Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine frontbeschickbare Wäschebehandlungsmaschine mit einem Gehäuse, mit einer durch eine Tür verschließbaren im Wesentlichen kreisförmigen Gehäuseöffnung und einem in dem Gehäuse schwingbeweglich befestigten Laugenbehälter, mit einer im Wesentlichen kreisförmigen Laugenbehälteröffnung und einer Dichtungsmanschette, die die Gehäuseöffnung und die Laugenbehälteröffnung verbindet, wobei die Dichtungsmanschette auf eine um die Gehäuseöffnung umlaufende Abkantung gestülpt ist, und dieser überstülpte Bereich mit einem als Spannring ausgebildeten Spannelement zusammenwirkt, und in diesem Bereich eine umlaufende zur Türöffnung gerichtete Dichtlippe für die Tür angeordnet ist, sowie eine Dichtungsmanschette für eine Wäschebehandlungsmaschine.The invention relates to a front-loadable laundry treatment machine having a housing with a substantially circular housing opening which can be closed by a door and a suds container which is fixed in a swinging manner in the housing, with a substantially circular suds container opening and a sealing sleeve which connects the housing opening and the suds container opening, wherein the sealing sleeve is slipped onto a circumferential edge around the housing opening, and this everted portion cooperates with a clamping element designed as a clamping element, and in this area a circumferential door opening directed sealing lip is arranged for the door, and a gasket for a laundry treatment machine.
Aus dem Stand der Technik gemäß der
Gemäß der
Eine andere Ausführungsform der Einbindung der Dichtungsmanschette zwischen der Gehäuseöffnung und der Laugenbehälteröffnung dokumentiert die
Jedoch weisen diese aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Lösungen dahingehend noch Nachteile auf, die darin zu sehen sind, dass der für die Einbindung der Dichtungsmanschette bestimmte Bereich noch zu optimieren ist, zumal die Dichtlippe, die sich bei geschlossener Tür an das Türschauglas anlegt, beim wieder Öffnen der Tür sehr großen Spielraum aufweist, wodurch nachteilige Verformungen der Dichtlippe auftreten können. Das bedeutet, dass bei einer schlechten radialen oder axialen Führung im Bereich der Überstülpung dies unter ungünstigen Umständen auch bei geschlossener Tür zu Undichtigkeiten führen kann. Bei den beschriebenen herkömmlichen Vorderwandanbindungen wird ein Spannelement benutzt, das in radialer Richtung den Türdichtring in einer umlaufenden Nut verspannt. Bedingt durch die Entfernung zwischen den Krafteinleitungspunkten im Bereich der Dichtlippe und der Kraftausleitung zum Spannring müssen axiale und radiale Druckkräfte durch das Elastomer aufgenommen werden. Dies führt materialbedingt zum Ausknicken und somit zu einer mangelhaften Formstabilität des überstülpten Bereichs, wodurch die Dichtlippe instabil bzw. hinsichtlich Ihrer Lage veränderbar ist. Zusätzlich wird die Formstabilität des Elastomers durch die dauerhafte Einwirkung von Lauge und Waschtemperatur verschlechtert. Dies kann bei erhöhter Lebensdauer zu Undichtigkeiten im Übergang zwischen der Dichtlippe der Dichtungsmanschette und dem Schauglas führen. Zudem wird es als nachteilig angesehen, dass bei einigen der Ausführungsformen des Standes der Technik der in der Abkantung liegende Spannring sichtbar ist.However, these solutions known from the prior art still have disadvantages which can be seen in the fact that the area intended for the integration of the gasket still has to be optimized, especially since the sealing lip which bears against the door glass when the door is closed again opening the door has very large margin, whereby adverse deformations of the sealing lip can occur. This means that in the case of poor radial or axial guidance in the region of the protuberance under unfavorable circumstances, even with the door closed can lead to leaks. In the described conventional front wall connections, a clamping element is used, which braces the door seal in a circumferential groove in the radial direction. Due to the distance between the force application points in the area of the sealing lip and the force output to the clamping ring axial and radial compressive forces must be absorbed by the elastomer. Due to the material, this leads to buckling and thus to a poor dimensional stability of the over-turned region, as a result of which the sealing lip is unstable or changeable with respect to its position. In addition, the dimensional stability of the elastomer is deteriorated by the long-term action of alkali and washing temperature. This can lead to leaks in the transition between the sealing lip of the gasket and the sight glass with increased life. In addition, it is considered disadvantageous that in some of the embodiments of the prior art, the clamping ring lying in the fold is visible.
Der Erfindung stellt sich somit das Problem, die Stabilität der Dichtungsmanschette, und hier insbesondere im Einbindungsbereich an der umlaufenden Abkantung der Gehäuseöffnung, zu verbessern, um auf diese Weise eine erhöhte Lebensdauer und eine zuverlässige Dichtigkeit zu erreichen.The invention thus raises the problem of improving the stability of the gasket, and here in particular in the binding area on the peripheral fold of the housing opening, in order to achieve in this way an increased life and a reliable seal.
Erfindungsgemäß wird dieses Problem mit einer frontbeschickbaren Wäschebehandlungsmaschine mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 und mit einer Dichtungsmanschette mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 9 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den abhängigen Ansprüchen 2 bis 8.According to the invention, this problem is solved with a front-loading laundry treating machine with the features of
Die mit der Erfindung erreichten Vorteile bestehen darin, dass der Einbindungsbereich der Dichtungsmanschette an der Vorderwand stabilisiert wird, wodurch Verformungen in diesem Bereich vermieden und im angrenzenden Bereich zumindest vermindert werden. Somit werden die erforderlichen radialen Abstützkräfte für die Dichtlippe erreicht, so dass sich die Krafteinleitungen durch die bewegte Dichtlippe kaum auf die anderen Bereiche der Dichtungsmanschette hinsichtlich der Verformung auswirken. Ein weiterer positiver Effekt ist, dass die neue Lösung optisch wesentlich ansprechender ist, weil der Spannring, und der Spalt in dem er sitzt, nicht mehr zu sehen ist, weil er durch die Abstützung überdeckt ist.The advantages achieved by the invention are that the binding area of the gasket is stabilized on the front wall, whereby deformations in this area are avoided and at least reduced in the adjacent area. Thus, the required radial support forces are achieved for the sealing lip, so that the force exerted by the moving sealing lip hardly affect the other regions of the gasket with respect to the deformation. Another positive effect is that the new solution is visually much more appealing because the clamping ring, and the gap in which it sits, is no longer visible, because it is covered by the support.
Hierzu ist erfindungsgemäß der überstülpte Bereich der Dichtungsmanschette mit einem umlaufenden ringförmigen Abstützelement versehen, welches den Spannring radial außenseitig im überstülpten Bereich abdeckt und dadurch den überstülpten Bereich stützt.For this purpose, according to the invention, the turned-over region of the sealing collar is provided with a circumferential annular support element, which covers the clamping ring radially on the outside in the over-turned region and thereby supports the over-turned region.
In vorteilhafter Weiterbildung ist hierbei das ringförmige Abstützelement an den überstülpten Bereich der Dichtungsmanschette angeformt bzw. einstückig ausgebildet. Dabei ist das als Abstützring ausgebildete Abstützelement als umlaufender Steg ausgebildet, der in seiner Stützstellung im Querschnitt eine rechtwinklige Lage zur Dichtlippe einnimmt und somit als Gegenlager zur Dichtlippe wirkt.In an advantageous embodiment, in this case the annular support element is integrally formed or integrally formed on the everted region of the gasket. It is as Abstützring trained support member formed as a circumferential ridge, which occupies a right angle to the sealing lip in its support position in cross-section and thus acts as an abutment to the sealing lip.
Gemäß einer besondert vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann das Abstützelement mit einem Filmscharnier im überstülpten Bereich hinter der Dichtlippe angeformt sein, so dass es nach der Montage der Dichtungsmanschette in die Stützlage klapp- oder faltbar ist. Diese Lösung ist insbesondere werkzeugtechnisch einfach zu realisieren, wobei das Abstützelement durch ein nachträgliches Umklappen in seine Stützlage gebracht werden kann, nachdem der überstülpte Bereich an der Abkantung angesetzt ist. Bei der Herstellung der Dichtungsmanschette wird der entsprechende Bereich in axialer Richtung oberhalb der Dichtlippe angeformt bzw. einstückig spritzgegossen und nach der Montage an der Abkantung der Gehäuseöffnung und dem Anlegen und Spannen des Klemmringes in seine Stützlage geklappt. Um das Umklappen zu erleichtern, ist das Abstützelement durch eine Art Filmscharnier an der Dichtungsmanschette angebunden. Dadurch, dass das Abstützelement in der Spritzgussform radial mit einem Untermaß versehen wurde, sitzt es in der Stützlage durch die radiale Aufweitung auch ohne zusätzliche Arretierung fest. Es wirkt so eine Zugkraft in dem Abstützelement. Ein zusätzlich positiver Effekt ist, dass der Spannring unter dem Abstützelement verschwindet. Das radial mittels Filmscharnier angeformte Abstützelement weist hinsichtlich seines Umfangs gegenüber dem überstülpten Bereich ein geringes Untermaß auf, so dass es in der Stützstellung vorgespannt ist.According to a particularly advantageous development of the invention, the support member may be integrally formed with a film hinge in the everted region behind the sealing lip, so that it can be folded or folded after mounting the gasket in the support layer. This solution is particularly easy to implement in terms of tools, wherein the support element can be brought by subsequent folding in its supporting position after the over-bent portion is attached to the fold. In the manufacture of the sealing sleeve of the corresponding area is formed in the axial direction above the sealing lip or integrally injection molded and folded after assembly to the fold of the housing opening and the application and tensioning of the clamping ring in its supporting position. To facilitate the folding, the support element is connected by a kind of film hinge to the gasket. Because the support element has been radially provided with an undersize in the injection mold, it sits firmly in the support position due to the radial expansion even without additional locking. It acts as a tensile force in the support element. An additional positive effect is that the clamping ring disappears under the support element. The radially integrally formed by a film hinge support member has a small undersize in terms of its circumference with respect to the everted region, so that it is biased in the support position.
In Weiterbildung des Abstützelementes nimmt dieses von seiner Querschnittserstreckung her eine Keilform ein, wobei der nach außen weisende Schenkel in Verlängerung das Filmscharnier bildet, und wobei der nach innen weisende Schenkel mit der Grundseite des Keils eine Stützanlage am oberen überstülpten Bereich bildet. Die Keilform als solches ist hierbei stützseitig stumpf ausgebildet und mit ihrer stumpfen Fläche bildet sie eine Stützanlage gegenüber dem unteren überstülpten Bereich. Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung kann hierbei an der stumpfen Fläche eine Arretiernase angeformt sein, die mit einer an dem unteren Bereich ebenfalls angeformten Arretiernase im gefalteten bzw. im geklappten Zustand des Abstützelementes zusammenwirkt.In a further development of the support element this takes from its cross-sectional extension forth a wedge shape, wherein the outwardly facing legs in extension forms the film hinge, and wherein the inwardly facing legs with the base side of the wedge forms a support system at the upper everted region. As such, the wedge shape is stump-shaped on the support side, and with its blunt surface it forms a supporting device with respect to the lower pushed-over region. According to an advantageous development, a locking nose can be formed on the blunt surface, which cooperates with a locking nose which is likewise integrally formed on the lower region in the folded or in the folded state of the supporting element.
Die Erfindung betrifft ebenfalls eine Dichtungsmanschette für eine frontbeschickbare Wäschebehandlungsmaschine mit einem Gehäuse und einem Laugenbehälter zur Verbindung zwischen einer Gehäuseöffnung zum Einbringen oder Herausnehmen von Wäsche und einer Laugenbehälteröffnung, wobei die Dichtungsmanschette auf eine um die Gehäuseöffnung umlaufende Abkantung stülpbar ist, und dieser überstülpte Bereich mit einem als Spannring ausgebildeten Spannelement zusammenwirkbar ist, wobei in diesem Bereich eine umlaufende zur Öffnung gerichtete Dichtlippe für die Tür angeordnet ist. Hierzu zeichnet sich die Dichtungsmanschette dadurch aus, dass der überstülpte Bereich der Dichtungsmanschette mit einem umlaufenden ringförmigen Abstützelement versehen ist, wodurch der Spannring radial außenseitig im überstülpten Bereich abdeckbar und dadurch der überstülpte Bereich stützbar ist.The invention also relates to a gasket for a front loadable laundry treatment machine with a housing and a tub for connection between a housing opening for introducing or removing laundry and a suds container opening, wherein the gasket is slipped onto a peripheral edge around the housing opening fold, and this everted region with a designed as a clamping ring clamping element is cooperable, wherein in this area a circumferential arranged for opening sealing lip for the door is arranged. For this purpose, the gasket is characterized by the fact that the everted portion of the gasket is provided with a circumferential annular support element, whereby the clamping ring radially on the outside in the everted region can be covered and thereby the over-pushed area is sustainable.
