Home appliance device
For the purpose of providing a home appliance device with improved characteristics regarding user convenience, a home appliance device, in particular a home chiller appliance device, is proposed with at least one bridging unit which is configured for bridging at least one gap between at least one appliance body and at least one part of a piece of furniture, the bridging unit comprising at least one first bridging element and at least one second bridging element that at least partly engages into the first bridging element in at least one assembled state. The second bridging element includes at least one flexible connecting link that is guided in at least one at least sectionally curved guiding slot of the first bridging element.
1. A home appliance device, in particular a home chiller appliance device, comprising at least one bridging unit which is configured for bridging at least one gap between at least one appliance body and at least one part of a piece of furniture, the bridging unit comprising at least one first bridging element and at least one second bridging element that at least partly engages into the first bridging element in at least one assembled state, the second bridging element comprising at least one flexible connecting link that is guided in at least one at least sectionally curved guiding slot of the first bridging element, wherein said at least one flexible connecting link is influenced by the curvature of said at least one sectionally curved guiding slot upon being guided in.
2. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , the curved guiding slot being curved in a direction facing away from a front side of the appliance body.
3. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , the first bridging element comprising at least one at least substantially vertical guiding slot in which the connecting link is insertable.
4. The home appliance device according to claim 3 , the vertical guiding slot being, in an assembly position, located above the curved guiding slot.
5. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , the connecting link comprising at least two projections, which are separated from each other by at least one flexible region.
6. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , the connecting link at least mostly having a sawtooth-like profile when viewed in at least one viewing direction.
7. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , the first bridging element being made of one piece.
8. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , the second bridging element being made of one piece.
9. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , the first bridging element being at least mostly made of aluminum.
10. The home appliance device according to claim 1 , the second bridging element being at least mostly made of plastic.
11. A home appliance, in particular a home chiller appliance, comprising at least one home appliance device according to claim 1 .
12. A system comprising a home appliance according to claim 11 ; the appliance body; and the part of the piece of furniture.
13. A method using a home appliance device, in particular a home chiller appliance device, according to claim 1 , for bridging the gap between the appliance body and the part of the piece of furniture, wherein the flexible connecting link of the second bridging element is inserted into the at least one sectionally curved guiding slot of the first bridging element.
14. A home appliance device, in particular a home chiller appliance device, comprising at least one bridging unit which is configured for bridging at least one gap between at least one appliance body and at least one part of a piece of furniture, the bridging unit comprising at least one first bridging element and at least one second bridging element that at least partly engages into the first bridging element in at least one assembled state, the second bridging element comprising at least one flexible connecting link that is guided in at least one at least sectionally curved guiding slot of the first bridging element, wherein said at least one flexible connecting link is curved by a curvature of said at least one sectionally curved guiding slot upon being guided in.
