Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a refrigerator door for closing a cold room of the refrigerator.
  • Refrigerators usually have a door for firing a cold room of the refrigerator.
  • the refrigerator door is often pivotally mounted.
  • the refrigeration device door is widely used with a sheet-metal door panel, which is bordered at the top and bottom by door closure strips.
  • Existing refrigeration appliance doors are designed so that the door closure strip with a door panel embracing groove receives this.
  • the door closure strip thereby projects beyond the door panel to the front, i. away from the refrigerator to be closed.
  • the door closure strip is thus visible from the front.
  • a forward facing refrigerator front surface, which is completely formed by the door panel, is therefore not feasible.
  • the homogeneous and transition-free design of the refrigerator door limits.
  • the publication JP 5 288 458 A shows a door for a refrigerator comprising an inner plate and an outer plate, wherein the outer plate is formed of resin.
  • the Utility Model DE 20 2007 007 321 U1 shows a household appliance comprising a door having an outer wall.
  • the outer wall has at the upper edge of a web which is received in a groove of a closure element.
  • DE 20 2007 007 321 U1 discloses a refrigerator door according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the present invention relates to a refrigerator door for closing a cold room of a refrigerator with a door panel and at least one door closure strip, the is arranged on the edge edge of the door panel.
  • the door seal strips are struck, for example, when the refrigerator door is ready for operation at the top and bottom of the refrigeration appliance door and delimit the door panel between them.
  • the door completion strips are made of plastic.
  • the door closure strip has a first along the door closure strip extending first rib, with which it engages in a groove in the door panel. The door closure strip can be locked by the engagement of the first rib in the groove with the door panel against slipping.
  • a refrigeration appliance is understood in particular to be a household refrigeration appliance, that is to say a refrigeration appliance which is used for household purposes or possibly also in the gastronomy sector, and in particular for storing food and / or drinks in household quantities at specific temperatures, such as, for example, a refrigerator, a freezer , a fridge freezer or a wine storage cabinet.
  • the door closing strip when the refrigerating appliance is set up ready for operation and the refrigerator door is mounted on the refrigerating appliance, the door closing strip extends substantially horizontally above or below the door panel.
  • the horizontal orientation allows easy fitting in a cuboid shaped refrigerator.
  • Such a two-sided enclosure of the door panel allows a particularly good bending stiffness of the refrigerator door.
  • both top and bottom of a door closure strip with a handle portion, such as a recessed grip are provided for gripping the refrigerator door by an operator.
  • the door closure strip with the first rib is inserted into the groove in the door panel.
  • a connector is simple and inexpensive to implement.
  • a play-free holding the first rib in the groove is given when the first rib is clamped press-fitting into the groove.
  • the first rib is glued in the groove.
  • the door seal strip which is made separately from the door panel, can thus be connected to the door panel in a durable way. In combination with the plug-in connection of the first rib and the groove results in a simple mountability with great strength of the connection of door closure strip and door panel in the assembled state.
  • the door closure strip is latched and / or screwed to the door panel.
  • the locking allows easy fixation of the door edge strip on the door panel without the use of special tools. It can be realized a permanent non-releasing connection.
  • the screw allows a later release of the connection of door seal strip and door panel, so that later the door closure strip can be replaced or accessibility in case of repair by unscrewing the door closure strip is possible.
  • a second rib is provided on the end strip, which runs along the end strip.
  • the second rib allows additional stabilization of the end strip and in particular an increase in their flexural rigidity.
  • the second rib runs closer to the cooling space than the first rib, for example, when the refrigeration device is installed ready for operation and the refrigerator door is mounted and closed on the refrigeration device.
  • the second rib thereby extends in the area between the door panel and the cold room.
  • a recessed grip is provided in the door closure strip.
  • the recessed handle allows operator intervention, allowing for good grip on the door sill panel. This makes it particularly easy to open the refrigerator door.
  • the recessed grip has, for example, a corner-free oval shape, so that it is comfortable for an operator to grasp.
  • the groove in the door panel is realized as a bay by bending the door panel.
  • the groove can be produced particularly inexpensively.
  • the use of an additional molding with the groove can be saved.
  • the groove realized by bending the door panel provides good elasticity against buckling.
  • the first rib of a door closure strip can be clamped well in the groove. A easy-to-attach backlash-free connection of door seal strip and door panel is made possible by this arrangement.
  • the groove is bounded on one side by a folding of the door panel, in particular by substantially parallel layers of the door panel.
  • the folding is formed for example on the side facing away from the cooling chamber of the groove.
  • the folding limits the door panel and there is no simple sheet metal edge outside on the side facing away from the refrigerator.
  • the fold is more rigid than a simple sheet metal edge and therefore less likely to be damaged or bent.
  • the door panel protrudes in its longitudinal extent, in particular viewed from a direction orthogonal to the longitudinal extent of the door panel, beyond the door closure strip.
  • the door closure strip is invisible to a viewer from a direction opposite the refrigerator compartment to be closed, since it is hidden by the door panel.
  • mechanical stresses e.g. in the form of impacts by the operator, on the upstream door panel. Loads due to external mechanical action on the door closing strip are avoided. Damage or loosening of the door closing strip is thereby avoided.
  • an end portion of the door panel is guided between the ribs of the door closure strip ends there.
  • This end portion engages together, for example, with the folding of the door panel forming the groove the first rib.
  • the bent end portion may further resiliently spring, so that an elastic clamping of the first rib in the groove is made possible. This allows a backlash-free fit of the first rib in the groove and prevents noise during operation by moving against each other door panel and door closure strip.
  • FIG. 1 shows a schematic perspective view of a refrigerator door 1 in the region of an upper door closing strip 6 according to a first embodiment.
  • the refrigeration device door 1 is used to close a cooling space 30 of a refrigeration device, which is arranged on the left above the refrigerator door 1 in the illustration.
  • the refrigerator door 1 has a door panel 2 to which in this embodiment, on the upper side of a door seal strip 6 is attached.
  • the door panel 2 has in this embodiment vertically extending chamfers 10a, 10b, 10c, 10d, which serve to stiffen the door panel 2.
  • the door seal strip 6 runs in the image from bottom left to top right. It is attached to the upper edge of the door panel 2. Therefore, the door panel 2 of the refrigerator door 1 extends downwards from the doorcombination strip 6 in the picture.
  • the directional information refer to the representation of a ready-chipped refrigerator door 1.
  • On the door closure strip 6 is provided at the top of a recessed grip 9, which allows the operator to find good grip with the fingers on the door closing strip 6, to open or close the refrigerator door 1.
  • the door closure strip 6 has depressions 16a, 16b.
  • Functional parts such as lighting elements, are integrated.
  • closable recesses may be provided in this area, which allow access to the interior of the refrigerator door 1, for example, for maintenance purposes.
  • the door panel 2 has in this embodiment, a circumferential bead 11, which is realized by forming the door panel 2. By means of the bead 11, an improved rigidity of the door panel 2 adjacent the door closure strip 6 is achieved.
  • FIG. 2 shows a schematic perspective view of a section of the refrigerator door 1 according to the embodiment Fig. 1 , In this presentation, the focus is on the connection of door panel 2 and door seal 6.
  • the refrigerator door 1 is arranged so that the refrigerator compartment 30 of the refrigerator is located on the left of the refrigerator door 1 in the picture.
  • the door panel 2 extends in the picture down.
  • the door seal strip 6 has a first rib 7, with which it protrudes into a groove 3 in the door panel 2.
  • the groove 3 in the door panel 2 is formed by the door panel 2 having a fold 4, which merges into an end section 5 after bending.
  • the groove 3 is thus bounded laterally by the fold 4 and the end portion 5.
  • the first rib 7 is enclosed in the groove 3 by the end portion 5 and the fold 4.
  • the rib 7 is clamped in the groove 3. This allows them to be kept free of play there.
  • the connection of door panel 2 and door closing strip 6 is easily realized by joining, wherein the first rib 7 is pushed into the groove 3.
  • a second rib 8 is provided on the door closure strip 6. The second rib 8 extends between the first rib 7 and the cooling space 30 along the door closure strip 6. The second rib 8 makes it possible to increase the bending stiffness of the door seal strip 6.
  • FIG. 3 shows a schematic perspective view of a section of a refrigerator door 1 according to a second embodiment.
  • the illustrated elements correspond to those from Fig. 2 , only the geometric structure is different.
  • the reference numerals are therefore made Fig. 2 already known.
  • the door panel 2 protrudes in this embodiment in its longitudinal extent, viewed from a direction orthogonal to the longitudinal extent of the door panel 2, beyond the door closing strip 6 addition.
  • the uppermost region of the refrigerator door 1 is therefore formed here by the door panel 2.
  • the door panel 2 When viewed from the side facing away from the cooling chamber 30, the door panel 2 therefore conceals the Door seal strip 6.
  • Stiffening ribs 18a, 18b extend between the door panel 2 and a door panel 2 opposite substantially vertically extending portion 19 of the door closing strip 6.
  • the stiffening ribs allow an increase in the bending stiffness of the door seal strip 6.
  • the respective trough 16a, 16b can be made more robust. It is supported by the stiffening ribs 18a, 18b.
