Abstract

An assembly for a domestic refrigeration appliance includes a wire basket and at least one pull-out rail apparatus connected to the wire basket. The pull-out rail apparatus has a coupling unit which engages at least partially around at least one wire of the wire basket oriented in a first direction and engages at least partially around one wire of the wire basket oriented in a second direction that is different than the first direction. A domestic refrigeration appliance is also provided.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An assembly for a domestic refrigeration appliance, the assembly comprising:
a wire basket having first wires oriented in a first direction and second wires oriented in a second direction being different than the first direction, said first wires having a diameter; and
at least one pull-out rail apparatus connected to said wire basket, said at least one pull-out rail apparatus having a coupling unit engaging at least partially around one of said first wires oriented in said first direction and engaging partially around one of said second wires oriented in said second direction;
said coupling unit having a first channel in which said first wire runs and is embedded when said coupling unit is mounted on said wire basket, said first channel having a channel axis running along a first channel axis direction, said first channel having a first channel opening running in said first channel axis direction, said first channel opening being wider than said diameter of said first wire;
said coupling unit having at least two second channels oriented parallel to one another in each of which a respective second wire runs and is embedded when said coupling unit is mounted on said wire basket;
said first channel crossing said at least two second channels; and
said coupling unit having a counter-stop, a further first wire having one side being adjacent said counter-stop when said coupling unit is mounted on said wire basket, and said further first wire being distant from said first channel.

2. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said coupling unit is formed as a single piece.

3. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said coupling unit is formed as a separate adapter.

4. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein:
said second wire has a diameter;
said second channels each have a channel axis running along a second channel axis direction;
said second channels each have a second channel opening running in said second channel axis direction; and
said second channel openings are narrower at least in parts than said diameter of said second wire.

5. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein each second wire is latched into a respective one of said second channels.

6. The assembly according to claim 4 , which further comprises elastic wings delimiting said second channel openings.

7. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said first channel and said second channels cross at a channel crossing.

8. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said wires oriented in said first and second directions are disposed crosswise to one another and are connected to one another at crossing points.

9. A domestic refrigeration appliance, comprising:
a housing;
a receiving chamber disposed in said housing for receiving food; and
an assembly according to claim 1 being disposed in said receiving chamber, said assembly permitting said wire basket to be pulled out of and pushed back into said receiving chamber.

10. An assembly for a domestic refrigeration appliance, the assembly comprising:
a wire basket having first wires oriented in a first direction and second wires oriented in a second direction being different than said first direction; and
at least one pull-out rail apparatus connected to said wire basket, said at least one pull-out rail apparatus having a coupling unit engaging at least partially around one of said first wires oriented in said first direction and engaging at least partially around one of said second wires oriented in said second direction;
said coupling unit having at least one first channel in which said first wire runs and is embedded when said coupling unit is mounted on said wire basket;
said coupling unit having at least two second channels oriented parallel to one another in each of which a respective second wire runs and is embedded when said coupling unit is mounted on said wire basket;
said at least one first channel crossing said at least two second channels; and
said coupling unit having a counter-stop, a further first wire having one side being adjacent said counter-stop when said coupling unit is mounted on said wire basket, said further first wire having a side being opposite to said one side and being distant from said at least one first channel, said counter-stop being a plate-shaped strip covering a groove having a bottom opening for suspending and resting said coupling unit on said further first wire.
