_O od like material made of sheet metal. Manufactured housing jacket for a Trommelwas chinas chine.

The invention relates to a sheet metal or the like. Material manufactured, consisting of front, side and back Housing jacket with mounting flap that extends over the entire width of the front wall, for a front-loaded, horizontally mounted drum washing machine »

Casing casings used for ash machines have been known for years. These known casing casings are composed of several parts, namely: front wall, left side wall, right side wall, rear wall and assembly flap _a

manufactures and special assemblies as part of the assembly attention is drawn to the fact that the continuous assembly flap "in the case of a multi-piece housing jacket than belonged to the state of the art

The above-described structure, known per se, has the disadvantage that it is due to the individual manufacture of the various parts are associated with very high manufacturing costs »

The inventor has become aware of the above Deficiencies set the task of creating an improvement in the field of precise coating, which is particularly geared to cost savings in the "production and assembly" is a prerequisite, however, that the outer picture of the ash machine casing in its simplicity is retained, especially with regard to the continuous assembly flap, which in a known manner over the total + width of the headband enough"

The object set is achieved according to the invention in that the one-piece housing casing

Another feature of the invention can be seen in the fact that the lower part of the Yorderwand with its cutout for the assembly flap set back from the front wall and on both sides with this through angle plates is stiffened.

The lower part of the front wall with its cutout for the assembly flap is cut open at one point, so that by shifting the kink line when creating the sheathing a lap is created, whose both parts are connected to one another by welding, riveting or the like "

To stiffen the lower part of the front wall against-

According to Figures 1 to 7, the housing jacket is denoted by 1. The housing jacket 1 is made in one piece · Here the front wall is marked with 2, the lower part of the front wall with 3? the side walls with 4 ₉ 5 and the split rear wall with 6, 7 denotes «The seam between the rear walls 6, 7 bears the number 8. In the lower part of the front wall 3, a cutout 9 for the assembly flap 10 is provided. To stiffen the lower part of the front wall 3 with the cutout 9, inwardly extending tabs 3 are provided on both sides. Here, the V / inkelbleche 2 are integral with the end wall 2. The lower web of the front wall 3 is separated at 3.

The housing jacket 1 has inwardly angled collar edges on the upper and lower circumferential edge 2,4,5,6,7 on · The corners of these collar edges 2 »4,5» 6 »7 overlap in the bent state · The overlaps are joined by welding 11

When creating the housing shell 1, the side walls 4, 5 are now bent backwards by 90 ° with respect to the end wall 2 _e In addition, the lower part of the front wall 3 is set back by a few cm. This gives the possibility that the continuous Hontageklappe 10 is approximately flush with the front wall 2 «This can, but does not have to be the Pail» overlap the infcelble sheets 2 »The ver—

Because the lower part of the front wall 3 is set back, there is also freedom of the operator to puss given.
