Definitions

  • a microwave oven has a cooking cavity equipped with a movable door hinged on the front face of said oven and intended to completely close the orifice of the cavity by folding down on the front face.
  • Said movable door is kept closed at least by a hook which enters an opening located on said front face and which comprises an actuating nose of a locking element as well as a notch located behind the nose and in which the element lock engages.
  • Said locking element thus positioned authorizes the subsequent closing of a switch for operating said oven under the action of an operating button located on a dashboard arranged on the front face of the oven.
  • the object of the invention is to remedy this drawback by implementing a device making it possible to avoid any operation when the door of the microwave oven is open.
  • the device is characterized in that the locking element consists of a wheel which is positioned on a plate fixed transversely to the internal front face of the microwave oven and which is fixed to said plate by a shaft parallel to said front face and around which the wheel can rotate, said wheel comprising a first face comprising two stop studs, a first stop stud located in the path of the nose and a second angularly offset stop stud and intended after rotation of said wheel by action of the nose on the first stud, to come to engage in the notch of the hook as well as a safety lock comprising a locking finger which is intended to come into abutment on a stop boss integral with the plate and arranged opposite the second face of the wheel, and which is mounted movable for this purpose against an elastic means on said second face of the wheel, said finger locking being controlled by a safety lug which protrudes through a light transverse to the first face of the wheel, and which is arranged between the two abutment pads so as to occupy two positions, namely a position
  • this device according to the invention, a simple system to be used is used and the safety of a microwave oven is considerably increased by preventing any user from triggering the operation of the appliance when the door of said oven is opened.
  • the device mounted parallel to the openings through which the locking hook enters makes it possible to free up a large space behind the dashboard of the microwave oven and thus to limit the bulk.
  • the microwave oven comprises a cooking cavity, not shown, the side walls of which bear the reference 1.
  • a front face 2 of the microwave oven forms an opening giving access to the cooking cavity.
  • a movable door 3 articulated on the front face 2 is intended to completely close the cooking cavity.
  • Said movable door 3 comprises a closure system, for example, at least one hook 4 fixed, for example, by removable fixing on the door and making it possible to obtain complete closure of the door; this hook 4 comprises, for example, an actuating nose 5 and a notch 6.
  • the notch 6 has, for example, an inverted U shape, the curved part of the U being slightly modified so as to create a slight slope s' elevating towards the nose and facilitating the sliding of the locking element 7 of the microwave oven.
  • the actuating nose has, for example, a thickness e like the entire hook 4, a width 1 and a narrowing 8 sufficiently wide to avoid any flexibility of said nose during contact of the nose on the locking element 8 of the microwave.
  • the front face 2 of the microwave oven comprises, in addition to a first opening 9 allowing the hook 4 of the movable door 3 to penetrate to come to engage in the locking element 7, other openings of which only one 10 is shown in Figure 1, said openings allowing, for example, by fixing lugs 11, 12 and 13, the positioning of a plate 14 supporting, in addition, the locking element and a switch 15 for operating the microwave oven, said plate 14 is fixed transversely to the front face 2 of the microwave oven between one of the side walls 1 of the cooking cavity of the microwave oven and locations 16, 17, 18 and 19 provided for mounting a dashboard not shown and containing, for example, components determining instructions for time, power, rapid cooking with timer setting and switching on the appliance.
  • the locking element 7 fixed on the plate 14 consists, for example, of a wheel 20.
  • the wheel 20 is rotatably mounted on said plate 14 around a shaft 21 positioned parallel to the front face 2 of the micro oven -waves and integral with the plate 14.
  • Said wheel 20 further comprises two faces A and B placed opposite, of which only one A is visible in FIG. 1.
  • the first face A comprises, for example, two studs of stop 22 and 23, a first stop stud 22 located on the path of the nose 5 of the hook 4 of the movable door 3 and a second stud 23, located near the edge 22 'of the first face A and offset angularly relative to the first pad 22 to avoid any abutment of the nose 5 on the second pad 23 when the movable door 3 is closed, as well as a light 23 'arranged angularly between and under the two stop pads 22 and 23 and allowing a lug to safety 24 positioned transversely to the first face A of the wheel 20 and constituting, in addition, an element of a locking finger 25 (shown in Figures 3a to 3c) and mounted movably on the second face B of the wheel 20 and facing the plate 14.
  • a locking finger 25 shown in Figures 3a to 3c
  • the first face A of the wheel 20 also includes a shaft 29 positioned on the periphery of the wheel 20 and situated at the top of a triangle passing through the abutment pads 22 and 23.
  • a rocker 30 is mounted free around this tree 29 of pendulum.
  • the free end 31 of this rocker 30 has, for example, a rounded shape.
  • the shoulder 32 is intended to abut against the front face 2 of the oven when the movable door 3 comes to completely close the cavity, a distance d between said shoulder 32 and the internal face of the notch 6 adjacent to the nose 5 being thus defined by rigorously by the manufacturer to obtain complete closure of the door 3 without play.
  • This rocker 30, by gravity effect, has its end 31 which is positioned at the level of the switch 15.
  • This switch 15 having a push button 33 for triggering, it suffices with a pivoting movement of the rocker 30 to activate the 'switch 15 for operating the microwave oven.
  • This pivoting movement of the rocker 30 is caused, for example, by a flap 34 mounted movable in rotation about a hinge pin 35.
  • the rotation of this flap, along an arrow F4 is caused, for example, by a operating button 36 which is the start button for the microwave oven located on the dashboard and shown partially.
  • the nose 5 of said hook 4 performs a rotational movement around the hinge axis of the door according to an arrow F1 .
  • the nose 5 engages in the opening 9 of the front face 2 of the microwave oven and strikes the first stud 22 of the wheel 20.
  • the locking finger 25, shown detached from the wheel 20 for a better understanding is located near the boss 26 to abut against the latter if no action is exerted on the safety lug 24.
  • the nose 5 of the hook exerts through its lower part, on the safety lug 24, an action in the direction of the arrow F2 .
  • the locking finger 25 is mounted movably on an axis 37 of the second face B of the wheel 20, against the spring 27 comprising two ends 38 and 39, one 38 is linked to the locking finger 25, the another 39 is linked to the wheel 20, this connection being represented figuratively in the exploded views 3a, 3b, 3c.
  • FIG. 2 The final position of the wheel 20 after complete closure of the movable door 3 of the microwave oven is shown in FIG. 2.
  • the finger 25 has a hole 40, parallel to the safety pin 24 and which allows the threading on the shaft 37 of the second face B of the wheel 20.
  • the wheel 20 has its fixing shaft 21 rotatably mounted in a hole 42 made in the plate 14.
  • a retaining washer (not shown) fixed on the end of the shaft 21 after its engagement in the hole 42 on the other face (not shown) of the plate 14 allows the axial maintenance of the wheel 20 on the plate 14 leaving a free rotation of said wheel 20 around the shaft 21.
  • Said wheel 20 is limited in its angular displacement, by the hook 4 of the movable door 3 of the microwave oven.
  • the wheel 20 and therefore the first stud 22 are subjected to a rotary drive device comprising a tenon 43 mounted on the second face B of the wheel 20 and placed in alignment with the shaft 29 of the first face A of the wheel 20, said lug 43 passing through a slide 44 produced on the plate 14.
  • the end 45 of the tenon 43 protruding, after assembly of the wheel 20 of the plate 14, is fixed to a first end 46 of a toggle joint 47 with unstable midpoint under the effect of a spring 48 and shown in dotted lines because located on the other face of the plate 14, while a second end 49 passes through a support 50 fixed and integral with the plate 14 and serves as a stop for the spring 48 as well as a bearing slide for the knee lifter 47.
  • the stud 43 of the wheel 20 passes from a first position illustrated at 51 representing the axis of the stud 43 when no action is exerted on the studs 22 and 23 as well as on the safety lug. 24, in a second position illustrated at 52 representing the axis of the post 43 after an action on the aforementioned elements.
  • An arrow 53 shown in the slide 44 describes the rotational movement effected by the lug 43 of the wheel 20 when the locking pin 25 of the wheel 20 is retracted, thus avoiding the abutment against the boss 26 and allowing the continuation of the rotational movement of the wheel 20.
  • Other operating keys can trigger the rotation of the rocker 30 to trigger the switch 15 for operating said oven, for example, a preprogrammed timing device of a microwave oven of the type described, for example, in patent application No. 2,630,613 or an electronic button of a microwave oven, but in these latter cases it is essential to adapt and position adequate mechanisms not shown to operate the device.
  • the device according to the invention is applicable to microwave ovens but can be applied to other devices requiring very reliable security.
