Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cooling device that comprises a shelf enabling effective utilization of the article storage volume.
  • the stepped shelves used in cooling devices comprise of two support surfaces one being at a higher level and the other at a lower level.
  • the shelf is mounted within the body in such a way that one of the support surfaces stands on the right side and the other one on the left side thereby having one edge of each support surface secured to a shelf canal on the side wall of the body.
  • Each support surface on different levels is supported only from one edge, since the stepped shelf having support surfaces on different levels from right to left is mounted to a shelf canal on each side wall when looked at the cooling device from the front perspective. From frontal view, the edges of the support surfaces, which are situated on the front and the rear side of the body and joined with each other by means of a step, are not supported by the side walls. This causes rigidity problem and may lead to flexure and imbalance especially in situations whereby the load on the shelf is excessive.
  • the stepped shelf has a rigid structure.
  • the utilization of stepped shelf may not always be required during use. Besides, in order to make it possible to change the direction of the step, all the articles on the shelf have to be removed and be replaced again.
  • the adjustable shelf comprises a platform and a support member slidably attached to the platform and supports the platform by means of leaning to another shelf or to the body wall.
  • the part of the adjustable shelf, under which tall bottles and articles could be placed is folded in order to enable the placement of the tall bottles and articles on the shelf below the adjustable shelf.
  • folding the shelf causes a decrease in the carrying surface area of the shelf.
  • the aim of the present invention is the realization of a cooling device comprising user friendly shelves which enable effective use of article storage space inside the body and provide diverse utilization options to the user.
  • a cooling device realized in order to attain the aim of the present invention explicated in the first claim and the respective claims thereof, comprises a rod in the form of a wire, which is bent into a "U" shape, shifts the mobile carrier in a parallel way to the plane of the fixed carrier when rotated around its own axis and places the mobile carrier in a position above or below the plane of the fixed carrier by means of oscillation movement.
  • the rod When rotated, the rod also brings the mobile carrier, which is below or above the fixed carrier, to the same level as the fixed carrier.
  • the shelf is provided to be supported and at the same time the mobile carrier is enabled to shift to three different positions in balance without any requirement to remove the articles on it.
  • Both carriers are connected to the rod by means of the grip mechanism.
  • Grip mechanism comprises a retainer, which embeds the rod wrapping partially and enables the movement mechanism to rotate around its own axis, and a guide, which lies on the retainer vertically and enables the mobile carrier to move back and forth on a horizontal line.
  • the mobile carrier can be pushed in or pulled out by means of the guide, while the rod embedded in the carrier is rotating around its own axis.
  • the mobile carrier is enabled to stay in balance at the same level with the fixed carrier.
  • the second support and the arms are located on the same horizontal plane when the mobile carrier and the fixed carrier stay at the same level.
  • the second support is located above the plane of the fixed carrier and is as much as the length of an arm.
  • the second support is located below the plane of the fixed carrier and the distance in between is again as much as the length of an arm.
  • the fixed and the mobile carrier are in plate form.
  • the fixed and the mobile carrier are formed by bringing the wires close together to form a mesh.
  • the present invention enables a shelf comprising of two parts, one with a mobile carrier and the other with a fixed carrier to be used in three different positions. Flexible use of the shelves provides both user satisfaction and effective storage in the cooling device.
  • a cooling device realized in order to attain the aim of the present invention is illustrated in the attached figures, where: [0023] Figure 1 - is the perspective view of the shelf in a cooling device, when a fixed carrier and a mobile carrier are at the same level.
  • Figure 2 - is the perspective view of the mobile carrier in the cooling device being pulled out.
  • Figure 3 - is the perspective view of the shelf in the cooling device, when the mobile carrier is in the upper position.
  • Figure 4 - is the perspective view of the shelf in the cooling device, when the mobile carrier is in the lower position.
  • Figure 5 - is the perspective view of a grip mechanism.
  • Figure 6 - is the schematic view of a rod.
  • the cooling device (1) comprises a body (2), at least one shelf (4), which is disposed in the body vertically, whereon articles are placed, and which comprises one fixed carrier (5) and one mobile carrier (6); and shelf supports (3) placed on the body side walls oppositely carrying the shelves
  • the rod (7) furthermore brings the mobile carrier (6) below or above the plane of the fixed carrier (5) to the same level as the plane of the fixed carrier (5).
  • the cooling device (1) comprises two simultaneously moving rods (7) placed under the shelf (4) parallel to each other. Thus, more balanced movement and support of the shelves (4) are provided.
  • the rod (7) comprises a first support (14), which supports the fixed carrier
  • the cooling device (1) furthermore comprises one or more than one grip mechanism (13), which enables the fixed and the mobile carriers (5 and 6) to be mounted on the rod (7).
  • the grip mechanism (13) comprises a retainer (8), which is mounted on the rod (7) and embeds the wire-shaped rod (7) during the rotation movement and a guide (9) on every retainer (8), which lies vertically to the direction of the retainer (8) and is mounted on the fixed and mobile carrier (5 and 6) ( Figure 5).
  • Direction of the retainer (8) is the same as that of rod (7).
  • the guide (9) enables especially the mobile carrier (6) to move back and forth on a horizontal line with the pulling and repelling force applied by the user.
  • the cooling device (1) furthermore comprises one or more than one lock mechanism (10), which enables the mobile carrier (6) and the fixed carrier (5) to stand at the same level in balance.
  • the lock mechanism (10) comprises a locking canal (11), which is located on the adjacent edge of the fixed carrier (5) to the mobile carrier (6), and a protrusion-formed locking pin (12) located on the adjacent edge of the fixed carrier (5) to the mobile carrier (6), which fits in the locking canal (11) when the mobile carrier (6) and the fixed carrier (5) are at the same level.
  • the fixed and mobile carriers (5 and 6) can be used as a flat shelf (4) when the both are on the same plane.
  • the arms (16) and the second support (15), connecting the arms (16) lying interjacently therebetween, are located on the same horizontal plane, when the fixed and mobile carriers (5 and 6) are at the same level.
  • the mobile carrier (6) is also located on the same plane without a level difference with the fixed carrier (5).
  • the locking pin (12) is seated in the locking canal (11) ( Figure 1).
  • the mobile carrier (6) moves in the guide (9) and moves towards the user. This movement continues until the locking pin (12) is released from the locking canal (11).
  • the gap that occurs between the rear wall of the cooling device (1) and the rear edge of the mobile carrier (6) enables the mobile carrier (6) to rotate with the rod (7).
  • This gap is enough for the locking pin (12) to be released from the locking canal (11) ( Figure 2).
  • the user does not pull the mobile carrier (6) but applies a force upwards to lift the mobile carrier (6) when the locking pin (12) is released from the locking canal (11).
  • the rod (7) rotates around its own axis and the mobile carrier (6) is shifted upwards in a position parallel to the plane of the fixed carrier (5), making an oscillation movement.
  • the second support (15) heightens by means of the arms (16), when the rod (7) is rotated almost 90 degrees. This causes the mobile carrier (6) mounted on the second support (15) to heighten as much as the length of an arm (16).
  • the mobile carrier (6) When the mobile carrier (6) is desired to be at the same level as the fixed carrier (5), it is rotated 90 degrees downwards if it is above the plane of the fixed carrier (5); on the other hand, it is rotated 90 degrees upwards if it is below the plane of the fixed carrier (5). As a result of this movement, the mobile carrier (6) is brought to the same horizontal level as the fixed carrier (5). However, in this situation the mobile carrier (6) is located in front of the fixed carrier (5) at a distance equal to that of the gap, created as a result of the user pulling mobile carrier (6) frontwards initially. When the mobile carrier (6) is pushed by the user, the gap is removed, therefore both the mobile carrier (6) is brought to the same level as the fixed carrier
  • the fixed and the mobile carrier (5 and 6) are in plate form.
  • the fixed and the mobile carrier (5 and 6) are formed by means of bringing the wires close together to form a mesh.
  • these wires are seated in the guides (9).
  • various combinations are created in order to provide alternative loading possibilities to the user.
  • a two-pieced shelf (4) is provided to be used in three positions in steps. Furthermore, not requiring the articles placed on the shelves to be removed during transpositions provides both time saving and ease of use.
