Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Dosierspeicher zur Aufnahme und Abgabe einer Wäschebehandlungsflüssigkeit gemäß den Merkma­len des Oberbegriffes des Anspruches 1.The invention relates to a dosing store for receiving and dispensing a laundry treatment liquid according to the features of the preamble of claim 1.

Dosierspeicher zur Aufnahme und Abgabe einer Wäschebehand­lungsflüssigkeit sind in verschiedenen Ausgestaltungen be­kannt geworden. Aus der US-T 993 001 ist beispielsweise ein Dosierspeicher bekannt, welcher mit einer Wäschebehandlungs­flüssigkeit gefüllt in eine Waschmaschine eingegeben wird. Der Dosierspeicher ist zunächst verschlossen. In einem be­stimmten Zyklus der Waschmaschine, dem Schleuderzyklus, öff­net er sich aufgrund eines an dem Verschlußteil angebrachten Gewichtes. Die Fliehkraft überwindet die Verschlußkraft des Deckels. Ein Dosierspeicher, welcher nach dem gleichen Prin­zip arbeitet, ist auch etwa aus der US-PS 3 888 391 bekannt. Des weiteren geht aus der US-PS 2 941 309 ein Dosierspeicher hervor, welcher nicht verschließbare Öffnungen besitzt. Die Wäschebehandlungsflüssigkeit kann sogleich zu Beginn eines Waschmaschinenzyklus oder dergleichen austreten. Bei dem in Rede stehenden Dosierspeicher handelt es sich etwa um Was­ser, welches in einem Trockner der Wäsche zum Befeuchten zugegeben wird, um die geeignete Bügelfeuchte einzustellen.Dosing stores for receiving and dispensing a laundry treatment liquid have become known in various configurations. From US-T 993 001, for example, a metering memory is known, which is filled with a laundry treatment liquid and fed into a washing machine. The dosing reservoir is initially closed. In a certain cycle of the washing machine, the spin cycle, it opens due to a weight attached to the closure part. The centrifugal force overcomes the closing force of the lid. A metering memory which works on the same principle is also known from US Pat. No. 3,888,391. Furthermore, US Pat. No. 2,941,309 discloses a metering memory which has openings which cannot be closed. The laundry treatment liquid can escape immediately at the beginning of a washing machine cycle or the like. The dosing store in question is, for example, water which is added to the laundry for moistening in order to set the appropriate ironing moisture.

Die bekannten Dosierspeicher sind jedoch noch nicht in jeder Hinsicht zufriedenstellend. Bei Dosierspeichern, welche erst in einem bestimmten Zyklus einer Waschmaschine, dem Schleu­ derzyklus, öffnen, kann die Wäschebehandlungsflüssigkeit nicht sogleich nach Beginn der Wäschebehandlung zugegeben werden. Andererseits ist es erwünscht, daß ein Dosierspei­cher zumindest beim Einsetzen in die Waschmaschine verschlos­sen ist. Geringfügige Lageveränderungen oder eine leicht gekippte Stellung des Dosierspeichers nach dem Einsetzen in die Waschmaschine sollen nicht sogleich zu einer - vollstän­digen - Öffnung führen.However, the known dosing stores are not yet satisfactory in every respect. In the case of dosing stores, which only lock in a certain cycle of a washing machine open cycle, the laundry treatment liquid cannot be added immediately after the laundry treatment has started. On the other hand, it is desirable that a dosing reservoir is closed at least when it is inserted into the washing machine. Slight changes in position or a slightly tilted position of the dosing reservoir after insertion in the washing machine should not immediately lead to a - complete - opening.

Darüber hinaus soll der Dosierspeicher möglichst gebrauchs­vorteilhaft ausgebildet sein, das heißt, einfach und be­triebssicher zu handhaben.In addition, the dosing reservoir should be designed to be as advantageous as possible in terms of use, that is to say it can be handled simply and reliably.

Im Hinblick auf den beschreibenen Stand der Technik stellt sich der Erfindung die Aufgabe, einen Dosierspeicher anzuge­ben, welcher beim Einsetzen in die Waschmaschine geschlossen ist und insbesondere gebrauchsvorteilhafter ausgestaltet ist.In view of the described prior art, the object of the invention is to provide a metering memory which is closed when it is inserted into the washing machine and is in particular more advantageous in use.

Diese Aufgabe ist insbesondere bei einem Dosierspeicher mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 gelöst.This object is achieved in particular in the case of a metering store with the features of claim 1.

Der Dosierspeicher gemäß der Erfindung zur Aufnahme und Abgabe einer Wäschebehandlungsflüssigkeit in einer Waschma­schine besitzt einen während der Wäschebehandlung öffenbaren Verschluß, welcher durch einen im Inneren des Dosierspei­chers pendelnd gelagerten Verschlußteller gebildet ist, der die Austrittsöffnung des Dosierspeichers von innen verschließt. Die pendelnde Lagerung des Verschlußtellers erlaubt ein Füllen des Dosierspeichers bei einem entsprechen­den Kippen desselben. Wenn der Dosierspeicher sodann wieder in eine senkrechte Lage gebracht wird, schiebt sich der Ver­schlußteller innen in dem Dosierspeicher über die Austritts­öffnung. Vorteilhafterweise ist der Verschlußteller in sei­nem Durchmesser größer ausgebildet als die Austrittsöffnung, so daß leichte Auslenkungen aus der Senkrechten noch nicht zu einer Öffnung des Dosierspeichers führen. Durch die bei Einsetzen der Trommelbewegung einer Waschmaschine hervorgeru­ fene Taumelbewegung des Dosierspeichers bewegt sich der pendelgelagerte Verschlußteller von der Austrittsöffnung weg und die Wäschebehandlungsflüssigkeit kann in die Waschflüs­sigkeit austreten. Die pendelnder Lagerung des Verschlußtel­lers kann sogar derart eingestellt sein, daß die Austritts­öffnung nur mit einer gedämpften Bewegung freigegeben wird, das heißt, ein schwallartiges Austreten der Wäschebehand­lungsflüssigkeit weitgehend vermieden wird. Der Verschlußtel­ler ist bevorzugt mit einer Lagerungsstange versehen, die ein Gegengewicht aufweist und bezüglich ihres Schwerpunktes verschoben zu dem Verschlußteller pendelfähig aufgehängt ist. Durch die Verschiebung des Aufhängepunktes bzw. der Lagerungsstelle der Lagerungsstange zu dem Verschlußteller hin ist bei einem senkrechten Aufstellen des Dosierspeichers gewährleistet, daß der Verschlußteller sich in der Verschluß­stellung befindet. Desgleichen ist die Auslenkung des Ver­schlußtellers bis hin zur vollständigen Öffnung der Aus­trittsöffnung des Dosierspeichers gegeben bei einer entspre­chenden Verlagerung des Dosierspeichers, da eben das Gegenge­wicht bestrebt ist, die Lagerungsstange mit dem daran befe­stigten Verschlußteller in der Senkrechten zu halten. Hin­sichtlich der Befestigung der Lagerungsstange in dem Dosier­speicher ist in weiterer Ausgestaltung vorgesehen, daß die Lagerungsstange mittels eines Kugelgelenks zur freien Pendel­fähigkeit mit einer im Ruhezustand etwa senkrecht zu der Lagerungsstange verlaufenden Lagerungsachse gekoppelt ist. Die Lagerungsachse ist jeweils in gegenüberliegenden Wandbe­reichen des Dosierspeichers gehaltert. Das Kugelgelenk kann durch eine an der Lagerungsachse fest angebrachten Kugel gebildet sein, die in ihrem Äquatorbereich schalenartig gefaßt ist, während die Lagerungsstange die Pole durchsetzt. Die Lagerungsstange kann sich bei dieser Ausgestaltung in der durch die schalenartige Fassung gegebenen Grenze in alle Richtungen frei bewegen. Es ist auch möglich, die Kopplung der Lagerungsstange mit der Lagerungsachse mittels eines geeigneten Kugellager-Gelenkes zu verwirklichen.The dosing reservoir according to the invention for receiving and dispensing a laundry treatment liquid in a washing machine has a closure which can be opened during the laundry treatment and which is formed by a closure plate which is pivotally mounted in the interior of the dosing reservoir and which closes the outlet opening of the dosing reservoir from the inside. The oscillating mounting of the locking plate allows the dosing reservoir to be filled if the same is tilted accordingly. When the dosing reservoir is then brought into a vertical position again, the closure plate is pushed inside the dosing reservoir over the outlet opening. The diameter of the closure plate is advantageously larger than the outlet opening, so that slight deflections from the vertical do not yet lead to an opening of the metering reservoir. Due to the onset of drum movement in a washing machine When the metering accumulator wobbles, the pendulum-mounted closure plate moves away from the outlet opening and the laundry treatment liquid can escape into the washing liquid. The oscillating mounting of the closure plate can even be set such that the outlet opening is only released with a damped movement, that is to say a gush-like leakage of the laundry treatment liquid is largely avoided. The locking plate is preferably provided with a storage rod which has a counterweight and is suspended such that it can swing in relation to the locking plate with respect to its center of gravity. The displacement of the suspension point or the storage location of the support rod towards the locking plate ensures that the locking plate is in the closed position when the dosing reservoir is installed vertically. Likewise, the deflection of the breech plate up to the complete opening of the outlet opening of the dosing reservoir is given with a corresponding shift of the dosing reservoir, since the counterweight tends to keep the storage rod with the closure plate attached to it in the vertical. With regard to the attachment of the bearing rod in the metering reservoir, it is provided in a further embodiment that the bearing rod is coupled by means of a ball joint for free oscillation with a bearing axis running approximately perpendicular to the bearing rod in the idle state. The bearing axis is held in opposite wall areas of the metering reservoir. The ball-and-socket joint can be formed by a ball which is fixedly attached to the bearing axis and has a shell-like shape in its equatorial region, while the bearing rod passes through the poles. In this embodiment, the bearing rod can move freely in all directions within the limit given by the shell-like frame. It is also possible to implement the coupling of the bearing rod to the bearing axis by means of a suitable ball bearing joint.

Bevorzugt ist im übrigen, daß der Dosierspeicher in seinem der Austrittsöffnung gegenüberliegenden Bereich eine Abfla­chung zur Ausbildung einer Standfläche aufweist.It is also preferred that the metering reservoir has a flattened area in its area opposite the outlet opening to form a standing surface.

Nachstehend ist die Erfindung anhand der beigefügten Zeich­nung, die jedoch lediglich ein Ausführungsbeispiel darstellt, erläutert. Es zeigt auf dieser Zeichnung:

  • Fig. 1 einen Querschnitt durch einen erfindungsgemäßen Dosierspeicher, in senkrechter Stellung;
  • Fig. 2 den Dosierspeicher gemäß Fig. 1, in gekippter Stellung;
  • Fig. 3 eine Einzeldarstellung der mit der Lagerungsachse gekoppelten Lagerungsstange;
  • Fig. 4 eine Detaildarstellung der Kopplung zwischen der Lagerungsachse und der Lagerungsstange.
The invention is explained below with reference to the accompanying drawing, which, however, only represents an exemplary embodiment. It shows on this drawing:
  • Figure 1 shows a cross section through a metering store according to the invention, in the vertical position.
  • FIG. 2 the dosing reservoir according to FIG. 1, in the tilted position;
  • 3 shows an individual illustration of the bearing rod coupled to the bearing axis;
  • Fig. 4 is a detailed representation of the coupling between the bearing axis and the bearing rod.

Dargestellt und beschreiben ist ein Dosierspeicher 1, der zur Aufnahme und Abgabe einer Wäschebehandlungsflüssigkeit in einer Waschmaschine oder dergleichen dient. Der Dosier­speicher 1 besitzt einen während der Wäschebehandlung -selbsttätig- öffenbaren Verschluß, der durch den Verschluß­teller 2 in Zusammenwirkung mit der Austrittsöffnung bzw. auch Füllöffnung 3 gebildet ist. Die Austrittsöffnung 3 ist von innen mittels des Verschlußtellers 2 verschließbar. Der Verschlußteller 2 ist durch die mit diesem fest verbundene Lagerungsstange 4 pendelnd gelagert. An der Lagerungsstange 4 befindet sich anderendig ein Gegengewicht 5.Shown and described is a dosing store 1, which is used to hold and dispense a laundry treatment liquid in a washing machine or the like. The metering reservoir 1 has a closure which can be opened automatically during laundry treatment and which is formed by the closure plate 2 in cooperation with the outlet opening or also filling opening 3. The outlet opening 3 can be closed from the inside by means of the closure plate 2. The locking plate 2 is pivoted by the support rod 4 firmly connected to this. At the storage rod 4 there is a counterweight 5 at the other end.

Bei einer im Querschnitt kreisförmigen Gestaltung zumindest des oberen, die Austrittsöffnung 3 enthaltenden Wandberei­ches des Dosierspeichers 1, ist der Verschlußteller 2 ange­paßt sphärisch gekrümmt gestaltet (vgl. auch Fig. 3).In the case of a cross-sectionally circular configuration of at least the upper wall area of the metering reservoir 1, which contains the outlet opening 3, the closure plate 2 is adapted to be spherically curved (cf. also FIG. 3).

Die Lagerungsstange 4 ist bezüglich ihres Schwerpunktes 6 (Schwerpunkt bei angebrachtem Verschlußteller und angebrach­tem Gegengewicht) verschoben zu dem Verschlußteller 2 bei 7 pendelfähig aufgehängt. Der Verschlußteller 2 bzw. das Gegen­gewicht 5 beschreiben jeweils eine Kreisbewegung, gegebenen­falls innerhalb eines Raumkegels, um diesen Aufhängungs­punkt. Die pendelfähige Aufhängung der Lagerungsstange 4 ist, wie sich insbesondere aus Fig. 4 ergibt, im einzelnen durch eine an der Lagerungsstange 4 angebrachte Kugel 8 realisiert, welche Kugel 8 in ihrem Äquatorbereich durch ein Manschettenelement 9 gefaßt ist, das an einer Lagerungsachse 10 angebracht ist. Die Lagerungsachse 10 (vgl. Fig. 2 bzw. Fig. 3) ist an gegenüberliegenden Wandbereichen 11 des Do­sierspeichers 1 fest angebracht. Im Ruhezustand bzw. bei senkrechter Stellung des Dosierspeichers 1, wie in Fig. 1 dargestellt, verlaufen die Lagerungsstange 4 und die Lage­rungsachse 10 etwa senkrecht zueinander.The storage rod 4 is shifted with respect to its center of gravity 6 (center of gravity when the locking plate and counterweight are attached) to the locking plate 2 so that it can swing at 7. The locking plate 2 or the counterweight 5 each describe a circular movement, possibly within a space cone, around this suspension point. The pendulous suspension of the bearing rod 4 is, as can be seen in particular from FIG. 4, realized in detail by a ball 8 attached to the bearing rod 4, which ball 8 is contained in its equatorial region by a sleeve element 9 which is attached to a bearing axis 10 . The bearing axis 10 (cf. FIG. 2 or FIG. 3) is fixedly attached to opposite wall areas 11 of the metering reservoir 1. In the idle state or in the vertical position of the metering reservoir 1, as shown in FIG. 1, the bearing rod 4 and the bearing axis 10 run approximately perpendicular to one another.

Von besonderer Bedeutung ist, daß der Verschlußteller 2 allseitig im Ruhezustand die Austrittsöffnung 3 überdeckt. Bei einer nur leichten Auslenkung des Dosierspeichers 1 aus der senkrechten Stellung führt dies noch nicht sogleich zu einem Öffnen der Austrittsöffnung 3.It is particularly important that the closure plate 2 covers the outlet opening 3 on all sides in the idle state. If the metering reservoir 1 is only slightly deflected from the vertical position, this does not immediately lead to the outlet opening 3 opening.

Zum Befüllen wird der Dosierspiecher 1 etwa in die in Fig. 2 dargestellte Lage gekippt. Nach dem Befüllen wird er in eine Waschmaschine eingesetzt. Nach Beginn der Trommelbewegung der Waschmaschine wird der Dosierspeicher 1 aufgrund der einsetzenden Taumelbewegung ausgelenkt und die Austrittsöff­nung 3 teilweise bzw. ganz geöffnet. Die im Inneren des Dosierspeichers 1 befindliche Wäschebehandlungsflüssigkeit kann austreten und wird der Waschlauge zugeführt.For filling, the dispenser 1 is tilted approximately into the position shown in FIG. 2. After filling, it is placed in a washing machine. After the drum movement of the washing machine begins, the metering reservoir 1 is deflected due to the wobbling movement and the outlet opening 3 is partially or completely opened. The laundry treatment liquid located in the interior of the metering reservoir 1 can escape and is fed to the wash liquor.
