Description

Haltevorrichtung für Flaschen insbesondere zur Anordnung in einem Kältegerät  Holding device for bottles, in particular for arrangement in a refrigeration device
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Haltevorrichtung für Flaschen und dergleichen gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 , insbesondere zur Anordnung in einem Kältegerät, wie z.B. einem Kühlschrank oder einem Weinlagerschrank. Die Erfindung betrifft ferner einen Fachboden für ein Kältegerät und ein Kältegerät. The present invention relates to a holding device for bottles and the like according to the preamble of claim 1, in particular for mounting in a refrigeration device, such. a refrigerator or a wine storage cabinet. The invention further relates to a shelf for a refrigerator and a refrigerator.
Eine Haltevorrichtung mit einer Flaschenablage ist z.B. aus der WO 2005/090883 A1 bekannt. Diese Haltevorrichtung ist an einem Fachboden bzw. Einlegeboden eines Kältege- räts angeordnet. A holding device with a bottle rest is e.g. known from WO 2005/090883 A1. This holding device is arranged on a shelf or shelf of a refrigerator.
Ungünstig an dieser Haltevorrichtung ist der hohe Platzbedarf, der sich insbesondere dann nachteilig bemerkbar macht, wenn keine Flasche in der Flaschenablage aufgenommen ist. In diesem Fall könnte die Flaschenablage vom Fachboden abgenommen und separat aufbewahrt werden, was jedoch aufwändig ist, weswegen in der Praxis von einer solchen Möglichkeit nur selten Gebrauch gemacht wird. Unfavorable in this fixture is the high space requirement, which makes disadvantageous especially when no bottle is received in the bottle rack. In this case, the bottle tray could be removed from the shelf and stored separately, which is expensive, which is why, in practice, such a possibility is rarely used.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist eine platzsparende Gestaltung einer Haltevorrichtung für Flaschen, insbesondere zur Anordnung bzw. Verwendung in einem Kältegerät. The object of the invention is a space-saving design of a holding device for bottles, in particular for arrangement or use in a refrigerator.
Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst von einer Haltevorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1. Die Lösung der Aufgabe erstreckt sich gemäß den nebengeordneten Ansprüchen auch auf einen Fachboden und auf ein Kältegerät. Bevorzugte und vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen sind Gegenstand der jeweils abhängigen Ansprüche. This object is achieved by a holding device with the features of claim 1. The solution of the problem extends according to the independent claims also to a shelf and a refrigeration device. Preferred and advantageous developments are the subject of the respective dependent claims.
Erfindungsgemäß wird eine Haltevorrichtung für Flaschen und dergleichen mit einer Flaschenablage zur liegenden Aufnahme wenigstens einer Flasche und einer Halterung vorgeschlagen, wobei vorgesehen ist, dass diese Haltevorrichtung einen Klappmechanismus aufweist, mittels dessen die Flaschenablage von einer platzsparenden, eingeklappten Ruhestellung in eine ausgeklappte Gebrauchsstellung überführbar ist und umgekehrt. Bevorzugt ist vorgesehen, dass die Flaschenablage mittels des Klappmechanismus von exakt einer definierten Ruhestellung in exakt eine definierte Gebrauchsstellung überführbar ist und umgekehrt. Insbesondere ist vorgesehen, dass sich die Flaschenablage aus ihrer eingeklappten Ruhestellung nach vorne, d.h. z.B. in Richtung der Beschickungsseite des Kältegeräts, aufklappen bzw. ausklappen lässt. According to the invention, a holding device for bottles and the like with a bottle rest for lying receiving at least one bottle and a holder is proposed, wherein it is provided that this holding device has a folding mechanism, by means of which the bottle shelf can be transferred from a space-saving, retracted rest position into an unfolded position of use and vice versa. It is preferably provided that the bottle storage by means of the folding mechanism of exactly one defined rest position in exactly a defined position of use can be transferred and vice versa. In particular, it is provided that the bottle rack from its retracted rest position to the front, ie, for example, in the direction of the feed side of the refrigerator, unfold or fold out.
Die erfindungsgemäße Haltvorrichtung ist insbesondere zur Anordnung an einem Fachboden eines Kältegeräts vorgesehen. Die Halterung dient zum Haltern an diesem Fachboden.

Fig. 3 und der Fig. 1.  Fig. 3 and Fig. 1st
Fig. 1 zeigt einen mit 1 bezeichneten Fachboden zur Anordnung in einem nicht dargestellten Kältegerät. Der Fachboden 1 ist mit seinem rechten Seitenrand 12 und mit seinem linken Seitenrand 14 im gekühlten Innenraum des Kältegeräts gehaltert und dient der Ablage von Kühlgut. Die Richtungsangaben rechts, links, vorne und hinten beziehen sich auf die Perspektive eines Bedieners von der Beschickungsseite des Kältegeräts. Hierüber definieren sich auch die Begriffe„Tiefe" und„Breite" des Fachbodens 1. Am Fachboden 1 ist eine insgesamt mit 2 bezeichnete erfindungsgemäße Haltevorrichtung angeordnet. Diese umfasst eine Flaschenablage 3 zur liegenden Aufnahme einer Flasche oder dergleichen. Zur Aufnahme einer Flasche ist die Flaschenablage 3 mit einer konkaven Auflagefläche 31 mit einer Längserstreckung L versehen, die nach vorne hin durch einen Quersteg 32 begrenzt ist, der als Sicherungsmittel für die aufzunehmende Flasche dient. Die konkave Auflagefläche 31 kann zumindest bereichsweise mit einer weichen und/oder griffigen Oberfläche versehen sein. Ferner umfasst die Haltevorrichtung 2 einer Halterung 4, mittels derer die Flaschenablage 3 längsbeweglich am hinteren Rand des Fachbodens 1 angeordnet ist, wozu die Halterung 4 im Querschnitt U-förmig ausgebildet ist und eine Schiene 11 am hinteren Rand des Fachbodens 1 derart übergreift, dass die Haltevorrichtung 2 vom Fachboden 1 abnehmbar ist. Fig. 1 shows a designated shelf 1 for arrangement in a refrigeration device, not shown. The shelf 1 is with its right side edge 12 and with his left side edge 14 held in the cooled interior of the refrigerator and serves to store refrigerated goods. The directions on the right, left, front and rear refer to the perspective of an operator from the feed side of the refrigerator. This is also the definition of the terms "depth" and "width" of the shelf 1. The shelf 1 is a generally designated 2 holding device according to the invention arranged. This comprises a bottle rest 3 for lying receiving a bottle or the like. To accommodate a bottle, the bottle rack 3 is provided with a concave support surface 31 with a longitudinal extent L, which is bounded at the front by a transverse web 32, which serves as a securing means for the male bottle. The concave support surface 31 may be at least partially provided with a soft and / or non-slip surface. Further, the holding device 2 comprises a holder 4, by means of which the bottle shelf 3 is arranged longitudinally movable on the rear edge of the shelf 1, for which the holder 4 is U-shaped in cross-section and a rail 11 at the rear edge of the shelf 1 engages over such that the Holding device 2 from the shelf 1 is removable.
In der in Fig. 1 gezeigten ausgeklappten Gebrauchsstellung liegt die Flaschenablage 3 auf dem Fachboden 1 auf und stütz sich gegen diesen ab. In dieser Gebrauchsstellung kann die Flaschenablage 3 exakt eine Flasche 6 oder dergleichen aufnehmen, wie in Fig. 2 gezeigt. In Längserstreckung L entspricht die Länge der Flaschenablage 3 in etwa zwei Drittel der Tiefe des Fachbodens 1. In the unfolded position of use shown in Fig. 1, the bottle tray 3 rests on the shelf 1 and is supported against this. In this position of use, the bottle rack 3 can accommodate exactly a bottle 6 or the like, as shown in Fig. 2. In the longitudinal extension L, the length of the bottle rest 3 corresponds approximately to two thirds of the depth of the shelf 1.
Die Flaschenablage 3 ist über ein erstes Gelenk 34 schwenkbar an der Halterung 4 befestigt. Bezüglich der Längserstreckung L der Flaschenablage 3 ist in etwa mittig dieser ein zweites Gelenk 35 ausgebildet, welches die Flaschenablage 3 bzw. deren konkave Auflagefläche 31 in zwei Teilflächenabschnitte 33a und 33b mit in etwa gleichgroßen Teilflächen unterteilt. Der erste Teilflächenabschnitt 33a ist über das erste Gelenk 34 schwenkbar mit der Halterung 4 verbunden, der zweite Teilflächenabschnitt 33b ist über das zweite Gelenk 35 schwenkbar mit dem ersten Teilflächenabschnitt 33a verbunden. The bottle tray 3 is pivotally attached to the holder 4 via a first hinge 34. With regard to the longitudinal extension L of the bottle storage 3, a second joint 35 is formed in the center thereof which divides the bottle storage 3 or its concave support surface 31 into two partial surface sections 33a and 33b with approximately equal partial surfaces. The first partial surface portion 33a is pivotally connected to the holder 4 via the first joint 34, the second partial surface portion 33b is pivotally connected to the first partial surface portion 33a via the second joint 35.
Die Gelenke 34 und 35 bilden die Scharniere eines Klappmechanismus, mittels dessen die Flaschenablage 3 von der in Fig. 3 gezeigten platzsparenden, eingeklappten Ruhestellung in die in der Fig. 1 gezeigten ausgeklappten Gebrauchsstellung überführbar ist und umgekehrt, wie nachfolgend erläutert. Die Gelenkachsen 341 und 351 der Gelenke 34 und 35 (vgl. Fig. 4) sind sowohl parallel zum Fachboden 1 als auch zueinander parallel ausgebildet. The joints 34 and 35 form the hinges of a folding mechanism, by means of which the bottle shelf 3 can be converted from the space-saving, folded-in rest position shown in FIG. 3 into the unfolded position of use shown in FIG and vice versa, as explained below. The joint axes 341 and 351 of the joints 34 and 35 (see Fig. 4) are formed both parallel to the shelf 1 and to each other in parallel.
Fig. 3 zeigt die Flaschenablage 3 in der eingeklappten Ruhestellung. Hierbei befindet sich die Flaschenablage 3 in einer im Wesentlichen senkrechten Position relativ zum Fachboden 1. Der erste Teilflächenabschnitt 33a ist am ersten Gelenk 34 an der Halterung 4 bezüglich des Fachbodens 1 um 90° nach oben geklappt, wobei der zweite Teilflächenabschnitt 33b am zweiten Gelenk 35 bezüglich des ersten Teilflächenabschnitts 33a um 180° nach unten abgeklappt ist. Der erste und der zweite Teilflächenabschnitt 33a und 33b sind somit praktisch parallel zueinander angeordnet und berühren sich an ihren Unterseiten. An der Flaschenablage 3 kann ein nicht näher dargestelltes Haltemittel vorgesehen sein, um z.B. die Teilflächenabschnitte 33a und 33b in der gezeigten eingeklappten Ruhestellung zu fixieren bzw. zu arretieren. Ausgehend von dieser in Fig. 3 gezeigten eingeklappten Ruhestellung kann die Flaschenablage 3 in die in Fig. 1 gezeigte ausgeklappte Gebrauchsstellung überführt werden, wie in Fig. 4 gezeigt. Hierbei führen die Teilflächenabschnitte 33a und 33b eine Schwenkbewegung von 180° zueinander aus, was durch den Bogenpfeil A angedeutet ist, wodurch sich die Flaschenablage 3 ausklappt, was durch den Pfeil B angedeutet ist. Der erste Teilflächenabschnitt 33a führt hierbei am ersten Gelenk 34 eine Schwenkbewegung um 90° in Richtung des Fachbodens 1 aus. Die Endstellung, d.h. die ausgeklappte Gebrauchsstellung ist erreicht, wenn beide Teilflächenabschnitte 33a und 33b zueinander fluchtend auf dem Fachboden 1 aufliegen und sich gegen diesen abstützen. Das Einklappen der Flaschenablage 3, d.h. deren Überführung aus der ausgeklappten Gebrauchsstellung in die eingeklappte Ruhestellung, erfolgt mit einer entgegengesetzten Bewegungsabfolge. Fig. 3 shows the bottle tray 3 in the retracted position of rest. Here, the bottle rest 3 is in a substantially vertical position relative to the shelf 1. The first partial surface portion 33a is folded at the first joint 34 on the holder 4 with respect to the shelf 1 by 90 °, wherein the second partial surface portion 33b on the second hinge 35th with respect to the first partial surface portion 33a folded down by 180 °. The first and second partial surface portions 33a and 33b are thus arranged substantially parallel to each other and touch each other at their lower sides. On the bottle rack 3, a holding means not shown in detail may be provided to e.g. to fix the partial surface portions 33a and 33b in the shown folded-in rest position or to lock. Starting from this folded-in rest position shown in FIG. 3, the bottle rest 3 can be transferred into the unfolded position of use shown in FIG. 1, as shown in FIG. 4. Here, the surface portions 33a and 33b perform a pivoting movement of 180 ° to each other, which is indicated by the bow arrow A, whereby the bottle tray 3 unfolds, which is indicated by the arrow B. In this case, the first partial surface section 33a performs a pivoting movement at 90 ° in the direction of the shelf 1 at the first joint 34. The end position, i. the unfolded position of use is reached when both sub-surface portions 33a and 33b lie flush with each other on the shelf 1 and are supported against it. The collapse of the bottle tray 3, i. their transfer from the unfolded position of use in the retracted position of rest, takes place with an opposite sequence of movements.
Der Klappmechanismus der Flaschenablage 3 kann durch mindestens ein nicht näher dargestelltes Federelement federkraftbeaufschlagt sein, welches ein selbsttätiges Aufklappen und/oder Einklappen der Flaschenablage 3 herbeiführt, oder zumindest ein Aufklappen und/oder Einklappen der Flaschenablage 3 unterstützt. So ist insbesondere vorgesehen, dass die Flaschenablage 3 durch Antippen in der eingeklappten Ruhestellung selbsttätig bzw. automatisch in die ausgeklappte Gebrauchsstellung ausklappt. Das Antippen kann z.B. durch Ausüben einer Druckkraft im Bereich des flaschenartigen Funktionssymbols 36 erfolgen. Die Druckkraft kann z.B. direkt mit der aufzunehmenden bzw. einzulagernden Flasche 6 aufgebracht werden, was einen Handgriff einspart. Der Fachboden 1 muss vor dem Ausklappen der Flaschenablage 3 nur soweit leer geräumt wer- den, wie Platz für die Flaschenablage 3 in der Gebrauchsstellung benötigt wird. The folding mechanism of the bottle shelf 3 can be spring-loaded by at least one spring element not shown in detail, which causes an automatic unfolding and / or folding of the bottle shelf 3, or supports at least unfolding and / or folding the bottle rack 3. Thus, it is provided in particular that the bottle storage 3 by tapping in the retracted position of rest automatically or automatically folds out in the unfolded position of use. The tapping can for example be done by exerting a compressive force in the area of the bottle-like function symbol 36. The pressure force can for example be applied directly to the male or einzulagernden bottle 6, which saves a handle. The shelf 1 must be vacated before unfolding the bottle rack 3 only as far as the space required for the bottle rack 3 in the position of use.
