Abstract:
A method and device for controlling the inside temperature of a refrigeration compartment, the device including a thermostat, a temperature sensor connected to the thermostat, and control means for controlling refrigerating means of the refrigeration compartment; wherein the control means are controlled by the thermostat; the temperature sensor is located far away from the refrigerating means and in a specific portion of the inside volume of the refrigeration compartment, e.g. on a lighting fixture for lighting the inside of the refrigeration compartment and which also supports the thermostat and the control means; and the specific portion of the inside volume of the refrigeration compartment is selected with the exclusion of a first top portion of the volume of the refrigeration compartment having a volume equal to 8-10% of the total inside volume of the refrigeration compartment, with the exclusion of a second front portion of a depth equal to at least 10% of the total inside depth of the refrigeration compartment, and preferably also with the exclusion of a bottom portion of the refrigeration compartment.

Abstract:
A refrigerator-freezer of the combined type comprises a first and a second refrigerating units and a single cooling circuit for both units, which are fluid-dynamically and reciprocally connected by an air passage conduit; the temperature inside the first unit is controlled by a device comprising motorised interception means of the passage conduit; electronic control means of the motorised interception means, directly carried aboard a supporting body adapted in use to be arranged along the passage conduit; an electronic temperature sensor operatively and directly connected to the electronic control means, carried aboard the supporting body; and ventilator means, carried aboard the supporting body, operated by the electronic control means of the motorised interception means for selectively ensuring circulation of air by forced convection between the first and second refrigerating units along the passage conduit.
Abstract:
A lighting device (1) having a bulb-holder (5) made of synthetic, electrically-nonconducting material; possibly a transparent cover; a light source (6); and electronic control means (7) for controlling the light source; the light source (6) includes a high-efficiency, violet-tinged white-light, light-emitting diode (LED) (8), and possibly a reflector (9) formed integral with the bulb-holder (5); and the bulb-holder (5) defines a lighting fixture fittable to an inner wall (3) of a refrigeration compartment (2), and having means (16), typically a thermostat (17), for detecting and controlling operating parameters of the refrigeration compartment (2).
