Definitions
- the present invention relates to a household appliance comprising a knob that is safely mounted onto the panel.
- Household appliances for example cooking devices, dishwashers and in particular washers/dryers, comprise a panel, a control unit and one or more than one knob that enable the functions thereof to be monitored and controlled by the user.
- the knobs are directly attached to the shafts that are mechanically fastened to the switches on the control unit behind the panel by means of the housings on the panel or by means of an intermediate piece from the front of the panel.
- the shafts that are connected to the knobs also move and the functions at predetermined positions depending on the user preferences, for example functions like in which program the laundries should be washed, at which rpm the spin-drying should be performed or at which temperature the wash water should be used, are enabled to be selected.
- the knobs are mounted on the shaft that is connected to the control unit behind the panel from the front side of the panel for ease of production.
- the knob is mounted on the panel by means of clawed structures, some tolerances are needed to be taken into consideration in order that the shaft and the knob can be easily borne to each other. Therefore, a gap should be left around the clawed structures. While facilitating the rotation of the knob, these gaps weaken the resistance of the knob against exterior impacts and cause the knob to be operated in a loose manner. In particular this situation causes the user to have an adverse opinion that "the knob is about to fall off".
- a household appliance that comprises a knob mounted to the panel.
- a control knob is disclosed, that is fixed to the shaft in a safe manner.
- International Patent Application WO 2009/077330 A1 describes an operating panel for an electrical appliance that comprises a front plate, a rotary knob arranged on the front side of the front plate and a controller, connected to the rotary knob, arranged on a back side of the front plate.
- the rotary knob comprises a shaft engaging in a recess on the front side.
- the shaft has a collar projecting radially outwards.
- a pair of clipping tongues is arranged in the recess of which a root is fixed to the front plate and a free end makes contact with the collar.
- United States Patent Application US2008289940 discloses a knob which interacts with only one type of connection part that can exert forces in one direction only.
- UK Patent Application GB2157800 discloses a rotary control having a popout collar, wherein two different latches are provided for limiting the axial movement of said collar.
- the aim of the present invention is the realization of a household appliance comprising a knob that is easily mounted and safely fixed onto the panel.
- the household appliance realized in order to attain the aim of the present invention, explicated in the first claim and the respective claims thereof, comprises more than one first claw and second claw that are respectively disposed from the wall towards the center, with one applying a force on the knob from inside and the other applying a force on the knob from outside.
- the knob is enabled to be mounted to the panel and prevented from being easily detached.
- the first claws prevent the knob from being dislodged from the housing by applying a force against the tensile forces acting outwards from the panel.
- the second claws limit the movement of the knob by applying a force against the compressive forces acting inwards from the panel.
- the intermediate piece since the intermediate piece is squeezed between the first and second claws, the intermediate piece rotates 360 degrees on the said claws. While allowing the knob to be mounted by stretching towards the wall of the housing while the knob is being mounted into the housing, the first claws stretch towards the center of the housing while the knob is tried to be detached, thus preventing the knob from being dislodged from the housing and thus providing an agreement of shape.
- the household appliance (1) for example the laundry washer/dryer, comprises a panel (2) enabling the user to monitor and control the functions of the household appliance (1), a control unit (3) disposed behind the panel (2), a shaft (4) that is connected to the control unit (3) and that enables user preferences to be transmitted to the control unit (3), a knob (5) that actuates the shaft (4), an intermediate piece (7) that is disposed between the knob (5) and the shaft (4) and whereon the knob (5) is fixed, a housing (8) that is disposed on the panel (2) and wherein the knob (5) and the intermediate piece (7) are placed, and a first claw and a second claw (9 and 10)
- the knob (5) and the intermediate piece (7) are mounted to each other, the knob (5) and the intermediate piece (7) are seated into the housing (8).
- the intermediate piece (7) is fixed between the first claw (9) and second claw (10).
- the first claws (9) prevent the intermediate piece (7), hence the knob (5) from being detached from the housing (8) against the tensile forces acting outwards from the panel (2), the forces acting inwards from the panel (2) are met by the second claws (10), thus preventing the knob (5) from being damaged and dislodged from the housing (8).
- the knob (5) comprises a handle (6) that enables the user to hold and actuate the knob (5), at least one wall (12) and at least one barrier (13) that are oppositely disposed on the inner surface of the handle (6), and at least one recess (14) arranged between the wall (12) and the barrier (13).
- the knob (5) comprises at least one support (17) that is disposed on the inner surface of the handle (6) among the wall (12), the barrier (13) and the recess (14).
- the household appliance (1) comprises a guiding member (24) that is fitted over the shaft (4).
- the guiding member (24) is mounted freely on the shaft (3) situated on the control unit (3). While the control unit (3) is mounted on the panel (2), the guiding member (24) is fitted over the knob (5) and provides the connection between the knob (5) and the shaft (4).
- the intermediate piece (7) is preferably a cylindrical component and comprises a bearing (11) wherein the shaft (4) or the guiding member (24) mounted on the shaft (4) is supported, a flange (18) surrounding the bearing (11), at least two guides (15) disposed on the inner surface of the bearing (11), extending along the axis of the bearing (11), that prevent the intermediate piece (7) from moving relative to the shaft (4) and to the guiding member (24), and a protrusion (16) that is disposed on the flange (18) and that is seated into the recess (14).
- the flange (18) has preferably has a stepped structure.
- the intermediate piece (7) comprises two abutments (25) that are oppositely disposed on the outer surface of the flange (18), that surround the flange (18) and against one of which the first claw (9) bears and against the other of which the second claw (10) bears when the intermediate piece (7) is seated into the housing (8).
- the first claw (9) is almost L-shaped and comprises a long arm (20) that is fixed to the housing (8) and that extends so as to make an acute angle with the wall of the housing (8), a short arm (19) that is connected to the said long arm (20) so that an acute angle remains therebetween and that extends in a direction opposite to the long arm (20), and a bend (21) that connects the long arm (20) and the short arm (19) ( Figure 4 ).
- the second claw (10) is L-shaped and comprises a first arm (22) that extends from the wall of the housing (8) towards the center in the radial direction and a second arm (23) that extends perpendicularly to the first arm (22) ( Figure 3 ).
- the knob (5) is mounted to the panel (2) in the following manner.
- the intermediate piece (7) is inserted into the knob (5) and is moved until the protrusion (16) reaches the wall (12) at the inner surface of the handle (6).
- the protrusion (16) stretches and goes over the wall (12) and is seated into the recess (14) so as to bear against the barrier (13).
- the intermediate piece (7) can no longer move forward in the knob (5) and the intermediate piece (7) is fixed to the knob (5).
- the supports (17) serve for the function of centering between the knob (5) and the intermediate piece (7).
- the intermediate piece (7) and the knob (5) connected to each other are inserted into the housing (8) on the panel (2).
- the first abutment (25) that is not completely surrounded by the handle (6), that is disposed on the flange (18) of the intermediate piece (7) and that passes through the housing (8) stretches the first claws (9), which partially cover the housing (8), towards the wall of the housing (8) and passes through the housing (8).
- the short and long arms (19 and 20) of the first claw (9) easily stretch thanks to the acute angle therebetween.
- the intermediate piece (7) is squeezed between the first claw (9) and the second claw (10) in opposite directions.
