Description
"VERBESSERUNG AN EINER KÜHLVORRICHTUNG" "IMPROVEMENT ON A COOLING DEVICE"
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Verbesserung an einer Kühlvorrichtung, insbesondere an einer Kühlvorrichtung, die sich aus Kühlabteii und Gefrierabteil zusammensetzt.The present invention relates to an improvement on a cooling device, in particular on a cooling device composed of Kühlabteii and freezer compartment.
Wie im Stand der Technik bekannt ist, ist der Verdampfer, der in den mit Gefrierabteil ausgestatteten Kühlvorrichtungen vorhanden ist, in der vertikalen Position, der Bodenwand des Gefrierabteiles benachbart, insbesondere in einem Abteil, das zwischen dessen äußerer Rückwand und einer inneren Zwischenwand ausgebildet ist, angeordnet.As is known in the art, in the vertical position, the evaporator, which is provided in the refrigerated compartment equipped refrigerators, is adjacent to the bottom wall of the freezer compartment, particularly in a compartment formed between the outer rear wall thereof and an inner diaphragm. arranged.
Da der Verdampfer eine Einrichtung ist, die eine gewisse Dicke aufweist, führt seine der Rückwand des Gefrierabteiles benachbarte Anordnung zur Reduktion der Tiefe des Gefrierabteiles, wobei sich dieses Merkmal im Alltag als großer Nachteil erweist. Und zwar deswegen, weil viele Gebinde mit Fertig- und Tiefkühlkost, beispielsweise Pizzapackungen, nicht in horizontaler Richtung in das Gefrierabteil passen, da ja dessen Tiefe kleiner als jene des Nahrungsmittelgebindes ist.Since the evaporator is a device that has a certain thickness, its adjacent the rear wall of the freezer compartment arrangement leads to the reduction of the depth of the freezer compartment, this feature proves to be a major drawback in everyday life. And that's because many containers with ready-made and frozen food, such as pizza packs, do not fit in the horizontal direction in the freezer compartment, since its depth is smaller than that of the food package.
Angesichts dessen hat der Anmelder die vorliegende Verbesserung an Kühlvorrichtungen, die aus Kühlabteil und Gefrierabteil gebildet werden, bereitgestellt, welche das Problem der reduzierten inneren Tiefe der Gefrierabteile auf einfache und durchaus effiziente Weise löste.In view of this, the Applicant has provided the present improvement to refrigerators formed of the refrigerated compartment and freezer compartment, which solved the problem of the reduced internal depth of the freezer compartments in a simple and quite efficient manner.
Dazu sieht die vorliegende Verbesserung ein neues Abteil zum Unterbringen des Verdampfers vor, wobei dieses Abteil in der Horizontalen angeordnet ist, wobei bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform dieses Abteil zwischen dem Kühlabteil und dem Gefrierabteil, das heißt zwischen einer unteren Wand des Gefrierabteils und einer oberen Wand des Kühlabteils, vorgesehen ist. Und bei einer Ausführungsform kann das genannte Abteil in der Decke des Gefrierabteiles vorgesehen sein.To this end, the present improvement provides a new compartment for accommodating the evaporator, this compartment being arranged horizontally, in a preferred embodiment this compartment between the refrigerating compartment and the freezer compartment, that is to say between a lower wall of the freezer compartment and an upper wall of the freezer compartment refrigeration compartment, is provided. And in one embodiment, said compartment may be provided in the ceiling of the freezer compartment.
Dadurch wurde die Tiefe des Gefrierabteils erhöht, wodurch es in größeren Gebinden verpackte Nahrungsmittelprodukte in der horizontalen Position aufnehmen kann.This has increased the depth of the freezer compartment, allowing it to accommodate packaged food products in the horizontal position in larger containers.
Zum Zweck der Veranschaulichung folgen im Anhang Zeichnungen der vorliegenden Erfindung, anhand welcher sich diese besser visualisieren lässt:For the purpose of illustration, appended drawings of the present invention follow to better visualize them:
Figur 1 ist eine perspektivische schematische Ansicht einer durch Kühlabteil und Gefrierabteil gebildeten Kühlvorrichtung, bei der die Verbesserung realisiert wurde, die Aufgabe des vorliegenden Patents ist;Figure 1 is a perspective schematic view of a cooling device formed by the refrigerator compartment and the freezer compartment in which the improvement has been realized, the object of the present patent;
Figur 2 ist eine schematische Querschnittansicht der genannten Kühlvorrichtung, die das darin vorgesehene neue horizontale Abteil darstellt, das dazu dient, den Verdampfer aufzunehmen; undFigure 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of said cooling device illustrating the new horizontal compartment provided therein for receiving the evaporator; and
Figur 3 ist ein vergrößertes Detail aus der vorhergehenden Figur und zeigt eine mögliche Ausführungsform des genannten horizontalen Abteils.Figure 3 is an enlarged detail of the preceding figure showing one possible embodiment of said horizontal compartment.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist eine "VERBESSERUNG AN EINERThe object of the present invention is an "IMPROVEMENT OF ONE
KÜHLVORRICHTUNG", wobei diese Kühlvorrichtung (1) von jenem Typ ist, der sich aus Kühlabteil (R) und Gefrierabteil (F) zusammensetzt, wobei die vorliegende Verbesserung ein horizontales Abteil (2) zur Unterbringung des üblichen Verdampfers (E) vorsieht, der ebenfalls in der Horizontalen angeordnet ist! Bei der bevorzugten Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung ist das genannte horizontale Abteil (2) zwischen dem Gefrierabteil (F) und dem Kühlabteil (R), insbesondere zwischen der unteren Wand (3) des ersteren und der oberen Wand (4) des zweiten, angeordnet; darüber hinaus ist über der genannten oberen Wand (4) des Kühlabteils (R) optional, jedoch vorzugsweise, eine Wärmeisolationsschicht (5) vorgesehen, über der eineCOOLING DEVICE ", said cooling device (1) being of the type composed of refrigerated compartment (R) and freezer compartment (F), the present improvement providing a horizontal compartment (2) for housing the conventional evaporator (E), which also is arranged in the horizontal! In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, said horizontal compartment (2) is disposed between the freezer compartment (F) and the refrigerated compartment (R), in particular between the lower wall (3) of the former and the upper wall (4) of the second; In addition, above the said upper wall (4) of the cooling compartment (R), optionally, but preferably, a heat insulating layer (5) is provided, over which a
Trennwand (6), vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff, angeordnet ist (siehe Detail aus Figur 3).Partition (6), preferably made of plastic, is arranged (see detail of Figure 3).
Bei einer Ausführungsform (nicht dargestellt) kann das genannte horizontale Abteil (2) der "Decke" des Gefrierabteiles (F) benachbart angeordnet sein. In one embodiment (not shown), said horizontal compartment (2) may be disposed adjacent to the "ceiling" of the freezer compartment (F).
