Abstract: A refrigerating device is provided that includes an evaporator and a compartment that is cooled by air circulating air from and to the evaporator, wherein a diffusion layer can be displaced between a first position, in which air passage openings distributed in a wall separating the compartment from a distribution chamber are covered by the diffusion layer, and a second position, in which the diffusion layer is positioned so as to allow air to flow from the evaporator through the distribution chamber into the compartment while bypassing the diffusion layer.

Abstract: A telescopic pull-out arrangement for a refrigerator is provided that includes two telescopic pull-out mechanisms each provided with a stationary rail on a common frame and a movable rail, and a storage part retained on the movable rails by a pair of identical adapters. The storage part has a first engagement contour cooperating with a first adapter of the couple and a second engagement contour cooperating with the second adapter of the couple. Each adapter is provided with a third and a fourth engagement contour. The first engagement contour of the storage part and the third engagement contour of the first adapter engage into one another with less tolerance transverse to the pull-out direction than the engagement of the second engagement contour of the storage part and the fourth engagement contour of the second adapter engage into one another.

Abstract: A refrigerating device is provided that includes a body, a door and a carrier for refrigerated products, the carrier being supported on adapters anchored on movable rails of telescopic extensions and displaceable between an inserted and a pulled-out position. The movable rails of the telescopic extensions are hidden under a tray and the tray of each telescopic extension is clamped between the movable rail thereof and the adapter anchored thereon.

Abstract: A refrigerator is provided that includes a carcass, a door, and a support for goods to be cooled. The support is mounted within the carcass via telescopic pull-out mechanisms for extending movement outwardly of the carcass and retracting movement inwardly relative to the carcass. A shell covers each telescopic pull-out mechanism on a top side, a longitudinal side facing the support, and a front side facing the door thereof.

Abstract: A refrigeration device is provided having a vertical rail that has through-openings arranged at a distance from each other and that is securely connected to a body of the refrigeration device. The refrigeration device includes a shelf support having a rear flank oriented towards the front side of the vertical rail and upper and lower hooks each having a downward oriented tip that protrudes over the rear flank and engages in one of the through-openings of the vertical rail. Only the tip of the upper hook touches the rear side of the rail and only the section of the rear flank that is arranged below the lower hook touches the front side of the rail.

Abstract: A household appliance includes a body having a front, an appliance port including a cooling air inlet port and/or a vapor exhaust port disposed on the body, and a door. A console-type user control and display unit is provided including a control and display element, a housing, and control electronics disposed in the housing. The control electronics provide signal communication with the control and display element and with power electronics of the household appliance. At least a first portion of the user control and display unit is disposed on the door so as to be cooled by a flow of ambient air and so as to shield, when the door is in a closed position, the appliance port from view in a direction perpendicular to the front of the body.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electrolysis cell for preparing liquid alkali metal from a liquid alkali metal-heavy metal alloy, which comprises a tube (1) which is arranged essentially horizontally and has a closure device (4) at each of the two ends of the tube (1), at least one solid electrolyte tube (12) arranged in the tube (1), which conducts alkali metal ions and is closed at one end and has an opening (11) at the other end, with the solid electrolyte tube (12) being arranged concentrically in the tube (1) and having the opening (11) facing one end of the tube (1) so that a first annular gap (13) for conducting the liquid alkali metal-heavy metal alloy which forms one anode is present between the inside of the tube (1) and the outside of the solid electrolyte tube (12), an interior space (14) in the solid electrolyte tube (12) for accommodating the liquid alkali metal which can be utilized as cathode, where the closure device (4) comprises an alkali metal-heavy metal alloy inlet (8) or outlet (9) op
