Definitions

  • the invention relates to a refrigeration appliance, in particular domestic refrigeration appliance, comprising a body with a coolable interior, a door leaf provided for opening and closing the interior, mounted on the body and an airtightly closable storage compartment arranged in the interior.
  • a refrigeration device is eg from the US-A-5,271,240 known.
  • the DE 102 48 510 A1 discloses a refrigerator with a storage compartment surrounding a hollow-walled housing and with a vacuum pump which is connected via a suction line to a cavity of the housing.
  • the suction line is also connected to the storage compartment.
  • US-A-5,271,240 describes a refrigerator with a coolable interior, arranged in the interior, hermetically sealable storage compartment and a mechanical ventilation device for venting the storage compartment.
  • Object of the present invention is to provide a refrigeration device with a simple, inexpensive airtight sealable storage compartment.
  • a refrigeration device in particular a household refrigerating appliance, comprising a body with a coolable interior, a door leaf provided for opening and closing the interior, a door leaf mounted on the body and an airtightly closable storage compartment arranged in the interior, with a mechanical ventilation device, which is to be actuated by a force acting on the storage compartment pressure force to vent the storage compartment.
  • evacuable storage compartments on the one hand controls are provided which serve to open and close the storage compartment and on the other hand separate controls are provided which serve to cause the generation of a vacuum in the closed storage compartment or serve to ventilate the storage compartment to a prevailing in the storage compartment vacuum reduce to ambient pressure, so that the storage compartment without much effort can be opened.
  • a vacuum or a negative pressure to be generated by means of expensive pump devices and, before opening the storage compartment, the vacuum must first be released by actuating a separate actuating device. This is cumbersome and time consuming for a user. Also, such a device is very expensive to manufacture and in operation.
  • the invention therefore provides a solution in which the user in a simple manner by means of the mechanical ventilation device, for example by a single intuitive movement, vent the storage compartment when reaching the closed position, that is, by means of this movement can generate a negative pressure.
  • the mechanical ventilation device can be formed by a depressible elastic wall section, upon actuation of which an overpressure is built up in the storage compartment and the storage compartment is vented via an opening valve lip.
  • An overpressure is built up by the volume of the storage compartment is reduced by pressing the elastic wall portion and thereby initially increases the internal pressure of the airtight storage compartment. Thereafter, a valve lip opens, so that the overpressure is reduced and air escapes from the storage compartment.
  • the elastic wall section is released again, the elastic wall section returns to its original position, the storage compartment resuming its original volume, but closing tightly, that is to say the storage compartment is in its original position.
  • the valve lip is closed again, so that no air from the outside can penetrate into the expanding volume and thus a negative pressure in the storage compartment is built.
  • the mechanical ventilation device may be designed as a ventilation device of known food storage boxes.
  • the storage compartment can be a compartment permanently installed in the refrigeration appliance, which can move one in particular forward, i. to the door of the refrigerator, pointing opening.
  • the opening can be closed by a closure lid.
  • the storage compartment can have a closure lid, in particular a closure lid mounted pivotably on the storage compartment, with a pressure opening lock, which is formed in the case of a pressure force acting on the closure lid for locking to operate the mechanical ventilation device for venting the storage compartment.
  • the storage compartment can be provided analogously to a food storage box with a removable, ie separate, closing lid.
  • the closure cover can also be pivotally mounted, in particular by means of a hinge arrangement, such as a film hinge, on the storage compartment.
  • the closure lid can also be connected in one piece with a firmly fixed in the interior of the refrigerator storage compartment. At least one side wall of the storage compartment may be formed by a portion of an inner wall of the interior of the refrigeration device.
  • the pressure-opening lock may be a mechanism mechanically locking the storage compartment or the closure lid by a pressing force.
  • the storage compartment can be designed as a drawer in which the mechanical ventilation device for venting the drawer is to be actuated by a pressure force acting on the drawer.
  • a pressure movement usually to be performed for opening and / or closing the drawer can also be used to actuate the mechanical ventilation device, which causes a venting of the closed drawer.
  • a refrigeration device is understood in particular to be a household refrigeration appliance, that is to say a refrigeration appliance that is used for housekeeping in households or in the gastronomy sector, and in particular for storing foods and / or drinks at specific temperatures, such as, for example, a refrigerator, a freezer, a refrigerated freezer combination or a refrigerator wine fridge.
  • a mechanical pressure-opening lock In addition to a mechanical pressure-opening lock other types of pressure-opening lock can be provided which unlock by pressing the drawer not only the drawer, but also, in particular at the same time operate mechanical ventilation device, which is set up to vent the drawer. For example, by pressing on a drawer front of the closed drawer not only the drawer unlocked to open and / or moved on, but also solved an existing negative pressure by aerating the drawer.
  • the drawer or the drawer front may for this purpose have a button, which has, for example, an elastic portion which is part of the mechanical ventilation device in order to ventilate the drawer.
  • a mechanical pressure-opening lock which is also referred to as "push-to-open" fitting
  • a pressure-opening lock can for example be realized by a pin which is guided in a backdrop, which can be designed with two different gate paths for opening and closing.
  • the gate may have a so-called heart curve, in which the pin is guided such that in a locking position of the pressure-opening lock the pin is spring-biased held in a position in which the pressure-opening latch is in a closed position, and by Pressing the pressure-opening lock in the closing direction of the pin is pressed in a gate path along which the pin is moved from the closed position to an open position in which the pressure-opening lock is relaxed and thereby moves to an open position. Upon a subsequent pressing of the pressure-opening lock in the closed position, the pin moves along a second gate path in the closed position in which the pin is spring-biased held in the closed position.
  • This principle is also used, for example, in ballpoint pens.
  • the drawer can be slidably mounted in the interior by means of a linear guide and be operated by moving the drawer from an open position in a closing direction for venting the mechanical ventilation device.
  • the mechanical ventilation device can be actuated by pressing a drawer front of the drawer.
  • These Embodiment is particularly suitable for mechanical pressure-opening locks, which are also referred to as "push-to-open" fittings.
  • the drawer front can in particular have an elastic pressure section, by the actuation of which the mechanical ventilation device for venting the drawer is to be actuated. It can be provided that the mechanical ventilation device for venting the drawer can be actuated by pressing any point of the drawer front. However, it can also be provided that only a certain, in particular optically exposed pressing portion of the drawer front is formed to be able to activate by pressing the mechanical ventilation device for venting the drawer. If pressure is exerted on a different point of the drawer front as the pressure section intended for this purpose, no activation of the mechanical ventilation device takes place. This can help to avoid unintentional actuation of the mechanical ventilation device.
  • the drawer airtight closing ceiling wall of a shelf are formed in the interior of the refrigerator.
  • the drawer can be mounted extendable in particular hanging on the shelf.
  • the drawer can be removed, for example, together with the shelf from the refrigerator.
  • the mechanical ventilation device can be provided instead of the shelf on a side wall or the bottom of the drawer.
  • the shelf is designed as a glass plate, a user can view the contents of the drawer through the transparent shelf, without having to open the drawer.
  • This has the particular advantage that the contents of the drawer for a user is immediately recognizable and, where appropriate, the drawer does not need to be opened when it is recognized that the content is not available in the drawer.
  • the Fig. 1 shows a section of a household refrigerator 1 as an example of a refrigeration device in a perspective view.
  • the household refrigerator 1 has a body 2, which limits a coolable interior 3.
  • the interior 3 forms in the case of the present embodiment, a cooling chamber, which can be cooled by means of a non-illustrated, known in the art in principle cooling device.
  • the refrigeration device is designed for example as a refrigeration cycle and comprises e.g. at least one evaporator and at least one compressor.
  • refrigerator compartment shelves and / or drawers can be arranged, which are provided for receiving frozen or refrigerated goods.
  • the household refrigeration appliance 1 has a door leaf 4 attached to the body 2, which is provided to close the interior space 3.

  • the storage compartment 6 has a closing cover 7.
  • the closing cover 7 comprises a mechanical ventilation device 8, which may have an elastic wall section 8a.
  • the volume in the storage compartment 6 is reduced, so that an overpressure is created. If the overpressure exceeds a minimum size, a valve lip 9 is opened and air can escape from the storage compartment 6 into the interior 3.
  • the valve lip 9 closes after releasing the elastic wall portion 8a again and the volume of the storage compartment 6 increases again due to the relaxing elastic wall portion 8a, whereby a negative pressure in the storage compartment 6 is generated.
  • a pressure-opening lock 12 is also provided.
  • the pressure-opening lock 12 can be operated by pressing the elastic wall portion 8a to vent the drawer 6.
  • the elastic wall section 8a can be integrated in the closing cover 7, as shown in the present exemplary embodiment.
