Abstract: An interior compartment or container for a domestic refrigeration appliance has a side wall on which an elongate bearing rib for a bearing panel is integrated. The bearing rib extends in the depthwise direction of the interior compartment and extends over at least half the depth of the side wall. The bearing rib has an upper bearing side, which merges with the side wall by way of a first rounding and merges with an underside of the bearing rib by way of a second rounding, which is located opposite the first as seen in the widthwise direction. The underside merges at its lower end with the side wall. In a cross section of the bearing rib taken in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, a vertical-dimension ratio, measured in the heightwise direction, between an underside vertical dimension and an upper-side vertical dimension is between 3.5 and 4.5.

Abstract: A suspension device enables a freely projecting suspension of a food-accommodating container. The suspension device has a central rail for the direct suspension of the food-accommodating container. The central rail is a profiled rail made of metal. There is also described an arrangement of a suspension device with a food-accommodating container suspended in a freely projecting manner on the profiled rail, and a household refrigerator component.

Abstract: A shelf for a household refrigeration appliance includes a shelf plate having a first plate element and a separate second plate element. The second plate element is disposed next to the first plate element in a use position in the widthwise direction of the shelf to form the shelf plate and the second plate element can be removed non-destructively to make the shelf plate smaller. A carrier frame only borders the edges of the shelf plate. The shelf has a center web oriented in the depthwise direction of the shelf. Both plate elements rest on the center web in their use position.

Abstract: A domestic refrigeration appliance includes a receiving space for food, a drawer in the form of a food container being movable in the receiving space and a compartment floor disposed in the receiving space and forming a cover for the drawer. An elastically deformable stop element which faces a front wall of the drawer is disposed on a front edge of the compartment floor. The compartment floor has a lowering segment on its foremost region which faces the front wall and a foremost rim on which the elastically deformable stop element is disposed. The foremost rim is lowered downward relative to a sheet region of the compartment floor.

Abstract: A food-receiving container for a household refrigeration appliance includes a shell for receiving food and a ventilation device for carrying out an air exchange between the surroundings and the interior of the food-receiving container. The shell has a front panel on which a handle is disposed. The handle is disposed in an upper region of the front panel, when viewed in the vertical direction of the food-receiving container. The ventilation device is disposed on the handle. A household refrigeration appliance having the food-receiving container is also provided.

Abstract: A shelf for a household refrigeration appliance has a shelf plate, which has a first plate element and a separate second plate element, which is arranged next to the first plate element in a use position in the widthwise direction of the shelf to form the a continuous shelf plate and which can be removed non-destructively to make the shelf plate smaller. The shelf further has a carrier frame, which only borders the edges of the shelf plate. The carrier frame is only configured around three sides of the shelf plate and has a rear frame element and two opposing side frame elements.

Abstract: A foodstuff storage unit for a household appliance embodied to store foodstuffs having a plate-like foodstuff storage base forming a horizontal storage level. The foodstuff storage unit has a bottle storage rail which is arranged on a front edge of the foodstuff storage base and is embodied to store a bottle. A pull-out device and a household appliance are embodied to carry such a foodstuff storage unit.
