of the door into which the pressure equalization passage opens.
- FIG. 1 shows a partial section through the door and body of a refrigeration appliance housing according to the invention along a vertical sectional plane running in the depth direction of the housing;
- Fig. 2 is a partial view of the inside of the door of the refrigerator and
- Fig. 3 is a partial section of the refrigerator body along a horizontal sectional plane.
- Fig. 1 shows a vertical section through the lower edge region of a door 1 and the front portion of the bottom of a body 2 of a refrigerator or freezer.
- a thermoformed plastic inner panel 3 and an outer panel 4 are connected at the top and bottom of the door 1 each by a molded plastic end profile 5.
- a flexible sealing profile 6 is anchored in a circumferential groove 7 along the edge of the inner plate 3 and conceals a connection between the inner plate 3 and the end profile 5.
- a large part of the inner plate 3 is filled by a projection 8 engaging in the body 2.
- a pressure equalization passage 9 extends through the door 1 immediately below the projection 8.
- the pressure equalization passage 9 is composed essentially of two pipe sections 10, 1 1.
- the first pipe section 10 is anchored to an opening 12 of the inner panel 3 by a bayonet coupling.
- the pipe section 10 at its inner end a plurality of intermittently over the circumference of a cylindrical inner sleeve 13 of the pipe section 10 extending radially projecting webs 14, and the opening 12 has a non-circular shape, through which in a first orientation the inner End can pass with the webs 14, while in a second orientation the Webs 14 and a circumferential elastic sealing skirt 15 of the pipe section 10, the edges of the opening 12 pinch.
- a grid 16 is attached or screwed, which clamps together with a diametrically extending through the inner sleeve 13 web 17 an elastic membrane 18 of substantially elliptical shape.
- the edges of the membrane 18 abut against the inner surface of the inner sleeve 13 and thus prevent the outflow of cold air from the refrigerator to the outside, but can give way in the event of a negative pressure inside the device and allow air to flow from the outside.
- the first tube piece 10 further comprises an outer sleeve 19 which is concentric with the inner sleeve 13 and which, together with the inner sleeve 13, delimits an annular groove 20 which is open toward the outer panel 4.
- the outer sleeve 19 extends into a sealing skirt 21 which, on the foam side, bears against the outer metal sheet 4, surrounding an opening 22 punched out therein.
- the second pipe section 1 1 is inserted from the outside through the opening 22 in the annular groove 20, wherein in the illustration of Fig. 1, a gap 23 and 24 both between the second pipe section 11 and the outer sleeve 19 and between the second pipe section 11th and the inner sleeve 13 of the first pipe section 10 is made.
- the penetration depth of the second pipe section 1 1 in the annular groove 20 is limited by an integrally formed on the second pipe section 1 1 annular flange 25 which bears against the outside of the outer panel 4.
- the radial clearance between the second tube piece 11 on the one hand and the sleeves 13, 19 and the opening 22 on the other hand makes it possible to position the second tube piece 11 on the outer panel 4 with a tolerance of a few millimeters in the radial direction, so that any inaccuracies in the Alignment of the openings 12, 22 of the outer panel 4 and inner panel 3 with respect to each other can be conveniently compensated.
- a plurality of forward projections 28 are formed on a circumferential bead, which is formed on the outside of the door 1 between the second tube piece 11 and the flange 25, a plurality of forward projections 28 are formed. These projections 28 prevent, when the refrigerator is installed with a vorgeblendeten furniture plate, this furniture panel the outer panel 4 can come so close that it blocks the pressure equalization passage 9.
- a frame heater comprises, in a manner known per se, a heating tube 33 through which compressed refrigerant flows on the way to a condenser and which extends on the front side of the body 2 adjacent to the sealing profile 6. Due to its placement near the lower edge of the door 1, the pressure equalization passage 9 receives heat from the heating tube 33, preventing freezing of condensed water in the pressure compensating passage 9.
- Fig. 2 shows a perspective view of the lower part of the door 1, seen from the inside. It can be seen here that a cylindrical recess 31 is formed in an inclined surface 29, which forms a lower edge of engaging in the body 2 projection 8 of the door, at the bottom of the first pipe section 10 is anchored.
- the recess 30 provides a continuous passage with a large free passage cross section through which inflowing air can reach the interior of the refrigerator, even if the inclined surface 29 and a complementary thereto to an inner container 31 (see Fig. 1) of the Body 2 formed inclined surface 32 with a desired for effective isolation, very small distance.
- Fig. 3 shows a horizontal partial section through the refrigerator housing, seen obliquely from below.
- parabola-like curved mem- bran 18 inside the pressure equalization passage 9 and further foam passage openings 26 can be seen on the outer sleeve 19.
