Abstract:
A domestic refrigeration appliance includes a thermally insulated inner container bounding a coolable interior for food. A refrigeration device cools the interior, a door leaf opens and closes the interior, a thermally insulated wall portion has a first surface facing the interior, a second surface facing away from the interior and an opening. An interior lighting configuration at least partially illuminates the interior when the door leaf is open. The lighting configuration includes at least one lamp and a shell-like housing forming a backing part fastened on the second surface of the wall portion near a periphery of the opening and bounding a cavity which is open towards the opening. The wall portion partially overlaps the cavity forming a niche in which the at least one lamp is disposed, and the wall portion, near the niche, completely overlaps the at least one lamp.
Abstract:
A home appliance device, in particular a home appliance chiller device, with improved efficiency, includes a refrigerant cycle having a heat generating unit, a machine compartment having a first sub-compartment and a second sub-compartment separated from the first sub-compartment. The second sub-compartment is configured for at least partly receiving the heat generating unit. An airflow unit is configured for conveying air from the first sub-compartment to the second sub-compartment in such a way that, in operation, the second sub-compartment is kept at least substantially warmer than the first sub-compartment. A home appliance including the home appliance device is also provided.
Abstract:
A domestic appliance has a carcass, a door for closing an inner space, a differential pressure sensor having a sensor membrane for identifying a difference in pressure between an interior air pressure in the inner space and an exterior air pressure in an outer space, a door opening aid for assisting the door opening process, and a control unit for the door opening aid which is dependent on the detected difference in pressure. The control unit is configured to detect a pressure curve of the difference in pressure and to control the door opening aid depending on the pressure curve that has been detected.
Abstract:
A refrigeration appliance, in particular a domestic refrigeration appliance, includes a storage chamber delimited by an inner container and a pressure sensor disposed outside the storage chamber. The pressure sensor communicates with the storage chamber by way of a connection housing anchored in an opening of a wall surface of the inner container. An exposed surface of the connection housing facing the storage chamber is flush with the surrounding wall surface.
Abstract:
A domestic refrigeration appliance includes a heat-insulated inner container delimiting a coolable interior for foodstuffs, a refrigeration device cooling the interior, a door leaf articulated by hinges for opening and closing the interior and an opening aid. At least one hinge is self-closing for automatically closing the door leaf up to a first opening angle. The opening aid includes an actuator and a tappet moving back and forth by the actuator between first and second positions. The opening aid enables the door leaf to be closed if the tappet is in the first position, to move the tappet from the first to the second position to push open the closed door leaf using the tappet up to a second opening angle smaller than the first opening angle, and to automatically move the tappet into the first position immediately or with a time delay after reaching the second position.
Abstract:
A refrigeration appliance includes a door having a door rack or racks on the inside of a door leaf and a surface luminaire or lighting fixture disposed substantially perpendicular to the door leaf. The surface luminaire extends in the vertical direction beyond the door rack or racks and serves to illuminate an interior storage space. The surface luminaire is preferably an OLED.
Abstract:
A domestic appliance has an appliance body, a door supported in a rotatable manner on the appliance body, a door actuator for driving the door, an activatable appliance function component and an actuator controller for activating the door actuator. The actuator controller is configured to monitor an activity status of the appliance function component and the actuator controller is configured only to activate the door actuator when the activatable appliance function component is inactive in response to receipt of an activation signal to activate the door actuator.
Abstract:
A household refrigerator has a thermally insulated cabinet, a storage compartment intended to store food and/or beverages and contained within the cabinet, a refrigerant cycle intended for cooling the storage compartment, and a compressor compartment housing a compressor of the refrigerant cycle. The cabinet is mounted on top of the compressor compartment. The household refrigerator contains a door leaf pivotally hinged with respect to the cabinet for opening and closing the storage compartment or a bottom drawer located directly above the compressor compartment and intended for storing food and/or beverages. The bottom drawer is closed when pushed into the storage compartment and open when at least partly be pulled out of the storage compartment. The household refrigerator contains a device for opening the closed door leaf or for opening the closed bottom drawer, which is attached inside the compressor compartment.
