Description

Türeinbauteil für ein Kältegerät  Door component for a refrigeration device
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Einbauteil für eine Tür eines Kältegeräts, The present invention relates to a built-in part for a door of a refrigerator,
insbesondere eines Haushaltskühlschranks. An der Innenseite einer solchen Tür sind herkömmlicherweise meist mehrere Einbauteile wie etwa Türabsteller, ein Butterfach oder dergleichen montiert. Diese Einbauteile haben einen wesentlichen Einfluss auf das Erscheinungsbild des Gerätes, das ein Benutzer wahrnimmt, nicht nur bei einem in particular a household refrigerator. On the inside of such a door usually several fixtures such as door racks, a butter compartment or the like are usually mounted. These built-in parts have a significant impact on the appearance of the device perceived by a user, not just one
Einbaugerät, bei dem die inneren Oberflächen des Lagerraums die einzigen Oberflächen des Geräts sind, die der Benutzer normalerweise im Betrieb wahrnimmt, sondern auch bei Standgeräten mit sichtbaren Außenflächen. Built-in unit, where the internal surfaces of the storage space are the only surfaces of the unit that the user normally perceives during operation, but also for floor-standing units with visible external surfaces.
Wenn ein Hersteller unterschiedliche Serien von Kältegeräten fertigt, ist es zwar wirtschaftlich sinnvoll, möglichst viele serienübergreifend einheitliche Komponenten zu verwenden, um die Fertigungskosten niedrig zu halten, andererseits sollten If a manufacturer manufactures different series of refrigeration appliances, it makes economic sense to use as many cross-unit uniform components as possible in order to keep the production costs low
unterschiedliche Serien oder Modelle aber auch ein für den Benutzer wiedererkennbares, individuelles Gepräge erhalten. Um dieses Ziel zu erreichen, bietet es sich an, receive different series or models but also a recognizable for the user, individual character. To achieve this goal, it makes sense
Gerätegehäuse weitgehend einheitlich zu fertigen und Einbauteile modell- oder serienspezifisch zu variieren. Wenn die Einbauteile im Wesentlichen einteilig spritzgeformt werden, besteht zwar eine große gestalterische Freiheit, doch da aufwendige Device housing largely uniform to manufacture and vary mounting parts model or series-specific. If the built-in parts are substantially injection-molded in one piece, there is a great freedom of design, but there consuming
Spritzformen für jedes einzelne Einbauteil benötigt werden, ist dieser Ansatz relativ teuer. Injection molds are required for each individual fitting, this approach is relatively expensive.
Auf der Suche nach einer preiswerteren Lösung wurde auch bereits ein modularer Ansatz in Betracht gezogen, bei dem Komponenten eines Türeinbauteils wie etwa eine In the search for a cheaper solution, a modular approach has already been considered in which components of a door component such as a
Bodenplatte und Seitenwangen separat gefertigt und zu dem fertigen Einbauteil zusammengefügt werden. Dies ermöglicht die Fertigung von Einbauteilen mit Bottom plate and side walls are manufactured separately and joined together to form the finished fixture. This allows the production of built-in parts with
unterschiedlichen Abmessungen, indem identische Seitenwangen mit unterschiedlich langen Bodenplatten kombiniert werden. Um unterschiedlichen Kältegerätemodellen ein individuelles Gepräge zu verleihen, kann es genügen, jeweils gerätespezifische different dimensions by combining identical sidewalls with floorboards of different lengths. In order to give different refrigerator models an individual character, it can be sufficient, in each case device-specific
Seitenwangen mit modellübergreifend einheitlichen Bodenplatten zu kombinieren. Dieser Ansatz ist zwar bereits kostengünstiger als die einteilige Fertigung, doch ist das Einsparpotential beschränkt durch die Tatsache, dass die Seitenwangen in der Regel eine komplexere Form haben als die sich zwischen ihnen erstreckenden Komponenten eines Türeinbauteils, so dass die zu ihrer Fertigung benötigten individuellen Formen immer noch recht kostspielig sind. Side cheeks to be combined with model-identical floor panels. Although this approach is already more cost-effective than one-piece manufacturing, the potential for savings is limited by the fact that the side cheeks are usually more complex than the components of one extending between them Door component, so that the individual shapes required for their production are still quite expensive.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist daher, ein Türeinbauteil für ein Kältegerät zu schaffen, dessen äußeres Erscheinungsbild mit geringem Aufwand grundlegend veränderbar ist. The object of the present invention is therefore to provide a door component for a refrigeration appliance, whose external appearance is fundamentally changeable with little effort.
Die Aufgabe wird gelöst, indem bei einem Türeinbauteil für ein Kältegerät mit einer Bodenplatte und durch die Bodenplatte verbundenen hohlen Seitenwangen in einen Hohlraum wenigstens einer der transparenten, insbesondere glasklaren Seitenwangen ein Füllkörper eingefügt ist. Indem unterschiedliche Varianten des Füllkörpers verwendet werden, ist es möglich, an sich identischen Seitenwangen und damit auch den The object is achieved by a filler is inserted in a door part for a refrigerator with a bottom plate and connected by the bottom plate hollow side cheeks in a cavity of at least one of the transparent, especially crystal clear side cheeks. By different variants of the filling body are used, it is possible to identical side cheeks and thus the
Türeinbauteilen, zu denen sie gehören, ein deutlich unterschiedliches Aussehen zu verleihen. Der Füllkörper kann von wesentlich einfacherer Form sein als die Seitenwange, in deren Hohlraum er untergebracht wird, so dass die Fertigung verschiedener Varianten von Füllkörpern erheblich preiswerter ist als die von verschiedenen Varianten von Door components to which they belong to give a distinctly different appearance. The filler can be of much simpler shape than the side wall, in the cavity he is housed, so that the production of different variants of packing is considerably cheaper than that of different variants of
Seitenwangen. Darüber hinaus ergibt sich durch die Verwendung der Füllkörper die Möglichkeit, deutlich unterscheidbare Türeinbauteile bereit zu stellen, die sämtlich einen einteiligen, modellübergreifend einheitlichen und deshalb durch Großserienfertigung preiswerten Grundkörper umfassen, in dem wenigstens die Seitenwangen und die Bodenplatte zusammengefasst sind. Side bolsters. In addition, the use of the filling body makes it possible to provide clearly distinguishable door components, all of which comprise a one-piece, model-uniform and therefore low-cost basic body, in which at least the side cheeks and the bottom plate are combined.
Wenn der Füllkörper in den Hohlraum geklemmt ist oder mit so geringem Spiel in den Hohlraum hineinpasst, dass eine aus einer Belastung des Türeinbauteils in normalem Betrieb resultierende Verformung zur Klemmung des Füllkörpers führt, hat der Füllkörper darüber hinaus eine versteifende, stabilisierende Wirkung auf das Türeinbauteil. Dies bietet die Möglichkeit, eine gewünschte Tragfähigkeit des Türeinbauteils mit einer geringeren Materialstärke zu erzielen als bei einem Türeinbauteil ohne Füllkörper, so dass die Kosten der Füllkörper durch eine solche Materialeinsparung wenigstens teilweise kompensiert werden können. If the filling body is clamped in the cavity or fits into the cavity with so little play that deformation resulting from stress on the door component in normal operation leads to clamping of the filling body, the filling body moreover has a stiffening, stabilizing effect on the door component. This offers the possibility of achieving a desired carrying capacity of the door component with a lower material thickness than in the case of a door component without a packing, so that the cost of the packing can be at least partially compensated by such material savings.
Der Hohlraum kann in an sich bekannter Weise nach unten offen sein. Um ein Herausfallen des Füllkörpers aus dem nach unten offenen Hohlraum zu vermeiden, falls der Füllkörper nicht geklemmt ist oder die Klemmung durch eine zeitweilige Verformung des Türeinbauteils verloren gehen kann, ist der Füllkörper zweckmäßigerweise in der Seitenwange verrastet. Es ist an sich bekannt, an einer Außenwand einer hohlen Seitenwange eine Aufnahmenut für einen Stütznocken vorzusehen, der das Einbauteil an einer Kältegerätetür abstützt. Eine Verformung der Seitenwange in der Umgebung der Aufnahmenut unter Last kann den sicheren Sitz des Türeinbauteils beeinträchtigen. Um die Aufnahmenut zu The cavity may be open in a conventional manner down. In order to avoid falling out of the filling body from the downwardly open cavity, if the filling body is not clamped or the clamping can be lost by a temporary deformation of the door component, the filler is expediently locked in the side cheek. It is known per se to provide on an outer wall of a hollow side wall a receiving groove for a support cam, which supports the mounting part on a refrigerator door. Deformation of the side wall in the vicinity of the receiving groove under load can impair the secure fitment of the door component. To the receiving groove too
stabilisieren, ist der Füllkörper vorzugsweise so geformt, dass er an einander stabilize, the filler is preferably shaped so that it to each other
zugewandten Oberflächen der Nut und einer gegenüber liegenden Innenwand anliegt. facing surfaces of the groove and an opposite inner wall rests.
Das Türeinbauteil kann insbesondere als ein Türabsteller mit einer die Seitenwangen verbindenden vorderen Wand ausgebildet sein. Vorzugsweise ist eine solche vordere Wand mit den Seitenwangen einteilig und wie diese transparent bzw. glasklar, so dass in den Türabsteller aufgenommenes Kühlgut auch durch die vordere Wand hindurch sichtbar ist. The door assembly part may in particular be designed as a door rack with a front wall connecting the side walls. Preferably, such a front wall with the side cheeks in one piece and as this transparent or crystal clear, so that recorded in the door rack refrigerated goods is also visible through the front wall.
Ein an einem oberen Rand der vorderen Wand angebrachtes Profilelement kann allein gestalterischen Zwecken oder auch zur Versteifung der vorderen Wand dienen. A profile element attached to an upper edge of the front wall may be used solely for design purposes or for stiffening the front wall.
Unter dem gestalterischen Aspekt ist es wünschenswert, dass der Füllkörper eine untere Kante aufweist, die auf gleicher Höhe mit einer unteren Kante des Profilelements liegt, so dass das Profilelement einem Betrachter als Fortsetzung des Füllkörpers erscheint. From the design point of view, it is desirable for the filling body to have a lower edge which lies at the same height as a lower edge of the profile element, so that the profile element appears to a viewer as a continuation of the filling body.
Alternativ kann das Türeinbauteil auch als Butterfach, insbesondere mit einer zwischen den Seitenwangen angeordneten schwenkbaren Klappe, ausgebildet sein. Alternatively, the door component can also be designed as a butter compartment, in particular with a pivotable flap arranged between the side panels.
Weitere Merkmale und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der nachfolgenden Beschreibung von Ausführungsbeispielen unter Bezugnahme auf die beigefügten Figuren. Es zeigen: Fig. 1 eine auseinander gezogene Ansicht eines Türabstellers als Beispiel eines erfindungsgemäßen Türeinbauteils; Further features and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following description of embodiments with reference to the accompanying figures.

The door rack shown in Fig. 1 is composed of a one-piece injection molded from a clear plastic such as polystyrene or polymethyl methacrylate base body 1, a profile element 2 and packing 3.
Der Grundkörper 1 hat im Wesentlichen die Form eines nach oben offenen, rechteckigen Kastens mit einer vorderen Wand 4, die, wenn der Türabsteller in an sich bekannter Weise an einer Kühlschranktür montiert ist, von der Tür abgewandt ist, einer der The main body 1 has substantially the shape of an upwardly open, rectangular box with a front wall 4, which, when the door rack is mounted in a conventional manner to a refrigerator door, facing away from the door, one of
Kühlschranktür zugewandten Rückwand 5, einer in der Figur verdeckten Bodenplatte und zwei Seitenwangen 6, zwischen denen sich die Wände 4, 5 und die Bodenplatte erstrecken. Die Seitenwangen 6 sind hohl und nach unten offen, wie anhand der Ansicht der Fig. 2 noch deutlicher wird, und die Füllkörper 3 sind vorgesehen, um eng toleriert in die Hohlräume der Seitenwangen 6 von unten eingeschoben zu werden. Die Füllkörper 3 sind hier winkelförmig, mit einem rückwandnahen vertikalen Schenkel 7, dessen Höhe exakt derjenigen des Hohlraums der Seitenwangen 6 entspricht, und einem nach vorn vorspringenden horizontalen Schenkel 8, dessen Unterkante 9 in Höhe einer Stufe 10 verläuft, die sich über die Außenseiten der Seitenwangen 5 und der vorderen Wand 4 zieht. Während bei den Seitenwangen 6 ein oberer Abschnitt 11 oberhalb der Stufe 10 geringfügig über einen darunter liegenden unteren Abschnitt 12 nach außen vorspringt, ist bei der vorderen Wand 4 ein oberer Abschnitt 13 oberhalb der Stufe 10 gegenüber dem darunter liegenden Abschnitt 14 leicht zurückversetzt. Das Profilelement 2 ist geformt, um von oben auf den oberen Abschnitt 13 der vorderen Wand 4 aufgesteckt zu werden und dabei an einer von der Oberkante des Abschnitts 13 nach innen vorspringenden Rippe zu verrasten. In verrastetem Zustand füllt eine Refrigerator door facing the rear wall 5, a concealed in the figure bottom plate and two side walls 6, between which the walls 4, 5 and the bottom plate extend. The side cheeks 6 are hollow and open at the bottom, as is more apparent from the view of FIG. 2, and the filler 3 are provided to be inserted narrow tolerances in the cavities of the side cheeks 6 from below. The filler 3 are here angular, with a rear wall near vertical leg 7, whose height corresponds exactly to that of the cavity of the side cheeks 6, and a forward projecting horizontal leg 8, the lower edge 9 extends at the level of a step 10 extending over the outer sides of the Side cheeks 5 and the front wall 4 pulls. While in the side cheeks 6, an upper portion 11 above the step 10 protrudes slightly above an underlying lower portion 12 to the outside, in the front wall 4, an upper portion 13 above the step 10 against the underlying portion 14 slightly recessed. The profile element 2 is shaped to be plugged from above on the upper portion 13 of the front wall 4 and thereby to lock on a from the upper edge of the portion 13 inwardly projecting rib. When locked, one fills
Außenplatte 15 des Profilelements 2 den oberen Abschnitt 13 exakt aus, und die freiliegende Oberfläche der Außenplatte 15 ist bündig mit den seitlich daran Outer plate 15 of the profile element 2, the upper portion 13 exactly, and the exposed surface of the outer plate 15 is flush with the side of it
angrenzenden Abschnitten 1 1 der Seitenwangen 6, so dass das Profilelement 2 einem Betrachter wie eine Verlängerung der horizontalen Schenkel 8 der im Innern der durchsichtigen Seitenwangen 6 sichtbaren Füllkörper 3 anmutet. adjacent sections 1 1 of the side walls 6, so that the profile element 2 to a viewer like an extension of the horizontal leg 8 of the visible inside the transparent side walls 6 filler 3 seems.
Fig. 2 zeigt genauer die Struktur der Seitenwangen 5 und der darin aufgenommenen Füllkörper 3. Die Seitenwangen 6 haben jeweils eine Innenwand 16, die an ihren Rändern einteilig mit den Wänden 4, 5 und der Bodenplatte 17 zusammenhängt. Eine Außenwand 18 der Seitenwange 6 ist lediglich an ihrem vorderen Rand mit der Innenwand 16 und der vorderen Wand 4 sowie an ihrem oberen Rand mit einer horizontalen Deckenplatte 19 verbunden. Untere und hintere Ränder der Außenwand 18 sind unverbunden. Der hintere Rand der Außenwand 18 ist durch eine nach innen abgewinkelte Rippe 20 versteift. Fig. 2 shows in more detail the structure of the side walls 5 and the therein received packing 3. The side cheeks 6 each have an inner wall 16 which is integrally connected at their edges with the walls 4, 5 and the bottom plate 17. An outer wall 18 of the side wall 6 is connected only at its front edge with the inner wall 16 and the front wall 4 and at its upper edge with a horizontal ceiling plate 19. Lower and rear edges of the outer wall 18 are unconnected. The rear edge of the outer wall 18 is stiffened by an inwardly angled rib 20.
Angrenzend an die Rippe 20 ist in der Außenwand 18 eine Aufnahmenut 21 für einen Stütznocken der Kühlschranktür geformt. Adjacent to the rib 20, a receiving groove 21 is formed in the outer wall 18 for a support cam of the refrigerator door.
Fig. 3 zeigt einen Schnitt durch eine Seitenwange 6 und einen daran montierten Fig. 3 shows a section through a side wall 6 and a mounted thereon
Füllkörper 3 entlang einer durch die Aufnahmenut 21 verlaufenden vertikalen Ebene. In einer Wand 22 der Aufnahmenut ist eine Rastöffnung 23 gebildet, in der eine Rastnase 24 des Füllkörpers 3 im Eingriff ist. Die Wand 22 ist an ihrem oberen Ende abgewinkelt und anstatt mit der Deckenplatte 19 unmittelbar mit der Innenwand 16 verbunden, um die Seitenwange 6 zu versteifen. Der Füllkörper 3 füllt den Zwischenraum zwischen der Wand 22 und der Innenwand 16 der Seitenwange 6 exakt aus und trägt so ebenfalls zur Steifigkeit und Belastbarkeit der Seitenwange 6 bei. Wiederum bezogen auf Fig. 2 erkennt man an einer Außenseite des vertikalen Schenkels 7 eine Nut 25, die die Rippe 20 der Außenwand 18 formschlüssig aufnimmt. Packing 3 along a through the receiving groove 21 extending vertical plane. In a wall 22 of the receiving groove, a latching opening 23 is formed in which a latching lug 24 of the filling body 3 is engaged. The wall 22 is angled at its upper end and connected directly to the inner wall 16 instead of the ceiling plate 19 in order to stiffen the side cheek 6. The filler 3 fills the gap between the wall 22 and the inner wall 16 of the side wall 6 exactly and thus also contributes to the rigidity and resilience of the side cheek 6. Referring again to Fig. 2 can be seen on an outer side of the vertical leg 7, a groove 25 which receives the rib 20 of the outer wall 18 in a form-fitting manner.
Der Füllkörper 3 ist wie der Grundkörper 1 ein spritzgeformter Hohlkörper. Zwischen zwei nach unten offenen Hohlräumen 26, 27 erstreckt sich eine den vorderen Abschluss des vertikalen Schenkels 7 bildende Wand 28 über die gesamte Höhe und Breite des The filler 3 is like the main body 1 an injection-molded hollow body. Between two downwardly open cavities 26, 27 extends a front end of the vertical leg 7 forming wall 28 over the entire height and width of
Füllkörpers 3 und stützt so auch die Wände 16, 18 der Seitenwange 6 aneinander ab.  Packing 3 and thus also supports the walls 16, 18 of the side wall 6 to each other.
Bedingt durch die Fertigungstechnik sind die Hohlräume 29 der Seitenwange 6 und 26, 27 des Füllkörpers 3 nach unten verbreitert, wie insbesondere in Fig. 4 zu erkennen. Due to the manufacturing technology, the cavities 29 of the side cheek 6 and 26, 27 of the packing 3 are widened downwards, as can be seen in particular in Fig. 4.
Fig. 5 verdeutlicht anhand eines Querschnitts die Verrastung des Profilelements 2 auf einem von der Oberkante der vorderen Wand 4 nach innen abstehenden Steg 31 und die Ausrichtung der Unterkante 9 des horizontalen Schenkels 8 auf die Unterkante des montierten Profilelements 2 bzw. die Stufe 10. FIG. 5 illustrates, by means of a cross-section, the latching of the profiled element 2 on a web 31 projecting inwards from the upper edge of the front wall 4 and the alignment of the lower edge 9 of the horizontal leg 8 with the lower edge of the mounted profiled element 2 or the step 10.
Das Konzept der Erfindung, das Aussehen eines Türeinbauteils durch in hohle, durchsichtige Seitenwangen eingefügte Füllkörper zu modifizieren, ist auch auf ein Butterfach übertragbar, wie Fig. 6 verdeutlicht, die ein solches Butterfach mit einer zwischen Seitenwangen 6 schwenkbar aufgehängten Klappe 30 in teiloffener Stellung zeigt. Die Klappe 30 hat hier wie die vordere Wand 4 des Türabstellers der Fig. 1 eine Stufe 10, wobei allerdings wie bei den Seitenwangen der über der Stufe 10 liegende Bereich über den darunter liegenden vorspringt. Die Füllkörper 3 sind mit denjenigen der Fig.1 identisch, so dass Unterkanten 9 ihrer vertikalen Schenkel 7 bei geschlossener Klappe 30 auf Höhe der Stufe 10 liegen. Alternativ käme auch ein Füllkörper von im Wesentlichen flach quaderförmiger Gestalt in Betracht, wie in Fig. 6 als gestrichelteThe concept of the invention to modify the appearance of a door assembly by inserted in hollow, transparent side walls filler is also transferable to a butter compartment, as Fig. 6 illustrates that shows such a butter compartment with a pivotally suspended between side panels 6 flap 30 in partially open position , The flap 30 has here as the front wall 4 of the door compartment of Fig. 1, a step 10, however, as in the side cheeks of the area lying above the step 10 projecting beyond the underlying. The filling bodies 3 are identical to those of FIG. 1, so that lower edges 9 of their vertical legs 7 lie at the height of the step 10 when the flap 30 is closed. Alternatively, a filler of substantially flat parallelepiped shape would be considered, as in Fig. 6 as dashed
Kontur angedeutet, der die Seitenwangen 6 auf ihrer gesamten Höhe und Breite ausfüllt. Contour indicated that fills the side cheeks 6 on their entire height and width.
