Definitions
- the present invention relates to a refrigerator, in particular a household refrigerator, and more particularly to the structure of the housing.
- Domestic refrigerators generally have a cuboidal body with at least one door hinged thereto, and often a user interface is located in a frontal ledge on the front edge of a ceiling of the carcass, the switch and / or controller for adjusting operating quantities of the appliance by a user and / or a user Indicator in which the user can read the operating status of the device.
- a refrigeration device of this type is for example off DE 20 2004 004 002 U1 known.
- the front strip is realized as a hollow body which projects beyond a front frame of the body and extends over the door striking this frame, and a control circuit of the refrigerator is accommodated in the hollow body.
- the control circuit is inserted from the open back into the hollow body and this then mounted on the body.
- the installation depth available for circuit components is limited to the depth of the hollow body.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a refrigeration device with a user interface arranged on an end strip of the carcass, in which the above-described conventional restrictions with respect to the installation space for circuit components that can be used behind the front strip and its accessibility are overcome.
- a molded part is arranged in a cooling device with a body and a door hinged to the body, in which a user interface is formed on a the end of the carcass end molding, behind the front strip in the body, a molded part, in which an upwards open shell for receiving at least one functionally connected to the user interface circuit assembly is formed.
- the shell may exceed the dimensions of the user interface or window in both the width direction of the body and in the vertical; Also, the extension in the depth direction of the body can be substantially greater than the depth, which would be easily accessible through a window of the end strip with mounting tools. This makes it possible inter alia to accommodate in the shell circuit components that are traditionally placed elsewhere in the refrigerator due to their space requirements and had to be connected to the user interface on the front bar on consuming routed through the device housing lines.
- the at least one circuit assembly is expediently recessed in the shell, so that it does not protrude beyond the upper edge of the shell and thus is not jeopardized when inserting the refrigerator in a furniture niche or in the case of a standard device does not hinder the mounting of a countertop on the body.
- a circuit board in the shell can be conveniently mounted from above here.
- the shell is provided with locking means on which such a circuit assembly can be latched from above.
- the molding may expediently extend over the entire width of the body; In this way it can also contribute to the rigidity of the body. This is particularly advantageous for the handling of refrigerators in a warehouse, where they are often lifted by means of brackets whose jaws attack the side of the body and can exert a considerable pressure in the width direction of the body.
- Grooves of the molding arranged to receive edge portions of lateral skin members of the body may help to simplify the assembly of the refrigerator.
- transverse rigidity of the body is particularly advantageous if a rear wall of the shell is part of a over the entire width of the body extending web.
- the bridge thus forms a transverse stabilization of the body in a central region of its ceiling, between the front strip and the rear wall.
- this is preferably bridged by a cover.
- a tongue and groove connection between the molding and the front strip also contributes to a quick and easy assembly of the refrigerator.
- the shell expediently has a front opening which overlaps with a window of the front strip.
- one or more stiffening ribs may expediently be formed on an underside of the shell.
- the shell may further contribute a web extending over the front opening over the entire width of the molding.

- a control panel arranged in front of the end strip - which, for example, transparent areas, through which a display mounted on the molding is visible, or may have an opening for passing an actuating element of a switch or regulator - is suitably anchored through the window to the molding.
- the control panel can be placed with respect to the molding with high accuracy, whereas positioning tolerances of the control panel with respect to the front strip, in particular in the width direction of the body, can be relatively large.
- a printed circuit board which carries control and / or display circuit elements is accommodated in the control panel itself. This allows an exact placement of the circuit elements with respect to the control panel regardless of any positioning tolerances between the control panel and the molding or the front strip.
- the front-side opening preferably belongs to a receptacle of the molded part that is different from the shell and open in the front.
- An intermediate wall which separates the forwardly open receiving chamber from the interior of the shell, is preferably aligned in the width direction of the molding so as to also contribute to its stiffening.
- the intermediate wall can be extended beyond the front opening to the entire width of the body.
- a tongue and groove connection may be provided between an upper outer skin member of the body and the molded part to provide a despite positioning tolerances foam-tight connection between the outer skin and molded part.
- This tongue and groove connection is preferably arranged on a rear edge of the molded part, since the outer skin element preferably does not extend beyond the shell.
- the shell can be completely open at the top, which can be provided in an ideal way for the outflow of heat loss of shell-mounted circuit elements.
- a backing part which serves in a manner known per se for anchoring a door hinge on the front strip, can also engage the shell in order to use the stiffening of the body achieved by the shell for the suspension of the door.

Abstract
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Kältegerät, insbesondere ein Haushaltskältegerät, und genauer gesagt den Aufbau von dessen Gehäuse. Haushaltskältegeräte haben im allgemeinen einen quaderförmigen Korpus mit wenigstens einer daran angeschlagenen Tür, und häufig ist in einer Stirnleiste am vorderen Rand einer Decke des Korpus eine Benutzerschnittstelle untergebracht, die Schalter und/oder Regler zum Einstellen von Betriebsgrößen des Geräts durch einen Benutzer und/oder eine Anzeige umfasst, an der der Benutzer Angaben zum Betriebszustand des Geräts ablesen kann. Ein Kältegerät dieses Typs ist zum Beispiel aus
Bei diesem bekannten Kältegerät ist die Stirnleiste als ein Hohlkörper realisiert, der über einen vorderen Rahmen des Korpus vorspringt und sich über der an diesen Rahmen anschlagenden Tür erstreckt, und eine Steuerschaltung des Kältegeräts ist in dem Hohlkörper untergebracht. Die Steuerschaltung wird von der offenen Rückseite her in den Hohlkörper eingefügt und dieser anschließend am Korpus montiert. Die für Schaltungskomponenten verfügbare Einbautiefe ist auf die Tiefe des Hohlkörpers beschränkt.In this known refrigeration device, the front strip is realized as a hollow body which projects beyond a front frame of the body and extends over the door striking this frame, and a control circuit of the refrigerator is accommodated in the hollow body. The control circuit is inserted from the open back into the hollow body and this then mounted on the body. The installation depth available for circuit components is limited to the depth of the hollow body.
Bei einem Kältegerät mit einer Stirnleiste, die nicht als ein an den Korpus anzufügendes Teil sondern als integraler Bestandteil des Korpus ausgelegt ist, müssen herkömmlicherweise Komponenten der Benutzerschnittstelle durch eine Öffnung der Stirnleiste hindurch eingefügt und montiert werden. Diese Öffnung ist naturgemäß lang und schmal, was den Einbau von Schaltungskomponenten beschwerlich macht. Die Montage von Schaltungskomponenten in Positionen, die in seitlicher und vertikaler Richtung nicht vollständig mit der Öffnung überlappen, oder auch die in Tiefenrichtung gestaffelte Anbringung von mehreren Komponenten ist sehr schwierig.In a refrigeration device with a front strip, which is designed not as a part to be attached to the body but as an integral part of the body, conventionally components of the user interface must be inserted and mounted through an opening in the end strip. This opening is naturally long and narrow, which makes the installation of circuit components cumbersome. The assembly of circuit components in positions that do not completely overlap with the opening in the lateral and vertical directions, or the staggered mounting of multiple components in the depth direction is very difficult.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist, ein Kältegerät mit einer an einer Stirnleiste des Korpus angeordneten Benutzerschnittstelle zu schaffen, bei dem die oben beschriebenen herkömmlichen Beschränkungen hinsichtlich des hinter der Stirnleiste nutzbaren Einbauraums für Schaltungskomponenten und dessen Zugänglichkeit überwunden sind.The object of the present invention is to provide a refrigeration device with a user interface arranged on an end strip of the carcass, in which the above-described conventional restrictions with respect to the installation space for circuit components that can be used behind the front strip and its accessibility are overcome.
Die Aufgabe wird gelöst, indem bei einem Kältegerät mit einem Korpus und einer an dem Korpus angeschlagenen Tür, bei dem an einer die Decke des Korpus abschließenden Stirnleiste eine Benutzerschnittstelle gebildet ist, hinter der Stirnleiste im Korpus ein Formteil angeordnet ist, in dem eine nach oben offene Schale zur Aufnahme wenigstens einer mit der der Benutzerschnittstelle funktionsmäßig verbundenen Schaltungsbaugruppe ausgebildet ist. Indem die Schale von oben zugänglich gemacht ist, entfallen sämtliche Beschränkungen des verfügbaren Einbauraums, die herkömmlicherweise durch die Ausdehnung der Benutzerschnittstelle an der Stirnleiste bzw. die Abmessungen eines die Benutzerschnittstelle aufnehmenden Fensters der Stirnleiste gegeben sind. Die Schale kann die Abmessungen der Benutzerschnittstelle bzw. des Fenster sowohl in Breitenrichtung des Korpus als auch in der Vertikalen übertreffen; auch die Ausdehnung in Tiefenrichtung des Korpus kann wesentlich größer sein als die Tiefe, die durch ein Fenster der Stirnleiste hindurch mit Montagewerkzeugen bequem erreichbar wäre. Dadurch ist es unter anderem möglich, in der Schale Schaltungskomponenten unterzubringen, die aufgrund ihres Platzbedarfs herkömmlicherweise an anderer Stelle im Kältegerät platziert werden und mit der Benutzerschnittstelle an der Stirnleiste über aufwändig durch das Gerätegehäuse verlegte Leitungen verbunden werden mussten.The object is achieved by a molded part is arranged in a cooling device with a body and a door hinged to the body, in which a user interface is formed on a the end of the carcass end molding, behind the front strip in the body, a molded part, in which an upwards open shell for receiving at least one functionally connected to the user interface circuit assembly is formed. By making the shell accessible from above, it eliminates any limitations on the available installation space traditionally provided by the extension of the user interface on the fascia or the dimensions of a user interface receiving window of the fascia. The shell may exceed the dimensions of the user interface or window in both the width direction of the body and in the vertical; Also, the extension in the depth direction of the body can be substantially greater than the depth, which would be easily accessible through a window of the end strip with mounting tools. This makes it possible inter alia to accommodate in the shell circuit components that are traditionally placed elsewhere in the refrigerator due to their space requirements and had to be connected to the user interface on the front bar on consuming routed through the device housing lines.
Die wenigstens eine Schaltungsbaugruppe ist zweckmäßigerweise in der Schale vertieft angeordnet, so dass sie nicht über die Oberkante der Schale übersteht und folglich beim Einschieben des Kältegeräts in eine Möbelnische nicht gefährdet ist bzw. im Falle eines Standgerätes die Montage einer Arbeitsplatte auf dem Korpus nicht behindert.The at least one circuit assembly is expediently recessed in the shell, so that it does not protrude beyond the upper edge of the shell and thus is not jeopardized when inserting the refrigerator in a furniture niche or in the case of a standard device does not hinder the mounting of a countertop on the body.
Anstatt von vorn kann eine Schaltungsbaugruppe in der Schale bequem von oben hier montiert werden. Vorzugsweise ist die Schale mit Rastmitteln versehen, an denen eine solche Schaltungsbaugruppe von oben einrastbar ist.Instead of the front, a circuit board in the shell can be conveniently mounted from above here. Preferably, the shell is provided with locking means on which such a circuit assembly can be latched from above.
Das Formteil kann sich zweckmäßigerweise über die gesamte Breite des Korpus erstrecken; auf diese Weise kann es auch zur Steifigkeit des Korpus beitragen. Dies ist insbesondere für die Handhabung von Kältegeräten in einem Lager vorteilhaft, wo diese häufig mit Hilfe von Klammern angehoben werden, deren Klemmbacken seitlich am Korpus angreifen und dabei einen erheblichen Druck in Breitenrichtung des Korpus ausüben können.The molding may expediently extend over the entire width of the body; In this way it can also contribute to the rigidity of the body. This is particularly advantageous for the handling of refrigerators in a warehouse, where they are often lifted by means of brackets whose jaws attack the side of the body and can exert a considerable pressure in the width direction of the body.
Nuten des Formteils, die angeordnet sind, um Randabschnitte von seitlichen Außenhautelementen des Korpus aufzunehmen, können zur Vereinfachung des Zusammenbaus des Kältegeräts beitragen.Grooves of the molding arranged to receive edge portions of lateral skin members of the body may help to simplify the assembly of the refrigerator.
Vertikale Wandabschnitte des Formteils, an denen die seitlichen Außenhautelemente anliegen, tragen zur Stabilisierung des Korpus insbesondere während des Zusammenbaus, vor dem Ausschäumen, sowie zur Schaumdichtigkeit des Korpus bei.Vertical wall sections of the molded part, against which the lateral outer skin elements rest, contribute to the stabilization of the body, in particular during assembly, before foaming, as well as to the foam-tightness of the body.
Für die Quersteifigkeit des Korpus ist insbesondere von Vorteil, wenn eine Rückwand der Schale Teil eines sich über die gesamte Breite des Korpus erstreckenden Steges ist. Der Steg bildet so eine Querstabilisierung des Korpus in einem zentralen Bereich seiner Decke, zwischen Stirnleiste und Rückwand.For the transverse rigidity of the body is particularly advantageous if a rear wall of the shell is part of a over the entire width of the body extending web. The bridge thus forms a transverse stabilization of the body in a central region of its ceiling, between the front strip and the rear wall.
Um die Versteifung durch einen aus der Rückwand ausgesparten Kabeldurchgang nicht unnötig zu schwächen, ist dieser vorzugsweise durch ein Abdeckteil überbrückt.In order not to weaken the stiffening by a recessed from the rear wall cable passage unnecessarily, this is preferably bridged by a cover.
Eine Nut-Feder-Verbindung zwischen Formteil und Stirnleiste trägt zusätzlich zu einem schnellen und einfachen Zusammenbau des Kältegeräts bei.A tongue and groove connection between the molding and the front strip also contributes to a quick and easy assembly of the refrigerator.
Um in der Schale untergebrachte Anzeigeelemente an der Stirnleiste sichtbar zu machen, und/oder Schalter und Regler an dem Formteil von vorn montieren und betätigen zu können, weist die Schale zweckmäßigerweise eine vorderseitige Öffnung auf, die mit einem Fenster der Stirnleiste überlappt.In order to make displayed in the shell display elements on the front panel, and / or to mount switches and controls on the molding from the front and operate, the shell expediently has a front opening which overlaps with a window of the front strip.
Zur Versteifung der Schale und auch zur Verbesserung ihrer Verankerung nach dem Ausschäumen des Korpus können zweckmäßigerweise eine oder mehrere Versteifungsrippen an einer Unterseite der Schale gebildet sein.To stiffen the shell and also to improve its anchorage after foaming of the body one or more stiffening ribs may expediently be formed on an underside of the shell.
Zur Versteifung der Schale kann ferner ein Steg beitragen, der sich über der vorderseitigen Öffnung über die gesamte Breite des Formteils erstreckt. An diesem Steg kann insbesondere eine Nut oder eine Feder der Nut-Feder-Verbindung mit der Stirnleiste ausgebildet sein.To stiffen the shell may further contribute a web extending over the front opening over the entire width of the molding. In particular, a groove or a tongue of the tongue and groove connection with the end strip can be formed on this web.
Eine vor der Stirnleiste angeordnete Bedienblende - die zum Beispiel transparente Bereiche, durch die eine an dem Formteil montierte Anzeige sichtbar ist, oder eine Öffnung zum Hindurchführen eines Betätigungselements eines Schalters oder Reglers aufweisen kann - ist zweckmäßigerweise durch das Fenster hindurch an dem Formteil verankert. So kann die Bedienblende in Bezug auf das Formteil mit hoher Genauigkeit platziert werden, wohingegen Positionierungstoleranzen der Bedienblende in Bezug auf die Stirnleiste, insbesondere in Breitenrichtung des Korpus, relativ groß sein können.A control panel arranged in front of the end strip - which, for example, transparent areas, through which a display mounted on the molding is visible, or may have an opening for passing an actuating element of a switch or regulator - is suitably anchored through the window to the molding. Thus, the control panel can be placed with respect to the molding with high accuracy, whereas positioning tolerances of the control panel with respect to the front strip, in particular in the width direction of the body, can be relatively large.
Einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung zufolge ist in der Bedienblende selbst eine Leiterplatte aufgenommen, die Steuer- und/oder Anzeigeschaltungselemente trägt. Dies ermöglicht eine exakte Platzierung der Schaltungselemente in Bezug zur Bedienblende ungeachtet eventueller Positionierungstoleranzen zwischen der Bedienblende und dem Formteil oder der Stirnleiste.According to a preferred embodiment, a printed circuit board which carries control and / or display circuit elements is accommodated in the control panel itself. This allows an exact placement of the circuit elements with respect to the control panel regardless of any positioning tolerances between the control panel and the molding or the front strip.
Vorzugsweise gehört die vorderseitige Öffnung zu einer von der Schale verschiedenen, nach vorn offenen Aufnahme des Formteils.The front-side opening preferably belongs to a receptacle of the molded part that is different from the shell and open in the front.
Eine Zwischenwand, die die nach vorn offene Aufnahmekammer vom Inneren der Schale trennt, ist vorzugsweise in Breitenrichtung des Formteils ausgerichtet, um ebenfalls zu dessen Versteifung beizutragen.An intermediate wall, which separates the forwardly open receiving chamber from the interior of the shell, is preferably aligned in the width direction of the molding so as to also contribute to its stiffening.
Als weiterer Beitrag zur Versteifung kann die Zwischenwand über die vorderseitige Öffnung hinaus auf die gesamte Breite des Korpus ausgedehnt sein.As a further contribution to the stiffening, the intermediate wall can be extended beyond the front opening to the entire width of the body.
Auch zwischen einem oberen Außenhautelement des Korpus und des Formteils kann eine Nut-Feder-Verbindung vorgesehen sein, um einen trotz Positionierungstoleranzen schaumdichten Anschluss zwischen Außenhaut und Formteil zu schaffen. Diese Nut-Feder-Verbindung ist vorzugsweise an einem hinteren Rand des Formteils angeordnet, da das Außenhautelement sich vorzugsweise nicht bis über die Schale erstreckt. Insbesondere bei einem Einbau-Kältegerät, bei dem die Oberseite des Korpus vor Zugriff geschützt ist, kann die Schale nach oben völlig offen sein, wodurch in idealer Weise für den Abfluss von Verlustwärme von in der Schale montierten Schaltungselementen gesorgt werden kann.Also between an upper outer skin member of the body and the molded part, a tongue and groove connection may be provided to provide a despite positioning tolerances foam-tight connection between the outer skin and molded part. This tongue and groove connection is preferably arranged on a rear edge of the molded part, since the outer skin element preferably does not extend beyond the shell. In particular, in a built-in refrigerator, wherein the top of the body is protected from access, the shell can be completely open at the top, which can be provided in an ideal way for the outflow of heat loss of shell-mounted circuit elements.
Ein Hinterlegteil, das in an sich bekannter Weise zur Verankerung eines Türscharniers an der Stirnleiste dient, kann auch an der Schale angreifen, um die durch die Schale erreichte Versteifung des Korpus auch für die Aufhängung der Tür zu nutzen.A backing part, which serves in a manner known per se for anchoring a door hinge on the front strip, can also engage the shell in order to use the stiffening of the body achieved by the shell for the suspension of the door.

An einer Vorderseite der zentralen Aussparung der Schale 1 ist eine großflächige Öffnung 15 gebildet. Die Öffnung 15 begrenzt eine nach vorn offene Aufnahmekammer 39, die von dem Inneren der Schale 38 durch eine in
An einem Steg 16, der sich über der Öffnung 15 über die gesamte Breite des Formteils 1 erstreckt, ist mit lokalen Unterbrechungen eine nach vorn offene Nut 17 geformt. Die Nut 17 ist vorgesehen, um einen horizontal abgewinkelten Randstreifen 18 einer aus Blech geformten Stirnleiste 19 aufzunehmen. Ein Fenster 20 der Stirnleiste 19 überlappt in montiertem Zustand mit der Öffnung 15.At a
Im fertig zusammengebauten Zustand ist das Fenster 20 durch eine aus Kunststoff geformte Bedienblende 21 verschlossen. Die Bedienblende 21 hat eine Grundplatte 22, die das Fenster 20 überdeckt, und eine Mehrzahl von von der Rückseite der Grundplatte 22 benachbart zu ihrem oberen und unteren Rand abstehenden Rastfingern 23, die durch das Fenster 20 hindurch in Rastaussparungen 24 am Rand der Öffnung 15 formschlüssig eingreifen und die Bedienblende 21 dort verankern. So ist sichergestellt, dass durchsichtige Fenster und/oder Öffnungen 25 der Bedienblende 21, von denen in
Rechts und links vom Fenster 20 sind in der Stirnleiste 19 jeweils zwei Schraubenlöcher 27 gezeigt. Ein Paar dieser Löcher ist vorgesehen, um daran in an sich bekannter Weise ein in
Ein Verbindungsblech 29 ist vorgesehen, um einen Spalt zwischen der Oberseite des Kältegeräts und der Decke einer Möbelnische, in der es montiert ist, nach vorn zu verschließen. Das Verbindungsblech 29 hat an seinem rückwärtigen Rand mehrere überstehende Finger 30, 31, von denen die mittleren, schmaleren Finger 30 vorgesehen sind, um reibschlüssig in aus dem Randstreifen 18 der Stirnleiste 19 freigeschnittene Bügel 32 einzugreifen, während die breiteren, endständigen Finger 31 Schraublöcher 33 für die Befestigung an der Stirnleiste 19 oder dem Formteil 1 aufweisen. Schraublöcher 34 in einem vorderen Bereich des Verbindungsblechs 29 dienen zur Befestigung an der Decke der Möbelnische.A connecting
Falls erforderlich, könnte über der Schale 38 noch ein Berührungsschutz, zum Beispiel in Form eines Rostes oder eines Stücks Streckmetall angebracht sein, um die Schaltungsbaugruppen vor Beschädigung, insbesondere vor dem Einbau des Kältegeräts in einer Möbelnische, zu schützen.If necessary, protection against contact, for example in the form of a grate or a piece of expanded metal, could also be provided over the
Das Prinzip der Erfindung ist nicht auf Einbaukältegeräte beschränkt. So kann eine nach oben offene oder von einem Rost überdeckte Schale z.B. an der Decke eines frei stehenden, mannshohen Kältegeräts für einen Benutzer unsichtbar angeordnet sein, oder sie kann bei einem Kältegerät in Tischbauweise unter einer auf den Korpus aufgesetzten Arbeitsplatte verborgen sein.The principle of the invention is not limited to built-in refrigerators. Thus, an upwardly open or rust covered bowl may e.g. be invisibly arranged on the ceiling of a free-standing, man-sized refrigerator for a user, or it may be hidden in a table-top refrigeration device under a worktop placed on the carcass.
