Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a refrigerator and / or freezer with a body in which a cooled interior is located and with a door through which the cooled interior is closed.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a cost-effective and simply constructed refrigerator and / or freezer, wherein the door on both sides, i. can be opened from the right or from the left, without the need for a hinge change is required.
  • the door has a pivotally mounted about a first pivot axis on the body intermediate frame and that the door has a hinged about a second pivot axis hinged to the intermediate frame outer door, wherein the first and the second pivot axis do not coincide and preferably on the left and right the door are arranged, and wherein locking means are provided which fix the intermediate frame on the body in the locked state, so that it is not pivotable relative to the body, and allow in the unlocked state pivotal movement of the intermediate frame relative to the body.
  • the first and second pivot axes are on different sides of the door, i. arranged right and left.
  • the outer door can be moved relative to the intermediate frame and thus also relative to the body.
  • the door opening is made by pivoting the outer door about the second pivot axis. Since the intermediate frame allows penetration into the cooled interior, the user can store goods in the cooled interior with the outside door open and remove it.
  • the intermediate frame is preferably formed as a frame which is completely empty, i. also not partially filled by a disc, so that a complete access to the cooled interior is ensured with closed intermediate frame.
  • intermediate frame is to be understood broadly and includes only parts of a closed frame, e.g. its upper and lower part or strut, one or more other struts or other intermediate or connecting pieces, which are arranged in the closed state of the outer door between the outer door and the carcass.
  • the term “intermediate frame” is thus not limited to a closed frame in the strict sense, although this represents a possible embodiment of the invention.
  • the term “intermediate frame” is thus generally representative of one or more "intermediate pieces" between the outer door and the body.
  • the outer door may have a magnetic door seal whose contact surface is formed by the intermediate frame.
  • the function of the carcass front as a contact surface for the magnetic door seal takes over in this case, the intermediate frame, i. the side of the intermediate frame facing the outer door.
  • the intermediate frame is hinged to form the first pivot axis about a fixed or releasably arranged axis of rotation on one side of the body.
  • the outer door is preferably pivoted on the spaced from the first pivot axis side of the intermediate frame to form the second pivot axis.
  • the first pivot axis may be at the first side edge be arranged or aligned with this and the second pivot axis to be arranged on the second side edge or aligned with this.
  • the locking means are preferably adapted to fix the second pivot axis on the body of the device, i. to fix.
  • the intermediate frame can not be moved relative to the body, because its pivotal movement is blocked by the locking means.
  • the locking means may be formed as bolts, etc. It is essential that the locking means are designed so that they fix the intermediate frame on the body in the locked state, but still allow movement of the outer door relative to the intermediate frame.
  • the locking means can be formed for example by a spring or a torsion bar.
  • the intermediate frame e.g. in a groove or other receptacle of the body of the device and / or the outer door is retractable or receivable. This has the advantage that only one door seal is required.
  • FIG. 1 shows in a perspective view of a refrigerator and / or freezer according to the invention.
  • the device has a body 10, the open side of which can be closed by a door 20.
  • the body 10 and the door 20 define the refrigerated interior.
  • the door 20 comprises an intermediate frame 22 and an outer door 21 which adjoins the outer frame 22 on the outside in the closed state of the door 20.
  • the intermediate frame 22 between the body 10 and the outer door.
  • outer door is not to be understood as being the outermost door of the device, although this is a preferred embodiment of the invention. If necessary, additional doors can be placed in front of the outside door.
  • the outer door 21 has a frame and disposed therein glass, plastic or other disc, which is preferably an insulating glass to keep the heat input into the device as low as possible.
  • intermediate frame consists only of a frame which has no disc or other filling.
  • intermediate frame also includes any other element disposed between the outer door and the body, such as e.g. one or more struts etc.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates that the intermediate frame is preferably struck fixedly to a first hinge 31 about a first pivot axis on the body of the device.
  • the first, predetermined by the first hinge 31 pivot axis is perpendicular and parallel to the second, predetermined by the second hinge 32 pivot axis.
  • the two pivot axes are spaced apart by the width of the intermediate frame 22.
  • FIG. 2 shown state is intended to illustrate only the arrangement of the hinges and is a condition that should not occur when using the device. Rather, when using in the constellation according to FIG. 2 the outer door 21 are pressed on the outside of the intermediate frame 22, for example, by a spring-loaded torsion bar in the hinge 32 or the like.
  • the locking means are not used, ie, the intermediate frame 22 can be opened or pivoted.
  • the locking means are active, ie the intermediate frame is fixed on its hinge-remote side, ie on the side remote from the first hinge 31 the other side by the locking means on the body 10, that can not be opened or pivoted.
  • the device is to be opened in this state, this can be done only by pivoting the outer door about the second hinge 32, the first hinge 31 is "inactive" because the intermediate frame is locked. The user can thus open the device only by pivoting the door 10 in the counterclockwise direction.
  • the intermediate frame 22 can again be pivoted about the second hinge 32 and with it the outer door, e.g. is pressed by spring force to the outside of the intermediate frame.
  • FIG. 4 This condition is in FIG. 4 shown.
  • the door is opened clockwise, namely by pivoting the intermediate frame and the outer door connected thereto around the first hinge 31.
  • the intermediate frame consists of four struts 23, 24, 25 and 26, which together form a closed frame.
  • the intermediate frame is not executed closed, but only one or more struts, for example, only the upper and lower struts 23, 24 has.
  • the term "intermediate frame" is thus representative of one or more intermediate pieces, which are located between the outer door and the body.
  • the invention thus provides a double-sided door opening, i. a door opening optional to a right on the device arranged pivot axis or a left on the device arranged pivot axis possible without the need for a door stop change is required.
