Definitions

• the invention relates to a cooling device with a cooling space arranged inside its heat-insulating housing and closable by a door, which is equipped with storage levels arranged one above the other and held at least on the side walls of the cooling space.
• DE-OS 30 39 636 proposes a bottle holder which can be attached to the wire rods of support grids designed as storage levels and which can be attached to the wire rods of the support grids used in the refrigerators if there is an additional storage requirement for bottle-like items to be refrigerated.
• DE-OS 26 35 364 according to which one of the support grids is to be brought into the holding position provided for this purpose even during the storage of a beverage bottle and the storage surface of this support grid is therefore only conditionally required
• the solution according to DE-OS 30 39 636 allows the full use of the storage surfaces of the support grid even in spite of the storage of beverage bottles.
• a bottle carrier that can be attached to the support grid is required. which, on the one hand, can only be attached to the supporting grid in limited numbers and which significantly reduce the storage space below a supporting grid.
• these bottle holders in the event that they are not used for storing beverage bottles, a storage location outside the cold room, provided with a corresponding storage volume, is necessary if one wishes to make full use of its storage capacity in this case.
• the invention has for its object to improve a cooling device according to the preamble of claim 1 with simple design measures such that the disadvantages of the prior art are avoided.
• the storage surface has a section which is designed in the manner of a wave profile, the interconnected wave trains of which run transversely to the direction in which the shelf is introduced into the cooling space.
• the inventive design of the storage level creates the possibility without using additional auxiliary devices to be able to use the storage area of such a storage level both for storing bottle-like stored goods and conventional refrigerated goods, without the storage of the bottle-like stored goods specially designed for storing conventional refrigerated goods only have to use storage shelves that are inadequate.
• the section provided with the corrugated profile is particularly advantageously arranged for the storage of bottle-like refrigerated goods if, according to an advantageous embodiment of the object of the invention, it is provided that the section provided with a corrugated profile is arranged in the area of the storage plane which is remote from the door.
• the section provided with the wave profile is particularly easy to clean if, according to a next preferred embodiment of the object of the invention it is provided that the section provided with the wave profile can be removed from the holders on the side walls.
• the section provided with the corrugated profile is designed as a reversible section which can be used on both sides, which is at least largely flat on its underside opposite the corrugated profile and with the remaining storage area of the storage level an essentially continuously flat storage area able to form.
• a storage level assembled from two sections is particularly easy to manufacture if, according to a next advantageous embodiment of the object of the invention, it is provided that the section provided with the wave profile is designed like a wave profile over the width of the storage level. At the same time, such an embodiment creates sufficient storage space for bottle-like refrigerated goods.
• the section forming the storage surface of the storage level together with the wave profile section is removable from the holders on the side walls.
• a user of the cooling device is in a position to be able to arrange the two sections forming the storage surface of the storage level when using the wave-profile-like section within the cooling room in such a way that it appears ergonomically most favorable.
• the two sections of the storage level can be designed to be particularly load-bearing if, according to a next preferred embodiment of the object of the invention, it is provided that the wave-profile-like section and the section forming the storage level together with this are of closed surface design.
• the wave-profile-like section consists of plastic injection molding and that the section forming the storage plane is formed as a glass plate overmolded with a plastic frame.
• This provides a most cost-effective yet decorative high-quality shelf level that is particularly easy to clean from a hygienic point of view.
• 1 is a household table refrigerator with storage levels arranged one above the other at intervals in its cooling space, one of which has a double-sided section whose wavy profile-shaped storage area is used to store bottle-like storage goods, in a spatial view from the front,
• Fig. 2 in an enlarged section of the household table refrigerator in
• FIG. 3 in an enlarged section of the household table refrigerator in
• a cooling device 10 designed as a table refrigerator is shown, the heat-insulating housing 12 of which together with the one in a closed state bringable door 11 encloses a refrigerator 13.
• This is lined with an inner cladding 14 produced by chipless shaping of a plastic board, which together with an outer cladding (not specified in any more detail) and a heat insulation layer arranged in between forms the heat-insulating structure of the housing 12 and which are arranged on their side walls 15 at approximately the same intervals one above the other as holders serving support strips 16 is provided.
• the support strips 16 serve to support the lateral edges of storage levels 17 and 18.
• the storage levels designated as 17 are designed as a one-piece flat storage surface made of glass with a plastic frame enclosing their edges, while the storage level 18 is transverse to the direction of insertion has subdivided into the cooling space, the storage surface section 19 facing the door 11 is designed as a glass shelf, the edges of which are framed by a plastic frame and the storage surface is flat on both sides.
• the storage area section 19 is adjoined by a storage area section 20 in the area remote from the door of the storage level 18, which forms the storage level 18 together with the storage area section 19 and which is separated from the storage area section 19, so that both storage area sections 19 and 20 are designed as partial storage levels. which are supported with their lateral edges on the support strips 16.
• the shelf section 20 in a first installation position shown in FIG. 2 has a surface in the manner of a wave profile 21, the wave crests 22 and troughs 23 of which are arranged in the insertion direction of the shelf level 18 in the cooling space 13, so that the through Wave valleys 23 and wave crests 22 formed wave train runs transversely to the direction of insertion of the refrigerated goods tray 18 into the cooling space 13.
• the wave troughs 23, which are separated from one another by the wave crests 22, are provided on their rear side with a stop wall 24 spaced apart from the rear wall of the cooling space 13 and serve as a support surface for bottle-like refrigerated goods 25, which, when they are stored in the correct position, strike the stop wall 24 with their bottle bottom.
• the storage area section is equipped on its underside opposite the wave profile 21 with a flat storage area 26 which essentially has the width of the storage area of the storage area section 19 and which by turning the storage area section 20 into the installation position shown in FIG. 3 is feasible.
• the Abiage Structure 26 is provided on its distant side with a stop board 27 spaced from the rear wall of the cooling space 13, which serves to prevent the refrigerated goods (not shown) arranged on the storage surface 26 from touching the rear wall of the cooling chamber 13 cooled by a cold wall evaporator.
• the storage surface section 20 which in the present case is formed as a closed surface and is produced using the plastic injection molding process, together with the storage surface section 19 which can also be removed from the support strips 16, in the pushed-together state, on which their adjacent sides abut one another, forms a substantially continuous storage surface which, like the storage surface the storage levels 17 is suitable for storing conventional refrigerated goods.
