JP 2000-237491 A (FIGS. 12 and 13)

上記特許文献１で示される従来の洗濯機では、略三角形の吊り板の面と垂直方向に吊り板を外力に対向して補強するための絞りが１段しか設けられていないため、吊り棒挿入孔を中心として吊り板を板面と左右対称に開く方向の力および板面と垂直な上下に捻る方向の力に対して弱く、破壊されることがあるという問題があった。   In the conventional washing machine shown in the above-mentioned patent document 1, since only one stage of the diaphragm for reinforcing the suspension plate against the external force is provided in the direction perpendicular to the surface of the substantially triangular suspension plate, the suspension rod is inserted. There is a problem that the suspension plate is weak against the force in the direction of opening the suspension plate symmetrically with the plate surface around the hole and the force in the direction of twisting up and down perpendicular to the plate surface.

また、吊り板をネジで外箱に設けられたフランジに取り付ける際、フランジのネジ取付け孔と吊り板のネジ取付け孔とを合わせなくてはならず、作業が煩雑であった。   Moreover, when attaching a suspension board to the flange provided in the outer box with a screw, the screw attachment hole of the flange and the screw attachment hole of the suspension board must be matched, and the work is complicated.

本発明は上記の課題を解決するために為されたものであり、主たる目的は、吊り板を板面と左右対称に開く方向の力および板面と垂直な上下に捻る方向の力に対する強度をより強化させた吊り板を提供することにある。   The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems. The main purpose of the present invention is to increase the strength against the force in the direction of opening the suspension plate symmetrically with the plate surface and the force in the direction of twisting up and down perpendicular to the plate surface. The object is to provide a more reinforced suspension board.

本発明は、外箱と、外箱に収容される水槽と、外箱に設けられ、水槽を吊り下げる吊り下げ手段と、を備え、吊り下げ手段は、水槽を支持する吊り棒と、吊り棒を吊り下げ保持する吊り板と、吊り板に対応して設けられ、一方の辺が前記外箱上部の少なくとも２隅に水平に設けられ、内側に向いた略湾曲状の開口部を有するフランジと、を備え、吊り板は、板面に垂直方向に一方の面が凸部で他方の面が凹部となる絞り形状を複数段有することを特徴とする。   The present invention comprises an outer box, a water tank accommodated in the outer box, and a suspension means provided on the outer box for suspending the water tank, the suspension means supporting the water tank, and a suspension bar A suspension plate that suspends and holds the flange, a flange that is provided corresponding to the suspension plate, and that has one side that is horizontally provided at at least two corners of the upper portion of the outer box and that has a substantially curved opening facing inward. The suspension plate has a plurality of aperture shapes in which one surface is a convex portion and the other surface is a concave portion in a direction perpendicular to the plate surface.

吊り板は、板面に垂直方向に一方の面が凸部で他方の面が凹部となる絞り形状を複数段有するので、吊り板を板面と左右対称に開く方向の力および板面と垂直な上下に捻る方向の力に対する強度がその分増加する。   The suspension plate has a plurality of aperture shapes in which one surface is a convex portion and the other surface is a concave portion in a direction perpendicular to the plate surface, so that the force in the direction to open the suspension plate symmetrically with the plate surface and the plate surface are perpendicular to each other. The strength against the force in the direction of twisting up and down increases accordingly.

また、少なくとも１段の絞り形状の側面を上記フランジの他方の辺に当接させるように構成したので、吊り板の側面をフランジの辺に当接させるだけで自動的に吊り板のネジ孔とフランジのネジ孔の位置合わせが行われるので、ネジ取付け作業が極めて容易になる。   In addition, since at least one stage of the diaphragm-shaped side surface is in contact with the other side of the flange, the screw hole of the suspension plate is automatically formed by simply bringing the side surface of the suspension plate into contact with the side of the flange. Since the positioning of the screw holes of the flange is performed, the screw mounting operation becomes extremely easy.

実施の形態１．
以下、図面について本発明の実施形態を詳細に説明する。図１は本発明の洗濯機の実施形態１を示す側面側の説明図、図２は同上平面側の説明図、図３は図２における吊り板の外観図、図４はその裏面を示す外観図、図５は吊り板を外箱に取り付けた状態を示す外観図、図６はその拡大図、図７はさらに取付状況を分かりやすく示した説明図である。
洗濯機は外箱１内の４隅または２隅（この場合には、水槽の一方の辺をヒンジなどにより水槽が傾斜自在に固定しておく）から吊り下げ手段６によって水槽３を吊り下げ、図示は省略するが底部に攪拌翼を配設した洗濯兼脱水槽を上記水槽内に配設し、洗濯兼脱水槽の下方にギヤ、クラッチなどの機構を介してモータ４を配設している。また、上記吊り下げ手段６として、下部に防振部分７を組み込んだ吊り棒５の上部に雄ネジ８を有する外周ネジ管を吊り棒５本体に披嵌して形成し、この雄ネジ８の部分を駆動部９で回転する雌ネジ回転体１０にネジ込んで吊り下げ長さを自動調整可能にしている。 Embodiment 1 FIG.
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an explanatory view of a side surface showing Embodiment 1 of the washing machine of the present invention, FIG. 2 is an explanatory view of the same plane side, FIG. 3 is an external view of a suspension plate in FIG. FIG. 5 and FIG. 5 are external views showing a state in which the suspension plate is attached to the outer box, FIG. 6 is an enlarged view thereof, and FIG. 7 is an explanatory view showing the attachment state in an easy-to-understand manner.
The washing machine suspends the aquarium 3 by the suspending means 6 from the four corners or the two corners in the outer box 1 (in this case, the one of the aquarium is fixed by a hinge or the like so as to be inclined), Although not shown, a washing and dewatering tub having a stirring blade at the bottom is disposed in the water tub, and a motor 4 is disposed below the washing and dewatering tub via a mechanism such as a gear and a clutch. . Further, as the suspension means 6, an outer peripheral screw tube having a male screw 8 on the upper portion of the suspension rod 5 incorporating the vibration-proof portion 7 at the lower portion is formed by being fitted to the suspension rod 5 body. The part is screwed into a female screw rotating body 10 that is rotated by a drive unit 9 so that the suspension length can be automatically adjusted.

上記吊り下げ手段６の一部を構成する吊り板１１として、吊り板１１には、図３に示すように、板面に垂直方向に一方の面が凸部で他方の面が凹部となる絞り形状Ａ ３１と絞り形状Ｂ ３２を形成して、吊り板を板面と左右対称に開く方向の力および板面と垂直な上下に捻る方向の力に対する強度を強化している。また、図３に示すように、略方形状の板に吊り棒５を挿通するための挿通孔３３を形成し、さらに吊り板の一端からこの挿通孔３３に連通する吊り棒用挿入溝３４を形成した。また、洗濯機の運転中にこの吊り板１１が不要な回転をしないように図示しないストッパを挿通するストッパ挿通孔３５を形成している。さらに、図４に示すように吊り棒の挿通孔には絞り形状Ｃ ４１を形成して、吊り板１１を板面と左右対称に開く方向の力に対する強度を強化している。   As the suspension plate 11 constituting a part of the suspension means 6, the suspension plate 11 has a diaphragm in which one surface is a convex portion and the other surface is a concave portion in a direction perpendicular to the plate surface, as shown in FIG. The shape A 31 and the diaphragm shape B 32 are formed to enhance the strength against the force in the direction of opening the suspension plate symmetrically with the plate surface and the direction of twisting up and down perpendicular to the plate surface. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, an insertion hole 33 for inserting the suspension bar 5 is formed in a substantially rectangular plate, and a suspension bar insertion groove 34 communicating with the insertion hole 33 from one end of the suspension plate is formed. Formed. Further, a stopper insertion hole 35 through which a stopper (not shown) is inserted is formed so that the suspension plate 11 does not rotate unnecessarily during operation of the washing machine. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, a drawing shape C 41 is formed in the insertion hole of the suspension rod to strengthen the strength against the force in the direction of opening the suspension plate 11 symmetrically with the plate surface.

また、図５〜図７に示すように、吊り板１１を外箱１に取り付ける際に、吊り板１１の絞り形状Ｂ ３２の側面と外箱１に設けられたフランジ６１の辺とが当接させると、吊り板１１のネジ孔とフランジ６１のネジ孔がすべて合うように構成した。これにより、吊り板１１を外箱１に取り付ける際の位置合わせが不要になり、作業の効率化を大幅に図ることができる。   As shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, when the suspension plate 11 is attached to the outer box 1, the side surface of the drawing shape B 32 of the suspension plate 11 and the side of the flange 61 provided in the outer case 1 come into contact with each other. As a result, the screw holes of the suspension plate 11 and the screw holes of the flange 61 are all matched. Thereby, the position alignment at the time of attaching the suspension board 11 to the outer case 1 becomes unnecessary, and the work efficiency can be greatly improved.

実施の形態２．
図８はこの発明の実施の形態２における吊り板の取付け状況を示す外観図である。
図８において、実施の形態１と同じ部分についての説明を省略し、異なる部分について説明する。実施の形態１では、吊り棒挿通孔３３と連通する吊り棒挿通溝３４は開口側に向いて設けられていたが、この実施の形態２では、開口側でなく、反対側に向いて設けられている。
これにより、吊り棒挿通溝３４はフランジ６１の辺に当接するので板面に平行な左右方向に開く力に対しては、強力な対抗力を有し、左右に閉じる方向に対しては、吊り棒挿通溝３４はフランジにより保護されるため、十分な対抗力を持つ。従って、実施の形態１に比べて板面方向の開く力及び閉じる力に対して格段に強力な対抗力を有する。
なお、吊り棒５と吊り板１１の取付け方は、まず、吊り棒５を吊り板１１の吊り棒挿通溝３４を介して吊り棒挿通孔３３に挿通し、その後、吊り板１１を、吊り棒挿通溝を外箱に向いた状態でフランジ６１の辺に当接するように取り付ける。
これにより、実施の形態１の効果に加え、吊り板を板面と左右対称に開く方向の力および板面と垂直な上下に捻る方向の力に対する強度がより強化する。 Embodiment 2. FIG.
FIG. 8 is an external view showing how the suspension plate is attached in the second embodiment of the present invention.
In FIG. 8, the description of the same part as that of the first embodiment is omitted, and a different part will be described. In Embodiment 1, the suspension rod insertion groove 34 communicating with the suspension rod insertion hole 33 is provided toward the opening side. However, in Embodiment 2, it is provided not toward the opening side but toward the opposite side. ing.
As a result, the suspension rod insertion groove 34 abuts against the side of the flange 61, so that it has a strong resistance to the force that opens in the left-right direction parallel to the plate surface, and the suspension rod insertion groove 34 is suspended in the direction that is closed to the left and right Since the rod insertion groove 34 is protected by the flange, it has sufficient resistance. Therefore, compared with Embodiment 1, it has a much stronger opposing force with respect to the force of opening and closing in the plate surface direction.
The suspension rod 5 and the suspension plate 11 are attached by first inserting the suspension rod 5 into the suspension rod insertion hole 33 through the suspension rod insertion groove 34 of the suspension plate 11, and then attaching the suspension plate 11 to the suspension rod. The insertion groove is attached so as to contact the side of the flange 61 in a state of facing the outer box.
Thereby, in addition to the effects of the first embodiment, the strength against the force in the direction of opening the suspension plate symmetrically with the plate surface and the force in the direction of twisting up and down perpendicular to the plate surface is further strengthened.
