Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a movable compartment and movable compartment engagement system for household appliance, said system being designed, more specifically, for making the engagement of sliding drawers safer and versatile in household refrigerators, besides of allowing the variation of the amount and configuration of compartments of a certain storage space in a completely new fashion when compared with the current state of the art.
  • drawers are removable and sliding, constructed in order to cooperate with tracks existing on the walls of the cooled compartment, wherein, in general, said tracks comprise cavities on which the drawers edge structures are simply supported or alternatively casters are attached thereto to facilitate the sliding of the drawers when closing or opening.
  • drawers jamming often occurs during closing or opening, since if it is improperly handled - by only one of the user's hands or pushed / pulled by near regions of its sides - there is a horizontal displacement diagonally thereof, resulting in inconvenience that compromise their proper handling.
  • FIG. 1 schematically illustrates how the misalignment of the refrigerator drawers occurs during the sliding.
  • This Figure illustrates, in schematic cross-sectional view, a refrigerator cabinet 10 with an inner compartment 11 comprising side tracks 12 cooperating with its side walls 13, wherein the side tracks 12 slide on the side edges 21 of a movable compartment or drawer 20.
  • the horizontal misalignment of the drawer occurs generally due to the clearance afforded by the width "d" of the tracks 12 - which exists to enable the engagement and the movement of the drawer 20 - associated with large longitudinal dimension "D" of the drawer which, as it is inserted into the inner compartment 11, creates an imaginary diagonal displacement trend line that makes up the front surface projection of the cabinet 10 at an angle "a” that increases as the drawer 20 is inserted into the inner compartment 11 and because of this, will increase the possibility of displacing and jamming.
  • Document US6945617 describes a track for sliding drawers whose construction results in a horizontal thin span for the passage of the support edge thereof, and although this will be able to reduce the undue horizontal and vertical movement of the drawer, during its opening or closing, it can hinder the sliding thereof, besides requiring the use of metal screws for fixing the refrigerator cabinet inner compartment, making the installation more complex.
  • document KR2008029046 discloses a drawer assembling structure which comprises using, between the track and the cabinet surface in which it is installed, a spring which, through the pressure exerted on the track, tends to compensate the horizontal displacement of the drawer and thereby reducing said clearance, and hence the misalignment.
  • a spring which, through the pressure exerted on the track, tends to compensate the horizontal displacement of the drawer and thereby reducing said clearance, and hence the misalignment.
  • Document JP4254670 discloses a removable structure which allows using, instead of a single large tray, several drawers of different storage capacities. However, it is a horizontal structure which interferes with the entire base of the cooled compartment and on which other drawers are supported, also presenting significant limitation with respect to variability of internal volumes of storage products.
  • Document BR P10504387-5 describes a vertical structure to be engaged within the inner compartment of a refrigerator appliance having a support function for the engagement of other internal components, for example, drawers. Such a solution, however, does not address the possibility of variation of the refrigerator compartment intended specifically for the installation of the vegetable drawer nor the particulars of its installation and use.
  • the present invention aims primarily to solve the technical problem of undue movements and consequent horizontal and vertical misalignment that occurs with drawers of household appliances - especially refrigerators - when opening or closing for use, and optionally promote such benefits together with the possibility of modularization of a cooled compartment for storing a sliding drawer.
  • the main objective of the present invention is to reveal a movable compartment and movable compartment engagement system for household appliances that, without comprising a plurality of constituent elements, minimizes to the maximum the possibility of displacement in horizontal and vertical directions during handling the compartments, in order to avoid undue disengaging and falls.
  • said engagement system comprises the following essential characteristics:
  • the sliding means comprise according to the invention on the outer side of its side surfaces, at least one engagement element cooperating with the side walls.
  • the invention is also characterized by the fact that said system comprises means for eliminating side movement clearances of the movable compartment, means for eliminating possible diagonal displacement of the movable compartment during its movement, and means for absorbing variation in the movable compartment assembling, wherein the means for eliminating side movement clearances of the movable compartment comprises semicircular protrusions and longitudinal slots; wherein the means for eliminating possible diagonal displacement of the movable compartment comprises a lower inner channel, and wherein the means for absorbing variation in the movable compartment assembling comprises at least one semicircular protrusion.
  • the sliding means comprise members made of non-metallic material, and the at least one engagement element cooperates with the side walls of the cabinet by one of the following means: snap, interference or snap-fit.
  • the present invention also relates to a household appliance comprising sliding means described above.
  • the present invention relates to a movable compartment and movable compartment engagement system intended for household appliances, more specifically, refrigerators apparatus, defined by a cabinet 10 comprising left 131 and right 132 side walls and back 133 and lower 134 surfaces delimiting at least one inner compartment 11 capable of housing at least one movable compartment 20 (or drawer) as can be best viewed in the appended Figure 2 , 6.1 and 6.2 , which usually presents right 21 and left 22 side walls whose upper edges protrudes outward and downward, forming skirts 23.
  • each upper edges of the side walls 21 and 22 of the movable compartment 20 comprises at least one substantially convex protrusion 24, while on the longitudinal surface of the skirt 23 of the movable compartment 20 is located a protrusion 25 that, in the presented exemplary preferred embodiment, has a substantially triangular form having a substantially convex lower end 26.
  • the system of the present invention comprises two sliding means 100 and 200 with constructive particularities aimed at minimizing and / or absorbing to the maximum the possibilities of horizontal and vertical displacement of the movable compartment 20 or drawer, as well as its diagonally displacement, so as to make a smoother sliding along the tracks and with little risk of suffering jamming or undue disengaging which may cause the fall of the compartment 20.
  • the system presented herein comprises a track or slide means 100, represented in detail in appended Figures 4.1 and 4.2 , which, in the preferred embodiment presented herein, is preferably installed in a built-in manner in the left side wall 131 of the cabinet 10 with the aid of at least one engagement means 101 which may be a rod, pin or protrusion liable to be coupled to a snap or hole of the left side wall 131 of the cabinet 10 by snap, interference or snap-fit so that it is not necessary to use any engagement means or additional tool for installation of the slide means 100.
  • engagement means 101 may be a rod, pin or protrusion liable to be coupled to a snap or hole of the left side wall 131 of the cabinet 10 by snap, interference or snap-fit so that it is not necessary to use any engagement means or additional tool for installation of the slide means 100.
  • the slide means 100 has a lower inner channel 102 for sliding the substantially convex lower end 26 of the movable compartment 20, and an upper surface 107 with which the substantially convex protrusion 24 will remain in contact to prevent vertical displacement of the movable compartment 20, thereby facilitating its opening and closing during use.
  • the front end of said lower inner channel 102 is provided with a semicircular protrusion 103 provided with a longitudinal slot 104 which has a width substantially coincident with the width of the lower end of the skirt 23 of the movable compartment 20, so as to provide a fitted engagement of the skirt 23 and prevent that in this inlet point - which is usually the most critical location for the occurrence of displacement that, in similar ones known in the current state of the art, entails a diagonally movement that significantly hinders the sliding of the drawer - there are clearances which allow the movable cabinet leaves the proper trajectory.
  • This fitted snap can be seen in enlarged detail in attached Figure 7 .
  • the system comprises a slide means 200 (shown in Figures 5.1 and 5.2 ) designed to be installed on the right side wall 132 of the inner compartment 11, which also comprises a lower inner channel 202 cooperating with the substantially convex lower end 26 of the movable compartment 20, and a upper surface 207 cooperating with the substantially convex protrusion 24 of the movable compartment 20, and the front end of said lower inner channel 202 has a semicircular protrusion 203 also provided with longitudinal slot 204, however in order to facilitate the engagement of the drawer, it is significantly wider than the width of the skirt 23 of the movable compartment 20.
  • the sliding means 100 and 200 are provided, on the inner face of the side surfaces 105 and 205, with resilient elements 106, 206 which, after fastening the sliding means 100/200 to the side walls 131/132 of the cabinet 10, acquire convex surfaces form (see description of appended Figure 7.2 ) designed for the inner region of the sliding means 100, 200.
  • the resilient elements 106 and 206 of the sliding means 100 and 200 exert forces in opposite directions against the skirts 23 of the movable compartment 20 so as to prevent horizontal displacement thereof and, consequently, always maintaining it in the suitable slide position.
  • the resilient elements 106/206 can be made of the same material of the sliding means 100/200, or comprise separate elements of any resilient materials solidary with the side surfaces 105 and 205 without, therefore, departing from the scope of protection claimed herein.
  • the sliding means 100, 200 associated with a movable structure as that shown in attached Figures 8 to 10 , which comprise more specifically, a member 500, preferably in a vertical plate form, removably cooperating with the back 133 and lower 134 surfaces of the case 10. Therefore, the back and lower end of member 500 may be provided with any engagement means to removably cooperate with the back 133 and lower 134 surfaces of the cabinet 10 by snap, interference or snap-fit. It should be noted that this embodiment also aims at not using any kind of metallic component due to the reason already expressed above.
  • said member 500 comprises left side surface 501 comprising one or more sliding means 200 cooperating with a movable compartment 20, and the left side surface 502 comprising one or more sliding means 100 cooperating with a movable compartment 20.
  • both sides of the plate 500 are provided with tracks that allow the user to make different arrangements of drawers or movable compartments 20, thus providing the optimization of the available space and also the separation of the stored products according to its individual preferences.
  • the member 500 in order to enable the practical use of the member 500 as a subdivisor element of the inner compartment 11, it can be provide for the possibility of installing additional members 500 along the sidewalls 131, 132 of the cabinet, or the possibility of engaging various sliding means 100, 200 on said side walls 131, 132 (see Figure 9 ) for a wide possibility of alternative arrangement for engaging the movable compartments 20.
  • Figures 9 and 10 An example of this modularity is shown in Figures 9 and 10 , which disclose the use of three movable compartments 20 of different capacities in the inner compartment 11, and by removing member 500, the use of a single movable compartment is allowed.
  • the object of the present invention solves the drawbacks of the prior art in an economical, practical and effective manner regarding the solution of the problem of making the engagement of sliding drawers safer and versatile in household refrigerators.
