Definitions

  • the invention relates to a household refrigeration device with a body and a closure element movably arranged thereon between a closed position and an open position for closing a storage space located in the body and with a line attached to both the body and the closure element, and with a line housing in which in the closed position of the closure element at least one line section is arranged.
  • Such a household appliance device can in particular be part of a refrigeration device.
  • the closure element can have an operating unit and / or display unit for controlling functions and displaying operating states of the refrigeration device. It is also conceivable that the closure element has an ice dispenser and / or a water dispenser. In such cases it is necessary to lead an electrical line and / or a water line from the body into the closure element.
  • US 2011/005264 A1 discloses a refrigeration device with a pull-out with a chain unit which are coupled to one another in order to allow rotation, the pull-out and the chain unit providing a cable chain to cover a line.
  • US 2014/319990 A1 discloses a device with a receptacle and a first closure element for closing at least one area of an access opening of the receptacle and with a second closure element which is formed relative to the first closure element and which is coupled to an operating unit, wherein a line is led through the first closure element into the second closure element.
  • U.S. 3,788,094 A discloses a refrigeration device with a cold water usage area on an outer area of a door, comprising a water line which leads from a cold water tank within a body to a dispensing valve in the cold water usage area, a retraction mechanism for the water line being attached to a side wall of the body.
  • DE 693 23 392 T2 discloses a cooling device comprising a housing and a door and a compartment mounted under the housing and a device which forms a guide tunnel for a pipeline.
  • the present invention is based on the object of providing a household appliance device mentioned at the outset which enables the line to be guided reliably and for a long time between the body and the closure element.
  • the line housing thus serves as a receiving space for part of the line section which is not required when the closure element is closed, but is required when the closure element is open so that the line is guided from the body to the closure element without (elastic) stretching of the line.
  • the line can be at least partially pulled out of the line housing when the closure element is opened, preferably exclusively by the opening movement of the closure element itself.
  • the extracted section of the line section can be moved back into the line housing, likewise preferably exclusively by the movement of the closure element itself .
  • the closure element can be formed by a door, a flap or a drawer front. In the open position, an inner area of the body, in particular the storage space for items to be cooled or frozen, is partially or completely accessible to a user, depending on the opening angle.
  • the closure element can have an inner wall facing the body in the closed position and an outer wall facing away from the body. The inner wall and the outer wall can delimit a cavity filled with thermal insulation material.
  • the line can be formed, for example, by an electrical line, a data line or a water line. It is also possible for the line to include both one or more electrical line (s) and / or data lines and / or one or more water line (s) within an outer jacket.
  • the line housing is arranged on an outer wall of the body or of the closure element.
  • the line housing can be arranged in a non-destructive detachable manner, for example by means of a force-fit and / or form-fit connection. In particular, latching and / or screwing is possible.
  • the closure element is a door
  • this embodiment allows a simple and inexpensive door hinge change by first having the cable housing done by a fitter can be dismantled and then mounted in another position on the body or door. It is conceivable that the line housing is arranged on a cover element of the body.
  • the line housing is at least partially, preferably completely, arranged within the body or the closure element.
  • this enables a relatively large cable housing to be integrated into the household appliance device, so that the cable can be guided in large radii within the gold cable. This minimizes the risk of a line break.
  • the line housing can be positioned in such a way that the line can be guided in the transition area between the body and the closure element without small radii as possible.
  • the line housing can be arranged in a space between an outer wall and an inner wall of the body or of the closure element. A wall or a wall section of the line housing can delimit a cavity filled with thermal insulation material.
  • the line housing is arranged on the body or within the body and has a line through-opening that is open to the front.
  • the line passage opening faces a rear wall of the closure element, in particular in the closed position of the closure element.
  • the rear wall represents a wall facing the body, which in particular partially delimits the storage space in the closed position of the closure element.
  • the line can exit forward unhindered through the line passage opening when opened and enter the line housing again when closed. Since the line passage opening is open to the front, the line can be pulled out sufficiently and without increased force when the closure element is opened, in particular when the closure element executes not only a rotary but also a translational movement.
  • the line passage opening can be formed in a cover of the line housing or at least partially delimited by a cover of the line housing.
  • the line housing is arranged on the body or within the body and that the line housing is arranged essentially flush with a front surface of the body.
  • the cable housing thus does not protrude forward over the body. This not only enables a compact arrangement of the line housing within the household appliance device. Rather, it is also possible to guide the line into the closure element, which allows relatively large radii of the line.
  • two cable housings are arranged on the body or within the body, preferably in the width direction on two opposite end sections of the body. Only one of the two line housings can have the line section according to the invention. The other line housing serves to accommodate the line section when the door hinge is changed. One of the two line housings can be completely closed by a cover.
  • the line housing is arranged, preferably centrally in the width direction, in an upper or lower end section of the closure element. If the line housing is arranged in an upper end section, the line housing preferably has a line passage opening that is open upward in the vertical direction. If the cable housing is arranged in a lower end section, the cable housing preferably has a cable passage opening that is open downward in the vertical direction.
  • a line housing arranged centrally in the closure element enables a door stop change in a particularly simple manner. In particular, it can be provided that the household appliance device has only a single cable housing.
  • the body and the closure element can be connected to one another by one or more bearing elements, for example hinges or pull-out rails (telescopic rails).
  • the bearing element or elements enable the closure element to be adjusted between the closed position and the open position.
  • the body and the closure element can in particular be connected to one another by means of one, two or more multi-joint hinges.
  • a multi-joint hinge is characterized by the fact that it can rotate as well as also allows a translational movement between the body and the closure element.
  • the line housing is arranged in the vicinity of a bearing element.
  • a close range is to be understood here as meaning that the smallest possible distance between the cable housing and the bearing element is less than 10 cm, preferably less than 5 cm, more preferably less than 3 cm, preferably less than 1 cm.
  • a line passage opening of the line housing is arranged in the vicinity of a bearing element.
  • this enables relatively inconspicuous guidance of the line between the body and the closure element in a simple manner.
  • the line can be supported indirectly and / or directly by the bearing element.
  • a surface of the bearing element can serve as a support surface. A relative movement between the support surface of the bearing element and the section of the line that has fallen thereon is conceivable.
  • the household appliance device has a line return device for returning the line section into the line housing when the closure element is closed.
  • the line return device can in particular comprise a spring element.
  • the spring element can have a greater prestress in the open position of the closure element than in the closed position of the closure element.
  • the spring element can in particular be formed by a component separate from the line.
  • the spring element can be formed, for example, by a helical spring.
  • the closure element has a fastening means for a, in particular plate-shaped, decorative element and a cover element for partially or completely covering the fastening means and that the cover element has a holding element and / or a guide element for holding and / or guiding the line.
  • the holding element can in particular be designed to ensure a non-positive and / or positive holding of the line.
  • a holding element can, for example, by two opposing Locking lugs be formed, the line being clipped between the locking lugs.
  • a retaining element can also be formed by a groove that receives the line essentially without play.
  • a guide element can be formed by a groove that essentially takes up the line with play.
  • a guide element can also be formed by a guide surface contacting the line.
  • the guide surface can be flat or curved; in particular, a curvature of the guide surface can predetermine a minimum bending radius of the line.
  • Several holding elements and / or guide elements can be provided on the cover element. It is conceivable that the holding element or elements or guide elements are formed in one piece with the cover element.
  • the cover element can consist of plastic.
  • the household appliance device comprises a bearing element, in particular a hinge or a pull-out rail, as well as a holding element and / or guide element arranged on the bearing element for holding and / or guiding the line.
  • the holding element or guide element can basically be designed to be functionally identical, in particular structurally identical, to the holding element or guide element arranged on the cover.
  • the holding element or the guide element is a separate component with respect to the bearing element.
  • the holding element or guide element can consist of plastic or metal.
  • the line is fastened to the body and / or to the closure element by means of a, in particular detachable, plug connection.
  • a plug connection for attaching the cable. This plug connection is thus protected against external influences.
  • At least one movable section of the line which moves relative to the body and / or the closure element when the closure element is opened or closed, has an additional casing.
  • the additional sheathing reduces the likelihood of damage to the line due to frequent opening and closing of the Closure element.
  • the line is protected from damage caused by direct intervention by a user.

  • the line it is also conceivable for the line to have an additional sheathing along its entire length.
  • the additional sheathing specifies a minimum bending radius for the line.
  • the additional cladding thus prevents the line from assuming a smaller bending radius than the minimum bending radius defined by the additional cladding.
  • the additional sheathing can have several or a multiplicity of chain links.
  • the additional sheathing is preferably fastened exclusively to the line and / or arranged in a stationary manner relative to a section of the line.
  • the household appliance device has a decorative element attached to the closure element.
  • the decorative element is preferably designed in a plate shape.
  • the decorative element is formed by a furniture panel.
  • the decorative element protrudes in a height direction (i.e. vertically) and / or in a width direction (i.e. horizontally) over end sections of the closure element and covers the cable housing forwards at least in the closed position of the closure element. In this case, the cable housing is not visible to a user standing in front of the household appliance device.

It is conceivable that either the base element and / or the cover element is formed by a wall of the body or of the closure element, e.g. a cover element of the body. However, it is also conceivable that both the base element and the cover element are separate components with respect to the wall of the body and the closure element. It is conceivable that the base element and / or the cover element are formed in one piece with an electronics housing. A division of the line housing into a base element and a cover element enables easier (initial) assembly of the line or a plug element for the line, since the accessibility, in particular to a rear section of the line housing, is improved.
  • a single line housing in which there is a line section - at least in the closed position of the closure element - is basically sufficient.
