  • Patent number: 11268749
    Abstract: A household refrigeration appliance has a housing and an inner compartment configured in the housing with a cover, which extends along a rear wall of the inner compartment and divides the inner compartment into a storage compartment for chilled goods and a cold air distribution region with a cold air distribution system arranged therein and with a first visible surface formed by the cover and facing an access opening of the inner compartment. The cold air distribution system has a vertical cold air duct segment extending in the direction of a top wall, which is arranged parallel to the rear wall in the longitudinal direction and has a horizontal cold air duct segment branching from the vertical cold air duct segment and extending in the direction of a left or right side wall, which is arranged parallel to the rear wall in the longitudinal direction.

  • Publication number: 20180120018
    Abstract: A refrigeration device has a refrigeration device container, a door for closing an opening of the refrigeration device container, and a coolant circuit arrangement. The coolant circuit arrangement includes a first heat exchanger, a second heat exchanger, and a heating section for heating the opening region of the refrigeration device container. The first heat exchanger and the second heat exchanger include a multi-port extruded fluid line and are designed to discharge heat from the coolant circuit arrangement. The multiport extruded fluid line is thermally coupled to the heating section, and the heating section is arranged between the first heat exchanger and the second heat exchanger and is configured to dispense heat from the coolant circuit arrangement to the opening region of the refrigeration device container.
