Description

Kältegerät mit einer Verdunstungsschale  Refrigerating appliance with an evaporation tray
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Kältegerät. The present invention relates to a refrigeration device.
Bei Kältegeräten gelangt durch die gelegentlich geöffnete Kältegerätetür oder durch das Verdunsten von Feuchtigkeit aus dem Kühlgut Feuchtigkeit in die Lagerkammer zum Aufbewahren von Kühlgut. Das in der Luft gebundene Wasser fällt dann als Tauwasser an den kalten Lagerkammerwänden aus. Bei bekannten Kältegeräten, insbesondere Kühl- und Gefriergeräten, wird verbreitet das beim Betrieb anfallende Tauwasser über Leitungen oder Kanäle durch Fließen unter Gravitationseinwirkung nach außen in eine, unterhalb von Austrittsdurchführungen der Lagerkammer angebrachte, sogenannte Verdunstungsschale geleitet. Die Verdunstungsschale ist üblicherweise in einem Bereich des Maschinenraums, vorzugsweise oberhalb des Verdichters, angeordnet. Darin aufgefangenes Tauwasser verdunstet aufgrund der Erwärmung der Verdunstungsschale, insbesondere durch die Übertragung von Wärme vom Verdichter zum Auffangbehälter, und wird so an die Umgebungsluft abgegeben. Dadurch kann eine bestimmte Menge an Kondenswasser abgeführt werden, ohne dass die Verdunstungsschale geleert werden muss oder überläuft. Die Verdunstungsrate der Verdunstungsschale wird durch die Umgebungsbedingungen beeinflusst. Dies sind z.B. die Umgebungslufttemperatur, Luftströmungen und Temperaturen bzw. Wärmen in der Nähe oder im thermischen Kontakt mit der Verdunstungsschale befindlicher Komponenten. In refrigerators passes through the occasionally open refrigerator door or by the evaporation of moisture from the refrigerated goods moisture in the storage chamber for storing refrigerated goods. The bound in the air water then precipitates as condensation on the cold storage chamber walls. In known refrigeration appliances, in particular refrigerators and freezers, the accumulated during operation condensation water is routed via lines or channels by flowing under gravity outward into a, below exit openings of the storage chamber mounted, so-called evaporation tray. The evaporation tray is usually arranged in a region of the machine room, preferably above the compressor. Thawed condensed water evaporates due to the heating of the evaporation tray, in particular by the transfer of heat from the compressor to the collection container, and is thus released into the ambient air. This allows a certain amount of condensation to be dissipated, without the evaporation tray must be emptied or overflowed. The evaporation rate of the evaporation tray is influenced by the ambient conditions. These are e.g. the ambient air temperature, air currents and temperatures in the vicinity or in thermal contact with the evaporation tray befindlicher components.
Bei neuen Kältegeräten werden durch eine optimierte Isolation die Laufzeiten des Verdichters reduziert. Ferner stehen immer effizientere Verdichter mit geringeren Wärmeverlusten und dadurch einer geringeren Wärmeabgabe zur Verfügung. Zunehmend kommen daher leistungsschwächere Verdichter zum Einsatz, die die Verdunstungsschale geringer aufheizen. Ein erhöhtes Aufkommen von Kondenswasser tritt ferner in tropischen Gebieten auf Grund der hohen Luftfeuchtigkeit auf. With new refrigeration units, the run times of the compressor are reduced by optimized insulation. Furthermore, more and more efficient compressors with lower heat losses and thus a lower heat output are available. Increasingly, therefore, low-performance compressors are used, which heat up the evaporation tray less. An increased amount of condensation also occurs in tropical areas due to the high humidity.
Bei modernen Kältegeraten mit hochwertiger Isolation kann es daher geschehen, dass die Abwärme des Verdichters nicht mehr genügt, um das Tauwasser mit der Rate zu verdunsten, mit der es entsteht, so dass schließlich die Verdunstungsschale überläuft. Wenn das überlaufende Tauwasser an Spannung führende Bauelemente unterhalb des Auffangbehälters gelangt, können Schäden an der Elektrik des Kältegerätes die Folge sein. Aus dem Gerät austretendes Tauwasser ist insbesondere auch dann besonders unerwünscht wenn das Kältegerät zur Montage in Möbeln vorgesehen ist. In modern refrigerators with high-quality insulation, it may therefore happen that the waste heat of the compressor is no longer sufficient to evaporate the condensate at the rate at which it arises, so that eventually overflows the evaporation tray. If the overflowing condensation reaches voltage-carrying components below the collecting container, damage to the electrical system of the refrigerator can result be. From the device leaking condensation is particularly undesirable especially when the refrigerator is intended for installation in furniture.
Eine verbreitete Lösung die manchmal geringe Verdunstungsleistung zu kompensieren besteht darin, ein Rohr in der Verdunstungsschale anzuordnen. Dieses Rohr führt beispielsweise vom Verflüssiger erwärmtes Gas an die Verdunstungsschale. Durch die zusätzliche Erwärmung ergibt sich ein weiterer Verdunstungseffekt von Kondenswasser aus der Verdunstungsschale. A common solution to compensate for sometimes low evaporation performance is to place a pipe in the evaporation tray. This tube leads, for example, gas heated by the condenser to the evaporation tray. The additional heating results in a further evaporation effect of condensation from the evaporation tray.
Man versucht auch mit elektrischen Zusatzheizungen an der Verdunstungsschale eine erhöhte Verdunstungsleistung des Wassers in der Verdunstungsschale zu erreichen. Attempts have also been made with electric booster heaters on the evaporation tray to achieve increased evaporation capacity of the water in the evaporation tray.
Diese bekannten Ansätze haben den Nachteil, dass sie einen zusätzlichen technischen Aufwand bedingen oder einen zusätzlichen Energieverbrauch verursachen. Vor diesem Hintergrund ist es eine Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, ein verbessertes Kältegerät zu schaffen bei dem insbesondere das Überlaufen der Verdunstungsschale durch einen verbesserten Wärmeaustausch zwischen der Verdunstungsschale und dem Verdichter vermieden werden kann. Die Aufgabe wird durch ein Kältegerät mit den Merkmalen des unabhängigen Anspruchs gelöst. Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen angegeben. These known approaches have the disadvantage that they require additional technical effort or cause additional energy consumption. Against this background, it is an object of the present invention to provide an improved refrigeration device in which in particular the overflow of the evaporation tray can be avoided by an improved heat exchange between the evaporation tray and the compressor. The object is achieved by a refrigeration device with the features of the independent claim. Further advantageous embodiments are specified in the dependent claims.
Demgemäß weist ein erfindungsgemäßes Kältegerät einen Verdichter und eine Verdunstungsschale zum Aufnehmen von Kondenswasser auf. An, bzw. nahe dem Verdichter ist die Verdunstungsschale so angeordnet, dass sie den Verdichter wenigstens abschnittsweise einfasst. Hierzu kann die Verdunstungsschale eine zumindest abschnittsweise gekrümmte Oberfläche, bzw. eine Außenoberfläche oder Kontaktfläche, umfassen, welche auf einer zumindest teilweise gekrümmten Oberfläche des Verdichters flächig anlegbar ist bzw. flächig anliegt. Accordingly, a refrigeration device according to the invention has a compressor and an evaporation tray for receiving condensed water. At or near the compressor, the evaporation tray is arranged so that it encloses the compressor at least in sections. For this purpose, the evaporation tray can comprise an at least partially curved surface, or an outer surface or contact surface, which can be applied flat on an at least partially curved surface of the compressor or lies flat against it.
Dadurch kann der Wärmeübergang zwischen dem Verdichter und der Verdunstungsschale verbessert werden, was zu einer stärkeren Erwärmung des Kondenswassers in der Verdunstungsschale und damit zu einer verbesserten Verdunstungsleistung von Kondenswasser in der Verdunstungsschale führt. Es kann daher die Abwärme des Verdichters besser ausgenutzt werden. Auch bei einem sich weniger stark erwärmenden Verdichter kann damit eine ausreichende Verdunstungsleistung erzielt werden. Durch das Einfassen des Verdichters durch die Verdunstungsschalle kann die Verdunstungsschalle auch bei geringen Bauräumen angeordnet werden. Thereby, the heat transfer between the compressor and the evaporation tray can be improved, resulting in a greater heating of the condensate in the evaporation tray and thus to an improved Evaporation performance of condensation in the evaporation tray leads. It can therefore be better utilized the waste heat of the compressor. Even with a less warming compressor so that a sufficient evaporation performance can be achieved. By enclosing the compressor through the evaporation sound, the evaporation sound can be arranged even with small spaces.
Durch die gekrümmte Kontaktfläche der Verdunstungsschale kann zudem erreicht werden, dass die Verdunstungsschale in den beispielsweise oberhalb des Verdichters verfügbaren Bauraum hineingeschwenkt werden kann. Nach dem Hineinschwenken wir der Verdichter zumindest abschnittsweise durch die gekrümmte, flächige Kontaktfläche der Verdunstungsschale eingefasst. Due to the curved contact surface of the evaporation tray can also be achieved that the evaporation tray can be pivoted into the space available, for example, above the compressor space. After pivoting in, we compress the compressor at least in sections through the curved, flat contact surface of the evaporation tray.
Dadurch, dass die Kontaktfläche der Verdunstungsschale mit dem Verdichter vergrößert ist, wird die Wärmeübertragung vom Verdichter auf das Wasser in der Verdunstungsschale gesteigert. Das Wasser in der Verdunstungsschale erwärmt sich somit mehr als das Wasser in konventionellen Kältegeräten. Durch den verbesserten Kontakt zwischen der Verdunstungsschale und dem Verdichter kann die Verdunstungsleistung entsprechend gesteigert werden. Die Verdunstungsschale kann dadurch klein gestaltet werden, wodurch Platz gespart wird und die Verdunstungsschale im Gewicht reduziert werden kann. Ferner können die an manchen Kältegeräten vorgesehenen Kupferrohre, die der Steigerung der Verdunstungsleistung dienen, eingespart werden. The fact that the contact surface of the evaporation tray is increased with the compressor, the heat transfer from the compressor is increased to the water in the evaporation tray. The water in the evaporation tray thus heats up more than the water in conventional refrigerators. Due to the improved contact between the evaporation tray and the compressor, the evaporation performance can be increased accordingly. The evaporation tray can be made small, thereby saving space and the evaporation tray can be reduced in weight. Furthermore, the copper pipes provided on some refrigeration appliances, which serve to increase the evaporation capacity, can be saved.
Ein Kältemittelkreislauf des Kältegerätes umfasst beispielsweise den Verdichter zum Verdichten von Kältemitteldampf, einen dem Verdichter nachgeschalteten Verflüssiger zum Kondensieren des Kältemitteldampfes und einen dem Verflüssiger nachgeschalteten und dem Verdichter vorgeschalteten Verdampfer zum Verdampfen des verflüssigten Kältemittels. Verdichter und Verdampfer sind dann bevorzugt jeweils mit einem Wärmetauscher zur Wärmeübertragung zwischen zugeführter Luft und dem Fluid versehen. A refrigerant circuit of the refrigeration device comprises, for example, the compressor for compressing refrigerant vapor, a condenser downstream of the compressor for condensing the refrigerant vapor, and an evaporator downstream of the condenser and upstream of the compressor for vaporizing the liquefied refrigerant. Compressor and evaporator are then preferably each provided with a heat exchanger for heat transfer between the supplied air and the fluid.
Unter Kältegerät wird insbesondere ein Haushaltskältegerät verstanden, also ein Kältegerät, das zur Haushaltsführung in Haushalten oder im Gastronomiebereich eingesetzt wird, und insbesondere dazu dient, Lebensmittel und/oder Getränke bei bestimmten Temperaturen zu lagern, wie beispielsweise ein Kühlschrank, ein Gefrierschrank, eine Kühlgerätekombination, eine Gefriertruhe oder ein Weinkühlschrank. Under refrigeration device is in particular a household refrigeration appliance understood, ie a refrigerator, which is used for household management in households or in the catering sector, and in particular serves to food and / or drinks certain temperatures, such as a refrigerator, a freezer, a refrigerator combination, a freezer or a wine fridge.
Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist das Einfassen in der Weise realisiert, dass der Verdichter einen gewölbten konvexen Abschnitt aufweist, der innerhalb eines gewölbten konkaven Abschnitts der Verdunstungsschale verläuft. Durch diese gewölbten ineinander verlaufenden Abschnitte von Verdichter und Verdunstungsschale wird ein optimal geringer mittlerer Abstand von der Verdunstungsschale zum Verdichter erreicht. Da die Wärmeübertragung sich mit sinkendem mittlerem Abstand von Verdunstungsschale und Verdichter erhöht, wird damit der Wärmeübergang optimiert. Ferner vermeiden die gewölbten Abschnitte Kanten, die die Luftdurchströmung zwischen Verdichter und Verdunstungsschale beeinträchtigen können. Der konvexe Abschnitt und der konkave Abschnitt weisen beispielsweise wenigstens abschnittsweise einen gleichen Krümmungsradius auf. Damit können sie in unmittelbarer Nähe zueinander angeordnet werden. Der konvexe Abschnitt und der konkave Abschnitt können wenigstens bereichsweise sphärisch gestaltet sein. Die Verdunstungsschale sitzt dann haubenartig, insbesondere von oben, auf dem Verdichter auf. Dadurch wird eine optimale Nähe von Verdunstungsschale und Verdichter erzielt und der Wärmeübergang optimiert. Ferner wird die Verdunstungsschale dadurch am Verdichter zentriert und ein Abrutschen vom Verdichter verhindert. According to one embodiment, the binding is realized in such a way that the compressor has a curved convex portion, which extends within a curved concave portion of the evaporation shell. By means of these curved intersecting sections of compressor and evaporation tray, an optimally low average distance from the evaporation tray to the compressor is achieved. Since the heat transfer increases with decreasing mean distance between the evaporation tray and the compressor, the heat transfer is optimized. Furthermore, the curved portions avoid edges that can affect the air flow between the compressor and evaporation tray. The convex portion and the concave portion have, for example, at least in sections an equal radius of curvature. So they can be arranged in close proximity to each other. The convex portion and the concave portion may be at least partially spherical in shape. The evaporation tray then sits like a hood, especially from above, on the compressor. This ensures optimal proximity of the evaporation tray and compressor and optimizes heat transfer. Furthermore, the evaporation tray is thereby centered on the compressor and prevents it from slipping off the compressor.
Gemäß einer weiteren Ausführungsform ist die Verdunstungsschale an dem Verdichter verrastbar. Die Verdunstungsschale kann dann nach einem Entleeren wieder am Verdichter angeordnet und daran befestigt werden. Ferner wird ein Entnehmen der Verdunstungsschale für deren Reinigung erleichtert. Gleichzeitig bietet das lösbare Befestigen der Verdunstungsschale am Verdichter eine Sicherheit gegen ein Verkippen und Auslaufen der Verdunstungsschale verglichen mit einer einfach lose aufgesetzten Verdunstungsschale. According to a further embodiment, the evaporation tray can be latched to the compressor. The evaporation tray can then be placed back on the compressor after emptying and attached thereto. Furthermore, a removal of the evaporation tray is facilitated for their cleaning. At the same time, releasably securing the evaporation tray to the compressor provides security against tilting and leaking of the evaporation tray compared to a simply loosely mounted evaporation tray.
Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist die Verdunstungsschale an dem Verdichter durch schwenken um den Verdichter verrastbar. Dadurch ist es möglich, die Verdunstungsschale mit einer Krümmung entlang einer gekrümmten Oberfläche des Verdichters entlang zu führen. Dadurch kann eine Verrastung durch ein Bewegen der Verdunstungsschale relativ zu dem Verdichter auch bei gekrümmten zueinander gewandten Oberflächen von Verdichter und Verdunstungsschale erzielt werden. Zum Verrasten weist der Verdichter beispielsweise einen Steg auf, der beim Verrasten in eine Vertiefung in der Verdunstungsschale eintaucht. Der Steg kann wenigstens bereichsweise federelastisch ausgebildet sein, so dass er in die Vertiefung einfedern kann. Hierzu ist der Steg beispielsweise als Drahtbügel oder Omega-Bügel ausgeführt. Ferner kann an der Vertiefung ein federvorgespanntes Rastelement vorgesehen sein, dass mit dem Steg verrastet. Die Vertiefung läuft beispielsweise in eine Schräge aus, so dass der Steg einfacher in die Vertiefung eingleiten kann. Das Rastelement ist dabei im Wesentlichen als Widerhaken ausgebildet. Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist der Auffangbehälter wenigstens teilweise transparent ausgebildet. Der transparente Auffangbehälter ermöglicht eine einfache Ablesbarkeit des Flüssigkeitstandes im Auffangbehälter durch den Benutzer. Der Auffangbehälter kann beispielsweise kostengünstig aus Kunststoff als Spritzgussteil hergestellt werden. Gemäß einer Ausführungsform umfasst die Verdunstungsschale eine asymmetrische Kontaktfläche zum Verdichter. Die Kontaktfläche kann beispielsweise durch eine zumindest teilweise gekrümmte Oberfläche, insbesondere Außenoberfläche, gebildet sein. Die asymmetrische Kontaktfläche kann beispielsweise unterschiedlich gekrümmte Kontaktabschnitte mit unterschiedlichen Krümmungsradien aufweisen. Beispielsweise kann die asymmetrische Kontaktfläche einen vorderen gekrümmten Kontaktabschnitt und einen hinteren gekrümmten Kontaktabschnitt aufweisen. Der vordere gekrümmte According to one embodiment, the evaporation tray can be latched to the compressor by pivoting about the compressor. This makes it possible to guide the evaporation tray along a curvature along a curved surface of the compressor. As a result, latching can be achieved by moving the evaporation tray relative to the compressor even with curved mutually facing surfaces of the compressor and evaporation tray. For latching, the compressor, for example, a web, which dips when locking in a depression in the evaporation tray. The web can be at least partially resilient, so that it can spring into the depression. For this purpose, the bridge is designed for example as a wire bow or omega strap. Further, a spring-biased locking element may be provided on the recess that locks with the web. The depression runs, for example, in a slope, so that the bridge can easily initiate into the depression. The locking element is formed substantially as a barb. According to one embodiment, the collecting container is at least partially transparent. The transparent collecting container allows easy readability of the liquid level in the collecting container by the user. The collecting container can be produced, for example, inexpensively from plastic as an injection molded part. According to one embodiment, the evaporation tray comprises an asymmetrical contact surface to the compressor. The contact surface can be formed for example by an at least partially curved surface, in particular outer surface. The asymmetrical contact surface may, for example, have differently curved contact sections with different radii of curvature. For example, the asymmetric contact surface may have a front curved contact portion and a rear curved contact portion. The front curved
Kontaktabschnitt kann flacher gekrümmt sein als der hintere gekrümmte Kontaktabschnitt, also einen geringeren Krümmungsradius aufweisen. Der hintere gekrümmte Contact portion may be shallower curved than the rear curved contact portion, so have a smaller radius of curvature. The back curved
Kontaktabschnitt kann beispielsweise tiefergezogen sein als der vordere gekrümmte Kontaktabschnitt. Dadurch kann die Verdunstungsschale zuerst mit dem vorderen gekrümmten Kontaktabschnitt auf den Verdichter aufgesetzt und entlang der Krümmung geschwenkt werden, bis der hintere gekrümmte Kontaktabschnitt zumindest teilweise flächig an dem Verdichter anliegt. Auf diese Weise kann die Verdunstungsschale auch bei einem geringen Freiraum auf dem Verdichter angeordnet werden und diesen zumindest teilweise, insbesondere über den tiefgezogenen hinteren gekrümmten Kontaktabschnitt, einfassen. Gemäß einer Ausführungsform umfasst die Verdunstungsschale eine gekrümmte, insbesondere konkave, Kontaktfläche umfasst, welche einen gekrümmten, insbesondere konvexen, Abschnitt des Verdichters zumindest teilweise einfasst. For example, the contact portion may be deeper than the front curved contact portion. As a result, the evaporation tray can first be placed on the compressor with the front curved contact section and swiveled along the curve until the rear curved contact section rests at least partially flat against the compressor. In this way, the evaporation tray can be arranged even with a small clearance on the compressor and this at least partially, in particular on the deep-drawn rear curved contact portion, border. According to one embodiment, the evaporation tray comprises a curved, in particular concave, contact surface, which at least partially encloses a curved, in particular convex, section of the compressor.

Furthermore, the invention will be explained in more detail with reference to a preferred embodiment with reference to the accompanying figures. It shows:
Figur 1 : eine schematische Darstellung eines Ausschnitts eines Kältegerätes mit Figure 1: a schematic representation of a section of a refrigerator with
Fokus auf einem Verdichter und einer teilweise auf den Verdichter aufgeschobenen Verdunstungsschale gemäß einem Ausführungsbeispiel; und  Focus on a compressor and a partially pushed onto the compressor evaporation tray according to an embodiment; and
Figur 2: eine schematische Darstellung des Ausschnitts des Kältegerätes gemäß dem Ausführungsbeispiel von Figur 1 mit einer vollständig auf den Verdichter aufgeschobenen Verdunstungsschale. Figure 2 is a schematic representation of the detail of the refrigerator according to the embodiment of Figure 1 with a completely pushed onto the compressor evaporation tray.
Figur 1 zeigt eine schematische Darstellung eines Ausschnitts eines Kältegerätes 1 mit Fokus auf einen Verdichter 3 und eine teilweise auf den Verdichter 3 aufgeschobenen Verdunstungsschale 5 gemäß einem Ausführungsbeispiel. Der Verdunstungsschale 5 zum Aufnehmen von Kondenswasser ist hier schräg rechts oberhalb des Verdichters 3 angeordnet in einer Montagestellung dargestellt. Die Verdunstungsschale 5 umschließt den Verdichter 3 abschnittsweise. Dies ist hier realisiert, indem der Verdichter 3 einen gewölbten konvexen Abschnitt 7 aufweist, der innerhalb eines gewölbten konkaven Abschnitts 9 der Verdunstungsschale 5 verläuft. Der konvexe Abschnitt 7 und der konkave Abschnitt 9 weisen dabei abschnittsweise einen gleichen Krümmungsradius auf. Der konvexe Abschnitt 7 und der konkave Abschnitt 9 sind ferner sphärisch gestaltet. Dadurch kommen sie flächig aneinander zum Anliegen, wenn sie abstandslos aneinander gefügt werden. Hierdurch kann ein besonders guter Wärmeübergang zwischen der Verdunstungsschale 5 und dem Verdichter 3 realisiert werden. Im Bild ist ferner ein Steg 1 1 am Verdichter 3 zu erkennen, der bei der an den Verdichter gefügten Verdunstungsschale 5 in eine entsprechende Vertiefung 13 in der Verdunstungsschale 5 eingreift. Um die Verdunstungsschale 5 von der in Figur 1 dargestellten Montagestellung in die in Figur 2 dargestellte Betriebsstellung zu bewegen, wird die Verdunstungsschale 5 entsprechend der Pfeilrichtung R entlang dem Verdichter 3 geschwenkt. Figur 2 zeigt eine schematische Darstellung des Ausschnitts des Kältegerätes 1 gemäß dem Ausführungsbeispiel von Figur 1 mit einer vollständig auf den Verdichter 3 aufgeschobenen Verdunstungsschale 5. In dieser Betriebsstellung verläuft nun der Steg 1 1 in der Vertiefung 13 und unterstützt eine Festlegung der Verdunstungsschale 5 am Verdichter 3. An der Verdunstungsschale 5 ist bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel ferner ein Rastelement 15 vorgesehen, das am Steg 1 1 verrastet und ein Verrutschen der Verdunstungsschale 5 verhindert. Durch einen Doppelpfeil S ist der zusätzliche Kontaktbereich symbolisiert, an dem die Verdunstungsschale 5 durch ihre gekrümmte Kontur an dem ebenfalls gekrümmten Verdichter 3 zum Anliegen kommt. Im zusätzlichen Kontaktbereich S kommt die Verdunstungsschale 5 am Verdichter 3 zum Anliegen, weil sie nicht einfach von der rechten Bildseite geradlinig über den Verdichter 3 geschoben wird, sondern auf den Verdichter 3 zum Anliegen geschwenkt wird. Der zusätzliche Kontaktbereich S mit seiner besonders nahen Anordnung von der Verdunstungsschale 5 am Verdichter 3 bietet einen zusätzlichen Wärmeübergang vom Verdichter 3 zur Verdunstungsschale 5. Der summarische Wärmeübergang zwischen beiden wird dadurch erhöht und die Verdunstungsleistung von Kondenswasser aus der Verdunstungsschale 5 erhöht. 1 shows a schematic representation of a section of a refrigeration device 1 with focus on a compressor 3 and a partially pushed onto the compressor 3 evaporation tray 5 according to an embodiment. The evaporation tray 5 for receiving condensed water is arranged here obliquely to the right above the compressor 3 in an assembly position. The evaporation tray 5 encloses the compressor 3 in sections. This is realized here by the compressor 3 has a curved convex portion 7 which extends within a curved concave portion 9 of the evaporation tray 5. The convex portion 7 and the concave portion 9 in this case have a same radius of curvature in sections. The convex portion 7 and the concave portion 9 are also spherically shaped. As a result, they come together flat to each other when they are joined together without spacing. In this way, a particularly good heat transfer between the evaporation tray 5 and the compressor 3 can be realized. The image also shows a web 1 1 on the compressor 3, which engages in the joined to the compressor evaporation tray 5 in a corresponding recess 13 in the evaporation tray 5. In order to move the evaporation tray 5 from the assembly position shown in FIG. 1 into the operating position shown in FIG. 2, the evaporation tray 5 is pivoted along the compressor 3 in the direction of the arrow R. Figure 2 shows a schematic representation of the detail of the refrigeration device 1 according to the embodiment of Figure 1 with a completely pushed onto the compressor 3 evaporation tray 5. In this operating position now runs the web 1 1 in the recess 13 and supports a determination of the evaporation tray 5 on the compressor 3. At the evaporation tray 5, a latching element 15 is further provided in this embodiment, the latched on the web 1 1 and prevents slipping of the evaporation tray 5. By a double arrow S, the additional contact area is symbolized, on which the evaporation tray 5 comes by its curved contour on the also curved compressor 3 for concern. In the additional contact area S, the evaporation tray 5 comes to rest on the compressor 3, because it is not simply pushed from the right side of the image over the compressor 3, but is pivoted to the compressor 3 to concern. The additional contact area S with its particularly close arrangement of the evaporation tray 5 on the compressor 3 provides additional heat transfer from the compressor 3 to the evaporation tray 5. The total heat transfer between the two is thereby increased and the evaporation rate of condensed water from the evaporation tray 5 is increased.
Wie in den Figuren 1 und 2 dargestellt umfasst die Verdunstungsschale 5 eine asymmetrische Kontaktfläche zum Verdichter. Die Kontaktfläche kann beispielsweise durch eine zumindest teilweise gekrümmte Oberfläche, insbesondere Außenoberfläche, gebildet sein, welche den konkaven Abschnitt 9 formt. As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the evaporation tray 5 comprises an asymmetric contact surface to the compressor. The contact surface can be formed for example by an at least partially curved surface, in particular outer surface, which forms the concave portion 9.
Die asymmetrische Kontaktfläche kann beispielsweise unterschiedlich gekrümmte, insbesondere konkave, Kontaktabschnitte aufweisen. Beispielsweise kann die asymmetrische Kontaktfläche einen vorderen gekrümmten, insbesondere konkaven, Kontaktabschnitt und einen hinteren gekrümmten, insbesondere konkaven, Kontaktabschnitt aufweisen. Der vordere gekrümmte Kontaktabschnitt kann flacher gekrümmt sein als der hintere gekrümmte Kontaktabschnitt, also einen geringeren Krümmungsradius aufweisen. Der hintere gekrümmte Kontaktabschnitt kann ferner tiefergezogen sein als der vordere gekrümmte Kontaktabschnitt. Dadurch kann die Verdunstungsschale 5 zuerst mit dem vorderen gekrümmten Kontaktabschnitt auf den Verdichter 3 aufgesetzt und dann entlang der Krümmung in einen Bauraum beispielsweise oberhalb des Verdichters hineingeschwenkt werden, bis der hintere gekrümmte Kontaktabschnitt zumindest teilweise flächig an dem Verdichter anliegt. Auf diese Weise kann die Verdunstungsschale auch bei einem geringen Freiraum auf dem Verdichter 3 angeordnet werden und diesen zumindest teilweise, insbesondere über den tiefgezogenen hinteren gekrümmten Kontaktabschnitt, einfassen. The asymmetrical contact surface may, for example, have differently curved, in particular concave, contact sections. For example, the asymmetric contact surface having a front curved, in particular concave, contact portion and a rear curved, in particular concave, contact portion. The front curved contact portion may be shallower curved than the rear curved contact portion, so have a smaller radius of curvature. The rear curved contact portion may be further lowered than the front curved contact portion. As a result, the evaporation tray 5 can first be placed on the compressor 3 with the front curved contact section and then swiveled into a construction space, for example above the compressor, along the curve until the rear curved contact section abuts the compressor at least partially. In this way, the evaporation tray can be arranged even with a small clearance on the compressor 3 and this at least partially, in particular on the deep-drawn rear curved contact portion, border.
