Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen KĆ¼hlschrank oder Klimaschrank gemƤƟ dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a refrigerator or climatic cabinet according to the preamble of claim 1.

Aus der DE 11 2006 000 823 T5 ist ein derartiger KĆ¼hlschrank mit zumindest einem gekĆ¼hlten Raum bekannt, der einen durch einen Fachboden abgeteilten Teilraum oder Fach fĆ¼r ein BehƤltnis mit einer offenen Oberseite besitzt. Dem BehƤltnis ist ein Deckel zugeordnet, der im Teilraum gelagert ist, wobei die Haltemittel fĆ¼r den Deckel derart ausgebildet sind, dass dieser in zumindest einem geƶffneten Zustand einen Spalt zum BehƤltnis freigibt und in einem geschlossenen Zustand das BehƤltnis verschlieƟt. Die gesamte FĆ¼hrung des Deckels ist recht aufwƤndig, ferner kann das BehƤltnis nur spaltweise geƶffnet werden, was bei einem hohen Feuchtigkeitsaufkommen im BehƤltnis zur AbfĆ¼hrung der Feuchtigkeit nicht ausreicht. In diesem Fall ist auch ein Klimaausgleich innerhalb des KĆ¼hlraumes bzw. innerhalb des Teilraumes nicht optimal mƶglich.From the DE 11 2006 000 823 T5 Such a refrigerator with at least one refrigerated space is known, which has a partitioned by a shelf compartment or compartment for a container with an open top. The container is associated with a lid which is mounted in the subspace, wherein the holding means for the lid are formed such that it releases a gap to the container in at least one open state and closes the container in a closed state. The entire leadership of the lid is quite complex, further, the container can be opened only in columns, which is not sufficient for a high moisture content in the container to dissipate the moisture. In this case, a climate compensation within the refrigerator or within the subspace is not optimally possible.

Aus der DE 10 2007 005 953 A1 ist ein KĆ¼hlschrank bekannt, der ein BehƤltnis mit einem im KĆ¼hlraum gelagerten Deckel umfasst, der mit einer sogenannten Diffusionsschicht abgedeckt werden kann. Unterhalb der Diffusionsschicht umfasst der Deckel eine Vielzahl von Ɩffnungen, die aus der DeckelflƤche verteilt angeordnet sind. Zur Regulierung des Luftaustauschs kƶnnen die Ɩffnungen mittels einer verschiebbaren Lochplatte verschlossen werden. Hierbei kann ein Luftaustausch nur auf der Oberseite im Deckel des BehƤltnisses stattfinden, sodass eine gute Durchmischung der Luft bzw. eine gleichmƤƟige Luftfeuchtigkeit innerhalb des BehƤltnisses nicht sichergestellt werden kann.From the DE 10 2007 005 953 A1 a refrigerator is known which comprises a container with a lid mounted in the refrigerator, which can be covered with a so-called diffusion layer. Below the diffusion layer, the lid comprises a plurality of openings which are distributed from the lid surface. To regulate the air exchange, the openings can be closed by means of a displaceable perforated plate. In this case, an air exchange can take place only on the top in the lid of the container, so that a good mixing of the air or a uniform humidity inside the container can not be ensured.

Die DE 197 51 309 A1 offenbart einen KĆ¼hlschrank, der ein oben offenes, mit einer Abdeckplatte und einem Deckel verschlossenes BehƤltnis umfasst. Der Deckel kann aufgeklappt werden, um den Zugang zum BehƤlterinneren zu erleichtern. In der feststehenden Abdeckplatte sind im hinteren Bereich verschlieƟbare Ɩffnungen zur Regulierung der Luftfeuchtigkeit im BehƤltnis angebracht. Eine Ƥhnliche Anordnung in einem KĆ¼hlschrank ist aus der DE 296 11 644 U1 bekannt, bei der an der feststehenden Abdeckplatte aus der Innenseite ein Einsatz mit einem Feuchtefilter angebracht ist.The DE 197 51 309 A1 discloses a refrigerator comprising an open-topped container closed with a cover plate and a lid. The lid can be opened to facilitate access to the interior of the container. In the fixed cover plate closable openings for regulating the humidity in the container are mounted in the rear area. A similar arrangement in a refrigerator is from the DE 296 11 644 U1 known, in which on the fixed cover plate from the inside of an insert with a moisture filter is mounted.

Die WO 2004/038 312 A1 offenbart einen KĆ¼hlschrank, der ein oben offenes, mit einer Abdeckplatte I verschlossenes BehƤltnis umfasst. Die Abdeckplatte umfasst ihrerseits Ɩffnungen, die jeweils mit schwenkbaren Klappen geƶffnet oder verschlossen werden kƶnnen. In einer anderen AusfĆ¼hrung kann die Abdeckplatte vom Ɩffnungsrand angehoben werden.The WO 2004/038 312 A1 discloses a refrigerator comprising an open top, closed with a cover plate I container. The cover plate in turn comprises openings, which can be opened or closed with swiveling flaps. In another embodiment, the cover plate can be lifted from the opening edge.

Der Erfindung stellt sich somit die Aufgabe, einen KĆ¼hlschrank bereitzustellen, bei dem auf einfache Weise eine optimale Einstellung der Luftfeuchtigkeit innerhalb zumindest einer KĆ¼hlzone ausgewƤhlt bzw. vorgenommen werden kann.Thus, the object of the invention is to provide a refrigerator in which a simple adjustment of the air humidity within at least one cooling zone can be selected or made.

ErfindungsgemƤƟ wird die Aufgabe durch einen KĆ¼hl- oder Klimaschrank mit den Merkmalen des unabhƤngigen Anspruchs 1 gelƶst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den nachfolgenden abhƤngigen AnsprĆ¼chen.According to the invention the object is achieved by a cooling or climatic cabinet with the features of independent claim 1. Advantageous embodiments and modifications of the invention will become apparent from the following dependent claims.

Die mit der Erfindung erreichbaren Vorteile bestehen, darin, dass auf einfache Weise der Luftaustausch, also die Luftzufuhr in das BehƤltnis und die Luftabfuhr aus dem BehƤltnis in den KĆ¼hlraum eingestellt werden kann. In der verschlossenen Position des Deckels ist das BehƤltnis hinreichend gegenĆ¼ber dem KĆ¼hlraum getrennt, sodass eine gleichbleibend hohe Luftfeuchtigkeit im BehƤltnis gewƤhrleistet ist. Bei geƶffnetem Deckel wird durch die zumindest einseitige Anhebung des Deckels ein gutes Einstrƶmen der KĆ¼hlraumluft in das BehƤltnis und durch die zusƤtzlichen offenen Ɩffnungen im Deckel ein Herausstrƶmen bzw. ein weiterer Luftaustausch zwischen KĆ¼hlraum und BehƤlterinnerem bereitgestellt. Dies ist besonders dann vorteilhaft, wenn das im BehƤltnis befindliche KĆ¼hlgut trockene Luft benƶtigt. Hierzu ist im Deckel, der zum Ɩffnen angehoben werden kann, ferner zumindest eine verschlieƟbare Ɩffnung angeordnet. Diese zusƤtzliche Ɩffnung oder die zusƤtzlichen Ɩffnungen sind besonders einfach in den Deckel einzubringen, ohne dass zusƤtzlicher Bewegungsraum fĆ¼r den Deckel selbst im KĆ¼hlraum vorgehalten werden muss.The achievable with the present invention consist in that in a simple way the air exchange, so the air supply into the container and the air discharge from the container can be adjusted in the refrigerator. In the closed position of the lid, the container is sufficiently separated from the cold room, so that a consistently high humidity is ensured in the container. When the cover is opened by the at least one-sided raising of the lid, a good inflow of the cooling chamber air into the container and through the additional open openings in the lid, an outflow or a further exchange of air between the refrigerator and container interior provided. This is particularly advantageous if the refrigerated goods in the container requires dry air. For this purpose, at least one closable opening is further arranged in the lid, which can be raised for opening. This additional opening or the additional openings are particularly easy to introduce into the lid, without additional space for the lid itself must be kept in the refrigerator.

In einer zweckmƤƟigen AusfĆ¼hrung umfasst der Deckel zum Ɩffnen und zum VerschlieƟen der Ɩffnungen zumindest eine im oder am Deckel verschiebbare Platte, die im Wesentlichen parallel zur Erstreckung des Deckels gelagert ist, die durch Verschieben in zumindest eine erste Position ein VerschlieƟen und in zumindest eine zweite Position ein Ɩffnen der Ɩffnungen im Deckel bereitstellt. Dadurch wird auf einfache Weise eine extrem platzsparende Anordnung des Verschlussmittels bereitgestellt.In an expedient embodiment, the lid for opening and closing the openings comprises at least one plate which is displaceable in or on the lid and which is mounted substantially parallel to the extension of the lid, which closes by sliding in at least one first position and at least in a second position provides an opening of the openings in the lid. As a result, an extremely space-saving arrangement of the closure means is provided in a simple manner.

In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung weisen die FĆ¼hrungsmittel zum FĆ¼hren des Deckels Kulissenbahnen auf, die mit an der Platte angebrachten FĆ¼hrungsvorsprĆ¼ngen zusammenwirken, die ortsfest im KĆ¼hlraum angeordnet sind. Das bedeutet, dass der Deckel mit dem Mechanismus zum Verfahren der Position und der Platte praktisch nicht entfernbar innerhalb des KĆ¼hlraumes angeordnet ist. Somit ist stets eine zuverlƤssige Funktion des Deckels gegeben, unabhƤngig von der Position des darunter befindlichen BehƤltnisses. Alle Richtungs- und Positionsangaben beziehen sich auf die betriebsgemƤƟe Aufstellposition des KĆ¼hl- oder Klimaschranks.In an advantageous development, the guide means for guiding the cover slide tracks, which cooperate with mounted on the plate guide projections which are arranged stationary in the cold room. This means that the lid with the mechanism for moving the position and the plate is arranged practically non-removable within the cold room. Thus, a reliable function of the lid is always given, regardless of the position of the underlying container. All direction and position information refer to the operational installation position of the refrigerated or climatic cabinet.

In einer zweckmƤƟigen Weiterbildung ist die Platte mittels einer Nut-Feder- Verbindung am Deckel verschiebbar gefĆ¼hrt. Somit kann die Platte auch eine Hubbewegung des Deckels bewirken.In an expedient development, the plate is slidably guided by means of a tongue and groove connection on the lid. Thus, the plate can also cause a lifting movement of the lid.

In einer weiteren Weiterbildung sind die Kulissenbahnen in Adapterleisten angeordnet, die jeweils an Innenseiten der SeitenwƤnde des KĆ¼hlraumes oder KĆ¼hlkammer angebracht sind. Dadurch kann die InnenflƤche der SeitenwƤnde ohne Einformungen hergestellt werden, da eine filigrane Kulissenbahn in einem separaten Spritzgussteil oder FrƤsteil eingearbeitet werden kann. Ferner ist eine Variantenbildung oder eine nachtrƤgliche AusrĆ¼stung des KĆ¼hlschranks mit einem entsprechenden Funktionsdeckel mƶglich. Insgesamt wird dadurch auch die Montage entsprechend vereinfacht.In a further development, the slide tracks are arranged in adapter strips, which are each attached to inner sides of the side walls of the cooling chamber or cooling chamber. As a result, the inner surface of the side walls can be produced without indentations, since a filigree slide track can be incorporated in a separate injection molded part or milled part. Furthermore, a variant or a subsequent equipment of the Refrigerator with a corresponding function cover possible. Overall, the assembly is thereby simplified accordingly.

In einer insgesamt vorteilhaften AusfĆ¼hrung ist die Platte am Deckel derart gefĆ¼hrt, dass ein Verschieben der Platte zum Ɩffnen der Ɩffnungen ferner ein Anheben des Deckels bewirkt. Damit wird beim Verschieben der Platte zusƤtzlich zur Ɩffnungsbewegung zum Ɩffnen der Deckelƶffnung als Kombinationsbewegung ein Anheben des Deckels an zumindest einer Seite bewirkt. Der Benutzer kann somit bei einer einzigen Bedienhandlung beide Ɩffnungsbewegungen verursachen. Das VerschlieƟen des Deckels geschieht durch die umgekehrte Bewegungsrichtung der Platte, wobei hierbei das Absenken des Deckels in kombinierter Bewegung mit dem VerschlieƟen der Ɩffnung erfolgt. Zur Bereitstellung dieses kombinierten Bewegungsablaufs ist die oben genannte Steuerkurve entsprechend ausgebildet.In an overall advantageous embodiment, the plate is guided on the cover such that a displacement of the plate for opening the openings also causes a lifting of the lid. Thus, in addition to the opening movement for opening the lid opening as a combination movement, a lifting of the lid is effected on at least one side when moving the plate. The user can thus cause both opening movements in a single operation. The closing of the lid is done by the reverse direction of movement of the plate, in which case the lowering of the lid takes place in combined movement with the closing of the opening. To provide this combined movement, the above-mentioned cam is designed accordingly.

In einer insgesamt zweckmƤƟigen AusfĆ¼hrung ist der Deckel mittels einer Schwenkachse schwenkbar gelagert, wobei die Schwenkachse an der Frontseite des KĆ¼hl- oder Klimaschranks angeordnet ist. Somit ist eine stabile Lagerung und entsprechend zuverlƤssige Anmutung gegeben.In an overall expedient embodiment, the lid is pivotally mounted by means of a pivot axis, wherein the pivot axis is arranged on the front side of the refrigerating or climatic cabinet. Thus, a stable storage and correspondingly reliable appearance is given.

In einer weiteren, insgesamt zweckmƤƟigen Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist der KĆ¼hlraum mittels ortsfester oder einlegbarer Bƶden in zumindest zwei Ć¼bereinander liegende KĆ¼hl- oder Klimazonen unterteilt, wobei das BehƤltnis mit dem beweglichen Deckel in zumindest einer KĆ¼hl- oder Klimazone unterhalb eines Bodens angeordnet ist. ZweckmƤƟigerweise ist der oben genannte Deckel fĆ¼r zumindest ein sogenanntes Obst und GemĆ¼sefach oder Kaltlagerfach im unteren Abteil des KĆ¼hlraumes vorgesehen.In a further, altogether expedient development of the invention, the cooling space is divided by means of stationary or insertable floors into at least two superimposed cooling or climatic zones, wherein the container is arranged with the movable lid in at least one cooling or climatic zone below a floor. Conveniently, the above-mentioned cover is provided for at least one so-called fruit and vegetable compartment or cold storage compartment in the lower compartment of the refrigerator compartment.

In einer weiteren, zweckmƤƟigen AusfĆ¼hrung ist am Deckel eine Handhabe zum Verschieben der Platte entlang einer zumindest Ć¼berwiegend horizontalen Verschieberichtung vorgesehen. Somit wird dem Benutzer auf die Mƶglichkeiten der sogenannten Lustfeuchtigkeitsregulierung durch die sichtbare Bedienhandhabe aufmerksam gemacht, wobei aufgrund der Logik der Bedienung Fehlbedienungen weitestgehend vermieden werden.In a further expedient embodiment, a handle for displacing the plate along an at least predominantly horizontal displacement direction is provided on the lid. Thus, the user is made aware of the possibilities of the so-called pleasure moisture regulation by the visible operating handle, which due to the logic of the operation operator errors are largely avoided.

In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung ist die Handhabe am Deckel derart gefĆ¼hrt, dass durch die FĆ¼hrung verschiedene Feststellpositionen der Platte zur Bereitstellung unterschiedlicher Ɩffnungsquerschnitte der Ɩffnungen und Spaltbreiten zwischen Deckel und BehƤlterrand bereitgestellt werden kƶnnen.In an advantageous development, the handle on the cover is guided in such a way that different locking positions of the plate for providing different opening cross sections of the openings and gap widths between the cover and container rim can be provided by the guide.

Hierzu ist in einer AusfĆ¼hrung eine Anordnung von Kulissenbahnen mit entsprechend wirkenden Federmitteln vorgesehen, um eine sogenannte Push-Pull-Bewegung der Handhabe und dadurch eine eindeutige Bewegung der Platte und des Deckels zu bewirken. Ferner wird eine angenehme, taktile RĆ¼ckmeldung der erfolgten Bedienhandlung an den Benutzer Ć¼bermittelt bzw. bereitgestellt.For this purpose, in one embodiment, an arrangement of slide tracks provided with correspondingly acting spring means to a so-called push-pull movement of Handle and thereby cause a clear movement of the plate and the lid. Furthermore, a pleasant, tactile feedback of the action taken is transmitted to the user or provided.

In einer anderen AusfĆ¼hrung ist die Einschubbewegung oder Ausziehbewegung der Bedienhandhabe am Deckel mittels Rastmittel beeinflusst, um durch die Rastungen eine eindeutige Ɩffnungsposition des Deckels in Verbindung mit einer taktilen RĆ¼ckmeldung an den Benutzer zu bewirken.In another embodiment, the insertion movement or withdrawal movement of the operating handle on the cover is influenced by latching means to cause by the notches a clear opening position of the lid in conjunction with a tactile feedback to the user.

In einer insgesamt vorteilhaften AusfĆ¼hrung umfasst der Deckel ein Lochbild aus einer Anordnung einer Mehrzahl von Ɩffnungen, wobei die Platte ein entsprechend korrespondierendes Lochbild aus einer Anordnung einer Mehrzahl von Ɩffnungen umfasst. Dadurch wird erreicht, dass in einer Offenposition das Lochbild der Platte mit dem Lochbild im Deckel zumindest Ć¼berwiegend Ć¼bereinstimmt, wobei in der geschlossenen Position das Lochbild der Platte gegenĆ¼ber dem Lochbild des Deckels derart parallel vershoben ist, dass die Ɩffnungen im Deckel geschlossen sind. Aufgrund der Mehrzahl von Ɩffnungen, die auf der DeckelflƤche verteilt angeordnet sind, kann in der Offenstellung ein sehr guter Luftaustausch zwischen BehƤltnis und KĆ¼hlraum erreicht werden.In an overall advantageous embodiment, the cover comprises a hole pattern of an arrangement of a plurality of openings, wherein the plate comprises a correspondingly corresponding hole pattern of an arrangement of a plurality of openings. This ensures that in an open position, the hole pattern of the plate with the hole pattern in the lid at least predominantly coincides, in the closed position, the hole pattern of the plate against the hole pattern of the lid is parallel geschhoben such that the openings are closed in the lid. Due to the plurality of openings, which are arranged distributed on the cover surface, a very good exchange of air between the container and the refrigerator can be achieved in the open position.

In einer insgesamt zweckmƤƟigen AusfĆ¼hrung ist das BehƤltnis als aus dem KĆ¼hlraum herausnehmbare Schublade ausgebildet, wobei der Deckel zum Verbleib innerhalb des KĆ¼hlraumes gelagert und / oder gefĆ¼hrt ist.In an overall expedient embodiment, the container is designed as a drawer removable from the refrigerator, wherein the lid is stored and / or guided to remain within the cooling space.

In einer weiteren, insgesamt vorteilhaften AusfĆ¼hrung ist der Deckel an seiner dem Ɩffnungsrand zugewandten Seite mit Gleitmitteln versehen. Dadurch kann der Deckel auf dem oberen Rand des BehƤltnisses aufliegen, wenn er geschlossen ist. Das BehƤltnis kann bei dieser Deckelposition leichtgƤngig aus dem Teilraum bzw. KĆ¼hlraum herausgezogen oder eingeschoben werden.In a further, altogether advantageous embodiment, the cover is provided on its side facing the edge of the opening with lubricants. This allows the lid to rest on the upper edge of the container when it is closed. The container can be easily pulled or pushed out of the subspace or refrigerator in this lid position.

Fig. 1 zeigt beispielhaft einen KĆ¼hl- oder Klimaschrank 1 in einer Gesamtansicht von der Beladungsseite her gesehen. Der dargestellte KĆ¼hlschrank umfasst einen KĆ¼hlraum 2, der in der gezeigten AusfĆ¼hrung mittels fester Fachbƶden 12 in mehrere TeilrƤume mit jeweils entsprechenden KĆ¼hl- oder Klimazonen 2a, 2b und 2c unterteilt ist. Der gesamte KĆ¼hlraum 2 kann mit der TĆ¼r 3 verschlossen werden. Zur Erzeugung der kĆ¼hlen Luft besitzt der KĆ¼hlschrank 1 zumindest ein KĆ¼hlaggregat 5, das durch einen KĆ¼hlluftaustritt einen Temperaturaustausch und damit eine KĆ¼hlung der Luft im KĆ¼hlraum 2 bewirkt. Der KĆ¼hlraum 2 umfasst ferner mehrere weitere Fachbƶden 12, die zweckmƤƟigerweise an den Innenseiten der SeitenwƤnde 17a und 17b verschiebbar gehalten und herausnehmbar ausgefĆ¼hrt sind. Im unteren Bereich in der KĆ¼hlzone 2b und 2c sind BehƤltnisse 4 eingesetzt, wobei zumindest einem BehƤltnis 4 ein Deckel 7 zur kontrollierten Einstellung der Luftfeuchtigkeit innerhalb des BehƤltnisses 4 zugeordnet ist. Fig. 1 shows an example of a cooling or climatic cabinet 1 in an overall view of the loading side seen. The refrigerator shown comprises a cooling space 2, which is subdivided in the embodiment shown by means of fixed shelves 12 into a plurality of subspaces each having respective cooling or climatic zones 2a, 2b and 2c. The entire refrigerator 2 can be closed with the door 3. To generate the cool air, the refrigerator 1 has at least one cooling unit 5, which causes a cooling air outlet temperature exchange and thus cooling of the air in the cooling chamber 2. The cooling space 2 further comprises a plurality of further shelves 12, which are expediently held displaceably on the insides of the side walls 17a and 17b and made removable. At the bottom of the cooling zone 2b and 2c containers 4 are used, wherein at least one container 4, a lid 7 for the controlled adjustment of the humidity within the container 4 is assigned.

Fig. 2 zeigt in einer detaillierten Ansicht das BehƤltnis 4, das mit dem Deckel 7 verschlossen ist. Der Deckel 7 ist in der gezeigten Situation verschlossen, das bedeutet, dass er auf dem oberen Rand 9 (Fig. 4, 5) des BehƤltnisses 4 aufliegt. Der Deckel 7 ist mit einer Platte 13 versehen, die relativ zum Deckel 7 verschiebbar mittels an der Platte 13 seitlich angebrachten Zapfen oder VorsprĆ¼ngen 15 in Kulissenbahnen 14 der Adapterleisten 20 gefĆ¼hrt ist. Mittels der Handhabe 22 kann die Platte 13 parallel zum Deckel 7 verschoben werden. In der gezeigten, geschlossenen Situation ist ferner zu erkennen, dass nur die Ɩffnungen 10a der Platte 13 zu sehen sind, jedoch befindet sich unterhalb der Ɩffnungen 10a die DeckelflƤche 7a, sodass die Ɩffnungen 10a bzw. 10 verschlossen sind. Fig. 2 shows in a detailed view of the container 4, which is closed with the lid 7. The lid 7 is closed in the situation shown, which means that it is on the upper edge 9 (FIG. Fig. 4, 5 ) of the container 4 rests. The lid 7 is provided with a plate 13 which is displaceable relative to the lid 7 by means of pins 13 laterally mounted on the plate or projections 15 guided in link tracks 14 of the adapter strips 20. By means of the handle 22, the plate 13 can be moved parallel to the cover 7. In the closed situation shown, it can further be seen that only the openings 10a of the plate 13 can be seen, but below the openings 10a the lid surface 7a is located so that the openings 10a and 10 are closed.

Fig. 3 zeigt den geschlossenen BehƤlter 4 im KĆ¼hlraum 2 bzw. in der KĆ¼hlzone 2b, die hier nur skizzenhaft dargestellt ist. Zu erkennen ist, dass die Luft L den BehƤlter 4 umstrƶmt und es zu keinem Luftaustausch zwischen dem Inneren des BehƤlters 4 und dem KĆ¼hlraum 2 bzw. der KĆ¼hlzone 2b kommt. Im Inneren des BehƤltnisses 4 stellt sich somit eine hohe Luftfeuchtigkeit ein, wenn dort feuchtes KĆ¼hlgut eingelegt wird. Fig. 9 zeigt ferner im Detail eine Adapterleiste 20 mit der Kulissenbahn 14 als perspektivische Schnittdarstellung mit angedeutetem, geschnittenem Deckel 7 und Zapfen 15. Hier ist zu erkennen, dass der Zapfen 15 sich in der unteren, vorderen Position die ansteigende Kulissenbahn 14 befindet. Der Deckel 7 liegt dabei auf dem Ɩffnungsrand 9 des BehƤltnisses 4 auf und verschlieƟt somit das BehƤltnis 4. Der Deckel 7 ist auf der vorderen Seite des KĆ¼hlschranks 1 mittels der Schwenkachse 21 gelagert. Die Adapterleiste 20 mit der Kulissenbahn 14 ist an der Innenseite der Seitenwand 17a bzw. entsprechend 17b angebracht Fig. 3 shows the closed container 4 in the cooling chamber 2 and in the cooling zone 2b, which is shown here only sketchy. It can be seen that the air L flows around the container 4 and there is no exchange of air between the interior of the container 4 and the cooling space 2 or the cooling zone 2b. In the interior of the container 4, thus, a high humidity occurs when there moist moist material is inserted. Fig. 9 also shows in detail an adapter bar 20 with the slide track 14 as a perspective sectional view with indicated, cut lid 7 and pin 15. Here it can be seen that the pin 15 is in the lower, forward position, the rising slide track 14. The lid 7 rests on the opening edge 9 of the container 4 and thus closes the container 4. The lid 7 is mounted on the front side of the refrigerator 1 by means of the pivot axis 21. The adapter strip 20 with the slide track 14 is attached to the inside of the side wall 17a and 17b, respectively

Fig. 4 zeigt in einer detaillierten Ansicht das BehƤltnis 4, auf dem der Deckel 7 zwar fronseitig anliegt, jedoch den BehƤlter 4 nicht vollstƤndig verschlieƟt. Der Deckel 7 ist in der gezeigten Situation also in der Offenposition, das bedeutet, dass er von dem oberen Rand 9 des BehƤltnisses 4 abgehoben gehalten ist und einen Spalt 11 freigibt. Ferner sind die Ɩffnungen 10 auf der Oberseite des Deckels 7 geƶffnet, da die Platte 13 eine entsprechende Anordnung von Lƶchern 10a (Fig. 6) aufweist, die in der geƶffneten Position mit der Anordnung der Ɩffnungen 10 der Platte in Ɯbereinstimmung stehen. Dadurch, dass die Platte 13 in der Offenposition verschoben ist, befindet sich der am Deckel angebrachte Zapfen 15 in einem ansteigenden Bereich der Kulissenbahn 14, wodurch im Zusammenwirken mit dem Deckel 7 das Anheben vom Ɩffnungsrand 9 bewirkt wird. In Fig. 7 ist die Adapterleiste in einem lƤngsseitigem Vertikalschnitt dargestellt, sodass die ansteigende Kulissenbahn 14 und der darin gefĆ¼hrte Zapfen oder Vorsprung 15 zu erkennen sind. Wie bereits oben erwƤhnt, ist der Zapfen 15 mit der verschiebbaren Platte 13 fest verbunden, sodass eine Verschiebung der Platte13 horizontal nach hinten ein Anheben der Platte aufgrund der ansteigenden Kulissenbahn 14 bewirkt wird. Die Platte 13 ist mittels einer Nut - Federverbindung 18, 19 an dem Deckel 7 gefĆ¼hrt (Fig. 6) sodass die Hubbewegung der Platte 13 den Deckel 7 entsprechend mit anhebt. Zu erkennen ist in Fig. 7 ferner, dass in der Offenposition zusƤtzlich zum Anheben des Deckels 7 auch das Lochbild der Ɩffnungen 10a in der Platte 13 (Fig. 6) mit dem Lochbild der der Ɩffnungen 10 im Deckel in Ɯbereinstimmung gebracht werden, sodass alle Ɩffnungen 10, 10a in dieser Position zumindest nahezu oder nahezu vollstƤndig geƶffnet sind. Mittels der Handhabe 22 wird die Platte 13 bewegt, wobei die Handhabe mit einer Anordnung von Kulissenbahnen 25 und Federmittel 24 und weiteren Funktionsteilen in der Aufnahme 22a im Deckel gehalten ist. Fig. 8 zeigt ferner im Detail eine Adapterleiste 20 mit der Kulissenbahn 14 als perspektivische Schnittdarstellung mit angedeutetem, geschnittenem Deckel 7 und Zapfen 15. Hier ist zu erkennen, dass der Zapfen 15 durch die ansteigende Kulissenbahn sich in der oberen, hinteren Position befindet. Der Deckel 7 ist dabei vom Ɩffnungsrand 9 des BehƤltnisses 4 abgehoben bzw. beabstandet und gibt zumindest im hinteren Bereich den Spalt 11 frei. Der Deckel 7 ist auf der vorderen Seite des KĆ¼hlschranks 1 mittels der Schwenkachs 21 gelagert. In einer zweckmƤƟigen AusfĆ¼hrung sind die Adapterleisten 20 an den SeitenwƤnden lƶsbar befestigt, sodass die gesamte Deckelanordnung auf einfache Weise mit den Adapterleisten 20 aus dem KĆ¼hlraum oder Teilraum herausgenommen und wieder eingesetzt werden kann. Fig. 4 shows in a detailed view of the container 4, on which the cover 7 Although fronseitig rests, but not completely closes the container The lid 7 is in the situation shown so in the open position, that is, it from the upper edge 9 of the Container 4 is kept lifted and a gap 11 releases. Furthermore, the openings 10 are opened on the upper side of the cover 7, since the plate 13 has a corresponding arrangement of holes 10a (FIG. Fig. 6 ), which are in the open position with the arrangement of the openings 10 of the plate in accordance. Characterized in that the plate 13 is moved in the open position, the pin 15 mounted on the lid is in a rising region of the slide track 14, whereby in cooperation with the cover 7, the lifting of the opening edge 9 is effected. In Fig. 7 the adapter bar is shown in a longitudinal vertical section, so that the rising slide track 14 and the guided therein pin or projection 15 can be seen. As already mentioned above, the pin 15 is fixedly connected to the displaceable plate 13, so that a displacement of the plate 13 horizontally to the rear, a lifting of the plate due to the rising slide track 14 is effected. The plate 13 is guided by means of a groove - spring connection 18, 19 on the cover 7 ( Fig. 6 ) So that the lifting movement of the plate 13, the lid 7 with lifting accordingly. It can be seen in Fig. 7 Furthermore, that in the open position in addition to lifting the lid 7, the hole pattern of the openings 10a in the plate 13 (FIG. Fig. 6 ) are aligned with the hole pattern of the openings 10 in the lid, so that all the openings 10, 10a are at least almost or almost completely opened in this position. By means of the handle 22, the plate 13 is moved, wherein the handle is held with an array of slide tracks 25 and spring means 24 and other functional parts in the receptacle 22a in the lid. Fig. 8 also shows in detail an adapter bar 20 with the slide track 14 as a perspective sectional view with indicated, cut cover 7 and pin 15. Here it can be seen that the pin 15 is located by the rising slide track in the upper, rear position. The lid 7 is lifted from the opening edge 9 of the container 4 or spaced and are at least in the rear area, the gap 11 free. The lid 7 is mounted on the front side of the refrigerator 1 by means of the pivot axis 21. In an expedient embodiment, the adapter strips 20 are releasably secured to the side walls, so that the entire cover assembly can be easily removed with the adapter strips 20 from the refrigerator or compartment and used again.

Die Unterseite des Deckels 7 ist hierbei in einer AusfĆ¼hrung mit Gleitelementen 7b, vorzugsweise ein Teflon Ā® -Belag oder Streifen aus Silikonmaterial, versehen, die die Kontaktzone zum Ɩffnungsrand bereitstellen, wenn der Deckel 7 geschlossen ist. Damit kann das das BehƤltnis 4 auch bei geschlossenem Deckel 7 leichtgƤngig aus dem KĆ¼hlraum 2b, 2c herausgezogen oder eingeschoben werden. Ferner kann der Deckel im geschlossenen Zustand dicht oder zumindest nahezu dicht auf dem Ɩffnungsrand anliegen.The underside of the cover 7 is in this case provided in an embodiment with sliding elements 7b, preferably a TeflonĀ® coating or strips of silicone material, which provide the contact zone to the opening edge when the cover 7 is closed. Thus, the container 4 even with the lid closed 7 easily pulled out of the refrigerator 2b, 2c or inserted. Furthermore, the lid in the closed state can rest tightly or at least almost close to the opening edge.

Fig. 5 zeigt den BehƤlter 4 in der geƶffneten Situation im KĆ¼hlraum 2 bzw. in der KĆ¼hlzone 2b, die hier nur skizzenhaft dargestellt ist. Zu erkennen ist, dass die Luft L durch den Spalt 11 in den BehƤlter 4 einstrƶmt und es zu einem Luftaustausch zwischen dem Inneren des BehƤlters 4 und dem KĆ¼hlraum 2 bzw. der KĆ¼hlzone 2b kommt. Der Luftaustausch wird zusƤtzlich durch die offenen Ɩffnungen 10 unterstĆ¼tzt, sodass das Innere des BehƤltnisses 4 zumindest nahezu vollstƤndig durchstrƶmt wird und sich ein sehr guter Luftaustausch zwischen BehƤlterinnerem und dem KĆ¼hlraum 2 bzw. KĆ¼hlzone 2b einstellt. Im Inneren des BehƤltnisses 4 stellt sich somit eine niedrigere Luftfeuchtigkeit ein, sodass dort feuchtes KĆ¼hlgut trocknen kann bzw. verpacktes KĆ¼hlgut aufgrund der durchstrƶmenden KĆ¼hlluft L gleichmƤƟig gekĆ¼hlt wird. Fig. 5 shows the container 4 in the open situation in the refrigerator 2 and in the cooling zone 2b, which is shown here only sketchy. It can be seen that the air L through the gap 11 flows into the container 4 and there is an exchange of air between the interior of the container 4 and the cooling chamber 2 and the cooling zone 2b. The air exchange is additionally supported by the open openings 10, so that the interior of the container 4 is at least almost completely flowed through and sets a very good exchange of air between the container interior and the cooling chamber 2 or cooling zone 2b. In the interior of the container 4, thus, a lower humidity is set, so that there moist wet goods can dry or packaged refrigerated goods due to the flowing cooling air L is cooled evenly.

Fig. 10 bis 12 zeigen im Detail die Funktion der Bedienhandhabe 22 zur Bereitstellung einer sogenannten Push-Pull-Funktion zur Verschiebung der Platte 13. Fig. 10 zeig dabei die Handhabe 22, wie sie der Offenposition des Deckels 7 entspricht. Die Handhabe 22 umfasst in der gezeigten AusfĆ¼hrung ein feststehendes Basisteil 22b, das mit einem dazu verschiebbaren Taster 22a zusammenwirkt. Der Taster 22a ist mit der Platte 13 mittels Kopplungsmittel 22c gekoppelt (Fig. 6). Zu erkennen ist ferner, dass das Basisteil 22b eine Kulissenbahn 23 und eine als Langloch ausgebildete FĆ¼hrungsbahn 26b aufweist. Mittels Druckfedern 24 ist der Taster 22a an der RĆ¼ckseite des Basisteils 22b abgestĆ¼tzt, sodass der Taster 22a bevorzugt aus dem Basisteil 22b herausgeschoben wird. Der Taster 22a umfasst zumindest einen FĆ¼hrungszapfen 26, um ihn stabil und zuverlƤssig innerhalb des Basisteils 22b zu fĆ¼hren. Ferner ist der Taster 22a mit einer Sperrklinke 25 versehen, die in der Kulissenbahn 23 gefĆ¼hrt ist und den Taster 22a an den in der Bahn 23 vorgesehenen Haltepositionen 23a, 23b, 23c feststellen kann. In der gezeigten Situation befindet sich die Sperrklinke 25 in der Halteposition 23a. 10 to 12 show in detail the function of the operating handle 22 for providing a so-called push-pull function for displacing the plate 13. Fig. 10 show the handle 22, as it corresponds to the open position of the lid 7. In the embodiment shown, the handle 22 comprises a fixed base part 22b, which cooperates with a pushbutton 22a displaceable thereto. The button 22a is coupled to the plate 13 by coupling means 22c ( Fig. 6 ). It can also be seen that the base part 22b has a slide track 23 and a guideway 26b designed as a slot. By means of compression springs 24, the button 22a is supported on the back of the base part 22b, so that the button 22a is preferably pushed out of the base part 22b. The button 22a includes at least one guide pin 26 for guiding it stably and reliably within the base part 22b. Further, the button 22a is provided with a pawl 25 which is guided in the slide track 23 and the button 22a to the provided in the web 23 holding positions 23a, 23b, 23c can determine. In the situation shown, the pawl 25 is in the holding position 23a.

Fig. 11 zeigt die Handhabe 22 fĆ¼r die sogenannte halboffene Position des Deckels 7. Zu erkennen ist, dass sich die Sperrklinke 25 in der mittleren Halteposition 23b befindet und somit die Taste 22a in der mittleren Position hƤlt. Die mit der Taste 22a gekoppelte Platte 13 (Fig. 6) befindet sich hierbei in einer derartigen Position, dass das Lochbild der Platte 13 relativ zum Lochbild des Deckels 7 nicht vollstƤndig Ć¼berdecken und die Ɩffnungen 10 teilweise verschlossen sind. Fig. 11 shows the handle 22 for the so-called half-open position of the lid 7. It can be seen that the pawl 25 is in the middle holding position 23b and thus holds the key 22a in the middle position. The plate 13a coupled to the key 22a Fig. 6 ) is in this case in such a position that the hole pattern of the plate 13 does not completely cover relative to the hole pattern of the lid 7 and the openings 10 are partially closed.

Fig. 12 zeigt die Handhabe 22 fĆ¼r die sogenannte offene Position des Deckels 7. Zu erkennen ist, dass sich die Sperrklinke 25 in der letzten Halteposition 23c befindet und somit die Taste 22a in der ƤuƟeren Position hƤlt. Die mit der Taste 22a gekoppelte Platte 13 (Fig. 6) befindet sich hierbei in einer derartigen Position, dass das Lochbild der Platte 13v relativ zum Lochbild des Deckels 7 vollstƤndig Ć¼berdecken und die Ɩffnungen 10 vollstƤndig geƶffnet sind. Damit die Sperrklinke 25 die Kulissenbahn abfahren kann, ist sie seitlich, bezogen auf die BetƤtigungsrichtung B, verschiebbar oder schwenkbar am Taster 22a gekoppelt. Aufgrund der RĆ¼ckstellkraft der Federmittel 24 kann die Taste 22a durch DrĆ¼cken von einer Halteposition in die nƤchstfolgende Halteposition bewegt werden. Die RĆ¼ckstellung des Tasters 22a bzw. das Einfahren in die jeweilige Halteposition stellt das Federmittel 24 bereit. Fig. 12 shows the handle 22 for the so-called open position of the lid 7. It can be seen that the pawl 25 is in the last stop position 23c and thus holds the button 22a in the outer position. The plate 13a coupled to the key 22a Fig. 6 ) is in this case in such a position that the hole pattern of the plate 13v completely cover relative to the hole pattern of the lid 7 and the openings 10 are fully opened. Thus, the pawl 25 can move off the link path, it is laterally, relative to the operating direction B, slidably or pivotally coupled to the button 22 a.
