Definitions
- the invention relates to a household cooling device with a usable space for receiving refrigerated goods and with a heat pump for cooling the working space.
- the term "household refrigerator” here refers to a household refrigerating appliance, in particular a refrigerator, a freezer or another device for refrigerating foodstuffs, including beverages.
- Refrigerators, freezers, climate cabinets for beverages typically have a work space for holding the chilled goods and a heat pump for chilling the work space.
- Heat pumps are not very flexible in use, ie they can not be adapted very well to the respective requirements. If, for example, different parts of the usable space are to be kept at different temperatures, complex mechanical components such as additional valves or additional evaporators are required. If certain temperatures are to be maintained very precisely, a complex control and control of the heat pump is required.
- the household refrigerator has, in addition to the heat pump, at least one Peltier element for additional cooling of the interior of a chamber.
- the Peltier element is arranged and configured such that it is able to additionally cool the interior of the chamber.
- additional cooling is meant that the Peltier element is arranged and controlled in such a way that it is able to produce a lower temperature in the interior of the chamber than without the Peltier element or with the Peltier switched off Element would be the case.
- a Peltier element can be controlled or controlled much easier than a heat pump, a higher flexibility is achieved than with only the heat pump.
- the heat pump can take over a major load of cooling, so that a Peltier element only low power is needed.
- the Peltier element is arranged such that a first side of the Peltier element can be cooled by the heat pump.
- first side is to be understood as one of the thermally active, ie, coolable or heatable, sides of the Peltier element.
- the device may have a controller that is configured to control the Peltier element to selectively cool or heat the chamber.
- the current through the Peltier element can be reversed by the controller.
- the interior of the chamber and the working space of the cooling device can be cooled directly from the evaporator of the heat pump, and in particular the evaporator is designed so that more heat is dissipated per evaporator surface unit from the interior than from the work space.
- the chamber is arranged at the bottom of the work space.
- the Peltier element is arranged on a wall of the chamber, which adjoins the work space and not to the evaporator.
- the Peltier element may be disposed on an upper wall of the chamber where it is in thermal contact with the work space.
- a fan may be provided, with which an air flow over one side of the Peltier element can be generated. In this way, the heat transfer between the Peltier element and the interior or chamber can be improved.
- the household refrigerating appliance can be, in particular, a refrigerator, a freezer or a drinks cooler (including a climatic cabinet for wine), the temperature ranges being adapted accordingly.
- a Peltier element is not a heat pump in this sense.
- the refrigerator according to Fig. 1 has an interior 1 for receiving the refrigerated goods.
- the interior for example shelves or grids 2 are provided to store the refrigerated goods.
- a door 3 gives the user access to the interior.
- a heat pump For the cooling of the interior is primarily a heat pump.
- This comprises in a known manner a compressor 4, with which a fluid through a capacitor 5 outside the device, an expansion valve or a simple capillary (not shown) and an evaporator 6 is performed.
- the evaporator 6 respectively. the surface thereof, which is in thermal contact with the inner space 1, cooled, while the condenser 5 heat to the Environment gives off.
- the evaporator is disposed adjacent to an inner wall 8 of the inner space 1, within the insulation.
- At or in the interior 2 at least one Peltier element 7, 12 is provided.
- a first Peltier element 7 is arranged on or in the inner wall 8 of the inner space 1, so that a first (facing away from the interior 1) of the two active sides of the Peltier element 7 is thermally coupled to the evaporator 6, while the second side to Interior is oriented towards.
- the Peltier element 7 protrudes beyond the wall surface into the interior 1.
- the Peltier element 7 can also be arranged at least partially sunk in the inner wall 8, as in Fig. 2 is illustrated, so that the surface is substantially flat or at least less protruding in the region of the Peltier element. This simplifies the cleaning of the same.
- a chamber 10 which has an insulation 11 against the work space 1.
- a Peltier element 12 serves to cool the interior 13 of the chamber 10.
- the chamber 11 may be completely isolated from the imaginary space 1, or even partially so as to be e.g. to allow at least limited air exchange.
- the insulation 11 is preferably made of thermal insulating material, but at low temperature differences, walls e.g. made of plastic.
- the chamber 10 is designed as a removable unit from the work space 1, ie the chamber 10 can be removed as a whole the work space 1. This allows flexible configuration of the device with or without chamber 10.
- the Peltier element 12 is preferably disposed on or in the chamber 10 and forms a unit therewith.
- the Peltier element 12 preferably extends through the insulation 11 of the chamber 10, so that the heat can be dissipated from its outer side.
- the Peltier element 12 is preferably arranged on the chamber 10 such that its outer active side can be brought into thermal contact with a surface cooled by the heat pump, preferably the surface of the inner wall 8 adjacent to the evaporator 6.
- a power transmission system 14 is provided. This is carried out in two parts, the two parts are suitable to provide the Peltier element 12 with inserted chamber 10 with power.
- the power transmission system is formed by contacts 15 on the chamber 10 and in the interior 1.
- the contacts 15 may be configured, for example, as plug contacts or touch contacts. It is also conceivable to use an inductive power transmission system.
- the chamber 10 can be removed from the interior 1.
- the chamber 10 may also be arranged fixed in or on the inner space 1.
- a fan 16 may be provided which generates an air flow over the one side of the Peltier element 7 or 12.
- this fan 16 is arranged in the interior 1 in order to cover the Peltier element 7 with an air flow.
- a fan may also be provided on or in the chamber 10 to generate there air flow for the Peltier element 12.
- the operation of the Peltier element 7 or 12 as well as that of the heat pump 4 - 6 is controlled by a controller 18 of the device. This can be done with temperature sensors be coupled to perform a temperature control in the interior 1 and 13 respectively.
- the interior 13 of chamber 10 may be e.g. be controlled to a temperature in a range of below 0 ° C to about 4 ° C, e.g. for storing meat in a refrigerator. For storage of vegetables and salad should not fall below the temperature of 0.5 ° C. Since the temperature can be regulated more accurately and faster with a Peltier element than with a heat pump, this temperature can be maintained with high accuracy.
- a temperature sensor 19 thermally connected to the interior 13 should preferably be provided on or in the chamber 10. The temperature sensor may also be provided in the region of the Peltier element 7.
- the refrigerator is configured such that the temperature in the chamber 10, i. in the interior 13, by 1 to 10 ° C below the temperature in the working space 1 is located.
- Chamber 10 may also form a freezer compartment of a refrigerator, or a blast freezer compartment in a freezer. In this case, the temperature ranges are correspondingly lower. It can also be permanently installed in the device.
- the controller 18 may also be configured such that the Peltier element 7 or 12 either selectively cools or heats the part of the work space assigned to it. This can e.g. in the context of a temperature control to a temperature close to the (fluctuating) temperature in the rest of the interior 1, or for defrosting the Peltier element and its surroundings.
- FIG. 3 Another version of the refrigerator is in Fig. 3 shown.
- This embodiment differs from that according to Fig. 1 in that the Peltier element 12 is not arranged on the back of the chamber 10, but advantageously on an upper wall. In other words, the Peltier element 12 is thus on a wall of the chamber 10, which adjoins the work space 1 and not to the evaporator 6 containing inner wall 8.
- the execution is after Fig. 3 the interior 13 of the chamber 10 is not thermally insulated against the evaporator 6, so that not only the working space 1, but also the inner space 13 can be cooled directly by the evaporator 6.
- the working space 1 and the inner space 13 respectively directly adjoin the (same) evaporator 6.
- the evaporator 6 is advantageously designed so that it is able to dissipate more heat from the interior 13 per evaporator unit area (ie per backplane) than from the work space 1 by per evaporator unit area in the area 6b of the interior 13 of the Chamber 10 more lines of the evaporator are arranged as in the area 6a of the usable space 1.
- the temperature in the chamber 10 is slightly lower than in the usable space. 1
- the controller 18 is as MIMO control ("Multiple Input Multiple Output"). Control) configured, which controls the measured by the temperature sensors 19 and 20 temperatures in the interior 13 of the chamber 10 and in the work space 1 to two different setpoints by the heat pump 4 - 6 and the Peltier element 12 controls accordingly.
- MIMO control Multiple Input Multiple Output
- the power of the heat pump 4 - 6 is increased to lower the temperature in the working space 1 again. But to a freezing To prevent the Guts in the chamber 10, the Peltier element 12 is simultaneously operated so that it promotes heat from the work space 1 into the chamber 12.
- each fan 21a and 21b arranged to improve the heat coupling of the Peltier element 12 to the work space 1 and the chamber 12, respectively.
- each fan 21a, 21b associated with an air duct 22a and 22b, respectively, in which the fan moving air of the surface of the Peltier element 12 is guided along.
- the chamber 10 is not removable from the device. However, it can also be designed removable. It is also conceivable that the insulation 11, which in the embodiment according to Fig. 3 is designed as an intermediate floor between the usable space 1 and the interior 13 of the chamber 10, the device can be removed, for example for cleaning purposes.
- the chamber is arranged at the bottom of the work space.
