Lye container for drum washing machines

With xröniiüelwascliuiäschiii8s it's all over

Pstent

Font 373 342 known for carrying the tub including of the ¥ ash conveyor and the drive device and the drum bearing to use a frame held on the support frame. This frame is designed as a support belt, which is made of a material of low strength, in particular made of plastic, existing tub is directly rigidly connected and rests in the central area of the tub. A Such a carrying belt gives the tub great strength, which the container does not have by itself without a carrying belt. The fact that the carrying belt contributes to the stability of the tub preferably fits snugly on the outside of the container.

The Isdüarabrag: refers to a tub for drum washing machines with a support frame to absorb the bearing forces, to carry the drive and to hold the container

According to the innovation in fastening means supporting the outer housing, the support frame has a part surrounding the loading opening in the shape of a frame, at least two parts that are parallel to the axis are assigned to the cylinder jacket of the tub and at least three each lead in a star shape to the bearing body (s) and are assigned to an end face of the tub parts »Bin such the tub umklammerndes from all sides ₉ tired of lying on its edges in the area of the loading opening and at its sides and faces support frame results in a highly stable solution container construction _s in it. it is possible to manufacture the container walls which delimit the interior space from extremely thin material, for example from thin sheet steel or from plastic. The cost of materials for the support frame can also be reduced to a minimum, because this frame supported the container not only as a frame that clasped in the storage area, but as a rib structure encompassing all sides act, i.e. the bearing forces, the weight and the vibrating forces of the drum and the drive and also the forces acting on the tub through the fastening means from the outer housing,

can when applying the gggmefcctHg: in each case at the most favorable point, namely where _s where these forces act directly _s are absorbed by support frame parts.

Innovation '

For the execution of the SxfiKäitHg there are two fundamentally different ones Solutions. One can use the tub space Unlocking jacket made of thin sheet metal or plastic as a separate one Execute the component and insert it into the prefabricated support frame in such a way that it is clasped and held by this part In this case, the support frame and jacket can consist of the same material or also of different materials. So Both parts can be made of sheet steel or plastic. But you can also, for example, in a metal support frame insert a thin-walled plastic container. A renewal of their possible solution path of JöriboübenKg is that a the tub space enclosing jacket made of sheet metal or plastic is used, which together with the support frame from a Piece is made. Both approaches have the task of absorbing and transferring forces on the one hand and on the other hand To form receptacles for lye or the like, well separated from each other.

The T.wa can be used for front-loading drum washing machines as well as for drum washing machines loaded from above The support frame can be a circular part surrounding the porthole opening, several - preferably six - in parallel Parts located on the axis and assigned to the cylindrical container shell and on the drive side corresponding to the bearing have ropes leading the body, which are an extension of the parallel to form parts lying to the axis. If it's a coat-fed Drum washing machine is, the execution

In the first embodiment, the tub has a support frame that acts as a separate rigid support body for a made of thin sheet metal or plastic jacket The support frame has a porthole opening that surrounds it circular rope 1, six parallel to the axis of the loading

The areas 6 and 7 of the thin-walled jacket, which lie between the support frame parts in the cylindrical jacket area, are bulged outward in a manner known per se, for example by hydraulic means, to form receiving rivet pockets. They are used to form a fluid sump in the lower tub area or to accommodate radiators, condensers or the like «.

The one in Pig. 3 laundry drum, not shown, can preferably be inserted from above through the loading opening into the bearing points 14 of the tub.

innovation
When using the Sicfekittong, the production of bulges, for example a pocket for a liquid sump, in which the wall is turned out of the usual radial embossing direction, can also be considered. Ea, therefore, more complicated additional tubing parts in the form of open or closed cavities can be produced by subsequent hydraulic stamping or deformation in such a way that they are "moved" into the final operating position of the associated functional elements. An exemplary embodiment for this is shown in FIGS. 4a and b.

This is the hydraulic imprinting of a sump 6 on the lower part of the thin-walled casing 2 of a tub. In Pig. 4a shows the first phase of hydraulic stamping, the stamping direction being indicated by arrow 21. Pig. 4b shows the end position of the tub wall after hydraulic stamping. Here, in the direction of arrow 22 from the position of Figure 4a out a subsequent "Hinrücken ¹¹ takes place in the final position." -

innovation
Purely for the embodiments of the gyftfrwhrgg, it is essential that the support frame parts lie tightly against the thin-walled tub parts on all sides, so that a good support function results everywhere. While in the exemplary embodiments, the tubs are made in two parts, with a thin-walled jacket being tightly inserted into the close-fitting support frame,

As a novelty, one can also choose embodiments of the % x £ xstik! X && v / in which a jacket made of sheet metal or plastic and which surrounds the tub is made in one piece with the support frame.
