Definitions

  • the food storage container has a bowl for holding the food.
  • the food receptacle also has a lid that is separate from the bowl and can be placed on the bowl to close the bowl.
  • the food receptacle has a ventilation device with which air can be exchanged between the environment and the interior of the food receptacle.
  • the ventilation device has a pivotable flap which, in an open position, exposes a ventilation opening and closes the ventilation opening in the closed position.
  • Another aspect of the invention relates to a household refrigerator with such a food container.
  • DE 10 2016 218 342 A1 discloses refrigeration device with a cooled storage space and a shell arranged in the storage space so that it can be pulled out, a flap movable between a closed and an open position being provided in a wall of the shell, and that in an inserted stop position with the flap closed, a gap between the wall of the shell and a wall of the storage space opposite it and the flap engages in the gap in the open position.
  • EP 3 077 745 A1 discloses a household refrigeration appliance with an interior space for containing food, which is delimited by walls of an inner container, and with a horizontally oriented partition wall arranged in the interior space, and with a door for closing the interior space, the partition wall being in a depth direction of the The front area of the household refrigeration device has a lowered platform.
  • WO 2014/206815 A1 discloses a household refrigeration device with an interior for holding food, which is delimited by walls of an inner container, and with a fresh-keeping container for food arranged in the interior, which is protected by a lid can be closed, and with a storage device with which the lid can be raised and lowered in the interior for opening and closing the fresh-keeping container, and with a control element with which the lid can be actuated, the control element for actuating the lid on an actuation path around an axis is rotatable and can be locked at least in one rotational position along the actuation path.
  • Such a household refrigerator is, for example, from WO 2004/038312 A1 known.
  • recesses are formed in a lid of the food container, in which strip-like and flat plates are pivotably mounted. It is therefore necessary that the lid itself is formed with such bordered recesses in order to be able to insert these flaps therein.
  • the pivot axis, about which a flap can be pivoted, is arranged within the lid when viewed in the height direction and thus within the height of the lid. As a result, when the flat flap is opened, constellations occur in which the upwardly projecting portion of the flap is relatively far up. Due to the flat design of the flap, a freely projecting part of the flap that projects steeply upwards is oriented in a pivoted manner.
  • the invention relates to a food storage container for a household refrigerator, according to claim 1.
  • the flap is pivoted on the shell. It is only stored on the bowl and not on the lid. With such a design, it is now possible to store the flap not on the lid, but on the shell that is separate from the lid. For such a configuration, the flap can be positioned further forward when viewed in the depth direction. It is therefore arranged more exposed. This enables direct operation by a user. In this context, it is not necessary for the flap to be actuated via a separate actuating unit or an actuating element. This makes it possible to save components of the food container. In addition, this positioning of the flap on the shell also makes it easier for a user to see the position of the flap.
  • the flap is pivotably arranged on a storage device of the food container.
  • This storage device is mounted directly on the shell.
  • the storage device is in particular a component separate from the shell. In particular, it is arranged directly on the shell.
  • the storage device is a separate component to the flap.
  • the flap is only arranged directly on the storage device. It is stored on the shell by the storage device.
  • both this and the flap can be removed from the shell in a non-destructive manner.
  • This has advantages in terms of cleaning the components. This also makes it easier to replace the individual components mentioned.
  • a storage device also provides a mechanically robust and resilient component. It can therefore be arranged in an improved manner on the shell, so that corresponding mechanical holding forces arise.
  • the flap can be designed to be more delicate and does not have to apply the holding forces directly to hold it on the shell. This has advantages in terms of the size and weight of the flap. Because this flap can be designed to be more delicate due to the advantageous design with the storage device, it is also easier to pivot. This has advantages if the user pivots the flap by directly touching the flap.
  • the storage device is mounted on the shell with a snap connection or a plug connection.
  • This is a simple yet highly functional mechanical connection.
  • advantageous non-destructively releasable connections are thereby formed.
  • the storage device is a rail with an L-shaped cross section perpendicular to its longitudinal axis.
  • This specific shape enables particularly large mechanical contact with the shell. This advantageously achieves a mechanically stable fit on the shell.
  • the L-shaped rail also creates a compact body that adapts to the shape of the shell in the mechanical contact area.
  • the L-shape in particular is advantageous with regard to the fact that it rests on the shell on two different surfaces, which are also arranged at an angle to one another. The positional security and positional accuracy are thereby improved.
  • this L-shape can therefore also be arranged on the container of the bowl, on which two adjacent surfaces are inclined to one another at a corresponding angle.
  • the design as a rail which represents an elongated component, is advantageous in order to be able to accommodate a correspondingly elongated flap over its entire or substantially entire length.
  • this storage device when viewed in the direction of its longitudinal axis, this storage device is designed with a length that corresponds to between 80% and 120% of the length of the flap. This also creates a stable support through the storage device.
  • the rail has an upper rail leg.
  • the rail has a vertical rail leg.
  • the upper rail leg and the vertical rail leg are formed in one piece with one another.
  • the L shape is formed by this configuration.
  • the upper rail leg is preferably arranged horizontally. It therefore also represents a roof leg. With such a design, a storage device can thus be placed from above onto a corresponding assembly area of the shell. This results in a correspondingly snug fit on this mounting area of the shell due to the weight of the storage device.
  • This rail is closed at the front by the appropriately oriented vertical rail leg.
  • This vertical rail leg therefore advantageously also represents a front panel. Areas of the shell behind it can therefore be covered at the front by this vertical rail leg.
  • this vertical rail leg also serves as a further contact surface or as a stop for the counter surface in the assembly area of the shell.
  • the upper rail leg has a coupling area on a rear edge viewed in the depth direction.
  • the coupling area in particular has a groove.
  • the shell has one coupling bridge. This is formed in particular in the assembly area of the shell to which this storage device is to be attached.
  • the coupling web can be inserted into this groove of the coupling area of the upper rail leg to connect the storage device to the shell.
  • the vertical rail leg has a coupling area at a lower edge.
  • this coupling area has a groove.
  • a coupling web of the shell which is designed to connect the storage device to the shell, can be inserted into this groove.
  • Such a coupling can therefore also take place at this specific connection point between the storage device and the shell.
  • a corresponding plug-in connection is thus formed, in which case a plug-in element is formed by the coupling web and the other plug-in element, in particular the mating plug-in element, is formed by the groove.
  • the two coupling webs mentioned and the two grooves are formed.
  • the grooves and coupling webs are oriented in different spatial directions, this results in a particularly stable position of the storage device in different spatial directions on the shell.
  • the coupling webs are formed in particular by edge regions of an upper boundary wall of the assembly area and a vertical boundary wall of the assembly area.
  • these coupling areas are designed as bent end pieces on the leg edges or leg edges of the rail legs mentioned.
  • These end regions of the rail legs are therefore U-shaped in cross section. They can also be referred to as hook-shaped configurations.
  • the storage device is placed on an upper edge of the shell.
  • the storage device is located on an upper side in the roof wall, in particular the upper boundary wall top edge of the bowl.
  • the storage device also rests on a front side of a front wall, in particular the vertical boundary wall, of the upper edge.
  • the front wall and the roof wall of the shell meet directly.
  • the front wall is preferably oriented vertically.
  • the roof wall is oriented particularly horizontally.
  • the storage device has an integrated swivel trough.
  • This swivel trough is preferably formed on an upper side or an outside of a rail leg.
  • the swivel trough is formed on an upper side of a horizontal rail leg.
  • This horizontal rail leg is the upper rail leg.
  • the swivel trough extends in a straight line. It is oriented in particular with its channel axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of the storage device.
  • the swivel trough has a C-shape in cross section and is therefore perpendicular to its longitudinal axis. This means that it is not closed in the direction of rotation around its longitudinal axis.
  • the flap has a coupling web.
  • This coupling web engages in the swivel trough when coupled to the storage device.
  • the coupling web is inserted into the swivel trough in such a way that it can move relative to the swivel trough therein, in particular can pivot about the longitudinal axis of the swivel trough.
  • the swivel trough is at least partially elastic. With such a configuration it is possible for the coupling web to be snapped into the swivel trough for coupling to the swivel trough. It can also be provided that the swivel trough is designed to be rigid in this regard. In such a configuration it can then be provided that the coupling web is inserted into the swivel trough at one end of the swivel trough in the axial direction and thus in the direction of the swivel axis.
  • the opening width of the swivel trough which is dimensioned in the circumferential direction of the swivel trough, is smaller than a diameter of the coupling web.
  • the coupling web can be designed, for example, as a round bar. Such a small dimensioning of the azimuthal opening of the With the swivel trough, the azimuthal slipping of the coupling web out of the swivel trough can be avoided.
  • the coupling web is arranged in the swivel trough with a precise fit and thus also in a form-fitting manner. This enables a highly precise pivoting movement of the flap.
  • the swivel trough is open to the rear when viewed in the depth direction. This means that their azimuthal opening is oriented backwards. Due to the width of the opening of the swivel trough in the azimuthal direction, when viewed in the direction of rotation around the swivel axis, the swivel width of the flap around this swivel axis is also predefined and limited. This means that a stop can be formed in a particularly precise manner by the swivel trough edges, so that the swivel movement of the flap is precisely specified.
  • a first stop is formed by a first edge of the swivel trough, which limits the opening of the swivel trough, through which a first stop position of the flap is also precisely specified. This can then be the closed position of the flap.
  • the flap is in the open position when it is arranged in the lateral position and accordingly abuts this second edge.
  • the swivel trough has a convexly curved outside.
  • the flap is seated on this outside with a concavely curved inside of a receptacle of the swivel trough.
  • the holder surrounds the swivel trough from the outside at least in some areas.
  • the outside of the swivel trough is therefore immersed in this receptacle of the flap, at least in some areas.
  • a form-fitting contact between this inside on the one hand and the outside on the other is achieved here.
  • the inside of the flap receptacle slides along the outside of the swivel trough when the flap is pivoted.
  • This configuration thus achieves a multiple, interlocking coupling principle between the flap and the storage device. This enables particularly stable pivoting with very precise movement guidance. Furthermore is with such a design, the swivel trough is covered by the flap. It is therefore also protected and, on the other hand, does not appear visually. This also creates a very tidy overall appearance.
  • the flap has a snap element.
  • the storage device advantageously has at least one counter-snap element.
  • the snap element of the flap is snapped to this counter-snap element of the storage device when the flap is in the closed position.
  • the closed position of the flap can also be locked. This avoids undesirable pivoting of the flap from the closed position to an open position.
  • the snap element is designed separately and at a distance from the pivot bearing. This means that the snap element is not part of the advantageous receptacle mentioned above, but is formed separately and in particular at a distance from it on the flap.
  • the flap has a front grip edge.
  • This grip edge can be directly grasped by a user. This is possible in particular both in the closed position of the flap and in the open position. This means a user can simply operate the flap directly.
  • the storage device with the flap is arranged as a front and/or top-mounted attachment on the shell. This results in an advantageous exposed position for both accessibility and handling as well as functionality.
  • the mounting area of the shell, on which the storage device is mounted directly is formed by at least one boundary wall which delimits a handle of the shell.
  • the handle of the bowl is in particular designed in one piece with the bowl. This represents in particular a recessed grip that can be grasped from below. This recessed grip is therefore open at the bottom.
  • the recessed grip is limited by a roof wall and a vertical front wall.
  • the roof wall is in particular the wall on which the advantageous existing and above-mentioned upper rail leg sits on.
  • the front wall is in particular the wall against which the vertical rail leg of the rail rests at the front.
  • a rear edge of the flap rests on a front edge of the lid when the flap is closed.
