Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a cooling device which provides alternatives to the user especially in freezing compartment doors.
- Refrigerators comprise a fresh food compartment wherein foodstuffs consumed daily or weekly are placed and a freezing compartment which prevents spoilage of foodstuffs stored for a long term. Said freezing and fresh food compartments are generally opened/closed by two separate doors in order to enable the user to access the foodstuff in the desired compartment by opening the door of said compartment and to prevent heat losses. Depending on the installation area of the refrigerators in the kitchen, the opening/closing direction (right turning axis or left turning axis) of the doors of the freezing and fresh food compartments can be adjusted while the refrigerator is installed.
- There are also some refrigerators with freezing compartment doors having mechanisms which can be opened/closed in different ways. For example, there are door with different structures which can be opened/closed like a drawer or which have only a standard door opening/closing mechanism. However, in said doors which can be opened/closed in a single manner, the user encounters problems of opening the door of a compartment as desired especially in a narrow area and easily accessing the foodstuffs in the compartment. The user may want to access the foodstuffs through a small gap without completely opening the door when the space is limited.
- Therefore, it is important in terms of convenience to differentiate the manner especially the freezing compartment door opens/closes in the refrigerators in limited spaces as per user need so as to save space.
- In the state of the art Japanese Patent Document No. JP201710189, it is disclosed that after a drawer-type freezing compartment door is opened as a drawer, the cover part thereof is axially opened outwards.
- The aim of the present invention is the realization of a cooling device comprising a door which can be opened/closed in different manners as per user need and a door handle which enables the door to be opened/closed in different manners.
- The cooling device of the present invention comprises a door handle which is connected to the door from a point thereof and which can be shifted to horizontal or vertical positions on the door after being rotated around said connection point. With the movement of said door handle, the door of the cooling device can be opened both by rotating around the vertical axis of the body and by sliding forward in the horizontal axis of the body.
- The cooling device of the present invention comprises a movement mechanism which enables the door to be opened as a drawer when the user changes the door handle to the horizontal position and which enables the door to be opened by rotating around the vertical axis of the body when the user changes the door handle to the vertical position.
- The gearwheel in the movement mechanism is connected to the door handle and the connection point, and thus when the door handle is moved, the gearwheel also moves and actuates the movement mechanism.
- When the door handle is rotated around the connection point in the upwards direction to be shifted to the horizontal position on the door, the gearwheel rotates left with the movement of the door, thus the upper movement arm moves downwards and the lower movement arm moves upwards. Thus, the upper and lower hinges are released from the hinge pins and the feet on the upper movement arm are fitted into the rail housing. Consequently, the door can be opened/closed forwards from the body as a drawer.
- When the door handle is rotated around the connection point in the downwards direction to be shifted to the vertical position on the door, the gearwheel rotates right with the downwards movement of the door, thus the lower movement arm moves downwards and the upper movement arm moves upwards. In this way, the feet on the upper movement arm are released from the rail housing, and the upper movement arm is fitted into the upper hinge by means of the upper hinge pin while the lower movement arm is fitted into the lower hinge by means of the lower hinge pin. Thus, the door can be opened/closed by rotating around the vertical axis of the body.
- In an embodiment of the present invention, the cooling device comprises a lower and an upper fixing element which are disposed on the door and which enable the door handle to be connected to the door from the other end of the connection point. Thus, the door handle is enabled to be securely mounted onto the door after moving between the horizontal and vertical positions.
- By means of the cooling device of the present invention, a cooling device is realized, comprising a door which can be opened/closed in an alternative manner. Consequently, the user can easily shift between the different opening/closing positions of the door by means of the rotary movement of the door handle.
