Definitions
- the object of this invention is related to a "Moulded cover for electrical appliances, with electronic control incorporated".
- washing machines Even though the object described can be of application in a wide range of appliances such as washing machines, dryers or dish washers, the present description is centred, as a possibility and not exclusively, on washing machines and among these, preferably, those which are front-loading.
- the known front-loading washing machines have controls for manual regulation of their operation (selection of washing programs, regulation of temperature, door opening) located on the front part of the body, above the loading door. This arrangement limits the possibility of raising said door in position and, as a consequence, compels the user to bend more to carry out the operations of filling and emptying the revolving drum of the machine.
- the position of the controls described above signifies that the electric power distribution for feeding the different receiving elements, has to be carried out on the interior of the general frame of the machine, with the ensuing difficulty for running and connecting the wiring.
- the electric power distribution on the interior of the washing machine involves the dispersion of the points for testing the operation of its mechanisms, which supposes an added difficulty for locating possible faults.
- Patent ES 2 129 160 refers to a top cover panel for appliances with fastening means. It incorporates an agglomerate flat board, a second frame for gripping the board against a peripheral frame, said second frame supporting electromechanical components of the appliance.
- the purpose of the invention consists in overcoming the drawbacks described above, inherent in the covers for known appliances, having been conceived, studied, designed and executed in pursuit of this priority objective.
- the essential feature of this invention consists in the use of the configuration of the cover as an inverted rectangular basin, to house therein the electronic components of the control system for operation of the electrical appliance, such as a washing machine.
- This basic idea is materialised by moulding the cover with housings in its interior, of shape, dimensions and relative position adequate to hold the electronic components or cards which will change from being located inside the chassis of the washing machine, to being inside the cover.
- control panel will move from the front surface of the washing machine to the front segment of the frame of the cover; and its positional ascent will allow a certain height to be gained for the revolving recipient of the washing machine and to reduce the degree to which the user must bend in the filling and emptying operations thereof.
- the cover (5) has in its internal structure, housings (1) of shape, dimensions and relative position adequate for holding the electronic components or cards (2) which govern and control the operation of the washing machine whose control panel (3) is presented on the front segment of the frame (4) of the cover (5).
