Description

Kühl- und/oder GefriergerätFridge and / or freezer

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Kühl- und/oder Gefriergerät, insbesondere einen Weinlagerschrank, mit wenigstens einem Korpus, in dem sich zumindest ein gekühlter Innenraum befindet, und mit wenigstens einem Ablageboden, der in dem gekühlten Innenraum angeordnet ist.The present invention relates to a refrigerator and / or freezer, in particular a wine storage cabinet, with at least one body, in which there is at least one cooled interior, and at least one shelf, which is arranged in the cooled interior.

Aus dem Stand der Technik sind Kühlgeräte, insbesondere Weinlagerschränke bekannt, die als Ablageböden Holzroste aufweisen. Zur Beschriftung werden Zusatzteile verwendet, die auf den Holzrost aufgeklipst werden. Wir verweisen in diesem Zusammenhang auf die DE 10 2008 054 418 A1 . Diese Zusatzteile in Form von Etikettenhaltern sowie den Etiketten müssen dem Gerät beigelegt werden. JP 09072654 offenbart ein Kühl und/oder Gefriergerät gemäß dem Oberbegriffs des Anspruchs 1.Cooling appliances, in particular wine storage cabinets, which have wooden shelves as shelves, are known from the prior art. For labeling additional parts are used, which are clipped onto the wooden grid. In this context, we refer to the DE 10 2008 054 418 A1 , These additional parts in the form of label holders and the labels must be enclosed with the device. JP 09072654 discloses a refrigerator and / or freezer according to the preamble of claim 1.

Bei der Verwendung derartiger Etikettenhalter besteht ein Problem darin, dass die Halter gegebenenfalls nicht ausreichend auf den Leisten des aus Holz bestehenden Ablagebodens halten.One problem with the use of such label holders is that the holders may not adequately support the last of the wooden storage shelf.

Abgesehen davon ist die Verwendung mehrerer Etikettenhalter für einen Ablageboden zur Beschriftung von Flaschen vergleichsweise unpraktikabel und wenig optisch ansprechend, da das frontseitige Holzprofil in diesem Fall mit den üblicherweise aus Kunststoff bestehenden Etikettenhaltern vollflächig abgedeckt wird.Apart from that, the use of multiple label holder for a shelf for labeling bottles is relatively impractical and little optical appealing, since the front-side wood profile is covered in this case with the usually made of plastic label holders over the entire surface.

Ein weiterer Nachteil der bekannten Lösung besteht darin, dass der Austausch der Etiketten bzw. die Neubeschriftung vergleichsweise umständlich ist.Another disadvantage of the known solution is that the replacement of the labels or the new label is relatively cumbersome.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Kühl- und/oder Gefriergerät, insbesondere einen Weinschrank, der eingangs genannten Art dahingehend weiterzubilden, dass eine optisch ansprechende Beschriftung des Ablagebodens möglich ist.The present invention is therefore based on the object, a refrigerator and / or freezer, in particular a wine cabinet, of the type mentioned in such a way that a visually appealing lettering of the shelf is possible.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Kühl- und/oder Gefriergerät mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Danach ist vorgesehen, dass an dem Ablageboden wenigstens ein transparentes oder transluzentes Element zum Zwecke der Beschriftung des Ablagebodens angeordnet ist und dass das Kühl- und/oder Gefriergerät Beleuchtungsmittel aufweist, die derart angeordnet sind, dass die Beleuchtungsmittel das genannte Element hinterleuchten.This object is achieved by a refrigerator and / or freezer with the features of claim 1. Thereafter, it is provided that at least one transparent or translucent element for the purpose of labeling the storage shelf is arranged on the shelf and that the refrigerator and / or freezer device has lighting means which are arranged such that the illumination means backlight said element.

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft somit ein Kühl- und/oder Gefriergerät, dessen Ablageboden bzw. -böden eine hinterleuchtete Beschriftung aufweisen. Dies bringt den Vorteil mit sich, dass die Beschriftung gut erkennbar ist und insgesamt ein optisch ansprechendes Erscheinungsbild gegeben wird.The present invention thus relates to a refrigerator and / or freezer, the shelf or shelves have a backlit label. This has the advantage that the label is easily recognizable and overall gives a visually appealing appearance.

Die Beschriftung erfolgt unmittelbar auf der zum Nutzer gewandten Seite des transparenten oder transluzenten Elementes und ist vorzugsweise derart ausgebildet, dass sie durch einen Nutzer durch Abwischen entfernt werden kann. In diesem Fall wird somit für den Nutzer eine Beschriftungsmöglichkeit des Ablagebodens und damit der zu lagernden Ware gegeben, die mit einfachen Mitteln wieder entfernbar, das heißt abwischbar ist.The labeling takes place directly on the side of the transparent or translucent element facing the user and is preferably designed such that it can be removed by a user by wiping. In this case, a labeling possibility of the storage shelf and thus the goods to be stored is thus given to the user, which can be removed again by simple means, that is wiped.

Vorzugsweise ist vorgesehen, dass der Ablageboden eine Vorderseite bzw. Oberseite aufweist und dass sich das genannte transparente oder transluzente Element und damit auch die Beschriftung an der Vorderseite und/oder an der Oberseite des Ablagebodens befindet. Grundsätzlich ist auch jede andere Positionierung des Elementes und somit auch der Beschriftung denkbar und von der Erfindung mit umfasst.It is preferably provided that the shelf has a front or top side and that said transparent or translucent element and thus the label is located on the front and / or on the top of the shelf. In principle, any other positioning of the element and thus also the lettering is conceivable and encompassed by the invention.

In einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass das Element eine Fläche aufweist, die so ausgebildet ist, dass eine Beschriftung von der Fläche abwischbar ist, wobei vorzugsweise vorgesehen ist, dass sich diese Fläche auf der Vorderseite und/oder auf der Oberseite des Ablagebodens befindet. Denkbar ist es beispielsweise, dass die Beschriftung mittels eines Markers erfolgt und dass die genannte Fläche des Elementes so ausgebildet ist, dass diese Beschriftung durch Abwischen ggf. mit Wasser oder Reinigungsmitteln entfernbar ist.In a further embodiment of the invention it is provided that the element has a surface which is formed so that a label can be wiped off the surface, wherein it is preferably provided that this surface on the front and / or on the top of the storage tray located. It is conceivable, for example, that the labeling is done by means of a marker and that said surface of the element is designed so that this label is removable by wiping with water or cleaning agents if necessary.

In einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass das Element insgesamt oder wenigstens eine Fläche des Elementes aus Glas oder Kunststoff, insbesondere aus PMMA oder PC besteht. Diese Materialien weisen Oberflächen auf, die ein einfaches Entfernen eines Markers bzw. einer Filzstiftbeschriftung ermöglichen.In a further embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the element as a whole or at least one surface of the element consists of glass or plastic, in particular of PMMA or PC. These materials have surfaces that allow easy removal of a marker or felt pen label.

Das genannte Element, das zur Beschriftung des Ablagebodens dient, kann sich über die gesamte Breite des Ablagebodens oder nur über einen Teil der Breite des Ablagebodens erstrecken.Said element, which serves for labeling the shelf, may extend over the entire width of the shelf or only over a part of the width of the shelf.

Das genannte Element kann einen festen bzw. integralen Bestandteil des Ablagebodens bilden. Von der Erfindung ist jedoch auch der Fall umfasst, dass das Element als von dem Ablageboden abnehmbares Teil ausgebildet ist. Denkbar ist es, dass das Element so ausgeführt ist, dass es z. B. von der Seite auf den Ablageboden aufgeschoben werden kann oder z. B. auf die Frontseite des Ablagebodens aufgeklipst werden kann.The said element can form a solid or integral part of the storage shelf. However, the invention also includes the case that the element is designed as a removable part of the shelf. It is conceivable that the element is designed so that it z. B. can be pushed from the side of the shelf or z. B. can be clipped onto the front of the shelf.

Die Abnehmbarkeit des Elementes bringt den Vorteil einer einfachen Reinigung mit sich.The removability of the element brings the advantage of easy cleaning with it.

Denkbar ist es, dass das Element als Blende ausgeführt ist, die sich über die gesamte Vorderseite des Ablagebodens oder über einen Teilbereich der Vorderseite des Ablagebodens erstreckt.It is conceivable that the element is designed as a panel which extends over the entire front of the storage shelf or over a portion of the front of the storage shelf.

Ein Abnehmen der Blende bzw. des Elementes vom Ablageboden vereinfacht das Beschriften des Elementes.A removal of the panel or the element from the shelf simplifies the labeling of the element.

Denkbar ist es, dass das Element auf seiner vom Ablageboden abgewandten vorderen Fläche und/oder auf seiner zum Ablageboden hingewandten hinteren Fläche beschichtet oder bedruckt ist, um einen möglichst guten Kontrast mit der Beschriftung und somit eine möglichst gute Lesbarkeit der Beschriftung zu gewährleisten. Die Beschriftung kann beispielsweise durch einen Filzstift bzw. Marker aufgebracht sein.It is conceivable that the element is coated or printed on its front surface facing away from the storage shelf and / or on its rear surface facing the storage shelf in order to ensure the best possible contrast with the lettering and thus the best possible readability of the lettering. The label can be applied for example by a felt-tip pen or marker.

In einer denkbaren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung befindet sich das Beleuchtungsmittel hinter dem Element. Es kann beispielsweise als LED oder dergleichen ausgeführt sein.In a conceivable embodiment of the invention, the illumination means is located behind the element. It can be designed, for example, as an LED or the like.

Auch ist es denkbar, dass sich das Beleuchtungsmittel nicht hinter dem Element befindet, sodass eine indirekte Hinterleuchtung erfolgt. Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung stellt eine indirekte Beleuchtung der beschrifteten Blende bzw. des beschrifteten Elementes dar.It is also conceivable that the lighting means is not behind the element, so that an indirect backlighting takes place. An advantageous embodiment of the invention provides an indirect illumination of the labeled panel or the labeled element.

Denkbar ist es weiterhin, dass der gekühlte Innenraum durch wenigstens einen Innenbehälter begrenzt ist und dass die Beleuchtungsmittel an dem Innenbehälter und vorzugsweise an einer oder beiden Seitenwänden des Innenbehälters angeordnet sind. Von dort aus erfolgt eine Beleuchtung des Ablagebodens von der Seite. Befindet sich hinter dem Element ein Freiraum für das von den Beleuchtungsmitteln ausgehende Licht, kann auf diese Weise eine Einkopplung des Lichtes in die Blende und somit eine Hinterleuchtung des oder der Elemente bzw. der Blende erreicht werden.It is also conceivable that the cooled interior is limited by at least one inner container and that the illumination means are arranged on the inner container and preferably on one or both side walls of the inner container. From there, the shelf is illuminated from the side. If there is a clearance behind the element for the light emanating from the illumination means, coupling of the light into the diaphragm and thus backlighting of the element or diaphragm can be achieved in this way.

Somit ist es denkbar, durch eine Beleuchtung seitlich im Innenbehälter die Hinterleuchtung des Elementes zu erreichen und das Element bzw. die Blende bei eingeschobenem Ablageboden bzw. Flaschenablage seitlich mit Licht indirekt zu beleuchten.Thus, it is conceivable to achieve the backlighting of the element by means of illumination laterally in the inner container and to indirectly illuminate the element or the aperture with light laterally when the shelf or bottle rest is inserted.

Durch die Beleuchtung bzw. Hinterleuchtung wird die Beschriftung auf dem Element optisch hervorgehoben.The illumination or backlighting highlights the label on the element.

Denkbar ist es weiterhin, dass die Beleuchtungsmittel an dem Ablageboden selbst angeordnet sind. So ist z. B. eine vorzugsweise dauerhafte Beleuchtung in dem Ablageboden seitlich oder auch an einer anderen Stelle möglich. Gemäß der Erfindung ist der Ablageboden herausziehbar und die Beleuchtungsmittel so ausgebildet sind, dass auch bei herausgezogenem Ablageboden eine Beleuchtung erfolgt.It is also conceivable that the lighting means are arranged on the shelf itself. So z. B. a preferably permanent lighting in the shelf floor laterally or at another location possible. According to the invention, the shelf is pulled out and the lighting means are designed so that even when the shelf is pulled out a lighting.

Die Beleuchtungsmittel können beispielsweise ein oder mehrere LEDs, Glühbirnen, OLEDs etc. umfassen. Auch ist es denkbar, dass die Beleuchtungsmittel zumindest einen Lichtleiter aufweisen, der das Licht von einer Lichtquelle zu dem zu beleuchtenden Bereich leitet. Beispielsweise ist es denkbar, dass der Lichtleiter in seinem einen Endbereich mit einer Lichtquelle, wie beispielsweise mit einer LED in Verbindung steht bzw. dort Licht eingekoppelt wird und an seinem anderen Endbereich hinter dem zu hinterleuchtenden Element endet. Auf diese Weise ist es auch möglich, mehrere der Elemente bzw. ein Element an mehreren Positionen mit nur einem Lichtleiter zu hinterleuchten.The illumination means may comprise, for example, one or more LEDs, light bulbs, OLEDs, etc. It is also conceivable for the illumination means to have at least one light guide which conducts the light from a light source to the area to be illuminated. For example, it is conceivable for the optical waveguide in its one end region to be in connection with a light source, such as, for example, an LED, or for light to be coupled in at the other end region behind the element to be backlit. In this way it is also possible to backlight several of the elements or an element at several positions with only one light guide.

Die Erfindung betrifft des Weiteren einen Ablageboden für ein Kühl- und/oder Gefriergerät bzw. eines Kühl- und/oder Gefriergerätes, das gemäß einem der Ansprüche 1 bis 10 ausgebildet ist.The invention further relates to a shelf for a refrigerator and / or freezer or a refrigerator and / or freezer, which is designed according to one of claims 1 to 10.

Weitere Einzelheiten und Vorteile der Erfindung werden anhand eines in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels erläutert.Further details and advantages of the invention will be explained with reference to an embodiment shown in the drawing.

Die einzige Abbildung zeigt in perspektivischer Ansicht einen Ablageboden mit einer frontseitigen Blende zur Beschriftung.The single figure shows a perspective view of a shelf with a front panel for labeling.

Wie dies aus Figur 1 hervorgeht, besteht der Ablageboden aus einem Rost, der von einer Einrahmung umgeben ist. Der Holzrost ist mit dem Bezugszeichen 10 gekennzeichnet. Die Einrahmung weist das Bezugszeichen 20 auf. Einrahmung 20 und Holzrost 10 können einteilig oder auch mehrteilig ausgeführt sein.Like this FIG. 1 shows, the shelf consists of a grate, which is surrounded by a framing. The wooden grate is marked with the reference numeral 10. The framing has the reference numeral 20. Framing 20 and wooden grid 10 may be made in one piece or multiple parts.

Die Vorderseite 30 des Rahmens 20 ist durch eine Blende 40 verdeckt, die das erfindungsgemäße Element bildet, das zur Beschriftung des Ablagebodens dient. Dies ist exemplarisch durch das Wort "Beschriftung" in der Figur gekennzeichnet. Das Bezugszeichen 50 kennzeichnet den Ort der Einstrahlung der indirekten Beleuchtung der Blende 40. Die Einstrahlung kann durch Leuchtmittel erfolgen, die an dem Ablageboden selbst angeordnet sind oder auch durch Leuchtmittel, die sich an oder in dem Innenbehälter des Kühl- und/oder Gefriergerätes befinden, in dem sich der Ablageboden befindet.The front side 30 of the frame 20 is covered by a panel 40 which forms the element according to the invention, which serves to label the shelf. This is exemplified by the word "inscription" in the figure. The reference numeral 50 denotes the location of the irradiation of the indirect illumination of the diaphragm 40. The irradiation can be carried out by means of illuminants which are arranged on the shelf itself or by means of illuminants which are located on or in the inner container of the refrigerator and / or freezer. in which the shelf is located.

Die Blende 40 besteht aus einer Glasleiste, die frontseitig auf die Vorderseite des Ablagebodens aufgesetzt ist. Sie weist eine zu dem Nutzer hingewandte Vorderseite V auf, die z. B. durch einen Filzstift oder Marker oder dergleichen beschriftet werden kann.The panel 40 consists of a glass strip, which is placed on the front side on the front of the storage shelf. It has a side facing the user V front, the z. B. can be labeled by a felt pen or marker or the like.

Anstelle von Glas kann auch ein anderes transparentes oder transluzentes Material verwendet werden. Soll die Beschriftung geändert werden, ist es denkbar, dass der Nutzer diese gegebenenfalls durch Wasser chemische Hilfsmittel und/oder einfach durch Abwischen entfernt. So ist es möglich, ohne weiteres neue Beschriftungen aufzubringen.Instead of glass, another transparent or translucent material may be used. If the label is to be changed, it is conceivable that the user removes them, if necessary, by water-chemical aids and / or simply by wiping. So it is possible to easily apply new labels.

Wie ausgeführt, kann die Blende bedruckt oder beschichtet sein, sodass die Beschriftung auf der Blende besonders gut lesbar ist.As stated, the bezel can be printed or coated so that the lettering on the bezel is particularly easy to read.

Die Blende 40 kann einen integralen Bestandteil des Ablagebodens darstellen oder auch auf den Ablageboden aufgesetzt werden. Dies kann beispielsweise durch eine Rastverbindung oder durch Aufschieben beispielsweise in seitlicher Richtung auf die Frontseite des Ablagebodens erfolgen.The panel 40 may be an integral part of the storage shelf or be placed on the shelf. This can be done for example by a snap-in connection or by pushing, for example, in the lateral direction on the front of the storage shelf.

Befindet sich das Leuchtmittel am Ablageboden selbst besteht die Möglichkeit, dass auch bei herausgezogenem bzw. entnommenen Ablageboden eine Hinterleuchtung der Beschriftung bzw. der Blende 40 erfolgt.If the lamp is located on the shelf itself, there is the possibility that even when the shelf is pulled out or removed, a backlighting of the inscription or the panel 40 takes place.

In diesem Fall weist der Ablageboden eine autarke Energieversorgung in Form wenigstens einer Batterie, Akku, Kondensators oder dergleichen auf, oder es erfolgt eine induktive Kopplung, mittels derer die Energie in den Ablageboden übertragen wird. Bei dem Kondensator kann es sich beispielsweise um einen sogenannten Superkondensator bzw. um eine sogenannte Ultracap-Zelle handeln. Derartige Kondensatoren weisen je nach ihrer Bauart Kapazitäten von mehreren Hundert oder mehreren Tausend F auf.In this case, the shelf has a self-sufficient power supply in the form of at least one battery, battery, capacitor or the like, or there is an inductive coupling, by means of which the energy is transmitted to the shelf. The capacitor may, for example, be a so-called supercapacitor or a so-called ultracap cell. Depending on their design, capacitors of this kind have capacities of several hundred or several thousand F.

Superkondensatoren sind passive elektronische Bauelemente und haben unter den Kondensatoren die höchsten Kapazitätswerte pro Bauelement, die mit bis zu 10.000 F/1,2 V etwa 10.000-fach größer sind als die von Elektrolytkondensatoren, die ebenfalls von der Erfindung mit umfasst sind.Supercapacitors are passive electronic components and have among the capacitors the highest capacitance values per device, which are up to 10,000 F / 1.2 V about 10,000 times greater than that of electrolytic capacitors, which are also included in the invention.
