Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Hebemechanismus für eine federunterstützte Betätigung eines Abdeckmittels einer Spülmaschine wie Haube, Tor und Klappe, mit wenigstens einem an einer Welle gelagerten Hebel, der mit einer Zugfeder verbunden ist. Hierbei ist zwischen dem Hebel (10) und der Feder (22) ein mechanisches Steuermittel (16) angeordnet, das einen annähernd konstanten Hebelarm (E1) zwischen einem Anlenkpunkt (15, 21) der Feder (22) und der Welle (8) über einen Drehwinkel der Welle (9) von bis zu etwa 100° bewirkt.

The invention relates to a lifting mechanism for spring-assisted actuation of a cover means of a dishwasher such as a hood, gate and flap, with at least one lever mounted on a shaft, which is connected to a tension spring. A mechanical control means (16) is arranged between the lever (10) and the spring (22), which controls an approximately constant lever arm (E1) between an articulation point (15, 21) of the spring (22) and the shaft (8) causes an angle of rotation of the shaft (9) of up to about 100 °.
