It is the object of the present invention to create a household appliance in which a more compact construction can be achieved with a handle arranged on an appliance component and yet improved functionality is achieved.

This object is achieved by a domestic appliance which has the features according to claim 1.

A household appliance according to the invention comprises a housing. In addition, the domestic appliance includes an appliance component which is arranged on the housing and is designed separately from the housing. The device component is arranged on the housing so that it can move relative to it. In addition, the household appliance includes a handle that is arranged on the appliance component. An essential idea of the invention is that the handle has a recessed grip that can be gripped from behind and is delimited by a front wall of the handle and an inclined bottom wall of the handle. As a result, a specifically shaped handle is formed, through which the installation space can be reduced in the depth direction of the device component. In addition, for ergonomic reasons, intervention from above is more user-friendly. Finally, this specifically designed recessed grip, which is delimited by very specifically arranged and oriented walls, can also be used to combine additional functionality with the handle. In this context, it is then also possible for at least one wall, which delimits the recessed grip, to be used to display information as a result of this orientation. Precisely because the recessed grip is accessible from above, this display of information can also be presented in a very simple and intuitively perceptible manner for a user.

It is provided that the bottom wall opens with a front edge at a lower edge of the front wall of the handle. As a result, the lowest point of the recessed grip is created in the front area, so to speak, towards the front and thus facing a user standing in front of the household appliance. This makes it particularly advantageous to reach behind the front wall and thus to safely actuate the device component. This prevents it from slipping off the front wall or the like. In addition, this specific arrangement also makes the orientation of the inclined base wall advantageous with regard to the user who is in front of the household appliance being offered an inclined position facing it, so that a corresponding information presentation also falls into the user's field of vision.

In addition, it is provided that the bottom wall has an electronic operating and/or electronic display unit on the side facing the recessed grip. As a result, an information presentation and/or an operating option is created in a particularly advantageous manner. The bottom wall, straight with its slanted Positioning and thus enables a comprehensive and easily perceptible display of information, on the other hand also enables user-friendly and smooth operation, since the corresponding orientation of the bottom wall means that the operating surface and the operating elements are facing the user and therefore without a complex movement and thus without bending or bending a finger unnecessarily to have to, the actuation can be realized.

Accessibility for operating these operating elements in the recessed grip is therefore also very ergonomic.

Furthermore, the base wall is integrated into the device component as a separate insert. This allows an individual appearance to be created for the handle. Materially different base walls can be used as inserts. The structuring can also be given individually and/or the coloring can be designed individually. In this way, a large number of variants of the handle can be easily produced by only individually selecting and incorporating the base wall. This means that different device types or device variants can also be easily taken into account.

Provision is preferably made for the base wall to be arranged at an angle of between 25° and 65°, in particular between 35° and 55°, to the front wall of the handle. This is particularly advantageous in that, on the one hand, the ergonomic ability to reach behind is favorable and the fingers are not dragging along too steep a floor wall for a long time when the front wall is being reached from behind. On the other hand, this specific orientation also makes it particularly advantageous to present information on it, because optical reflections or other reflections can be reduced to the greatest extent as a result. The perceptibility of correspondingly presented information is particularly advantageous with such an inclined arrangement of the bottom wall.

In an advantageous embodiment it is provided that the front wall of the handle is oriented vertically. Viewed in the depth direction of the device component, this enables a very compact configuration of the handle and at most a minimal overhang to the front, in particular no overhang at all to the front. Also This improves the advantages mentioned above in terms of maximum grip ability and slip resistance.

Provision is preferably made for the operating unit to have touch-sensitive operating elements. As a result, the structure above the bottom wall is virtually not increased, since these touch-sensitive operating areas are designed with sensors arranged underneath. This does not affect the installation space of the recessed grip.

It is preferably provided that the display unit comprises a TFT display. As a result, both static and dynamic information can be displayed, and both the variety of colors and the authenticity of the presentation of information are particularly high. Furthermore, a very flat structure of the display unit is thereby also made possible, which in turn means that the recessed grip is not restricted in terms of its installation space.

It is preferably provided that, viewed in the vertical direction of the device component, an upper end of the base wall is arranged further up than an upper end of the front wall of the handle. This is a particularly advantageous embodiment in that, as it were, the bottom wall, viewed in the vertical direction, protrudes further upwards than the front wall, despite its inclined position. On the one hand, this improves accessibility to the recessed grip, on the other hand, it is particularly easier for a user to present information and then, in particular, to perceive information. Because he doesn't have to first look behind the front wall, but can also see information that is already presented optically at a flatter angle to the handle.

Provision is preferably made for the bottom wall to be made of glass. This makes it easy to clean. A very smooth, low-friction surface in this regard can also result in an undesirable feeling of touch or an undesirable abrasion on a finger or the like when a user reaches into the recessed grip with his fingers and touches the bottom wall. This increases user-friendliness. In particular, the design made of glass also conveys a very high-quality impression that is to be emphasized in terms of quality, so that a valuable appearance occurs. In particular, due to the design made of glass, in particular at least partially made of a transparent glass, which favors the optical presentation of information. Especially when optical signals are emitted by light sources, impairment by the glass with regard to intensity reduction and/or light distortion is minimized.

Provision is preferably made for the recessed grip to be delimited in the direction of its width at opposite ends by delimiting walls. These boundary walls are in particular triangular, which then preferably results when the front wall is oriented vertically and the bottom wall is arranged correspondingly inclined to it. In the depth direction, these lateral boundary walls do not protrude forwards in relation to the front wall, so that a very compact structure is also achieved here. These boundary walls also ensure that a certain lateral protective wall is formed on the bottom wall, especially in the case of optical representations of information, so that no incident light impairs the perceptibility of the optically presented information.

Provision is preferably made for at least the front wall of the handle to be integrated into the device component. With such a one-piece configuration, on the one hand, no effort is required to assemble handle components. On the other hand, a uniform and therefore also one-piece overall picture is then presented, especially when viewed from the front. When viewed from the front, the handle as such is not superficially perceptible at all, but rather the front wall of the handle is perceived as belonging to the front wall of the device component.

Provision is preferably made for the bottom wall to be designed as a separate part and in the manner of a plate. Such a configuration allows a handle to be designed in a variety of ways in terms of its visual appearance.

The plate-like design enables the bottom wall to have a very simple geometry, which can be easily manufactured and then also easily assembled.

In a further advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the device component has a one-piece strip part or a one-piece base part, which in particular covers the device component from above. In this basic part is the Recessed grip integrated into its shape. This means that the front wall of the recessed grip is integrated into it. In particular, it is provided that the bottom wall is separate from this one-piece base part. In order to be able to arrange the bottom wall accordingly in the base part, this base part has in particular a sloping accommodation bed which is also integrated into this base part. The inclination of this accommodation bed already corresponds to the subsequently desired inclination of the bottom wall that is still to be introduced. In particular, it is then provided that the bottom wall designed as an insert is arranged countersunk in this receiving bed. The number of components in this design with the one-piece base part is reduced and the bottom wall can still be used individually as a variant part or replacement part. Due to the arrangement in the accommodation bed, this floor wall is also arranged in a stable and positionally secure manner. Precisely because of the sunken positioning of this bottom wall in the accommodating bed, on the one hand simple assembly is made possible, on the other hand a stable fit of the bottom wall is achieved and, moreover, the recessed grip is not undesirably restricted in terms of its volume.

Provision is preferably made for the accommodation bed to have an undercut or a pocket on a first longitudinal side, in particular on an upper longitudinal side viewed in the vertical direction and horizontal in the depth direction, into which a first longitudinal edge of the insert arranged at an angle to a front side of the insert dips . In this way, the bottom wall is held securely in the accommodating bed in its fitted end position and the bottom wall is prevented from folding out undesirably in the direction of the front wall. In particular, this undercut then also presses this insert against the bottom side of this accommodation bed.

It is preferably provided that, in addition to or instead of this, a resilient tongue is formed on a second longitudinal side of the receiving bed, which tongue is in particular also integrated in one piece into the base part. A spring element of this type is thus integrated on a second longitudinal side facing the front wall, by means of which the insert is held securely in its position and on the other hand a particularly simple assembly is made possible.

In the assembled end state of the insert in this accommodation bed, it is provided that this resilient tongue is arranged in a pressing manner on a second longitudinal edge of the insert is. By means of this spring element, the insert is thus pressed in the assembled state in the direction of the undercut that is preferably present, so that it is pressed particularly stably into this undercut even with this arrangement of the first longitudinal edge, which is particularly precisely configured. In the assembled state of the insert in this receiving bed, provision is made for this resilient tongue to be arranged in a prestressed and thus also deflected state, so that the spring force resulting in the direction of the undercut acts accordingly.

Provision is advantageously made for the base part to have at least one insertion slot for the insert on the side of the receiving bed facing the front wall. In particular, a resilient tongue is arranged in this insertion slot. In the mounted state, the insert thus dips into this slot in some areas and then engages the resilient tongue. This ensures that the insert does not undesirably lift upwards when the spring element is pressed obliquely upwards in the direction of the opposite undercut. By inserting this into the slot, the insert is thus held in position parallel to the sloping bottom side of the accommodation bed and the force of the resilient tongue acting on the insert is thus also directed in such a way that the insert is as linear as possible in the direction of its plane in which it extends , is pressed and thus the shifting and pressing into the undercut takes place as linearly as possible.

Provision is advantageously made for the bottom wall of the handle to be arranged on the device component so that it can be detached in a non-destructive manner. This is an advantageous embodiment in that with regard to the possibilities mentioned above, a user can also design the handle individually at any time in order to be able to take into account the desired individual optical appearance.

It is preferably provided that the front wall of the handle is integrated in a front wall of the device component and the front wall of the handle is arranged flush with a front side of the front wall of the device component. This achieves a particularly compact design, since the handle does not protrude forwards in relation to the front side of the device component.

In an advantageous embodiment it is provided that the device component is a drawer. However, the device component can also be a door.

In particular, the household appliance is a household refrigeration appliance for holding food. For example, it can be a refrigerator or a freezer or a combined fridge-freezer. Foodstuffs, such as meals or drinks, can then be placed in said drawer. Information about the ambient conditions inside the drawer, such as temperature or humidity, can then be displayed on the existing operating and/or display unit. Likewise, in addition to or instead of this, information about the quantity and/or the type of food stored can also be provided be presented. In this context, information can be represented by letters or symbols or numbers.

If the appliance component is designed as a door, it can also be arranged to close off a storage space for food. Here, too, the information given as an example can be displayed.

Especially with the operating and/or display unit provided according to the invention, this is then integrated to save space in the handle itself or in an element forming the handle, namely the base wall, which delimits the specific type of handle with regard to the recessed grip.

The information “top”, “bottom”, “front”, “back”, “horizontal”, “vertical”, “depth direction”, “width direction”, “height direction” are the intended use and intended arrangement of the device and a positions and orientations given to the observer standing in front of the device and looking in the direction of the device.

In 1 In one exemplary embodiment, a household appliance 1 is shown, which here is in particular a household refrigeration appliance for holding food.

The household appliance 1 comprises a housing 2 in which two separate receiving spaces 3 and 4 for food are formed, to be understood merely as examples. The receiving space 3 can be closed by a door 5 which is pivotably arranged on the housing 2 . The receiving space 4 can be closed by a door 6 separate therefrom, which is also pivotably arranged on the housing 2 . In 1 the doors 5 and 6 are shown in the closed state.

In addition, in the exemplary embodiment, the household appliance 1 comprises a drawer 7 designed as an appliance component, which is shown in the pulled-out state. This drawer 7 can be moved relative to the housing 2 and is arranged on the housing 2 . It can be pushed back and forth linearly in the depth direction and thus in the z-direction. The drawer 7 includes a receiving space 8 in which food can be placed. The drawer 7 comprises a front wall 9 which delimits the receiving space 8 at the front and forms the front of the drawer 7 as an outer part. The front wall 9 has a handle 10 . The handle 10 is incorporated into the front wall 9 . The handle 10 comprises a recessed grip 11 that can be engaged from above or behind. In addition, the recessed grip 11 is delimited in the width direction and thus viewed in the x-direction by two boundary walls 14 and 15 at opposite ends of the recessed grip 11 and thus also towards the bottom wall 13 .

In 2 the drawer 7 is shown in the closed state.

It can also be seen there that in the exemplary embodiment, the household appliance 1 has a further drawer 16 arranged underneath it, which also includes a receiving space for food and is designed in the same way as the drawer 7, for example.

In 3 the front wall 9 of the drawer 7 is shown in a perspective sectional view with a sectional plane located in the yz plane. As can be seen, the front wall 12 of the handle 10 is oriented vertically and a front side 17 which faces away from the recessed grip 11 is arranged flush with a front side 18 of the front wall 9 . As can be seen, an angle α between the front wall 12 and the bottom wall 13 is between 25° and 65°, in particular between 30° and 50°.

As can also be seen, the bottom wall 13 opens with a front edge 13a to a lower edge 12a of the front wall 12. It can also be seen that in the vertical direction and thus in the y-direction an upper end 12b of the front wall 12 of the handle 10 is lower than an upper end 13b of the bottom wall 13.

The handle 10 can be designed in one piece and integrated into the front wall 9 . However, it can also be provided, as is the case, for example, in 3 it is shown that the bottom wall 13 is a separate component and is in particular designed like a plate. It can then be inserted accordingly into the device component and, for example, glued in place in this context. As a result, an intermediate space 19, which is filled with a thermally insulating material, in particular an insulating foam, is also covered from above.

According to the invention, it is provided that the bottom wall 13 is designed as a separate insert. Provision can be made for the bottom wall 13 to be arranged on the device component and thus on the drawer 7 so that it can be detached in a non-destructive manner. As a result, the bottom wall 13 can be exchanged individually. A wide variety of bottom walls 13 can thus be used, which then enable an individual visual appearance with regard to their coloring and/or with regard to their structuring.

In a particularly advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the handle 10 itself has an electronic operating and/or display unit 20 . According to the invention, this electronic control and/or display unit 20 is formed in the base wall 13 . As a result, information can be presented via the bottom wall 13 and displayed optically. In this context, the operating unit can have at least one touch-sensitive operating element. The display unit can be a TFT display, for example.

The bottom wall 13 is preferably made of glass.

In 4 is a further perspective view of a detail of the household appliance 1 according to 1 shown. In contrast to the representation in 1 Here the bottom wall 13 is designed differently and has a different structure and/or different coloring. The bottom wall 13 can be designed here in particular as an insert that can be detached without destroying it and can thus be removed and reinserted in a reversible manner. Metallic appearances or an appearance as a wood look can therefore also be presented here. However, these are only examples that are not to be understood as exhaustive.

In figure 5 a further example is shown in a perspective representation, in which the front wall 9 of the drawer 7 is shown. The front wall 9 here comprises a base body 21 on the upper side of which a cover in the form of a strip part is arranged as the base part 22 . This base part 22 is designed in one piece and the recessed grip 11 is integrated into it. This strip part represents an upper end strip.

In 6 is a perspective sectional view of the embodiment according to figure 5 shown. It can be seen here that this base part 22 has the front wall 12 integrated. The boundary walls 14 and 15 are also formed in one piece therewith. In addition, this base part 22 includes an integrated storage compartment 23 in which an electronic unit 24 is arranged, which is part of the electronic operating and/or display unit 20 .

Also integrated in the base part 22 is a receiving bed 25 which is designed to receive the bottom wall 13 designed as an insert. In 6 this depositor is already arranged in its final assembled position.

In 7 the base part 22 is shown in a perspective view. The accommodation bed 25 is oriented at an angle and is thus designed in an arrangement with respect to the front wall 12 which is already provided for the position of the bottom wall 13, which is then plate-like and designed as an insert.

In 8 is shown in a perspective sectional view, the base part 22 with the bottom wall 13 used.

In 9 is the representation in 8 shown in a different perspective, namely viewed from below. It can be seen here that the base part 22 has at least one resilient tongue 26 in one piece. This is arranged in a pocket 27 .

For further function of the receiving bed 25 and the resilient tongue 26 is on subsequent Figures 10 to 12 referred.

In 10 the base part 22 is shown in a sectional view, the bottom wall 13 being shown here in a first assembly step. The receiving bed 25 can be seen here, which has a sloping bottom side 28 . The accommodation bed 25 also includes an undercut 30 in a first longitudinal side 29 oriented in the width direction. This first longitudinal side 29 faces away from the front wall 12 and, with regard to the inclined position of the accommodation bed 25, represents the upper longitudinal side viewed in the height direction and the rear longitudinal side viewed in the depth direction .

The already mentioned at least one resilient tongue 26 is arranged in the pocket 27 on a second longitudinal side 31 opposite this first longitudinal side 29 and facing the front wall 12 . The pocket 27 has an insertion slot 32 on the side facing the first longitudinal side 29 , through which the bottom wall 13 can be inserted in order to be able to contact the resilient tongue 26 .

As can be seen, the bottom wall 13 has a first longitudinal edge 33 which is inclined relative to a front side 34 . This inclined position is adapted to the shape of the undercut 30 so that this first longitudinal edge 33 can dip into the undercut 30 with a relatively precise fit.

During assembly, according to the illustration in 10 the bottom wall 13 is first inserted into the slot 32, as a result of which the resilient tongue 26 contacts a second longitudinal edge 35 and as the bottom wall 13 is pushed in further, this resilient tongue 26 is bent back and is correspondingly pretensioned.

According to the illustration in 11 this takes place until the first longitudinal edge 33 can be pressed into the undercut 30 . This first longitudinal edge 33 is then pressed as far as possible into the undercut 30 by the prestressed resilient tongue 26 until the assembled end position is reached, which is 12 is shown. In this mounted end position, the resilient tongue 26 is still prestressed and is therefore opposite to the 10 basic position shown in the direction of the front wall 12 deflected. As a result, the bottom wall 13 is pressed in the direction of the undercut 30 and the bottom wall 13 is securely held in the receiving bed 25 .
