Definitions

  • the invention relates to a refrigerator with an ice dispenser or a water dispenser.
  • the invention further relates to a refrigeration device ensemble, comprising two refrigeration devices, of which the first refrigeration device has an ice dispenser and the second refrigeration device has a water dispenser.
  • Refrigeration appliances in particular refrigeration appliances designed as household appliances, are known and are used for household management in households or in the catering sector in order to store perishable foods and / or drinks at certain temperatures.
  • Such refrigeration devices are increasingly provided with an ice dispenser for dispensing water ice cubes and / or crushed / crushed ice. Furthermore, refrigeration devices of this type are additionally provided with a water dispenser for dispensing cooled water. Coverings with openings are provided for draining melt or drip water. In addition, such an ice dispenser and water dispenser have different visual appearances, which affects the overall visual impression, in particular when two refrigeration appliances are combined to form a refrigeration appliance ensemble, one of the refrigeration appliances having an ice dispenser and the other refrigeration appliance having a water dispenser.
  • US 2006/144074 A1 discloses a refrigerator with a front protruding dispenser that extends in front of a front panel of the door.
  • the door has an outer door pan with an outer door cavity and an inner liner with an inner liner cavity.
  • An ice gutter can be routed through the inner liner cavity and the outer door cavity to convey ice to the front protruding dispenser.
  • the dispenser can have a housing that positions a control panel and a water outlet in front of the front panel.
  • the refrigerator includes a removable drip tray or a compressible drip tray.
  • DE 86 34 579 U1 discloses a refrigerator door with a dispensing device for beverages arranged on the front side thereof in an externally accessible niche, under which one Drip tray is removably inserted at the bottom of the niche, the drip tray being provided as a flat trough with a removable rust-like insert on which at least one drinking vessel can be placed.
  • US 4,133,456 A discloses a temperature controlled liquid dispenser which comprises a substantially vertical partition and a trough with a grid.
  • JP H11 248314 A discloses a refrigerator with a liquid dispenser installed in a door.
  • CA 2 607 853 A1 discloses a refrigerator with a liquid dispenser installed in a door, which has a rust-like cover for a drip tray.
  • JP S49 87491 U discloses a tea dispenser with a drip tray that includes a perforated cover.
  • the present invention is based on the finding that a particularly optically appealing appearance can be achieved if the ice dispensing and the water dispensing are optically matched to one another.
  • the object according to the invention is achieved by a refrigeration device in which a water guide surface is assigned to the ice dispensing or the water dispensing is.
  • a water guide surface is assigned to the ice dispensing or the water dispensing is.
  • a refrigeration device is understood in particular to mean a household appliance, i.e. a refrigeration device that is used for household management in the household or in the catering sector and in particular serves to store food and / or beverages at certain temperatures, such as, for example, a refrigerator, a freezer, a Fridge-freezer, a freezer or a wine fridge.
  • a cover is assigned to the drip pan. This gives the technical advantage that the drip pan is hidden from view by a user.
  • a gap for the passage of melt or dripping water is formed between the water guide surface and the cover.
  • the water guiding surface has a slope leading to the collecting trough. This achieves the technical advantage that melt or drip water automatically flows into the sump by gravity.
  • the water guiding surface has a positive slope in the direction of the refrigerator depth. This achieves the technical advantage that this orientation of the slope of the water guiding surface provides particularly optically appealing ice and water expenditure.
  • the cover is designed as a second water guiding surface. This has the technical advantage that melt or drip water is led from the cover into the drip pan.
  • the second water guiding surface has a slope leading to the collecting trough. This achieves the technical advantage that melt or drip water automatically flows into the sump by gravity.
  • the cover has a negative slope in the depth direction of the refrigerator. This achieves the technical advantage that the different orientation of the slopes of the first and second water guiding surfaces provides particularly optically appealing ice and water outputs.
  • the water guiding surface is designed for guiding melt or drip water into a collecting trough of the ice dispenser or the water dispenser. This has the technical advantage that melt or drip water can collect in the drip pan and be stored there until the drip pan is emptied.
  • the water guiding surface forms a rear wall of the ice dispenser or the water dispenser. This has the technical advantage that no additional component has to be provided as a water guiding surface. This reduces the manufacturing effort.
  • the water guiding surface is concavely curved on the outside. This has the technical advantage that melt or dripping water in a top section of the rear wall experiences a greater acceleration due to gravity than in sections of the back wall which are below the upper section in the vertical direction of the refrigerator.
  • the second water guiding surface is flat. This has the technical advantage that the cover is particularly easy to manufacture.
  • the first and / or second water guiding surface has a lotus coating. This has the technical advantage that the water conductivity is improved and the formation of water spots which impair the visual appearance is prevented.
  • the ice or water dispenser is arranged on the outside of the refrigerator. This achieves the technical advantage of being removed of water ice cubes and / or of crushed / crushed ice from the ice dispenser or of cooled water from the water dispenser is possible without opening the inner container of the refrigerator, whereby the non-opening of the inner container prevents the penetration of warm air and thus the energy consumption of the Refrigeration device is reduced.

  • Fig. 4 shows that for this purpose the rear wall 204 has a slope leading to the collecting trough 214, so that melt water flows from the rear wall 204 into the collecting trough 214 due to gravity.
  • the rear wall 204 is concavely curved on the outside in the present exemplary embodiment. In an upper section of the rear wall 204, melt water experiences a greater acceleration due to gravity than in sections of the rear wall 204 which lie below the upper section in the vertical direction Z of the refrigerator.
