Definitions

  • the invention relates to a two-door refrigeration appliance, in particular a household refrigerating appliance, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a two-door refrigeration device can be embodied, for example, as a fridge / freezer combination with an upper and a lower appliance door, each of which closes separate refrigerated spaces.
  • a generic two-door refrigeration device which has at least two in the device vertical direction superposed device doors.
  • a control panel is provided on an upper door closure strip of the lower door, wearing the control and display elements.
  • the upper door closure strip delimits a space filled with heat insulating foam cavity of the lower door to the top.
  • WO 2004/048865 A1 discloses a refrigerator according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a refrigeration device, in which an ergonomically favorable and comfortable operation of the refrigerator is possible.
  • the refrigeration device 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.
  • the control and display elements are no longer located in the upper door trim strip of the lower door, but rather at the lower end of the upper door, especially on the front of the device upper door.
  • both the display and the operation is immediate allows the front of the device, even with closed doors. In this way, a particularly convenient and ergonomic operation of the refrigerator is ensured from above at the optimum height.
  • control and display elements can be 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 upper appliance door.
  • the control panel can be designed with only a small height and extend approximately strip-shaped horizontally in the device side direction.
  • 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.
  • the upper appliance door may have a peripherally extending door narrow side in a conventional manner, which merges in the Bautiefencardi respectively at marginal edges in the, the refrigerator compartment defining door inner side and in the front of the device.
  • a lower door closure strip At the downwardly facing door narrow side of the upper door a lower door closure strip must be provided. This limits together with an upper door closure strip filled with heat insulating foam cavity of the upper door.
  • 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 planteisolierschaum 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 cavity of the appliance door filled with heat insulating foam is also delimited at the upper and at the lower edge of the door with an upper and a lower door closure strip.
  • control panel can be integrated in the same material and in one piece directly in the lower door trim strip of the upper door. In terms of manufacturing technology, however, it is preferred if the control panel and the door closure strip are separate from one another.
  • 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 the 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.
  • the lower door trim strip of the upper Schoätk has a downwardly exposed visible surface in which a recessed mounting recess is provided.
  • the control electronics housing is used in the mounting recess.
  • the lower door closure strip is designed in cross-section approximately in a step-shaped manner, with a mounting recess which is open towards the front in the depth direction.
  • the mounting recess may be defined by a mounting floor and by side walls, which merge at a transition edge in the downwardly exposed visible surface of the door closure strip.
  • the control electronics housing can be used contour-adapted in the mounting recess. This means that preferably the height and depth of the mounting recess of the housing height and the housing depth corresponds.
  • the housing top can be substantially flush with the above-mentioned visible surface of the door closure strip.
  • the housing front wall can go substantially flush in the front of the device.
  • the housing bottom 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.
  • the control electronics housing can be spaced by lateral offset dimensions of the side, lower door door corners of the upper door unit, where the Narrow sides of the door converge.
  • 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.
  • the front lower peripheral edge of the upper door can be formed directly by the lower door closure strip.
  • the marginal edge in the central region can no longer be formed by the lower door terminal strip, but by the control electronics housing itself.
  • the control electronics housing can be mounted in particular detachably on the door closing strip via any interlocking and / or frictional connection.
  • any interlocking and / or frictional connection 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.
  • control electronics housing cover the door closure strip substantially completely protected.
  • the door closure strip is provided without outwardly exposed, bottom-side visible surface.
  • the door closure strip has a mounting surface on its underside, the overall depth of which essentially corresponds to the overall depth of the door narrow side.
  • the depth of the control electronics housing can extend over the entire depth of the door narrow side. Overall, therefore, results in a door that is extended edge down with the control electronics housing.
  • FIG. 1 is shown as a refrigerator, a refrigerator / freezer combination, in which a top door 1 and a lower door 3 close each separate cooling chambers.
  • the two appliance doors 1, 3 are each hinged laterally about a vertical pivot axis 5 and spaced apart in the device vertical direction z via a slight separating gap 7.
  • Each of the appliance doors 1, 3 is constructed as a hollow body whose cavity 9 (FIG. Fig. 2 ) is filled during a Häumungsvorganges with a Winnipegisolierschaum, not shown.
  • the cavity 9 will be according to the following FIGS. 2 to 5 delimited by a front panel forming the door outer wall 13 and a door inner wall 14. At the respective Uberber- and undersides of the cavity 9 is closed foam-tight with each other by upper and lower door closure strips 17.
  • control electronics housing 15 is provided on the door underside of the upper door unit 1 in the device side direction x.
  • the housing 15 is spaced apart from the lateral bottom door corners 10 of the upper appliance door 1 with approximately equally large offset dimensions a, b and arranged symmetrically to a vertical center axis M of the appliance door 1.
  • the housing 15 in an edge-down recess 20 (FIG. Fig. 3 ) of z. B. made of stainless steel sheet door front wall 13 edged.
