Definitions

  • the invention relates to a household appliance with a door handle according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a door handle which can be attached as a design element on the door front of the appliance door and multi-part composed of plastic and / or metal elements edge.
  • US 4 922 576 A is a household appliance according to the preamble of claim 1 known.
  • DE 20 2007 013 032 U1 is a generic household appliance known whose appliance door has such a door handle.
  • the door handle consists of a vertically arranged hollow cylindrical handle tube, which is inserted at its upper and lower end faces between handle holders, which are mounted on the door.
  • Each of the handle holder has a directly in contact with the door front, solid body, which is extended with a narrow mounting leg in the Bautiefenraum backwards, which engages around the outer edge of the door side.
  • the clamped between the mounting leg and the main body of the handle holder inner angle range is contoured fit in close contact with the outer panel of the door.
  • the handle holder is also on its mounting leg with the door side edge in a tight screw connection.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a household appliance with a door whose door handle, despite component and manufacturing tolerances optically flawless and easy to install.
  • the invention is based on a door handle for a household appliance door, which has a handle which is mounted on at least one handle holder on the visible outer wall of the appliance door.
  • a compensating material or a compensating element is arranged between the handle holder and the appliance door outer wall, which closes a tolerance formed gap formed between the appliance door outer wall and the handle holder.
  • Optically disadvantageous visual joints or gaps between the outer door panel and the handle holder are thus filled by the compensating element.
  • the compensating element In order for the compensating element to fit in shape and to fit gap-free between the appliance door outer wall and the handle holder, the compensating element should have a component rigidity which is greatly reduced compared to the handle holder.
  • the domestic appliance according to the invention is used for housekeeping and can be, for example, a refrigerator, such as a refrigerator, a freezer, a freezer, a wine storage cabinet or a fridge freezer.
  • the compensating element has a reduced inherent rigidity compared to the component-rigid structure of the handle holder. In this way, during the assembly of the handle holder on the appliance door, the compensating element under deformation to fill a tolerance caused gap. It is particularly favorable when the compensating element is made elastically yielding, for example as a rubber-like plastic material. With its help, a gap can be reliably closed, the gap width varies due to external actuation forces in the course of the service life of the refrigerator.
  • pressure points can be avoided in the door panel.
  • Such pressure points arise when the handle holder is pressed with too high mounting forces against the door panel.
  • such pressure points are visible in particular in a subsequent stop change on the door. to Avoiding such pressure points, at least a portion of the assembly forces can be absorbed by deformation of the compensation element during assembly of the handle holder with the door, whereby a deformation of the door outer panel is prevented.
  • the compensating element may have at least one partially circumferential edge sealing lip. This is reinforced in the assembly position in sealing contact with the door outer wall.
  • the compensating element can be arranged in any desired manner between the handle holder and the outer wall of the appliance door. However, it is preferred in terms of component reduction if the compensation element together with the handle holder forms a pre-assembly unit. For this purpose, the compensation element can be preassembled as a separate component on the handle holder. Alternatively, the compensation element can be integrated in the same material and / or in one piece on the grip holder.
  • the compensating element is designed plate-shaped.
  • the compensation element can cover the entire surface of the device door outer wall facing side of the handle holder.
  • the compensating element can preferably be manufactured as a separate component independently of the grip holder and only then assembled with the grip holder to a pre-assembly.
  • the compensating element has on its side remote from the appliance door outer wall side an insertion contour which can be inserted into a corresponding guide of the base body. So that the compensation element remains secure in position in the main body guide, a securing element can be provided, with which the installation position of the compensating element is secured.
  • the securing element may have a stop portion which prevents slipping out of the compensating element from the main body guide.
  • the securing element can be mounted by way of example on the handle holder, in particular in a non-detachable latching connection.
  • a base body of the handle holder may be hollow with an inside mounting space, are arranged in the fastening elements, in particular locking elements for mounting the securing element on the base body.
  • the securing element may comprise elastically resilient latching tabs, for example, which are deformable upon insertion into the mounting space with the construction of an elastic restoring force and can snap into the recesses provided in the mounting space upon reaching the construction position of the securing element.
  • the securing element may be a plate-shaped wall element which completely covers the access opening to the mounting space of the main body of the handle holder in the installed position, whereby the mounting space of the handle holder is sealed from the outside.
  • the manually exerted during opening and closing the door actuating forces are introduced via the handle on the at least one grip holder and further into the door.
  • a permanently play-free door handle holder is of great relevance for a perfect door operation.
  • a particularly component-rigid design of the handle holder is preferred.
  • the grip holder may have a patch on the door front of the door base body which is extended in the Bautiefencardi with a mounting leg, which is mounted on the side narrow door side edge.
  • the mounting leg of the handle holder can be tightened by a fixed screw on the door edge, which can result in particular in the context of large-scale production in the Bautiefenraum y manufacturing tolerances that lead to a gap between the body and the door.
  • the base body may be hollow with an inside mounting space.
  • the main body may be exemplary box-shaped, with horizontal in the installed position cover and bottom walls and vertical side walls.
  • Within the mounting space of the main body can preferably view protected fasteners, in particular locking elements, be arranged, on which the securing element can be mounted.
  • the compensating element extends into the inner corner region between the base body and the mounting leg. In the assembly position, therefore, the compensation element comprises the door outer edge between the door front and the door side edge.
  • the handle holder and the handle can be brought into a plug connection to each other, in which a plug-in projection is inserted into a socket.
  • the existing between the handle holder and the handle connector reliably maintained, it is advantageous to additionally secure them, for example, by pressing forces between the socket and the plug-in approach. If the pressing forces are too high, however, the radially outer plug-in receptacle can rupture or break.
  • the existing securing element can be formed with an additional locking tab, which engages positively with a built-fuse element in a corresponding recess of the handle and thereby blocks detachment of the handle from the handle holder.
  • the appliance door outer wall may have an embossing, on the embossing floor of the handle holder is supported with the interposition of the compensating element.
  • the embossing depth of the embossing is preferably dimensioned such that the compensating element is immersed in the embossing substantially protected from sight.
  • the circumferential embossing edge of the outer contour of the compensating element follow contour-matched. In this way, the compensating element is arranged in the assembly position almost protected from the outside.
  • Such a view-protected arrangement of the compensation element is particularly advantageous when the grip holder is painted. In this case, it is not necessary to color the light-proof compensating element with this color. A painting of the compensation element would prohibit anyway, since the paint would flake off again when squeezing the compensation element.
  • Fig. 1 is shown in a partial view from the front a refrigeration device with a about a vertical pivot axis S laterally hinged to the device body of the refrigerator appliance door 1.
  • the appliance door 1 has in the device side direction x opposite to the pivot axis S a door handle 3.
