Abstract
A door tray for a refrigeration device includes a decorative strip having a profile that is u-shaped in cross section. An open-topped container has an edge onto which the decorative strip is fitted with the u-shaped profile thereof. Provided at least partially on an inner surface is a material having relatively high static friction. The material is in contact with the container and fixes the decorative strip to the container merely due to the static friction of said material.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 - 12 . (canceled)
13 . A door tray for a refrigeration device, comprising:
a decorative strip having a profile that is u-shaped in cross section; a container having an open top, said container having an edge onto which the decorative strip is fitted with the u-shaped profile thereof; and a material provided at least partially on an inner surface of the decorative strip and having relatively high static friction, said material contacting the container and fixing the decorative strip to the container merely due to the static friction of the material.
14 . The door tray of claim 13 , wherein the container has a wall, said inner surface being spaced from another inner surface of the decorative strip at a distance which essentially corresponds to a wall thickness of the wall in a region of the edge.
15 . The door tray of claim 13 , wherein the decorative strip is manufactured from a material which differs from the material with relatively high static friction.
16 . The door tray of claim 13 , wherein at least one member selected from the group consisting of the decorative strip and the container is manufactured from plastic.
17 . The door tray of claim 13 , wherein the material with relatively high static friction is a rubber-type or a rubber-like material.
18 . The door tray of claim 13 , wherein the material with relatively high static friction is TPE.
19 . The door tray of claim 13 , wherein the material with relatively high static friction is adhered to the inner surface or is fastened to the inner surface by extrusion.
20 . The door tray of claim 13 , wherein the material with relatively high static friction essentially extends over a depth of the inner surface of the u-shaped profile of the decorative strip in the cross-section.
21 . The door tray of claim 13 , wherein the inner surface of the decorative strip is provided with a depression which is filled with the material with relatively high static friction.
22 . The door tray of claim 21 , wherein the depression is a groove.
23 . The door tray of claim 13 , wherein the decorative strip has another inner surface provided at least partially with the material with relatively high static friction.
24 . The door tray of claim 23 , wherein those regions of the inner surfaces, which are provided with the material with relatively high static friction, lie opposite one another.
25 . The door tray of claim 13 , wherein the material with relatively high static friction has a surface in contact with the container, said surface being structured.
26 . The door tray of claim 25 , wherein the surface is structured by fins or ribs.
27 . The door tray of claim 26 , wherein the fins or ribs extend vertically.
28 . A domestic refrigeration device, comprising:
a carcass which delimits a refrigeration chamber; a door attached to the carcass for sealing the refrigeration chamber; and at least one door tray arranged on an internal side of the door, said door tray comprising. a decorative strip having a profile that is u-shaped in cross section, a container having an open top, said container having an edge onto which the decorative strip is fitted with the u-shaped profile thereof, and a material provided at least partially on an inner surface of the decorative strip and having relatively high static friction, said material contacting the container and fixing the decorative strip to the container merely due to the static friction of the material.
29 . The domestic refrigeration device of claim 28 , wherein the container has a wall, said inner surface being spaced from another inner surface of the decorative strip at a distance which essentially corresponds to a wall thickness of the wall in a region of the edge.
30 . The domestic refrigeration device of claim 28 , wherein the decorative strip is manufactured from a material which differs from the material with relatively high static friction.
31 . The domestic refrigeration device of claim 28 , wherein at least one member selected from the group consisting of the decorative strip and the container is manufactured from plastic.
32 . The domestic refrigeration device of claim 28 , wherein the material with relatively high static friction is a rubber-type or a rubber-like material.
33 . The domestic refrigeration device of claim 28 , wherein the material with relatively high static friction is TPE.
34 . The domestic refrigeration device of claim 28 , wherein the material with relatively high static friction is adhered to the inner surface or is fastened to the inner surface by extrusion.
35 . The domestic refrigeration device of claim 28 , wherein the material with relatively high static friction essentially extends over a depth of the inner surface of the u-shaped profile of the decorative strip in the cross-section.
36 . The domestic refrigeration device of claim 28 , wherein the inner surface of the decorative strip is provided with a depression which is filled with the material with relatively high static friction.
37 . The domestic refrigeration device of claim 36 , wherein the depression is a groove.
38 . The domestic refrigeration device of claim 28 , wherein the decorative strip has another inner surface provided at least partially with the material with relatively high static friction.
39 . The domestic refrigeration device of claim 38 , wherein those regions of the inner surfaces, which are provided with the material with relatively high static friction, lie opposite one another.
40 . The domestic refrigeration device of claim 28 , wherein the material with relatively high static friction has a surface in contact with the container, said surface being structured.
41 . The domestic refrigeration device of claim 40 , wherein the surface is structured by fins or ribs.
42 . The domestic refrigeration device of claim 41 , wherein the fins or ribs extend vertically.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
