Patent attributes
A refrigerating appliance having a refrigerant circulation device arranged in the housing of the appliance and including a compressor, an evaporator, and a condenser having an inner circuit and an outer circuit. The inner circuit is in communication with a region to be cooled, preferably the inner region of a control box, by a lateral wall of the appliance housing, an air inlet and an air outlet, the evaporator being associated with the inner circuit and the condenser of the refrigerant circulation device being associated with the outer circuit. According to this invention, all of the lateral walls, except the lateral wall comprising the air inlet and the air outlet of the appliance housing, are fully closed, and the condenser is formed as a base plate with integrated refrigerant lines. The base plate forms at least part of a lateral wall of the appliance housing. Refrigerating ribs protrude on the outer side thereof. Thus, the refrigerating appliance has a structure with a system of protection IP 55 or higher, without impairing the function.
