Definitions
- the present invention relates to a refrigerated goods for a refrigeration appliance, in particular for a household refrigerator, which, without having to be removed from the device and without unloading it, can be adjusted in height.
- a refrigerator in which a refrigerated goods between two levels with the aid of eccentric wheels is adjustable, which are rotatably mounted on side walls of the refrigeration device housing about an axis perpendicular to the side wall. Since the eccentric must find space between a plate of the refrigerated goods and the side walls, they reduce the width of this plate and thus the usable storage space.
- the side wall of the refrigerator must be designed from the outset to mount the eccentric, so that the retrofitting of a height-adjustable refrigerated goods in a refrigerator, which has conventionally on the side walls projecting support ribs for refrigerated goods is not possible.
- a refrigerated goods according to the preamble of claim 1 is for example from the US-A-2006/0097613 known.
- Object of the present invention is to provide a refrigerated goods for a refrigeration appliance or a refrigeration device, in which a simple adjustment of the height of the loaded refrigerated goods carrier is possible, the refrigerated goods is to be retrofitted in a conventional refrigerator.
- At least one of the support bodies is pivotable about an axis parallel to the lateral edge and has at least two footprints at different distances from the axle in a refrigerated goods carrier having a plate and two support bodies extending along a lateral edge of the plate.
- the support body is a strip which extends substantially over the entire length of the lateral edge.
- a bar provides contact surfaces extending substantially over the entire length of the edge, the applicability of the refrigerated goods is largely dependent on the shape of the bearing ribs of the refrigerator; these may extend continuously over the side walls of the device or may be reduced to protrusions at the front and rear edges of the sidewall respectively.
- the support body has at least two edges meeting each other at right angles at one edge, and the contact surfaces are formed on these two flanks.
- the contact surfaces may be recessed in flanks of the support body to at least in the direction parallel to the lateral edges of the plate make a positive connection with support ribs of the refrigeration device housing and so to secure the refrigerated goods in its position in the refrigerator.
- the support body is preferably rectangular in section across its axis with a rounded edge.
- the rounded edge facilitates pivoting of the support body.
- the plate may be associated with an elastic hook which engages around a journal of the support body.
- an axle body is received in mutually aligned bores of the support body and fixed to the plate bearing block.
- the radius of curvature of the rounded edge is preferably at most as large as the distance between the rounded edge and the axis.
- the support body can pivot between its two positions without deforming the hook or the axle body. If the radius of curvature is smaller, the rounded edge can be placed to the axis so that the hook or the axle body is slightly elastically bent during pivoting. Thus, by resisting the hook or the axle of a pivoting movement of the support body, this is secured in the orientation once set.
- the two support bodies are pivotable independently of one another, in order to be able to adjust an oblique position of the plate if required.
- a handle is preferably formed at a front end of each support body.
- Fig. 1 shows a perspective view from the front of a refrigerated goods according to the invention 1, mounted in a body of a household refrigerator.
- the refrigerated goods carrier 1 comprises a plate 2, which extends substantially over the entire width of a storage space of the body between side walls 3. Shown is a frameless plate 2 made of safety glass; it could also find a framed plate or a plate of other material, in particular a wire mesh, use.
- a stop rail 4 made of plastic is attached to prevent direct contact of deposited on the plate 2 refrigerated goods with the rear wall of the body.
- the plate 2 is supported by two along its lateral edges extending support body 5 on horizontal ribs, which are attracted to the side walls 3 of the body and in the view of Fig. 1 are covered by the plate 2 and the support body 5.
- the support bodies 5 are mirror-inverted shaped, elongated plastic strips of substantially rectangular cross-section, which are hinged about an axis parallel to the lateral edges of the plate 2 pivotally mounted on a support bar which is fixed under the plate 2. In Fig. 1 this support bar is hidden by the plate 2 and not visible.
- the support bodies 5 are pivotable between a vertical orientation and a transverse orientation, which in Fig. 1 are shown in each case by the example of the left or the right support body 5. From a front end of the support body 5 projecting, in the illustrated embodiment, angular handles 6 facilitate a user pivoting the support body 5 between these positions. If both support bodies 5 are oriented the same, the plate 2 is horizontal, depending on the position of the support body 5 can occupy two different levels. If the support body 5 occupy different positions as shown, the plate 2 is sloping towards the transverse support body 5 so that a bottle 7 lying on the refrigerated goods carrier 1 assumes a stable equilibrium position in contact with the side wall 3 carrying the transverse support body.
- Fig. 2 shows an enlarged perspective view from below of the refrigerated goods carrier 1 with upright placed support body 5.
- a large, elongated recess 9 is formed, which is provided to rest on a support rib of the left side wall 3 .
- One of these side wall 3 facing broad edge 10 of the support body has in its upper half also has a recess 11 whose shape is similar to that of the recess 9 and which is intended to receive the support rib when the support body 5 is placed transversely.
- carrier rail 14 of substantially L-shaped cross-section is attached to a narrow side 15 and an edge region of the underside of the plate 2, in particular by gluing. From the support rail 14 downwardly projecting bearing blocks 13 engage in rectangular cutouts 12 of the support body 5 a. Cylindrical axle body 16, which are inserted into mutually aligned bores of the support body 5 and the bearing blocks 13, define an axis 29 about which the support body 5 is pivotable.
- Fig. 3 shows one to Fig. 2 Similar partial view of the refrigerated goods carrier 1, in which the support body 5 is in its transverse position. The wide flank 10 is turned down so that the recess 11 can receive the support rib of the refrigerator body.
- Fig. 4 shows a schematic partial section through the refrigerated goods 1 and a part of a side wall 3, to which the already mentioned, designated here by 17 support rib is tightened to support the refrigerated goods carrier 1.
- the support body 5 is shown in its upright position.
- a second narrow flank 18 of the support body 5 touches the bottom of the support rail 14.
- the support rail 14 is supported substantially over its entire length by the support body 5, and not only on the axle beam 16.
- a second broad edge 19 of the support body 5 contacts the underside of the support rail 14 when the support body 5, the in Fig. 3 shown transverse position occupies.
- the flanks 18, 19 are connected by a rounded edge 20.
- the center of curvature of the edge 20 coincides with the pivot axis 29 of the support body 5. As a result, even the rounded edge 20 is always in contact with the underside of the support rail 14 when the support body 5 is pivoted.
- FIG. 4 An intermediate position, which passes through the support body 5 when pivoting between vertical and transverse position is in Fig. 4 shown as a dashed outline.
- an edge 21, on which the flanks 10 and 18 of the support body 5 meet projects laterally beyond the support rail 14 and shines in Fig. 4 to overlap with the side wall 3.
- the side wall 3 is displaced elastically outwards by the edge 21. In this way, the support body 5 is secured in each set by the user position, because he can not leave this position without the Beiseitedrfiten the side wall 4 required force is exerted on him.
- Fig. 6 shows a longitudinal section along the pivot axis 29 through the support rail 14 and the thereto hinged support body 5 according to a modified embodiment.
- the side wall 3 facing (in Fig. 6 not visible) edge 21 rounded so that the support body 5 is pivotable about the axis 29, without displacing the side wall 3.
- the radius of curvature of the rounded edge 20 is slightly smaller than the distance of the flanks 18, 19 from the pivot axis 29.
- the axle 16 is slightly flexible, and aligned bores 22, 23 of the bearing blocks 13 and the support body 5, which receive the axle 16 are slightly widened at their ends facing each other to allow a bending of the axle body 16.
- FIGS. 7 and 8 A further embodiment of the refrigerated goods carrier is based on FIGS. 7 and 8 explained.
- Fig. 7 is a partial section through the refrigerated goods analogous to Fig. 4
- Fig. 8 is a perspective view of a carrier rail 14 used in this embodiment
- the support rail 14 is here essentially a formed from sheet metal U-profile, which is dimensioned to clamp the plate 2 between two horizontal legs 24, 25. From the lower leg 15 hooks 26 are bent downwards, the support rail 14 in the Fig. 7 lend shown S-shaped cross-section.
- the support body 5 has substantially the same shape as in FIG Fig.
- the hook 26 forms an open towards the side wall 3 receptacle into which the axle body 27 can be pressed from the side.
- An insertion bevel 28 at the free end of the hook 26 makes it easier to push in the axle body 27.
- the axle body 27 can no longer detach from the hook 26, since the side wall 3 blocks it.
- the rounded edge 20 between the flanks 18, 19 of the support body 5 with the pivot axis 29 may be concentric, and a fuse of the support body 5 in the adjusted position results from the fact that the edge 21 to change the position of the support body , temporarily push back the side wall 3.
- the radius of curvature of the rounded edge 20 may also be smaller than the distance of the pivot axis 29 from the flanks 18, 19; in this case pivoting between the positions of the support body 5 is only possible by the meantime the hook 26 is deflected elastic.
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Kühlgutträger für ein Kältegerät, insbesondere für ein Haushaltskältegerät, der, ohne aus dem Gerät entnommen werden zu müssen und ohne ihn zu entladen, in seiner Höhe verstellt werden kann.The present invention relates to a refrigerated goods for a refrigeration appliance, in particular for a household refrigerator, which, without having to be removed from the device and without unloading it, can be adjusted in height.
Es sind Kühlgutträger für Kältegeräte allgemein verbreitet, bei denen eine Platte zwischen Stützkörpern, z. B. in Form eines die Platte rings umgebenden Rahmens oder von an Ränder der Platte angefügten Stegen, eingefasst ist, wobei die Stützkörper an die Form von Auflagerippen an Innenwänden des Kältegeräts angepasst sind, um die Platte an den Auflagerippen sicheren Halt zu geben.There are refrigerated goods for refrigerators commonly used in which a plate between support bodies, eg. Example, in the form of a surrounding the plate surrounding frame or attached to edges of the plate webs, is bordered, wherein the support body are adapted to the shape of Auflagerippen on inner walls of the refrigerator to give the plate to the support ribs secure fit.
Es ist ein Kältegerät bekannt geworden, bei dem ein Kühlgutträger zwischen zwei Niveaus mit Hilfe von Exzenterrädern verstellbar ist, die an Seitenwänden des Kältegerätegehäuses um eine zu der Seitenwand senkrechte Achse drehbar angebracht sind. Da die Exzenterräder zwischen einer Platte des Kühlgutträgers und den Seitenwänden Platz finden müssen, reduzieren sie die Breite dieser Platte und damit die nutzbare Abstellfläche. Außerdem muss die Seitenwand des Kältegeräts von vornherein ausgelegt sein, um die Exzenterräder daran zu montieren, so dass die Nachrüstung eines höhenverstellbaren Kühlgutträgers in einem Kältegerät, das in herkömmlicher Weise an den Seitenwänden vorspringende Auflagerippen für Kühlgutträger aufweist, nicht möglich ist.It is known a refrigerator, in which a refrigerated goods between two levels with the aid of eccentric wheels is adjustable, which are rotatably mounted on side walls of the refrigeration device housing about an axis perpendicular to the side wall. Since the eccentric must find space between a plate of the refrigerated goods and the side walls, they reduce the width of this plate and thus the usable storage space. In addition, the side wall of the refrigerator must be designed from the outset to mount the eccentric, so that the retrofitting of a height-adjustable refrigerated goods in a refrigerator, which has conventionally on the side walls projecting support ribs for refrigerated goods is not possible.
Ein Kühlgutträger gemäβ dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 ist z.B. aus der
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist, einen Kühlgutträger für ein Kältegerät bzw. ein Kältegerät zu schaffen, bei dem mit einfachen Mitteln eine Höhenverstellung des beladenen Kühlgutträgers ermöglicht ist, wobei der Kühlgutträger in einem herkömmlichen Kältegerät nachrüstbar sein soll.Object of the present invention is to provide a refrigerated goods for a refrigeration appliance or a refrigeration device, in which a simple adjustment of the height of the loaded refrigerated goods carrier is possible, the refrigerated goods is to be retrofitted in a conventional refrigerator.
Die Aufgabe wird gelöst, indem bei einem Kühlgutträger mit einer Platte und zwei sich jeweils entlang eines seitlichen Randes der Platte erstreckenden Stützkörpern wenigstens einer der Stützkörper um eine zu dem seitlichen Rand parallele Achse schwenkbar ist und wenigstens zwei Aufstandsflächen in unterschiedlichen Entfernungen von der Achse aufweist. Indem jeweils die eine oder die andere dieser Aufstandsflächen auf einer Auflagerippe des Kältegerätegehäuses platziert wird, kann die Platte in unterschiedlichen Entfernungen über der Rippe angeordnet werden.At least one of the support bodies is pivotable about an axis parallel to the lateral edge and has at least two footprints at different distances from the axle in a refrigerated goods carrier having a plate and two support bodies extending along a lateral edge of the plate. By each one or the other of these footprints on a Auflagerippe the refrigerator housing is placed, the plate can be arranged at different distances above the rib.
Ferner wird diese Aufgabe gelöst durch ein Kältegerät, insbesondere ein Haushaltskältegerät, nach Anspruch 13.Furthermore, this object is achieved by a refrigeration device, in particular a household refrigerator, according to
Vorzugsweise ist der Stützkörper eine Leiste, die sich im Wesentlichen über die gesamte Länge des seitlichen Randes erstreckt. Indem eine solche Leiste sich im Wesentlichen über die gesamte Länge des Randes erstreckende Aufstandsflächen zur Verfügung stellt, ist die Anwendbarkeit des Kühlgutträgers weitgehend abhängig von der Form der Auflagerippen des Kältegeräts; diese können sich kontinuierlich über die Seitenwände des Geräts erstrecken oder auf Vorsprünge jeweils am vorderen und hinteren Rand der Seitenwand reduziert sein.Preferably, the support body is a strip which extends substantially over the entire length of the lateral edge. By such a bar provides contact surfaces extending substantially over the entire length of the edge, the applicability of the refrigerated goods is largely dependent on the shape of the bearing ribs of the refrigerator; these may extend continuously over the side walls of the device or may be reduced to protrusions at the front and rear edges of the sidewall respectively.
Vorzugsweise hat der Stützkörper wenigstens zwei rechtwinklig an einer Kante aufeinander treffende Flanken, und die Aufstandsflächen sind an diesen zwei Flanken gebildet.Preferably, the support body has at least two edges meeting each other at right angles at one edge, and the contact surfaces are formed on these two flanks.
Die Aufstandsflächen können in Flanken des Stützkörpers eingetieft sein, um zumindest in Richtung parallel zu den seitlichen Rändern der Platte einen Formschluss mit Stützrippen des Kältegerätegehäuses herzustellen und so den Kühlgutträger in seiner Position im Kältegerät zu sichern.The contact surfaces may be recessed in flanks of the support body to at least in the direction parallel to the lateral edges of the plate make a positive connection with support ribs of the refrigeration device housing and so to secure the refrigerated goods in its position in the refrigerator.
Der Stützkörper ist vorzugsweise im Schnitt quer zu seiner Achse rechteckig mit einer abgerundeten Kante. Die abgerundete Kante erleichtert das Schwenken des Stützkörpers.The support body is preferably rectangular in section across its axis with a rounded edge. The rounded edge facilitates pivoting of the support body.
Einer ersten Ausgestaltung zufolge kann der Platte ein elastischer Haken zugeordnet sein, der einen Achszapfen des Stützkörpers umgreift.According to a first embodiment of the plate may be associated with an elastic hook which engages around a journal of the support body.
Einer zweiten Ausgestaltung zufolge ist zur Ausbildung eines Scharniers zwischen der Platte und dem Stützkörper ein Achskörper in miteinander fluchtenden Bohrungen des Stützkörpers und eines an der Platte festen Lagerbocks aufgenommen.According to a second embodiment, to form a hinge between the plate and the support body, an axle body is received in mutually aligned bores of the support body and fixed to the plate bearing block.
Bei einem solchen Kühlgutträger ist der Krümmungsradius der abgerundeten Kante vorzugsweise höchstens so groß wie der Abstand zwischen der abgerundeten Kante und der Achse. Wenn der Krümmungsradius und der Abstand gleich sind, kann der Stützkörper zwischen seinen zwei Stellungen schwenken, ohne den Haken oder den Achskörper zu verformen. Wenn der Krümmungsradius kleiner ist, kann die abgerundete Kante so zur Achse platziert werden, dass der Haken bzw. der Achskörper während des Schwenkens geringfügig elastisch gebogen wird. Indem sich somit der Haken bzw. der Achskörper einer Schwenkbewegung des Stützkörpers widersetzt, ist dieser in der einmal eingestellten Orientierung gesichert.In such a refrigerated goods carrier, the radius of curvature of the rounded edge is preferably at most as large as the distance between the rounded edge and the axis. When the radius of curvature and the distance are equal, the support body can pivot between its two positions without deforming the hook or the axle body. If the radius of curvature is smaller, the rounded edge can be placed to the axis so that the hook or the axle body is slightly elastically bent during pivoting. Thus, by resisting the hook or the axle of a pivoting movement of the support body, this is secured in the orientation once set.
Vorzugsweise sind die zwei Stützkörper unabhängig voneinander schwenkbar, um bei Bedarf auch eine schräge Stellung der Platte einstellen zu können.Preferably, the two support bodies are pivotable independently of one another, in order to be able to adjust an oblique position of the plate if required.
Zu Erleichterung der Handhabung ist vorzugsweise ein Griff an einem vorderen Ende jedes Stützkörpers gebildet.For ease of handling, a handle is preferably formed at a front end of each support body.
