Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and a method of temperature equalization applied to the door (12, 24, 30) of electrical home appliances by means of the circulation of air within the freezing compartment (23), the freezer compartment (11) or the refrigeration compartment (16), as may be the case, in order to eliminate regions wherein the air stands still. The said circulation comprises the forced moving of the air between at least one air inlet opening (34) and at least one air outlet opening (15, 25, 35, 36), the said forced moving being provided by the action of at least one ventilation fan (13, 26, 37), installed in the air inlet opening or in the air outlet opening. The said openings are positioned in regions of different temperatures within the compartment, and are interconnected by means for conducting the airflow (14, 27, 34), which means may be provided by means of ducts.

Abstract: Leveling feet have embedded castors (3) that allow the leveling of a household appliance with a plastic thread. The castors are positioned relative to the floor to allow for movement of the household appliance upon the castors. The leveling feet have a base, that is preferably metallic, and that is connected to an internal ring (6), which contains threads on an external surface thereof. An external ring is coupled to the internal ring and has internal threads for mating with the external threads of the internal ring. The external ring moves vertically on the threads of the internal ring to change the height of the appliance.
Abstract: This invention relates to sliding shelves (2a, 2b, 4a, 4b) for refrigerators and freezers, which have a movement along side support guides (1) that enable the retracting, fitting and bounce of said shelves, allowing the choice of different configurations for the inner space of the household appliance, according to the area to be used to store food. This configuration enables different arrangement of shelves, including: extended shelves, retracted shelves, vertically bounced shelves, or even, in an associated form, an extended shelf and another bounced one.

Abstract: Touch-sensitive or User's finger movement-sensitive panel (1), applied to household appliances such as fridges, washing machines, microwave ovens and stoves, supplied with a touch sensor, capacitive or similar, allowing to control the equipment through the selection of specific functions and characteristics, without the need of gears with mobile pieces to detect the touch or its derivatives for such purpose. The said panel (1) is supplied with a capacitance measurement electronic circuit coupled with a sensitive element (4) conductor of electricity which allows the connection to the panel (1), which is supplied with a conductive element applied on its inner surface. This conductive element (6) allows the extension of the motion perception area next to the external surface or the touch on it.
