Definitions

  • the invention relates to a drum-type washing machine that can be loaded at the end Housing, with a drum rotatably arranged within a tub, wherein between the housing and the tub around its loading opening Bellows seal extends, and with a lighting device for illuminating the Washing drum interior, in which an electric lamp in one extends through the wall of the Bellows seal extending protective hollow body is arranged.
  • Such a washing machine is known for example from DE 38 43 385 A1 DE 41 26 966 A1 or known from DE 297 17 295 U1.
  • the protective hollow body should protect the lamp from moisture.
  • the washing liquid must pass through Avoid the tub inside the housing in the area of the protective hollow body become. For this reason, they are firmly attached to the bellows seal in the known washing machines connected.
  • the life of the washing machine is the life of the electrical Lamp exceeds the lighting device, there is a need to switch the lamp switch.
  • the housing of the Washing machine can be opened.
  • the protective hollow body extends to the front wall of the washing machine and is accessible from there through an opening that is covered by a protective cap.
  • the invention poses the problem of a washing machine of the type mentioned reveal, in which the lamp of the lighting device is replaced in a simple manner can be.
  • the protective hollow body is one of the Has loading opening releasable part, after removal of the electric lamp can be replaced without opening the housing.
  • the advantages achievable with the invention result from the easy access to the Lamp from the tub inside. This allows the user of the washing machine to open it replace easily and without tools.
  • the connection of the detachable part with the fixed part of the protective hollow body can advantageously with the interposition of a Sealing is carried out so that moisture can penetrate from the tub into the interior of the housing is avoided.
  • the protective hollow body comprises a fixed to the Bellows seal connected lamp housing and one towards the inside of the tub from the lamp housing detachable receptacle, which in the ready-to-use condition Contains lamp.
  • the lamp can then be removed with the sleeve and the replacement process is carried out outside the washing machine. This will prevent the When the lamp is replaced, it falls into the tub and is destroyed there, which in turn because of broken glass to damage the laundry or soft tissues in the Drain system leads.
  • the lamp housing is the electrical contacting device Lamp.
  • the bellows seal with the lighting device as Assembly unit are prefabricated.
  • Drum washing machines are arranged on the lighting device by switching means the program control of the drum washing machine the connection of the detachable part can be signaled with the fixed part of the protective hollow body. This can be guaranteed that the washing machine only with the screw cap or Receiving sleeve, d. that is, with the bellows sealed. The user can be displayed in a simple manner if it does so after removing the lamp Has forgotten to insert the new one.
  • FIG 1 is the front wall of the housing of an end face, not shown loadable drum washing machine, which has a circular loading opening having.
  • the loading opening is through a pot-like porthole window (not shown) can be closed tightly in the usual manner.
  • the circular loading opening for the washing drum (3) is one hose-like bellows seal (4) surround the one hand on the tub (2) and on the other hand is attached to the front wall (1) and a liquid-tight transition forms between these two parts.
  • the lighting device for illuminating or illuminating the Wash drum interior provided.
  • the lighting device consists of a Lamp housing (5) and one detachably arranged therein toward the loading opening Receiving sleeve (6) which receives an electric lamp (7).
  • the lamp housing (5) is in a shaft (8) arranged in the bellows seal (4) is kept tight and is on its back closed by a lid (9). It is provided with a web (10) which is guided in a groove in the shaft (not shown) and thus a precise installation enables (see Figure 4).
  • a lamp housing base (5a) divides the lamp housing (5) into one area facing the loading opening, which receives the receiving sleeve (6), and one part facing away from the loading opening, in which a part shown in FIG electrical contacting device in the form of a printed circuit board (11) is arranged. This area is closed by a lid (9) (see FIG. 6) and thus from moisture and mechanical Action on the circuit board (11), protected.
  • a lid (9) see FIG. 6) and thus from moisture and mechanical Action on the circuit board (11), protected.
  • FIG. 2 shows the lighting device in an exploded view.
  • the receiving sleeve (6) consists of a transparent lens part (6) and a base holder (15), which together can be locked.
  • the base holder (15) serves to hold the lamp (7), which is designed as a pin base lamp.
  • the base holder (15) serves to hold the lamp (7), which is designed as a pin base lamp.
  • the base holder (15) serves to hold the lamp (7), which is designed as a pin base lamp.
  • two bores (not shown) through which the contact pins (16) be performed.
  • Two support walls (17) secure the lamp (7) against tilting to the side and thus prevent the contact pins (16) from breaking off.
  • To the bottom of the base holder (15) a pin (18) is formed, the function of which will be explained later.
  • the unit receiving sleeve (6) - lamp (7) is through a bayonet lock in the lamp housing (5) held.
  • Bayonet pins (19) are integrally formed and the casing (6a) of the lens part (6) has two bayonet guides (20) (see Figure 3).
  • the receptacle (6, 15)) is so by simply unscrewing removable towards the loading opening.
  • the width dimensions of the bayonet pins (19) are different and the width of the bayonet guides (20) is designed so that the wider guidance over the wide pin, the narrow guide over the narrow pin, but cannot be guided over the wide pen. This ensures that the Receiving sleeve (6, 15) is always inserted in the correct position.
  • the distance from The lamp housing base (5a) to the upper edge of the bayonet pins is greater than the free length of the Contact pins (16) outside the receiving sleeve (6, 15) so that the pin (18) is touched and the contact pins (16) with the lamp housing base (5a) outside the ones provided Recesses (12a, 12b) is prevented.
  • the centering ring (13) and the centering cam (14) serve to guide the rotary movement during the manufacture of the bayonet lock.
  • the resilient contacts (21, 22) are not about shown conductor tracks to a connector (23) and by means of a connector (not shown) via connection cable (not shown) with the microprocessor control (not shown) connected to the washing machine.
  • Side contact 21a carries current
  • side contact 21b is grounded
  • the switch contact (22) is connected to a signal input Microprocessor control.
  • the switch contact (22) is connected to the current-carrying side contact 21a connected.
  • the microprocessor control then receives on Signal input a current signal and recognizes that the receiving sleeve (6, 15) is not in the Lamp housing (5) is located.
