Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a deep-drawn inner container for a refrigerator, in particular a household refrigerator, with an open front and a deep-drawn in the depth direction of the inner container main cavity, and an upwardly deep-drawn protuberance on a ceiling of the main cavity, and a refrigerator having such an inner container.
  • provision may be made for the inner container of the lower storage compartment of a combination refrigerating appliance, since an intermediate wall between the storage compartments at its front edge, in order to provide sufficient space for adjacent door seals, must be stronger than for a thermal isolation of the two compartments from each other is required.
  • a protuberance on the ceiling additional volume can be added to the inner container of the lower storage compartment.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a refrigeration device with a deep-drawn inner container, which allows the attachment of a refrigerated goods in the vicinity of a ceiling, although in this a protuberance is deep-drawn up.
  • the object is achieved by having at an inner container for a refrigerator, in particular a household refrigerator, with an open front and a deep-drawn in the depth direction of the inner container main cavity, and with an upwardly thermoformed protuberance on a ceiling of the main cavity at least one support surface for a built-in part whose Distance from the ceiling is smaller than the height of the protuberance, as the main cavity is formed by deep drawing in the depth direction. Since the support surface extends in the depth direction of the inner container, no movable slide on the stamp is required for their production. Therefore, the recess can be formed close to the ceiling of the inner container without coming into conflict with a protuberance forming ceiling sliders or its drive means.
  • Such a bearing surface can be easily realized, in particular, on a rear wall of the inner container or in its surroundings.
  • the support surface is formed in a transition zone between a rear wall and a side wall of the inner container.
  • the bearing surface is preferably part of a recess of the inner container that is open to the main cavity. This recess can restrict the freedom of movement of a tip engaging in it in both the height and in the width direction of the inner container.
  • Subject of the invention is also a refrigerator, which has an inner container with the features specified above.
  • the adapter In order to stably support a built-in part in such a refrigeration device, it may still be held by an adapter beyond the support on the at least one support surface, at a support point of the inner container. Since the adapter is not subject to the restrictions of the shaping due to the technique of thermoforming, it can ensure a reliable support of the mounting part with simple attachment. While the adapter is not or only with difficulty from the inner container demountable, the supported by the adapter insert can be easily removed.
  • the assembly of the adapter at the correct height on the inner container can be ensured by the support point is arranged in a recess of the side wall and the adapter is height-adjusted by engagement in the recess.
  • a tight fit of the adapter on the inner container can be achieved by screwing to the support point.
  • the adapter itself, which also rests on the support point and extends along a side wall of the inner container.
  • the built-in part may comprise a plate fixed to the adapter.
  • the adapter may have an elastically deflectable finger which tapers obliquely from above to the top of the plate.
  • the finger is preferably located adjacent one end of the adapter opposite the end of the adapter supported on the support surface.
  • the plate can easily lock on the adapter by pivoting about an axis adjacent to the supported end.
  • the adapter may be in one piece, for example in the form of a frame surrounding the plate.
  • the plate is supported by two adapters mounted on two opposite sides of the inner container.
  • the refrigerated goods carrier In order to be able to efficiently use a compartment of small height, which is divided off from the refrigerated goods carrier, under the ceiling of the inner container, it is expedient for the refrigerated goods carrier to comprise a pull-out tray.
  • a stop contour can be formed on the adapter. Furthermore, two can each other opposite adapter having two converging flanks, which center the shell in its retracted stop position.
  • the created by the protuberance on the ceiling of the inner container free volume can be conveniently used to accommodate an evaporator, in particular a finned evaporator.
  • Fig. 1 shows a schematic cross section through a designed as a refrigerator and freezer combination refrigerator, in the body 1, two separate storage zones, for example, a normal refrigerated compartment 2 and a freezer compartment 3, are formed.
  • the body 1 is assembled in a conventional manner from outer wall elements 4 made of sheet metal, plastic and / or hard fiber material and two plastic deep-drawn inner containers 5, 6. While the inner container 5 of the normal refrigeration compartment is undercuts, so that its formation a deep-drawing tool with a one-piece , in the depth direction of the body 1 displaceable punch sufficient, the inner container 6 of the freezer compartment 3 on its ceiling 12 an upwardly directed protuberance 7, which is transverse to the cutting plane of the Fig. 1 essentially over the entire width of the inner container 6 extends.
  • an at least two-part punch is used, with a substantially cuboidal main part, which forms a main cavity 6a of the inner container 6, and an upwardly extendable from the main part ceiling slide, which forms the protuberance 7.
  • Due to the protuberance 7 is a horizontal partition 8 between the compartments 2, 3 at a front edge, right in the figure, considerably stronger than in a central and rearward area.
  • the large wall thickness at the front edge of the partition wall 8 is required in order to have a sufficient contact surface for seals of the doors (not shown) of the two compartments 2, 3 available.
  • the wall thickness is determined by the requirement for the most efficient possible isolation of the compartments 2, 3 and thus low energy consumption of the device with a large volume of the compartments 2, 3 and accordingly the smallest possible total volume of insulation material between the layers Inner containers 5, 6 and the outer wall elements 4 represent.
  • the thickness of the dividing wall 8 is therefore in its central rear region, above the protuberance 7, generally smaller than that of the rear wall 9 or of side walls of the body 1.
  • the protuberance 7 is separated from the rest of the freezer compartment 3 by a partition 10 of low thickness.
  • a horizontal front portion of the intermediate wall 10 extends approximately at the level of a lower edge 11 of the ceiling 12 of the inner container 6.
  • a gap 13 between the lower edge 11 and a front edge of the intermediate wall 10 allows the flow of air from the freezer compartment 3 to a in the undercut 7 housed evaporator 14, which is formed in the present case as a finned evaporator.
  • the air flow is driven by a fan 15 which is adjacent to the rear wall 9 partly housed in the protuberance 7, partly behind a sloping portion of the intermediate wall 10 and sucked through the gap 13 and the evaporator 14 cooled air in a distribution channel 16 presses, the rear wall 9 runs downwards and is separated from the freezer compartment 3 by a vertical intermediate wall 17 with outlet openings 18 distributed therein.
  • the freezer compartment 3 here contains three pull-out boxes 19, 20, 21, of which the uppermost, 19, has a lower height than the protuberance 7.
  • a flat drawer can be used to accommodate small-scale, sensitive frozen food, such as berries, herbal packs or cold packs.
  • the pull-out box 19 is located in present case on a stationary plate 22, which covers the underlying drawer 20 in its retracted position.
  • the plate 22 is supported on both side walls of the inner container 6 via adapters 23, one of which is in Fig. 2 in an exploded perspective view can be seen.
  • a shallow recess 25 extends in the horizontal direction.
  • the bottoms of the pairwise opposed recesses 25 are divergent toward the front of the body 1, albeit at a smaller angle than the side walls 24.
  • a front end of the recesses 25 is one Opening in the bottom of the recess 25 cut in which a backing piece 26 is arranged with a recess for anchoring a fastening means, here with a blind hole 27 threaded for fastening a screw.
  • a forwardly open recess 29 is formed on the side facing away from the viewer an outwardly into the between Inner container 6 and outer wall elements attached insulation material directed projection corresponds.
  • the cross section of the recess 29 in front view corresponds approximately to a lying T.
  • the recess 29 is provided to receive a complementary projection 30 at the rear end of the plastic injection molded adapter 23 in the vertical direction and in the width direction of the body 1 in a form-fitting manner.
  • a base plate 31 of the adapter 24, from which protrudes the projection 30, follows the contour of the rounding zone 28 and the recess 25; the installation height of the base plate 31 is predetermined by their engagement in the recess 29 and the recess 25.
  • the adapter 23 is fixedly mounted by, after its placement in the recess 29 and the recess 25, a screw (not shown) is screwed through a screw hole 32 at the front end of the base plate 31 in the blind thread 27.
  • the base plate 31 From the base plate 31 extends in the depth direction of the body 1 elongated support web 33, which is provided to support the plate 22. At its rear end, the support web 33 passes into a groove 34, which receives a rear corner of the plate 22 in a form-fitting manner. By an upright web 35 at the front end of the support web 33, the plate 22 is fixed in the depth direction.
  • an obliquely downwardly projecting from the base plate 31 elastic finger 36 is formed.
  • the width of the plate 22 is dimensioned so that when it first engages with their rear corners in their grooves 34 of the opposing adapter 23 and then their front edge is pivoted downward, the fingers 36 of the two adapters 23 are pressed aside elastically and swing back when the plate 22 rests on the support webs 33.
  • the plate is secured in position on the adapter 23 and can only be removed again when the fingers 36 are pushed aside.
  • a projection 37 is formed at the free lower end of the fingers 36 which rests in the assembled state on a lateral edge of the plate 22.
  • Support strips 38 made of a rigid plastic are arranged lying along the lateral edges of the plate 22 to provide a direct contact between the plate 22 and the in Fig. 2 not shown, slidable on the plate 22 drawer 19 to prevent.
  • the shims 38 prevent the formation of marks on the plate 22 by the movement of the pull-out box 19. By also reducing the contact surface on which the bottom of the box 19 rests, they prevent the probability that it freezes, or in the case of Freezing to release the box 19 required force.
  • Fig. 1 An above the support web 33 of the base plate 31 projecting angular projection 39 serves as a stop, the in Fig. 1 shown fully inserted into the freezer compartment 3 stop position of the pull-out box 19 defined by contact with the rear wall.
  • the stop position is set so that in her the drawer 19 and the partition 10 do not touch directly.
  • a gap 40 remains ( Fig. 1 ), can pass through the cold air over the drawer 19 along.
