Description

FRONT LOAD WASHING MACHINE
The object of the invention is a household appliance that is dedicated to laundry care, preferably a front load washing machine that is loaded through a loading opening and comprises a pivotably mounted housing of a drum with an opening within a housing of the machine, said opening corresponding to the loading opening; a drum mounted within the housing of the drum; an elastic water-tight gasket that connects the housing of the machine with the housing of the drum through the opening and the loading opening; and a door for closing the loading opening, which door is pivotably hinged to the housing of the machine and has a loading element arched towards the drum interior.
Technical Problem
The technical problem that is solved by the present invention is to conceive such loading element of a washing machine door that will prevent the laundry from getting accumulated and stuck in a gap between a wall of the door loading element and a sealing element and will at the same time allow the laundry to be pushed out of the gap and to remain undamaged. As a consequence the elastic gasket will remain undamaged as well. The concept of such loading element of the door should at the same time be technologically unsophisticated and economically justifiable.
Prior Art
The opening for loading the laundry into a front load washing machine is closed by a door that is hinged to the housing of the machine. The edge of the opening of the housing of the machine and that of the housing of the drum that is fastened in the housing of the machine with a spring are closed in a water-tight manner by an elastic gasket. Owing to the design of the washing machine and the pivotable fastening of the door via hinge on the housing of the machine, the door is provided with a loading element that is arched and oriented towards the interior of the drum of the washing machine. It is most frequently made of a transparent glass that provides for monitoring the situation within the drum of the machine from the outside. The loading element is formed as a truncated cone for technological reasons. Due to said requirements a rather wide gap appears between the elastic gasket and the glass cone-shaped loading element of the door, into which gap the rotating laundry or part of the laundry can get into. Due to rotation and the forces created while the laundry rotates in the drum, the laundry can get accumulated in the gap. The friction can cause damage to this part of the laundry and/or wear of the elastic gasket. As the laundry gets rubbed against the gasket, it might happen that traces of the gasket remain on the laundry after the completed washing cycle.
The laundry is prevented from getting into said gap between the loading element and the elastic gasket by differently shaped deflectors arranged on the elastic gasket itself, usually in an integrally bonded manner. Such solutions have proved to be rather inadequate as the laundry still gets rubbed against the deflector. Due to the friction between them, the deflector gets worn and the laundry gets dirty. In fact, the deflectors of this type reduce a possibility of the laundry from getting into the gap, yet do not completely eliminate it. In the event that the laundry gets into the gap, it gets accumulated there and this results in the laundry and/or the gasket getting damaged. Further, there are known solutions to hindering the laundry from getting into said gap by various design solutions of the loading element of the washing machine door. In DE 10228602 Al the upper part of the cone-shaped loading element facing the interior of the drum is bevelled. The part that is bevelled can also be concave, such that the laundry and the water are additionally directed into the interior of the drum. The loading element thus designed somewhat prevents the laundry from getting into the gap yet the laundry can still enter the gap, get accumulated there and get rubbed against the gasket thus causing damage to the latter.
The loading element according to DE 102006029480 has a sickle-like surface that extends over the height of the shell of the truncated cone and at a certain angle relative to the base surface as a spiral. The laundry that falls downwards during the rotation within the drum falls onto the loading element and slides along the sickle-like surface into the direction defined by the sickle-like spiral. The loading element thus shaped directs the falling laundry and the water into the interior of the rotating drum but cannot completely prevent the rotating laundry from getting into the gap between the wall of the loading element and the elastic gasket. The gap between the wall of the loading element and the elastic gasket cannot be completely eliminated due to known technology of production of the loading element and the pivotable opening of the door. When an individual piece of laundry or part of a piece of the laundry gets into said gap, it accumulates, rotates and slides within the gap on the loading element and the gasket. The laundry gets damaged and the gasket gets damaged, too. Due to rotation the forces are exerted on the laundry that prevents the laundry from getting out of the gap. The sickle-like loading element slightly increases a possibility for the laundry to get directed into the interior of the drum while rotating in the drum; however it cannot completely prevent it from getting into said gap and from getting accumulated in it. In fact, once the laundry has got into the gap such concept does not allow the laundry to get out of it and to prevent damage to both the laundry and the gasket. Moreover, the production of the loading element so designed is more demanding.
Solution to the Technical Problem
The mentioned technical problem of the invention is solved by a loading element of the door of a washing machine that is provided on its outer wall with a deflector formed as a flat bulge extending over the height of the shell wall, preferably over the height of the flat section of the shell wall, said deflector being provided with a surface proximal to an elastic gasket and substantially parallel to the axis of rotation of a drum or the washing machine. Said deflector which is substantially triangular or substantially trapeziform has an apex facing the interior of the drum and at least one guiding edge extending diagonally over the shell wall of the loading element and having a width increasing with the height of the deflector. It is especially favourable that the deflector which faces the interior of the drum has two, preferably symmetrical guiding edges extending diagonally over the outer wall of the loading element and having a width increasing with the height of the deflector and corresponding to its thickness.
The thickness of the deflector increases with its height and reaches its maximum in the apex area such that it substantially fills in the gap between the outer shell of the loading element of the door and the elastic gasket in the section where it is present. The shell of the loading element is provided with at least one such deflector, there may be a plurality of them. In the event of a single deflector and even in the event of a plurality of deflectors one of them is arranged on the portion of the shell of the loading element most proximal to the door hinge. Due to the pivotable opening/closing of the door the thickness of the deflector can reach the maximum dimension in this section which is substantially the entire width of the gap.
The laundry rotating within the drum that gets into said gap glides inside the gap. Once the laundry which is present within said gap and moves within it hits against a deflector or its guiding edge, it slides along said edge upwards all the way to the top of the deflector where the remaining laundry rotating within the drum takes it back into the drum. Owing to the preferably symmetrical shape of the deflector the laundry, while rotating in the drum in different directions, once slides along one guiding edge and another time along another guiding edge. This is why one deflector arranged on the shell wall of the filling element can push the laundry out of the gap in both directions of drum rotation. The loading element of the door may be provided with more than one deflector of the described type and if there is a plurality of them they are arranged equidistantly over the wall of the loading element.
The disclosed deflector is made from a material meeting the requirements of the washing machine operation, preferably from the same material as the loading element and concurrently with it, such that the loading element and the deflector are integrally bonded. The concept of the deflector is simple also from the technological point of view and can be designed onto any known loading element.
The invention will be described in more detail by way of an embodiment and drawings representing in
Figure 1 : Schematic longitudinal cross-section of a washing machine,
Figure 2: Loading element of the door with a deflector A front load washing machine that is loaded through a loading opening 9 is provided in a housing 1 of the machine with a pivotably elastically mounted housing 2 of the drum with an opening 10 corresponding to the loading opening 9; with a drum 3 pivotably mounted within the housing 2 of the drum; with an elastic gasket 4 that connects the housing 1 of the machine and the housing 2 of the drum via loading opening 9 and the opening 10; and with a door 5 for closing the loading opening 9. The door 5 is pivotably hinged to the housing 1 of the machine and provided with a glass loading element 6 that is arched towards the interior of the drum 3 and allows monitoring of the situation within the drum during the operation of the washing machine. The loading element 6 has a flange 8, with which it is firmly fixed into the door 5 frame.
Due to known technological requirements for the production of the loading element 6 and of the pivotable opening/closing of the door 5 and due to the required depth of the loading element 6 the glass loading element 6 is cone-shaped, preferably in the shape of a truncated cone, that continues at its wider section into the flange 8 through a rounded portion. While the door is closed the elastic gasket 4 seals the area of the rounded portion of the loading element 6. The upper section of the loading element 6 is provided with a recess and an inclination in any known way that is meant to direct the water and the laundry into the interior of the drum. The shape of the inclination and the recess of the loading element are not the object of the present invention. When the door is closed a cone-shaped gap 12 is created between the cone's shell wall 1 1 of the loading element 6 and the elastic gasket 4 that abuts the loading element in the closed position of the door. The cone-shaped gap 12 is due to a construction of the washing machine and the pivotable fastening of the door on the housing of the machine and due to the production technology of the loading element. The width of the gap 12 is such that the laundry can get accumulated and stuck within it.
On the shell section of the truncated cone the loading element 6 has an integrally formed deflector 13 formed as a substantially triangular flat bulge that extends over the height of the shell wall 1 1 of the loading element 6, preferably along the height of the flat portion of the shell wall 11 and adapts to the curvature of the loading element 6. A surface 14 of the deflector lying opposite the elastic gasket 4 is substantially parallel to the axis of rotation of the drum of the washing machine. The deflector 13 is provided with a basic edge 15 that is arranged in the sealing portion of the loading element 6 and adapts to the curvature of the shell wall 1 1 of the loading element and with an apex 16 arranged on the outer wall 11 opposite the basic edge 15. Mutually symmetrical guiding edges 17, 17' extend from the basic edge 15 towards the apex 16 diagonally along the shell wall 11 of the loading element. The width of each edge 17, 17' increases with the height of the deflector 13 and corresponds to the thickness of the deflector 13.
The deflector 13 is made from the same material as the loading element 6, it is preferably integrally formed with the basic loading element and made concurrently with the loading element. The deflector 13 of the invention can be subsequently fastened to the loading element 6 in various known ways, by bonding for instance.
The thickness of the deflector 13 increases with its height and is the smallest in the sealing portion of the loading element 6 and the widest in the portion of the apex 16 such that it substantially fills in the gap 12 between the shell wall 11 of the loading element 6 and the elastic gasket 4 in the section where it is present. The laundry that got into the gap 12 slides on the gap, especially on the gasket 4. When it reaches the deflector 13 or rather the guiding edge 17, 17', the laundry slides along the guiding edge 17, 17' towards the apex 16 of the deflector 13 where it exits the gap into the interior of the drum. The gap 12 is fully filled in the area of the deflector 13 and the laundry is prevented from getting into this area.
There is at least one deflector 13 of the invention on the shell wall 1 1 of the loading element 6, there may be a plurality of deflectors. In the event of a single deflector and in the event of a plurality of deflectors one of them is arranged on the portion of the shell wall 1 1 of the loading element 6 most proximal to the door hinge. Due to the pivotable opening/closing of the door 5 the thickness of the deflector 13 can reach the maximum dimension in this section which is substantially the entire width of the gap 12. If there is a plurality of deflectors 13 on the shell wall of the loading element 6, they are arranged equidistantly, wherein individual deflectors differ among each other in their thickness depending on their position on the loading element 6.
Owing to the symmetrical shape of the deflector of the invention the laundry can get out of the gap 12 in both rotation directions in the drum, which makes the solution even simpler and increases efficiency.
The deflector of the invention may be provided with a channel or an interruption in direction of the axis in the central part of the deflector which allows the water to flow away. It is understood that a person skilled in the art may conceive different deflectors without circumventing the essential characteristics of the invention.
