Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a Eis Sharechenper and equipped with such Eis Thuschenter refrigeration device.
  • Ice cube makers for use in household refrigerators are usually in the form of a flat carrier subdivided into a plurality of chambers or containers that can be filled with water and frozen in a freezer or freezer compartment of a combination refrigerator.
  • a known solution to this problem is to provide in a freezer a very low compartment with a retractable bottom, the height of which is such that it is sufficient for receiving an ice cube maker or cold packs.
  • the disadvantage here is that the volume of this compartment for other refrigerated goods in the long term is not usable.
  • a freezer is off US5749241 known.
  • Another freezer according to the preamble of claim 1 is made GB704314 known.
  • Object of the present invention is therefore to provide a Eis Sharingchenper that can be conveniently, space-saving and safe placed in a freezer compartment of a refrigerator without thereby Nutzvolument is blocked in the compartment when the ice cube maker is not needed.
  • the object is achieved by a refrigerator with a Eis Glachenper, with the features of claim 1.
  • This allows the ist- Attaching the Eis Glachenpers hung under this shelf in a volume that is usually available with incomplete filling of the compartment with frozen food.
  • the Eis Gichenper can therefore usually be attached without a rearrangement of frozen food is required.
  • the anchoring to the shelf also ensures safety against accidental tipping over. If the ice chip maker is not mounted, the appropriate volume can be used for any other frozen food.
  • projections or tabs for engagement with complementary tabs or projections of the bottom come into question.
  • the projections and tabs are arranged so as to allow horizontal movement of the ice piece maker for release from the underside or for attachment thereto.
  • a bolt is suitably provided to secure the attachment.
  • the Eis Swisschenper comprises a frame on which the means for releasably securing are arranged, and in which at least one carrier is inserted.
  • a rack can leave a user as long as he expects frequent use of the ice cube maker; It can be equipped by simply pushing in the carrier. When the contents of the carrier are frozen, the carrier is removed, but the rack can remain in place to be replenished.
  • means for releasably securing the Eis Swisschenrers complementary fastening means are arranged at at least two locations in the refrigerator. This gives the user the opportunity to mount the ice fritter at the more accessible of the two places.
  • the at least two locations are located on different sides of a vertical center plane of the refrigerator.
  • the complementary fastening means are arranged on a shelf.
  • a shelf which may be a plastic injection molded part, the fastening means can be molded with little effort, and in the case of a defect of a fastener, it is possible without difficulty to replace the affected shelf.
  • Fig. 1 shows a partial perspective view of a combination refrigerator with a freezer 1 with the door open 2.
  • the door 2 is struck on the left side of the housing of the refrigerator.
  • a frame 3 of a Eis Sharingchenpers is suspended from the underside of a shelf 4.
  • the frame 3 is substantially parallelepiped-shaped and open on its front side facing the door 2 and on its underside.
  • FIG. 2 is a longitudinal section through the frame along a plane designated by A-A in FIG.
  • FIG. 2 is a longitudinal section through the frame along a plane designated by A-A in FIG.
  • four substantially horizontally extending hooks 6 are formed, which are provided in order to attach the frame 3 to the shelf 4 from the front in below the shelf 4 eyelets 7 (see Fig. 4, 5) to be inserted.
  • the free end of the hooks 6 is in each case oriented in the direction of the rear end of the upper side 5 of the frame 3, so that the frame 3 can be mounted on the shelf 4 simply by pushing it in the depth direction.
  • a bolt 8 is formed in the form of a flexible tongue, which is cut free at the front end of the top 5 by two on either side of the median plane A-A symmetrically arranged slots 9 from the top 5.
  • the bolt 8 has an upwardly beyond the top 5 locking projection 10, a bevelled for comfortable pressing down with the finger, concave front 11 and an obliquely forward and downward extending gripping portion 12, which allows the latch 8 with two Fingers to pull him to unlock the bottom and to release the frame 3 from the shelf 4 to the front.
  • the side walls 13 of the frame 3 have on their insides vertically oriented reinforcing ribs 14 and horizontally oriented upper and lower guide rails 15 and 16, respectively.
  • the upper guide rails 15 each have an over the greater part of the length of the side wall 13 extending, horizontal main section 17 and forward (to the right in Fig. 2 and down in Fig. 3) thereafter one at an angle of 10 -20 ° obliquely upwardly extending insertion portion 18.
  • the lower guide rails 16 each have a horizontal main section 19 and an insertion section 20 extending obliquely downward at an angle of 10-20 °.
  • At least one latching recess 27 is formed on the main sections 19.
  • the upper and lower guide rails 15, 16 each delimit a guide channel into which a flat carrier shown in a side view in FIG. 4 can be inserted with its side edges 21.
  • each guide channel is widened towards the open front side of the frame 3 so as to facilitate the insertion of the carrier 23.
  • On the lower sides of both side edges 21 is a projection in each case 22 integrally formed, which comes to lie in fully inserted into the guide channel carrier 23 in the latching recess (27) of the lower guide rail 16.
  • the maximum insertion depth of the carrier 23 in the guide channel is defined by a front plate 25 of the carrier, which projects laterally beyond the side edges 21 and comes to lie in the fully inserted state at the front edge 26 of the side walls 13.
  • the carrier 23 is divided into a plurality of individual containers or chambers 28 for each ice cube.
  • two guide channels on each side wall 13 are present.
  • a single guide channel or more than two guide channels could be provided.
  • the insertion portions 18, 19 of adjacent guide rails are each connected at their front ends by a vertical web portion 29, which prevents insertion of a carrier 23 between two guide channels.
  • Fig. 5 shows in the right and in the left area of the storage area 30, two arrangements of four lugs 7, which are provided to receive each one of the four hooks 6 formed on the top of the frame 3.
  • the eyelets 7 are formed by two diverging towards the front of the shelf 4 vertical side panels 32 which are connected by a horizontal web 33. The divergent arrangement of the side parts 32 serves to facilitate the insertion of the hooks 6 from the front.
  • eyelets 7 There are two arrangements of eyelets 7 are provided so that a user can hang the frame 3 to choose right or left of the vertical center plane of the refrigerator.
  • a user In the case of a right-side door stop, as shown in Fig. 1, a user is more likely to choose a left side suspension of the frame 3, since it is already at an opening angle the door 2 is less than 90 ° possible to insert a carrier 23 in the frame 3 or to remove it.
  • the downwardly open U-shaped reinforcing profile 31 has the additional function of receiving the locking projection 10 of the bolt 8 in the region of the front edge of the shelf 4.
  • the eyelets 7 or other means for releasably securing a rack in the manner of the frame 3 could also be attached to any other horizontal underside of the refrigerator, e.g. on the ceiling of the freezer compartment 1, be provided. It would be conceivable to mold them directly to the inner wall of the refrigerator, or to attach a support member for the fasteners to the ceiling, such as by gluing or screwing.
  • FIG. 1 A simplified embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG.
  • fastening hooks 6 and a bolt 8 which in construction and function in each case the corresponding parts of the in Figs. 2, 3 shown, formed directly on a subdivided into a plurality of ice cube chambers 28 carrier 35.
  • Such a support can be attached directly to the shelf 4, without the aid of a rack in the manner of the frame 3.
