The cooling devices (1), preferably refrigerators, contain one or more shelves (3) that divide the inside of the refrigerators, for example freezing compartments, into sections, in order to make the best use of the spaces on which food and beverages are placed for cooling, one or more partitions (2), which are used to provide convenience for the user by forming small compartments between the shelves (3) or between the shelf (3) and the case, one or more holders (5) of partitions, which mounted on or under the shelves (3), which make it possible to load and remove objects in an appropriate and effective way by securing the partitions (2) in a predetermined position, preferably so that they face each other, and which allow the partition (2 ) also extend or function as a drawer by fastening, preferably so that they are next to each other and face each other above or below the shelf (3).

The holder (5) of the partition contains one or more channels (6), which have the same shape as the partition (2), and which are provided for fixing and / or covering the partition, and the wall (7) of the channels that form the channels (6) ) with each other and / or with a place such as the shelf on which they are mounted.

The partition (2) contains one or more holes (8), which are located in the positions and have the dimensions determined by the manufacturer, in order to provide the necessary air flow into the refrigerator body (1), even if they are closed by products placed in front of them, and which give the opportunity to see products.

The holder (5) of the partition can be mounted on the surface in the refrigerator (1), such as a side wall, top wall or shelf (3), as an additional part, and can also be made integrally with the specified surface or as a single part, made in one piece with the partition (2) depending on the indicated surfaces.

In an embodiment in which the partition holder (5) is made integrally with the surface in the refrigerator, such as a side wall, top wall or shelf (3), the surface on which it is attached, such as a shelf (3), or a holder (5 ) Partitions can be made as one part. In this embodiment, the partition (2) is fixed by installation in the channel (6), and you can remove it in the same way (Fig.2, 3, 4, 5, 6).

In an embodiment in which the partition holder (5) is made as a unit integrally with the partition (2), when the partition holder (5) is fixed to the shelf (3) from its front, the partition (2) will also be fixed on the shelf (3) (Fig.7).

In an embodiment of the present invention, in which the partition holder (5) is made as a single part, the partition holder (5) is fixed to a surface used, such as a side wall, top wall or shelf (3). In this embodiment, the lower walls (7) of the channel of the partition holder (5) have a structure that surrounds the shelf (3) and which is easily installed in the shelf (3). The partition holder (5) is preferably mounted on a shelf (3), which is removed from the refrigerator (1), preferably by sliding out from its side. The holder (5) of the partition is installed in a predetermined position after installing the shelf (3) in its place. After installing the partition holder (5) in a predetermined position, the shelf (2) is moved into the channel (6) from the front to the rear of the housing and, by fixing in place, form the required sections. If it is necessary to use more than one, for example two, partitions (2), the shelf (3) is removed and two holders (5) of partitions are fixed on the shelf (3) on its sides, and when they are installed in the specified position on the shelf (3), partitions (2) are fixed in the channels (6). When you want to remove one of the partitions (2), the distance between the holders (5) of the partitions is increased to a width equal to the width of the partition (2), and the partition (2), which is not used, is inserted into the channel (6), which is composed of walls ( 7) channels of the holders (5) of the partitions, which are located nearby, and the upper surface of the shelf (3) by shifting from the front to the back of the refrigerator (1). Therefore, there is no need to remove the partition (2), and it can be stored inside the refrigerator, since it takes up little space. When it is again required to use the partition (2), it is pulled out and fixed in the channel (6), which is preferably located vertically with respect to the shelf (3). The partition (2) in this embodiment also serves as a drawer.

In an embodiment of the present invention, in which the partition holder (5) is made as a single part, the partition (2) that divides the space by installing into the channel (6) when not in use is displaced to the side edges of the space in which it is located with the holder (5) of the partitions, and it is not removed from the channel (6). Thus, it is not necessary to remove the partition (2), and it can be stored inside the refrigerator (1), since it takes up little space (Fig. 12, 13, 16, 17).

In these embodiments, in which the holder (5) of the partitions is fixed as a single part, the partition (2) is fixed on the lower and upper surface of the shelf (3) by selecting the desired channel (6), which can be located at the top or bottom in accordance with the surface, on which the holder (5) of the partitions is used. Channels (6), especially channels located under the surface on which they are used, allow more securely fastening the partition (2) and / or store under this surface (Fig. 15, 16, 17).

In these embodiments, in which the partition holder (5) is fixed as a single part, the partition (2) is stored between channels (6) that are located on and under the shelf (3) and which face each other and / or next to each other . Thus, if it is necessary to remove the partition (2), it is removed in the desired direction.

In another embodiment, in which the partition holder (5) is made as a single part, the shelf (3) comprises a groove (4) in which the partition holder (5) is fixed and in which it moves. The walls (7) of the channels, which correspond to the design and position of the groove (4), provide for the installation of the holder (5) of the partitions and the movement inside the groove (4) and prevent its separation from the partition (2).

In another embodiment of the present invention, the partition (2) is made of a transparent material, preferably plastic. Therefore, the products that are behind the partition (2) can be easily seen without taking out the products in the front section.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the partition (2) is used in the desired place and position, and when not in use, it makes it possible to optimally use the areas in the refrigerator (1), taking up little space in the refrigerator (1). Thus, the products in the refrigerator (1) can be loaded and removed in a proper and efficient way.

According to an embodiment of the invention, spaces in a refrigerator (1), for example spaces above shelves, can be used in whole or in part. Especially, in an embodiment in which a transparent material is used, all frozen products that are stored internally for a long period of time can be easily seen. Through holes (8), which are located on the partition (2) in the positions and with the dimensions determined by the manufacturer, cooling air circulates in the housing, and all products that are on the shelves (3) and / or between the partitions (2) are under exposure to circulating air. When the number of holes (8) is more than one, air flow is ensured even if one or more holes (8) are closed by products that are in front of them.
