Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cooling device wherein the air distribution in the compartment is improved.
  • the compartments are excessively loaded by the user, and sufficient cool air cannot be delivered into the compartment from the area where the evaporator and the fan are disposed behind the compartment.
  • grilles and air blowing holes in various forms are arranged on the rear wall of the compartment. The grilles on the evaporator cover create visible gaps on the surface covered, and this sight does not match with the cooling device.
  • the form of the grilles causes the user difficulties in cleaning the interior of the cooling device which is required due to spilled foodstuffs and air intake/discharge.
  • the odors of the foodstuffs mix with each due to the foodstuffs stored without being concealed in the cooling devices.
  • the odors of spoiled foodstuffs disperse into the compartment and permeate the items therein. Said unpleasant odors permeate other foodstuffs after a while, causing the taste and odor thereof to get spoiled.
  • the air circulating in the compartment becomes a problem disturbing the user when the door of the cooling device is opened.
  • a cooling device comprising a cool air distribution apparatus.
  • the cool air distribution apparatus comprises air ducts which send the cool air flowing from the evaporator situated behind the compartment into the compartment through grilles.
  • the cooling device comprises a U-shaped air duct which is arranged on the side and rear walls of the compartment and a second duct which is arranged on the door, with the ends opening into the compartment.
  • the aim of the present invention is the realization of a cooling device wherein the air distribution in the compartment is improved.
  • the cooling device realized in order to attain the aim of the present invention, explicated in the first claim and the respective claims thereof, comprises a frame which is attached to the wall of the air outlet on the evaporator cover, and a blowing channel which is attached to the frame and which has at least one blowing hole enabling the air leaving through the air outlet to be transferred into the compartment.
  • the frame does not block the delivery into the compartment of the air leaving through the air outlet.
  • the blowing channel is mounted to the rails on the frame by means of the slide thereon.
  • the connection mechanism comprising the slide and the rail, the blowing channel is mounted onto the frame so as to slide right or left.
  • the blowing channel is enabled to be attached to/detached from the compartment in an easy and simple manner.
  • two parallel openings are arranged on the frame.
  • the blowing channel has a cylindrical structure in the form of a tube.
  • materials releasing odors into the compartment or retaining unpleasant odors in the compartment are placed into the blowing channel.
  • the air delivered into the compartment through the air outlet is more efficiently distributed.
  • the detachable structure of the frame and the blowing channel prevents the deformation of the compartment walls, and enables the frame and the blowing channel to be easily taken out of the cooling device to be cleaned, and then replaced in an easy and simple manner.
  • a pleasant odor is provided in the compartment and unpleasant odors in the compartment are eliminated.
  • Figure 1 - is the front view of a cooling device.
  • Figure 2 - is the front perspective view of the frame and the blowing channel.
  • Figure 3 - is the rear perspective view of the frame and the blowing channel.
  • Figure 4 - is the exploded perspective view of the frame and the blowing channel.
  • Figure 5 - is the view of detail A in Figure 4.
  • the cooling device (1) comprises at least one compartment (2) wherein items to be cooled or frozen are placed; at least one door (3) providing access into the compartment (2); an evaporator which draws thermal energy from the environment so as to provide cooling; a fan which enables the cool air generated by the evaporator to be moved and blown into the compartment (2); a cover (4) which separates the compartment from the region where the evaporator and the fan are disposed; at least one air outlet (5) which is arranged on the cover (4) and which enables the air blown by the fan to be transferred into the compartment (2); a frame (6) which is mounted to the wall of the air outlet (5) and which has at least one opening (7); and a blowing channel (8) which is mounted to the frame (6) so as to align with the opening (7) thereon and which has at least one blowing hole (9) which enables the air leaving through the air outlet (5) to be transferred into the compartment (2) ( Figure 1 and Figure 2).
  • the frame (6) is mounted onto the air outlet (5) so as not to block the air outlet (5).
  • the opening (7) on the frame (6) overlaps with the air outlet (5).
  • the frame (6) has a structure matching with that of the air outlet (5) and has a form which will not disturb the user in the compartment (2) ( Figure 3).
  • the cooling device (1) comprises a connection mechanism (10) which enables the frame (6) and the blowing channel (8) to be attached to each other.
  • the connection mechanism (10) comprises at least one rail (12) on the frame (6) and at least one slide (11) on the wall of the blowing channel (8).
  • the blowing channel (8) is attached to the frame (6) by being slid in the horizontal axis.
  • the slide (11) on the blowing channel (8) slides right or left inside the rail (12) on the frame (6).
  • the connection mechanism (10) the blowing channel (8) is enabled to be attached to/detached from the frame (6) in an easy and simple manner.
  • foodstuffs spilled onto or the dirt accumulated on the blowing channel (8) in the compartment (2) are/is enabled to be easily cleaned outside, and the blowing channel (8) can be replaced onto the frame (6) by the user without using any tool.
  • the frame (6) is in the form of a grille and comprises at least two parallel openings (7).
  • the frame (6) and the opening (7) are quadrilateral.
  • the blowing channel (8) is in the form of a cylindrical tube.
  • the frame (6) comprises a connection member (13) provided on the rear side thereof.
  • the connection member (13) is a protrusion extending in the horizontal axis.
  • the connection member (13) is positioned behind the wall separating the two openings (7) on the frame (6).
  • the cooling device (1) comprises materials which are disposed into the blowing channel (8), releasing pleasant odors into the compartment or retaining unpleasant odors in the compartment (2).
  • Said materials can be lavender, lemon, salt or the like.
  • the cooling device (1) comprises at least two detachable plugs (14) at the both ends of the blowing channel (8).
  • the plugs (14) By means of the plugs (14), materials releasing pleasant odors into the compartment (2) or retaining unpleasant odors in the compartment can be easily disposed into the blowing channel (8).
  • the blowing holes (9) are arranged in the horizontal axis along the blowing channel (8) ( Figure 5).
  • the air delivered into the compartment (2) through the air outlet (5) is more efficiently distributed.
