Definitions
- the present invention relates to a refrigerator and / or freezer having at least one body and at least one door or flap pivotable relative to the body, the door or flap having a first region bounded by a circumferential seal when the door or flap is closed. and wherein the door or flap has at least one second area outside this first area.
- a seal for insulating completion of the refrigerator or freezer compartment In such refrigerators and / or freezers is usually provided on the inside of the door or flap, a seal for insulating completion of the refrigerator or freezer compartment.
- the door has a projecting portion which is above or below the limited by the peripheral seal area.
- this protruding region can serve to cover a region of the body when the door or flap is closed, resulting in a visually appealing and uniform appearance of the device.
- the present invention has the object, a cooling and / or freezer of the type mentioned in such a way that the space available for receiving functional elements, such as bearings, dampers and the like available space over prior art devices is increased.
- the invention is therefore based on the idea to use said second area as a receiving area for one or more functional elements, which has the advantage that the space in which these functional elements are housed in previously known devices, is now otherwise available , The unused in prior art devices, over the first region protruding second region is thus used according to the invention for the arrangement of one or more functional elements.
- This receiving element may form a fixed part of the door or flap or even releasably, for example by a positive connection, by a screw connection or by an adhesive bond and the like with the door in connection.
- the receiving element can be embodied, for example, as a plastic part in which areas are arranged in which the one or more of the said functional elements can be received in a suitable manner.
- the receiving element has at least one recess in which a bearing or parts of a bearing are accommodated for the pivotable arrangement of the door or flap.
- the receiving element has one or more areas in which means for influencing the movement of the door or flap are arranged. These may be, for example, closing dampers, closing aids, etc.
- the receiving element has a length which substantially corresponds to the width or height of the door or the flap.
- the receiving element has a depth which corresponds substantially to the depth of the door or the flap.
- the receiving element may extend in the vertical direction, for example above and / or below the first region of a door or for example also laterally of the first region of a flap.
- the invention is not limited thereto.
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of the upper end portion of a door of a refrigerator or freezer with above the seal arranged plug and
- Figure 2 a perspective view of the male part in the disassembled state.
- Figure 1 shows by the reference numeral 10, the door of a refrigerator or freezer in its upper portion of the wall facing the refrigerator compartment inside.
- the door is pivotally received at its top and bottom, each with a bearing 20 on a body, not shown, of the device.
- a circumferential seal is indicated, which rests in the closed state of the door 10 on an end face of the body and in this way closes the area to be cooled.
- the seal 40 is encircling and delimits a first region 16 located within the sealing region.
- the second region 18, that is the region which, when the door or flap is closed, is not directly adjacent to the cooling element. or freezer compartment adjacent.
- the region 18 thus projects beyond the region 16 and covers, for example, a frontal body region when the door 10 is closed.
- the bearing 20 is located in the second region 18.
- a receiving element 50 designed as a plug-in part, which is shown in FIG.
- the receiving element 50 has receptacles 14, 14 'for receiving the bearing 20 in its two end regions.
- the receiving element 50 is designed as a plastic part, which in the second rich 18 above the area surrounded by the seal 16 can be used, as can be seen from Figure 1.
- the receiving element 50 has a space or cavity into which various functional elements can be inserted.
- means for influencing the closing behavior such as closing dampers, may be mentioned as closing aids of the door, as indicated in FIG. 1 by the reference numeral 80.
- Another example is the inclusion of a cable 30, which is partially in the area formed by the receiving element 50, as can be seen from Figure 1.
- the bearing 20 consists of a bearing pin which extends vertically downwards from the bearing arm 21, which is fixedly arranged on the body of the device.
- the journal is rotatably mounted in a bearing bush 22 which is not fixed to the door in connection, but can be removed from this.
- the connection between receptacle 14, 14 'of the receiving element 50 and bearing bush 22 is thus carried out detachable.
- the bearing bush 22 is inserted from above or on the underside of the door from below into the respective end face 12 of the door 10.
- the cable extends over the bearing arm 21, over the bearing journal (not illustrated) extending beyond the bearing arm 21 and over the bearing bush 22.
- the cable 30 is guided in the bearing bush 22 such that it is independent of the angle of rotation the door always exits the bearing bush 22 in a defined position.
- the receiving element 50 can be arranged above or below the first region 16 of the door 10 and / or also adjacent to this region 16.
- the cable 30 has a plug part 32 in its end region located in the door 10. This is detachably connected to a further plug part of a cable section, which leads, for example, to a display in the door.
- the guided over the bearing 20 cable section is detachably connected to a display or the like or a cable arranged thereon.
- the present invention makes it possible to make sensible use of the area 18 of the door or flap projecting beyond the said first area 16.
- the second region 18 may extend above, below and / or also adjacent to the first region 16.
