Definitions
- the present invention relates to an ice maker for a refrigeration device, in particular a household refrigerating appliance, with a tray pivotally and twistably suspended in a frame about an axis.
- a refrigeration device in particular a household refrigerating appliance
- a tray pivotally and twistably suspended in a frame about an axis.
- Such an icemaker is off, for example
- the tray of this conventional ice maker is filled with water in a horizontal position, here referred to as the freezing position, and after freezing it is pivoted to a demolding position with its top facing downwards.
- the tray By a pivot drive on a first end face of the tray engages while a projection of an opposite end face abuts in the demolding position against a stop of the frame, the tray can after reaching the
- Entform ein be deformed or twisted in itself, whereby the Eiszhoue formed in its subjects are expelled.
- a considerable torque may be required because the ice contained in the compartments also contributes to the rigidity of the tray. Accordingly vigorously, a motor must be dimensioned, which drives the movement of the tray. Such a motor is expensive and takes up space in the refrigerator, which is lost as storage for refrigerated goods.
- Object of the present invention is to provide an ice maker, in which a small drive torque is sufficient to demold finished ice safely.
- the tray is coupled to a drive via a transmission with position-dependent variable transmission ratio in an ice maker with at least one in a frame about an axis pivotally and twistably suspended tray.
- a transmission can make the difference between that required to drive the pivoting movement and to twist the tray
- Torque can be reduced. Therefore, the maximum torque to be applied for demolding can be reduced in comparison with a drive acting directly on the axis of the tray, without necessarily increasing the rotational travel to be covered by the drive.
- the transmission is an unevenly translating transmission, such as a four-bar linkage or the like. If the maximum torque to be applied is reduced to a value that can be applied by a user with low body forces without difficulty, the motor can be replaced by a manual drive via a handle. This saves both considerable costs and space in the refrigeration device. In a position of the transmission in which the tray is twisted, that should
- the gear of the ice maker may comprise a lever which is pivotable about an axis offset to the pivot axis of the tray and is in contact with a surface of the tray in force.
- the handle can represent a free end of this lever.
- the freedom of rotation of the lever is preferably smaller than that of the tray, to make it easier for a user to apply the required rotation to the drive without having to engage in the meantime.
- a small freedom of movement of the lever can also simplify the construction of a housing of the ice maker, since no large, stability affecting housing opening is required, in which the lever is movable.
- the Ice maker by access from above.
- the ice can be quickly and conveniently demolded by the user the thumb of a hand on a flank of the
- the handle grabs and pulls to the flank.
- the handle is received in a recess at the top of the ice maker;
- the placement of the icemaker is simplified in a refrigerator.
- the ice maker can be mounted approximately immediately below a horizontal surface in the interior of a refrigerator, such as under the ceiling, under a refrigerated goods or under a horizontal evaporator, or if it is placed freely in the refrigerator, other refrigerated goods can be stacked on it.
- a variability of the transmission ratio can be achieved in particular in that a contact point at which touch the lever and the surface is radially movable on the surface of the tray.
- the transmission comprises interacting wheels or wheel segments with complementary non-circular rolling circles.
- the rolling circles may take the form of Archimedean spirals.
- a container for finished ice is preferably releasably attached to an underside of the frame. If the container is in place, the
- a top of the frame conveniently carries a lid.
- the lid hinders the spread of water vapor from the tray in the vicinity of the tray
- the tray can be filled with water without removing the lid.
- the ice maker has a removable measuring container whose capacity is that of at least one tray or an integer
- Fraction of the capacity of the at least one tray corresponds.
- the ice maker in a household refrigeration appliance is applicable and operable.
- Fig. 1 is a perspective view of an ice maker according to the invention
- Fig. 2 is an exploded view of the ice maker of Fig. 1;
- Fig. 3 is a view of a household refrigerator with it mounted
- FIG. 4 shows a cross section of the ice maker according to a first
- Fig. 5 shows a cross section of the ice maker according to a second
- Fig. 6 shows a cross section of the ice maker according to a third
- the ice maker shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 has a substantially parallelepiped, plastic injection-molded frame 1 open at the top and bottom.
- a lid 2 which closes the open top of the frame 1, has two engaging from above into the frame 1 Walls 3, 4, in which bearings for a between the walls 3, 4 extending, about a running in the longitudinal direction of the ice maker axis
- pivoting tray 5 is held.
- the molded of an elastic plastic tray 5 is divided in a conventional manner into a plurality of compartments 6, which are provided to receive freezing water. Partitions between the compartments 6 are also provided in known and not shown manner at their upper edges with notches to allow an overflow from a compartment 6 in an adjacent, as soon as in one compartment 6, the water level rises above the lowest point of such a notch , A target filling amount of the tray 5 is set so that all compartments 6 communicate with each other via notches.
- a basin 7 is recessed in the lid 2.
- a drain 8 of the basin 7 ends above the compartments 6 of the tray 5, so that water poured into the basin 7 safely enters the compartments 6.
- the drain 6 can several
- each such opening has openings over different compartments 6, to ensure a rapid flow of water.
- the cross-section of each such opening is smaller than that of the compartments 6 interconnecting notches, so that via one of these openings water can not flow into a compartment 6 faster than it can escape to neighboring compartments via the notches. This ensures that the tray 5 can not overflow as long as the filled amount of water does not exceed its capacity.
- the drain can also be designed as a slot extending over several compartments 6. This has the advantage of reducing the likelihood of blockage by frozen water in the outflow.
- a recess 9 is provided at the top of the lid 2, in which a slider 10 is housed.
- the slider is used for pivoting and twisting of the tray 5, as will be explained in more detail later. In its rest position shown in Fig. 1 and 2, the slider is not on the top of the lid over.
- Recess 12 is formed, which is provided to receive a measuring cup 13.
- the Shape of the recess 12 is substantially complementary to that of the measuring cup 13 to receive this when not in use substantially form-fitting, except for a finger recess 14 which is recessed from the front edge 1 1 to a user gripping a side wall 15 of the measuring cup 13 facilitate when placed in the recess 12.
- the capacity of the measuring cup 13 corresponds to that of the tray 5. Therefore, it is sufficient to fill the tray 5 with water, the measuring cup 13 once to fill exactly and to empty it into the basin 7. In order to save space, it would also be conceivable to set the volume of the measuring cup 13 as one-ninth of the volume of the tray 5, where n is a small natural number. It would then be filled n times to fill the tray 5 of the measuring cup 13 and emptied into the basin 7.
- the frame 1 comprises two longitudinal walls 16, a rear wall 17 and an end wall 18 which, when the ice maker is mounted in a refrigeration appliance, faces the door thereof. At an upper edge of the longitudinal walls 16 outwardly projecting horizontal webs 19 form a support surface for the cover 2. One upwardly and forwardly open
- Concave 20 of the end wall 18 is supplemented with the downwardly open, hollow front edge 1 1 of the lid 2 to an undercut recess at which a user pack for a complete ice maker and from the refrigerator
- each longitudinal wall 16 can pull out or lift the lid 2 from the withdrawn icemaker by attacking from below, over the cavity 20, at the edge 1 1.
- a cross-sectionally C-shaped profile 21 is formed at a lower edge of each longitudinal wall 16.
- the profiles 21 limit facing grooves.
- These C-profiles 21 and their grooves are dimensioned to slidably receive webs 22, which are integrally formed on upper edges of side walls 23 of a substantially box-shaped collecting container 24.
- Fig. 3 shows a perspective view of a refrigeration device such as a
- a storage chamber of the freezer is in a conventional manner in several subjects 25 divided, of which the upper can be closed by a flap 26, while in the lower compartments 25 pull-out boxes 27 can be accommodated.
- One of the flaps 26 is shown in the open position, and in the rear compartment 25 of the icemaker 28 is housed.
- Attached to a ceiling 29 of the compartment 25 are two L-profiles 30 extending in the depth direction, one of which is hidden by the ice maker 28 in the view of FIG.
- Horizontal legs of the two L-profiles 30 form bearing surfaces on which the webs 19 of the frame 1 slidably rest in the depth direction.
- the collecting container 24 is provided on its underside with a handle recess 32. It is easier to move in the C-profiles 21 of the frame 1 than the entire ice maker 28 on the L-profiles 30, so that when pulling on the collecting container 24, the frame 1 remains at rest.
- the ice maker 28 can be withdrawn as a whole from the L-profiles 30, so that it stows when not in use outside the freezer and thus freed up space can be used elsewhere. Due to the same dimensions of the webs 19 and 22, it is also possible to suspend the collecting container 24 to the L-profiles 30 directly and by itself. Thus, by removing only the frame 1 and the lid 2, much of the space occupied by the icemaker 28 in the compartment 25 can be freed, but finished ice cubes will still have a firm place in the receptacle 24 therein.
- the ice maker 28 can also be placed freely in one of the compartments 25 or in one of the pull-out boxes 27. It is conceivable, in particular, to divide a compartment for a drawer into a compartment which receives the ice maker in a form-fitting manner and gives it stability when force is exerted on the slide 10 for removal from the mold.
- 4 shows a schematic section through the ice maker 28 along a plane that runs transversely to the pivot axis of the tray 5 through the depression 9. It can be seen here that the slider 10 is part of a one-armed lever 33 which is pivotable about an axis 35 which is displaced parallel to the pivot axis 34 of the tray 5 and extends through a slot 36 at the bottom of the recess 9.
- Both axes 34, 35 are fixed to the between the tray 5 and the lever 33 extending wall 4.
- the lever 33 is shown in two positions, a rest position inclined to the right, in which it rests against a stop at the right end of the slot 36, and a position for removal to the left pivoted position. Accordingly, the tray 5 is shown in two positions, the horizontal freezing position and the opposite of about 150 ° counterclockwise pivoted Entform ein.
- the tray 5 is by a spring, not shown, in the direction of the freezing position
- FIG. 5 shows, in a section analogous to FIG. 4, a second embodiment of the invention
- the pin 46 is here replaced by a wing 37 which extends in the axial direction, transverse to the cutting plane of the observer or the wall 4 facing end face of the tray over the wall 4 of time and by the above-mentioned return spring against a shoulder 38 of Lever 33 is held pressed.
- the tray 5 In a second position of the lever 33 shown in Fig. 5, the tray 5 is pivoted about the freezing position by about 150 ° counterclockwise, and facing away from the lever 33 front side of the tray 5 abuts against a stop 39, of the rear wall 3 of the lid 2 forth projects forward. If the lever 33 is pulled beyond the position shown in the counterclockwise direction, the lever 33 facing the end face of the tray 5, and the shoulder 38 slides on the wing 37 to the outside. Since the side facing away from the lever 33 front side of the tray 5 can no longer follow the rotation, this is subject to an increasing distortion, through which the finished pieces of ice are forced out of the compartments 6. The further the lever 33 is pulled, the greater the distance of his shoulder 38 from the
- FIG. 6 shows a section analogous to FIG. 4 according to a third embodiment of the invention.
- the lever 33 is here rotatably connected to a first wheel 50, which is toothed like a gear on a part 51 of its circumference, in which this part 51, however, does not have the shape of a circle, but that of an Archimedean spiral.
- the spiral extends here over an angle of about 60 °: the teeth of the peripheral part 51 mesh with those of a part 53 of a second wheel 52, which is rotatably connected to the tray 5.
- the part 53 has the shape of an Archimedean spiral, the slopes of the two spirals are coordinated so that their teeth remain in each position in mutual engagement. According to that
- the two wheels 50, 52 form a gear whose transmission ratio in the illustrated rest position of the lever 33 and in the freezing position of the tray is initially significantly greater than 1, so that the tray rotates rapidly in an initial phase of its movement, and with increasing deflection of the Lever 33 is always smaller and eventually less than 1, so that the force required to twist the tray without effort can be exercised.
