  • a shaping directed towards the heat-insulating material is provided in the inner lining.
  • the deep-drawing process is carried out by inserting a male part into the molding, this molding being given the shape of a cup, with a smooth wall, for the perfect extraction of the mold during the demoulding process. Later in the manufacturing process reinforcing elements are coupled to the molding, in which then the thread of the fastening screw is screwed. These reinforcing elements are pressed into the molding and are fixed with adhesives or adhesive tapes that they can slip or fall out during the foaming process or when tightening the component. If the position of the Reinforcement body is not correct, can not be screwed, and in this case, the apparatus must be re-processed, which increases the time and cost of production.
  • the invention relates to a refrigerator, which can be obtained in a simplified and cheaper manufacturing process in comparison with the cited prior art.
  • a refrigerator with a housing which comprises a covered with a heat-insulating material inner lining of plastic, which has a cup-shaped, directed to the heat-insulating material formation.

  • the molding has on its lateral surface at least one projection on which the receiving portion engages positively.
  • the protrusion on the molding remains marked.
  • the projection can also be designed as a retractable pawl on the female part of the mold, and leaves in this case a recess in the form of a groove in the molding. This return is later used to lock the receiving portion of the reinforcing body.
  • the holding element remains positively secured in the manner of a clip on the inner lining.
  • the screw can be inserted self-tapping in the hole.
  • the inventive solution for the mounting body which is referred to as a support member, a suitable mounting option for series production in the industry for household electrical appliances created, which is characterized by a large positional accuracy, which by the technical Design is due to deep drawing of the cup-shaped formation in the inner lining. Thanks to the cup-shaped protruding shape, which is helpful in attaching the reinforcing body, the use of adhesives is not required. In addition, basically the quality impairments of such a solution for the attachment of the reinforcing body are largely excluded.
  • This type of attachment of a reinforcing body can be additionally automated at exceptionally low cost in the support devices used in the production, so that the manual labor or the costly reworking by manufacturing personnel can be omitted.
  • the cup-shaped formation is equipped at the bottom of the cup with a centering and that carried out on the lateral surface receiving portion is designed in the form of a hollow pin whose central axis at least largely coincides with the central axis of the prefabricated bore and with the center axis of the centering aid.
  • fastening means in the form of screws can always engage exactly in the prefabricated bore of the mounting portion in the reinforcing body, without the use of costly and time-consuming positioning devices would be necessary in this case to the introduction of the fastening means in the form of Mark screws.
  • the hollow pin consists of elastic tongues, the tongue roots are arranged in the mounting portion.
  • the hollow pin consisting of elastic individual sections has the advantage that it can be used without problems on the cup-shaped molding, even if this molding has an expanded cross section due to manufacturing deviations.
  • the reinforcing body can be arranged with particular accuracy in its correct end position on the cup-shaped formation, in particular in the case of fully automatic production, if it is provided according to an advantageous development of the subject invention that the elastic Tongues are provided on their tongue tip with at least one radially arranged stop element, which bears against the inner lining.
  • the patch on the shaping reinforcing body is rotationally secured in a particularly secure manner when provided according to a further advantageous embodiment of the subject invention that the mounting portion is provided with means which can cooperate form-fitting manner with the heat-insulating material and secure the reinforcing body against rotation.
  • the mounting portion is provided with means which can cooperate form-fitting manner with the heat-insulating material and secure the reinforcing body against rotation.
  • the means provided in the attachment portion are configured as ribs, which project radially on the lateral surface thereof and extend in the direction of its longitudinal axis.
  • the cup-shaped formation and the reinforcing body can be produced particularly simply if it is provided according to a preferred embodiment of the subject invention that the cup-shaped formation and the reinforcing body have a circular cross-section. With this embodiment, a particularly simple mounting solution is achieved at the same time.
  • the shape is frusto-conical, which facilitates demolding during the deep-drawing process of the inner lining.
  • the projection extends to the heat-insulating material and the receiving portion has an edge which projects to the molding and can engage the reinforcing body in the molding.
  • the elastic tongues extend over the protrusion with the edge disposed at its end, bending to overcome the protrusion and then returning to the starting position to prevent disassembly of the reinforcing body.
  • the projection may, however, also extend to the heat-insulating material and the receiving portion has in this case a receptacle to receive the projection, thus achieving a similar result as in the former case, but with smaller tolerances between the receiving portion and the molding.
  • this has at least two opposite projections on its lateral surface or the projection surrounds the entire circumference of the molding.
  • the projection is in the form of a groove in the molding, the edge is inserted into this groove and there is an equally effective form-fitting attachment.
