Beim Einsatz als Türprofil ist aus der DE 10 2005 059 145 A1 auch ein Rahmenprofil mit einem Grundprofil aus Kunststoff, einer Wärmeleitfolie sowie einer Dekormetallfolie insbesondere aus Metall bekannt geworden.Frame profiles of the type mentioned above can be used in particular for the construction of housings of air conditioners or freezers and for the construction of door or window frames, in particular of freezers. Known such frame profiles are usually made of aluminum. From the EP 1 801 525 A2 In addition, frame profiles are known in which metal elements are coated with plastic materials.

Die GB 2287491 A offenbart ein Bauteil, das einen Hohlraum aufweist und aus einem ersten Material besteht, wobei im Hohlraum ein Versteifungskörper angeordnet ist, der im Wesentlichen die gleiche Länge wie das Bauteil aufweist, dieser Körper den ganzen oder nur einen Teil des Hohlraums ausfüllt, dieser Körper ein zweites Material umfasst, dessen Dichte geringer ist als diejenige des ersten Materials und der Körper mindestens ein Versteifungsteil aufweist, dessen Länge im Wesentlichen gleich der Länge des Bauteils ist und das aus einem dritten Material besteht, das mit dem zweiten Material verbunden ist. Das zweite Material ist dabei ein Kunststoffschaum. Das Versteifungsteil ist aus Metall oder Kohlefasern hergestellt und weist einen hohen Elastizitätsmodul auf. Das Bauteil selbst besteht dabei aus einem Kunststoffmaterial, welches im an sich bekannten Extrusionsverfahren hergestellt werden kann.The GB 2287491 A discloses a component having a cavity and made of a first material, wherein in the cavity a stiffening body is arranged, which has substantially the same length as the component, this body fills all or only part of the cavity, this body a second Material comprises, whose density is lower than that of the first material and the body has at least one stiffening member whose length is substantially equal to the length of the component and which consists of a third material which is connected to the second material.

Es ist eine Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Temperiervorrichtung mit einem Gehäuserahmen der eingangs genannten Art mit einem Grundprofil aus Kunststoff derart weiterzubilden, dass dessen Isolationseigenschaften bei gleichzeitig hoher Stabilität verbessert sind. Der Gehäuserahmen soll dabei einen einfachen Aufbau aufweisen und kostengünstig herstellbar sein.It is an object of the present invention to develop a tempering device with a housing frame of the type mentioned above with a basic profile made of plastic such that its insulation properties are improved at the same time high stability. The case frame should have a simple structure and be inexpensive to produce.

Diese Aufgabe ist erfindungsgemäß durch eine Temperiervorrichtung umfassend einen Gehäuserahmen nach Anspruch 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by a tempering comprising a housing frame according to claim 1.

Erfindungsgemäß wurde erkannt, dass ein Rahmenprofil und/oder Pfostenprofil mit mindestens einem Paar paarweise parallel zueinander angeordneter Metallelemente, die als Armierungsbänder ausgeführt sind und über ihre gesamte Anlagefläche an einem Grundprofil aus Kunststoff mit diesem stoffschlüssig verbunden sind, trotz eines Grundprofils aus Kunststoff eine Biegesteifigkeit gegenüber einer Biegung senkrecht zur Profil-Längsachse erreichen kann, die anspruchsvolle Vorgaben erfüllt und oftmals mit der Biegesteifigkeit eines insgesamt metallischen Rahmenprofils vergleichbar ist. Erfindungsgemäß weist der Querschnitt des Rahmenprofils eine Symmetrieachse auf und die dem Temperaturmittel zwischen dem Äußeren und dem Inneren der Temperiervorrichtung entsprechende Isotherme schneidet diese Symmetrieachse rechtwinklig, wobei diese Isotherme mit den Metallelementen keinen Schnittpunkt aufweist. Auf diese Weise ist gewährleistet, dass der erfindungsgemäße Gehäuserahmen gegenüber einem insgesamt metallischen Gehäuserahmen oder den in der EP 1 801 525 A2 beschriebenen Gehäuserahmen eine vorteilhaft niedrige Wärmeleitfähigkeit aufweist. Im Vergleich zum Rahmenprofil nach der DE 10 2005 059 145 A1 hat das Rahmenprofil, da die eingesetzten Metallelemente nicht nur als Dekor- oder Wärmeleitfolien, sondern als Armierungsbänder dienen, eine nochmals deutlich verbesserte Stabilität. Insgesamt ist die Stabilität des Rahmenprofils derart verbessert, dass das erfindungsgemäße Rahmenprofil mit dem Kunststoff-Grundprofil dort zum Einsatz kommen kann, wo bisher ausschließlich Metall-Rahmenprofile eingesetzt wurden. Im Vergleich zu einem nicht mit dem mindestens einen erfindungsgemäßen Armierungsband verstärkten Rahmenprofil ergibt sich eine Erhöhung der Biegesteifigkeit um beispielsweise einen Faktor 2, wobei auch Erhöhungen um beispielsweise einen Faktor 5 oder sogar 10 möglich sind. Aufgrund des Kunststoff-Grundprofils ergibt sich auch eine verbesserte Schalldämmung.According to the invention it has been recognized that a frame profile and / or post profile with at least one pair of mutually parallel metal elements, which are designed as Armierungsbänder and are connected over its entire contact surface on a base profile made of plastic with this material, despite a basic profile made of plastic bending stiffness a bend perpendicular to the profile longitudinal axis which meets demanding specifications and is often comparable to the bending stiffness of an overall metallic frame profile. According to the invention, the cross section of the frame profile has an axis of symmetry and the isotherm corresponding to the temperature means between the exterior and the interior of the tempering device intersects this axis of symmetry at right angles, this isotherm having no intersection with the metal elements. In this way it is ensured that the housing frame according to the invention over a total metallic housing frame or in the EP 1 801 525 A2 described housing frame has an advantageously low thermal conductivity. Compared to the frame profile after the DE 10 2005 059 145 A1 has the frame profile, since the metal elements used not only serve as decorative or Wärmeleitfolien, but as Armierungsbänder, again significantly improved stability. Overall, the stability of the frame profile is improved in such a way that the frame profile according to the invention can be used with the plastic base profile where previously exclusively metal frame profiles were used. In comparison to a frame profile which is not reinforced with the at least one reinforcing strip according to the invention, the bending stiffness is increased by, for example, a factor of 2, wherein increases of, for example, a factor of 5 or even 10 are possible. Due to the plastic base profile also results in an improved sound insulation.

Dementsprechend bezieht sich die vorliegenden Erfindung auf eine Temperiervorrichtung umfassend einen Gehäuserahmen, wobei außerhalb der Temperiervorrichtung eine Temperatur T1 und innerhalb der Temperiervorrichtung eine Temperatur T2 vorliegt, wobei mindestens eine der Kanten des Gehäuserahmens von einem Rahmenprofil gebildet ist, das ein Grundprofil aus Kunststoff und mindestens ein Paar paarweise parallel zueinander angeordnete Metallelemente umfasst, die als Armierungsbänder ausgebildet sind und über ihre gesamte Anlagefläche am Grundprofil mit diesem stoffschlüssig verbunden sind, wobei der Querschnitt des Rahmenprofils eine Symmetrieachse aufweist, die Isotherme für die Temperatur (T1 - T2)/2 im Schnittpunkt mit der Symmetrieachse auf dieser orthogonal angeordnet ist und die Isotherme für die Temperatur (T1 - T2)/2 keinen Schnittpunkt mit den Metallelementen besitzt; und/oder mindestens einer der Pfosten des Gehäuserahmen von einem Pfostenprofil gebildet ist, das ein Grundprofil aus Kunststoff und mindestens ein Paar paarweise parallel zueinander angeordnete Metallelemente umfasst, die als Armierungsbänder ausgebildet sind und über ihre gesamte Anlagefläche am Grundprofil mit diesem stoffschlüssig verbunden sind, wobei der Querschnitt des Rahmenprofils eine Symmetrieachse aufweist, die Isotherme für die Temperatur (T1 - T2)/2 im Schnittpunkt mit der Symmetrieachse auf dieser orthogonal angeordnet ist und die Isotherme für die Temperatur (T1 - T2)/2 keinen Schnittpunkt mit den Metallelementen besitzt. Darüber hinaus bezieht sich die vorliegende Erfindung auf eine Temperiervorrichtung, insbesondere ein Klimagerät oder einen Gefrierschrank, der einen erfindungsgemäßen Gehäuserahmen umfasst.Accordingly, the present invention relates to a tempering device comprising a housing frame, outside of the temperature control device is a temperature T1 and within the tempering a temperature T2, wherein at least one of the edges of the housing frame is formed by a frame profile, which is a basic profile of plastic and at least one A pair of metal elements arranged in pairs parallel to each other, which are formed as reinforcing bands and are integrally connected to the base profile over its entire contact surface, wherein the cross section of the frame profile has an axis of symmetry, the isotherm for the temperature (T1 - T2) / 2 in the intersection the axis of symmetry is orthogonal thereon and the isotherm for the temperature (T1 - T2) / 2 has no point of intersection with the metal elements; and / or at least one of the posts of the housing frame is formed by a post profile comprising a base profile made of plastic and at least one pair of metal elements arranged in pairs parallel to each other, which are formed as Armierungsbänder and are connected over their entire contact surface on the base profile with this cohesively, wherein the cross section of the frame profile an axis of symmetry has the isotherm for the temperature (T1 - T2) / 2 orthogonal to it at the point of intersection with the axis of symmetry and the isotherm for the temperature (T1 - T2) / 2 has no point of intersection with the metal elements. Moreover, the present invention relates to a tempering device, in particular an air conditioner or a freezer comprising a housing frame according to the invention.

In bevorzugten Ausführungsformen sind alle Kanten des Gehäuserahmens aus derartigen Rahmenprofilen und/oder alle Pfosten des Gehäuserahmens aus derartigen Pfostenprofilen ausgebildet.In preferred embodiments, all edges of the housing frame from such frame profiles and / or all posts of the housing frame are formed from such post profiles.

Dabei kann es sich als günstig erweisen, wenn das Metallelement einen abgewinkelten Querschnitt quer zur Profilerstreckung aufweist. Ein derartiger Querschnitt des Metallelement hat sich zur Verbesserung der Biegesteifigkeit insbesondere, wenn die Biegesteifigkeit um zwei zueinander senkrecht und zur Profil-Längsachse senkrecht stehende Achsen betrachtet wird, als besonders geeignet herausgestellt.It may prove advantageous if the metal element has an angled cross-section transverse to the profile extension. Such a cross section of the metal element has been found to be particularly suitable for improving the bending stiffness, in particular when the flexural rigidity about two axes perpendicular to one another and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the profile is considered.

Es kann auch von Vorteil sein, wenn das Metallelement als Einleger im als Extrudat ausgeführten Grundprofil ausgeführt ist. Dadurch wird die Optik des jeweiligen Profils kaum und die thermischen Eigenschaften weiter verbessert.It may also be advantageous if the metal element is designed as an insert in the basic profile designed as an extrudate. As a result, the appearance of the respective profile is hardly and the thermal properties further improved.

Es kann aber auch nützlich sein, wenn das Metallelement außen auf das Grundprofil aufgesetzt ist. Ein derartiges Profil lässt sich einfach herstellen. Die erfindungsgemäße stoffschlüssige Verbindung des außen auf das Metallelement aufgesetzten Grundprofils ergibt sich beispielsweise durch Einsatz eines Haftvermittlers bzw. eines Klebers.But it can also be useful if the metal element is placed outside on the basic profile. Such a profile is easy to produce. The cohesive connection according to the invention of the base profile applied externally to the metal element is obtained, for example, by using an adhesion promoter or an adhesive.

Es kann auch hilfreich sein, wenn das Rahmenprofil und/oder das Pfostenprofil mindestens eine Hohlkammer aufweisen, wobei mindestens eines der Metallelemente eine der Hohlkammerwände begrenzt. Dies erhöht die Biegesteifigkeit bei gleichzeitiger Materialersparnis.It may also be helpful if the frame profile and / or the post profile have at least one hollow chamber, wherein at least one of the metal elements defines one of the hollow chamber walls. This increases the bending stiffness while saving material.

Alternativ zu einem außen aufgesetzten Metallelement kann das Metallelement auch vorteilhaft in eine Hohlkammer eingesetzt sein. Je nach den Anforderungen an den Wärmeleitquerschnitt bzw. an bestimmte Stabilitätsparameter des Rahmen- und/oder Pfostenprofils kann ein in eine Hohlkammer eingesetztes Metallelement zum Einsatz kommen.As an alternative to an externally placed metal element, the metal element can also be advantageously used in a hollow chamber. Depending on the requirements of the Wärmeleitquerschnitt or to certain stability parameters of the frame and / or post profile can be used in a hollow chamber metal element used.

Erfindungsgemäß sind die beiden Metallelemente im Querschnitt abgewinkelt ausgeführt, wobei eines der Metallelemente, welches Teil des Grundprofils des Rahmenprofils ist, zwei Hohlkammerwände der mindestens einen Hohlkammer begrenzt und das andere der beiden Metallelemente im Bereich einer den beiden Hohlkammerwänden gegenüberliegenden Ecke der Hohlkammer angeordnet ist. In diesem Zusammenhang setzen sich die beiden Hohlkammerwände, die die gegenüberliegende Ecke bilden, durch einen Kreuzungspunkt der beiden Hohlkammerwände hindurch fort. Durch einen derartigen Profilquerschnitt ist eine besonders hohe Biegungssteifigkeit gewährleistet.According to the invention, the two metal elements are designed angled in cross-section, wherein one of the metal elements, which is part of the basic profile of the frame profile, two hollow chamber walls bounded at least one hollow chamber and the other of the two metal elements in the region of the two hollow chamber walls opposite corner of the hollow chamber is arranged. In this context, the two hollow chamber walls that form the opposite corner continue through a crossing point of the two hollow chamber walls. By such a profile cross section a particularly high bending stiffness is ensured.

Erfindungsgemäß weist das Pfostenprofil mindestens zwei Hohlkammern auf, wobei in gegenüberliegenden Hohlkammerwänden jeweils ein Paar der Metallelemente angeordnet sind. Dadurch wird eine hohe Stabilität des Gehäuserahmens im Bereich der Pfosten erzielt, wobei die thermischen Eigenschaften des Gehäuses nicht beeinträchtigt werden.According to the invention, the post profile has at least two hollow chambers, wherein in opposite hollow chamber walls in each case a pair of the metal elements are arranged. As a result, a high stability of the housing frame is achieved in the area of the posts, wherein the thermal properties of the housing are not affected.

Um eine Gewichtsersparnis beim Gehäuserahmen zu erzielen, hat es als günstig erwiesen, wenn das Rahmenprofil und/oder das Pfostenprofil mindestens eine Hohlkammer aufweist, die nicht von Metallelementen begrenzt ist.In order to achieve weight savings in the case frame, it has proven to be advantageous if the frame profile and / or the post profile has at least one hollow chamber which is not limited by metal elements.

Es kann auch von Vorteil sein, wenn das Rahmenprofil und/oder das Pfostenprofil eine U-förmige Querschnittskontur aufweisen. Dadurch können zum Beispiel weitere Funktionskomponenten zwischen von der U-Form gebildeten Seitenschenkeln des Rahmenprofils eingebracht werden.It may also be advantageous if the frame profile and / or the post profile have a U-shaped cross-sectional contour. As a result, for example, further functional components can be introduced between side arms of the frame profile formed by the U-shape.

In der Praxis kann es sich als günstig erweisen, wenn die Metallelemente eine Dicke senkrecht zur Längserstreckung der Metallelemente von 0,1 mm bis 1,5 mm, vorzugsweise 0,3 mm bis 0,8 mm und besonders bevorzugt von etwa 0,5 mm bis 0,6 mm aufweisen. Ebenso kann es von Vorteil sein, wenn die Metallelemente senkrecht zur Längserstreckung des Rahmenprofils eine Breite im Bereich von 10 mm bis 100 mm, vorzugsweise von 10 mm bis 60 mm und besonders bevorzugt 10 bis 20 mm besitzen. Derartige Dimensionen haben sich als guter Kompromiss zwischen einer Erhöhung der Stabilität des Rahmen- bzw. Pfostenprofils einerseits und einem sparsamen Einsatz des Metallelement-Materials andererseits herausgestellt.In practice, it may prove favorable if the metal elements have a thickness perpendicular to the longitudinal extent of the metal elements of 0.1 mm to 1.5 mm, preferably 0.3 mm to 0.8 mm and particularly preferably of about 0.5 mm to 0.6 mm. It may also be advantageous if the metal elements perpendicular to the longitudinal extent of the frame profile have a width in the range of 10 mm to 100 mm, preferably from 10 mm to 60 mm and particularly preferably 10 to 20 mm. Such dimensions have proven to be a good compromise between increasing the stability of the frame or post profile on the one hand and economical use of the metal element material on the other hand.

Letztlich kann es auch hilfreich sein, wenn Stahleinsätze das Grundprofil punktuell zumindest abschnittsweise durchdringen. In besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsformen durchdringen die Stahleinsätze das Grundprofil vollständig, d.h. über dessen gesamte Länge. Derartige das Grundprofil durchsetzende Stahleinsätze erhöhen die innige Verbindung der Metallelemente mit dem Grundprofil durch einen Formschlussbeitrag zusätzlich zum Stoffschluss.Finally, it can also be helpful if steel missions at least partially penetrate the basic profile. In particularly preferred embodiments, the steel inserts fully penetrate the base profile, i. over its entire length. Such steel inserts passing through the base profile increase the intimate connection of the metal elements with the basic profile by means of a form-fitting contribution in addition to the material connection.

The housing frame 2 is constructed from correspondingly assembled frame profiles 5.

Fig. 2 zeigt schematisch den Aufbau des Gehäuserahmens 2 in einem Eckbereich des Gehäuses. In diesem Eckbereich laufen drei der Rahmenprofile 5, die entsprechende Gehäusekanten definieren, aufeinander zu. Die Rahmenprofile 5 haben alle den gleichen Profilquerschnitt. Hierzu gehört eine quadratische Profil-Hohlkammer 6, in die Verbindungsstutzen 7 eines Eckverbinders 8 eingesteckt werden können. Fig. 2 shows schematically the structure of the housing frame 2 in a corner region of the housing. In this corner region, three of the frame profiles 5, which define corresponding housing edges, converge toward one another. The frame profiles 5 all have the same profile cross-section.

The surface support elements 10 have circumferential grooves 11, the corresponding longitudinal ribs 12 of the frame profiles 5 engage behind in the assembled state. In this way, a secure hold of the surface support elements 10 is ensured on the housing frame 2.

Fig. 3 zeigt im Detail ein Querschnittsprofil einer Ausführung des Rahmenprofils 5. Dieses hat ein Grundprofil 13 aus Kunststoff. Das Grundprofil 13 ist extrudiert. Zudem hat das Rahmenprofil 5 zwei Metallelemente 14, 15, die einen Rahmenprofilquerschnitt des Rahmenprofils 5 ergänzen. Die Metallelemente 14, 15 sind jeweils außen auf das Grundprofil 13 aufgesetzt. Fig. 3 shows in detail a cross-sectional profile of an embodiment of the frame profile 5. This has a base profile 13 made of plastic. The base profile 13 is extruded. In addition, the frame profile 5 has two metal elements 14, 15, which complement a frame profile cross section of the frame profile 5. The metal elements 14, 15 are each placed outside on the base profile 13.

Die Metallelemente 14, 15 sind über ihre gesamte Anlagefläche am Grundprofil 13 mit diesem stoffschlüssig verbunden. Dabei kann ein Haftvermittler bzw. ein Kleber zum Einsatz kommen. Die Metallelemente 14, 15 können bei der Extrusionsherstellung des Grundprofils 13 mit diesem verbunden werden.The metal elements 14, 15 are connected cohesively over their entire contact surface on the base profile 13 with this. In this case, a bonding agent or an adhesive can be used. The metal elements 14, 15 can be connected in the extrusion of the base profile 13 with this.

Das Grundprofil 13 hat neben der quadratischen Hohlkammer 6 noch zwei weitere Profil-Hohlkammern 16, 17. In der Fig. 3 ist die Profil-Hohlkammer 16 rechts neben der Profil-Hohlkammer 6 und die Profil-Hohlkammer 17 ist unter der Profil-Hohlkammer 6 angeordnet.The base profile 13 has in addition to the square hollow chamber 6 two more profile hollow chambers 16, 17. In the Fig. 3 is the profile hollow chamber 16 to the right of the profile hollow chamber 6 and the profile hollow chamber 17 is disposed below the profile hollow chamber 6.

Die Metallelemente 14, 15 sind als Armierungsbänder ausgeführt, erhöhen also die Biegesteifigkeit des Rahmenprofils 5, also den Widerstand, den das Rahmenprofil 5 einer Verbiegung um eine Achse senkrecht zur Profil-Längsachse entgegenbringt.The metal elements 14, 15 are designed as Armierungsbänder, so increase the bending stiffness of the frame profile 5, so the resistance, the frame profile 5 a bending about an axis perpendicular to the profile longitudinal axis counter.

Das Metallelement 14 ist im Querschnitt abgewinkelt ausgeführt. In einem 90°-Winkelbereich 18 ist das Metallelement 14 kantenfrei gebogen um eine Außenkante 19 der Hohlkammer 6 herumgeführt. Das Metallelement 14 begrenzt zwei Hohlkammerwände 20, 21 der Hohlkammer 6. Zudem übergreift das Metallelement 14 auch noch die beiden sich an die Hohlkammer 6 nach rechts und nach unten anschließenden Hohlkammerwände 22, 23 der Hohlkammern 16, 17. Endbereiche 24, 25 des Profilquerschnitts des Metallelements 14 sind kantenfrei um 90° um von den Hohlkammern 16, 17 gebildete Außenkanten 26, 27 der Hohlkammern 16, 17 herumgeführt.The metal element 14 is designed angled in cross section. In a 90 ° angle region 18, the metal element 14 bent bent around an outer edge 19 of the hollow chamber 6 around. The metal element 14 defines two hollow chamber walls 20, 21 of the hollow chamber 6. In addition, the metal element 14 also engages over the two hollow chamber walls 22, 23 of the hollow chambers 16, 17 adjoining the hollow chamber 6 to the right and downwards Metal element 14 are edge-free by 90 ° around the hollow chambers 16, 17 formed outer edges 26, 27 of the hollow chambers 16, 17 around.

Das zweite Metallelement 15 des Rahmenprofils 5 nach Figur 5 ist ebenfalls abgewinkelt ausgeführt, wobei das Metallelement 15 in einem 90°-Winkelbereich 28 mit im Vergleich zum 90°-Winkelbereich 18 mit geringerem Krümmungsradius abgewinkelt vorliegt.The second metal element 15 of the frame profile 5 after FIG. 5 is also designed angled, wherein the metal element 15 is present in an 90 ° angle region 28 with an angle compared to the 90 ° angle region 18 with a smaller radius of curvature.

Das Metallelement 15 ist im Bereich einer den beiden Hohlkammerwänden 20, 21, die vom Metallelement 14 begrenzt werden, gegenüberliegenden Ecke 29 angeordnet. Zwei Hohlkammerwände 30, 31 der quadratischen Hohlkammer 6, die diese Ecke 29 bilden, setzen sich durch einen Kreuzungspunkt der beiden Hohlkammerwände 30, 31 hindurch fort. Das Metallelement 15 ist in fortgesetzte Abschnitte 32, 33 der beiden Hohlkammerwände 30, 31 so eingesetzt, dass sich die beiden abgewinkelten Metallelemente 14, 15 zur gleichen Seite hin, nämlich in der Fig. 3 nach rechts unten, öffnen.The metal element 15 is arranged in the region of a corner 29 opposite the two hollow chamber walls 20, 21 which are delimited by the metal element 14. Two hollow chamber walls 30, 31 of the square hollow chamber 6, which form this corner 29, continue through a crossing point of the two hollow chamber walls 30, 31. The metal element 15 is inserted into continued sections 32, 33 of the two hollow chamber walls 30, 31 so that the two angled metal elements 14, 15 towards the same side, namely in the Fig. 3 to the bottom right, open.

Die beiden fortgesetzten Abschnitte 32, 33 begrenzen jeweils mit einem Abschnitt Schmalseiten der rechteckig ausgeführten Hohlkammern 16, 17. Das Metallelement 15 begrenzt daher die von den fortgesetzten Abschnitten 32, 33 gebildeten Hohlkammerwände der Hohlkammern 16, 17.The two continued sections 32, 33 each delimit with a section narrow sides of the hollow cavities 16, 17 which are of rectangular design. The metal element 15 therefore delimits the hollow chamber walls of the hollow chambers 16, 17 formed by the continued sections 32, 33.

Das Metallelement 34 folgt dabei in einem 90°-Winkelbereich 35 der Innenecke der Hohlkammer 6, die nach außen die Außenkante 19 bildet. Dabei hat der 90°-Winkelbereich 35 des Metallelements 34 einen Krümmungsradius, der kleiner ist als der Krümmungsradius des 90°-Winkelbereichs 18 des Metallelements 14 des Rahmenprofils 5 nach Fig. 3, gleichzeitig aber größer ist als der 90°-Winkelbereich 28 des Metallelements 15. Die beiden Profilschenkel des Metallelements 34 überdecken etwa drei Viertel der inneren Hohlkammerwände 20, 21 der Hohlkammer 6.Instead of the metal element 14, the frame profile 5 after Fig. 4 an angled metal element 34. This is inserted inside the hollow chamber 6. The metal element 34 follows in a 90 ° angle region 35 of the inner corner of the hollow chamber 6, which forms the outer edge 19 to the outside. In this case, the 90 ° angle region 35 of the metal element 34 has a radius of curvature which is smaller than the radius of curvature of the 90 ° angle region 18 of the metal element 14 of the frame profile 5 Fig. 3 , but at the same time larger than the 90 ° angle region 28 of the metal element 15. The two profile legs of the metal element 34 cover about three quarters of the inner hollow chamber walls 20, 21 of the hollow chamber. 6

Auch bei der Ausführung nach Fig. 4 öffnen sich die beiden abgewinkelten Metallelemente 34 und 15 zur gleichen Seite hin, nämlich in der Fig. 4 nach rechts unten.Also in the execution after Fig. 4 open the two angled metal elements 34 and 15 to the same side, namely in the Fig. 4 to the bottom right.

Im Querschnitt weist das Pfostenprofil 5 eine Symmetrieachse 62 auf, diagonal durch die Profil-Hohlkammer 6 verläuft. Die dem Temperaturmittel zwischen dem Äußeren und dem Inneren der Temperiervorrichtung entsprechende Isotherme schneidet diese Symmetrieachse 62 im rechten Winkel, wobei diese Isotherme mit den Metallelementen 15, 34 keinen Schnittpunkt besitzt.In cross-section, the post profile 5 has an axis of symmetry 62 which extends diagonally through the profile hollow chamber 6. The isotherm corresponding to the temperature means between the exterior and the interior of the tempering device intersects this axis of symmetry 62 at right angles, this isotherm having no intersection with the metal elements 15, 34.
