상기 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명에 의한 세탁기용 밸런서는, 세탁내조의상단 주연부에 장착되고, 내부에 유체가 들어가는 유체수납부를 구비하는 세탁기용 밸런서에 있어서; 상기 유체수납부의 상면에 성형되고, 내주면이 나사가공된 충진공과; 상기 충진공에 나사결합되어, 충진공을 개폐하는 밀폐 볼트를 포함하여 구성된다.In the washing machine balancer according to the present invention for achieving the above object, it is mounted on the upper periphery of the washing inner tub, the balancer for a washing machine having a fluid storage portion that the fluid enters; A filling hole formed on an upper surface of the fluid storage portion and having an inner peripheral surface thereof screwed; Screwed to the filling hole, it comprises a sealing bolt for opening and closing the filling hole.
그리고 밀폐 볼트의 헤드와, 충진공이 성형된 밸런서의 상면 사이에는, 신축성있는 링형상의 실링부재가 개재되어, 유체가 흘러나오는 것을 충분히 방지할 수 있도록 구성되어 있다.An elastic ring-shaped sealing member is interposed between the head of the hermetic bolt and the upper surface of the balancer in which the filling hole is formed so as to sufficiently prevent the fluid from flowing out.
이와 같은 본 발명에 의하면, 제품의 폐기시, 상기 밀폐볼트를 충진공에서 분리하는 것에 의하여, 밸런서 내부의 유체를 보다 쉽게 외부로 배출할 수 있게 되는 편리함이 기대된다.According to the present invention, when the product is discarded, by separating the sealing bolt from the filling hole, it is expected that the convenience that can easily discharge the fluid inside the balancer to the outside.
다음에는 도면에 도시한 실시예에 기초하면서 본 발명에 대하여 더욱 상세하게 살펴보기로 한다.Next, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings.
도 4에는 본 발명에 의한 밸런서의 내부 구성을 보이는 단면도이다. 도시한 바와 같이, 밸런서(10)의 내부에는 소정의 유체(예를 들면 소금물)가 수납될 수 있는 유체수납부(12)가 형성되어 있다. 상기 유체수납부(12)에, 유체가 일정 수준을 유지하면서 들어가 있는 것에 의하여, 밸런서(10)는 세탁내조의 고속회전시 균형을 잡을 수 있게 된다.4 is a cross-sectional view showing the internal configuration of the balancer according to the present invention. As shown in the figure, the fluid storage part 12 in which a predetermined fluid (for example, salt water) is accommodated is formed in the balancer 10. As the fluid enters the fluid storage unit 12 while maintaining a constant level, the balancer 10 can be balanced during the high speed rotation of the washing tank.
그리고 본 발명에 의하면 상기 유체수납부(12)의 상면에는, 내주연이 나사처리된 충진공(14)이 성형되어 있다. 따라서 상기 충진공(14)을 통하여, 밸런서(10)의 내부에 유체를 넣을 수 있게 된다. 그리고 상기 충진공(14)의 내주연 부분은나사형상을 가지고 있어서, 후술하는 바와 같은 밀폐 볼트(20)가 나사결합할 수 있도록 구성되어 있다.According to the present invention, the filling hole 14, the inner periphery of which is screwed, is formed on the upper surface of the fluid storage portion 12. Therefore, through the filling hole 14, the fluid can be put into the balancer 10. The inner circumferential portion of the filling hole 14 has a screw shape, and is configured to allow the sealing bolt 20 to be screwed together as described later.
그리고 상기 충진공(14)에는 밀폐 볼트(20)가 나사결합된다. 도시한 바와 같이, 밀폐 볼트(20)의 몸체부분(20a)의 외주연에는 나사가공되어 있어서, 상기 충진공(14)의 내측으로 나사결합할 수 있도록 구성되어 있다. 따라서 상기 밀폐볼트(20)의 몸체부분(20a)이 상기 충진공(14)에 나사결합하는 것에 의하여, 상기 충진공(14)이 밀폐될 수 있게 된다.And the filling hole 14 is sealed bolt 20 is screwed. As shown, the outer periphery of the body portion (20a) of the sealing bolt 20 is screwed, it is configured to be screwed into the filling hole (14). Therefore, the body part 20a of the sealing bolt 20 is screwed to the filling hole 14, the filling hole 14 can be sealed.
여기서 본 발명에 의한 밀폐볼트(20)는, 상기 밸런서와 동일하게 합성수지재로 사출 성형되는 볼트를 이용할 수 있다. 또는 일반적인 금속재로 만들어지는 볼트를 이용하는 것도 가능함은 물론이다.Here, the sealing bolt 20 according to the present invention may use a bolt injection-molded with a synthetic resin material in the same way as the balancer. Or it is also possible to use a bolt made of a general metal material.
상기 밀폐볼트(20)에 의한 충진공(14)의 밀폐시, 유체수납부(12) 내부에 들어있는 유체가 밸런서(10)의 외측으로 누수되는 것을 방지하기 위하여, 고무 등과 같은 신축성 재질로 만들어지는 실링부재(22)를 설치할 수 있다. 즉, 밀폐 볼트(20)의 헤드(20b)와, 상기 충진공(14)이 성형된 부분의 상면 사이에, O링 형상의 실링부재(22)를 개재하는 것에 의하여, 상기 충진공(14)의 밀폐는 더욱 확실하게 보장될 수 있을 것이다. 여기서 본 발명에 의한 실링부재(22)는, 누수방지가 가능한 범위 내에서, 다른 많은 변형이 가능함은 당연하다.When the filling hole 14 is closed by the sealing bolt 20, in order to prevent the fluid contained in the fluid storing part 12 from leaking to the outside of the balancer 10, it is made of an elastic material such as rubber. Losing the sealing member 22 can be installed. That is, the filling hole 14 is interposed between the head 20b of the hermetic bolt 20 and the upper surface of the portion where the filling hole 14 is formed, through an O-ring sealing member 22. The sealing of can be more surely guaranteed. It is a matter of course that the sealing member 22 according to the present invention is capable of many other modifications within a range capable of preventing leakage.
그리고 상기 밀폐 볼트(20)가 결합되는 밸런서(10)의 상면부분, 즉 충진공(14)이 성형되는 부분에는, 다소 오목한 형상의 오목부분(24)으로 성형하는 것에 의하여, 밀폐볼트(20)가 밸런서(10)의 상부로 많이 노출되는 것을 피할 수 있음과 동시에, 상기 실링부재(22)가 정확한 위치를 유지할 수 있게 된다.In addition, the sealing bolt 20 is formed by forming a concave portion 24 having a somewhat concave shape in the upper surface portion of the balancer 10 to which the sealing bolt 20 is coupled, that is, the portion in which the filling hole 14 is formed. While the exposure to the upper portion of the balancer 10 can be avoided at the same time, the sealing member 22 can maintain the correct position.
이상과 같이 구성되는 본 발명에 의하면, 밸런서(10)의 제작시 상기 충진공(14)을 통하여 유체수납부(12) 내부에 유체를 일정한 주입할 수 있을 것이다. 그리고 이렇게 하여 유체수납부(12) 내부에 일정량의 유체가 수납된 다음에는, 상기 밀폐볼트(20) 및 실링부재(22)를 이용하여 상기 충진공(14)을 완전하게 밀폐함으로써, 밸런서(10)로서 정상적인 동작이 가능하게 된다.According to the present invention configured as described above, it is possible to inject a constant fluid into the fluid receiving portion 12 through the filling hole 14 during the manufacture of the balancer (10). In this way, after a certain amount of fluid is stored in the fluid storage unit 12, the filling hole 14 is completely sealed using the sealing bolt 20 and the sealing member 22, thereby balancing the balancer 10. ), Normal operation is possible.
그리고 이러한 밸런서(10)를 구비하는 세탁기 자체의 폐기시에는, 상기 밀폐 볼트(20)를 충진공(14)에서 분리하는 것에 의하여, 밸런서의 내부에 있는 유체를 쉽게 외부로 배출시킬 수 있게 된다. 따라서 제품의 폐기시에도 보다 편리하게 유체를 배출시킬 수 있어서, 제품의 재활용성에서 편리한 잇점을 가질 수 있게 된다.When the washing machine itself having the balancer 10 is disposed of, the sealing bolt 20 can be separated from the filling hole 14 to easily discharge the fluid inside the balancer to the outside. Accordingly, even when the product is disposed of, the fluid can be discharged more conveniently, and thus, the product has a convenient advantage in recyclability.
이상과 같이 구성되는 본 발명에 의하면, 밸런서의 내부에 충진되는 유체의 주입 및 배출이 아주 쉽게 구성되고 있음을 알 수 있다. 이와 같은 본 발명의 기본적인 기술적 사상의 범주 내에서, 당업계의 통상의 지식을 가진 자에게 있어서는 다른 많은 변형이 가능함은 자명하고, 본 발명의 첨부한 특허청구의 범위에 의하여 해석되어야 할 것이다.According to the present invention configured as described above, it can be seen that the injection and discharge of the fluid filled in the balancer is very easy. Within the scope of the basic technical spirit of the present invention, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that many other modifications are possible and should be interpreted by the appended claims of the present invention.
이상과 같은 본 발명에 의하면, 제품의 폐기시 자동 유체 밸런서의 내부에 내장되어 있는 유체를 아주 편리하게 외부로 배출시킬 수 있게 된다. 따라서 수명이 다한 제품의 폐기시 재활용이 아주 편리하게 되는 장점이 기대된다.According to the present invention as described above, the fluid contained in the interior of the automatic fluid balancer at the time of disposal of the product can be discharged to the outside very conveniently. Therefore, it is expected that the recycling becomes very convenient when disposing of the product at the end of its life.
