Definitions
- the invention relates to a refrigerator or freezer according to the preamble of claim 1.
- a pivotable handle is provided as a handle for actuating a door, which releases an airway from the outside into the cooling space enclosed by the device housing and the door when the door is opened via a valve arrangement.
- the valve arrangement is closed when the handle is not actuated.
- the air cools down and the elastic seal rests close to the support edge of the device housing, which holds the door in the closed position with considerable force. This vacuum balances itself out when the handle is actuated via the valve arrangement controlled thereby.
- the invention has for its object to take measures in a refrigerator or freezer according to the preamble of claim 1, through which pressure equalization between the outside atmosphere and the cooling space can be initiated in a simple manner without the use of special valve devices.
- a section of the seal which is present anyway for the tight seal, is used as a valve path.
- a simple lifting device that has to be operated manually needs to be assigned to the relevant section.
- the handle required for this is preferably assigned to a door handle and is actuated together with the latter when the door is opened.
- the lifting device can be retrofitted to the outside of the door, and the valve does not form any hidden parts, so that good access is possible if icing occurs in this area. If the sealing section is lifted from the support edge of the device housing by the handle, then air can flow freely into the cooling space from outside and bring about pressure equalization.
- the door opening force is then determined solely by the magnetic strip assigned to the seal, which is usually arranged in the seal and holds the latter in tight contact with the permanent magnetic support edge of the device housing. If the seal has a hollow chamber profile with an expansion fold and is fixed to the door, then the handle need only be provided with an actuating tab that engages behind this expansion fold to lift off the sealing section.
- a seal (4) with its inserted magnetic strip (5) rests on a support edge (3) that surrounds a cooling chamber (2).
- the seal (4) is located on a door (6) and has a hollow chamber profile (7) with an expansion fold (8) running in the longitudinal direction of the seal (4).
- the expansion fold (8) runs parallel to the longitudinal direction of the support edge (3).
- the hollow chamber profile (7) between the magnetic strip (5) and the supporting inner surface (9) of the door (6) serves to compensate for tolerances in the gap width between the support edge (3) and the inner surface (9) when the door (6) is closed.
- a fixed handle (10) with an integrally formed foot (11) is attached to the door (6).
- the door (6) is also assigned a handle (13) which has an actuating tab (14) which, with a single-ended bend (15), engages behind the expansion fold (8) on its flank facing the magnetic strip (5).
- the handle (13) is by kinking the seal opposite end of the actuating tab (14) is formed, this handle (13) between the user facing front surface of the door (6) and the actual handle (10).
- the handle (13) thus projects into the engagement opening (12).
- the handle (13) faces both the front surface of the door (6) or the foot (11) of the handle and on the other hand the handle (10) in a non-actuated position at a distance.
- the actuating tab (14) can be adjusted between the narrow outer end face (16) of the door (6) and a leg (17) of the foot (11) spanning the same perpendicular to the plane of the support edge (3) or the front of the door (6) guided.
- the handle (13) can extend as shown over a part, but also about the full clear height of the engagement opening (12).
- a lever device with the handle (13), which can be attached to the housing (1) and z. B. on a in the support edge (3) recessed lifting device, the seal (4) z. B. partially by means of a displaceable bolt from the support edge when the handle (13) is actuated.
- the handle only needs to be assigned a displaceable button which, for. B. is pressed when opening the door with the thumb and operated via a linkage, for example, a rocker mounted in the housing, which engages directly with one arm under the seal or adjusts a slide, bolt or the like to the seal and so the seal from the support edge partially takes off.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Kühl- oder Gefriergerät gemäß dem Obergriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a refrigerator or freezer according to the preamble of
Bei einem bekannten Kühlgerät dieser Art (DE-OS 32 05 963) ist als Handhabe zur Betätigung einer Tür ein schwenkbarer Handgriff vorgesehen, der beim Öffnen der Tür über eine Ventilanordnung einen Luftweg von außen in den vom Gerätegehäuse und der Tür umschlossenen Kühlraum freigibt. Die Ventilanordnung ist bei unbetätigtem Handgriff geschlossen. Dadurch baut sich nach einem dem Öffnen folgenden Schließen der Tür durch die Abkühlung der Luft und durch die dicht am Auflagerand des Gerätegehäuses aufliegende elastische Dichtung ein Unterdruck auf, der die Tür mit erheblicher Kraft in der Schließstellung hält. Dieser Unterdruck gleicht sich bei betätigter Handhabe über die damit gesteuerte Ventilanordnung aus. Abgesehen vom erheblichen baulichen Aufwand für eine so aufgebaute und gesteuerte Ventilanordnung besteht dabei auch die Gefahr, daß sich im Luftweg und an den Ventilflächen Schwitzwasser absetzt, das zu Kurosionen und damit zu Undichtheiten führt und andererseits im Luftweg gefrieren kann und denselben verschließt bzw. die Ventilanordnung blockiert.In a known cooling device of this type (DE-OS 32 05 963) a pivotable handle is provided as a handle for actuating a door, which releases an airway from the outside into the cooling space enclosed by the device housing and the door when the door is opened via a valve arrangement. The valve arrangement is closed when the handle is not actuated. As a result, after the door is closed after it has been opened, the air cools down and the elastic seal rests close to the support edge of the device housing, which holds the door in the closed position with considerable force. This vacuum balances itself out when the handle is actuated via the valve arrangement controlled thereby. In addition to the considerable structural outlay for a valve arrangement constructed and controlled in this way, there is also the risk that condensation water settles in the airway and on the valve surfaces, which leads to curvatures and thus to leaks and, on the other hand, can freeze in the airway and close it or close the valve arrangement blocked.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, bei einem Kühl- oder Gefriergerät gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 Maßnahmen zu treffen, durch die ein Druckausgleich zwischen der Außenatmosphäre und dem Kühlraum ohne die Anwendung besonderer Ventileinrichtungen auf einfache Weise eingeleitet werden kann.The invention has for its object to take measures in a refrigerator or freezer according to the preamble of
Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt gemäß der Erfindung durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Anspruchs 1.This object is achieved according to the invention by the characterizing features of
Bei einer Ausgestaltung eines Kühl- oder Gefriergerätes gemäß der Erfindung wird ein Abschnitt der für den dichten Verschluß ohnehin vorhandenen Dichtung als Ventilstrecke ausgenutzt. Hierzu braucht dem betreffenden Abschnitt lediglich eine einfache Aushebevorrichtung zugeordnet zu werden, die manuell zu betätigen ist. Die hierfür erforderliche Handhabe ist vorzugsweise einem Türgriff zugeordnet und wird zusammen mit letzterem beim Öffnungsvorgang der Tür betätigt. Die Abhebevorrichtung kann dabei nachträglich außen an der Tür angeordnet werden, und das Ventil bildet keine verdeckten Teile, so daß ein guter Zugriff möglich ist, falls eine Vereisung in diesem Bereich eintritt. Wird der Dichtungsabschnitt durch die Handhabe vom Auflagerand des Gerätegehäuses abgehoben, dann kann ungehindert Luft von außen in den Kühlraum einströmen und den Druckausgleich herbeiführen. Die Türöffnungskraft ist dann allein durch die der Dichtung zugeordnete Magnetleiste bestimmt, die üblicherweise in der Dichtung angeordnet ist und letztere in dichter Anlage mit dem permanentmagnetischen Auflagerand des Gerätegehäuses hält. Wenn die Dichtung ein Hohlkammerprofil mit einer Dehnugsfalte aufweist sowie an der Tür festgesetzt ist, dann braucht die Handhabe zum Abheben des Dichtungsabschnittes nur mit einer diese Dehnungsfalte hintergreifenden Betätigungslasche versehen zu sein.In one embodiment of a refrigerator or freezer according to the invention, a section of the seal, which is present anyway for the tight seal, is used as a valve path. For this purpose, only a simple lifting device that has to be operated manually needs to be assigned to the relevant section. The handle required for this is preferably assigned to a door handle and is actuated together with the latter when the door is opened. The lifting device can be retrofitted to the outside of the door, and the valve does not form any hidden parts, so that good access is possible if icing occurs in this area. If the sealing section is lifted from the support edge of the device housing by the handle, then air can flow freely into the cooling space from outside and bring about pressure equalization. The door opening force is then determined solely by the magnetic strip assigned to the seal, which is usually arranged in the seal and holds the latter in tight contact with the permanent magnetic support edge of the device housing. If the seal has a hollow chamber profile with an expansion fold and is fixed to the door, then the handle need only be provided with an actuating tab that engages behind this expansion fold to lift off the sealing section.

Bei einem nur auschnittsweise dargestellten Gehäuse (1) eines Kühl- oder Gefriergerätes liegt auf einem stirnseitigen, einen Kühlraum (2) umschließenden Auflagerand (3) eine Dichtung (4) mit ihrem eingelegten Magnetstreifen (5) auf. Die Dichtung (4) befindet sich an einer Tür (6) und weist ein Hohlkammerprofil (7) mit einer in Längsrichtung der Dichtung (4) verlaufenden Dehnungsfalte (8) auf. Die Dehnungsfalte (8) verläuft parallel zur Längsrichtung des Auflagerandes (3). Das Hohlkammerprofil (7) zwischen dem Magnetstreifen (5) und der tragenden Innenfläche (9) der Tür (6) dient zum Ausgleich von Toleranzen in der Spaltbreite zwischen dem Auflagerand (3) und der Innenfläche (9) bei geschlossener Tür (6). An der Tür (6) ist ein feststehender Handgriff (10) mit einem angeformten Fuß (11) festgesetzt. Zwischen der Frontseite der Tür (6) und dem Handgriff (10) befindet sich eine Eingrifföffnung (12), in die mit den Fingern einer Hand zum Öffnen der Tür (6) eingegriffen wird:In the case of a housing (1) of a refrigerator or freezer, which is only shown in sections, a seal (4) with its inserted magnetic strip (5) rests on a support edge (3) that surrounds a cooling chamber (2). The seal (4) is located on a door (6) and has a hollow chamber profile (7) with an expansion fold (8) running in the longitudinal direction of the seal (4). The expansion fold (8) runs parallel to the longitudinal direction of the support edge (3). The hollow chamber profile (7) between the magnetic strip (5) and the supporting inner surface (9) of the door (6) serves to compensate for tolerances in the gap width between the support edge (3) and the inner surface (9) when the door (6) is closed. A fixed handle (10) with an integrally formed foot (11) is attached to the door (6). There is an engagement opening (12) between the front of the door (6) and the handle (10), which is inserted with the fingers of one hand to open the door (6):
Der Tür (6) ist auch eine Handhabe (13) zugordnet, die eine Betätigungslasche (14) aufweist, die mit einer einendigen Abkröpfung (15) die Dehnungsfalte (8) an ihrer dem Magnetstreifen (5) zugewandten Flanke hintergreift. Die Handhabe (13) ist durch Abknicken des der Dichtung abgewandten Endes der Betätigungslasche (14) gebildet, wobei diese Handhabe (13) zwischen der dem Benutzer zugewandten Frontfläche der Tür (6) und dem eigentlichen Handgriff (10) liegt. Die Handhabe (13) ragt somit in die Eingrifföffnung (12). Dabei steht die Handhabe (13) sowohl der Frontfläche der Tür (6) bzw. dem Fuß (11) des Handgriffs und andererseits auch dem Handgriff (10) in unbetätigter Lage mit Abstand gegenüber. Die Betätigungslasche (14) ist zwischen der schmalen äußeren Stirnseite (16) der Tür (6) und einem dieselbe übergreifenden Schenkel (17) des Fußes (11) senkrecht zur Ebene des Auflagerandes (3) bzw. der Frontseite der Tür (6) verstellbar geführt. Die Handhabe (13) kann sich wie dargestellt über einen Teil, aber auch über etwa die volle lichte Höhe der Eingrifföffnung (12) erstrecken.The door (6) is also assigned a handle (13) which has an actuating tab (14) which, with a single-ended bend (15), engages behind the expansion fold (8) on its flank facing the magnetic strip (5). The handle (13) is by kinking the seal opposite end of the actuating tab (14) is formed, this handle (13) between the user facing front surface of the door (6) and the actual handle (10). The handle (13) thus projects into the engagement opening (12). The handle (13) faces both the front surface of the door (6) or the foot (11) of the handle and on the other hand the handle (10) in a non-actuated position at a distance. The actuating tab (14) can be adjusted between the narrow outer end face (16) of the door (6) and a leg (17) of the foot (11) spanning the same perpendicular to the plane of the support edge (3) or the front of the door (6) guided. The handle (13) can extend as shown over a part, but also about the full clear height of the engagement opening (12).
Wird nach einem Öffnen und anschließendem Schließen die Tür durch den nachfolgend im Kühlraum auftretenden Unterdruck zum Auflagerand (3) hin gezogen, dann kann der durch die Abkühlung der Luft entstehende Unterdruck infolge dicht schließender Dichtung (4) sich nicht mit der Außenatmosphäre ausgleichen. Die Tür (6) liegt dann mit erheblichem Druck auf dem Auflagerand (3) auf und läßt sich nicht oder nur unter entsprechendem Kraftaufwand öffnen, wenn kein Druckausgleich geschaffen wird. Um dies zu erreichen, kann beispielsweise mit einem Finger beim Erfassen des Handgriffs (10) zwischen den Fuß (11) des Handgriffs (10) und die Handhabe (13) eingegriffen werden. Durch die für das Öffnen der Tür erforderliche Zugbewegung wird dann über die Betätigungslasche die Abkröpfung (15) in Anlage mit der Dehnungsfalte (8) der Dichtung (4) gebracht, die beim weiteren Ziehen der Handhabe (13) zum Handgriff (10) hin im unmittelbar benachbarten Abschnitt (18) gemäß Figur (3) unter Zusammendrücken der Hohlkammer (7) abgehoben wird. Im Bereich des Abschnitts (18) kann dann Luft von außen in den Kühlraum (2) einströmen und den Druckausgleich herbeiführen. Dabei wird die Dehnungsfalte (8) nicht stärker als erforderlich zusammengepreßt, weil bei abgehobenem Magnetstreifen (5) die Handhabe (13) gegen die Innenseite des Handgriffs (10) stößt und ein weiteres Zusammenpreßen verhindert, wie es Figur 5 zeigt.If, after opening and then closing, the door is pulled towards the support edge (3) due to the negative pressure that subsequently occurs in the cold room, the negative pressure resulting from the cooling of the air due to the tightly fitting seal (4) cannot balance itself with the outside atmosphere. The door (6) then rests with considerable pressure on the support edge (3) and cannot be opened or can only be opened with the appropriate effort if no pressure equalization is created. To achieve this, for example, a finger can be engaged between the foot (11) of the handle (10) and the handle (13) when gripping the handle (10). Through the pulling movement required for opening the door, the offset (15) is then brought into contact with the expansion fold (8) of the seal (4) via the actuating tab, which in the further pulling of the handle (13) towards the handle (10) immediately adjacent section (18) according to FIG. (3) is lifted while compressing the hollow chamber (7). In the area of the section (18), air can then flow into the cooling space (2) from the outside and bring about pressure equalization. The expansion fold (8) is not compressed more than necessary because, when the magnetic strip (5) is lifted off, the handle (13) abuts against the inside of the handle (10) and prevents further compression, as shown in FIG. 5.
Daneben ist es auch möglich, mit der Handhabe (13) eine Hebelvorrichtung zu betätigen, die am Gehäuse (1) befestigt sein kann und z. B. über eine in den Auflagerand (3) eingelassene Aushebevorrichtung die Dichtung (4) z. B. mittels eines verschiebbaren Bolzens teilweise vom Auflagerand abdrückt, wenn die Handhabe (13) betätigt wird. Hierzu braucht beispielsweise dem Handgriff nur ein verschiebbarer Knopf zugeordnet werden, der z. B. beim Öffnen der Tür mit dem Daumen gedrückt wird und über ein Gestänge beispielsweise eine im Gehäuse gelagerte Wippe betätigt, die unmittelbar mit einem Arm unter die Dichtung greift oder einen Schieber, Bolzen oder dergleichen zur Dichtung hin verstellt und so die Dichtung vom Auflagerand teilweise abhebt.In addition, it is also possible to operate a lever device with the handle (13), which can be attached to the housing (1) and z. B. on a in the support edge (3) recessed lifting device, the seal (4) z. B. partially by means of a displaceable bolt from the support edge when the handle (13) is actuated. For this purpose, for example, the handle only needs to be assigned a displaceable button which, for. B. is pressed when opening the door with the thumb and operated via a linkage, for example, a rocker mounted in the housing, which engages directly with one arm under the seal or adjusts a slide, bolt or the like to the seal and so the seal from the support edge partially takes off.
