Definitions

  • the invention relates to a front-loadable laundry treatment machine such as washing machine, tumble dryer or washer-dryer with a housing, with a closed by a door predominantly circular housing opening, a swing-mounted in the housing tub with a horizontally rotating drum with a predominantly circular drum opening for introducing or removing laundry and a sealing collar for tubular connection between the housing opening and the drum opening, wherein the central axis of the housing opening with respect to the central axis of the drum opening is arranged higher.
  • the invention thus has the task of providing a laundry treatment machine, which ensures a simple way improved accessibility to the drum interior during loading or unloading.
  • the advantages achievable with the invention are that the user can fill or unload the drum in a comfortable attitude with laundry. Another advantage is that a very good insight into the drum makes it much easier to search hidden laundry items.
  • a front loadable laundry treating machine such as a washing machine, tumble dryer or washer dryer with a housing and a rotatably mounted therein drum with an at least approximately horizontal axis of rotation
  • the housing includes a closable by a door substantially circular housing opening, which is arranged opposite the front side and arranged around the axis of rotation also circular drum opening offset parallel higher.
  • the housing opening has a first diameter and the drum opening has a second diameter, wherein the first diameter is greater than the second diameter, an operator can comfortably with both arms simultaneously reach into the interior of the drum, for example, finished laundry from the drum exit.
  • the central axis of the housing opening is arranged parallel to the axis of rotation of the drum or the central axis of the drum opening.
  • the central axis is arranged only an amount higher, that the lower edge of the housing opening is aligned substantially horizontally with the lower edge of the drum opening.
  • the upper edge of the housing opening is thus significantly higher than the upper edge of the drum opening.
  • the diameter of the housing opening is formed by a factor of 1.05 to 1.3 greater than the diameter of the drum opening. For a given drum opening with a diameter of about 30 cm, this results in a diameter for the door opening of about 32 cm. This ensures good accessibility to the interior of the drum as well as an appealing appearance.
  • the housing opening is inclined relative to the vertical.
  • design specifications can be met, improving accessibility and insight into the interior of the drum.
  • depth of the device angle have proven in a range between 5 and 10 degrees for the inclination.
  • the housing opening For washing machines or washer-dryers, it is customary to connect the housing opening with the suds container opening through a sealing collar.
  • the drum interior is accessible from the housing opening through the gasket.
  • the gasket between the housing opening and drum opening on a flat tubular connecting portion essentially forms a smooth transition from the larger housing opening to the lower parallel smaller drum opening.
  • the flat tubular connecting portion corresponds substantially to the geometric basic shape of an oblique truncated cone.
  • a front loadable laundry treating machine 1 with a housing 3 and a drum 7 is shown.
  • a washing machine 2 or a washer-dryer is shown as a laundry treatment machine 1
  • the following explanations also apply to a clothes dryer, not shown, which contains no sealing sleeve 18 and no tub 16 compared to a washing machine 2 or a washer-dryer 2.
  • the housing 3 contains a front wall 4 with a housing opening 6, which ensures passage through the drum opening 9 to the interior of the drum 7. This is necessary for loading the drum 7 with items of laundry or removing items of laundry from the drum 7.
  • the axis of rotation 11 of the drum is horizontal.
  • the central axis 10 of the housing opening 6 is also arranged horizontally, but axially offset upwards or arranged higher.
  • the diameter dg of the housing opening 6 is greater than the diameter dt of the drum opening 9.
  • the upwardly flared housing opening 6 allows an operator an enlarged angle 22 for the insight into the drum 7, so that almost the entire underlying area 23 of the drum shell can be surveyed in its depth.
  • the course between the upper edge 14 of the drum opening 9 and the upper edge 12 of the housing opening 6 is illustrated by the upper course line 20.
  • the course between the lower edge 15 of the drum opening 9 and the lower edge 13 of the housing opening 6 is represented by the lower course line 21.
  • the lower curve 21 is almost horizontal or is only slightly increasing, which illustrates that the lower edge 13 of the housing opening 6 is arranged only slightly higher than the lower edge 15 of the drum opening 9.
  • An aligned arrangement of the lower edge 13 of the housing opening with the lower edge 15 of the drum opening is also conceivable in an embodiment not shown. In both embodiments, the laundry items when removing from the interior of the drum 7 are not or only slightly raised in height.
  • the upper progression line 20 illustrates that the upper edge 12 of the housing opening 6 is arranged clearly above the upper edge 14 of the drum opening 9. This ensures that the view from above in a convenient for the operator distance is not adjusted or impaired by the upper edge 12 of the housing opening 6.
  • the axis of rotation of the drum 11 inclined relative to the horizontal. It is possible for further embodiments the central axis 10 of the housing opening 6 to form the horizontal parallel or inclined or parallel to the axis with an inclined axis of rotation 11 of the drum 7.
  • the front view according to Fig. 2 illustrates the axially parallel arrangement of the drum 7 and drum opening 9 to the housing opening 6.
  • the door 5 is formed substantially circular, whereby an optically advantageous appearance is achieved.
  • the Fig. 3 illustrates that the diameter dg of the housing opening 6 is greater than the diameter dt of the drum opening 9, the two openings substantially aligned with each other as seen from above. Due to the larger housing opening 6, it is possible for an operator to comfortably grasp with both arms in the interior of the drum 7, whereby the removal of the laundry items from the interior of the drum 7 is facilitated. This is also achieved in that the projected course of the diameter dt of the drum opening dt to the diameter dg of the housing opening has an angle w. Here, it is particularly advantageous that the drum opening 9 does not have to be enlarged.
  • the remaining end-face ring of the drum cap 8 the width of which results essentially from the difference between drum diameter dm and diameter dt of the drum opening 9, thus receives a width that prevents leakage of laundry items from the interior of the drum 7 during the washing process with high reliability ,
  • the diameter dg of the housing opening 6 For laundry treatment machines 1 with 5 to 6 kg of laundry, as currently prevalent in the household sector, it is expedient to make the diameter dg of the housing opening 6 with respect to the diameter dt of the drum opening 9 by a factor of 1.05 to 1.3 greater. At a predetermined diameter dt for the drum opening 9 of about 30 cm results for the diameter dg of the housing opening 6 has a diameter of about 31.5 to 39 cm.
  • FIG. 1 An embodiment of a washing machine 2 or a washer-dryer 2 is known from Fig. 1 seen.
  • the drum 7 is rotatably disposed within a tub 16.
  • the tub 16 has axially a substantially horizontal orientation, as well as the axis of rotation 11 of the drum 7 has a substantially axial orientation.
  • a sealing collar 18 between the housing opening 6 and the tub opening 17.
  • the drum opening 9 is placed in this embodiment on the axis of the tub opening 17, wherein the diameter dt of the drum opening 9 is smaller than the diameter of the tub opening 17.
  • the gasket 18 is formed so that it provides a transition between housing opening 6 and drum opening 9 ,
  • the gasket 18 has a tubular connecting portion 19 which substantially corresponds to the shape of an oblique truncated cone.
  • the base of the oblique truncated cone is formed by the surface of the circular housing opening 6.
  • the surface of the truncated cone end is formed by the surface of the circular drum opening 9.
