It is provided for that a deflecting wall (6) is formed at its side facing a back wall (3) with at least one rib (12) extending approximately in vertical direction of a receptacle, wherein said at least one rib (12) is in direct contact with a back wall (3), thus, creating between the back wall (3) and the deflecting wall (6) a plurality of approximately vertically extending channels (7, 7') for air circulation.
Description
- The present invention refers to a household apparatus, particularly to a cooling apparatus comprising a cooling space with at least an upper compartment, an least a lower compartment, and with a compartment for preparing cooling air, wherein said cooling space can be closed by at least one door, and at least one circulating means to force air circulation in said cooling space.
- A cooling apparatus may comprise two or more cooling compartments cooled by at least one heat exchanger. The heat exchanger(s) can not be switched-on separately in order to affect the cooling power in each cooling compartment. The cooling power my, however, be affected by changing the operating time of a compressor or the frequency of a compressor, by operating a circulating means to force cooling air circulation and by the rotational frequency thereof. Optionally, said cooling compartments arranged above each other can be separated by a cell, a partition wall, a shelf or similar.
- Depending on the height of the cooling apparatus, said cooling compartments are intended to store food products at different temperatures, wherein a higher temperature is provided in the upper compartment comparing to the temperature in the lower compartment, for example. The cooling air preparation region can be a separate space with a cold heat exchanger connected with the upper and the lower cooling compartment via entering and exiting apertures. Air flow through the cooling air preparation region is ensured by a natural convection and/or by using said circulating means that can be switched on and/or off depending on the current cooling demand.
- In a cooling apparatus, when operating normally, a temperature gradient is built in the height of the apparatus. The temperature at the bottom is lower that the temperature at the top of the apparatus. Said temperature gradient is larger when said circulating means is inactive, and is smaller when said circulating means is active. Operation of said circulating means accelerates the air circulation, hence, enabling temperature homogenization in the cooling apparatus.

- A cooling apparatus according to the invention comprises
side walls back wall 3, atop wall 4 and abottom wall 5 building a cooling space and, respectively, a receptacle to receive goods to be stored. Said receptacle can be closed by a door not shown in the drawings. Optionally, inside said back wall is arranged an evaporator. Spaced from theback wall 3 and in direction towards the interior of said receptacle is arranged at least onedeflecting wall 6 extending at least partially in the height of the receptacle. In this manner, at least onechannel 7, 7' is formed between theback wall 3 and thedeflecting wall 6 for circulating air in the cooling apparatus. Said air circulation in the cooling apparatus is provided either by a natural air flow or forced by a circulating means 8' arranged either in the deflectingwall 6 or at any other suitable place in said receptacle of the cooling apparatus. Said circulating means 8' is selected as a blower, for instance. - The cooling apparatus according to the present invention further comprises at least one
partition wall 10 extending approximately horizontally, by means of which said receptacle of the cooling apparatus is divided to afirst cooling region 11 and a second cooling region 11'. In the present embodiment saidfirst cooling region 11 having a higher temperature regime is provided in the upper section of the cooling apparatus, and said second cooling region 11' having a lower temperature regime is provided in the lower section of the cooling apparatus. - Said deflecting
wall 6 is formed as a flat structure the height thereof preferably equals the width of said receptacle. The height of said deflectingwall 6 can be approximately equal to or smaller than the height of said receptacle. When the height of thedeflecting wall 6 approximately equals the height of said receptacle, a cut-out 8 for accommodating the circulating means 8' is provided in the region of either the upper end and/or the lower end of thedeflecting wall 6, and in the region of the lower end or the upper end of the deflectingwall 6 there is provided at least one aperture and, respectively, aslot 9 for entering and, respectively, exiting the circulation air. When the height of thedeflecting wall 6 is smaller than the height of said receptacle, there is the circulating means 8' provided in the region of either the upper end and/or the lower end of thedeflecting wall 6, whereas the entrance and, respectively, the exit for the circulation air is enabled through at least one aperture and, respectively, a slot 9' which is provided in the region below saidpartition wall 10, and hence in said second cooling region 11', between at least one end of the deflectingwall 6 and saidtop wall 4 and/or saidbottom wall 5 and, respectively, saidpartition wall 10. - As mentioned above, the
deflecting wall 6 is formed as a vertically aligned flat structure that is essentially smooth at its side facing said receptacle, whereas it is formed at the side facing theback wall 3 with at least onerib 12 extending approximately in vertical direction of said receptacle. Saidrib 12 extends from the area of the edge of thedeflecting wall 6 being close to thetop wall 4 over at least part of thedeflecting wall 6 in the direction towards the opposite edge thereof. With the present embodiment of the cooling apparatus, thedeflecting wall 6 comprises at its side facing theback wall 3 tworibs 12 which extends approximately in vertical direction transversally spaced form each vertical edge region of thedeflecting wall 6. When said deflectingwall 6 installed said rib/ribs 12 is/are in direct contact with theback wall 3. In this manner, a plurality of approximately vertically extendingchannels 7, 7' is created between theback wall 3 and thedeflecting wall 6, thus, enabling air circulation through said receptacle. Moreover, it is provided according to the invention that thechannels 7, 7' are in fluid communication with each other. - It is provided for according to the present invention, that one of
said channels 7, 7' comprises a substantially larger cross-section for flowing cool air than the rest of the channels. In the present embodiment, thechannel 7 arranged approximately in the central region of theback wall 3 and respectively, the evaporator placed therein, is selected as a region having larger cross-section where the cool air is prepared. Said evaporator preferably extends only inside saidwide channel 7. Furthermore, thechannels 7, 7' are created by theribs 12, wherein theribs 12 does not extend over the entire length of thedeflecting wall 6 but over the part of its length only. In this manner, said fluid communication is created between thewide channel 7 and the channel 7' having smaller cross-section. Said circulating means 8' is arranged in the cut-out 8 provided in the region of thetop wall 4. The circulating means 8' draws a relatively warm air A from theupper region 11 and forces it into saidwide channel 7 where if cools down at said evaporator. The air stream B cooled in said manner travels downwards thewide channel 7 and splitting into two parts. A first part C of the cooled air stream is redirected via the channel 7' having smaller cross-section along thedeflecting wall 6 upwards and through said aperture and, respectively, theslot 9 back into theupper cooling region 11. A second part D of the cooled air stream travels along thedeflecting wall 6 and further over saidpartition wall 10 downwards through the aperture and, respectively, the slot 9' into the lower cooling region 11'. Said second part D of the air stream warms up when passing goods stored in the lower cooling region 11', and returns along thebottom wall 5 and the door of the cooling apparatus as a relatively warm air stream A into theupper cooling region 11. Thus, a uniform temperature distribution in the height of theupper cooling region 11 is obtained, wherein with the present embodiment, the lower cooling region 11' has always lower temperature than theupper cooling region 11. When the circulating means 8' is active, the temperature difference between theupper cooling region 11 and the lower cooling region 11' typically amounts to approximately 1 °C to 3 °C. - With the first embodiment of the cooling apparatus according to the invention, two various modes of operation exists. The first mode is represented by the above described example with the active circulating means 8', whereas the second mode is represented by the inactive circulating means 8'. With the latter, movement of the air stream is provided by means of the natural draught (stack effect) and gravitation. The air stream velocity is substantially lower compared to the first mode. The majority of the cooled air travels through the aperture and, respectively, the slot 9' into the lower cooling region 11', whereas the minority of the cooled air returns via the channel 7' into the
upper cooling region 11. In the lower cooling region 11' the air warms up when passing goods and returns along the door of the cooling apparatus as a relatively warm air into theupper cooling region 11. In this case, the temperature difference between theupper cooling region 11 and the lower cooling region 11' typically amounts to 5 °C to 8 °C. - It is provided for with the second embodiment of the invention that the circulating means 8' is arranged in the
slot 8 formed in the deflectingwall 6 in the area of thepartition wall 10. Two modes of operation are possible, the first providing the circulating means 8' to be active, whereas the second mode provides the circulating means 8' to be inactive. With said second embodiment, said cut-out 8 is formed in one of theribs 12, thus, creating said fluid communication between saidwide channel 7 having large cross-section and one of the channels 7' having small cross-section. The active circulating means 8' draws a relatively warm air E from theupper region 11 through saidwide channel 7, wherein it cools down at said evaporator. The air stream F cooled down in said manner travels via thewide channel 7 downwards, and splits into two parts. The first part G of the cooled air stream is drawn by the circulating means 8' from thewide channel 7 and is redirected via the channel 7' having a small cross-section along the deflectingwall 6 upwards and through said aperture and, respectively, theslot 9 back into theupper cooling region 11. The second part H of the cooled air stream travels due to inertia along the deflectingwall 6 and over saidpartition wall 10 further downwards through the aperture and, respectively, the slot 9' into the lower cooling region 11'. Said second part H of the air stream warms up when passing the goods stored in the lower cooling region 11' and returns along thebottom wall 5 and the door of the cooling apparatus as a relatively warm air stream E into theupper cooling region 11. With the described second embodiment of the invention, the lower cooling region 11' is warmer to some extent that theupper cooling region 11. The temperature difference between theupper cooling region 11 and the lower cooling region 11' typically amounts to approximately 1 °C to 3 °C. - As mentioned above, it is provided according to the second mode of operation that the circulating means 8' is inactive. In such a case, the air stream over the cooling apparatus is forced by means of the natural draught and gravitation. The essential difference between the two modes of operation lies in the velocity of the air streams with the second mode of operation being substantially lower than the velocity with the first mode of operation. With the second mode of operation the lower cooling region 11' is cooler to some extent than the
upper cooling region 11. The temperature difference between theupper cooling region 11 and the lower cooling region 11' typically amounts to approximately 5 °C to 8 °C.
