Definitions
- the invention relates to a household appliance with a body and a receiving space located in the body and delimited at least in sections by a wall element and with a holding part which is arranged on a side of the wall element facing away from the receiving space and which is coupled to an adjustment contour formed on the wall element and extends over the adjustment contour in a plane encompassing the wall element.
- Such a household appliance can be, for example, a refrigerator, a cooking appliance or a dishwasher. If the household appliance is a refrigerating appliance, it can be a refrigerator, a freezer or a fridge-freezer combination.
- built-in parts that are located within the receiving space are often fastened to the holding part that is located outside of the receiving space.
- the holding part enables a more stable attachment of the built-in part.
- a refrigerating appliance according to the preamble of appended claim 1, having an outer casing and an inner container, wherein a reinforcing member between the outer casing and the inner container is fixed to the inner container and wherein a support member arranged inside the inner container is fixed to the reinforcing member.
- a refrigeration device comprising a body with an evaporator which is fixed in the body and with a reinforcement plate which is arranged on an outer surface of an inner housing.
- the object of the present invention is to improve a household appliance mentioned at the outset.
- the adjustment contour has a projection which faces away from the receiving space and is elongate in the plane comprising the wall element. Because the projection is "elongated", it has at least one longitudinal extension that is greater than its other extensions (e.g., width extension and height extension).
- the projection faces away from the receiving space, it is possible to design the adjustment contour in such a way that it does not represent a spatial restriction of the receiving space.
- the available volume of the accommodation space is not reduced and the accessibility of the accommodation space, for example for the introduction of shelves, pull-out devices, storage shells, etc., is not impaired.
- the present invention is based on the finding that the elongate design of the projection enables precise positioning of the holding part in a reliable manner.
- the desired end position of the holding part can be achieved in a simple assembly step. Due to the resulting precise positioning of the holding part, it is in turn possible to arrange a built-in part to be fastened to the holding part precisely with regard to its position and, above all, its orientation in the receiving space.
- a built-in part, such as a pull-out arrangement, which is to be received in the receiving space and fastened to the holding part, can be held securely and reliably as a result.
- the wall element delimits the receiving space "at least in sections” means in particular that the receiving space can also be delimited by further wall elements.
- the wall element according to the invention can represent a side wall and the receiving space can also be delimited by a floor, a ceiling and a rear wall.
- the receiving space is typically arranged in a body of the household appliance and can be closed or accessed by a closure element, for example a door, drawer or flap.
- the body typically has an outer wall.
- a cavity filled with thermal insulation material can be formed between the wall element according to the invention (and the possible further wall elements which delimit the receiving space) and the outer wall.
- the adjustment contour may include one or more other elements in addition to the projection. It is conceivable, for example, that the adjustment contour also has a projection facing the receiving space. According to one embodiment, however, it is provided that the adjustment contour is formed by the projection which faces away from the receiving space and is elongate in a plane encompassing the wall element. In this case, the adjustment contour is finally formed by the projection, i.e. it does not include any further elements.
- the projection in principle, it is possible for the projection to be solid. In this case, the projection represents an accumulation of material of the wall element.
- a depression facing the receiving space is formed by the projection. Provision is preferably made for the size and/or the shape, in particular the spatial orientation, of the depression to essentially correspond to that of the projection.
- the projection essentially has a constant wall thickness, in particular a wall thickness which essentially corresponds to the wall thickness of the wall element.
- the adjustment contour can be formed by a component that is designed separately from the wall element.
- “separately designed component” means that the respective elements or components, in this case the adjustment contour and the wall element, are formed by components that are produced separately from one another and that may be connected to one another in a form-fitting, force-fitting and/or cohesive manner are.
- the adjustment contour is formed in one piece with the wall element.
- “in one piece” is to be understood as meaning that the two elements or Components (adjustment contour and wall element here) are made integrally, in particular from one material, in one production step.
- the adjustment contour can be formed during the production or shaping of the wall element. It is conceivable that the wall element, including the adjustment contour, is produced by thermoforming and/or from plastic.
- a longitudinal extension of the projection is arranged horizontally. This makes it possible for bearing surfaces formed on the projection and arranged horizontally, which interact with supporting surfaces of the holding part, to have a maximum extent. A support of weight forces acting on the holding part can be optimized.
- the adjustment contour can be designed in the form of ribs.
- the adjustment contour can be formed entirely by a rib.
- the adjustment contour may also have other elements.
- the adjustment contour has at least one rib-shaped section.
- the rib-shaped section is, in particular, elongate and has a longitudinal extent that runs parallel to the longitudinal extent of the adjustment contour. It is conceivable that the longitudinal extent of the rib-shaped section is at least 50%, at least 70% or at least 80% of the longitudinal extent of the adjustment contour.
- the rib-shaped section can have a constant cross-section along its length.
- enlargement sections are formed on the end sections of the rib-shaped section.
- the enlargement sections are part of the adjustment contour.
- a height of the enlarged section measured starting from a surface of the wall element facing away from the receiving space, is greater than a correspondingly measured height of the rib-shaped section.
- the projection thus extends further away from the receiving space in the area of the enlargement section.
- a width of the enlargement section measured perpendicularly to the longitudinal extension of the adjustment contour, is greater than one correspondingly measured width of the rib-shaped section.
- the holding part can consist of two or more components that are designed separately from one another. According to one embodiment, however, it is provided that the holding part is designed in one piece.
- the holding part can be formed by a metal part, in particular it can be a stamped and bent part.
- the holding part can be designed with thin walls. In particular, it is conceivable that the holding part has a substantially constant wall thickness.
- the holding part is elongate.
- the longitudinal extension of the holding part preferably corresponds to at least twice the value, at least four times the value or at least five times the value of the remaining extensions of the holding part.
- the holding part can be formed by a rail.
- the longitudinal extent of the holding part can be greater than the longitudinal extent of the adjustment contour.
- the longitudinal extent of the holding part can be at least 1.5 times, twice, or 3 times the longitudinal extent of the adjustment contour.
- the holding part can cover the adjustment contour on both sides along a direction running along the longitudinal extent of the adjustment contour.
- the holding part can cover the adjustment contour on both sides along a direction running perpendicularly to the longitudinal extent of the adjustment contour.
- the holding part and the adjustment contour can run parallel.
- the holding part has a coupling section, by means of which the holding part is coupled to the adjustment contour in a positive and/or non-positive manner. It is possible for forces acting on the holding part (in particular weight forces) to be derived exclusively, essentially exclusively or at least partially via the coupling section onto the wall element.
- the coupling section has at least one bridge element and/or at least one opening.
- the bridge element can in particular be elongate.
- a breakthrough can in particular follow at an end section of the bridge element.
- the bridge element can be formed in terms of its shape complementary to the projection or at least to a portion of the projection.
- the bridge element can be designed to complement the rib-shaped section.
- the holding part is elongate and the coupling section only extends over a partial section of a longitudinal extension of the holding part.
- the coupling section can be arranged centrally with respect to the longitudinal extent of the holding part, which simplifies the assembly of the holding part on the adjustment contour.
- the coupling section in order to reliably and correctly position elements of the holding part that are arranged asymmetrically with respect to the longitudinal extent (e.g. fastening sections for a component), provision can be made for the coupling section to be arranged eccentrically with respect to the longitudinal extent of the holding part.
- the off-center arrangement of the coupling section means that positions for possible fastening sections on the holding part can be selected more freely.
- the holding part is of elongate design and has at least two fastening sections which are spaced apart from one another along its longitudinal extension and to which a built-in part arranged in the receiving space is fastened.
- the built-in part can be attached to the at least two attachment sections by means of two adapter parts.
- the built-in part is designed in one piece and is attached directly to the at least two attachment sections.
- the at least two fastening sections can be formed by a projection of the holding part.
- the two fastening sections can be designed like a dome.
- the two fastening sections can be formed by an embossed structure. In this way, the mechanical stability of the fastening sections can be increased.
- the fastening sections can each have a screw hole for fastening the built-in part by means of a screw.
- the screw hole can be formed in particular in a cylindrical extension, so that a sufficient number of threads can be implemented despite a small wall thickness of the holding part.
- the fastening sections can be formed separately from the coupling element in order to enable an optimal position for fastening the built-in part.
- the coupling section is arranged between the at least two fastening sections with respect to the longitudinal extension of the holding part.
- the wall element has at least two openings and each fastening section is accessible through an opening starting from the receiving space. It is preferably provided that the openings are formed separately from one another and are arranged at a distance from one another, in particular that each opening is formed with a closed edge. The openings can be formed separately from the adjustment contour and arranged at a distance from it. If a fastening section is formed by a projection, it can be provided that the fastening section engages in the opening at least in sections. The fastening section can thus be positioned closer to the accommodation space, as a result of which the assembly of a built-in part is simplified.
- a surface of the fastening section facing the receiving space is flat and/or at least partially or completely flush with a surface of the wall element surrounding or enclosing the opening.
- the fastening section does not protrude into the receiving space beyond a surface of the wall element that surrounds the opening and faces the receiving space.

- the holding part is elongate and arranged horizontally and that a built-in part arranged in the receiving space and fastened to the holding part is or represents a component of a pull-out device.
- a closure element for example a drawer front
- a high-quality external appearance can thus be achieved in a simple manner according to the invention will be realized. Because possible gaps between the drawer front and other locking elements have the desired dimensions reliably and precisely.
- the projection is designed to be closed or has a closed bottom.
- the projection has no opening.
- the projection has one, two or more openings. In this way, an additional connection between the wall element and the holding part and/or the holding part and an additional fixing element can be made possible.
- the holding part and the wall element are screwed together, preferably in the area of the adjustment contour.
- the adjustment contour has a depression facing the receiving space, in which there is a fixing element which is coupled to the holding part is.
- One, two or more openings can be formed in the projection for the coupling between the fixing element and the holding part.
- the coupling can take place in a form-fitting and/or force-fitting and/or material-to-material manner.
- the fixing element can be latched to the holding part.
- the fixing element can be screwed to the holding part.
- the fixing element can be designed in one piece.
- the fixing element can be made of metal or plastic.
- the fixing element can be a plastic injection molded component.
- the fixing element can completely, partially or essentially completely fill the depression.
- a surface of the fixing element facing the receiving space terminates flush with a surface of the wall element surrounding or enclosing the recess or in relation to this surface is recessed. In this way, the fixing element does not interfere with built-in parts to be arranged in the receiving space.
- the fixing element can be supported by means of a support surface on a bearing surface of the depression. In this way, forces acting on the holding part (in particular weight forces in the case of a horizontal arrangement of bearing surface and supporting surface) can also be transmitted to the wall element via the fixing element.
- the household appliance also has an adhesive which contacts the holding part and the wall element.
- the adhesive can thus contribute to the attachment of the holding part to the wall element.
- the adhesive is preferably not designed to absorb weight forces acting on the holding part during normal use of the household appliance. Rather, the adhesive can be designed to enable the holding part to be pre-fixed until it is sufficiently fixed, for example by insulating material which is arranged on the surface of the wall element facing away from the receiving space.
- the adhesive can be tape or hot glue.
- the adhesive can also represent a seal between the holding part and the wall element and/or a seal of openings in the wall element.
- the household appliance has at least one additional wall element, which delimits the receiving space at least in sections, and that the household appliance has at least one additional holding part, which is arranged on a side of the additional wall element that faces away from the receiving space and which is equipped with a another wall element trained further adjustment contour is coupled.
- the further adjustment contour has a further projection which faces away from the receiving space and is elongated in a plane comprising the further wall element. All the features or properties described for the wall element, the adjustment contour, and the projection can also be used for the additional wall element, the additional adjustment contour, and the additional projection.
- the wall element and the further wall element with respect to the Form receiving space opposite wall elements (for example, left side wall and right side wall).
- the household appliance can be a refrigerator, a cooking appliance or a dishwasher. If the household appliance is a refrigerating appliance, it can be a refrigerator, a freezer or a fridge-freezer combination.
- the receiving space is formed by a cooling space and the wall element can be part of an inner container made in particular of plastic.
- top, bottom, front, “rear, “horizontal”, “vertical”, “depth direction”, “width direction”, “height direction” etc. are the intended use and intended arranging of the household appliance and at given positions and orientations to an observer then standing in front of the household appliance and looking in the direction of the household appliance.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Haushaltsgerät mit einem Korpus sowie einem sich in dem Korpus befindlichen und durch ein Wandelement zumindest abschnittsweise begrenzten Aufnahmeraum und mit einem Halteteil, welches auf einer dem Aufnahmeraum abgewandten Seite des Wandelements angeordnet ist und welches mit einer an dem Wandelement ausgebildeten Justagekontur gekoppelt ist und sich in einer das Wandelement umfassenden Ebene über die Justagekontur erstreckt.The invention relates to a household appliance with a body and a receiving space located in the body and delimited at least in sections by a wall element and with a holding part which is arranged on a side of the wall element facing away from the receiving space and which is coupled to an adjustment contour formed on the wall element and extends over the adjustment contour in a plane encompassing the wall element.
Ein derartiges Haushaltsgerät kann beispielsweise ein Kältegerät, ein Gargerät oder ein Geschirrspülgerät sein. Sofern das Haushaltsgerät ein Kältegerät ist, kann es sich um einen Kühlschrank, einen Gefrierschrank oder eine Kühl-Gefrier-Kombination handeln. Bei derartigen Haushaltsgeräten werden oftmals Einbauteile, welche sich innerhalb des Aufnahmeraums befinden, an dem sich außerhalb des Aufnahmeraumes befindlichen Halteteil befestigt. Das Halteteil ermöglicht dabei eine stabilere Befestigung des Einbauteils.Such a household appliance can be, for example, a refrigerator, a cooking appliance or a dishwasher. If the household appliance is a refrigerating appliance, it can be a refrigerator, a freezer or a fridge-freezer combination. In household appliances of this type, built-in parts that are located within the receiving space are often fastened to the holding part that is located outside of the receiving space. The holding part enables a more stable attachment of the built-in part.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt darin, ein eingangs genanntes Haushaltsgerät zu verbessern.The object of the present invention is to improve a household appliance mentioned at the outset.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Haushaltsgerät gemäß den Merkmalen des unabhängigen Anspruchs gelöst. Demzufolge ist bei einem gattungsgemäßen Haushaltsgerät vorgesehen, dass die Justagekontur einen dem Aufnahmeraum abgewandten und in der das Wandelement umfassenden Ebene länglich ausgebildeten Vorsprung aufweist. Indem der Vorsprung "länglich" ausgebildet ist, weist dieser zumindest eine Längserstreckung auf, die größer ist als seine übrigen Erstreckungen (zum Beispiel Breitenerstreckung und Höhenerstreckung).This object is achieved by a household appliance according to the features of the independent claim. Accordingly, it is provided in a household appliance of the generic type that the adjustment contour has a projection which faces away from the receiving space and is elongate in the plane comprising the wall element. Because the projection is "elongated", it has at least one longitudinal extension that is greater than its other extensions (e.g., width extension and height extension).
Indem der Vorsprung dem Aufnahmeraum abgewandt ist, ist es möglich, die Justagekontur derart auszubilden, dass diese keine räumliche Beschränkung des Aufnahmeraumes darstellt. Insbesondere wird das zur Verfügung stehende Volumen des Aufnahmeraumes nicht verringert und die Zugänglichkeit des Aufnahmeraumes, zum Beispiel zum Einbringen von Fachböden, Auszugsvorrichtungen, Lagerschalen etc., nicht beeinträchtigt.Since the projection faces away from the receiving space, it is possible to design the adjustment contour in such a way that it does not represent a spatial restriction of the receiving space. In particular, the available volume of the accommodation space is not reduced and the accessibility of the accommodation space, for example for the introduction of shelves, pull-out devices, storage shells, etc., is not impaired.
Die vorliegende Erfindung beruht auf der Erkenntnis, dass durch die längliche Ausbildung des Vorsprungs auf zuverlässige Weise eine präzise Positionierung des Halteteils ermöglicht wird. Durch die Kopplung des Halteteils mit der Justagekontur und insbesondere mit dem Vorsprung kann die gewünschte Endposition des Halteteils durch einen einfachen Montageschritt erfolgen. Durch die sich hieraus ergebende präzise Positionierung des Halteteils ist es wiederum möglich, ein an dem Halteteil zu befestigendes Einbauteil präzise hinsichtlich seiner Position und vor allem seiner Ausrichtung in dem Aufnahmeraum anzuordnen.The present invention is based on the finding that the elongate design of the projection enables precise positioning of the holding part in a reliable manner. By coupling the holding part to the adjustment contour and in particular to the projection, the desired end position of the holding part can be achieved in a simple assembly step. Due to the resulting precise positioning of the holding part, it is in turn possible to arrange a built-in part to be fastened to the holding part precisely with regard to its position and, above all, its orientation in the receiving space.
Darüber hinaus kann durch die längliche Ausbildung des Vorsprungs eine bessere Abstützung des Halteteils erreicht werden. Insbesondere auf das Halteteil einwirkende Gewichtskräfte können zuverlässig aufgenommen werden. Ein in dem Aufnahmeraum aufzunehmendes und an dem Halteteil zu befestigendes Einbauteil, wie zum Beispiel eine Auszugsanordnung, kann dadurch sicher und zuverlässig gehalten werden.In addition, better support of the holding part can be achieved through the elongate design of the projection. In particular, weight forces acting on the holding part can be reliably absorbed. A built-in part, such as a pull-out arrangement, which is to be received in the receiving space and fastened to the holding part, can be held securely and reliably as a result.
Unter der Wendung, dass das Wandelement den Aufnahmeraum "zumindest abschnittsweise" begrenzt, ist insbesondere zu verstehen, dass der Aufnahmeraum auch durch weitere Wandelemente begrenzt werden kann. Beispielsweise kann das erfindungsgemäße Wandelement eine Seitenwand darstellen und der Aufnahmeraum kann weiterhin durch einen Boden, eine Decke und eine Rückwand begrenzt sein.The expression that the wall element delimits the receiving space "at least in sections" means in particular that the receiving space can also be delimited by further wall elements. For example, the wall element according to the invention can represent a side wall and the receiving space can also be delimited by a floor, a ceiling and a rear wall.
Ausführungsformen der vorliegenden Erfindung sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen angegeben.Embodiments of the present invention are given in the dependent claims.
Typischerweise ist der Aufnahmeraum in einem Korpus des Haushaltsgeräts angeordnet und ist durch ein Verschlusselement, zum Beispiel Tür, Schublade oder Klappe, verschließbar bzw. zugänglich. Der Korpus weist typischerweise eine Außenwandung auf. Zwischen dem erfindungsgemäßen Wandelement (und den möglichen weiteren Wandelementen, die den Aufnahmeraum begrenzen) und der Außenwandung kann ein mit thermischen Isolationsmaterial gefüllter Hohlraum gebildet sein.The receiving space is typically arranged in a body of the household appliance and can be closed or accessed by a closure element, for example a door, drawer or flap. The body typically has an outer wall. A cavity filled with thermal insulation material can be formed between the wall element according to the invention (and the possible further wall elements which delimit the receiving space) and the outer wall.
Grundsätzlich möglich ist, dass die Justagekontur zusätzlich zu dem Vorsprung ein oder mehrere weitere Elemente umfasst. Denkbar ist zum Beispiel, dass die Justagekontur auch einen dem Aufnahmeraum zugewandten Vorsprung aufweist. Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist jedoch vorgesehen, dass die Justagekontur durch den dem Aufnahmeraum abgewandten und in einer das Wandelement umfassenden Ebene länglich ausgebildeten Vorsprung gebildet ist. In diesem Fall wird somit die Justagekontur durch den Vorsprung abschließend gebildet, d.h. sie umfasst keine weiteren Elemente.In principle, it is possible for the adjustment contour to include one or more other elements in addition to the projection. It is conceivable, for example, that the adjustment contour also has a projection facing the receiving space. According to one embodiment, however, it is provided that the adjustment contour is formed by the projection which faces away from the receiving space and is elongate in a plane encompassing the wall element. In this case, the adjustment contour is finally formed by the projection, i.e. it does not include any further elements.
Grundsätzlich möglich ist, dass der Vorsprung massiv ausgebildet ist. In diesem Fall stellt der Vorsprung eine Materialanhäufung des Wandelements dar. Um jedoch eine einfache und kostengünstige Fertigung zu ermöglichen, ist gemäß einer Ausführungsform vorgesehen, dass durch den Vorsprung eine dem Aufnahmeraum zugewandte Vertiefung ausgebildet ist. Vorzugsweise ist vorgesehen, dass die Größe und/oder die Form, insbesondere die räumliche Orientierung, der Vertiefung im Wesentlichen der des Vorsprungs entspricht. Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Vorsprung im Wesentlichen eine konstante Wandstärke aufweist, insbesondere eine im Wesentlichen der Wandstärke des Wandelements entsprechende Wandstärke.In principle, it is possible for the projection to be solid. In this case, the projection represents an accumulation of material of the wall element. However, in order to enable simple and cost-effective production, one embodiment provides that a depression facing the receiving space is formed by the projection. Provision is preferably made for the size and/or the shape, in particular the spatial orientation, of the depression to essentially correspond to that of the projection. In particular, it can be provided that the projection essentially has a constant wall thickness, in particular a wall thickness which essentially corresponds to the wall thickness of the wall element.
Die Justagekontur kann durch ein gegenüber dem Wandelement separat ausgebildetes Bauteil gebildet sein. Unter "separat ausgebildetes Bauteil" ist hierbei und im Folgenden zu verstehen, dass die jeweiligen Elemente bzw. Bauteile, in diesem Fall die Justagekontur und das Wandelement, durch separat voneinander hergestellte Bauteile gebildet sind, die gegebenenfalls miteinander formschlüssig, kraftschlüssig und/oder stoffschlüssig verbunden sind. Gemäß einer Ausführung vom ist jedoch vorgesehen, dass die Justagekontur einstückig mit dem Wandelement ausgebildet ist. Unter "einstückig ausgebildet" ist hierbei und im Folgenden zu verstehen, dass die beiden Elemente bzw. Bauteile (hier Justagekontur und Wandelement) integral, insbesondere einstoffig, in einem Fertigungsschritt hergestellt sind. Insbesondere kann die Justagekontur bei der Herstellung bzw. Ausformung des Wandelements ausgebildet werden. Denkbar ist, dass das Wandelement inklusive der Justagekontur durch Thermoformen und/oder aus Kunststoff hergestellt ist.The adjustment contour can be formed by a component that is designed separately from the wall element. Here and in the following, "separately designed component" means that the respective elements or components, in this case the adjustment contour and the wall element, are formed by components that are produced separately from one another and that may be connected to one another in a form-fitting, force-fitting and/or cohesive manner are. However, according to one embodiment, it is provided that the adjustment contour is formed in one piece with the wall element. Here and in the following, "in one piece" is to be understood as meaning that the two elements or Components (adjustment contour and wall element here) are made integrally, in particular from one material, in one production step. In particular, the adjustment contour can be formed during the production or shaping of the wall element. It is conceivable that the wall element, including the adjustment contour, is produced by thermoforming and/or from plastic.
Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass eine Längserstreckung des Vorsprungs horizontal angeordnet ist. Hierdurch wird ermöglicht, dass an dem Vorsprung gebildete und horizontal angeordnete Auflageflächen, welche mit Abstützflächen des Halteteils zusammenwirken, eine maximale Erstreckung aufweisen können. Eine Abstützung von auf das Halteteil einwirkenden Gewichtskräften kann optimiert werden.According to the invention it is provided that a longitudinal extension of the projection is arranged horizontally. This makes it possible for bearing surfaces formed on the projection and arranged horizontally, which interact with supporting surfaces of the holding part, to have a maximum extent. A support of weight forces acting on the holding part can be optimized.
Die Justagekontur kann rippenförmig ausgebildet sein. Insbesondere kann die Justagekontur vollständig durch eine Rippe gebildet sein. Denkbar ist jedoch auch, dass die Justagekontur gegebenenfalls auch weitere Elemente aufweist. Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass die Justagekontur zumindest einen rippenförmigen Abschnitt aufweist. Der rippenförmige Abschnitt ist insbesondere länglich ausgebildet und weist eine Längserstreckung auf, die parallel zu der Längserstreckung der Justagekontur verläuft. Denkbar ist, dass die Längserstreckung des rippenförmigen Abschnitts zumindest 50 %, zumindest 70 % oder zumindest 80 % der Längserstreckung der Justagekontur beträgt. Der rippenförmige Abschnitt kann entlang seiner Längserstreckung einen konstanten Querschnitt aufweisen.The adjustment contour can be designed in the form of ribs. In particular, the adjustment contour can be formed entirely by a rib. However, it is also conceivable that the adjustment contour may also have other elements. According to one embodiment, it is provided that the adjustment contour has at least one rib-shaped section. The rib-shaped section is, in particular, elongate and has a longitudinal extent that runs parallel to the longitudinal extent of the adjustment contour. It is conceivable that the longitudinal extent of the rib-shaped section is at least 50%, at least 70% or at least 80% of the longitudinal extent of the adjustment contour. The rib-shaped section can have a constant cross-section along its length.
Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass an Endabschnitten des rippenförmigen Abschnitts Vergrößerungsabschnitte angeformt sind. Die Vergrößerungsabschnitte sind Teil der Justagekontur.According to one embodiment, enlargement sections are formed on the end sections of the rib-shaped section. The enlargement sections are part of the adjustment contour.
Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass eine ausgehend von einer dem Aufnahmeraum abgewandten Oberfläche des Wandelements gemessene Höhe des Vergrößerungsabschnitts größer ist, als eine entsprechend gemessene Höhe des rippenförmigen Abschnitts. Der Vorsprung erstreckt sich somit im Bereich des Vergrößerungsabschnitts weiter von dem Aufnahmeraum weg. Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass eine senkrecht zur Längserstreckung der Justagekontur gemessene Breite des Vergrößerungsabschnitts größer ist, als eine entsprechend gemessene Breite des rippenförmigen Abschnitts. Derartige Ausbildungen des Vergrößerungsabschnitts ermöglichen nochmals eine bessere Positionierung des Halteteils an der Justagekontur.According to one embodiment, it is provided that a height of the enlarged section, measured starting from a surface of the wall element facing away from the receiving space, is greater than a correspondingly measured height of the rib-shaped section. The projection thus extends further away from the receiving space in the area of the enlargement section. According to one embodiment, it is provided that a width of the enlargement section, measured perpendicularly to the longitudinal extension of the adjustment contour, is greater than one correspondingly measured width of the rib-shaped section. Such configurations of the enlargement section once again enable better positioning of the holding part on the adjustment contour.
Das Halteteil kann aus zwei oder mehreren separat voneinander ausgebildeten Bauteilen bestehen. Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist jedoch vorgesehen, dass das Halteteil einstückig ausgebildet ist. Das Halteteil kann durch ein Metallteil gebildet sein insbesondere kann es sich um ein Stanz-Biege-Teil handeln. Das Halteteil kann dünnwandig ausgebildet sein. Denkbar ist insbesondere, dass das Halteteil eine im Wesentlichen konstante Wandstärke aufweist.The holding part can consist of two or more components that are designed separately from one another. According to one embodiment, however, it is provided that the holding part is designed in one piece. The holding part can be formed by a metal part, in particular it can be a stamped and bent part. The holding part can be designed with thin walls. In particular, it is conceivable that the holding part has a substantially constant wall thickness.
Gemäß der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass das Halteteil länglich ausgebildet ist. Vorzugsweise entspricht die Längserstreckung des Halteteils zumindest dem 2-fachen Wert, zumindest dem 4-fachen Wert oder zumindest dem 5-fachen Wert der übrigen Erstreckungen des Halteteils. Das Halteteil kann durch eine Schiene gebildet sein. Die Längserstreckung des Halteteils kann größer sein als die Längserstreckung der Justagekontur. Insbesondere kann die Längserstreckung des Halteteils wenigstens dem 1,5-fachen, dem 2-fachen, oder dem 3-fachen der Längserstreckung der Justagekontur betragen. Das Halteteil kann die Justagekontur entlang einer die Längserstreckung der Justagekontur verlaufenden Richtung beidseitig überdecken. Das Halteteil kann die Justagekontur entlang einer senkrecht zur Längserstreckung der Justagekontur verlaufenden Richtung beidseitig überdecken. Bezüglich der Längserstreckungen können das Halteteil und die Justagekontur parallel verlaufen.According to the invention it is provided that the holding part is elongate. The longitudinal extension of the holding part preferably corresponds to at least twice the value, at least four times the value or at least five times the value of the remaining extensions of the holding part. The holding part can be formed by a rail. The longitudinal extent of the holding part can be greater than the longitudinal extent of the adjustment contour. In particular, the longitudinal extent of the holding part can be at least 1.5 times, twice, or 3 times the longitudinal extent of the adjustment contour. The holding part can cover the adjustment contour on both sides along a direction running along the longitudinal extent of the adjustment contour. The holding part can cover the adjustment contour on both sides along a direction running perpendicularly to the longitudinal extent of the adjustment contour. With regard to the longitudinal extensions, the holding part and the adjustment contour can run parallel.
Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass das Halteteil einen Koppelabschnitt aufweist, mittels welchem das Halteteil formschlüssig und/oder kraftschlüssig mit der Justagekontur gekoppelt ist. Möglich ist, dass auf das Halteteil einwirkende Kräfte (insbesondere Gewichtskräfte) ausschließlich, im Wesentlichen ausschließlich oder zumindest teilweise über den Koppelabschnitt auf das Wandelement abgeleitet werden.According to one embodiment, it is provided that the holding part has a coupling section, by means of which the holding part is coupled to the adjustment contour in a positive and/or non-positive manner. It is possible for forces acting on the holding part (in particular weight forces) to be derived exclusively, essentially exclusively or at least partially via the coupling section onto the wall element.
Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass der Koppelabschnitt zumindest ein Brückenelement und/oder zumindest einen Durchbruch aufweist. Das Brückenelement kann insbesondere länglich ausgebildet sein. Ein Durchbruch kann sich insbesondere an einem Endabschnitt des Brückenelements anschließen. Das Brückenelement kann bezüglich seiner Form komplementär zu dem Vorsprung oder zumindest zu einem Teilabschnitt des Vorsprungs ausgebildet sein. Insbesondere kann das Brückenelement komplementär zu dem rippenförmigen Abschnitt ausgebildet sein.According to one embodiment it is provided that the coupling section has at least one bridge element and/or at least one opening. The bridge element can in particular be elongate. A breakthrough can in particular follow at an end section of the bridge element. The bridge element can be formed in terms of its shape complementary to the projection or at least to a portion of the projection. In particular, the bridge element can be designed to complement the rib-shaped section.
Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass das Halteteil länglich ausgebildet ist und sich der Koppelabschnitt nur über einen Teilabschnitt einer Längenerstreckung des Halteteils erstreckt. Der Koppelabschnitt kann bezüglich der Längserstreckung des Halteteils mittig angeordnet sein, wodurch die Montage des Halteteils an der Justagekontur vereinfacht wird. Um jedoch insbesondere bezüglich der Längserstreckung asymmetrisch angeordnete Elemente des Halteteils (zum Beispiel Befestigungsabschnitte für ein Bauteil) zuverlässig und fehlerfrei zu positionieren, kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Koppelabschnitt bezüglich der Längserstreckung des Halteteils außermittig angeordnet ist. Durch die außermittige Anordnung des Koppelabschnitts können darüber hinaus Positionen für mögliche Befestigungsabschnitte an dem Halteteil freier gewählt werden.According to one embodiment, it is provided that the holding part is elongate and the coupling section only extends over a partial section of a longitudinal extension of the holding part. The coupling section can be arranged centrally with respect to the longitudinal extent of the holding part, which simplifies the assembly of the holding part on the adjustment contour. However, in order to reliably and correctly position elements of the holding part that are arranged asymmetrically with respect to the longitudinal extent (e.g. fastening sections for a component), provision can be made for the coupling section to be arranged eccentrically with respect to the longitudinal extent of the holding part. In addition, the off-center arrangement of the coupling section means that positions for possible fastening sections on the holding part can be selected more freely.
Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass das Halteteil länglich ausgebildet ist und wenigstens zwei entlang seiner Längserstreckung voneinander beabstandete Befestigungsabschnitte aufweist, an denen ein in dem Aufnahmeraum angeordnetes Einbauteil befestigt ist. Das Einbauteil kann mittels zweier Adapterteile an den wenigstens zwei Befestigungsabschnitten befestigt sein. Insbesondere kann jedoch vorgesehen sein, dass das Einbauteil einstückig ausgebildet ist und direkt an den wenigstens zwei Befestigungsabschnitten befestigt ist. Die wenigstens zwei Befestigungsabschnitte können durch einen Vorsprung des Halteteils gebildet sein. Insbesondere können die zwei Befestigungsabschnitte domartig ausgebildet sein. Die zwei Befestigungsabschnitte können durch eine Prägestruktur gebildet sein. Auf diese Weise kann die mechanische Stabilität der Befestigungsabschnitte erhöht werden. Die Befestigungsabschnitte können jeweils ein Schraubloch zur Befestigung des Einbauteiles mittels einer Schraube aufweisen. Das Schraubloch kann insbesondere in einem Zylinderansatz gebildet sein, sodass trotz einer geringen Wandstärke des Halteteils eine ausreichende Anzahl von Gewindegängen realisierbar ist.According to the invention, it is provided that the holding part is of elongate design and has at least two fastening sections which are spaced apart from one another along its longitudinal extension and to which a built-in part arranged in the receiving space is fastened. The built-in part can be attached to the at least two attachment sections by means of two adapter parts. In particular, however, it can be provided that the built-in part is designed in one piece and is attached directly to the at least two attachment sections. The at least two fastening sections can be formed by a projection of the holding part. In particular, the two fastening sections can be designed like a dome. The two fastening sections can be formed by an embossed structure. In this way, the mechanical stability of the fastening sections can be increased. The fastening sections can each have a screw hole for fastening the built-in part by means of a screw. The screw hole can be formed in particular in a cylindrical extension, so that a sufficient number of threads can be implemented despite a small wall thickness of the holding part.
Die Befestigungsabschnitte können separat von dem Koppelelement ausgebildet sein, um eine optimale Position zur Befestigung des Einbauteiles zu ermöglichen. Insbesondere ist eine überlappungsfreie Anordnung von Koppelelement und Befestigungsabschnitt denkbar (bei einer Projektion des Halteteils auf eine das Wandelement umfassende Ebene). Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass der Koppelabschnitt bezüglich der Längserstreckung des Halteteils zwischen den wenigstens zwei Befestigungsabschnitten angeordnet ist.The fastening sections can be formed separately from the coupling element in order to enable an optimal position for fastening the built-in part. In particular, there is an arrangement of the coupling element and fastening section without overlapping conceivable (when the holding part is projected onto a plane that encompasses the wall element). According to one embodiment, it is provided that the coupling section is arranged between the at least two fastening sections with respect to the longitudinal extension of the holding part.
Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass das Wandelement mindestens zwei Durchbrüche aufweist und jeder Befestigungsabschnitt durch einen Durchbruch ausgehend von dem Aufnahmeraum zugänglich ist. Vorzugsweise ist vorgesehen, dass die Durchbrüche separat voneinander ausgebildet und beabstandet zueinander angeordnet sind, insbesondere dass jeder Durchbruch randgeschlossen ausgebildet ist. Die Durchbrüche können separat zur Justagekontur ausgebildet und beabstandet zu dieser angeordnet sein. Sofern ein Befestigungsabschnitt durch einen Vorsprung gebildet ist, kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Befestigungsabschnitt zumindest abschnittsweise in den Durchbruch eingreift. Der Befestigungsabschnitt kann somit näher zu dem Aufnahmeraum positioniert werden, wodurch die Montage eines Einbauteiles vereinfacht wird. Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass eine dem Aufnahmeraum zugewandte Oberfläche des Befestigungsabschnitts eben ausgebildet ist und/oder zumindest abschnittsweise oder komplett bündig mit einer den Durchbruch umgebenden bzw. einfassenden Oberfläche des Wandelements ausgebildet ist. Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Befestigungsabschnitt nicht über eine den Durchbruch umgebende und dem Aufnahmeraum zugewandte Oberfläche des Wandelements in den Aufnahmeraum ragt. Das Halteteil kann vorzugsweise vollständig außerhalb des Aufnahmeraumes angeordnet sein.According to one embodiment it is provided that the wall element has at least two openings and each fastening section is accessible through an opening starting from the receiving space. It is preferably provided that the openings are formed separately from one another and are arranged at a distance from one another, in particular that each opening is formed with a closed edge. The openings can be formed separately from the adjustment contour and arranged at a distance from it. If a fastening section is formed by a projection, it can be provided that the fastening section engages in the opening at least in sections. The fastening section can thus be positioned closer to the accommodation space, as a result of which the assembly of a built-in part is simplified. In particular, it can be provided that a surface of the fastening section facing the receiving space is flat and/or at least partially or completely flush with a surface of the wall element surrounding or enclosing the opening. In particular, it can be provided that the fastening section does not protrude into the receiving space beyond a surface of the wall element that surrounds the opening and faces the receiving space. The holding part can preferably be arranged completely outside the receiving space.
Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass das Halteteil länglich ausgebildet und waagrecht angeordnet ist und dass ein in dem Aufnahmeraum angeordnetes und an dem Halteteil befestigtes Einbauteil Bestandteil einer Auszugsvorrichtung ist oder eine solche darstellt. Erfindungsgemäß kann somit einerseits eine äußerst präzise Ausrichtung der Auszugsvorrichtung und andererseits eine stabile Befestigung der Auszugsvorrichtung ermöglicht werden. Insbesondere sofern an der Auszugsvorrichtung ein Verschlusselement (zum Beispiel eine Schubladenfront) des Aufnahmeraums angeordnet ist, welches auch im geschlossenen Zustand von einem Benutzer sichtbar ist, kann somit erfindungsgemäß auf einfache Art und Weise ein hochwertiges äußeres Erscheinungsbild realisiert werden. Denn mögliche Spalte zwischen der Schubladenfront und weiteren Verschlusselementen weisen zuverlässig und präzise die gewünschten Maße auf.According to one embodiment, it is provided that the holding part is elongate and arranged horizontally and that a built-in part arranged in the receiving space and fastened to the holding part is or represents a component of a pull-out device. According to the invention, on the one hand an extremely precise alignment of the pull-out device and on the other hand a stable fastening of the pull-out device can be made possible. In particular, if a closure element (for example a drawer front) of the receiving space is arranged on the pull-out device, which is visible to a user even in the closed state, a high-quality external appearance can thus be achieved in a simple manner according to the invention will be realized. Because possible gaps between the drawer front and other locking elements have the desired dimensions reliably and precisely.
Gemäß einer Ausführungsform vorgesehen, dass der Vorsprung geschlossen ausgebildet ist bzw. einen geschlossenen Boden aufweist. Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Vorsprung keinen Durchbruch aufweist. Denkbar ist jedoch auch, dass der Vorsprung einen, zwei oder mehrere Durchbrüche aufweist. Auf diese Weise kann eine zusätzliche Verbindung zwischen dem Wandelement und dem Halteteil und/oder dem Halteteil und einem zusätzlichen Fixierelement ermöglicht werden.According to one embodiment, it is provided that the projection is designed to be closed or has a closed bottom. In particular, it can be provided that the projection has no opening. However, it is also conceivable that the projection has one, two or more openings. In this way, an additional connection between the wall element and the holding part and/or the holding part and an additional fixing element can be made possible.
Gemäß einer Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass das Halteteil und das Wandelement, vorzugsweise im Bereich der Justagekontur, miteinander verschraubt sind.According to one embodiment, it is provided that the holding part and the wall element are screwed together, preferably in the area of the adjustment contour.
Alleine bereits durch die Kopplung des Halteteils mit der Justagekontur können die erfindungsgemäßen Vorteile erzielt werden. Um die Positionierung des Halteteils sowie auch um die Übertragung von auf das Halteteil einwirkenden Gewichtskräften nochmals zu verbessern, kann jedoch gemäß einer Ausführungsform vorgesehen sein, dass die Justagekontur eine dem Aufnahmeraum zugewandte Vertiefung aufweist, in der sich ein Fixierelement befindet, welches mit dem Halteteil gekoppelt ist. Für die Kopplung zwischen dem Fixierelement und dem Halteteil können ein, zwei oder mehrere Durchbrüche in dem Vorsprung ausgebildet sein. Die Kopplung kann formschlüssig und/oder kraftschlüssig und/oder stoffschlüssig erfolgen. Beispielsweise kann das Fixierelement mit dem Halteteil verrastet sein. Um eine sichere und belastbare Kopplung zu gewährleisten, kann das Fixierelement mit dem Halteteil verschraubt sein.The advantages according to the invention can be achieved simply by coupling the holding part to the adjustment contour. However, in order to further improve the positioning of the holding part and the transmission of weight forces acting on the holding part, according to one embodiment it can be provided that the adjustment contour has a depression facing the receiving space, in which there is a fixing element which is coupled to the holding part is. One, two or more openings can be formed in the projection for the coupling between the fixing element and the holding part. The coupling can take place in a form-fitting and/or force-fitting and/or material-to-material manner. For example, the fixing element can be latched to the holding part. In order to ensure a safe and resilient coupling, the fixing element can be screwed to the holding part.
Das Fixierelement kann einstückig ausgebildet sein. Das Fixierelement kann aus Metall oder Kunststoff bestehen. Insbesondere kann das Fixierelement ein Kunststoff-Spritzgussbauteil sein.The fixing element can be designed in one piece. The fixing element can be made of metal or plastic. In particular, the fixing element can be a plastic injection molded component.
Das Fixierelement kann die Vertiefung vollständig, teilweise oder im Wesentlichen vollständig ausfüllen. Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass eine dem Aufnahmeraum zugewandte Oberfläche des Fixierelements bündig mit einer die Vertiefung umgebenden bzw. einfassenden Oberfläche des Wandelements abschließt oder bezüglich dieser Oberfläche zurückversetzt ist. Auf diese Weise ist das Fixierelement bezüglich in dem Aufnahmeraum anzuordnenden Einbauteilen nicht störend.The fixing element can completely, partially or essentially completely fill the depression. In particular, it can be provided that a surface of the fixing element facing the receiving space terminates flush with a surface of the wall element surrounding or enclosing the recess or in relation to this surface is recessed. In this way, the fixing element does not interfere with built-in parts to be arranged in the receiving space.
Das Fixierelement kann sich mittels einer Abstützfläche auf einer Auflagefläche der Vertiefung abstützen. Auf diese Weise können auf das Halteteil einwirkende Kräfte (insbesondere Gewichtskräfte bei einer horizontalen Anordnung von Auflagefläche und Abstützfläche) auch über das Fixierelement auf das Wandelement übertragen werden.The fixing element can be supported by means of a support surface on a bearing surface of the depression. In this way, forces acting on the holding part (in particular weight forces in the case of a horizontal arrangement of bearing surface and supporting surface) can also be transmitted to the wall element via the fixing element.
Gemäß einer Ausführungsform weist das Haushaltsgerät weiterhin ein Klebemittel auf, welches das Halteteil und das Wandelement kontaktiert. Das Klebemittel kann somit zur Befestigung des Halteteils mit dem Wandelement beitragen. Vorzugsweise ist das Klebemittel jedoch nicht dazu ausgebildet, auf das Halteteil einwirkende Gewichtskräfte während einer bestimmungsgemäßen Benutzung des Haushaltsgeräts aufzunehmen. Vielmehr kann das Klebemittel dazu ausgebildet sein, eine Vorfixierung des Halteteil ist zu ermöglichen, bis dieses zum Beispiel durch Isolationsmaterial, welches auf der dem Aufnahmeraum abgewandten Oberfläche des Wandelements angeordnet wird, ausreichend fixiert wird. Bei dem Klebemittel kann es sich um Klebeband oder um Heißkleber handeln. Das Klebemittel kann weiterhin eine Abdichtung zwischen dem Halteteil und dem Wandelement und/oder eine Abdichtung von Durchbrüchen des Wandelements darstellen.According to one embodiment, the household appliance also has an adhesive which contacts the holding part and the wall element. The adhesive can thus contribute to the attachment of the holding part to the wall element. However, the adhesive is preferably not designed to absorb weight forces acting on the holding part during normal use of the household appliance. Rather, the adhesive can be designed to enable the holding part to be pre-fixed until it is sufficiently fixed, for example by insulating material which is arranged on the surface of the wall element facing away from the receiving space. The adhesive can be tape or hot glue. The adhesive can also represent a seal between the holding part and the wall element and/or a seal of openings in the wall element.
