Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for applying finishing panels to the door of a dishwasher.
  • the upper panel which carries the controls can receive one or more strips below to reach the same height of the drawers of the nearby furniture, and the panel which covers the door is mounted by hinges, independently of the door, on the structure of the machine, it is provided with springs which recall it in the closed position, keeping it in contact with the door, and cooperates with a system of levers which, when the door is opened, move away from 'she lé panel allowing it then to slide on the small upper panel during the progress of the opening.
  • the small upper panel can certainly be suitable for the height of the drawers, but it does not properly continue the aesthetic line; the larger panel may be completely suitable for the furniture line, but at the cost of serious constructive complications; and, moreover, the fact that the larger panel must slide on the small upper panel during the opening of the door places limits on the possibility of installing on the small upper panel a handle for controlling the opening of the door .
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a device for applying finishing panels to the door of a dishwashing machine which, with a minimum of constructive complexity, consents to adapt completely, both as dimensions and as lines , the finishing panels of the machine with the characteristic of adjacent furniture, and which also allows the installation of the operating handle in an easy position on the small upper panel of the door.
  • the device for applying the finishing panels to the door comprises hinged means, each with two plates, an interior applicable or integral with the door of the machine and the other exterior intended to receive the application of a panel, these two plates being interconnected by a hinge pivot placed in their upper part, and being provided with means for limiting the reciprocal opening angle.
  • the larger panel applied to the machine door can be limited above and below the corresponding heights of the doors of adjacent furniture, and its upper end does not move relative to the door, thus allowing the free application of an operating handle, while the lower end deviates slightly from the door during opening and is freely placed in the cavity of the base of the machine, the height of which does not need to be brought into line with the height of the cavity of the base of the other adjacent furniture.
  • the panel being connected to the door near its upper end it does not require any special return spring in the closed position and it is returned by the same return springs of the door, suitably sized. This ensures safe and correct operation with remarkable constructive simplicity.
  • said means for limiting the opening angle of the hinged means also include return springs towards the closed position of the hinged means.
  • Said means for limiting the opening angle can simply be formed by a rod, applied to the outer plate of the hinged means, which passes through the inner plate and ends with a head for limiting the stroke, with a compression spring inserted between said limiting head and the inner plate of the hinged means.
  • the outer plate of the hinged means may have, on the side intended to receive the finishing panel, lockable connection means for a connection plate which can be applied to the internal side of the panel.
  • each connection plate may have a hook which can be inserted into an opening in the outer plate of the hinged means, and a lockable lower bolt which acts on the inside of the panel in a hole. buttonhole of said outer plate.
  • the springs for returning the machine door to the closed position have tension adjustment means making it possible to compensate for the weight of the finishing panels.
  • the springs can be adjusted to obtain either a secure closure and stability in the open position.
  • these means for adjusting the tension of the springs can be constituted by a plurality of spaced and selectable hooking means, for hooking the ends of the springs opposite to those which are fixed to the door.
  • the machine control panel is advantageously of limited extension and can be framed in an upper finishing panel of variable extension.
  • the control panel preferably includes a handle for operating the opening of the machine door.
  • Figure 1 is a partial elevational and partially sectioned view of a dishwashing machine provided with finishing panels applied according to the invention to its door, with the door closed;
  • Figure 2 is a partial view similar to that of Figure 1 but with the door open;
  • Figure 3 is an exploded partial perspective view which illustrates the front part of a dishwashing machine with the top panel applied and the larger panel detached, further showing one of the devices for applying this panel broken down into its parts.
  • the dishwashing machine illustrated comprises a body 1 which rests on the floor P by means of its feet 2 and which has a recessed part 3 below, forming a re-entrant base.
  • hinges 4 which by pivots 5 carry movable supports 6 to which is fixed a door 8 which can be opened by reversing it downwards (arrow A) e closed by raising it again (arrow C).
  • the door 8 carries on the inside a counter door 9, generally provided with means for dispensing detergents and gloss.
  • the operation of the door 8 is facilitated by a partial balancing of its weight carried out by tension springs 10 hooked on one side to the body 1 and on the other side to attachment appendages 7 presented by the movable supports 6 of door 8.
  • tension springs 10 hooked on one side to the body 1 and on the other side to attachment appendages 7 presented by the movable supports 6 of door 8.
  • the larger panel 12 for finishing the door 8 is connected to the latter by articulation pivots 13 placed in the upper part and in a position chosen a little below. of the level established by the maximum possible height N of the drawers of the furniture.
  • the panel 12 (which, of course, is produced each time in shape, material, color and finish corresponding to those of the furniture) extends above the hinge pin 13 up to the same level of the furniture doors; in addition, it extends down to the same height from the ground (between H and K) of the furniture doors, and it partially covers the base 3 returning from the body 1 which therefore does not need be adapted in height in turn, because it is sufficient that its height is not less than the maximum height K which may be necessary.
  • two articulation pivots 13 are provided, placed near the lateral ends. of the door 8.
  • Each pivot 13 interconnects an inner plate 14, which can be fixed to the door 8 (preferably in correspondence of a retreat which it forms in 8 ′) by means of screws 15, and of a outer plate 16 which thus forms with the plate 14 a hinge.
  • the outer plate 16 carries a rod 17 which extends through an opening 14 'of the plate 14 and receives a head 18 with a diameter larger than that of the opening 14', so that these parts limit the opening angle of the hinge 14 - 16.
  • a compression spring 19, introduced between the inner plate 14 and the head 18 of the rod 17, further tends to keep the hinge 14 - 16 closed.
  • a connection plate 20 is intended to be fixed by means of screws 24 on the inner side of the panel 12.
  • the plate 20 has a hook 21 above capable of penetrating into a window 16 1 of the outer plate 16 of the hinge, and it furthermore has a threaded hole 22 in the bottom, into which a hexagonal screw 23 can be screwed capable of entering a buttonhole hole 16 "in the outer plate 16. This arrangement allows the panel 12 to be mounted invisible on the door 8.
  • the panel 12 can be hung on the hinges 14 - 16 by engaging the hooks 21 of the plates 20 in the windows 16 'of the plates 16 of the hinges already applied to the door 8; and by engaging in the buttonhole holes 16 "the heads of the screws 23 partially screwed into the threaded holes 22 of the plates 20.
  • the hooking is weak however, but by removing the panel. 12 from door 8 as far as the means 17 - 18 for limiting the opening angle of the hinged means 13 - 16 allow, it is possible to achieve, with a key, the hexagonal heads of the screws 23 and tighten them, thereby blocking the mounting of the panel 12 on the door 8.
  • the springs 19 and the action of gravity ensure correct and permanent adhesion from panel 12 to door 8; pads 25 made of flexible material prevent any noise from contact between said parts during operation of the machine.
  • the springs 10 Since the weight of the panel 12 is supported by the door 8, the springs 10 must also partially compensate for its weight, which moreover is variable according to the choice of the furniture manufacturer. It is therefore appropriate for the body 1 to have a plurality of hooking means 26, one of which will be conveniently chosen to hang the spring 10 therein in order to produce a tension appropriate to the weight of the panel 12 applied to the door 8.
  • the panel 27 placed in the upper zone of the door 8, carrying the controls and controlling the operation of the dishwashing machine, is reduced, according to the application of the invention, to a strip of remarkable width and height. lower than the corresponding width of the machine and the height (variable between the limits indicated) of the drawers of the kitchen furniture. It therefore lends itself to be framed in a small panel or small front 11, predisposed by the furniture manufacturer, having material, color and appearance similar to that of furniture, and of a height corresponding to the drawers of the furniture.
  • Said small front in which is formed a small window of dimensions corresponding to the panel 27, is therefore introduced around the latter and fixed to the door 8 by posterior screws, without any problem, thereby achieving the best possible unification of the appearance of the dishwashing machine and the furniture into which it is inserted.
  • the panel 27 is conveniently incorporated a handle 28 which allows the door 8 to be operated by the user and which is thus placed in a particularly advantageous position.
