Abstract:
A refrigerating unit, comprising:a cooling chamber having two longitudinal sides; a storage compartment removably guided into and out of said cooling chamber in a movement direction, said storage compartment removably guided into said cooling chamber along said movement direction as far as a closing position; said cooling chamber having a parallel-guiding device disposed on said two longitudinal sides along said movement direction; said parallel-guiding device having: a mating toothed configuration; two rollers coupled approximately rigidly to each other, lying opposite each other at least substantially on a given axis, and each having an external toothed configuration with an identical pitch circle diameter to be rollingly coupled to said mating toothed configuration, one of said mating toothed configuration and said rollers positionally fixed with respect to said cooling chamber; and an end section reached by said rollers along said movement direction by said closing position of said storage compartment; and a disengagement device for disengaging at least part of said mating toothed configuration from said external toothed configuration of at least one of said two rollers, said disengagement device disposed at said end section and having a disengagement length sufficient to compensate for an oblique positioning of said storage compartment in and counter to said movement direction arising from an offset of said two rollers from one another along said mating toothed configuration.
