Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

For the purpose of improving a protective effect of a home appliance device, in particular a home appliance chiller device, is proposed comprising: a telescopic guiding unit, which is convertible at least from a fully contracted state to a fully extracted state and vice versa, and has at least one stationary guiding element; and comprising a cover unit, which at least mostly covers the stationary guiding element at least in the fully extracted state.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A home appliance device, comprising: a telescopic guiding unit configured to be convertible at least from a fully contracted state to a fully extracted state and vice versa and having at least one stationary guiding element; and a cover unit, which at least mostly covers the stationary guiding element at least in the fully extracted state, the cover unit having a first cover element and a second cover element, which are movably coupled to each other by the guiding unit, the first cover element having a cross section which is at least substantially spiral-shaped. 2. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , the first cover element and the second cover element at least partly overlapping in the fully contracted state. 3. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , the first cover element and the second cover element at least partly overlapping in the fully extracted state. 4. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , the second cover element at least partly enclosing the first cover element from at least one side in the fully contracted state. 5. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , the second cover element at least partly engaging into the first cover element from at least one side in the fully contracted state. 6. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , the first cover element and the second cover element together at least mostly covering the guiding unit from at least one side in the fully extracted state. 7. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , the first cover element enclosing the guiding unit from at least three sides, viewed along an extraction direction of the guiding unit. 8. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , the second cover element enclosing the guiding unit from at least one side, viewed along an extraction direction of the guiding unit. 9. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , the guiding unit comprising at least one movable guiding element, which is movably coupled to the stationary guiding element, wherein the first cover element is coupled to the stationary guiding element and the second cover element is coupled to the movable guiding element. 10. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , the first cover element being configured for coupling with an inner liner and the second cover element being configured for coupling with an insert. 11. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , the first cover element having a first wall section, by means of which the first cover element is configured to be coupled to the inner liner, and having a second wall section, by means of which the first cover element is coupled to the guiding unit, wherein the first wall section and the second wall section are arranged opposite each other. 12. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , further comprising an insert, which is embodied as a bottle holder and is coupled to the guiding unit. 13. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , configured as a home appliance chiller device. 14. A home appliance, in particular a home chiller appliance, comprising at least one home appliance device according to claim 1 . 15. The home appliance according to claim 14 , configured as a home appliance chiller device.
