Definitions

  • the invention relates to an aperture, in particular for household appliances.
  • control elements in the narrower sense, in addition to realizing the actual function, it is also necessary to equip the elements with a corresponding control symbol that informs and guides the user. This is attached to the control panel.
  • the screen must be scratch, impact and break resistant, solvent and heat resistant, it should be easy to manufacture and assemble and its manufacturing costs should be as low as possible. In addition, it should not restrict the creative freedom of the industrial designer and convey a high-quality look for the end customer. In the latter context, panels with a “showcase effect” are preferred, above all, for devices in the upper price ranges.
  • the screens that have become known so far can be classified as follows.
  • the operating symbols are printed directly from the operator side onto the panel carrier.
  • the operating symbols are printed on a carrier film, which is glued into or slightly recessed into the panel carrier.
  • control symbols are printed behind a transparent material such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) or polycarbonate (PC), which creates the aforementioned showcase effect.
  • PMMA polymethyl methacrylate
  • PC polycarbonate
  • full-surface coverage in the form of a further component or a flat color application with barrier printing is required.
  • PMMA or PC transparent cover
  • Inexpensive forms of presentation such as those in sections 1 and 2, are not sufficiently resilient mechanically and chemically. In addition, they are visually unappealing, which is why they are mainly used in inexpensive devices.
  • the carrier component is designed as a panel carrier. This results in the application of the operating symbols and the layer for producing the showcase effect on the component which is already present, so that additional components can be saved. Under certain conditions, however, it is preferred to design the carrier component as a carrier film. These flat carrier foils are very easy to handle and transport, so that the printing and coating can be outsourced if necessary.
  • Fig. 1 shows a complete panel of a washing machine in front view
  • FIG. 2 shows a top view of the panel from FIG. 1;
  • Fig. 3 shows a cross section of the panel of Figure 1;
  • FIG. 4 shows an enlarged detail of the diaphragm cross section from FIG. 3;
  • Fig. 5 shows a panel for a stove in a front view
  • FIG. 6 shows a cross section of the diaphragm from FIG. 4.
  • FIG. 1 A complete screen of a washing machine is shown in FIG. 1 under reference number 1.
  • This has conventional controls such as a shell handle 2, pressure switch 3 and rotary switch 4.
  • the switch 3 or the shafts of the rotary switches 4 are introduced at the corresponding locations of the aperture 1 circular holes or rectangular openings.
  • Operating symbols 5 are provided in the vicinity of the individual operating elements 2, 3, 4 for user guidance.
  • these operating symbols 5 are applied directly to the panel support 6, which can be seen in FIG. 2, by conventional printing methods. Since the panel support 6 is colored white, for example, it provides sufficient background for the operating symbols 5. An at least translucent, for example slightly tinted, but preferably transparent coating 7 is applied to the entire panel support 6 and thus also to the control symbols 5 applied to it.
  • This coating 7 consists of polyurethane (PUR) casting compound, which e.g. with the help of a two-component dosing and mixing system and a CNC linear robot is applied in traces to the panel support 6.
  • PUR polyurethane
  • Adhesive and cohesive forces alone result in a defined and reproducible decrease in the layer thickness 7 towards the openings, as can be seen at reference number 8 in FIG.
  • the PUR material produces a scratch-resistant surface.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 Another embodiment is shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the same parts having the same reference numbers.
  • the operating symbols 5 have been printed on a carrier film 9 shown in FIG.
  • This carrier film 9 can e.g. 0.5 mm thick, colored and punched out. Then it is covered with PUR potting compound as described. The coated carrier film 9 is then attached to the panel carrier, e.g. glued to this.
  • openings 10 are provided in the panel support 6 (or the film 9) for light-emitting diodes or other display devices not shown here, or below, it is possible to cast these openings with the coating 7 made of PUR potting compound. This is to be understood to mean that the coating 7 is also formed in the region of the openings 10 or that the openings 10 are completely or partially filled.
  • the advantage of the aperture described is therefore that a high-quality coating of PU potting compound that creates a showcase effect is applied, which, due to its properties, is self-distributed on the underlying carrier (aperture carrier or carrier film). There is no need for time-consuming drilling and milling work for each new type, so that the panels can be designed very flexibly.
  • the invention described above is not only limited to the field of household appliances, but can also be used in other areas of application in which a high-quality optical and / or low-wear design is important. For example, use with control panels of high-quality industrial systems is conceivable.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une façade destinée notamment à des appareils électroménagers, comprenant un support, des symboles de commande appliqués sur la face avant du support et un revêtement transparent constitué de matière coulable de polyuréthanne, appliqué sur le support et les symboles. Il est ainsi possible d'obtenir facilement et de façon peu onéreuse une façade esthétique de qualité (à effet vitrine).
