Description

  • The present invention relates to a cooling appliance, in particular to a cooling appliance having improved handle wherein the handle can be selectively mounted by a user for left-hand swing or right-hand swing.
  • The cooling appliances are provided with a wide range of handle types. Most of the cooling appliances are provided with a reversible hinge system and a reversible handle which allows the users to selectively mount the door depending on the location of the cooling appliance. The user may mount the door to the body for either left-hand or right-hand swing. Many users need to change the swing direction of the door so as to meet their need. As a result, the customer may change by virtue of the reversible hinge system and the reversible handle, the swing direction of the door prior to installing the refrigerator at its designated location in the kitchen such that the door opens and closes in conformity with the kitchen layout.
  • In such cooling appliances, operational parts such as hinges, the handle and the parts required to assembly the hinges and the handle onto the body are all rendered transferrable from one side of the door to an opposite side of the door when reversing the swing direction of the door. As a result, the user is enabled to easily reverse the swing direction of the door without the need of extra elements and maintenance personel.
  • The customer removes the parts which conceal the demountable elements of the handle system, along with the parts related to hinges, in order to change the swing direction of the door. Subsequently, the customer demounts the reversible handle, along with the parts, from their current position on the door and re-mounts the same to an opposite side of the door.

  • A drawback of this type of a handle is that the complexity of the parts increases the manufacturing costs including the costs for material and labor.
  • A prior art publication in the technical field of the present invention may be referred to as US20130285527A1 among others, the document disclosing a handle for use in a door of a refrigeration appliance and an assembly method thereof.
  • A drawback of this type of a handle is that the screws and assembly of the same increases the manufacturing costs including the costs for material and labor.
  • An objective of the present invention is to decrease the number of screws used during assembly which in turn will affect the manufacturing costs including the costs for material and labor in a positive manner.

Afterwards, the insulation material is injected into the volume of the door. As a result, the connector is unmovably fixed inside the slots. A counterpart connector is placed inside the connector providing a rigid surface onto which further parts can be attached. A handle comprising an element wherein the element comprises hole is placed onto the door such that the hole of the handle is configured to coincide with the counterpart connector. A fixing part is inserted inside the counterpart connector by passing through the hole. Afterwards, the fixing part is rotated inside the counterpart connector, therefore releasable fixing the handle onto the door.
  • In an embodiment of the invention, the handle comprises two elements spaced apart on the handle by a distance. The elements are used to attach the handle onto the door. Use of two elements provides a rigid and strong attachment between the handle and the door.
  • In an embodiment of the invention, the hole has a stepped structure and the fixing part has corresponding shape such that the fixing part upon being placed inside the hole forms a flush surface with the handle.
