Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a refrigeration appliance comprising a bottle support assembly to secure bottled and tinned beverages on a shelf unit and to prevent overturning of the same due to the fast opening and closing of the refrigerator door.
  • CN103017469 discloses a refrigerator bottle holder mounted on the inner side of a refrigerator door and used for containing articles.
  • the refrigerator bottle holder comprises a pair of lug assemblies, a shelf, a bottle railing and a bottle-partitioning railing; the lug assemblies are mounted on the refrigerator door; the shelf is mounted between the lug assemblies, and articles can be placed on the shelf; the bottle railing is arranged between the lug assemblies, and is located upon the shelf; and the bottle-partitioning railing is mounted on the bottle railing through a slider assembly and located upon the shelf to be slid along the length direction of the bottle railing, and is used for partitioning the articles placed on the shelf.
  • the bottle-partitioning railing of the refrigerator bottle holder is slid to partition the articles contained in the refrigerator bottle holder.
  • the present invention provides a refrigerator beverage container support assembly to ensure stability of the stored containers as provided by the characterizing features defined in Claim 1 and subsequent claims.
  • Primary object of the present invention is to provide a beverage container support assembly enabling locational configuration of the shelf unit depending on the specific storage needs.
  • the present invention proposes a refrigeration appliance in which a door shelf unit comprises at least one linear slideway into which a container support assembly’s railing unit is slidably mountable.
  • a retaining means of the railing unit engageably communicates with the slideway such that when the retaining means inserted into slideway assumes an orientation perpendicular to the slideway, a fixing rod of the railing unit takes an orientation parallel to the slideway.
  • the central contact surface of the fixing rod being larger than the opening of the slideway and the perpendicular positioning of the retaining means relative to the slideway prevents disengagement of the container support assembly.
  • the operational position of the container support assembly can alternatively be locked by means of an intermediate portion extending between the retaining means and the fixing rod.
  • the intermediate portion s transversal dimension in a first direction and in a second 90 degrees rotated direction is different such that it is fixable in the slideway upon rotating and released to be slidable upon another rotation of 90 degrees. While a lockable structure is advantageous in terms of mechanical stability, the intermediate portion’s transversal dimension being shorter than the transversal dimension of the slideway, therefore involving no lockability, provides a more quick and practical arrangement of the shelf unit so as to enable displacement of the container support assembly while it carries a container.
  • two slideways extending in parallel one above another are provided to allow vertical alignment of two container support assemblies, each being slidable in respective slideways, enabling placement of separate containers to be stored one on top of another, both containers retained within a respective support portion of the container support assemblies.
  • Fig. 1a demonstrates a rear view of a shelf unit and Fig. 1b demonstrates a general front perspective view of the shelf unit according to the present invention.
  • Fig. 2a demonstrates a top view of a railing unit.
  • Fig. 2b demonstrates a general front perspective view of the railing unit and
  • Fig. 2c demonstrates a lateral cross-sectional view of the same according to the present invention.
  • Fig. 3 demonstrates a top view of a support portion according to the present invention.
  • Fig. 4 demonstrates perspective front and rear views of the shelf unit with beverage container support assemblies in installed manner and in different positions and slideways according to the present invention.
  • the present invention relates to a refrigeration appliance conventionally having a plurality of shelf units (1) serving for carrying and storing different food articles as well as beverage containers.
  • the present invention proposes a container support assembly (2) in the manner that a locational configuration of the container support assembly (2) depending on the specific storage needs of the end-user is obtainable as will be delineated hereinafter.
  • the present invention provides a container support assembly (2) mounted to a shelf unit (1), the shelf unit (1) comprising at least one linear horizontally extending slideway (3) so as to receive a railing unit (6) in connection with a removable support portion (10).
  • the railing unit (6) is structurally configured to comprise an inner part in the form of a retaining means (4) mechanically communicating with the slideway (3).
  • the retaining means (4) is an inner portion of a T-shaped part of the railing unit (6), engaged with the slideway (3) when the upper extension of the T-form (Retaining means, (4)) is inserted into the slideway (3) and rotated to extend perpendicular to the same.
  • a fixing rod (9) of the railing unit (6) assumes a horizontal position in parallel with the linear slideway (3).
  • a first and second clamping ring (7, 8) is provided at both ends of the fixing rod (9) so as to enable attachment of a support portion (10) to hold a container such as a canned beverage container.
  • the first and second clamping rings (7, 8) receive a pair of fixing portions (11) integral with the support portion (10).
  • the fixing portions (11) outwardly protrude at both sides of the support portion (10) in a unidirectional manner and are inserted into the clamping rings whereby the plane defined by the circular periphery of the support portion (10) is parallel to the direction formed by the two fixing portions’ (11) positions, the latter direction being also parallel to the fixing rod (9). Therefore, when mounting the railing unit (6) into the slideway (3) and rotating the same, one configures the plane of the support portion (10) to lie parallel to the base of the shelf unit (1).
  • the shelf unit (1) having a slideway (3) with which the railing unit (6) is in engagement in a movable manner allows repositioning of the container support assembly (2) as desired.
  • the railing unit (6) movable along the slideway (3) enables displacement of the container support assembly (2) irrespective of whether it carries a beverage container or not. Therefore, the user can move the container support assembly (2) along the slideway (3) to arrange the space of the shelf unit (1) to provide space for other stored food articles.
  • the horizontal position of the fixing rod (9) is not locked according to this embodiment of the invention. Therefore, it is possible to slide the container support assembly (2) even when a beverage container is carried by the support portion (10). This is advantageous in that a more quick and practical arrangement can be made.
  • the user can deactivate a given container support assembly (2) by pushing it to rotate the outer support portion (10) to rest it onto the wall of the shelf unit (1) as the first and second clamping rings (7, 8) act as hinging means to allow rotation of the support portion (10) along the axis of rotation of the two fixing portions (11). In this way, a non-used container support assembly (2) will be easily taken to a passive position occupying minimal shelf space.
  • the movement of the railing unit (6) is supported by an intermediate portion (12) between the retaining means (4) and the fixing rod (9) of the railing unit (6).
  • the dimensions of the intermediate portion (12) between the retaining means (4) can be determined such that the position of the support portion (10) is lockable when the fixing rod (9) is taken to a position parallel to the linear slideway (3).
  • the retaining means (4) establishes a connection strong enough to maintain the direction along which the longitudinal axis of the fixing rod (9) extends.
  • the largest transversal dimension of the intermediate portion (12) in a first direction is shorter that its largest transversal dimension in a second 90-degree rotated direction.
  • the larger largest transversal dimension provides that the container support assembly (2) is fixedly retained in the slideway (3) and the shorter largest transversal dimension allows displacement thereof as the transversal dimension of the opening of the slideway (3) is slightly larger than the shorter largest transversal dimension of the intermediate portion (12).
  • the container support assemblies (2) are guidably movable along the slideway (3) upon unlocking by 90-degree axial rotation of the intermediate portion (12).
  • a contact surface of the fixing rod (9) leans on the shelf unit (1) wall on both sides of the opening of the slideway (3), therefore providing a contact support between the fixing rod (9) and the rear wall of the shelf unit (1) in movable or non-movable positions of the container support assembly (2).
  • the support portion (10) with the circular structure ensures a stable positioning for the bottles and containers stored on the shelf unit (1).
  • Multiple support portions (10) may be placed in a single slideway (3) of a shelf unit (1) which increases the number of containers stored in a stable manner in a refrigerator.
  • the present invention also provides that two slideways (3) in parallel allow two separate containers to be stored one on top of another.
  • two container support assemblies (2) moving in different slideways (3) and place one soft drink can over another while both are retained within a respective support portion (10).
  • Beverage cans can be vertically stacked since upper and lower portions thereof fit to each other conveniently, 33 cl soft drink cans are particularly advantageously stored in a vertically stacked manner in accordance with the invention as the total height of two beverage cans will not require modification of the existing distance between two shelf units (1) of the refrigerator door.
  • Two beverage cans are accordingly storable one above another in a space saving manner while retained within different vertically aligned support portions (10).
  • the present invention proposes a refrigeration appliance having an interior refrigeration cabin enclosed by a heat-insulating housing and a refrigeration cabin door, the refrigeration cabin door comprising at least one door shelf unit (1) serving for carrying and storing food articles and beverage containers, the door shelf unit (1) further comprising at least one container support assembly (2).
  • the shelf unit (1) comprises at least one linear slideway (3) to which the at least one container support assembly (2) is guidably mounted such that a railing unit (6) of the container support assembly (2) engaged with the slideway (3), the container support assembly (2) further comprising a support portion (10) to carry a container.
  • the container support assembly (2) comprises a retaining means (4) engaging with the slideway (3), the retaining means (4) being formed as the upper extension of a T-shaped part of the railing unit (6).
  • the support portion (10) lies on a plane parallel to the base of the shelf unit (1) when the retaining means (4) is inserted into the slideway (3) and rotated 90 degrees to one side to extend perpendicular to the slideway (3).
  • the largest transversal dimension of an intermediate portion (12) extending between the retaining means (4) and a fixing rod (9) of the railing unit (6) is shorter than the transversal dimension of the opening of the slideway (3).
  • the largest transversal dimension of an intermediate portion (12) extending between the retaining means (4) and a fixing rod (9) of the railing unit (6) in a first direction is shorter that its largest transversal dimension in a second 90-degree rotated direction thereof.
  • the position of the support portion (10) is lockable when the fixing rod (9) is rotatably taken to a position parallel to the slideway (3).
