Abstract

A leveling device for washers is disclosed for adjusting the horizontal level and preventing noise. The device has a leveling device (4) attached on the exterior frame (1) by the opening of a choke valve (44) fitted to an oil pipe (42) of the leveling device (4). When the floor is sloped, the oil reversely flows into the oil reservoir (41) and pushes a piston (45) in a cylinder (43) through the oil pipe (42). The base plate (46) fitted on the piston contacts the floor and elevates the exterior frame (1) of the washing machine as the piston actuates downwardly. Then the oil pressure of the cylinder (43) from the oil reservoir (41) equalizes to regulate the level. When the leveling is finished, the oil pipe (42) is shut off by closing the choke valve (44) to prevent oil reversing and pressure change.

본 발명은 세탁기의 수평조절 장치에 관한 것으로, 특히 바닥면이 기울어진 곳에 세탁기 설치시, 세탁기의 수평을 간편하면서도 용이하게 그리고 안정되게 조절시켜 줄 수 있도록 한 세탁기의 수평조절 장치에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a leveling device for a washing machine, and more particularly, to a leveling device for a washing machine to adjust the level of the washing machine simply, easily, and stably, when the washing machine is installed in an inclined bottom surface.

일반적으로 세탁기는 가정에서 배수가 잘되는 곳에 설치하게 되는데, 이때 배수가 잘되는 곳은 바닥면이 경사져 있어 세탁기 설치시 기울어짐이 발생되게 된다.In general, the washing machine is installed in a well-drained place in the home, the well-drained place is inclined when the washing machine is installed because the bottom surface is inclined.

그러므로 상기 세탁기의 하부에는 상기 경사진 바닥면에 수평되게 설치될 수 있도록 전방 좌우측에 높, 낮이 조절이 가능한 수평조절 다리를 장착하게 된다.Therefore, the lower part of the washing machine is equipped with a leveling leg which is adjustable in height, height on the front left and right so as to be installed horizontally on the inclined bottom surface.

왜냐하면 상기 세탁기의 수평이 맞지 않은 상태에서 세탁을 하게 되면 회전력에 의한 원심력에 의하여 세탁기에 진동 및 소음이 발생될 뿐만 아니라, 상기 진동 및 소음에 의하여 세탁기의 손상은 물론 고장을 유발시키게 되기 때문이다.This is because when washing the washing machine in an unbalanced state, not only vibration and noise are generated in the washing machine due to the centrifugal force due to the rotational force, but also the damage and the failure of the washing machine are caused by the vibration and noise.

따라서 세탁기 설치시 수평이 유지되도록 상기 수평조절다리로 조절하게 되는데, 이때 상기 수평조절 다리를 조절하기 위하여서는 기울어진 세탁기의 일측 또는 타측을 일일이 들어 올린 상태에서 수평조절 다리를 돌리면서 전, 후, 좌, 우 수평을 맞추도록 되어 있어, 수평을 조절하는데 번거로움이 있을 뿐만 아니라, 최근들어 대용량의 세탁기가 보급됨에 따라 정확하고 안정되게 수평을 조절하는데 상당히 힘이 들게 되는 문제점을 가지게 되었다.Therefore, when the washing machine is installed, the horizontal adjustment leg is adjusted to be maintained. At this time, in order to adjust the leveling leg, one or the other side of the tilted washing machine is lifted one by one while turning the horizontal adjusting leg before and after, Since it is designed to level the left and right, it is not only troublesome to adjust the level, but also has a problem that it is very difficult to adjust the level accurately and stably as a large-capacity washing machine is recently introduced.

따라서 본 발명의 목적은 바닥면이 기울어진 곳에 세탁기를 설치시 세탁기를 설치시 세탁기가 바닥면의 기울어진 경사각에 따라 임의로 수평이 조절될 수 있도록 하여 간편하면서도 용이하고 안정되게 조절할 수 있는 수평조절 장치를 제공하고자 하는데 있다.Therefore, an object of the present invention is a horizontal adjustment device that can be adjusted simply, easily and stably by allowing the washing machine to be arbitrarily leveled according to the inclined angle of the floor when the washing machine is installed when the washing machine is installed on the inclined bottom surface. It is intended to provide.

상기의 목적을 실현하기 위하여 본 발명은 세탁기 외체하부 전방 양측 모서리에 높, 낮이를 임의로 조절 가능한 수평조절다리를 구성하여서 된 세탁기의 수평조절 장치에 있어서, 상기 세탁기의 외체 하부 내측에 유체가 담겨진 유압탱크와, 이 유압탱크의 측면상에 유체가 사방으로 흐르도록 연통되어지는 각각의 공급관과, 이 공급관의 선단에 유체의 흐름에 의한 압력으로 상하 왕복운동하는 피스톤이 구비된 실린더와, 상기 공급관 상에 상기 실린더의 유체 흐름을 공급 및 차단하는 쵸크밸브가 장착되어진 수평조절장치를 구성한 것을 특징으로 한다.In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is a horizontal adjustment device of the washing machine consisting of a horizontal adjustment leg that can be arbitrarily adjusted to the height, the height of the lower front side of the outer body of the washing machine, the fluid is contained inside the lower body of the washing machine A cylinder having a hydraulic tank, respective supply pipes in communication with the fluid on all sides of the hydraulic tank, a piston at the front end of the supply pipe, and a piston for vertically reciprocating with the pressure of the fluid flow; Characterized in that the horizontal adjustment device is mounted on the choke valve for supplying and blocking the fluid flow of the cylinder on the top.

And a choke valve 44 for supplying and blocking the fluid flow of the cylinder 43 on the supply pipe 42. On the lower end of the piston 45, the horizontal adjusting device 4 equipped with the supporting plate 46 supporting the bottom surface is mounted.

상기와 같이 구성된 본 발명의 작용효과를 설명하면 다음과 같다.Referring to the effects of the present invention configured as described above are as follows.

먼저 세탁기의 외체(1)의 하부 내측 저면에 유압탱크(41)를 장착하되, 상기 외체(1)의 모서리부에 받침판(46)이 장착된 피스톤(45)이 하방으로 돌출되게 장착함과 아울러 상기 유압탱크(41)의 유체흐름을 조절하는 쵸크밸브(44)를 상기 외체(1)의 외측면으로 돌출되게 장착한다.First, the hydraulic tank 41 is mounted on the lower inner bottom of the outer body 1 of the washing machine, and the piston 45 having the support plate 46 mounted on the corner of the outer body 1 protrudes downwards. The choke valve 44 for controlling the fluid flow of the hydraulic tank 41 is mounted to protrude to the outer surface of the outer body (1).

이와 같이 상기 세탁기의 외체(1)의 수평조절장치(4)를 장착한 상태에서, 세탁기를 사용하고자 하는 장소에 설치할 때, 상기 수평조절장치(4)의 공급관(42)에 장착된 쵸크밸브(44)를 열어 놓은 상태에서 설치를 하게 되는데, 이때 설치장소의 바닥면이 경사지게 되어 있는 경우, 상기 세탁기는 기울어진채 놓여지게 되고, 따라서 상기 세탁기의 누름 압력이 높은 쪽 즉 기울어짐이 높은 쪽에 압력이 높아 실린더(43)에 끼워져 있는 피스톤(45)이 상기 실린더(43)의 내부로 유입되게 되어, 상기 실린더(43)에 있는 유체는 상기 피스톤(45)의 가압에 의하여 공급관(42)를 통해서 상기 유압탱크(41)로 역류하게 되고, 이 유압탱크(41)로 역류된 유체는 기울어짐이 발생된 공급관(42)으로 통해서 실린더(43)로 유입되어 실린더(43)에 삽입된 피스톤(45)을 밀어주게 된다.As described above, when the washing machine is installed at a place where the washing machine is to be used in the state in which the horizontal adjusting device 4 of the outer body 1 of the washing machine is mounted, the choke valve attached to the supply pipe 42 of the horizontal adjusting device 4 ( 44) is installed in the open state, when the bottom surface of the installation place is inclined, the washing machine is placed inclined, so that the pressure on the higher pressing pressure of the washing machine, that is, the higher tilting The piston 45 inserted into the cylinder 43 is introduced into the cylinder 43 so that the fluid in the cylinder 43 passes through the supply pipe 42 by the pressure of the piston 45. The hydraulic fluid flows back into the hydraulic tank 41, and the fluid flowing back into the hydraulic tank 41 flows into the cylinder 43 through the supply pipe 42 in which the tilt occurs and is inserted into the cylinder 43. Will push.

이때 상기 피스톤(45)의 하단에 장착된 받침판(46)은 지면과 접하고 있는 상태이어서 상기 피스톤(45)이 하방으로 작용할 때 반대로 반작용이 작용하면서 외체(1)를 상승시키게 되고, 이어서 상기 유압탱크(41)로부터 공급관(42)을 통해서 실린더(43)에 작용하는 유압이 동일하게 되면 상기 세탁기의 수평이 맞추어지게 되는 것이다.At this time, the support plate 46 mounted on the lower end of the piston 45 is in contact with the ground, so that when the piston 45 acts downward, the reaction body acts on the contrary to raise the outer body 1, and then the hydraulic tank. When the hydraulic pressure acting on the cylinder 43 through the supply pipe 42 from 41 is equal, the washing machine is leveled.

이와 같이 상기 세탁기의 수평이 맞추어지게 되면 사용자는 상기 외체(1)로부터 돌출된 쵸크밸브(44)를 조작하여 상기 실린더(43)에 가압되는 유체가 공급관(42)을 통해서 유압탱크(41)로 역류방지 및 상기 실린더(43) 내의 가압변동을 방지하기 위하여 공급관(42)을 막아 줌으로써, 상기 세탁기는 수평이 조절된 상태를 유지하게 되는 것이다.When the washing machine is leveled as described above, the user operates the choke valve 44 protruding from the outer body 1 so that the fluid pressurized to the cylinder 43 is supplied to the hydraulic tank 41 through the supply pipe 42. By blocking the supply pipe 42 in order to prevent backflow and pressure fluctuations in the cylinder 43, the washing machine is to maintain a horizontally adjusted state.

이상에서 설명한 바와 같이 본 발명은 바닥면이 기울어진 곳에 세탁기를 설치시 세탁기가 바닥면의 기울어진 경사각에 따라 유체의 흐름에 의하여 작용 및 반작용으로 압력이 작용하면서 수평이 맞추어지도록 함으로써, 세탁기의 수평조절을 간편하면서도 용이하게 할 수 있고, 또한 수평이 맞추어지게 되면 유체의 흐름을 차단시켜 유압변동이 발생되지 않도록 함으로써, 지속적이고 안정된 수평을 유지할 수 있는 효과를 제공하게 되는 것이다.As described above, according to the present invention, when the washing machine is installed at an inclined bottom surface, the washing machine is leveled while the pressure is acted by the flow and action of the fluid according to the inclined angle of the bottom surface, thereby leveling the washing machine. The adjustment can be made simple and easy, and when the level is leveled, the flow of the fluid is blocked so that no hydraulic fluctuations occur, thereby providing a continuous and stable level.
