Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a refrigeration device, in particular a household refrigerator, with a body and a door that surround at least one refrigerated storage room.
  • a refrigeration device in particular a household refrigerator
  • the inside of the door of such a refrigerator made of plastic is deep-drawn and has one or more projections, which, when the door rests in its closed position on a frame of the body, engage in the storage room.
  • the protrusion In a freezer, the protrusion generally has a flat back surface and engages equally deep into the storage space to increase the thickness of the insulation layer.
  • two protrusions in the form of vertical bars are often present, which serve for the suspension of door compartments, etc.
  • EP 1 780 486 A1 discloses a refrigerator according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the frame is generally a weak point of the insulation of the refrigerator, as the inner and outer skin of the body and door touch there directly without an intermediate insulating layer. If no suitable countermeasures are taken, the outer skin of the body and the door near the frame may cool down to such an extent that condensation builds up. This may result in damage to the unit, floor coverings or adjacent furniture. In order to avoid the formation of condensation, it is therefore customary to attach a heater to the frame, for example in the form of an electrical heating conductor or a conduit in which compressed hot refrigerant circulates. Such a frame heater leads to an increased heat input into the storage room and thus affects the energy efficiency of the device.
  • the invention is based on the consideration that the frame in the edge regions, in particular at corners, is heated relatively efficiently from the outside, whereas the heat flow from the frame into the storage space is lower than in a middle region. Accordingly, the tendency of condensation formation is higher in the middle region than in the peripheral regions.
  • the central area of the frame projects forward over the two lateral areas.
  • the storage space is in particular possible to form the storage space as a whole in a cuboid shape, with a rear side of the projection parallel to the rear wall of the carcass, and nevertheless to make the effective thickness of the door-side insulation layer greater in the central region than in the edge regions.
  • the edge regions are formed by lateral regions of the frame, namely the stop side of a door and the frame side opposite this stop side.
  • the contour of the frame may be cylindrically curved, similar to the outside of the door, for which such a cylindrical curvature or crowning per se is known.
  • the frame may extend in two planes crossing at an obtuse angle.
  • a preferred field of application of the invention are refrigeration appliances with at least two storage spaces delimited from one another by a dividing wall, because the risk of such an excessively cooled surface being sufficiently strong to cause dew formation is particularly great on such a dividing wall cooled from two sides.
  • a leading edge of the divider form part of the central region and the lateral regions such that they engage, at least in the central region receiving still less ambient heat than the lateral regions, by a deep engagement of the protrusions of the doors Storage rooms are well insulated against this.
  • the central area of the frame may comprise a front edge of the dividing wall.
  • the projections of the two doors engaging in the storage spaces can have mutually parallel rear sides.
  • the engagement depth of these projections in the storage rooms may be different depending on the intended operating temperature of the storage rooms.
  • a second gap through which warm ambient air can reach an exposed part of the front edge of the partition.
  • the depth of the second gap is expedient, at least in the central region, less than that of the first gap defined between the walls of the body and the projection of one of the doors, and or the width of the second gap is greater than that of the first gap at least in the central region.
  • the intermediate wall of such a refrigerator can be kept free of a frame heating;
  • the frame heating also eliminates external walls of the refrigerator.
  • Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of a refrigerator with a body 1, in which two storage compartments, for example, a freezer compartment 2 and a normal refrigeration compartment 3, by a horizontal partition 4 are offset from each other.
  • a door of the freezer compartment 2 is denoted by 5; a corresponding door 6 of the normal refrigeration compartment is only in the sectional view of Fig. 2 shown.
  • the doors 5, 6 each have in a conventional manner a shaped from a sheet metal cambered outer skin 7 and a deep-drawn plastic inner skin 8.
  • the latter is divided into a central projection 9 with a flat back, with the door closed 5 in the freezer. 2 dips, and a peripheral region 10 surrounding the projection 9, which carries a magnetic seal 13 and is cambered parallel to the outer skin 7.
  • a frame 11 of the body is cambered, so that when the door 5 is closed, the depth I of a gap 12, which is above and below the projection 9 from the freezer compartment 2 to one attached to the edge 10 and the frame 11th This bears the fact that, while the front edge of the partition wall 4 in the edge regions 15 still by heat flow from the side direction can be held above the dew point, this heat reaches the central region 14 is no longer in appreciable extent.
  • Fig. 3 shows the application of the invention to a side-by-side refrigeration device.
  • the central region 14 of the frame 11 comprises the entire front edge of the vertical partition wall 4 between the compartments 2, 3.
  • the projection 9 on the inside of the door 5 (or the in Fig. 3 not shown second door 6) is flat wedge-shaped in cross section; its back is parallel to the flat outer surface of the door 5 and the rear wall of the body 1.
  • the engagement depth of the projection 9 thus increases from the side walls of the body 1 to the partition wall 4 towards continuously, and accordingly, in turn, the gap 12, which is equal to the Partition 4 extends between the magnetic seal 13 and the storage compartment 2, considerably lower than a corresponding gap at the level of the side wall of the body 1; There, as shown, the back of the projection 9 steplessly pass into the edge 10, so that the gap 12 is almost completely absent.
  • Fig. 4 shows a modification of the refrigeration device of Fig. 3 , which differs substantially only by the contour of the frame 11. While this in the case of Fig. 3 like in the Fig. 1 he is in the case of the Fig. 4 in two planes which intersect at the level of the front edge of the partition 4 at an obtuse angle.
  • Fig. 5 shows a schematic horizontal section through the front portion of the refrigerator of Fig. 4 , wherein the closed doors 5, 6 are shown in plan view.
  • the backs of the projections 9 of both doors 5, 6 to the front sides of the doors and parallel to each other, only the engagement depth of the projection 9 is larger in the case of the freezer compartment door 5 than in the door 6 of the normal refrigeration compartment.
  • the depth of the gap 12 between the partition wall 4 and the projections 9 of the adjacent doors 5, 6 is considerably larger on both sides of the partition 4 than that of the gap 16 between the doors 5, 6 itself.
  • the ratio of the gap depths is Temperature of the area exposed to the ambient air at the front edge of the partition wall 4 substantially closer to the ambient temperature than at the temperatures of the compartments 2, 3.
  • this temperature can be adjusted to match the operating temperatures of the compartments 2, 3 so that Under normal operating conditions the dew point is not undershot.
  • a frame heating is therefore not required at least on the partition wall 4, which is particularly advantageous here, on the one hand because it is relatively difficult to install at this point, on the other hand because a conventional annular laying the frame heating would lead to each compartment 2, 3 around in that two heating strands run parallel in the dividing wall and strongly heat them.
  • the depth of the gap 12 is chosen to be large enough even in the edge regions 14 of the frame 11, condensation can also be prevented here, and the frame heating can also be dispensed with in the edge regions 14.
