- the fixing element 98 fixes the cable extension unit 17 to the household appliance door unit 24 (cf. FIG. 4).
- the fixing element 98 is preferably designed as a plug-in connection and/or snap-in connection element.
- the cable extension unit 17 can be slipped onto the household appliance door unit 24 and/or latched to the household appliance door unit 24 .
- the cable extension unit 17 can have further fixing elements which fix the cable extension unit 17 to the household appliance door unit 24 in the assembled state. ren, such as frictional and / or form-fitting connection elements, for example at least one screw connection element and / or other plug and / or snap-in connection elements, and / or a material connection element.
- the cable routing unit 17 has a first cable duct 60 and a second cable duct 66, with the cable 14 being able to be routed either through the first cable duct 60 or the second cable duct 66 to the household appliance door unit 24.
- the cable 14 is arranged in the first cable duct 60.
- the cable 14 is arranged in the second cable duct 66 in the assembled state.
- the first cable duct 60 and the second cable duct 66 are at least partially open.
- the first cable duct 60 and the second cable duct 66 are arranged along the vertical direction 38 above the upper narrow side 86 .
- the first cable duct 60 and the second cable duct 66 could be arranged below the lower narrow side (not shown).
- FIGS. 4 and 5 make it clear that the cable extension unit 17 has at least one cable duct section 36 for at least essentially parallel routing of the cable 14 to the narrow side 86.
- the cable extension unit 17 comprises at least one cable fixing element 99.
- the cable extension unit 17 has a multiplicity of cable fixing elements 99, only one being provided with a reference symbol for the sake of clarity (cf. FIGS. 4 and 5).
- the cable fixing elements 99 are arranged on the first cable duct 60 and the second cable duct 66 .
- the cable fixing elements 99 are provided to protect the cable 14 from falling down and/or being detached from the first cable duct 60 and the second cable duct 66 .
- the first cable duct 60 and the second cable duct 66 each have a separate cable duct entry 110, 112, the first cable duct 60 having a first cable duct entry 110 and the second cable duct 66 having a second cable duct entry 112 (see Figures 4 and 5).
- FIGS. 4 and 5 show that the first cable duct 60 and the second cable duct 66 have a common cable duct exit 68 which is arranged asymmetrically with respect to a width direction 32 of the cable extension unit 17 .
- the cable 14 can be guided from the first cable duct entry 110 in the first cable duct 60 to the cable duct exit 68 .
- the cable 14 can be routed from the second cable duct entry 112 in the second cable duct 66 to the cable duct exit 68 in the case of a door hinge change.
- a first cable duct length of the first cable duct 60 and a second cable duct length of the second cable duct 66 are at least essentially identical to one another.
- the second cable duct 66 includes a compensating element 72 for compensating for a cable length.
- the compensating element 72 is provided for the purpose of accommodating the cable 14 at least in sections, specifically an excess cable length of the cable 14 within the cable extension unit 17, at least in the installed state. In the assembled state, the cable 14 can be arranged in the second cable duct 66 and in the compensating element 72 (not shown).
- the compensating element 72 has a semicircular shape (cf. FIG. 4).
- the cable extension unit 17 has a connector housing holder 80 for a connector 82 that can be connected to a mating connector 84 of the household appliance door 20 (cf. FIGS. 4 and 5).
- the connector housing holder 80 is formed at least partially in one piece with the cable duct outlet 68 .
- the connector housing holder 80 also includes fixing elements, which are designed analogously to the fixing element 99 already described and are therefore not discussed further at this point.
- the plug 82 is arranged in the plug housing holder 80 before the cable extension unit 17 is arranged on the narrow side 86 . It can be seen in FIG.
