Definitions
- the present invention relates to a refrigerator and / or freezer with a body and a door for closing an opening of the device body, wherein a pivot bearing is provided, which the door relative to the device body a pivot axis is pivotally mounted.
- Refrigerators and freezers usually have an elastic seal on their door with an integrated magnet that holds the sealing bead on the door onto the sealing contact surface pull on the device body. Because of the geometric conditions such swing doors is, however, in particular in the Area of the door, the desired, optimal sealing layer Not reached despite the inclined magnet in the sealing profile. The magnet pulls the seal prematurely onto the device body, so that the seal does not lie optimally and can walk when the door is pivoted further. Both lead to an unsatisfactory seal, which in freezers to one Increased freezing of the freezer compartment leads to premature wear the seal leads.
- Figure 11 shows a known refrigerator in the area of the sealing pad between hinged door and device body, the door being closed is shown with an optimally fitting seal.
- the device body 1 has one essentially flat seal bearing surface 2, on which the seal 3, which on the Door 6 is attached, rests.
