Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a refrigerator with two separately air-conditioned, closed by a same door compartments.
  • an elastic hollow profile is usually attached to one of the door edge facing a partition extending between the compartments, which is slightly compressed with the door closed between the edge of the partition and the door, thereby providing a seal between the subjects.
  • the ends of such a hollow profile are welded shut, or they are open, but hidden, by abutting non-elastic housing parts, in particular side walls of the housing.
  • the hollow profile facing the inner door surface is usually not flat over the entire length of the hollow profile. Especially in its edge area, i. near the ends of the hollow profile, it is usually more or less contoured. If the hollow profile is not able to follow the contours of the inside of the door exactly, the sealing effect of the hollow profile is unsatisfactory.
  • a hollow profile with welded ends or with open ends is often aesthetically unsatisfactory, especially if a gap remains open due to manufacturing tolerances or shrinkage between an open end of the hollow profile and an opposing surface.
  • Object of the present invention is to provide a refrigerator with separately air-conditioned and insulated by means of a hollow profile compartments, which ensures both a satisfactory appearance and a satisfactory sealing effect between the subjects.
  • the object is achieved in that in a refrigerator with separately air-conditioned, closed by a same door compartments, in which a running between the compartments partition on an edge facing the door an elastic hollow profile carries, at least one open end of the hollow profile is closed by an elastic closing body.
  • the shape of the end body which is preferably produced by injection molding, can be largely freely adapted to the inner contour of the door to be sealed. If the closing body is formed at least approximately wedge-like in cross-section, ie on its outside facing the door has a directed away from the door contour, not only a particularly aesthetically pleasing closure of the interface is provided on the hollow profile, but also by the pointed cap-like design of the end piece a respective end of the hollow profile stabilizing effect achieved.
  • the closing body is connected to the hollow profile by a pin engaging in the hollow space of the hollow profile.
  • the visible part of the end body can be kept short, and it can be created a flush transition between the outer surface of the hollow profile and the end body.
  • the closure body has a cavity.
  • this cavity can communicate with a cavity of the hollow profile. But it can also be open to the outside, wherein such an opening to be inconspicuous, preferably facing the hollow profile-bearing edge of the partition wall.
  • the invention is preferably applicable to a refrigerator whose door has a transparent window through which the hollow profile and possibly also the closing body is visible from the outside, especially in a bottle storage cabinet.
  • FIG. 1 shows a schematic vertical section through an inventive refrigeration device.
  • FIG. 2 shows a horizontal section through the refrigerator of FIG. 1 along the plane N-II;
  • FIG. 3 shows a perspective view of a seal composed of a hollow profile of two end bodies;
  • FIG. 4 shows a section through the seal of FIG. 3 along the plane IV-IV of FIG. 3;
  • FIG. 1 shows a horizontal section through the refrigerator of FIG. 1 along the plane N-II;
  • FIG. 3 shows a perspective view of a seal composed of a hollow profile of two end bodies;
  • FIG. 4 shows a section through the seal of FIG. 3 along the plane IV-IV of FIG. 3;
  • FIG. 5 shows a longitudinal section through one end of the seal along the plane V-V of Fig. 4.
  • FIG. 7 shows a cross section through the end body of the seal of FIG. 6 along the plane VII-VII.
  • Fig. 1 is a schematic vertical section through a refrigerator according to the present invention.
  • a horizontal partition 4 extends between independently air-conditioned compartments 2, 3.
  • the compartments 2, 3 are closed by a common door 5.
  • the door 5 comprises a frame 6, in which an insulating glass pane 7 is enclosed. Through the insulating glass pane 7, the interior of the two compartments 2, 3 and also the partition 4 between them is visible.
  • a seal 8 extends between the door 5 and the front edge of the partition wall 4th
  • the seal 8 comprises three parts, an elastic hollow section 9 of approximately semicircular cross section, the flat back is glued to the front edge of the partition and which is exposed over the entire in the frame 6 Width of the insulating glass pane 7 extends, and two elastic closing body 10, which engage between the partition wall 4 and the frame 6.
  • the closing body 10 are preferably made of the same plastic or rubber material as the hollow section 9 and also have the same color as this, but in contrast to the hollow section 9 is not extruded, but injection molded.
  • the shape of the end body 10 is characterized very variable, they can be shaped as needed to match the inner contour of the door 5 and its profiles 6.
  • the closing bodies 10 are shown in a wedge shape for the sake of simplicity; it is obvious, that depending on the shape of the inside of the door other shapes may be better suited to achieve a good sealing effect.
  • the closing body 10 each carry a hollow and occupied with rotating lamellae 12 pin 1 1, which engages positively in the inner cavity of the hollow section 9.
  • An inner cavity 13 of the end body 10 communicates through the hollow pin 11 with the cavity of the hollow profile 9, so that when the end body 10 between the partition 4 and the door 5 is compressed , Air can escape into the hollow section 9 into it.
  • FIGS. 6 and 7 show sections of a closure body 10 according to a second embodiment of the invention.
  • the closing body 10 is open on its rear side, towards the dividing wall 4, so that, when the seal 8 is compressed when closing the door 5, air escapes from the seal 8 via the closing body 10 into the compartments 2, 3.
  • the open back gives the end body 10 a particularly high flexibility, since under the pressure of the door, the upper and lower edges of the end body 10 can escape up and down.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil de réfrigération comprenant plusieurs compartiments à climatisation séparée et fermés par une même porte. Une paroi de séparation (4) s'étendant entre les compartiments est pourvue, sur un bord orienté vers la porte, d'un profilé creux (9) élastique. Au moins une extrémité ouverte du profilé creux (9) est fermée par un élément de fermeture (10) élastique.
