Abstract
A refrigeration device includes an interior space enclosed by a heat-insulating housing and a carrier for refrigerated goods that can be vertically displaced inside the interior space by means of a drive device. The refrigeration device includes a force sensor that detects a change in force acting upon the carrier for refrigerated goods in the direction of displacement and a control which is adapted to stop the carrier for refrigerated goods when a change in force is detected.
