Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein zweitüriges Kältegerät, insbesondere ein Haushaltskältegerät, nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1.The invention relates to a two-door refrigeration appliance, in particular a household refrigerating appliance, according to the preamble of claim 1.

Ein solches zweitüriges Kältegerät kann beispielhaft als eine Kühl-/Gefrierkombination mit einer unteren und einer oberen Gerätetür ausgeführt sein, die jeweils voneinander getrennte Kühlräume verschließen.Such a two-door refrigeration device can be embodied, for example, as a fridge / freezer combination with a lower and an upper appliance door, each of which closes separate refrigerated spaces.

Aus der DE 10 2009 027 891 A1 ist ein zweitüriges Kältegerät bekannt, das zumindest zwei in der Gerätehochrichtung übereinander angeordnete Gerätetüren aufweist. Zudem ist an einer oberen Türabschlussleiste der unteren Gerätetür eine Bedienblende vorgesehen, die Bedien- und Anzeigeelemente trägt. Die obere Türabschlussleiste begrenzt einen mit Wärmeisolierschaum gefüllten Hohlraum der oberen Gerätetür nach oben. Bei geschlossenen Gerätetüren ist daher die Bedienblende der oberen Gerätetür von der unteren Gerätetür sichtgeschützt überdeckt. Somit sind bei geschlossenen Gerätetüren weder Informationen über Betriebsparameter einsehbar, noch ist eine Betätigung der Bedienelemente ermöglicht.From the DE 10 2009 027 891 A1 is a two-door refrigeration device is known, which has at least two in the device vertical direction superposed device doors. In addition, a control panel is provided on an upper door closure strip of the lower door, wearing the control and display elements. The upper door skirting limits a filled with thermal insulation foam cavity of the upper door to the top. When the appliance doors are closed, the control panel of the upper appliance door is therefore covered by the lower appliance door. Thus, with closed doors neither information about operating parameters can be viewed, nor is it possible to actuate the controls.

Aus der JP 2000 234849 A ist ein Kältegerät bekannt, wobei obere und untere Abschlussflächen einer oberen Tür jeweils mit einer oberen und einer unteren Kappe abgedeckt sind und ein LCD an der oberen Kappe angeordnet ist. JP 2000234849 A offenbart ein Kältegerät gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1. Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, ein Kältegerät bereitzustellen, bei dem eine ergonomisch günstige sowie komfortable Bedienung des Kältegerätes ermöglicht ist.From the JP 2000 234849 A a refrigerator is known, wherein upper and lower end surfaces of an upper door are each covered with an upper and a lower cap and an LCD is disposed on the upper cap. JP 2000234849 A discloses a refrigerator according to the preamble of claim 1. The object of the invention is to provide a refrigerator, in which an ergonomically favorable and comfortable operation of the refrigerator is possible.

Die Aufgabe ist durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruches 1 gelöst. Bevorzugte Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen offenbart.The object is solved by the features of claim 1. Preferred embodiments of the invention are disclosed in the subclaims.

Das erfindungsgemäße Kältegerät weist zumindest zwei in der Gerätehochrichtung übereinander angeordnete Gerätetüren auf, mit denen jeweils Kühlräume des Kältegerätes verschließbar sind. Um eine übersichtliche Bedienung des Kältegerätes zu erreichen, sind die Bedien- und Anzeigeelemente nicht in der oberen Türabschlussleiste der unteren Gerätetür angeordnet, sondern vielmehr am oberen Ende der unteren Gerätetür, und zwar an der Gerätefrontseite der unteren Gerätetür. Erfindungsgemäß ist daher sowohl die Anzeige als auch die Bedienung unmittelbar an der Gerätefront ermöglicht, und zwar auch bei geschlossenen Gerätetüren. Auf diese Weise ist eine besonders bequeme sowie ergonomische Bedienung des Kältegerätes von oben in optimaler Höhe gewährleistet.The refrigeration device according to the invention has at least two device doors arranged one above the other in the device vertical direction, with which cooling chambers of the refrigeration device can each be closed. In order to achieve a clear operation of the refrigeration device, the operating and display elements are not in the upper door closure strip the lower door, but rather at the upper end of the lower door, on the front of the device lower door. According to the invention, therefore, both the display and the operation directly on the front of the device allows, even with closed doors. In this way, a particularly convenient and ergonomic operation of the refrigerator is ensured from above at the optimum height.

Erfindungsgemäß sind die Bedien- und Anzeigeelemente in einer gemeinsamen Bedienblende bzw. Bedienleiste zusammengefasst. Die Bedienblende kann zusammen mit einer Türaußenwand die Gerätefront der unteren Gerätetür bilden. Zudem kann die Bedienblende mit nur geringer Bauhöhe ausgeführt sein und sich in etwa leistenförmig horizontal in der Geräteseitenrichtung erstrecken.According to the operating and display elements are combined in a common control panel or control bar. The control panel, together with a door outer wall, can form the front panel of the lower unit door. In addition, the control panel can be designed with only a small height and extend approximately strip-shaped horizontally in the device side direction.

Die zwei in der Hochrichtung übereinander angeordneten Gerätetüren sind über einen Trennspalt voneinander beabstandet. Der Trennspalt gewährleistet, dass sich die Bewegungsbahnen der seitlich angelenkten Gerätetüren nicht überschneiden. Jede der Gerätetüren kann jeweils einen separaten Kühlraum verschließen.The two stacked in the vertical direction device doors are spaced apart by a separating gap. The separating gap ensures that the paths of movement of the laterally hinged doors do not overlap. Each of the appliance doors can each close a separate refrigerator compartment.

Die untere Gerätetür kann in an sich bekannter Weise eine randseitig umlaufende Türschmalseite aufweisen, die in der Bautiefenrichtung jeweils an Randkanten in die, den Kühlraum begrenzende Türinnenseite sowie in die Gerätefront übergeht. Erfindungsgemäß schließt die untere Gerätetür an ihrem oberen Ende mit einer oberen, horizontalen Türschmalseite ab, an der eine obere Türabschlussleiste vorgesehen ist. Diese begrenzt zusammen mit einer unteren Türabschlussleiste einen mit Wärmeisolierschaum gefüllten Hohlraum der unteren Gerätetür.The lower door can in a conventional manner have a peripheral edge of the door narrow side, which merges in the Bautiefenrichtung each edge edges in the, the refrigerator compartment defining door inner side and in the front of the device. According to the invention, the lower door closes at its upper end with an upper, horizontal door narrow side, on which an upper door closure strip is provided. This limits together with a lower door closure strip filled with heat insulating foam cavity of the lower door.

Die Gerätetür eines Kältegerätes kann typischerweise als ein Hohlkörper realisiert sein, der mit einem Wärmeisolierschaum gefüllt ist. Der Hohlkörper kann aus einer zum Beispiel aus Edelstahlblech gebildeten frontseitigen Türaußenwand sowie einer Türinnenwand aufgebaut sein, die beispielsweise eine tiefgezogene Kunststoffplatine ist. Dazwischen ist der mit Wärmeisolierschaum gefüllte Hohlraum begrenzt. Die Türaußenwand kann in der Geräteseitenrichtung abgewinkelte Profilleisten aufweisen, die mit der Türinnenwand schaumdicht verbunden sind. Der mit Wärmeisolierschaum gefüllte Hohlraum der Gerätetür ist zudem an der unteren und an der oberen Türkante mit einer unteren und einer oberen Türabschlussleiste begrenzt.The appliance door of a refrigeration appliance can typically be realized as a hollow body which is filled with a heat insulating foam. The hollow body may be constructed of a front door outer wall formed, for example, from stainless steel sheet and a door inner wall, which is for example a deep-drawn plastic circuit board. In between, the space filled with Wärmeisolierschaum cavity is limited. The door outer wall may have in the device side direction angled profile strips which are foam-tight connected to the door inner wall. The stuffed with thermal insulating foam The cavity of the appliance door is also limited at the lower and at the upper door edge with a lower and an upper door closure strip.

In einer Ausführungsvariante kann die Bedienblende materialeinheitlich und einstückig unmittelbar in der oberen Türabschlußleiste der unteren Gerätetür integriert sein. Fertigungstechnisch bevorzugt ist es jedoch, wenn die Bedienblende und die Türabschlussleiste voneinander separate Bauteile sind. Bevorzugt kann die Bedienblende ein Bestandteil eines Steuerelektronik-Gehäuses sein. Das Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse kann an der äußeren Seite der Türabschlussleiste lösbar montiert sein. Auf diese Weise kann in einem ersten Herstellungsschritt der Gerätetür-Hohlraum mit Hilfe der Türabschlussleisten, jedoch noch ohne Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse, zunächst schaumdicht geschlossen werden. Anschließend kann in einem Aufschäumvorgang der Hohlraum mit Wärmeisolierschaum gefüllt werden. Erst in einem weiteren Herstellungsschritt kann dann das Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse an der Türabschlussleiste der bereits fertiggestellten Gerätetür montiert werden.In one embodiment variant, the control panel can be integrated in the same material and in one piece directly in the upper door closure strip of the lower appliance door. In terms of manufacturing technology, however, it is preferred if the control panel and the door closure strip are separate from one another. Preferably, the control panel may be part of a control electronics housing. The control electronics housing may be detachably mounted on the outer side of the door closure strip. In this way, in a first manufacturing step, the appliance door cavity with the aid of the door closure strips, but still without control electronics housing, initially closed foam tight. Subsequently, in a foaming process, the cavity can be filled with heat insulating foam. Only in a further manufacturing step, the control electronics housing can then be mounted on the door closure strip of the already completed appliance door.

Die obere Türabschlussleiste der unteren Gerätetür weist eine nach oben freigelegte Sichtfläche auf, in der eine davon zurückgesetzte Montagevertiefung vorgesehen ist. In der Montagevertiefung ist das Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse eingesetzt. Bevorzugt kann die obere Türabschlussleiste im Querschnitt in etwa stufenförmig ausgeführt sein, und zwar mit einer in der Bautiefenrichtung nach vorne offenen Montagevertiefung. Die Montagevertiefung ist durch einen Montageboden sowie durch Seitenwände definiert, die an einer Übergangskante in die nach oben freigelegte Sichtfläche der Türabschlussleiste übergehen können.The upper door seal strip of the lower door has an upwardly exposed visible surface, in which a recessed mounting recess is provided. In the mounting recess the control electronics housing is used. Preferably, the upper door closing strip in cross section may be designed in approximately step-shaped, with a mounting recess which is open in the direction of the depth direction towards the front. The mounting recess is defined by a mounting floor and by side walls, which can pass at a transitional edge in the exposed top of the door seal strip.

Das Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse kann dabei konturangepasst in die Montagevertiefung eingesetzt werden. Das heißt, dass die Bauhöhe sowie Bautiefe der Montagevertiefung der Gehäuse-Bauhöhe sowie der Gehäuse-Bautiefe entspricht. In diesem Fall kann die Gehäuse-Oberseite im Wesentlichen flächenbündig in die oben erwähnte Sichtfläche der Türabschlussleiste übergehen. Entsprechend kann die Gehäuse-Frontwand im Wesentlichen flächenbündig in die Gerätefront übergehen. Die Gehäuse-Deckwand sowie die Gehäuse-Frontwand sind dabei durch die, im Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse gebildeten Randkante voneinander örtlich getrennt. Die Bedienblende ist hierbei alleine an der Gehäuse-Frontwand vorgesehen.The control electronics housing can be used contour-adapted in the mounting recess. This means that the height and depth of the mounting recess corresponds to the housing height and the housing depth. In this case, the housing top can be substantially flush with the above-mentioned visible surface of the door closure strip. Accordingly, the housing front wall can go substantially flush in the front of the device. The housing top wall and the housing front wall are separated from each other by the edge formed in the control electronics housing from each other. The control panel is provided here alone on the housing front wall.

Das Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse kann über seitliche Versatzmaße von den seitlichen, oberen Gerätetür-Ecken der unteren Gerätetür beabstandet sein, an denen die Türschmalseiten zusammenlaufen. Im Hinblick auf einen Türanschlagwechsel ist es von Vorteil, wenn das Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse mit Bezug auf eine vertikale Geräte-Mittelachse symmetrisch angeordnet ist. Das heißt, dass bevorzugt auch die beiden Versatzmaße identisch sein können. In der Geräteseitenrichtung seitlich außerhalb des Steuerelektronik-Gehäuses kann die vordere obere Randkante der unteren Gerätetür unmittelbar durch die obere Türabschlußleiste gebildet sein. Demgegenüber kann die Randkante im mittleren Bereich nicht mehr durch die obere Türabschlußleiste, sondern durch das Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse selbst gebildet sein.The control electronics housing can be spaced by lateral offset dimensions of the side, upper door door corners of the lower door, where the door narrow sides converge. With regard to a door stop change, it is advantageous if the control electronics housing is arranged symmetrically with respect to a vertical device center axis. This means that preferably also the two offset dimensions can be identical. In the device side direction laterally outside of the control electronics housing, the front upper peripheral edge of the lower door can be formed directly by the upper door closing strip. In contrast, the peripheral edge in the central region can no longer be formed by the upper door closure strip, but by the control electronics housing itself.

Das Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse kann über beliebige Formschluss- und/oder Kraftschlussverbindungen insbesondere lösbar an der Türabschlussleiste montiert werden. Beispielhaft können an den Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse Schraub- oder Rastelemente vorgesehen sein, die mit korrespondierenden Gegenkonturen in der Türabschlussleiste in Schraub- oder Rastverbindung bringbar sind.The control electronics housing can be mounted in particular detachably on the door closing strip via any interlocking and / or frictional connection. By way of example may be provided on the control electronics housing screw or locking elements, which can be brought with corresponding mating contours in the door closure strip in screw or snap-in connection.

Die Erfindung und ihre vorteilhaften Aus- und Weiterbildungen sowie deren Vorteile werden nachfolgend anhand von Zeichnungen näher erläutert.The invention and its advantageous embodiments and further developments and advantages thereof are explained in more detail below with reference to drawings.

Each of the appliance doors 1, 3 is constructed as a hollow body whose cavity 9 (FIG. Fig. 2 ) is filled during a Schäumungsvorganges with a Wärmeisolierschaum, not shown. The cavity 9 will be according to the following FIGS. 2 to 4 delimited by a front panel forming the door outer wall 13 and a door inner wall 14. At the respective Tuerber- and -oberseiten the cavity 9 is closed foam-tight with each other by lower and upper door closing strips 17.

Wie aus der Fig. 1 weiter hervorgeht, ist an der Türoberseite der unteren Gerätetür 1 ein in der Geräteseitenrichtung x horizontal langgestrecktes Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse 15 vorgesehen. Das Gehäuse 15 ist mit in etwa gleich großen Versatzmaßen a, b von den seitlichen oberen Türecken 10 der unteren Gerätetür 1 beabstandet sowie symmetrisch zu einer vertikalen Mittelachse M der Gerätetür 1 angeordnet. Zudem ist das Gehäuse 15 in einer randseitig nach oben offenen Aussparung 20 (Fig. 3) der z. B. aus Edelstahlblech gefertigten Türfrontwand 13 eingefasst. In dem Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse 15 sind für die Bedienung des Kältegerätes strichpunktiert dargestellte Elektronik-Bauteile 12 sowie jeweils Bedien- und Anzeigeelemente 16, 18 vorgesehen. Das Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse 15 ist gerätefrontseitig mit einer Gehäuse-Frontwand freigelegt, die eine benutzerseitige Bedienblende 37 oder Bedienleiste bildet, in der sowohl Anzeigeelemente 18, etwa Siebensegment-Anzeigen oder andere optische Anzeigen, als auch Bedienelemente 16 zusammengefasst sind. Die schmale Bedienleiste erstreckt sich horizontal in der Geräteseitenrichtung x am oberen Rand der unteren Gerätetür 1.Like from the Fig. 1 is further apparent, a horizontally elongated in the device side direction x control electronics housing 15 is provided on the door top of the lower door 1. The housing 15 is spaced from the lateral upper corner doors 10 of the lower door 1 with approximately equally large offset dimensions a, b and arranged symmetrically to a vertical center axis M of the door 1. In addition, the housing 15 in an edge-upwardly open recess 20 (FIG. Fig. 3 ) of z. B. made of stainless steel sheet door front wall 13 edged. In the control electronics housing 15 dash-dotted line electronics components 12 and each control and display elements 16, 18 are provided for the operation of the refrigerator. The control electronics housing 15 is exposed device front side with a housing front wall, which forms a user-side control panel 37 or control bar, in which both display elements 18, about seven-segment displays or other visual displays, as well as controls 16 are summarized. The narrow control strip extends horizontally in the device side direction x at the upper edge of the lower door 1.

Gemäß der Fig. 2 sind an den einander zugewandten horizontalen Türschmalseiten 19 der Gerätetüren 1, 3 jeweils untere und obere Türabschlussleisten 17 vorgesehen. Die einander zugewandten Türschmalseiten 19 gehen gemäß der Fig. 2 an Randkanten 21 jeweils in die Türinnenwand 14 und in die Türaußenwand 13 über. In der Geräteseitenrichtung x seitlich außerhalb des Steuerelektronik-Gehäuses 15 sind diese Randkanten 21 unmittelbar durch die Türabschlußleisten 17 gebildet (Fig. 2). Demgegenüber ist in der unteren Gerätetür 1 die in der Bautiefenrichtung y vordere Randkante 21 im mittleren Bereich nicht mehr durch die obere Türabschlußleiste 17, sondern durch das Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse 15 selbst gebildet (Fig. 3). Das Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse 15 ist in den Figuren als ein rechteckförmiges geschlossenes Hohlprofil ausgeführt, das den Bauraum für die elektronischen Bauteile 12 umschließt. Alternativ kann das Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse 15 auch als ein offenes Winkelprofil oder als Flachprofil ausgeführt sein, das zusammen mit der Türabschlußleiste 17 den Bauraum für die elektronischen Bauteile 12 umschließt.According to the Fig. 2 are each provided at the facing horizontal door narrow sides 19 of the device doors 1, 3 lower and upper door seal strips 17. The mutually facing door narrow sides 19 go according to the Fig. 2 at marginal edges 21 each in the door inner wall 14 and in the door outer wall 13 via. In the device side direction x laterally outside the control electronics housing 15, these marginal edges 21 are formed directly by the door closure strips 17 ( Fig. 2 ). In contrast, in the lower door 1 in the depth direction y front edge 21 in the middle region is no longer formed by the upper door closure strip 17, but by the control electronics housing 15 itself ( Fig. 3 ). The control electronics housing 15 is designed in the figures as a rectangular closed hollow profile, which encloses the space for the electronic components 12. Alternatively, the control electronics housing 15 can also be designed as an open angle profile or as a flat profile, which encloses the installation space for the electronic components 12 together with the door closure strip 17.

Die obere Türschmalseite 19 der unteren Gerätetür 1 soll im Folgenden näher beschrieben werden: So ist die obere Türschmalseite 19 mittels der oberen Türabschlußleiste 17 und dem Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse 15 gebildet, die eine voneinander lösbare zweiteilige Baueinheit bilden. Wie aus der Fig. 3 hervorgeht, ist die obere Türabschlußleiste 17 der unteren Gerätetür 1 nach vorne stufenartig unter Bildung einer Montagevertiefung 23 abgewinkelt. In der Montagevertiefung 23 der oberen Türabschlussleiste 17 der unteren Gerätetür 1 ist das Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse 15 eingesetzt. Die Montagevertiefung 23 ist durch eine vertikale Seitenwand 25 sowie durch einen horizontalen Montageboden 27 begrenzt. Die Seitenwand 25 geht gemäß der Fig. 3 an einer Übergangskante 29 in eine nach oben freigelegte Sichtfläche 31 der oberen Türabschlussleiste 17 der unteren Gerätetür 1 über. Demgegenüber ist der Montageboden 27 in der Bautiefenrichtung y nach vorne in fester Verbindung mit einem abgewinkelten Randsteg 33 der beispielsweise aus Edelstahlblech gebildeten Türaußenwand 13 der unteren Gerätetür 1. Die in der Fig. 3 gezeigte Bautiefe t des Montagebodens 27 sowie die Bauhöhe h der Seitenwand 25 sind derart bemessen, dass die Deckwand 35 sowie die Frontseite des Steuerelektronik-Gehäuses 15 in etwa flächenbündig, d.h. stufenlos, unter Bildung von Übergangsfugen mit der Sichtfläche 31 der Türabschlussleiste 17 sowie mit der Türaußenwand 13 der unteren Gerätetür 1 ausgerichtet sind.The upper door narrow side 19 of the lower door 1 is to be described in more detail below: Thus, the upper door narrow side 19 is formed by means of the upper door closure strip 17 and the control electronics housing 15, which form a two-piece unit detachable from each other. Like from the Fig. 3 shows, the upper door closure strip 17 of the lower door 1 is angled forward stepwise to form a mounting recess 23. In the mounting recess 23 of the upper door trim strip 17 of the lower door 1, the control electronics housing 15 is inserted. The mounting recess 23 is bounded by a vertical side wall 25 and by a horizontal mounting base 27. The side wall 25 goes according to the Fig. 3 on a transitional edge 29 in an exposed upwardly visible face 31 of the upper door trim strip 17 of the lower door 1 via. In contrast, the mounting base 27 in the Bautiefenrichtung y forward in a fixed connection with an angled edge web 33 of the example formed of stainless steel sheet door outer wall 13 of the lower door 1. The in the Fig. 3 shown depth of the mounting base 27 and the height h of the side wall 25 are dimensioned such that the top wall 35 and the front of the control electronics housing 15 approximately flush, ie continuously, to form transition joints with the visible surface 31 of the door seal strip 17 and with Door outer wall 13 of the lower door 1 are aligned.

Wie bereits erwähnt, sind die Bedienelemente 16 und die Anzeigeelemente 18 allesamt in der Gehäuse-Frontseite des Steuerelektronik-Gehäuses 15 angeordnet, die die benutzerseitige Bedienblende 37 des Kältegerätes bildet. Die Bedienblende 37 ist nach oben durch die Randkante 21 begrenzt, an der die Gerätefront 13 in die obere Türschmalseite 19 übergeht. Selbst bei geschlossenen Gerätetüren 1, 3 ist daher die Bedienblende ohne weiteres einsehbar sowie betätigbar.As already mentioned, the controls 16 and the display elements 18 are all arranged in the housing front side of the control electronics housing 15, which forms the user-side control panel 37 of the refrigerator. The control panel 37 is bounded above by the peripheral edge 21, at which the front panel 13 merges into the upper door narrow side 19. Even with closed doors 1, 3, therefore, the control panel is readily visible and operable.

Das in der Fig. 3 gezeigte Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse 15 ist über Rastelemente 39 an entsprechenden Gegenkonturen der Seitenwand 25 sowie des Montagebodens 27 der Montagevertiefung 23 lösbar gehaltert.That in the Fig. 3 shown control electronics housing 15 is releasably supported on locking elements 39 on corresponding mating contours of the side wall 25 and the mounting base 27 of the mounting recess 23.

Alternativ oder zusätzlich zu der in der Fig. 3 gezeigten Rastverbindung kann das Steuerelektronik-Gehäuse 15 auch über eine in der Fig. 4 angedeutete Schraubverbindung 41 montiert sein, bei der eine untere Gehäusewandung des Steuerelektronik-Gehäuses 15 über einen nicht dargestellten Schraubbolzen mit einem Schraubdom 43 der oberen Türabschlussleiste 17 der unteren Gerätetür 1, verschraubt ist. Hierzu ist der Schraubdom 43 im Montageboden 27 der Montagevertiefung 23 vorgesehen. Zusätzlich können in der Fig. 4 auch die in der Fig. 3 gezeigten Rastelemente 39 des Steuerelektronik-Gehäuses 15 mit korrespondierenden Gegenkonturen an der vertikalen Seitenwand 25 bzw. am Montageboden 27 der Montagevertiefung 23 in Rasteingriff sein.Alternatively or in addition to that in the Fig. 3 shown locking connection, the control electronics housing 15 also has a in the Fig. 4 indicated screw 41 may be mounted in which a lower housing wall of the control electronics housing 15 via a screw, not shown, with a Schraubdom 43 of the upper door trim strip 17 of the lower door 1, is screwed.
