Abstract
Description
- The present invention refers to a refrigerating appliance, preferably for cooling drinks, comprising a cooling section with a freezing unit arranged therein, having a freezing section where an ice making device is arranged, said cooling and/or freezing section being optionally divided into several compartments by means of partition walls, and having an evaporator for creating and supplying cold air into the freezing and cooling section, where several cooling channels are formed in the body of the refrigerating appliance for distributing cooling air via several discharging slots into each separate compartment.
- The aforementioned refrigerating appliance comprising a cooling section with an ice making device arranged therein is well known, where an insulated body is inserted in the cooling section in which there is located an ice making device, an evaporator; and a fan arranged above said evaporator, said fan forcing cooled air over the ice making device. The drawback of the aforementioned solution is that the forced cooling air circulation in the cooling section is not satisfactory resulting in relatively high temperature gradients in the cooling section. There also exists a constant danger of moisture precipitation and/or ice creation on the walls dividing the cooling section from the ice making device which are not insulated or not insulated enough, respectively.
- It is the object of the present invention to create a refrigerating appliance where the cooling section is fed by a cooling air without fear that the foodstuff placed in the cooling section freezes locally, and where minimal temperature gradients are obtained in said cooling section.
- The object as set above is solved according to the invention by a vertical partition wall made of material having a good thermal conductivity, said partition wall being arranged in a cooling section and spaced from a back of the refrigerating appliance and extending over the entire free inner surface of said back. Thus, a channel for cooling air flow is created between said back and said partition wall. Said channel is conveniently divided in two vertical channels separated by means of a vertical web, where the first channel is intended to supply cooling air into the cooling section, and the second channel is intended to draw the air to an evaporator. Said vertical partition wall is formed in each compartment provided in the cooling section and in the area of the first vertical channel, with an array of suitable slots for supplying the cooling air into each compartment. Moreover, said vertical partition wall is formed, in the area of the second vertical channel, with an array of suitable slots for extracting the cooling air from the cooling section over the second vertical channel into the interspace between a freezing unit and the back of the refrigerating appliance where the evaporator is located. The freezing section is connected to the first vertical channel by means of a connecting channel, the aperture thereof can be opened and closed by means of a flap. The cooling air is blown into the cooling section and into the freezing section by means of a fan arranged in the partition wall which divides the evaporator from the freezing section. The air stream which is cooled down in the freezing section and which cools the ice making device returns through the slot in the partition wall that divides the evaporator from the freezing section into said interspace where the evaporator is located in order to be cooled down again.
- In order to obtain as good cooling results as possible, the first vertical channel for supplying cooling air extends in height from the lowest compartment, with which it is connected, and up to the top of the refrigerating appliance, and in width, it extends approximately from the freezing unit to the body. The second vertical channel extends from the lowest compartment, to which it is connected, and up to the freezing unit, and in width, it extends for the width of the freezing unit.
- In order to prevent freezing the drinks located directly by the vertical partition wall in the upper compartment, said vertical partition wall is lined with an insulation over the entire height of the channel in the area of entrance of the cold air stream into the first vertical channel and up to the discharging slots in the upper compartment. Thus, the possible freezing of drinks is prevented on one hand, and unwanted formation of water drops on the vertical partition wall on the other hand. According to the invention, said vertical partition wall is preferably made of metal. Furthermore, said slots for the entry of cooling air into the cooling section which are formed in said vertical partition wall are preferably arranged in the area of the outer wall of the refrigerating appliance.
- The invention will be more readily understood on reading the following description with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
-
FIG. 1 a front view of a refrigerating appliance according to the invention, with the door removed; -
FIG. 2 a cross-sectional view of the refrigerating appliance along the line II-II ofFIG. 1 ; -
FIG. 3 a cross-sectional view of the refrigerating appliance along the line III-III ofFIG. 1 ; and -
FIG. 4 a cross-sectional view of the refrigerating appliance along the line IV-IV ofFIG. 1 . - A refrigerating appliance according to the invention has a
body 1 which is closed by adoor 1′ and comprises acooling section 2 being optionally divided intoseveral compartments horizontal partition walls freezing unit 10 arranged in thecooling section 2 and closed by adoor 10′ and comprising afreezing section 12 enclosed by means of acasing 11. Saidpartition walls unit 10 is preferably arranged under the ceiling and by the wall of thecooling section 2. An ice makingdevice 14 and anevaporator 15 for cooling down the cooling air are located in thefreezing section 12 and directly underceiling 13 of thefreezing unit 10. Saidevaporator 15 is arranged in the interspace between aback 16 of the refrigerating appliance and avertical partition wall 17 in thefreezing unit 10.Fan 18 is arranged in the upper area of thevertical partition wall 17 which divides the air stream A cooled down at theevaporator 15 into the air stream B flowing around the ice makingdevice 14 and cooling down the freezingsection 12 simultaneously and into air stream C which cools down thecooling section 2. After the ice makingdevice 14 and thefreezing section 12 are cooled down the cold air stream B returns through aslot 19 in the lower area of thepartition wall 17 into said interspace where theevaporator 15 is located. - Horizontally spaced from the
back 16 of the refrigerating appliance, there is arranged over the entire height apartition wall 20 made of a material with a good thermal conductivity, preferably of metal. In width, saidpartition wall 20 extends over the entire width of the refrigerating appliance only in the area under thefreezing unit 10, whereas the width ofsaid partition wall 20 equals, in the height of thefreezing unit 10, only the distance between thefreezing unit 10 and the body 1 (cf.FIG. 4 ). Thus, a channel for a cooling air flow is created between said back 16 and saidpartition wall 20, said channel being divided into twovertical channels vertical web 23 extending from thefreezing unit 10 to the area under thepartition wall 5. The firstvertical channel 21 extends in height from thelowermost compartment 9, with which it is connected, up to the top of the refrigerating appliance, and in width only from thefreezing unit 10 to thebody 1, whereas the secondvertical channel 22 extends from thelowermost compartment 9, with which it is connected, up to thefreezing unit 10, and in width only for the amount of the width of thefreezing unit 10. - The
partition wall 20 is formed in eachcompartment vertical channel 21 with an array ofrespective slots partition wall 20 is formed in the area of the secondvertical channel 22 with an array ofrespective slots partition wall freezing section 12 is connected by means of a connectingchannel 30 to the firstvertical channel 21, a flap being arranged at the aperture of the connectingchannel 30, by means of which the amount of cold air is controlled which enters thevertical channel 21 from thefreezing section 12. The amount of the air stream A is divided by means of adeflector 32 to the part B cooling down thefreezing section 12, and the part C streaming through the connectingchannel 30 into the firstvertical channel 21, said deflector being arranged in thefreezing unit 10 at the outlet side of thefan 18. - Thus, the cold air stream C passing through said
flap 31 and the connectingchannel 30 into the firstvertical channel 21 travels downwards over saidchannel 21 and enters through saidslots compartment cooling section 2 where it cools down the foodstuff located therein. In order to prevent in theupper compartment 6, freezing of the drinks located directly next to thepartition wall 20, the latter is lined by means of aninsulation 33 over the entire height of thechannel 21 from the area of the cold air stream C entrance into the firstvertical channel 21 to thedischarging slots 24. The air stream cooling down the foodstuff flows between thedoor 1′ of the refrigerating appliance and eachpartition wall lowermost compartment 9, and from there, through theslots vertical channel 22 and further into the interspace between theback 16 and thepartition wall 17 where theevaporator 15 is located, where it joins the air stream B and cools down again, and afterwards the entire process repeats itself. According to the invention, it is preferable that the slots formed in saidvertical partition wall 20 are located in the area of the outer wall of the refrigerating appliance. The temperature in thecooling section 2 and in thefreezing unit 12, as well as the fan are controlled in a manner known per se and not shown in detail.
