Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Kältegerät mit einem durch eine Tür verschließbaren wärmeisolierenden Gehäuse, wobei die Tür ein Türblatt, einen an einer Innenfläche des Türblatts umlaufenden Dichtstreifen zum Abdichten der Tür an einem Rahmen des Gehäuses und einen am Türblatt beweglich montierten Griff aufweist, wobei ein mit dem Griff verbundener Wirkarm in einer ersten Stellung einen Kontakt zwischen dem Dichtstreifen und dem Rahmen zulässt und in einer zweiten Stellung vom Türblatt so weit gegen den Rahmen vorsteht, dass er den Kontakt verhindert. Ein solches Kältegerät ist aus DE 196 52 828 A1 bekannt.The invention relates to a refrigerator with a closable by a door heat-insulating Housing, wherein the door is a door leaf, one on an inner surface of the door panel circumferential sealing strip for sealing the door to a frame of the housing and a handle movably mounted on the door leaf, one connected to the handle Wirkarm in a first position, a contact between the sealing strip and the Frame allows and in a second position from the door leaf so far against the frame projects that it prevents contact. Such a refrigerator is known from DE 196 52 828 A1 known.
Zweck dieses Wirkarms ist, das Öffnen der Tür zu erleichtern. Insbesondere wenn die Tür eines Tür eines Kältegeräts kurz nachdem sie geschlossen worden ist, erneut geöffnet werden muss, herrscht aufgrund der Abkühlung von im offenen Zustand in den Innenraum des Kältegeräts eingedrungener Warmluft in diesem einen Unterdruck, so dass zum Öffnen der Tür ein erheblicher Widerstand zu überwinden sein kann. Dieser Widerstand kann so groß sein, dass bei unachtsamer Handhabung die Standfestigkeit eines mit nur wenig Kühlgut gefüllten Kältegeräts beeinträchtigt sein kann.The purpose of this Wirkarms is to facilitate the opening of the door. Especially if the door a door of a refrigerator shortly after it has been closed, reopened must be, prevails due to the cooling of the open state in the interior the hot air entering the refrigerator in this one negative pressure, so that to open the door can overcome a considerable resistance. This resistance can be so great that when careless handling the stability of one with only a little Refrigerated goods filled refrigerator may be impaired.
Der Wirkarm erleichtert das Öffnen der Tür dadurch, dass er durch Betätigen des Griffs aus seiner ersten Stellung in die über den Dichtstreifen vorstehende zweite Stellung bringbar ist, in der er die Tür vom Rahmen des Kältegeräts abspreizt. Durch den so entstehenden Spalt zwischen dem Rahmen und dem Lichtstreifen kommt ein Druckausgleich zustande, so dass anschließend die Tür ohne nennenswerten Widerstand zu öffnen ist.The knuckle makes it easier to open the door by pushing the handle from its first position into the second position projecting above the sealing strip can be brought, in which he spreads the door from the frame of the refrigerator. By the resulting Gap between the frame and the light strip comes a pressure equalization concluded, so that subsequently the door can be opened without significant resistance.
Die Mehrzahl der gegenwärtig kommerziell verfügbaren Modelle von Kältegeräten haben Türen, die jeweils nach Gutdünken des Anwenders mit einer Schwenkachse im Bereich ihres linken oder rechten Randes an dem Gehäuse montierbar sind. Eine solche Konstruktion ist für den Hersteller wirtschaftlich, weil sie eine einheitliche Fertigung erlaubt und die Teilevielfalt reduziert, und weil die Lage der Schwenkachse erst festgelegt werden muss, wenn das Gerät beim Anwender aufgestellt wird, wofür meist ohnehin ein Kundendienstmitarbeiter beim Anwender anwesend sein muss, der diese Festlegung miterledigen kann.Most of the currently commercially available models of refrigerators have Doors, each at the discretion of the user with a swivel axis in the area their left or right edge are mounted on the housing. Such a construction is economical for the manufacturer, because it allows a uniform production and reduces the variety of parts, and because the position of the pivot axis are first determined must, when the device is set up at the user, for what usually a customer service representative anyway must be present at the user who miterleigen this definition can.
Ein Nachteil der aus DE 196 52 828 A1 bekannten Konstruktion ist jedoch, dass sie seitenspezifisch ist. Das heißt, ein Griff und ein Wirkarm der bekannten Konstruktion, die z.B. zur Anbringung an der rechten unteren Ecke einer Tür vorgesehen sind, die um eine im Bereich ihrer linken Kante verlaufende Achse schwenkbar ist, können nicht an der linken unteren Ecke montiert werden, falls eine Schwenkbarkeit der Tür um eine Achse im Bereich des rechten Randes erwünscht ist. Dies zwingt den Hersteller dazu, zwei verschiedene Modelle von Türen, jeweils mit rechter bzw. linker Schwenkachse, mit dazu passendem Griff und Wirkarm herzustellen, und der Benutzer eines solchen Geräts muss sich beim Kauf für eine der zwei Varianten entscheiden.A disadvantage of the construction known from DE 196 52 828 A1, however, is that it is page-specific is. That is, a handle and a knuckle of known construction, e.g. are provided for attachment to the lower right corner of a door, which is around a in the Area of its left edge axis is pivotal, can not be on the left If there is a pivoting of the door around an axis in the area the right edge is desired. This forces the manufacturer to do two different ones Models of doors, each with right or left pivot axis, with matching Handle and effect arm, and the user of such a device must be decide when buying one of the two variants.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist, das oben beschriebene, aus DE 196 52 828 A1 beschriebene Kältegerät dahingehend weiter zu entwickeln, dass die Tür nach Wahl mit rechter oder linker Schwenkachse montiert werden kann, ohne dass dafür das Türblatt, der Griff oder der Wirkarm ausgetauscht werden müssen.Object of the present invention is that described above, from DE 196 52 828 A1 described to further develop that the door with choice right or left pivot axis can be mounted without the door leaf, the handle or the active arm must be replaced.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Kältegerät mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by a refrigeration device having the features of claim 1.
Dabei dient zum Verbinden von Griff und Wirkarm vorzugsweise ein Stift, der quer zu zwei im wesentlichen parallelen, von einander beabstandeten Ebenen orientiert ist, in denen sich Griff und Wirkarm erstrecken. Zweckmäßigerweise ist die Bewegung des Griffs und des Wirkarms eine Schwenkbewegung, wobei der Stift gleichzeitig eine Schwenkachse für diese Bewegung bildet.It serves to connect the handle and the active arm preferably a pin which transversely to two is oriented in substantially parallel, spaced-apart planes, in which extend grip and knuckle. Conveniently, the movement of the handle and the Wirkarms a pivoting movement, wherein the pin at the same time a pivot axis for this movement forms.
Eine besonders einfache Montage des Griffs und des Wirkarms an der Tür wird dadurch ermöglicht, dass der Stift mit dem Wirkarm einstückig ausgebildet ist. In diesem Fall kann nämlich an der Frontfläche des Türblatts zur Einführung des Griffs ein einfacher Schlitz ausgebildet sein, und an einer dem Schlitz benachbarten Seitenfläche des Türblatts ist eine Öffnung ausgebildet, durch die der Wirkarm einführbar und mit dem Verbindungsabschnitt des Griffs drehfest über den Stift verbindbar ist. A particularly simple installation of the handle and the active arm on the door is characterized allows the pin to be integrally formed with the knuckle. In this case can namely on the front surface of the door panel for the introduction of the handle a simple slot is formed, and at a side surface adjacent to the slot of the door leaf formed an opening through which the active arm inserted and with the connecting portion the handle rotatably connected via the pin is connectable.
Um nach der Montage des Wirkarms die Öffnung zu verdecken, ist zweckmäßigerweise eine Kappe vorgesehen.In order to cover the opening after assembly of the active arm, is expediently provided a cap.
Diese Kappe kann ein Lagerelement für den Stift aufweisen, um die Achse der Schwenkbewegung zu stabilisieren.This cap may include a bearing member for the pin about the axis of pivotal movement to stabilize.
Für die Anbringung des Stifts und des Wirkarms an dem Türblatt in zwei spiegelbildlichen Konfigurationen können insgesamt zwei Schlitze jeweils zu der gleichen Seitenfläche benachbart und spiegelsymmetrisch zu einander angeordnet sein. Diese Variante ist besonders zweckmäßig, wenn die Seitenfläche eine horizontale Seitenfläche ist, d.h. wenn der Griff in der Nähe der oberen oder unteren Kante des Türblatts angeordnet ist, um einen großen Abstand des Griffs von der Schwenkachse der Tür und damit einen großen Hebelarm gewährleisten zu können. Falls der Griff an der jeweils der Schwenkachse gegenüberliegenden vertikalen Kante des Türblatts angebracht wird, kann ein Schlitz ausreichen.For the attachment of the pin and the active arm on the door leaf in two mirror-image Configurations may have a total of two slots adjacent each to the same side surface and be arranged mirror-symmetrically to each other. This variant is special appropriate if the side surface is a horizontal side surface, i. if the Handle near the top or bottom edge of the door leaf is arranged to one large distance of the handle from the pivot axis of the door and thus a large lever arm to be able to guarantee. If the handle on each of the pivot axis opposite vertical edge of the door leaf, a slot may be sufficient.
Falls zwei Schlitze vorgesehen werden, kann die Kappe durch ein Profilelement zum Abdecken beider Öffnungen und des jeweils freien Schlitzes ersetzt sein.If two slots are provided, the cap can be covered by a profile element be replaced both openings and the respective free slot.
Um mit dem Wirkarm eine große Kraft übertragen zu können, ist dieser zweckmäßigerweise im wesentlichen plattenförmig ausgebildet, wobei seine mit dem Rahmen zusammenwirkende Spitze verdickt ist, um die auf den Rahmen beim Öffnen ausgeübte Kraft auf eine große Fläche zu verteilen und so Abrieb zu begrenzen.To be able to transfer a large force with the active arm, this is expediently formed substantially plate-shaped, with its cooperating with the frame Tip is thickened around the force exerted on the frame when opening spread over a large area and thus limit abrasion.

Fig. 1 zeigt eine Draufsicht auf eine Tür 1 und den daran angrenzenden Bereich des Gehäuses
2 eines Kältegeräts im Bereich der rechten oberen Ecke der Tür 1. Die Tür 1 umfasst
ein hohles, mit einem wärmedämmenden Schaummaterial ausgefülltes Türblatt 3,
an dessen Innenfläche ein elastischer Dichtstreifen 4 angebracht ist. In der in der Fig.
gezeigten geschlossenen Stellung der Tür liegt der Dichtstreifen 4 am Rahmen 5 des Gehäuses
2 an, so dass der Innenraum des Kältegeräts nahezu luftdicht verschlossen ist.Fig. 1 shows a plan view of a door 1 and the adjacent thereto portion of the
Eine Öffnung 6 an der oberen Seitenfläche des Türblatts 3 gibt den Blick in dessen Inneres
frei. Man erkennt ein hier als Wirkarm 7 bezeichnetes Element aus einem festen
Kunststoff, das im wesentlichen die Gestalt einer Platte hat, mit einer in etwa rechtwinkligen
Spitze 8, von der eine Flanke 9 an einem an dem Rahmen 5 angebrachten Polster 10
aus Kunststoff aufliegt, und einer Basis 11, die über einen senkrecht zur Ebene der
Zeichnung verlaufenden Stift 23 (s. Fig. 4) drehfest an einen Verbindungsabschnitt 13
eines Griffs 12 gekoppelt ist. Dieser Verbindungsabschnitt 13, der schmaler als der
Hauptkörper des Griffs ist, ist durch einen Schlitz an der Frontseite des Türblatts 3 in dessen
Inneres eingeführt.An opening 6 on the upper side surface of the door panel 3 gives the view in the interior
free. It can be seen here as an active element 7 designated element of a solid
Plastic, which has the shape of a plate substantially, with an approximately rectangular
Tip 8, of which a
Eine Feder 14 übt ein Drehmoment im Uhrzeigersinn auf den Griff 12 und den Wirkarm 7
aus und hält diese so in der in Fig. 1 gezeigten ersten Position, in der die Spitze 8 das
Polster 10 nicht oder allenfalls mit einem vernachlässigbaren Druck berührt. Wenn ein
Benutzer jedoch den Griff 12 zu sich hinzieht, schwenkt dieser entgegen der Kraft der
Feder 14 und dreht somit auch den Wirkarm 7, der so die Tür 1 vom Rahmen 5 forttreibt.
Da bezogen auf die gemeinsame Schwenkachse 15 von Griff 12 und Wirkarm 7 der Hebelarm
des Griffs 12 wesentlich länger ist als der der Spitze 8, genügt eine kleine, vom
Benutzer ausgeübte Zugkraft, um mit einer erheblich größeren Kraft die Tür 1 vom Rahmen
5 abzuspreizen und so die Tür auch entgegen einem im Innern des Kältegeräts herrschenden
Unterdruck zu öffnen. A
Im linken Randbereich der Tür ist eine zur Öffnung 6 analoge Öffnung in der oberen Seitenfläche
des Türblatts gebildet, in der, wie Fig. 2 zeigt, der Griff 12 und der Wirkarm 7 in
spiegelbildlich analoger Weise montierbar sind. Für die spiegelbildliche Montierbarkeit
genügt es, dass der Griff entlang einer horizontalen, zur Zeichnungsebene parallelen Ebene
symmetrisch ist, und dass der Wirkarm 7 symmetrisch zu einer Ebene ist, die durch
dessen Spitze 8 und die Schwenkachse 15 verläuft.In the left edge area of the door is an opening 6 similar to the opening in the upper side surface
formed of the door leaf, in which, as shown in FIG. 2, the

Der obere Rand des Türblatts 3 ist durch einen Kunststoff-Formkörper 20 gebildet, der an
der Frontseite den bereits erwähnten Schlitz 21 aufweist, der den Verbindungsabschnitt
13 des Griffs aufnimmt. Dieser Verbindungsabschnitt 13 besitzt eine Bohrung 22 mit
quadratischem Querschnitt.The upper edge of the door panel 3 is formed by a plastic molded
Der Wirkarm 7 ist einstückig mit dem bereits mit Bezug auf Fig. 1 angesprochenen Stift 23
ausgebildet. Der Stift 23 dient zum Herstellen eines Abstandes zwischen den zwei
parallelen Ebenen, in denen der Wirkarm 7 und der Griff 12 drehbar sind. Die Ebene des
Wirkarms 7 muss am äußersten Rand des Türblatts 3 liegen, damit der Wirkarm 7 beim
Öffnen außerhalb des Dichtstreifens 4 gegen den Rahmen 5 drücken kann; die des Griffs
muss weiter zur Mitte des Türblatts 3 liegen, um eine feste Lagerung der Schwenkachse
zu ermöglichen. Der Stift 23 umfasst einen ersten, breiten zylindrischen Abschnitt 24, an
dem zwei radiale Schlitze 25 symmetrisch zueinander ausgebildet sind, von denen in Fig.
4 nur einer zu sehen ist. Der Schlitz 25 dient zur Aufnahme einer Spitze der Feder 14.The active arm 7 is integral with the already addressed with reference to FIG. 1 pin 23rd
educated. The
An den ersten Abschnitt 24 des Stifts 23 schließt sich ein schmalerer zylindrischer Abschnitt
26, ein Abschnitt 27 mit quadratischem Querschnitt und eine wiederum zylindrische
Spitze 28 an. Der quadratische Abschnitt 27 greift in der Fig. 3 gezeigten montierten
Stellung des Wirkarms drehfest in die Bohrung 22 des Griffs 12 ein. Die Spitze 28 ist in
einem Sackloch 29 des Formkörpers 20 aufgenommen und bildet so einen unteren Lagerpunkt
für die Schwenkachse 15. At the
Die Öffnung 6 ist in Fig. 3 durch eine Kappe 30 verschlossen, hier in Gestalt eines kurzen
Winkelprofilelements mit einem die Öffnung 6 verdeckenden horizontalen Schenkel 31
und einem vertikalen Schenkel 32. Die Kappe 30 ist am Türblatt 3 einerseits durch zwei
Kunststoffstopfen 33, die durch zwei Löcher des horizontalen Schenkels 1 in in Fig. 2 gezeigte
komplementäre Löcher 34 in der oberen Seitenfläche des Türblatts rastend eingreifen,
und zum anderen durch Rastvorsprünge 35 befestigt, die in eine Nut 36 des Formkörpers
20 eingreifen. Die Innenseite des horizontalen Schenkels 31 befindet sich auf fast
ihrer gesamten Ausdehnung in Kontakt mit dem Wirkarm 7 und trägt so zur Lagefixierung
der Schwenkachse 15 bei. Als Variante könnte zum gleichen Zweck an der Unterseite des
horizontalen Schenkels 31 ein Stift ausgeformt sein, der in eine axiale Bohrung des Wirkarms
7 eingreift.The opening 6 is closed in Fig. 3 by a
Die zwei Löcher 34 in der Umgebung derjenigen Öffnung 6, die den Wirkarm 7 nicht aufnimmt,
können zur Verankerung von Beschlagteilen des Türschamiers genutzt werden.The two
