Definitions
- the present invention relates to a cooling device, especially a refrigerator, comprising a door with adjustable opening/closing force.
- the door is connected to the body by means of hinges, and the hinges enable the door to rotatably open/close around the vertical axis of the body.
- the hinges have a triangular protrusion and said protrusion contacts a stopper provided on the door.
- the stopper is fixed on the door, and the protrusion of the hinge rubs against the stopper, thus enabling the door to open/close.
- the user applies force (pushing or pulling) only until the stopper passes over the apex of the protrusion of the hinge to open or close the door.
- the door can automatically close or open without requiring any additional force.
- the same hinge and the same stopper are used for cooling device doors of different types and with different weights.
- the weight of the cooling device doors varies due to factors such as material of the door, items loaded onto the inner shelves of the door, etc. Therefore, since the change in the weight of the door changes the opening/closing force to be applied on the door by the user, a structure for applying different pulling/pushing forces for different weights of door is required.
- a refrigerator comprising a door with limited opening angle and wherein the maximum opening force of the door is limited by means of a stopper.
- the door and the body are connected to each other by means of a hinge which provides the opening/closing of the door.
- Said hinge comprises a triangular protrusion having an apex.
- the cooling device of the present invention comprises a ball which functions as a stopper so as to align with the protrusion and a cover whereon the ball is positioned and supported.
- the cover comprises a ball housing which receives the ball.
- the cooling device of the present invention comprises a housing which is provided at the lower side of the door and which receives the cover whereon the ball functioning as a stopper so as to align with the protrusion during the opening/closing of the door is supported.
- the housing comprises mounting points which enable the cover to be mounted to a plurality of points predetermined by the producer.
- the ball is mounted to the housing at the lower side of the door so as to contact the different regions of the protrusion of the hinge. By contacting the protrusion, the ball can move upwards and downwards in the space inside the housing.
- the housing comprises a first mounting hole, a second mounting hole and a third mounting hole wherein the cover can be mounted.
- the door opens in a harsh manner.
- the cover is mounted to the second mounting hole, the door opens in a semi-harsh manner.
- the cover is mounted to the third mounting hole, the door opens in a smooth manner.
- the cover comprises a pair of screw holes for providing connection with the mounting holes.
- the cover is screwed to a mounting hole preferred by the user by means of screws to adjust the opening force of the door.
- the housing comprises a spring which provides the movement of the ball and a connection beam whereon the spring is disposed.
- the ball can flexibly move inside the housing depending on the pressure force applied by the protrusion.
- a cooling device comprising a door wherein different pulling forces can be adjusted for different door weights.
- the cooling device (1) comprises a body (2); a door (3) which covers the body (2), which provides access into the body (2) and which has an upper side (19), two lateral sides (18) and a lower side (17); at least one hinge (4) which enables the door (3) to be connected to the body (2) in an openable/closable manner; and a protrusion (14) which is provided at one end of the hinge (4) and which creates an elevation from the surface of the hinge (4) towards the lower side (17).
- the cooling device (1) of the present invention comprises a ball (7) which functions as a stopper by contacting the protrusion (14) while the door (3) is opened/closed; a cover (8) whereon the ball (7) is placed; and a housing (5) which is provided on the lower side (17) and which enables the cover (8) supporting the ball (7) to be mounted to the lower side (17) at a plurality of mounting positions predetermined by the producer.
- the cooling device (1) comprises the hinge (4) having the protrusion (14) for enabling the door (3) to be opened/closed around the vertical axis of the body (2).
- the hinge (4) is disposed between the door (3) and the body (2) and connects the door (3) and the body (2) to each other from at least one section thereof.
- the lower side (17) comprises the housing (5) which is formed as a recess at a region corresponding to the protrusion (14). At both sides of said housing (5), mounting points are provided at different positions predetermined by the producer.
- the ball (7) is placed onto the cover (8), and the cover (8) can be mounted to the housing (5) at the different mounting points provided at both sides of the housing (5).
- the ball (7) contacts different sections of the protrusion (14) while the door (3) is being opened/closed, and as the protrusion (14) applies pressure onto the ball (7), the ball (7) moves upwards or downwards in the housing (5).
- the cover (8) By enabling the cover (8) to be mounted to the housing (5) at a plurality of points, the ball (7) contacts different sections of the protrusion (14), thus adjusting the door (3) to open/close in a harsh, semi-harsh or smooth manner.
- the protrusion (14) is in the form of a triangle and comprises an apex (T) and two lateral sides.
- the cooling device (1) comprises first mounting holes (9) which enable the door (3) to be opened in a harsh manner, second mounting holes (10) which enable the door (3) to be opened in a semi-harsh manner, and third mounting holes (11) which enable the door (3) to be opened in a smooth manner with a small force, wherein the mounting holes (9, 10, 11) are oppositely disposed at both sides of the housing (5) in order to enable the cover (8) to be mounted to the housing (5) depending on the weight of the door (3).
- the position where the cover (8) is mounted to the housing (5) from the first mounting holes (9) is the first position (P1).
- the position where the cover (8) is mounted to the housing (5) from the second mounting holes (10) is the first position (P2).
- the position where the cover (8) is mounted to the housing (5) from the third mounting holes (11) is the first position (P3).
- the ball (7) contacts the apex (T) while the door (3) is being opened/closed, and thus the door (3) opens in a harsh manner.
- the second position (P2) the ball (7) contacts the protrusion (14) at a point close to the apex (T), and thus the door (3) can be opened/closed in a semi-harsh manner.
- the third position (P3) the ball (7) contacts the protrusion (14) at a point away from the apex (T), and thus the door (3) can be opened/closed in a smooth manner with a small force.
- the cover (8) comprises a pair of screw holes (16) which can be aligned with the first mounting holes (9), the second mounting holes (10) and the third mounting holes (11).
- the cover (8) is enabled to be mounted to the mounting holes (9, 10 and 11) at both sides of the housing (5) by means of screws (12).
- the cooling device (1) comprises a spring (6) which enables the ball (7) to move inside the housing (5) and at one end of which the ball (7) is placed, and a connection beam (13) which enables the spring (6) to be placed into the housing (5).
- the ball (7) can move inside the housing (5) depending on the pressure applied by the protrusion (14) onto the ball (7) during the opening/closing of the door (3).
- the cooling device (1) comprises the cover (8) having a ball housing (15) which receives the ball (7).
- the ball (7) is positioned on the cover (8) and then mounted to the housing (5).
- a cooling device (1) comprising a movable ball (7) which enables the opening/closing force to be adjusted by means of a single hinge (4) depending on the weight of the door (3).
