Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Satz umfassend ein Hausgerät mit einem Gehäuse, welches eine Wand aufweist, und einem in dem Gehäuse aufgehängten schwingenden System, sowie zumindest eine Transportsicherung umfassend eine zwischen der Wand und dem schwingenden System platzlerbare Distanzhülse sowie einen Bolzen mit einem Kopf und einem zylindrischen, ein Außengewinde tragenden Schraubteil, welches Schraubtell durch eine erste Ausnehmung in der Wand und eine erste Bohrung in der Distanzhülse in ein Innengewinde einer zweiten Bohrung in dem schwingenden System schraubbar ist, wobei die Distanzhülse durch eine zweite Ausnehmung in das Gehäuse einführbar und zwischen der Wand und dem schwingenden System verschiebbar ist, so dass die erste Ausnehmung und die erste Bohrung miteinander fluchten.The invention relates to a kit comprising a domestic appliance with a housing, which has a wall, and a swinging system suspended in the housing, and at least one transport securing device comprising a spacer sleeve which can be placed between the wall and the oscillating system and a bolt with a head and a cylindrical an externally threaded screw member which screwing through a first recess in the wall and a first bore in the spacer sleeve in an internal thread of a second bore in the oscillating system is screwed, wherein the spacer sleeve inserted through a second recess in the housing and between the wall and the oscillating system is displaceable, so that the first recess and the first bore are aligned.

Ein solcher Satz geht hervor aus der WO 2006/117253 A1 .Such a sentence emerges from the WO 2006/117253 A1 ,

WO 2005/066409 A1 . EP 0 829 567 B1 , the EP 1 498 537 A1 and the EP 1 491 675 A2 , From each of these further documents, one set comprising a household appliance and at least one transport safety device emerge.

Es gibt Hausgeräte, in welchen während des bestimmungsgemäßen Betriebes jeweils eine größere Masse bewegt, insbesondere rotiert, werden muss. In einem Gerät zur Pflege von Wäsche, insbesondere in einer Waschmaschine, ist dies eine mit der zu pflegenden und in der Regel mit Waschlauge oder Wasser benetzten Wäsche gefüllte Trommel, welche üblicherweise in einem flüssigkeitsdichten Laugenbehälter zum Aufnehmen der Waschlauge oder des Wassers installiert und mit einem an dem Laugenbehälter befestigten Motor verbunden ist. Weitere Komponenten, insbesondere eine Pumpe und/oder eine Sensoranordnung, sind in der Regel ebenfalls mit dem Laugenbehälter verbunden. Der Laugenbehälter mit allen genannten Komponenten ist mit Federn und Dämpfern In einem Gehäuse des Hausgeräts aufgehängt und bildet somit ein "schwingendes System", also ein System, welches in gewissem Umfange auf Kräfte und Momente, welche von der rotierenden Trommel ausgehen, mit Bewegungen, und zwar Schwingungen, reagieren kann. Die mechanische Energie dieser Schwingungen wird in den Dämpfern dissipiert und in Wärme verwandelt, so dass nur geringe Kräfte und Momente von dem schwingenden System auf das Gehäuse einwirken. Deshalb bleibt das Gehäuse bei jeder im Rahmen seines bestimmungsgemäßen Betriebes denkbaren Belastung aufgrund von Schwingungen stabil an dem Ort, an dem es aufgestellt wurde, stehen.There are domestic appliances in which, during normal operation, in each case a larger mass moves, in particular has to be rotated. In a device for the care of laundry, especially in a washing machine, this is a to be maintained and usually wet with wash or water wetted laundry drum, which is usually installed in a liquid-tight tub for receiving the wash liquor or water and with a connected to the tub attached to the motor. Other components, in particular a pump and / or a sensor arrangement are usually also connected to the tub. The tub with all these components is suspended with springs and dampers in a housing of the household appliance and thus forms a "vibrating system", ie a system which to some extent on forces and moments emanating from the rotating drum, with movements, and though Vibrations, can react. The mechanical energy of these vibrations is dissipated in the dampers and converted into heat, so that only small forces and moments from the oscillating system act on the housing. Therefore, the housing remains at each conceivable in the context of its intended operation load due to vibrations stable at the place where it was set up.

Wenn ein solches Hausgerät transportiert werden soll, beispielsweise von einer Fertigungsstätte zu einem Lager, von einem Lager zu einem Händler oder von einem Händler zu einem Benutzer, muss das Hausgerät gesichert sein gegen Schwingungen, welche während des Transports auf es einwirken können. Zu diesem Zweck ist es üblich und wird in den zitierten Dokumenten des Standes der Technik auch ausführlich beschrieben, das Gehäuse und das schwingende System eines solchen Hausgeräts mittels einer speziellen Transportsicherung (oder einer Mehrzahl solcher Transportsicherungen) weitgehend unbeweglich gegeneinander zu fixieren. Diesbezüglich ist die Offenbarung der zitierten Dokumente des Standes der Technik vorliegender Offenbarung in vollem Umfang zuzurechnen.When such a domestic appliance is to be transported, for example, from a manufacturing facility to a warehouse, from a warehouse to a retailer, or from a retailer to a user, the domestic appliance must be secured against vibrations that may act on it during transport. For this purpose, it is common and is described in detail in the cited documents of the prior art, the housing and the oscillating system of such a domestic appliance by means of a special transport lock (or a plurality of such transport locks) largely immovably against each other to fix. In this regard, the disclosure of the cited prior art documents is fully attributable to this disclosure.

Bei der Gestaltung einer Transportsicherung für ein Hausgerät ist eine Vielzahl von Aspekten zu beachten. Es ist nicht nur eine zuverlässige Fixierung zwischen Gehäuse und schwingendem System zu erzielen; zusätzlich muss die Transportsicherung einfach und ohne übermäßigen Aufwand im Rahmen eines routinemäßigen Fertigungsprozesses installierbar sein. Dies kann ggf. auch erst nach vollständigem Zusammenbau des Hausgerätes erfolgen, damit vor der Fixierung zwischen dem Gehäuse und dem schwingenden System ggf. noch eine routinemäßige Funktionsprüfung möglich ist. Schließlich muss sich die Transportsicherung auch durch eine unter Umständen nicht fachkundige Person ohne größere Schwierigkeiten lösen lassen können, da ein Benutzer nicht in jedem Fall eine geschulte Fachperson zur Inbetriebnahme des Hausgerätes hinzuziehen möchte.When designing a transport lock for a household appliance, a variety of aspects must be considered. It is not only a reliable fixation between housing and oscillating system to achieve; In addition, the transport lock must be easy to install and without undue effort in a routine manufacturing process. This may possibly also take place only after complete assembly of the domestic appliance, so that a routine functional test may still be possible before the fixation between the housing and the oscillating system. Finally, the transport safety device must also be able to be solved by a person who may not be competent without major difficulties, since a user does not always want to consult a trained specialist for putting the household appliance into operation.

Wünschenswert ist es, den Bolzen in der Distanzhülse zu haltern, so dass die Distanzhülse mit dem Bolzen als vormontierbare und dauerhafte Einheit ausbildbar ist und der Bolzen nur unter erheblichem Kraftaufwand aus der Distanzhülse entfernt werden kann. Dies erleichtert die Handhabung der Transportsicherung, da der Bolzen nicht ohne weiteres von der Hülse verloren gehen kann. Bei der eingangs beschriebenen Transportsicherung gemäß der WO 2006/117253 A1 ist diese an sich wünschenswerte Vereinigung des Bolzens mit der Distanzhülse nicht möglich. Zur Installierung der Transportsicherung wird zunächst die Distanzhülse ohne den Bolzen in das Gehäuse eingeführt und so verschoben, dass ihre Bohrung mit einer entsprechenden Bohrung des schwingenden Systems fluchtet. Dabei fluchtet die Bohrung in der Distanzhülse auch mit einer runden Ausnehmung im Gehäuse neben der Einführöffnung, so dass anschließend der Bolzen durch die Bohrung im Gehäuse und die Bohrung in der Distanzhülse zur Bohrung im schwingenden System geschoben und dort verschraubt werden kann. In dieser Konfiguration ist der Bolzen unverschieblich durch die Bohrung in dem Gehäuse gelagert, und die soeben geschilderte Beeinträchtigung der Transportsicherung dadurch vermieden.It is desirable to support the bolt in the spacer sleeve, so that the spacer sleeve can be formed with the bolt as a preassembled and durable unit and the bolt can be removed only with considerable effort from the spacer sleeve. This facilitates the handling of the transport lock, as the bolt is not without more can be lost from the sleeve. In the transport lock described above according to the WO 2006/117253 A1 this desirable combination of the bolt with the spacer sleeve is not possible. To install the transport lock the spacer sleeve is first inserted without the bolt in the housing and moved so that its bore is aligned with a corresponding bore of the oscillating system. The hole in the spacer sleeve is also aligned with a round recess in the housing next to the insertion, so that then the bolt can be pushed through the hole in the housing and the hole in the spacer sleeve for drilling in the oscillating system and screwed there. In this configuration, the bolt is immovably supported by the bore in the housing, and thus avoids the just described impairment of the transport lock.

Die nachfolgend zu beschreibende Erfindung geht unter anderem deshalb aus von der Aufgabe, einen Satz umfassend ein Hausgerät und eine Transportsicherung der eingangs definierten Gattung anzugeben, bei dem einerseits die Transportsicherung umfassend eine Vereinigung der Distanzhülse mit einem Bolzen mit Abstand zu einer Fixierungsposition, in welcher sie sich befinden muss, wenn ein Gehäuse und ein schwingendes System gegeneinander fixiert werden sollen, in das Gehäuse einführbar und dann in die Fixierungsposition verschiebbar ist und andererseits bei der Installation der Transportsicherung dennoch eine im Wesentlichen über den Bereich des Vollwinkels wirksame Abstützung des Bolzens am Gehäuse erzielbar ist. Dabei soll bevorzugt eine vormontierbare Einheit aus Distanzhülse und Bolzen gehandhabt werden und eine permanente Halterung des Bolzens in der Distanzhülse möglich sein, bei dem jedoch eine Beeinträchtigung der Wirkung der Transportsicherung durch eine nach Fixierung des Gehäuses gegen das schwingende System einwirkende Kraft weiterhin ausgeschlossen ist.The invention to be described below is based inter alia on the object of specifying a set comprising a domestic appliance and a transport lock of the type defined above, in which on the one hand the transport lock comprising a union of the spacer sleeve with a bolt at a distance to a fixing position in which they must be when a housing and a vibrating system to be fixed against each other, inserted into the housing and then slid into the fixation position and on the other hand during installation of the transport lock yet effective over the full angle effective support of the bolt on the housing achieved is. In this case, preferably a pre-assembled unit of spacer sleeve and bolt to be handled and a permanent support of the bolt in the spacer sleeve be possible in which, however, a deterioration of the effect of the transport lock by a force acting after fixing the housing against the oscillating system force is still excluded.

Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst von einem Satz umfassend ein Hausgerät und zumindest eine Transportsicherung, wie definiert im Patentanspruch 1. Bevorzugte und vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen dieses Satzes gehen aus den abhängigen Patentansprüchen hervor. Dementsprechend wird erfindungsgemäß angegeben ein Satz umfassend ein Hausgerät mit einem Gehäuse, welches eine Wand aufweist, und einem in dem Gehäuse aufgehängten schwingenden System, sowie zumindest eine Transportsicherung umfassend eine zwischen der Wand und dem schwingenden System platzierbare Distanzhülse sowie einen Bolzen mit einem Kopf und einem zylindrischen, ein Außengewinde tragenden Schraubteil, welches Schraubteil durch eine erste Ausnehmung in der Wand und eine erste Bohrung in der Distanzhülse in ein Innengewinde einer zweiten Bohrung in dem schwingenden System schraubbar ist, wobei die Distanzhülse durch eine zweite Ausnehmung in das Gehäuse einführbar und zwischen der Wand und dem schwingenden System verschiebbar ist, so dass die erste Ausnehmung und die erste Bohrung miteinander fluchten, wobei erfindungsgemäß der Bolzen zwischen dem Kopf und dem Schraubteil ein zylindrisches und gegenüber dem Schraubteil erweitertes -Passteil aufweist, welches in die erste Ausnehmung formschlüssig einpassbar ist, und dass die erste Ausnehmung und die zweite Ausnehmung durch einen Schlitz in der Wand, in welchem das Schraubteil, jedoch nicht das Passteil, verschieblich ist, miteinander verbunden sind.This object is achieved by a set comprising a domestic appliance and at least one transport lock, as defined in claim 1. Preferred and advantageous embodiments of this sentence will become apparent from the dependent claims. Accordingly, according to the invention a kit comprising a household appliance with a housing having a wall, and a suspended in the housing oscillating system, and at least one transport lock comprising a space between the wall and the oscillating system spacers and a bolt with a head and a cylindrical, an external thread bearing screw, which screw is screwed through a first recess in the wall and a first bore in the spacer sleeve in an internal thread of a second bore in the oscillating system, wherein the spacer sleeve inserted through a second recess in the housing and between the Wall and the oscillating system is displaceable, so that the first recess and the first bore are aligned with each other, according to the invention, the bolt between the head and the screw has a cylindrical and opposite the screw extended-Pas-part, which is positively fit into the first recess, and that the first recess and the second recess are interconnected by a slot in the wall in which the screw member, but not the fitting member, is slidable.

Gemäß der Erfindung gelingt es, zwei Anforderungen, die miteinander unvereinbar zu konkurrieren scheinen, gleichzeitig gerecht zu werden, indem einerseits ermöglicht wird, die Transportsicherung umfassend die Vereinigung der Distanzhülse mit dem Bolzen mit Abstand zu der Fixierungsposition, in welcher sie-sich befinden muss, wenn das Gehäuse und das schwingende System gegeneinander fixiert werden sollen, in das Gehäuse einzuführen und dann in die Fixierungsposition zu verschieben, wobei der Bolzen durch einen Schlitz in dem Gehäuse von der Ausnehmung, durch die er mit der Distanzhülse eingeführt wurde, weg bewegt wird, und bei der Installation der Transportsicherung doch eine im wesentlichen über den Bereich des Vollwinkels wirksame Abstützung des Bolzens am Gehäuse zu erzielen. Dazu erhält der Bolzen zwischen dem Kopf und dem Schraubteil ein gegenüber dem Schraubteil erweitertes, von dem Kopf des Bolzens aber deutlich überragtes Passteil. Zwischen der ersten Ausnehmung, welche der Bolzen beim Fixieren der Transportsicherung durchdringt, und der zweiten Ausnehmung, durch die er eingeführt wird, wird ein Schlitz im Gehäuse vorgesehen, durch welchen sich das Schraubteil des Bolzens, jedoch nicht das Passteil, beim seitlichen Verschieben der Transportsicherung bewegen kann. Nach der Fixierung der Transportsicherung ist der Bolzen dort, wo der Passbereich in den Schlitz übergeht, zwar nicht durch Material der Wand gestützt, jedoch erhält er die erforderliche Stütze in Richtung des Schlitzes durch die Kanten der Wand am Übergang zwischen der ersten Ausnehmung und dem Schlitz. Dementsprechend ist der Bolzen nach seiner Fixierung vollumfänglich gestützt, und dementsprechend ist auch beim Auftreten einer hohen Kraft beim Transport des Hausgeräts mit der Transportsicherung ein Schutz vor unerwünschtem Verschieben der Transportsicherung gegeben.According to the invention, it is possible to satisfy two requirements which seem to be incompatible with each other at the same time by, on the one hand, making possible the transport lock comprising the union of the spacer sleeve with the bolt at a distance from the fixing position in which it must be located; if the housing and the oscillating system are to be fixed against each other, insert into the housing and then move into the fixing position, wherein the bolt is moved away through a slot in the housing from the recess through which it was introduced with the spacer sleeve, and during the installation of the transport lock yet to achieve an effective substantially over the range of full angle support of the bolt on the housing. For this purpose, the bolt between the head and the screw part is extended with respect to the screw part extended, but clearly surmounted by the head of the bolt fitting part. Between the first recess, which penetrates the bolt when fixing the transport lock, and the second recess through which it is inserted, a slot is provided in the housing, through which the screw of the bolt, but not the fitting part, when moving laterally the transport lock can move. After fixation of the transport lock, the bolt is not supported by material of the wall where the fitting portion passes into the slot, but receives the necessary support in the direction of the slot through the edges of the wall at the transition between the first recess and the slot , Accordingly, the bolt is fully supported after its fixation, and accordingly, even with the occurrence of a high force during transport of the domestic appliance with the transport protection protection against unwanted displacement of the transport lock is given.

Die Distanzhülse des Satzes ist vorzugsweise etwa zylindrisch, besonders vorzugsweise etwa kreiszylindrisch.The spacer sleeve of the set is preferably approximately cylindrical, particularly preferably approximately circular cylindrical.

Ebenfalls bevorzugt ist es, dass die Distanzhülse eine Klemmeinrichtung zum Einklemmen des Bolzens aufweist. Auf diese Weise können die Distanzhülse und der Bolzen dauerhaft miteinander vereinigt und insbesondere zur Aufbewahrung ohne Lösen ihrer Verbindung abgelegt werden.It is also preferred that the spacer sleeve has a clamping device for clamping the bolt. In this way, the spacer sleeve and the bolt can be permanently combined with each other and stored in particular for storage without loosening their connection.

Besonders bevorzugt ist es, dass die Distanzhülse über eine durch den zweiten Bereich führbare Brücke mit einer zwischen den Kopf und die Wand klemmbaren Stützplatte verbunden ist, welche Stützplatte eine mit der ersten Bohrung koaxiale dritte Bohrung aufweist. Beim Installieren der Transportsicherung verbleibt diese Stützplatte außerhalb des Gehäuses; sie zeigt die Position der Distanzhülse an und kann auch dazu dienen, die Distanzhülse, die sich im Innern des Gehäuses befindet und für den Anwender der Transportsicherung deshalb nicht sichtbar ist, zu kontaktieren und zu bewegen. Eine weiter bevorzugte Ausgestaltung besteht darin, dass an die Stützplatte eine bogenförmige Halterung angeformt ist. Eine-solche-Halterung kann mit Vorteil bei der Handhabung der Transportsicherung benutzt werden; sie kann bei einem Hausgerät der Wasserführenden Gattung, insbesondere bei einer Waschmaschine, einem Waschtrockner oder einer Spülmaschine, auch dazu dienen, einen Schlauch für Frisch- oder Abwasser, ein Kabel oder dergleichen, temporär oder ständig festzulegen.It is particularly preferred that the spacer sleeve is connected via a bridge which can be guided through the second region with a support plate which can be clamped between the head and the wall, which support plate has a third bore coaxial with the first bore. When installing the transport lock this support plate remains outside of the housing; it indicates the position of the spacer sleeve and can also serve to contact and move the spacer sleeve, which is located inside the housing and therefore not visible to the user of the transport lock. A further preferred embodiment is that on the support plate an arcuate support is formed. Such a holder can be used with advantage in handling the transport lock; it can also serve to temporarily or permanently fix a hose for fresh or wastewater, a cable or the like in a home appliance of the water-bearing type, in particular in a washing machine, a washer-dryer or a dishwasher.

Außerdem bevorzugt ist ein Satz, in welchem die Distanzhülse eine fachwerkartige Konstruktion ist. Eine solche fachwerkartige Konstruktion ist gegenüber einer Ausführung aus Vollmaterial leichter und damit kostengünstiger, wobei hinsichtlich der Festigkeitseigenschaften keinerlei Kompromiss besteht. Als Material für die Distanzhülse kommt zunächst jedes Material in Frage, das zur Verwendung für einen Befestigungszweck in einem Hausgerät üblich ist. Besonders bevorzugt ist in diesem Sinne ein mit Talkum gefülltes Polypropylen; statt des Polypropylen sind auch Polyamid, Polystyrol und ABS denkbar. Von Interesse ist auch Hartgummi, aufgrund der besonders ausgeprägten Gummielastizität des Materials.Also preferred is a set in which the spacer sleeve is a truss-like construction. Such a truss-like construction is lighter and thus more cost-effective than an embodiment made of solid material, with no compromise in terms of strength properties. As a material for the spacer initially comes any material that is customary for use for a fastening purpose in a domestic appliance. Particularly preferred in this sense is a talc-filled polypropylene; Instead of the polypropylene, polyamide, polystyrene and ABS are also conceivable. Of interest is also hard rubber, due to the particularly pronounced rubber elasticity of the material.

Weiter bevorzugt ist ein Satz, bei dem der Bolzen eine zwischen dem Kopf und dem Passteil angeformte kreisförmige Unterlegscheibe aufweist; ein solcher Bolzen ist einfach, sicher und problemlos handhabbar, und erübrigt den Einsatz einer separaten Unterlegscheibe. Die angeformte Unterlegscheibe weist vorzugsweise einen Durchmesser auf, welcher etwa ein Dreifaches eines Durchmessers des Schraubteils beträgt.Further preferred is a set in which the bolt has a circular washer formed between the head and the fitting; such a bolt is simple, safe and easy to handle, and eliminates the need for a separate washer. The molded washer preferably has a Diameter, which is about three times a diameter of the screw.

Eine bevorzugte Bemaßung des-Passteils-sieht vor, dass dieses einen Durchmesser aufweist, welcher etwa einem Doppelten eines Durchmessers des Schraubteils entspricht. Auf diese Weise wird in der ersten Ausnehmung eine zweckmäßige Haltewirkung erreicht.A preferred dimension of the fitting part-provides that it has a diameter which corresponds approximately to twice a diameter of the screw. In this way, a suitable holding effect is achieved in the first recess.

Eine bevorzugte Bemaßung des Schraubteils sieht vor, dass dieses einen Durchmesser zwischen 4 mm und 10 mm, insbesondere etwa 6 mm, aufweist. Dabei wird weiter bevorzugt, dass das Passteil einen Durchmesser aufweist, welcher zumindest 2 mm größer ist als der Durchmesser des Schraubteils. So wird bei einer günstige Geometrie des-Bolzens-und der Ausnehmungen in der Wand eine-insbesondere an einem Hausgerät in Form einer Waschmaschine oder eines Waschtrockners ausreichende Wirksamkeit der Transportsicherung erzielt.A preferred dimension of the screw provides that this has a diameter between 4 mm and 10 mm, in particular about 6 mm. It is further preferred that the fitting part has a diameter which is at least 2 mm larger than the diameter of the screw. Thus, with a favorable geometry of the bolt and the recesses in the wall, a sufficient effectiveness of the transport lock is achieved, in particular on a household appliance in the form of a washing machine or a washer dryer.

Um die Wirksamkeit der Transportsicherung weiter zu verbessern ist es bevorzugt, dass die Wand eine die erste Ausnehmung umringende Verstärkung, insbesondere in Form eines durch Durchsetzfügen oder Punktschweißen aufgebrachten Verstärkungsbleches, aufweist.In order to further improve the effectiveness of the transport lock, it is preferred that the wall has a reinforcement surrounding the first recess, in particular in the form of a reinforcement sheet applied by clinching or spot welding.

In diesem Zusammenhang sei festgehalten, dass die Erfindung nicht notwendigerweise erfordert, dass die Wand ein integraler Bestandteil des Gehäuses sei. Grundsätzlich kann die Wand auch zu einer Traverse gehören, welche zum Zwecke der Anbringung der Transportsicherung auf das Gehäuse aufgesetzt wird. Bevorzugt ist allerdings die Anbringung der Transportsicherung direkt an einer Wand, die ein integraler Bestandteil des Gehäuses ist.In this connection, it should be noted that the invention does not necessarily require that the wall be an integral part of the housing. In principle, the wall can also belong to a cross member, which is placed on the housing for the purpose of attaching the transport lock. Preferably, however, the attachment of the transport lock is directly on a wall, which is an integral part of the housing.

Wenn die Transportsicherung des Satzes in Wirkung gesetzt ist, ist die Distanzhülse zwischen die Wand und das schwingende System eingesetzt, wobei das Passteil die erste Ausnehmung sowie das Schraubteil die erste Bohrung durchdringt und in der zweiten Bohrung verschraubt ist, wobei der Bolzen das Gehäuse und das schwingende System über die Distanzhülse gegeneinander verspannt.When the transport lock of the set is in effect, the spacer sleeve between the wall and the oscillating system is inserted, wherein the fitting part of the first recess and the screw member penetrates the first bore and is screwed into the second bore, wherein the bolt, the housing and the oscillating system braced against each other via the spacer sleeve.

Bevorzugt ist auch ein Satz, in welchem dem einen Gehäuse eine Mehrzahl von Transportsicherungen, besonders vorzugsweise eine Mehrzahl von vier Transportsicherungen, zugeordnet ist.Also preferred is a set in which one housing is assigned a plurality of transport securing devices, particularly preferably a plurality of four transport securing devices.
