Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a refrigerator, in particular a refrigerator or a freezer, with an interior and a heat-insulating outer door.
  • Such - well known - refrigerators are opened with a certain frequency only to be able to review or view the content. Following such a review or consideration, a shopping list is then often created to supplement the inventories.
  • Such an opening of the refrigeration device leads, in particular when this is a cabinet-type appliance with a front door reveal, to a significant outflow of cold air and consequently energy loss.
  • a built-in refrigerator In order to provide an insight into the interior of a refrigerator without losing energy, is provided in a built-in refrigerator according to DE 201 00 997 U1 to provide a transparent insulating glass door for thermally insulating closing the built-in refrigerator and to install on the insulating glass door a variable screen, which separately - For example, in the form of a door - can be opened, thus allowing an insight into the interior of a built-in refrigerator.
  • a variable screen which separately - For example, in the form of a door - can be opened, thus allowing an insight into the interior of a built-in refrigerator.
  • Such a solution is associated with high production costs due to the insulating glass to be used.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a refrigerator, in which an opening of the outer door to visit the interior should be possible without significant exchange of air, which is also easy to manufacture.
  • An inventive refrigerator is characterized in that between the interior and the outer door an at least partially transparent intermediate door is provided, the less good heat insulating than the outer door, preferably even non-heat insulating, but the air outlet from the interior at least largely hindering, is formed.
  • heat-insulating is meant that the heat transfer coefficient through the material of the intermediate door - which has, for example, a thickness of 1 to 7 mm - values, as is usual for outer walls or doors of refrigerators such as refrigerators or freezers. Accordingly, “non-heat insulating” or “less good heat insulating” means that the respective heat transfer values are significantly greater.
  • the intermediate door does not need to ensure a completely airtight completion of the interior, as it would be necessary if they had to permanently close the interior airtight to the outside. Above all, it does not need good heat insulation properties (heat conduction), since this function is taken over by the outer door. Since thus only has to be prevented that cold air flows in larger quantities, a structurally simple and cost-effective to be realized embodiment of the intermediate door without overly complex sealing measures. Due to the less good thermal insulation properties of the intermediate door, the area outside the intermediate door is also cooled in the "normal", closed state of the refrigeration device.
  • the invention is well used in refrigerators, where at least one door shelf projecting into the interior space is provided on the inside of the outer door. Since the intermediate wall is poor or not heat-insulating, so reasonably thermally conductive, thus located in the at least one door rack content is cooled with closed outer door by heat conduction and not by convection. Another advantage arises when the intermediate door has on its side facing the outer door a profile which is adapted to the profile of the inside of the outer door. Thus, for example, the intermediate door, the at least one door rack literally enclose when it is also open with the open door and rests against the outer door and thus prevent the flow of cold air through convection with the outer door open. As a result, the contents of the door racks remain better cooled than without the presence of an intermediate door.
  • a particularly simple and versatile handling results when the intermediate door has a handle that is accessible from outside even when the outside door is closed. Then, when the intermediate door is opened by engaging this handle, the outer door automatically opens, and the intermediate door remains in contact with the outer door, thus preventing overheating of the contents of door compartments or objects located in the door compartments while allowing unhindered access Access to the interior of the refrigerator. If, on the other hand, the outer door is opened by its attached handle, the intermediate door remains closed, but still provides an insight into the interior of the refrigerator due to its transparency and largely protects it from being heated by preventing the outflow of cold air.
  • a particularly simple embodiment of the sealing of the refrigeration device results when the intermediate door is arranged completely within the circumferential seal for the sealing between the outer door and the interior, for example on the outer door.
  • “Completely inside” means that the seal forms a ring around the intermediate door, so that the intermediate door does not impair the sealing effect of this seal.
  • the intermediate door is divided into an upper and a lower portion.
  • These different sections may for example have a different transparency, so that, for example, the lower compartments of the interior are better or less einshrbar than the upper.
  • the lower portion and the upper portion can be opened separately.
  • the upper section can be speaking the door cabinets profiled, while the lower section is profiled or flat.
  • the intermediate door is releasably secured to the refrigeration device.
  • the intermediate door can be completely or temporarily removed from the refrigeration appliance by a user who so desires.
  • the intermediate door is designed such that it can be stowed in the interior.
  • such an intermediate door for example, be sunk by an opening movement by 90 ° in a corresponding recess in a side wall of the interior.
  • the intermediate door can also be rolled up, so that it can be stowed or wound up in the manner of a roller blind.
  • the intermediate door is made of glass or plastic, e.g. Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) or polycarbonate (PC), all of which are transparent.
  • Intermediate doors made of PMMA or PC for example, can be extruded, and depending on requirements, they can be screwed or glued after extrusion with a corresponding frame or hinge for pivotal attachment to the refrigerator.
  • the thickness of such a plastic door is e.g. 0.2 - 3 mm, preferably 0.5 - 1, 5 mm, so that heat can be passed through quite well.
  • the intermediate door may also be formed of a fabric, which is held in a corresponding frame.
  • Such a fabric can be designed to be sufficiently transparent, as is known, for example, from mosquito lattices, and such lattices also hinder air flows very strongly and can therefore almost completely prevent the escape of air from the interior of the refrigeration device.
  • the door can also be made of wood.
  • the intermediate door may be releasably coupled to the outer door by a coupling mechanism adapted to start opening the intermediate door as soon as the outer door is opened further than a particular first opening angle of, for example, 70 °.
  • a coupling mechanism adapted to start opening the intermediate door as soon as the outer door is opened further than a particular first opening angle of, for example, 70 °.
  • the coupling mechanism is designed to bring the intermediate door up to the open outer door and thus "closes” any door racks and / or door storage compartments located there, this offers the advantage that, apart from the short time of movement of the intermediate door by the coupling mechanism - Only either the interior or provided in the door storage space is “open” and thus subject to a certain loss of energy.
  • the coupling mechanism has an unlocking device by means of which the connection of the intermediate door with the outer door can be released or at least the automatic opening of the intermediate door can be prevented by the coupling mechanism, as long as the opening angle of the outer door is smaller than the first opening angle.
  • the user wishes to open the outer door beyond the first opening angle without the intermediate door being opened, he only needs to actuate the unlocking mechanism in order to leave the intermediate door in the closed state even when the outer door is opened further.
  • the coupling mechanism automatically opens the intermediate door and thus allows access to the interior without further intervention of the user.
  • Such an embodiment of the invention can significantly increase the comfort for a user.
  • this may include an arrangement of a cylinder with piston, acted upon by a spring cable or lever, which with a stop or latching mechanism or a friction clutch, depending on the respective way a different friction and thus blocking guaranteed, is provided.
  • the intermediate door is designed as a height-adjustable slide so as to be able to regulate the temperature compensation in the interior of the refrigerator or the outflow of cold air.
  • the intermediate door can not only be height-adjusted in its entirety, but can also be provided, for example, by a telescopic mechanism or by overlapping displacement with a selectable total height.
