Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a shelf for refrigerator, in particular for a household refrigerator.
  • refrigerators are provided with shelves for the support of food to be cooled.
  • shelves are insertable in an adjustable way in height into guides obtained in the internal side walls of the refrigerator and they can be formed by means of interlacement of metal rods or with glass plates or they can also be directly moulded in plastic.
  • scope of the present invention is to form a shelf for refrigerator that allows an easier handling of the containers or food inside the refrigerator.
  • a shelf for refrigerator for the support of containers or food characterised in that it comprises a revolving plate and a cutting board, said plate being revolvable in order to facilitate the handling of said containers or food supported by it, said cutting board being movable so as to leave an area for the passage of containers of various type.
  • a shelf 1 for refrigerator according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown.
  • the structure of the shelf 1 is realized with a first metal rod 2 that is moulded according to a rectangular shape 3 with angular projection 4 for the sliding fastening of the shelf 1 on guides realized in side walls inside a refrigerator, not visible in the figures.
  • the metal rod 2 is moulded in such a way so as to create inside the rectangular shape 3 a round housing 5 for a revolving plate 6 and a rectangular housing 7 for a panel 8.
  • a second metal rod 9 with minor thickness than the metal rod 1 is moulded around the round housing 5 so as to create a barrier 10 that gets in abutment with the internal back wall of the refrigerator on the back and a handle 11 for the handling of the shelf 1 by the user on the front.
  • barrier 10 allows any container or food that is placed on the revolving plate 6 not to go in abutment with the internal back wall of the refrigerator.
  • the plate 6 is anchored to the metal rod of the housing 5 by means of curved tangs 12 and it rests on rollers 13 for the sliding of the plate 6 either clockwise or counter-clockwise, as better visible in Figure 2.
  • the rollers 13 are fastened onto round supports 14 that are connected with curved pins 15 that are fixedly mounted to the metal rod of the round housing 5, as better visible in Figure 3.
  • the plate 6 can be made of various materials, glass fiber or metal and it can preferably be transparent or have serigraph motifs.
  • the rotary sliding of the plate 6 allows a user an easy handling of any container or food that is placed in the same plate 6 inside the refrigerator.
  • the panel 8 rests on the edge of the housing 7 and it is coupled to one side of housing 7, which also corresponds to a side 16 of the shelf 1, so as to be capable to rotate around the same side 16 but upward, as shown in Figure 2, so as to create a passage area in order to allow the positioning of several containers such as bottles with long neck, and so that it can be completely extracted from the housing 7, with function of cutting board.
  • the panel 7 must be made of materials that are suitable to the use as cutting board, such as plastic, wood or metal.
  • FIGS 4-6 a shelf 20 for refrigerator as a variation of the above described embodiment is shown.
  • the shelf 20 in this case is realised by moulding in a single piece of a material such as glass, plastic or metal.
  • the rectangular shape shelf 20 is provided with fins 21 of support for the fastening onto guides of the internal side walls of the refrigerator and with a round hollow housing 22 for a revolving plate 23 and with a rectangular hollow housing 24 for a panel 25.
  • the plate 23 is resting on rollers 26 that can slide in a round guide 27 obtained in the hollow housing 22 of the shelf 20, as visible in Figure 6; in that way the plate 23 can rotate clockwise and counter-clockwise thus allowing a user an easy handling of any container or food that is placed in the same plate 23 inside the refrigerator.
  • the plate 23 is thus easily removable for a use external to the refrigerator.
  • the panel 25 thus rests on the edge of the hollow housing 24 of the shelf 20 and it can be turned upside down, a visible in Figure 5, so as to create a passage area in order to allow the different positioning of containers such as bottles with long neck, or it can be removed; in this latter case it can be used as a cutting board and it is therefore made of materials suitable to such use such as metal, plastic, wood.
