Description

Kühlgerät cooling unit

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Kühlgerät mit einem Gerätekorpus und einer diesen verschließenden Tür.The invention relates to a refrigerator with a device body and this door closing.

Üblicherweise weisen Kühlgeräte über Scharniere angeschlagene einflügelige Türen auf. Dabei sind die Scharniere jeweils an einer Seitenwand angeschlagen. Die Öffnung der Tür erfolgt regelmäßig händisch, wobei hierzu an der Außenseite der Tür ein Handgriff angeordnet ist. Zum sicheren und dichten Verschließen der Tür weist diese in ihrem Randbereich häufig einen umlaufenden Magnetstreifen auf, der ein dichtes anliegen der Dichtung an dem Gerätekorpus des Kühlgerätes im geschlossenen Zustand sicherstellt.Usually, refrigerators have hinge-hinged hinged doors. The hinges are each struck on a side wall. The opening of the door is done regularly by hand, for which purpose a handle is arranged on the outside of the door. For safe and tight closing of the door, this often has in its edge region on a circulating magnetic strip, which ensures a tight abutment of the seal on the device body of the refrigerator in the closed state.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es daher, einen neuartigen Öffnungsmechanismus für Kühlgeräte zu schaffen.Object of the present invention is therefore to provide a novel opening mechanism for refrigerators.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch die Kombination der Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Dabei besteht die grundsätzliche Erfindung darin, dass die Kühlschranktür nicht mehr manuell sondern automatisch betätigbar ist. Dieser erfinderische Gedanke findet eine Vielzahl von bevorzugten Ausgestaltungen in den sich an den Hauptanspruch anschließenden Unteransprüchen.According to the invention this object is achieved by the combination of the features of claim 1. Here, the basic invention is that the refrigerator door is no longer manually but automatically actuated. This inventive idea finds a variety of preferred embodiments in the subordinate claims to the main claim.

Demnach kann der Antrieb zum automatischen Öffnen der Tür elektrisch oder alternativ auch pneumatisch erfolgen.Accordingly, the drive for automatically opening the door can be done electrically or alternatively pneumatically.

Ein Auslösemechanismus zum Öffnen bzw. Schließen der Tür kann aus einem berührungslosen Sensor bestehen. Dabei kann es sich um ein Lichtschrankensystem oder beispielsweise um einen kapazitiven Auslöser handeln.A trigger mechanism for opening and closing the door may consist of a non-contact sensor. This can be a light barrier system or, for example, a capacitive trigger.

Die Elemente des Automatikantriebs sind vorteilhaft in der Tür integriert. Eine Ausnahme mag die vergleichsweise groß bauende Stromversorgung bilden, die dann im Gerätekorpus unterzubringen ist.The elements of the automatic drive are advantageously integrated in the door. One exception may be the comparatively large building power supply, which is then to be accommodated in the device body.

Vorteilhaft besteht die Tür aus mehreren verschiebbar gelagerten Türelementen.Advantageously, the door consists of several slidably mounted door elements.

Dabei kann sie gemäß einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung aus zwei Türelementen bestehen, die zum Öffnen jeweils in entgegengesetzte Richtungen seitlich nach außen über die Begrenzung des Gerätekorpus hinaus verschiebbar sind.In this case, according to an advantageous embodiment, it can consist of two door elements, which can be displaced laterally outwards beyond the boundary of the device body for opening in opposite directions.

Gemäß einer anderen Ausgestaltung der Erfindung können zwei Türelemente vorhanden sein, die zum Öffnen jeweils übereinander verschiebbar sind, wodurch jeweils eine Hälfte des Kühlgerätes verschlossen und die andere Hälfte zugänglich ist.According to another embodiment of the invention, two door elements may be present, which are each movable to open one above the other, whereby each half of the refrigerator is closed and the other half is accessible.

Schließlich kann gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung die Tür aus vier Türelementen aufgebaut sein, von denen jeweils die zwei Türelemente, die jeweils an die Wand des Gerätekorpus angrenzen feststehen, wobei die mittleren Türelemente zum Öffnen jeweils über die feststehenden Türelemente schiebbar sind. Gemäß einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann die Tür als ganzes bzw. können die einzelnen Tϋrelemente zumindest vorwiegend aus Glas bestehen.Finally, according to a preferred embodiment, the door can be constructed of four door elements, of which in each case the two door elements, each adjacent to the wall of the device body are fixed, the middle door elements are openable to open respectively over the fixed door elements. According to a further embodiment of the invention, the door as a whole or the individual door elements can consist at least predominantly of glass.

Schließlich ist vorteilhaft die Antriebssteuerung mit einem Fingerklemmschutz bzw. einem Kollisionsschutz versehen.Finally, the drive control is advantageously provided with a finger trap protection or collision protection.

Gemäß einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann die Tür mit den einzelnen Türelementen als Ganzes um Scharniere schwenkbar gelagert sein. Das bedeutet also, dass in der Tür die einzelnen Türelemente als Schiebeelemente ausgebildet sind, die beispielsweise zum Herausnehmen des Kühlgutes durch den berührungslosen Sensor angesteuert geöffnet werden können. Um nun das gesamte Kühlgerät zu befüllen, mag es vorteilhaft sein, die Tür als ganzes zu öffnen, wobei hierzu die gesamte Tür mit den einzelnen verschiebbar in dieser gelagerten Türelementen um seitliche Scharniere aufschwenkbar ist. Hierdurch ist das Einlagern des Kühlgutes in einfacher Weise möglich. Das Aufschwenken der Tür kann gemäß der Erfindung zwar automatisch erfolgen, es kann aber, da es ja vergleichsweise selten erfolgt, auch manuell erfolgen.According to a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention, the door with the individual door elements as a whole can be mounted pivotably about hinges. This means that in the door, the individual door elements are designed as sliding elements, which can be opened, for example, driven to remove the goods to be cooled by the non-contact sensor. In order to fill the entire refrigerator, it may be advantageous to open the door as a whole, for which purpose the entire door with the individual displaceable in this mounted door elements is hinged to lateral hinges. As a result, the storage of the refrigerated goods in a simple manner possible. The swinging of the door can be done automatically according to the invention, but it can, as it happens so comparatively rare, also be done manually.
