Refrigeration device comprising a door-opening aid

摘要

A refrigeration device is provided that includes two housing parts in the form of a body and a door that together delimit an interior. A seal is fastened to one of the housing parts and sealingly contacts the other housing part when the door is closed and a drive element is arranged to drive the door from the closed position into an open position. A sensor detects a movement of the door and a control circuit coupled to the sensor activates the drive element when a movement of the door is detected.

主权项

1. A refrigeration device comprising:
a carcass; a door, the carcass and the door together delimiting an interior; a seal, the seal being attached to one of the carcass and the door, and the seal, in a closed position of the door, engaging the other of the carcass and the door to provide a sealing function between the carcass and the door; a drive element operable to drive the door out of the closed position into an opened position; a pressure sensor configured to sense a movement of the door by sensing a change in pressure in the interior while the seal is sealed with the other of the carcass and the door; and a control circuit, operatively coupled to the pressure sensor to activate the drive element, while the seal is sealed with the other of the carcass and the door, in response to a sensed movement of the door.
