DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
(16) In the drawings, the same or functionally identical elements are provided with the same reference characters.
(17)
(18) The domestic refrigeration appliance 1 has a housing 2 in which an inner container is provided which delimits with walls a first receptacle chamber for food, which is closable at the front side by at least one door, in the exemplary embodiment, two separate doors 3 and 4. The doors 3 and 4 are pivotably arranged on the housing 2 and can be pivoted outwardly independently of one another. The pivoting is herein enabled about a vertical axis and thus about an axis in the height direction (y-direction).
(19) The receptacle chamber closable by the preferably two doors 3 and 4 is, in the exemplary embodiment, a refrigerator compartment.
(20) Furthermore, the domestic refrigeration appliance 1 has a further inner container 5 which, with its walls, delimits a further second receptacle chamber 6 which is separate from the first receptacle chamber and here is a freezing compartment. In the exemplary embodiment, it is provided that in the second receptacle chamber 6, a first pull-out carriage 7 can be pushed in and pulled out in the depth direction and thus in the z-direction of the domestic refrigeration appliance 1. In particular, it is provided in the exemplary embodiment that the domestic refrigeration appliance 1 has a second pull-out carriage 8 which, in corresponding manner, can be pushed into the receptacle chamber 6 and pulled out therefrom.
(21) The following description will be made referring to the first pull-out carriage 7. The descriptions can advantageously also apply to the second pull-out carriage 8. The pull-out carriages 7 and 8 are pull-out devices of the domestic refrigeration appliance 1.
(22) The first pull-out carriage 7 contains a door 9 which represents a front wall and also a front closing part and thus also an outer part of the domestic refrigeration appliance 1. The first pull-out carriage 8 further has a food-receiving container which herein is a drawer 10 which is thus configured as a trough-like container and is arranged for loading with food or for removal of food from above. The pull-out carriage 7 preferably further has, on opposite sides, pull-out rails 11 which are each arranged with a fixed rail on an inner side of vertical side walls of the inner container 5 and also each have at least one running rail. The pull-out rails 11 are therefore, in particular, telescopic extenders. The pull-out rails 11 are arranged on opposite sides of the drawer 10. In particular, it is provided in the exemplary embodiment that the first pull-out carriage 7 has rail-like holders or holding elements 12 wherein in
(23)
(24) It is further apparent that in the exemplary embodiment it is provided that in the freezing compartment or the second receptacle chamber 6, an introduction of cooling energy takes place by a module 16 which has, in particular, an evaporator 17 and a blower 18 and which is preferably arranged in its own housing 19. By means of this unit which represents a cooling device, by an evaporator 17, cooling energy is generated which is then circulated as an air stream 20 in the receptacle chamber 6 by the blower 18.
(25)
(26)
(27) As shown, herein the drawer 10 has two mutually opposed vertical side walls 22 and 23. The side wall 22 contains an upper wall portion 24 and, seen in the height direction, a lower wall portion 25. The two wall portions 24 and 25 are configured, seen in the width direction of the domestic refrigeration appliance 1, offset from one another, wherein for this a discrete step 26 is provided at approximately half the height of the side wall 22. The upper wall portion 24 is thus, seen in the width direction, offset further outwardly than the lower wall portion 25. The opposite side wall 23 is configured accordingly.
(28) In the mounted state, the drawer 10 is seated, in an advantageous embodiment, on guide elements 27 and 28 of the holding elements 12, 15, wherein herein the placement of the drawer 10 on these guide elements 27 and 28 takes place precisely on these steps. The guide elements 27 and 28 are outwardly bent webs or wings. The guide elements 27 and 28 are oriented standing outwardly from upper edges 68 and 69 of respective panel-shaped basic parts 70 and 71 of the holding elements 12 and 15.
(29) It is also recognizable that webs and/or positioning skids 30 and 31 are integrally formed onto a floor or an underside 29 of the drawer 10 and extend downwardly from this underside 29.
(30) Furthermore, in
(31) The support rails 32 and 33 are components of a support tray or tray 34, shown in a perspective view in
(32) By the base panel 62 which has the support panel 35 and the support rails 32 and 33 and the holding elements 12 and 15, a receiving cage and/or the mounting cage 61 for the drawer 10 is formed. The mounting cage 61 is suspended on the pull-out rails 11 which are separate therefrom.
(33) As can be seen from
(34) Provided at a front end 41 of the slotted guide 37 is a pull-out stop element 42 which is, in particular, a stop web oriented in the width direction. In the exemplary embodiment, the pull-out stop element 42 delimits the slotted guide 37 forwardly and also opens integrally into the slotted guide wall 38.
(35) Accordingly, at the further support rail 33 on an upper side 43 facing the drawer 10, a corresponding embodiment with a slotted guide and a corresponding coupling pocket and a corresponding pull-out stop element is realized, as formed at the support rail 32 and has been described in relation thereto.
(36) It is thus preferably provided that a coupling pocket 40, a slotted guide 37 and a pull-out stop element 42 is provided, in particular integrated, in a support rail 32, 33.
(37) In
(38)
(39) It is evident that a stop 44 which extends downwardly at the underside 29 is formed integrally at the underside 29, in particular at a transition between the underside 29 and the side wall 22. The stop 44 is configured, in particular, as an elongate skid and preferably extends straight in the depth direction. It extends into the slotted guide 37 from above, as shown in
(40) Also shown in
(41)
(42) As shown by
(43) It is further apparent that a front end 52 of the stop 44 is offset rearwardly in relation to a front end 53 of the drawer 10 and thus, in particular, also to the underside 29.
(44) Furthermore, the stop 44 is configured, seen in the height direction, with a dimension such that an overlap with the height of the pull-out stop element 42 is achieved in the mounted position, in order in this regard also to achieve an effective pull-out stop.
(45)
(46) It is, in particular, very advantageous if the coupling element 50 and the coupling pocket 40 are configured such that an immersion of the coupling element 50 into the coupling pocket 40 is achieved over the entire movement path of the drawer 10 on the support rail 32 and the support rail 33. This means that over the entire play 54, the coupled state between the coupling element 50 and the coupling pocket 40 is maintained. This is particularly advantageous since thereby a simple removal of the drawer 10 from the support rails 32 and 33 as well as a simple mounting on the support rails 32 and 33 is enabled, although with this relative movement capability, an undesirable tilting of the drawer 10 about an axis oriented in the width direction is also prevented. It is then particularly advantageous if, as is made clear in
(47)
(48)
(49) As shown, according to the assembled representation of the mounting cage 61 in
(50) As shown, in particular, in
(51) With regard to the suspension of the holding elements 12 and 15 on the pull-out rails 11, in particular on their running rails, it can also be provided that corresponding engagement elements couple with receptacles so that an interlocking or meshing takes place in the height direction between a holding element 12, 15 and a pull-out rail 11, so that the movement coupling between these components takes place on pushing back and forth in the depth direction.
