Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2019077636A1] The invention relates to an arrangement (18) of a drive device (24) on a door (16) that can be arranged such that it is pivotable on a housing (12) of an appliance (10), particularly a cooling and/or refrigerating appliance, in which the drive device (24) designed to pivot the door (16) in relation to the housing (12) is mounted on the door, said drive device comprising: a hinge (22) comprising at least one first hinge part (26) attached to the door (16) and at least one second hinge part (28) which is attached to the housing (12) and coupled to the first hinge part (26) in an articulated manner; at least one drive motor (32); at least one transmission element (38) which is coupled to the hinge (22) in an at least indirectly articulated manner and can be at least indirectly driven by means of the drive motor (32) in order to pivot the hinge parts (26, 28) in relation to each other, and can, as such, be moved in a straight line in relation to the door (16) in order to thereby pivot the door (16) in relation to the housing (12); and a coupling device (52) that can switch between at least one coupling state (K) in which the transmission element (38) is coupled to the drive motor (32) and at least one uncoupling state (E) in which the transmission element (38) is uncoupled from the drive motor (32), the coupling device (52) comprising at least one coupling actuator (56) provided in addition to the drive motor (32) and at least one coupling element (58) that can be moved in relation to the door (16), by means of the coupling actuator (56), between at least one coupling position (KK) creating the coupled state (K) and at least one uncoupling position (EK) creating the uncoupled state (E).
