Definitions

  • This invention concerns a device for slidably-partingly mounting the lining panel on the door of an embedded household appliance, in particular a dish-washer machine.
  • an object of this invention to provide an embedded household appliance door lining panel mounting device, in particular for a dish-washer machine, which enables a combined sliding-parting motion to take place, when opening said door.
  • the above object is met by providing at least a small plate, fastened in the area of the lower side of said panel, carrying the end of a small fork-shaped link or lever pivoted thereon, which has the opposite end freely engageable by a hook correspondingly fastened on the appliance door.
  • the opening of the door through a downward tilting around the bottom hinges causes the panel to part from said door while the lever turns and comes to a position perpendicular to the confronting surfaces of the panel and door, with a simultaneous forward sliding motion of said panel, permitted by the known type upper guides.
  • the latter are provided with a stop or limit means which naturally prevents an exaggerated sliding motion and unhooking of the mounting lever.
  • an embedded household appliance door which is pivoted at the bottom edge thereof in a known way by means of hinges (not shown), typically although not necessarily a dish-washer door.
  • a panel preferably solid wood, provided for completely lining and covering door A.
  • a device schematically shown at 4 as a sliding-rolling support, comprising for instance a guide means within which a pin 4a may slide and rotate only in the sliding plane, being fastened to the top portion of panel B. Then, the engagement 4-4a provides two degrees of freedom only in the plane of the drawing.
  • a single support 3 on the lower side of panel B there is fastened at least a single support 3, and preferably a pair of metal plates, each of which carries pivoted thereon end 2a of a lever or small link 2 whose body is provided with a through opening, not shown in the drawings, located between said end 2a and the opposite free end 2b, and having preferably a cylindrical shape whose centerline runs transverse to the longer dimension of said lever, and parallel to the pivoting axis of fulcrum 2a.
  • door A For each member 2, door A carries correspondingly fastened thereon, a hook 1 provided with an upwards facing hooking member.
  • panel B is assembled on door A by first subjecting said panel to a traversing motion, shown schematically by arrow ⁇ , in order to insert hook 1 through lever 2 whereby free end 2b of the latter may be freely received within the U-shaped seat provided by said hook.
  • Panel B is then made to perform a pivoting motion shown schematically by arrow ⁇ to hook it at the upper portion thereof by means of pin 4a within guide means 4, or rolling-sliding support 4.
  • the inventive device free from springs or any other means inducing a compression force between the two members, provides the inventive device with a safety feature, in that the user is protected from the risk of having his/her fingers pinched if left inadvertently between the door and the panel, or between the latter and a stationary member of the machine, while the sliding motion along direction Y is taking place. In both cases the parting motion promptly takes place, possibly supported by the force of gravity, and it causes the panel to move apart from the dish-washer door, thereby preventing possible accidents as mentioned above.
