Definitions

• the invention is based on the object of providing a control module with a gas-tight control housing which can withstand in particular short-term pressure peaks.
• the control cabinet is typically defined by a total of six side walls, each arranged in pairs opposite each other. These include a rear wall and an opposite front wall, a bottom wall and an opposite top wall, and finally two additional, opposite side walls.
• the side walls are particularly flat.
• These concavely curved outer wall sections preferably form the corner areas, which in this case are then rounded, or the outer wall sections merge into such (rounded) corner areas.
• the two housing parts are connected to each other at a particularly curved, i.e. non-flat, separating surface.
• the two housing parts abut each other with their facing ends. These ends are structured and preferably engage with each other according to a tongue-and-groove principle, thus achieving a good seal in the area of the interface. Suitable locking mechanisms and locking elements hold the two housing parts together. The locking elements allow the control housing to be opened for inspection purposes.
• a discharge line 16 is attached to the control housing 14 and is in flow connection with an internal volume of the control housing.
• the discharge line 16 is preferably connected in a lower section, specifically in the lower third of the control housing 14.
• the discharge line 16 serves to discharge refrigerant into an external environment, for example, into an open outdoor area or into a sufficiently large and/or sufficiently ventilated area, as is the case, for example, in the EP 4 194 769 A1 described.
• control housing 14 has a special structure, as described below in connection with the Figures 2-5 will be explained in more detail. These figures show the structure of the control housing 14 in highly simplified, schematic representations.
• FIG 5 finally shows a front view of the rear part 26 and thus of the separating surface 28.
• the two opposite lateral walls 30E extend in a wave-like manner, with both the rear part 26 and the front part 24 each having a raised, convexly curved wall section projecting inward toward the interior space 32 (exactly one in each case), which is adjoined by a concavely curved wall section.
• the concavely curved wall sections of the two housing parts 24, 26 merge into one another, in particular homogeneously and thus without edges.
• the side walls 30E, as well as the bottom wall 30C and the top wall 30D, are mirror images of each other.
• Each of these side walls 30 has a raised central region 36, which is surrounded by concavely curved wall sections that simultaneously form the corner regions 34.
• the corner regions 34 are generally rounded and have a corner radius R which is typically greater than 5 cm.
