Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Haushaltsgerät mit einem höhenverstellbaren Fuß bereitzustellen, das bei einfachem Aufbau und hoher Stabilität kostengünstig herstellbar ist.The invention is therefore based on the object to provide a household appliance with a height-adjustable foot, which is inexpensive to produce with a simple structure and high stability.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Haushaltsgerät mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen ergeben sich jeweils aus den abhängigen Ansprüchen.This object is achieved by a household appliance with the features of
Die Erfindung geht aus von einem Haushaltsgerät, bspw. einem Herd, einer Waschmaschine, einem Wäschetrockner oder einer Geschirrspülmaschine, mit zumindest einer Verstellvorrichtung für einen Stellfuß des Haushaltsgeräts, bestehend aus einem in einem Verstellgehäuse gelagerten und axial verstellbaren Gewindeschaft oder -bolzen.The invention is based on a household appliance, for example a stove, a washing machine, a tumble dryer or a dishwasher, with at least one adjusting device for a setting foot of the household appliance, consisting of a threaded shaft or bolt mounted in an adjusting housing and axially adjustable.
Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass der Gewindeschaft oder -bolzen und der Teller gegeneinander verdrehbar miteinander verbunden sind und der Gewindeschaft oder - bolzen derart ausgestaltet ist, dass dieser mit einer in dem Verstellgehäuse drehbar gelagerten Schnecke in Eingriff bringbar ist, um über eine Drehbewegung der Schnecke unmittelbar eine Drehung des Gewindeschafts oder -bolzens herbei zu führen. So wird vermeiden, dass durch eine Drehung des Gewindeschafts oder -bolzens und dem mit diesem verbundenen Teller eine Beschädigung des Untergrunds herbeigeführt wird. Ferner ist dadurch, dass der Gewindeschaft oder -bolzen derart ausgestaltet ist, dass dieser mit einer in dem Verstellgehäuse drehbar gelagerten Schnecke in Eingriff bringbar ist, um über eine Drehbewegung der Schnecke unmittelbar eine Drehung des Gewindeschafts oder -bolzens herbeizuführen, mit Vorteil ein Getriebe geschaffen, das gegenüber den aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Anordnungen weniger Bauteile aufweist, wodurch die Verstellvorrichtung insgesamt weniger Platz benötigt. Erzielt wird dies insbesondere dadurch, dass die Schnecke und der Gewindeschaft oder -bolzen in unmittelbarem Eingriff stehen. Möglich wird dies dadurch, dass der Gewindeschaft oder - bolzen gegenüber dem Verstellgehäuse drehbar gelagert ist. Über die mit dem Gewindeschaft oder -bolzen in Verbindung stehende Schnecke wird dann eine Drehung des Gewindeschafts bewirkt, um diesen axial in die gewünschte Richtung zu verstellen.According to the invention, it is provided that the threaded shank or bolt and the plate are mutually rotatably connected to each other and the threaded shaft or - bolt is designed such that it can be brought into engagement with a rotatably mounted in the adjusting screw in engagement to a rotational movement of the screw directly to cause a rotation of the threaded shaft or bolt. Thus, it will be avoided that damage to the ground is caused by rotation of the threaded shaft or bolt and the plate connected thereto. Further, characterized in that the threaded shaft or bolt is designed such that it is engageable with a rotatably mounted in the adjusting screw in order to bring about a rotational movement of the screw directly to a rotation of the threaded shaft or bolt, created with advantage a gear , Compared to the arrangements known from the prior art fewer components has, whereby the adjusting device requires less space overall. This is achieved in particular by the fact that the screw and the threaded shaft or bolt are in direct engagement. This is made possible by the fact that the threaded shaft or bolt is rotatably mounted relative to the adjusting housing. About the associated with the threaded shank or bolt screw then rotation of the threaded shaft is effected in order to adjust this axially in the desired direction.
Um eine Verstellung des Gewindeschafts oder -bolzens in dessen axialer Richtung auch von der Vorderseite eines zu verstellenden Gegenstands bewirken zu können, ist es vorteilhaft, wenn sich gemäß einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung die Achsen der Schnecke und des Gewindeschafts oder -bolzens in einem Winkel, bevorzugt einem 90°-Winkel, kreuzen.In order to effect an adjustment of the threaded shaft or bolt in the axial direction of the front of an object to be adjusted, it is advantageous if according to an embodiment of the invention, the axes of the screw and the threaded shaft or bolt at an angle preferred a 90 ° angle, cross.
Zur Herbeiführung einer Drehung des Gewindeschafts oder -bolzens durch eine Schnecke, die mit dem Gewindeschaft oder -bolzen in unmittelbarem Eingriff steht, ist gemäß der Erfindung vorgesehen, dem Gewinde des Gewindeschafts oder -bolzens eine Verzahnung zu überlagern, um den direkten Eingriff der Schnecke in den Gewindeschaft oder -bolzen zu ermöglichen.To effect a rotation of the threaded shaft or bolt by a worm, which is in direct engagement with the threaded shank or bolt, it is provided according to the invention to superimpose a toothing on the thread of the threaded shaft or bolt in order to ensure direct engagement of the worm in to allow the threaded shaft or bolt.
Die Verzahnung kann durch eine Mehrzahl von in den Gewindeschaft oder -bolzen eingebrachte Nuten gebildet werden, die sich im Wesentlichen parallel zueinander verlaufend erstrecken. Der Verzicht auf ein weiteres Schneckenrad, das bei Betätigung der Schnecke eine axiale Verstellung des Gewindeschafts oder -bolzens im Stand der Technik bewerkstelligt, wird mit anderen Worten dadurch möglich, dass dem Gewinde des Gewindeschafts eine weitere Verzahnung überlagert wird, die derart ausgestaltet ist, dass sie an das Schneckengewinde der Schnecke angepasst ist. Bevorzugt verlaufen die Nuten dabei schraubenförmig, wobei gegenüber der Achse des Gewindeschafts oder - bolzens ein spitzer Winkel gebildet ist.The toothing may be formed by a plurality of grooves formed in the threaded shank or bolt which extend substantially parallel to each other. The omission of a further worm wheel, which accomplishes an axial adjustment of the threaded shaft or bolt in the prior art upon actuation of the worm, is in other words possible in that the thread of the threaded shaft, a further toothing is superimposed, which is designed such that it is adapted to the worm thread of the worm. Preferably, the grooves are helical, with an acute angle being formed with respect to the axis of the threaded shaft or bolt.
Bevorzugt übergreift das Verstellgehäuse den Gewindeschaft oder -bolzen, so dass das Gewinde des Gewindeschafts oder -bolzens in ein entsprechendes Gewinde einer Bohrung des Verstellgehäuses eingreift. Anders ausgedrückt, bedeutet dies, dass das Verstellgehäuse selbst ein Gewinde aufweist, so dass der Gewindeschaft oder -bolzen mit seinem Gewinde in dieses eindrehbar ist. Das Verstellgehäuse kann auch über ein separates Bauteil, das mit diesem formschlüssig verbunden ist, aufweisen, welches dann mit einem Gewinde versehen ist, in welches der Gewindeschaft oder -bolzen eindrehbar ist. Das Verstellgehäuse kann auch durch einen Teil des zu verstellenden Gegenstands selbst gebildet sein.Preferably, the adjusting housing engages over the threaded shank or bolt, so that the thread of the threaded shaft or bolt engages in a corresponding thread of a bore of the adjusting housing. In other words, this means that the adjusting housing itself has a thread, so that the threaded shaft or bolt with its thread can be screwed into this. The adjustment housing can also have a separate component which is positively connected thereto, which is then provided with a thread, in which the threaded shaft or bolt can be screwed. The adjustment can also be formed by a part of the object to be adjusted itself.
Nach einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung ist die Schnecke einer Buchse des Verstellgehäuses drehbar gelagert. Besonders bevorzugt ist es dabei, wenn die Buchse formschlüssig lösbar im Verstellgehäuse angeordnet ist. Diese Vorgehensweise ermöglicht es, bei der Fertigung der Verstellvorrichtung wahlweise eine Schnecke in der Verstellvorrichtung vorzusehen oder auch nicht. Dadurch, dass der Gewindeschaft oder - bolzen drehbar in einem Gewinde der Verstellvorrichtung gelagert ist, ist es auch möglich, den Gegenstand durch unmittelbares Verdrehen des Gewindeschafts oder -bolzens zu verstellen. Eine komfortablere Verstellmöglichkeit ist dann gegeben, wenn die axiale Verschiebung des Gewindeschafts oder -bolzens mittels der dann in der Verstellvorrichtung vorgesehenen Schnecke erfolgen kann. Die bevorzugte Verstellvorrichtung mit Schnecke kann beispielsweise während der Fertigung Gegenständen einer höheren Preiskategorie vorbehalten bleiben, während Gegenstände einer unteren Preiskategorie lediglich durch direktes Verdrehen des Gewindeschafts oder -bolzens einstellbar sind, da die Schnecke bei diesen weggelassen ist.According to a further advantageous embodiment, the screw of a bushing of the adjusting housing is rotatably mounted. It is particularly preferred if the socket is arranged releasably releasably in the adjustment. This procedure makes it possible to optionally provide a screw in the adjustment in the manufacture of the adjustment or not. Because the threaded shank or bolt is rotatably mounted in a thread of the adjusting device, it is also possible to adjust the object by direct rotation of the threaded shaft or bolt. A more comfortable adjustment is given when the axial displacement of the threaded shaft or bolt can be done by means of the then provided in the adjustment screw. The preferred screw adjustment device may, for example, be reserved for articles of a higher price category during manufacture, while articles of a lower price category can only be adjusted by direct rotation of the threaded shaft or bolt, since the screw is omitted therefrom.
In einer weiteren zweckmäßigen Ausgestaltung ist die Schnecke 1- oder 2-gängig ausgebildet. Die Wahl, mit wie viel Gängen das Gewinde der Schnecke ausgebildet wird, hängt davon ab, mit welchem Verdrehwinkel der Schnecke welcher axiale Weg des Gewindeschafts oder -bolzens betätigt werden soll, bzw. welche Kräfte auf die Verzahnung auf den Gewindeschaft bzw. -bolzen einwirken dürfen, ohne dass dieser im Einsatz beschädigt wird. Die geeignete Wahl hängt letztendlich davon ab, welcher Gegenstand mittels der erfindungsgemäßen Verstellvorrichtung verstellt werden soll.In a further advantageous embodiment, the screw is formed 1- or 2-course. The choice with how many courses the thread of the screw is formed, depends on which angle of rotation of the screw which axial path of the threaded shaft or bolt is to be actuated, or which forces act on the teeth on the threaded shaft or bolt may be damaged without it being damaged during operation. The appropriate choice ultimately depends on which object is to be adjusted by means of the adjusting device according to the invention.
Wahlweise kann der Gewindeschaft oder -bolzen und/oder die Schnecke aus einem Kunststoff, insbesondere mittels eines Spritzgussverfahrens, oder einem Metall gefertigt werden. Der Gewindeschaft kann vorzugsweise einteilig oder mehrteilig, insbesondere zweiteilig aus einem Rohrelement und einer Gewindestange, ausgebildet sein. Die Verwendung von Metall ermöglicht dabei besonders langlebige Verstellvorrichtungen, da auch häufige Betätigung nicht zu einem nennenswerten Verschleiß führen wird.Alternatively, the threaded shaft or bolt and / or the worm can be made of a plastic, in particular by means of an injection molding process, or a metal. The threaded shaft may preferably be formed in one or more parts, in particular in two parts, of a tubular element and a threaded rod. The use of metal allows particularly long-lived adjustment, as well as frequent operation will not lead to significant wear.

Mit der Anordnung nur eines Stellfußes mit einer von einer Gehäuseseitenwand aus bedienbaren Verstellvorrichtung wird der Aufwand bei einem Haushaltsgerät und damit die Kosten gesenkt.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the household appliance is equipped with at least three leveling feet, two steep feet are arranged on the front of the household appliance and a foot on the back of the appliance, and wherein the rear-mounted adjustable foot with the adjustment of a side wall of the household appliance in height is adjustable. With the arrangement of only one adjustable foot with an operable from a side wall of the housing adjusting the effort in a household appliance and thus the cost is reduced.
Nach einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist der rückseitig an dem Haushaltsgerät angeordnete Stellfuß etwa in der Mitte der unteren rückseitigen Gehäusekante des Haushaltsgerätes angeordnet. Durch die Anordnung des rückseitig angeordneten Stellfußes etwa in der Mitte der unteren rückseitigen Gehäusekante ist eine Auflage mit dem Grundriss eines etwa gleichschenkeligen Dreiecks, das die stabilste Auflageform einer Dreipunktauflage darstellt, geschaffen.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the arranged on the rear side of the household adjusting foot is arranged approximately in the middle of the lower rear housing edge of the household appliance. Due to the arrangement of the rear foot arranged approximately in the middle of the lower rear housing edge is a support with the floor plan of an approximately isosceles triangle, which represents the most stable support form of a three-point support created.
Vorteilhafterweise weist zumindest die Verstellvorrichtung des rückseitig angeordneten Stellfußes die in den Gewindeschaft oder -bolzen eingreifende Schnecke auf, die über eine mit ihr in Wirkverbindung stehende und in dem Haushaltsgerät drehbar gelagerte, von der Vorderseite des Haushaltsgeräts bedienbare Verstellstange betätigbar ist.Advantageously, at least the adjusting device of the adjusting foot arranged on the rear side engages the worm engaging in the threaded shank or bolt, which can be actuated via an adjusting rod that is operatively connected to it and rotatably mounted in the household appliance and can be operated by the front of the household appliance.
