Abstract: A system includes a graft body and a filling structure. The graft body has a fenestration in a side surface through which a support structure is insertable. The filling structure has an internal volume that is tillable with a filling medium and is configured to have a conduit through the internal volume through which the support structure is insertable. The conduit in the filling structure is alignable with the fenestration in the graft body such that the support structure is insertable through both the conduit in the filling structure and the fenestration in the graft body.

Abstract: A refrigeration device including a heat-insulated housing, which contains a storage compartment, a water tank, a fan for propelling a stream of cold air that passes through an evaporator and a distribution unit for the controlled distribution of the stream of cold air along at least two circulation paths, the first of which is in closer thermal contact with the water tank than the second.

Abstract: A refrigeration device is provided that includes a housing enclosing an interior and an assembly in the interior having a storage compartment for chunks of ice and a stirrer. The stirrer is rotatable about an axis that extends through the storage compartment to move chunks of ice contained in the storage compartment in relation to each other and to move ice towards a dispensing passage that extends through the housing. A closable flap is interposed between the storage compartment and the dispensing passage.

Abstract: A dispensing device for free-flowing or pourable products, in particular in a refrigeration device. Said dispensing device has a feed pipe for a pourable product, comprising an exit opening and a shut-off flap that is situated at the exit opening, and an outlet for the free-flowing product, said outlet being attached to the flap and displaceable with the latter.

Abstract: A dispensing device for a free-flowing or pourable refrigerated product is situated on the front face of the housing of a refrigeration device. A sleeve, through which the dispensing device is accessed, protrudes beyond the front face and is surrounded by a peripheral frame that protrudes beyond the sleeve.

Abstract: A refrigeration device comprising a heat-insulated housing, which contains a storage compartment, a water tank, a fan for propelling a stream of cold air that passes through an evaporator and a distribution unit for the controlled distribution of the stream of cold air along at least two circulation paths, the first of which is in closer thermal contact with the water tank than the second.

Abstract: An ice maker for a domestic appliance comprises an ice tray, a water feed line which can be used to fill the ice tray with water, a water filter which is arranged in the water feed line such that it can be replaced, and a monitoring unit for calculating a value which is representative of the degree of wear of the filter. The monitoring unit has means for changing the representative value by a first fixed step width each time the ice tray is filled.

Abstract: A device for removing condensation from an ice duct of an ice dispenser for a refrigerator. The device may include a flap, which is arranged to seal an output opening of the ice dispenser and a controller for the flap, which is designed to move the flap between a closed position, in which the inner side of the flap contacts the edge of the outlet opening and a dispensing position in which the flap is withdrawn from the edge of the outlet opening to permit the dispensing of ice cubes. Further, the controller is designed to open the flap after expiry of a first time period, during which the flap is not moved by the action of a user or by the controller and to close the flap after expiry of a second time period.

Abstract: A cooling device is provided having three storage zones that are insulated from each other and cooled via evaporators through which a coolant flows. A first coolant circuit extends through a first and a second of the three storage zones and a second coolant circuit positioned parallel to the first coolant circuit extends through the first and the third of the storage zones.

Abstract: An ice dispenser including an ice supply container; a shaft extending into the supply container; a stirrer rotatable about the shaft which extends into the supply container, the stirrer being connectable to a rotation drive device that rotates the stirrer; an output chamber communicated with the supply container, the output chamber having an ice outlet opening; a slider rotatable in the output chamber, a rotation of the slider in a predetermined manner operating to bring the slider into moving engagement with ice located in the output chamber; and a coupling selectively disposable between an active coupling disposition in which the coupling operatively interconnects the stirrer and the slider to one another such that the slider rotates in correspondence with a rotation of the stirrer and a decoupling disposition in which the coupling does not operatively interconnect the stirrer and the slider to one another.

Abstract: A refrigerator is provided that includes a housing and a dispensing device for flowable and/or pourable chilled material, the dispensing device being located in a front recess of the housing. The front of the housing is covered at least in part by an adjustable decorative plate. The recess is accessible through a hole in the decorative plate while a case that is open towards the dispensing device and the hole of the decorative plate is adjustably mounted in the recess.

Abstract: A refrigerator comprising a water conduit that is equipped with a socket for an exchangeable water filter and a monitoring unit for detecting the water throughput through the water conduit, said unit generating an alarm if the water throughput exceeds a threshold value. The monitoring unit can be deactivated if a water filter is mounted in the socket.

Abstract: The invention relates to a support carrier for supporting a container to receive cooled goods from a cooled goods dispensing machines delivering cooled liquids and water ice cubes. Cooled goods dispensing machines are often integrated into refrigerators in such a way that a refrigerator door is provided with a recess into which a drink container is set. For the recess to be useable with containers of different sizes, and at the same time to ensure a secure support for the containers, a support carrier is provided having at least one joint and which can be, for example, folded out of the recess to permit a relatively larger container to be supported relative to the recess.

Abstract: A refrigeration device having a water tank with at least one wall surface and a bottom surface and a flat heating system that is arranged on the water tank, wherein the flat heating system extends at least partially over the bottom surface.

Abstract: An ice-crushing unit having a shaft, a plurality of axially-spaced stops disposed on the shaft, and a plurality of cutter sets provided on the shaft. A first cutter set may be rotationally fixed on the shaft and a second cutter set may be rotatable with the shaft or fixed to a housing. In an exemplary embodiment, the second cutter set is clamped in a longitudinal direction of the shaft by at least one spring acting in the longitudinal direction.
