Description
- The present invention relates to a refrigerating built-in appliance configured for installation in a piece of kitchen furniture having a front panel hinged to a cabinet structure. The front panel is typically arranged frontally at a door of the refrigerating appliance and connected thereto by way of at least a sliding and connecting device which comprises a rail element and a sliding element.
- In the above kind of appliances the sliding and connecting device is installed between the door of the appliance and the front panel of a piece of furniture containing the household appliance, such panel being a door of the furniture niche.
- According to such known technique it is possible to use both hinges, i.e. the hinge of the built-in appliance door and the hinge of the furniture front panel, without the need of using expensive special hinges having several axis of rotation.
- For practical and aesthetical reasons, the two "doors", i.e. door of appliance and the panel/door of the piece of furniture, should remain as close to each other as possible during opening and closing, when there is a lateral shift between the two doors due to the two different vertical axis of hinges.

EP857929 - The same considerations apply to the solution shown in
DE4200333A1 where a rail element is fastened to a upper side of an appliance door and a sliding element is fastened to a front panel of a piece of furniture configured to accommodate the built-in refrigerator. - Document
EP0657609A1 discloses a device for hinging a door of a built-in refrigerator to a door panel of a furniture item. The device comprises hinge means having a part which is fixed to the furniture item and to the appliance and a part which is associated with the door panel and which comprises elastic return means for self-closure of the door panel. The device further comprises drag means for the door, The drag means includes a L-shaped guide supported by the door panel slidingly cooperating with a slide of complementary form fixed to the refrigerator door. - Document
WO2018/133210A1 discloses a door connecting device for an embedded refrigerator. - Document
WO2013/182428A1 discloses a built-in household appliance comprising a decorative panel. - Despite robustness and reliability of known sliding and connecting devices of the type above, they are generally perceived as cheap solutions due to their visibility to users when opening and closing the door of a refrigerator appliance.
- Moreover, rail elements are typically provided with a removable plastic cover that conceals the screws used for fastening such element. During use of the appliance and in view of the position of the rail element near the vertical edges of the doors restrained to each other, such cover can be accidentally detached, increasing the low perceived quality of the device.
- For this reasons, direct connection of furniture panels to refrigerator doors is more and more used by manufactures of kitchen furniture. However, this solution is far more expensive and complex than sliding and connecting devices. Hence, a need exists to improve sliding and connecting devices for refrigerator built-in appliances.
- To this end, the invention relates to a built-in appliance including all the features of the independent claim.
- Preferred embodiments are defined in the dependent claims.
- Further technical features and advantages of the invention will be clear in the following description, which is provided as a non-limiting example, with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
-

Figure 5 is an enlarged view of a detail offigure 4 ; -
Figure 6 is a section along line VI-VI offigure 5 ; -
Figure 7 is a perspective view of the sliding element according to the first embodiment; -
Figure 8 is a perspective view of the sliding element according to the second embodiment of the invention. - The indications "upper", "lower", "top", "front", "bottom", "floor", "horizontal", "vertical" and the like refer to the positions and orientations of the household appliance in its intended use position with respect to an observer located in front of the household appliance.
- With reference to the drawings, A indicates a kitchen piece of furniture having an upper front panel A1 and a lower front panel A2 (for instance wooden panels or the like), both hinged to the piece of furniture A along a vertical axis and acting as doors of the piece of furniture A. Inside the piece of furniture A a built-in refrigerating appliance 10 (shown only schematically in the drawings) having an
upper door 12 for closing arefrigeration compartment 12a and alower door 14 for closing a freezer compartment is inserted. Between each panel A1 and A2 of the piece of furniture A and eachdoor device 16, comprising a sliding element, or cursor, 18 and arail 20, is interposed. Reference will be made in the following todoor 12 and panel A1. It goes without saying that the same considerations apply, mutatis mutandis, todoor 14 and panel A2. - According to a first embodiment, which is not part of the present invention, shown in
figures 1-3 and7 , thesliding element 18 is L-shaped and has a firstflat portion 18a fastened to an upperhorizontal edge 12b of theappliance door 12 and a second flatorthogonal portion 18b on which ahollow profile 18c having a C-shaped cross section is formed. Therail 20 is fastened on a rear surface of the front panel A1 and features a H-shaped cross section configured to match and engage the C-shaped cross section of thehollow profile 18c. The slidingelement 18 is fastened to thedoor 12 at a predetermined position, for instance in a seat (not shown) provided in the upper edge of the door so that the firstflat portion 18a may be substantially flush with suchupper edge 12b. Fastening screws (not shown) are inserted inopenings 18d of the firstflat portion 18. Moreover, the firstflat portion 18a has aseat 19 where a flat plug (not shown) can be mounted e.g. by snap-fitting in order to hide the screw heads and theopenings 18d. Therail element 20 is fastened to the panel A1 or A2 by means of screws, and for its correct initial positioning a self-adhesive tape (not shown) may be used during the assembly of the built-in appliance. - The sliding
element 18 may be fastened to thedoor 12 also by using its secondvertical portion 18b which, in this case, will be provided with holes (not shown) for fastening screws. - The shape and dimensions of the sliding element 18 (as indicated in
figure 3 ) are such that therail 20 on which it slides is completely interposed between the panel A1 and thedoor 12 of the appliance, so that in any position ofsuch door 12 during its opening and closing movement, it is totally invisible to the user. What the user can see is only the first flathorizontal portion 18a of thesliding element 18, which is small and placed in a seat of the upper edge of the door, so that its visibility is very low. - The same kind of sliding connection between the panel and the door of the appliance can be used for the lower panel A2 (freezer) as well. Of course some variants of this system can be adopted, for instance the sliding and connecting
device 16 can be positioned at the lower edge of thedoor 12, or twosliding devices 16 can be used for both horizontal edges of thedoor 12. Also the shape of thesliding element 18 and of therail element 20 can be different from what shown in the drawings, and the cross section of therail 20 can be different from the H shape shown in the drawings, for instance it could have a simple T-shaped cross section. Also the fastening means of therail element 20 to the panels A1 and A2 could be different from screws. Alternatively, therail element 20 could be glued to the panel. - With reference to
figures 4-6 and8 , a second embodiment of the sliding and connectingdevice 16 is shown wherein this comprises arail element 20 that is substantially identical to the one used in the first embodiment. Instead of the L-shapedsliding element 18, asliding element 22 having a quadrangular flat shape, with afirst surface 22a having loweredseats 24 and asecond surface 22b having a C-shapedhollow profile 22c configured (as in the first embodiment) to engage therail element 20. In theseats 24 of the slidingelement 22 elongatedmagnetic inserts 26 are fastened (for instance by glue),such inserts 26 being designed for cooperating with themetal door 12 of theappliance 10 for fastening the slidingelement 22 thereto. Theseats 24 are placed adjacent to parallel opposite edges of thesliding element 22 and the C-shapedhollow profile 22c is placed, on theother side 22b of thesliding element 22, in a central position between theseats 24 so that theseats 24 and the C-shapedhollow profile 22c exploit the thickness of thesliding element 22. The depth of theseats 24 and the thickness of themagnetic inserts 26 are such that thefirst surface 22a of thesliding element 22 is at the same level of theinserts 26, as clearly shown infigure 6 , so that the magnetic fastening is robust, with no deflection of thesliding element 22. By choosing a proper length and surface of themagnetic inserts 26, thesliding element 22 can be reliably fastened to the front flat surface of themetal door 12 of theappliance 20. - During installation of the built-in appliance, it is sufficient to fasten the
rail 20 to the panel A1, to slide on it thesliding element 22 in a proper position and then to close the panel A1 on theappliance door 12, so that themagnetic inserts 26 can exert their effect. By pulling out the panel A1 for opening the appliance door, therail 20 will draw thedoor 12 by means of the slidingelement 22 attached magnetically to themetal door 12. In order to remove the panel A1 or A2 from thedoor 12 or 14 (for instance for maintenance purposes), the user can lever with a tool between the panel and the door. - Both the
sliding element 22 and therail element 20 are fully interposed between the panel A1 or A2 and thedoor device 16 is not visible by the user. - In the second embodiment a
rail element 20 may be provided with magnetic inserts in order to be magnetically fastened to thedoor 12 of the appliance, while thesliding element 22 may be fastened by way of screws or the like to the panel A1 of the kitchen furniture A. Moreover, in the second embodiment the whole slidingelement 22 can be made of magnetic material instead of using magnetic inserts.
