- Refrigeration device 100 is disposed and includes a leak detection device 101. From the function valve and the valve housing 1 13 performs a water pipe 1 1 1 to an automatic ice maker 139 and / or other water output. In the valve housing 1 13, the drip pan 103 is integrated for the leak water.
- Valve body 1 13 also serves as a receiving housing for a function valve and for the components that are responsible for the leak detection. Leaks in the interior of the refrigeration device 100 may occur in particular at connection points or connection points of different water-conducting components.
- the elastic water pipe 1 1 1 is guided by a conduit 109 to the hose guide, which is laid in the insulation foam of the refrigerator 100.
- the empty tube 109 is used for easy hose routing.
- the empty tube 109 is used to discharge the leak water, which may occur in the course of the water pipe 1 1 1 and their connection point to other components.
- the conduits 109 are connected to the valve housing 1 13, that the leakage water is passed into the sump 103 in the interior of the valve housing 1 13.
- the connection points and transitions of different water-carrying components can be protected by surrounding conduits 109 from water leakage.
- Fig. 3 shows a structure of the valve housing 1 13 and other functional components.
- the refrigeration device 100 includes the safety valve 121 at the water connection 1 17 and the
- the function valve 1 15 allows a regulated water flow to output water from the water cycle.

- the safety valve 121 and the function valve 15 are connected in series.
- Functional valve 1 15 is in the direction of the water flow in the water cycle after
- Safety valve 121 is arranged. Even if one of the two valves has a water supply due to a malfunction should not be able to close, in this case, the water supply from the other of the two valves can be closed. Even with a temporary dripping valve, therefore, the water supply can be completely closed.
- Both the safety valve 121 and the function valve 15 can be electrically switched by a control device.
- a control device By the electronic control of the valves both a simultaneous as well as a time-delayed switching on and off of the valves is possible.
- Valve housing 1 13 arranged such that possibly occurring leakage water is collected in the drip pan 103.
- the drip pan 103 has an overflow 105 for collected water leakage.
- the overflow 105 serves, on the one hand, to protect the electrical components from rising leakage water and, on the other hand, to remove the excess leakage water.
- the drip pan 103 is arranged above an evaporation tray 107.

- Drip pan 103 in the interior of the valve housing 1 13 has a small collecting volume for leakage water.
- the microswitch 129 For actuation of the microswitch 129 by means of the float 131 in the event of a leak, therefore, only a small volume of water is required. As a result, the advantage is achieved that even with small amounts of leaking water a leak can be reliably detected. If additional water flows out of the leak, it is passed on via the overflow 105 in a controlled manner to the evaporation tray 107 with a larger collecting volume.
- the collecting trough 103 is arranged above the evaporation tray 107, so that water flows into the evaporation tray 107 from the overflow 105 due to gravity into the evaporation tray.
- the overflow 105 may be connected to the evaporation tray 107 by means of a hose.
- a hose may be connected to the evaporation tray 107 by means of a hose.
- Construction can be made.

- Power lines and the line connector inside the refrigerator 100 are spatially arranged so that they can not come into contact with water. These are
- the safety valve 121 is closed in the event of a leak and the water flow to the refrigeration device 100 is interrupted at the connection point to the water supply.
- the actuated microswitch 129 outputs a signal to a control device, so that a power supply to the function valve 1 15 via the control device is also interrupted.
- both the function valve 1 15 and the safety valve 121 are in the closed state. If the power supply is interrupted, the valves close automatically.
- Power supply mechanically provides maximum shutdown safety.
- a visible or audible alarm is output on the operating part of the refrigeration device 100.

In addition, the check valve 133 prevents that the water contained in the refrigerator 100 flows back into the domestic water pipe. By using the check valve 133 in the interior of the water cycle, this can be achieved in a particularly safe and space-saving manner. Unlike other home appliances, such as dishwashers, which have a free-flow path use, the use of the check valve 133 in the water cycle of the
