Abstract
The refrigerator (1000) includes a first surface (1); a second surface (2); an insulating element (3) arranged between the first and second surfaces (1, 2); and a sealing device (100). The sealing device (100) is associated with at least one of the first and second surfaces (1, 2) and includes: an external structure (10), an internal structure (20) and a connection region (30) that interconnects the external structure (10) with the internal structure (20); at least one first fixing element (31) arranged in the connection region (30); a through-hole (40) between the external (10) and internal (20) structures; wherein the at least one first fixing element (31) forms a male-female arrangement with at least one of the first and second surfaces (1, 2).

A refrigerator (1000) comprising:
- a first surface (1);
- a second surface (2);
- an insulating element (3) arranged between the first and second surfaces (1, 2);
- and
- a sealing device (100) associated with at least one of the first and second surfaces (1, 2), wherein the sealing device (100) comprises:
- an external structure (10) comprising a first outer region (11) and a second outer region (12) perpendicular to each other,
- an internal structure (20) comprising a first inner region (21) and a second inner region (22) perpendicular to each other,
- a connection region (30) that interconnects the external structure (10) with the internal structure (20),
- at least one first fixing element (31) arranged in the connection region (30), and
- a through-hole (40) between the external (10) and internal (20) structures, wherein the through-hole (40) is exposed on external and internal sides of the sealing device (100), such that the through-hole (40) is accessible on the external and internal sides;
- wherein the at least one first fixing element (31) forms a male-female arrangement with at least one of the first and second surfaces (1, 2).
A sealing device (100) comprising:
- an external structure (10) comprising a first outer region (11) and a second outer region (12) perpendicular to each other;
- an internal structure (20) comprising a first inner region (21) and a second inner region (22) perpendicular to each other;
- a connection region (30) that interconnects the external structure (10) with the internal structure (20);
- at least one first fixing element (31) arranged in the connection region (30);
- and
- a through-hole (40) between the external (10) and internal (20) structures, wherein the through-hole (40) is exposed on external and internal sides of the sealing device (100), such that the through-hole (40) is accessible on the external and internal sides;
- wherein the at least one first fixing element (31) forms a male-female arrangement with at least one of first and second surfaces (1, 2) of a refrigerator;
- and
- wherein an insulating element (3) is arranged between the first and second surfaces (1, 2).
