Abstract
A two-part cooling device including a heat-insulating housing and a cooling circuit including an evaporator, a compressor and a liquefier. The cooling device is subdivided into a first component including at least one housing and the evaporator and a second component including at least the compressor. The first and second components are separable and can be placed in a variable manner in relation to each other.
Description
- The present invention relates to refrigerating appliance which is especially provided for installation in a furniture cavity. Presently two different designs are widely used for these refrigerating appliances.
- In a first design a machine compartment is recessed in a substantially rectangular heat-insulating housing which contains at least one compressor for the coolant circulating in the refrigerating appliance. A condenser for the coolant is mounted freely suspended on the rear wall of the insulating housing and is cooled by the convection of ascending air which heats up at the condenser.
- In a second known design, with the exception of the evaporator, substantially all the components of the cooling circuit are accommodated in a base unit mounted fixedly below the housing. A very favourable ratio of volume to surface area of housing can thereby be achieved, resulting in a low requirement for cooling capacity; however, convection can no longer be used for removing the waste heat from such a base unit so that forced ventilation is required for this purpose. In addition, space occupied by the base unit in the fitting recess is lost to the users as storage space for other purposes.
- It is the object of the present invention to provide a refrigerating appliance and assemblies for a refrigerating appliance which can achieve a high energy efficiency and at the same time allow available space in a fitting cavity to be utilised very economically.
- It is a further object to provide a method for installing such a refrigerating appliance in furniture.
- The objects are solved by a refrigerating appliance having the features of
claim 1, assemblies having the features ofclaims claim 11. - Since in the refrigerating appliance according to the invention, the conventional fixed connection between the heat-insulating housing on the one hand and the base unit on the other hand is eliminated, it is possible to accommodate both these units spatially separated from one another in largely arbitrary positions in relation to one another in furniture such as a kitchen cupboard. A readily accessible zone of the furniture can be selected for accommodating the first structural unit comprising the housing whereas the second structural unit comprising the compressor can be placed in a poorly accessible zone which is not very attractive for any other usage or in any case, would not be usable at all. Such a zone is especially the base area present in most kitchen furniture, immediately adjacent to. the floor. The refrigerating appliance according to the invention has thus opened up space which has hitherto been unused, as so-called machine compartment whereby storage space is gained either for the refrigerating appliance or the built-in cupboard holding the refrigerating appliance.
- In principle, it is possible to supply the two structural units of the refrigerating appliance according to the invention joined together ex works substantially only by a coolant pipe but not by rigid mechanical connection elements. This has the advantage that the coolant circuit of the refrigerating appliance can be joined together in a sealed fashion in the factory and that problems are avoided which can arise if the coolant circuit is only filled with coolant after the refrigerating appliance has been assembled at its installation site or if parts of the coolant circuit filled with coolant at the factory need to be joined together during assembly. Since such a connection makes it fairly difficult to handle the two assemblies of the refrigerating appliance during assembly, a coupling is preferably provided, however, in a coolant pipe connecting the two assemblies which makes it possible to mount the two assemblies separately from one another in the furniture and only join them together after assembly.
- Such a coupling preferably consists of two portions, each attached to the pipe section of the first assembly or the second assembly and which are self-closing in the uncoupled state. Couplings of this type which are designed to prevent any escape of coolant in the uncoupled state are known from air conditioning. The use of these couplings means that the two portions of the coolant circuit of the refrigerating appliance according to the invention allotted to the first or to the second assembly, can be filled with coolant in the factory independently of one another and nevertheless an uncontrolled escape of coolant into the atmosphere can be prevented.
- More appropriately the second assembly is fitted with forced ventilation so that it can also be built into zones of furniture which otherwise would only be inadequately cooled.
- A condenser can in principle be provided as part of the first or the second assembly as desired. In particular, if the second assembly is forcibly ventilated, it is appropriate to integrate the condenser in the second assembly.
- A condensation water pipe for removing moisture deposited in the interior of the housing is more appropriately guided in a line together with the coolant pipe. In such a case, the condensation water pipe is more appropriately provided with a coupling in the same way as the coolant pipe.
- An evaporator tray at which the condensation water pipe ends is more appropriately integrated in the second assembly in order to use the waste heat released from the compressor for vaporising the water of condensation.
- Further features and advantages of the invention are obtained from the following description of an exemplary embodiment with reference to the appended figures which show
-
FIG. 1 is a schematic section through a refrigerating appliance according to the invention built into a kitchen cupboard. - The built-in
cupboard 1 shown in cross-section inFIG. 1 has acavity 2 in its upper area which accommodates afirst assembly 3 of the refrigerating appliance according to the invention. Thefirst assembly 3 substantially comprises a heat-insulating housing comprising abody 4 and adoor 5 which enclose aninterior compartment 6 for the storage of chilled goods. In the figure theinterior compartment 6 is shown as an example without subdivision and with asingle evaporator 7 at its rear wall, naturally it could also be subdivided by dividing walls into a plurality of different temperature zones which can optionally each be fitted with their own evaporator which can be supplied with coolant independently of the evaporators of the other zones or it could be an appliance in a no-frost design where the evaporator is accommodated in a chamber which communicates from the interior via forced ventilation. - An
intake pipe 8 and adrain pipe 9 for the coolant supply of theevaporator 7 are guided out at the back of thebody 4 and end jointly at thecoupling portion 10. - A
collecting channel 11 for water of condensation draining from theevaporator 7 is formed at the back wall of theinterior compartment 6 below theevaporator 7. Adrain pipe 12 is guided out at the back of thebody 4 starting from the lowest point of the collectingchannel 11 and ends like thepipes coupling portion 10. Thecoupling portion 10 thus has three connector elements, one for eachpipe pipes coupling portion 10 in order to prevent coolant from escaping from theevaporator 7 and thepipes - A
second cavity 13 of the built-incupboard 1 below thecavity 2 accommodating thefirst assembly 3 in this case contains twodrawers 14. Thecavity 13 is not cooled. Its depth is somewhat less than that of thecavity 2 so that between arear wall 15 of thecavity 13 and awall 16 on which the built-incupboard 1 is mounted, ashaft 17 connecting thecavity 2 to abase cavity 18 of thecupboard 1 remains free. - In the
base cavity 18, asecond assembly 19 of the refrigerating appliance, for example, rests directly above the floor. Thissecond assembly 19 comprises acompressor 20, asuction pipe 21 and a pressure pipe 22 which respectively connect thecompressor 20 to asecond coupling portion 23, acondenser 24 inserted in the pressure pipe 22 and afan 25 which serves as forced ventilation for the compressor and thecondenser 24. - The two
coupling portions drain pipe 9 to thesuction pipe 21, theinlet pipe 8 to the pressure pipe 22 and thedrain pipe 12 to adrain pipe 26 which discharges onto anevaporation tray 27 mounted on thecompressor 20. - In the case of the
second coupling portion 23 the connector elements allocated to thepipes 21, 22 carrying the coolant are self-closing when not connected. - The refrigerating appliance according to the invention is delivered from the manufacturer in the form of two
assemblies first assembly 3 in acavity 2 in a usual manner for a conventional refrigerator and then inserting theassembly 19 into the base cavity, e.g. from the front after afront plinth 28 of the base cavity has been temporarily removed. The twocoupling portions pipes first assembly 3 and guiding thepipes coupling portion 10 through theshaft 17, by pulling thecoupling portion 10 forward through thebase cavity 17 and joining to thecoupling portion 23 before pushing thesecond assembly 19 into its position. - The separation of the two
assemblies cupboard 1 for accommodating thesecond assembly 19. Compared to the conventional designs of refrigerating appliances described initially, a volume of about 20 litre is thereby released in the cavity. That is, the building-in cavity can be reduced in height in accordance with this 20 litres whilst the volume of theinterior compartment 6 remains the same, whereby additional space is provided for other purposes in the built-incupboard 1 or theinterior compartment 6 of the refrigerating appliance can be correspondingly enlarged whilst the dimensions of thecavity 2 remain unchanged. - Naturally, it is not necessary to mount the two
assemblies second assembly 19 above thefirst assembly 3, possibly in an area of the built-in cupboard near the ceiling which is likewise poorly accessible for a user in general. In such a case, it would be more appropriate to provide a pump in thedrain pipe interior compartment 6 to the level of theevaporation tray 27.
