Description

REFRIGERATION APPLIANCE WITH AN EXTRACTABLE STORAGE CONTAINER
The present invention relates to a household appliance and more particularly a refrigeration appliance having a storage container in the form of a foldable mat as an extractable unit stored relative to the inner compartment door of the refrigeration appliance.
A refrigeration appliance has a plurality of shelves and containers for preserving food items. A withdrawable container may typically be arranged in the manner that its base extends in parallel with the base of the appliance so as to be movable out of the internal space of the appliance in order for allowing users to reach stored food items therein.
Other than conventional extractable storage containers generally serving to the purpose of storing fruits and vegetables, another special extractable container can be a container generally designated as a practical food storage container particularly advantageous for its convenience to allow children to easily reach food items. Therefore, a more efficient and practical storage of certain food items for children is desirable so as to provide a storage container effecting hygienically preservation of food items while at the same time making use of the normally non-used inner side region of the the inner compartment door of the refrigeration appliance. Therefore, a storage container releasably attachable to the inner compartment wall of the refrigeration appliance provides a practical solution for parents allowing their children to easily reach to the stored food items.
A prior art publication in the technical field of the present invention may be referred to as CN104374151 among others, the document disclosing a suspension type refrigerator magnetic attraction storage rack and a refrigerator, and belongs to the field of refrigerator manufacturing. The suspension type refrigerator magnetic attraction storage rack comprises a plastic slot; a plurality of evenly-arranged magnet slots are formed in the plastic slot and strong magnets are arranged in the magnet slots. The magnetic slots coat the peripheries of the strong magnets, and the middles of the strong magnets protrude out of the magnetic slots. The strong magnets are square-shaped and0 beverages, beer, cans and other objects with iron covers can be attracted through the strong magnets and such containers are suspended and hung in the refrigerator.
The present invention provides a refrigeration appliance having at least one extractable container releasably attachable to a compartment door or shelf wall portion of the refrigeration appliance as defined by the characterizing features as defined in Claim 1.
Primary object of the present invention is hence to provide a refrigeration appliance with an extractable storage container releasably attachable to the inner compartment door’s wall and practically reachable by children.
The present invention proposes a refrigeration appliance with at least one releasably attachable storage container as a foldable structure attachable when folded. It is mounted to a non-used portion of a shelf wall parallel to the surface of the base portion thereof while two cover elements close two opposite openings of the folded structure creating a closed storage volume.
A first and second enclosure strips are releasably attachable to each other opening and closing the storage container when the latter is folded. The storage container is attached to the shelf wall through one of the two enclosure strips, either magnetically or through mechanical means such as hooking and hanging elements or hook and loop fastening elements.

The present invention relates to a household appliance and more particularly a refrigeration appliance (1) having an interior refrigeration cabin, an inner compartment door (2) opening and closing a front side of the refrigeration cabin and at least one side shelf (3) on the inner compartment door (2) for storing food items in a refrigerated manner.
The refrigeration appliance (1) may typically have a main body with a multitude of storage chambers and the inner compartment door (2) opening and closing the front side of the main body. A refrigerating compartment as well as a freezing compartment may be disposed so as to provide separate divisions within the inside of the main body. The inner compartment door (2) typically comprises a plurality of shelves (3). The inner compartment door (2) of the invention further comprises at least one releasably attachable storage container (6) generally designated as a practically removable storage means for food items such as sandwiches and/or fruits. Therefore, the storage container (6) of the invention can be taken out from the inner compartment and as such continues to fulfil food preservation function until it is opened outside the refrigeration appliance (1). The storage container (6) is particularly useful in that it allows easy removal by children and it can also serve as a daily routine storage container for children, for example in a bag, and also serves to the purpose of creating a practical service mat when needed, which can prove to be advantageous for parents and children, thereby providing a quickly available service mat especially for little children.
As mentioned above, the storage container (6) is a foldable mat having an elastomeric structure thereby enabling practical folding and unfolding operations by way of holding the two opposite longitudinal edges and attaching them to each other. In other words, the storage container (6) serves as a food preservation box with a foldable structure while the food is stored therein.
The storage container (6) comprises a first and second surface (9, 10) as planar surfaces in the opened state and a pair of cover elements (8) to be attached to two opposite openings of the folded, generally cylindrical container providing isolation for the food articles stored inside. A first and second enclosure strips (11, 12) interacting with each other for effectuating opening and closing of the storage container (6) are provided.
The refrigeration appliance (1) may conventionally have a certain number of storage containers (6), each one connected to the inner compartment door (2) through an attachment element (7). The attachment element (7) can be joined to a lateral wall (4) portion parallel to the surface of the inner compartment door (2) or to a shelf wall (5) parallel to the surface of the base portion thereof. In both cases, the storage container (6) will occupy a normally non-used space region within the refrigeration compartment. On the other hand, use of the base surface of a shelf (3) is more advantageous as it involves use of a space region extending in parallel with the inner compartment door (2), therefore not extending into the inner compartment.
The attachment element (7) effects carrying of the storage container (6) by any suitable means for instance through mutually cooperating releasable mechanical connection elements such as hooking and hanging elements or alternatively by means of mechanical fastening elements in the form of hook and loop fastening elements generally used in diapers and sold under the registered trademark Velcro (not shown). The releasable connection of the storage container (6) with the attachment element (7) is however preferably effectuated magnetically as delineated below.
The first surface (9) of the storage container (6) comprises a first and second enclosure strips (11, 12) disposed along opposite edges in the opened state and the two are attached to each other when the storage container (6) is folded. The releasable attachment of the first and second enclosure strips (11, 12) is preferably effectuated magnetically in the manner that one of the first or second enclosure strips (11, 12) being made of a material producing a magnetic field (typically a magnetized ferromagnetic material) while the other one of the first and second enclosure strips (11, 12) is a magnetically responsive material such as a metal strip.
The attachment element (7) can alternatively be provided as an integrated part of the lateral wall (4) of the inner compartment door (2). The storage container (6) is preferably made from an elastomeric material such as silicon.
Semipermeable membranes (13) are mounted to respective film receiving areas (14) of each cover element (8) to impart long lasting freshness to stored food articles due to the decelerating airflow through the aeration openings (15) of the cover elements (8) thanks to the semipermeable membranes (13). Therefore, the semipermeable membranes (13) help preserving humidity within the storage container (6).
In summary, the present invention proposes a refrigeration appliance (1) having an interior refrigeration cabin for storing food items in a refrigerated manner, the interior refrigeration cabin being enclosed by a heat-insulating housing, the refrigeration appliance (1) further having an inner compartment door (2) opening and closing a front side of the refrigeration cabin and having at least one side shelf (3) on the inner compartment door (2) for storing food articles.
