A household refrigeration appliance includes a heat-insulated body which has an inner container with a coolable interior for storing foodstuffs, a refrigeration device for cooling the coolable interior, an electromechanical opening assistance device, and a door leaf hinged relative to the body for opening and closing the coolable interior, or a drawer which is pushed into the coolable interior in the closed state, to close the interior, and is withdrawn at least partially from the coolable interior in the open state. The electromechanical opening assistance device has an electromechanical actuator configured when activated to automatically open the closed door leaf or the closed drawer at least partially by repositioning an operating element of the electromechanical opening assistance device. The electromechanical actuator has an electric motor, a drive pinion, a cylindrical gear with dual gearing, and a toothed rack.
