Description

Wäschetrommel für eine Waschmaschine Washing drum for a washing machine
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Wäschetrommel für eine Waschmaschine mit einer nicht vertikal stehenden Drehachse, mit im Trommelmantel einstückig eingeformten, zumThe invention relates to a laundry drum for a washing machine with a non-vertical axis of rotation, with integrally molded in the drum jacket, for
Wäscheaufnahmeraum gerichteten Mitnehmern, deren nach außen gerichteter offene Seiten mittels Verstärkungsblechen überbrückt sind, die sich mit ihrer Breite zumindest über einen Teil der axialen Abmessungen der Wäschetrommel erstrecken und mit den an die offenen Seiten der Wäschemitnehmer anschließenden Außenseitenbereiche des Wäschetrommelmantels fest verbunden sind.Drivers receiving space directed carriers, whose outward-facing open sides are bridged by means of reinforcing plates, the width of which extends at least over a part of the axial dimensions of the laundry drum and are firmly connected to the outer side regions of the laundry drum shell adjoining the open sides of the laundry carriers.
Eine derartige Wäschetrommel ist aus der DE 198 31 274 C1 bekannt. In dieser Druckschrift wird vorgeschlagen und beschrieben, daß solche Verstärkungsbleche über einen Teil der axialen Abmessung der Wäschetrommel sich erstrecken, vorzugsweise in der Mitte der Trommelmantelbreite angebracht sind. Außerdem wird dort vor- geschlagen, daß die Verstärkungsbleche durch jeweils mehrere beabstandete Verbindungsstellen, die im Druckfügeverfahren hergestellt sind, mit den an die offenen Seiten der Wäschemitnehmer anschließenden Außenseitenbereichen des Wäschetrommelmantels fest verbunden sind.Such a laundry drum is known from DE 198 31 274 C1. In this document it is proposed and described that such reinforcement plates extend over part of the axial dimension of the laundry drum, preferably in the middle of the drum shell width. In addition, it is proposed there that the reinforcing plates are firmly connected to the outer side regions of the laundry drum jacket adjoining the open sides of the laundry drivers by a plurality of spaced-apart connection points which are produced by the pressure joining process.
Es hat sich gezeigt, daß ein in der vorgenannten Druckschrift beschriebenes, bevor- zugtes Ausführungsbeispiel den mechanischen Anforderungen bei hohen Schleuderdrehzahlen nicht genügen kann. Zwar werden durch die bekannten Verstärkungsbleche die Mantelzugkräfte, die bei hohen Schleuderdrehzahlen ohne solche Verstärkungsbleche die eingezogenen Mitnehmer aufspreizen würden, für die Stabilität der Wäschetrommel insgesamt gegenüber den Kräften bei so hohen Schleuderdrehzahlen nicht genügen. Selbst die alleinige Verbreiterung der Verstärkungsbleche bis auf die gesamte axiale Abmessung der Wäschetrommel würde diesem Anspruch nicht genügen. Verbindungsstellen, die im Druckfügeverfahren hergestellt sind, reißen bei extrem hohen Mantelzugkräften auf, wie sie bei hohen Schleuderdrehzahlen von mehr als 1.200 U/min auftreten. Ferner wurde gefunden, daß durch die Abdeckung der an die offenen Seiten der Wäschemitnehmer anschließenden Außenseitenbereiche des Wäschetrommelmantels durch die Verstärkungsbleche am gesamten Trommelmantel sehr viel Fläche für Flut- löcher verloren geht, die für einen intensiven Austausch von Lauge zwischen Trommelinnenraum und Laugenbehälter vonnöten sind.It has been shown that a preferred exemplary embodiment described in the aforementioned publication cannot meet the mechanical requirements at high spin speeds. Although the known reinforcement plates, the jacket tensile forces, which would spread the drawn-in carriers at high spin speeds without such reinforcement plates, are not sufficient for the stability of the laundry drum as a whole compared to the forces at such high spin speeds. Even the sole widening of the reinforcement plates down to the entire axial dimension of the laundry drum would not meet this requirement. Joints made using the pressure joining process tear open at extremely high jacket tensile forces, such as occur at high centrifugal speeds of more than 1,200 rpm. Furthermore, it was found that by covering the outer side regions of the laundry drum jacket adjoining the open sides of the laundry drivers by the reinforcement plates on the entire drum jacket, a great deal of space for flood holes are lost which are necessary for an intensive exchange of lye between the drum interior and the tub.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine bekannte Wäschetrommel der eingangs genannten Art so auszugestalten, daß die Anforderungen an die Festigkeit der Wäschetrommel bei Schleuderdrehzahlen von über 1.200 U/min erfüllt werden, andererseits aber die durch Überdeckung der Verstärkungsbleche an Teilen des Trommelmantels verloren gegangene Flutlöcher-Fläche wieder zu gewinnen.The invention has for its object to design a known laundry drum of the type mentioned so that the requirements for the strength of the laundry drum at spin speeds of over 1200 rpm are met, but on the other hand, the flood holes lost by covering the reinforcing plates on parts of the drum jacket - Win space again.
Die vorstehende Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Verstärkungsbleche sich über die gesamte Länge der axialen Abmessung des Wäschetrom- melmantels erstrecken und mittels mehrerer hohlnietartiger Verbindungen an jedem der beiden Außenseitenbereiche mit dem Trommelmantel verbunden sind.The above object is achieved according to the invention in that the reinforcing plates extend over the entire length of the axial dimension of the laundry drum jacket and are connected to the drum jacket by means of several hollow rivet-like connections on each of the two outer side regions.
Die Verbreiterung der Verstärkungsbleche über die gesamte Länge der axialen Abmessung des Wäschetrommelmantels vergrößert die Zahl der möglichen Verbindungsstellen zwischen den Verstärkungsblechen und dem Trommelmantel und die Darstellung der Verbindungsstellen als hohlnietartige Verbindungen fördert den Laugenaustausch durch den Trommelmantel hindurch, weil diese Verbindungen hohle nietenähnliche Durchgangslöcher aufweisen.The widening of the reinforcement plates over the entire length of the axial dimension of the laundry drum shell increases the number of possible connection points between the reinforcement plates and the drum shell and the representation of the connection points as hollow rivet-like connections promotes the exchange of alkali through the drum shell, because these connections have hollow rivet-like through holes.
Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Erfindung sind die hohlnietartigen Verbindungen als Durchstellfügeverbindungen dargestellt und bestehen aus je einer in das Blech des Trommelmantels nach außen tief gezogenen Tulpe mit hinter dem Rand je eines in das Verstärkungsblech gestanzten Loches greifenden aufgeweiteten und flach gedrückten Rändern. Dabei entstehen Durchgangslöcher, deren Außenseiten gratfreie Tulpenaufweitungen enthalten, so dass beim Schleudern die Durchgangslöcher der Durchstellfügeverbindungen überwindende Gewebeteile nicht in Gefahr ge- raten, außerhalb des Trommelmantels an Graten oder Kanten hängen zu bleiben.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the hollow rivet-like connections are shown as through-joint connections and each consist of a tulip which is deeply drawn outward into the sheet of the drum shell with, behind the edge, a widened and flattened edge reaching into the reinforcing sheet of a hole. This creates through holes, the outer sides of which contain burr-free tulip widenings, so that when spinning the through holes of the through-joint connections, tissue parts that overlap do not run the risk of getting caught on ridges or edges outside the drum casing.
In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Wäschetrommel mit einem Mantel, dessen Ränder mit den Bodenscheiben durch eine Rolloder Falznaht verbunden sind, sind die den Rändern des Trommelmantels zugewandten Seiten der Verstärkungsbleche in die Roll- oder Falznaht einbezogen. Durch diese Ausbildung der Erfindung gelingt eine Befestigung der Verstärkungsbleche auch an den Seitenrändern, so dass Mantelzugkräfte nicht alleine in die Mitnehmer überbrük- kender Weise im Mantel weitergeleitet werden, sondern über die Seitenränder und die Roll- oder Falznaht teilweise in die Bodenscheibe abgeleitet werden können.In a particularly preferred embodiment of the laundry drum according to the invention with a jacket, the edges of which are connected to the base plates by a rolled or folded seam, the sides of the reinforcement plates facing the edges of the drum jacket are included in the rolled or folded seam. This embodiment of the invention also enables the reinforcement plates to be fastened to the side edges, so that sheath tensile forces are not bridged into the drivers alone. kender way in the jacket, but can be derived in part on the side edges and the rolled or folded seam in the bottom pane.
Wenn die seitlichen Öffnungen der eingezogenen Mitnehmer von den Bodenscheiben überdeckt werden, empfiehlt sich eine Ausbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Wäschetrom- mel dahingehend, dass im Bereich der Mitnehmer die Roll- oder Falznaht der kreisförmigen Mantelkontur folgt und die Mitnehmer mittels einer eigenen Roll- oder Falznaht an den Rändern je eines der Kontur der Mitnehmer ähnlichen Durchbruches in den Bodenscheiben mit diesen verbunden sind. Dadurch sind einerseits die Seitenränder der eingezogenen Mitnehmer mit der Bodenscheibe verbunden und andererseits die Seitenränder der Verstärkungsbleche an den Bodenscheiben befestigt. Mithin ergibt sich an dieserIf the side openings of the entrained drivers are covered by the floor panes, it is advisable to design the laundry drum according to the invention in such a way that in the area of the drivers the roller or fold seam follows the circular jacket contour and the drivers by means of their own roller or fold seam on the Edges of a breakthrough in the floor panes similar to the contour of the drivers are connected to these. As a result, on the one hand the side edges of the retracted drivers are connected to the base plate and on the other hand the side edges of the reinforcement plates are fastened to the base plates. It follows from this
Befestigungsstelle eine sehr stabile Verbindung, die auch bei großer Walkarbeit in den Bauteilen der Wäschetrommel Aufreißbestrebungen widerstehen kann.Fastening point a very stable connection that can withstand tearing efforts even with large flexing work in the components of the laundry drum.
Eine erfindungsgemäß gestaltete Wäschetrommel, die über einen Tragstern an einer der Bodenscheiben einseitig gelagert ist, kann in besonders vorteilhafter Weise über die vorstehenden Verbindungsmaßnahmen hinaus dadurch noch wesentlich stabilisiert werden, dass die Strahlenenden des Tragsterns mittels Schrauben und in der Kontur den Mitnehmerkonturen angepassten Muttern mit den mantelnahen Bereichen der Bodenscheibe verbunden sind. In besonders vorteilhafter Weise können dabei die Rolloder Falznähte zwischen den Strahlenenden des Tragsterns und den Muttern einge- spannt sein. Diese Form der Befestigung wird auf die Wäschetrommel einwirkendenA laundry drum designed according to the invention, which is supported on one side by a support star on one of the floor disks, can be stabilized in a particularly advantageous manner, in addition to the above connecting measures, in that the beam ends of the support star are screwed and the contour of the driver contours is matched with the nuts areas close to the jacket of the base plate are connected. In a particularly advantageous manner, the roller or fold seams can be clamped between the beam ends of the support star and the nuts. This form of attachment will act on the laundry drum
Kräfte bei Schleuderdrehzahlen selbst weit über 1.200 U/min hinaus standhalten.Withstand forces at spin speeds well above 1,200 rpm.
Dabei ist es noch von Vorteil, wenn die in der Mantellinie und nahe der Roll- oder Falznähte liegenden Bereiche der Verstärkungsbleche ebenfalls mit den Muttern verbunden sind. Dies kann beispielsweise dadurch geschehen, dass die Verstärkungsbleche mittels Schrauben von außerhalb der Mantelkontur her an den Muttern befestigt sind.It is also advantageous if the areas of the reinforcement plates lying in the surface line and close to the roll or fold seams are also connected to the nuts. This can happen, for example, in that the reinforcement plates are fastened to the nuts from outside the jacket contour by means of screws.
In besonders vorteilhafter Weise können die Verstärkungsbleche eine Schöpfwirkung der Wäschemitnehmer dadurch verbessern, dass die Mitnehmer in ihren Firstbereichen Laugenaustrittslöcher und die Verstärkungsbleche in ihren die offenen Seiten bedeckenden Bereichen eingeprägte Kiemen aufweisen. Mittels solcher Kiemen, die aus dem Stand der Technik für Mantelbleche bereits bekannt sind, lassen sich nennenswerte Mengen von Lauge aus den tiefen Bereichen des Laugenbehälters in die Mitnehmer schöpfen, die die geschöpften Laugenmengen beim Weiterdrehen der Trom- mel nach oben mittragen, und dann durch die Laugenaustrittslöcher von oben auf die Wäsche abgeben.In a particularly advantageous manner, the reinforcement plates can improve the scooping effect of the laundry drivers in that the drivers have lye outlet holes in their ridge regions and the reinforcement plates have embossed gills in their regions covering the open sides. By means of such gills, which are already known from the prior art for cladding sheets, significant amounts of alkali can be scooped from the deep areas of the suds container into the drivers, Carry the mel upwards and then pour it onto the laundry through the lye outlet holes.
Der Trommelmantel ist regelmäßig aus einem endlichen Blechband gefertigt, dessen Enden zur Herstellung der zylinderähnlichen Form zu einer Querfalznaht gefügt sind, die ebenfalls geeignet ist, einen Anteil der Mantelzugkräfte zu übertragen. In einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Wäschetrommel überdeckt eines der Verstärkungsbleche eine solche unter einem ihrer Außenseitenbereiche liegende Querfalznaht des Trommelmantels.The drum jacket is regularly made from a finite sheet metal strip, the ends of which are joined to form a transverse fold seam to produce the cylinder-like shape, which is also suitable for transmitting a portion of the jacket tensile forces. In a particularly advantageous embodiment of the laundry drum according to the invention, one of the reinforcement plates covers such a transverse fold seam of the drum jacket which is located under one of its outer side regions.

Der Trommelmantel 1 einer in Fig. 1 teilweise dargestellten Wäschetrommel enthält einen im Trommelmantei einstückig eingeformten, zum Wäscheaufnahmeraum gerichteten Mitnehmer 2 mit in seinem Firstbereich angeordneten Laugenaustrittslöchern 3, die ähnlich tulpenartig geformt sind wie die Flutlöcher 4 im Trommelmantel 1. Diese Flutlöcher sind so dicht wie möglich im gesamten Trommelmantel angeordnet. Der Trommelmantel 1 ist aus einem endlich langen Blech gefertigt, wobei seine freien Enden zu einer QuerfalznahtThe drum jacket 1 of a laundry drum partially shown in FIG. 1 contains a driver 2 molded in one piece in the drum jacket and directed towards the laundry receiving space, with lye outlet holes 3 arranged in its ridge area, which are shaped like a tulip like the flood holes 4 in the drum jacket 1. These flood holes are as tight as possible arranged in the entire drum jacket. The drum shell 1 is made from a finally long sheet, with its free ends forming a transverse seam
5 gebogen und gefügt sind, die den Trommelmantel in einer annähernd zylindrischen Form hält. Diese Querfalznaht 5 ist auch geeignet, einen wesentlichen Teil der Zugkräfte, die beim Schleudern peripher im Trommelmantel verlaufen, aufzunehmen. Damit Zugkräfte, die bei höheren Schleuderdrehzahlen erhebliche Größen annehmen können, den eingezogenen Mitnehmer 2 nicht auffalten können, ist jedem Mitnehmer 2 ein Verstärkungsblech 6 zugeordnet, das die nach außen gerichtete offene Seite des zugeordneten Mitnehmers überbrückt. Dieses Verstärkungsblech ist beiderseits des Mitneh- ' mers mit den anschließenden Außenseitenbereichen 7 des Trommelmantels über mehre- re Verbindungsstellen fest verbunden. Dabei liegt die Querfalznaht 5 in dem einen Außenseitenbereich 7 und wird vom Verstärkungsblech 6 überdeckt. Das Verstärkungsblech5 are bent and joined, which holds the drum shell in an approximately cylindrical shape. This transverse fold seam 5 is also suitable for absorbing a substantial part of the tensile forces which run peripherally in the drum jacket during the spinning. So that tensile forces, which can be considerable at higher spin speeds, cannot unfold the entrained driver 2, each driver 2 is assigned a reinforcing plate 6, which bridges the outwardly open side of the associated driver. This reinforcing plate is firmly connected on both sides of the driver to the adjoining outer side regions 7 of the drum shell via several connection points. In this case, the transverse fold seam 5 lies in the one outside area 7 and is covered by the reinforcement plate 6. The reinforcement plate
6 liegt dabei so eng über der Querfalznaht 5, dass diese gleichzeitig durch das Verstärkungsblech 6 vor dem Aufbiegen geschützt ist, das beim Auftreten von starken Mantelzugkräften entstehen könnte. Außerdem ist dadurch das Verstärkungsblech 6 so stark gespannt, dass keine Dehnung des Verstärkungsbleches bei starken Mantelzugkräften mehr auf die Verbindungsstellen mit auf die Dauer diese Verbindungsstellen lösenden Wechselkräften einwirken können.6 lies so close above the transverse seam 5 that it is at the same time protected by the reinforcement plate 6 from bending open, which could arise when strong jacket tensile forces occur. In addition, the reinforcing plate 6 is thereby tensioned so much that no expansion of the reinforcing plate can act on the connection points with alternating forces that permanently release these connection points when the sheath tensile forces are strong.
Die Verbindungsstellen sind Durchstellfügeverbindungen 8, deren Querschnittsform in Fig. 2 gezeigt ist. Eine solche Durchstellfügeverbindung 8 besteht aus einer in das Blech des Trommelmantels 1 nach außen tief gezogenen Tulpe 9 mit hinter dem Rand je eines in das Verstärkungsblech 6 gestanzten Loches 10 greifenden, aufgeweiteten und flach gedrückten Rand 11. Dabei bildet die Durchstellfügeverbindung 8 ein Durchgangsloch 12, dessen Durchmesser 13 etwa dem der Flutlöcher 4 entspricht. Anstelle der Durchstellfügeverbindungen 8 sind selbstverständlich auch separate Hohlniete verwendbar. Oberhalb der nach außen gerichteten offenen Seiten der Mitnehmer 2 hat das Verstärkungsblech gemäß Fig. 1 und 3 eingeprägte Kiemen 14, die beim Eintauchen der Wäschetrommel in den im unteren Teil des Laugenbehälters angesammelten Laugensumpf in durch den Pfeil 15 angedeuteter Drehrichtung der Trommel erhebliche Mengen von Lauge in den Mitnehmer 2 transportieren (Pfeil 16). Diese Laugenmengen werden vom Mitnehmer 2 beim weiteren Drehen der Wäschetrommel in PfeilrichtungThe connection points are push-through joints 8, the cross-sectional shape of which is shown in FIG. 2. Such a push-through joint 8 consists of a tulip 9 which is deeply drawn outward into the sheet of the drum casing 1 and which has a widened and flattened edge 11 which engages behind the edge of a hole 10 punched into the reinforcing sheet 6. The push-through joint 8 forms a through hole 12, whose diameter 13 corresponds approximately to that of the flood holes 4. Instead of the through-joint connections 8, separate hollow rivets can of course also be used. 1 and 3 have embossed gills 14 which, when the laundry drum is immersed in the suds sump accumulated in the lower part of the suds container in the direction of rotation of the drum indicated by arrow 15, have considerable amounts of alkali transport into carrier 2 (arrow 16). These amounts of lye are removed by the carrier 2 when the laundry drum is rotated further in the direction of the arrow

For this purpose, it has, on the side of the laundry drum facing away from the view in FIG. 1, a base plate which is firmly connected to a supporting star, of which only that in FIG. 1
Strahlenende 17 erkennbar ist. Der (vorzugsweise dreistrahlige) Tragstern ist an seinen Strahlenenden über jeweils eine Schraube 18 und einen Druckgußkörper (Mutter 19), dessen äußere Form der Innenkontur des Mitnehmers 2 angepaßt ist, mit der Bodenscheibe verbunden. Zusätzlich kann das Druckgußstück 19 mittels einer Schraube 20 von der Außenseite des Verstärkungsbleches her mit dem Verstärkungsblech 6 verbunden sein.Beam end 17 can be seen. The (preferably three-beam) support star is connected to the bottom plate at its beam ends by a screw 18 and a die-cast body (nut 19), the outer shape of which is adapted to the inner contour of the driver 2. In addition, the die casting 19 can be connected to the reinforcing plate 6 from the outside of the reinforcing plate by means of a screw 20.
Bei dem in Fig. 4 dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ist die Bodenscheibe 21 in Höhe jedes Mitnehmers 2 mit einem der Kontur des Mitnehmers ähnlichen Durchbruch 22 versehen. Hier ist einerseits der Trommelmantel 1 und das Verstärkungsblech 6 mit der Bo- denscheibe 21 über die Roll- oder Falznaht 23 verbunden. Da das Mantelblech 1 im Bereich des Mitnehmers 2 in Richtung Trommelinnenraum aus der Mantellinie ausweicht, ist der Rand des Mantelbleches 1 im Bereich des Mitnehmers 2 mit dem Rand des Durchbruches 22 zu einer weiteren Roll- oder Falznaht 24 geformt. Fig. 5 und 6 machen deutlich, daß die Roll- oder Falznaht 23 im Bereich des Mitnehmers 2 (Fig. 5) lediglich das Verstärkungsblech 6 und das Blech der Bodenscheibe 21 betrifft, während im Bereich entlang der Schnittlinie VI - VI (Fig. 6) zusätzlich auch das Blech des Trommelmantels 1 in die Falznaht 23 einbezogen ist.In the embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the base plate 21 is provided at the level of each driver 2 with an opening 22 similar to the contour of the driver. Here, on the one hand, the drum jacket 1 and the reinforcing plate 6 are connected to the base plate 21 via the rolled or folded seam 23. Since the jacket sheet 1 in the area of the driver 2 deviates from the jacket line in the direction of the drum interior, the edge of the jacket sheet 1 in the area of the driver 2 is shaped with the edge of the opening 22 to form a further rolled or folded seam 24. 5 and 6 make it clear that the rolled or folded seam 23 in the area of the driver 2 (FIG. 5) only affects the reinforcing plate 6 and the plate of the base plate 21, while in the area along the section line VI - VI (FIG. 6 ) the sheet of the drum casing 1 is also included in the seam 23.
Zusätzlich zu dieser in Fig. 1 dargestellten, an sich schon sehr steifen Verbindungsform zwischen der Bodenscheibe 21 einerseits und dem Blech des Trommelmantels 1 und dem Verstärkungsblech 6 andererseits kann auch hier in den Mitnehmer 2 ein Druckgußstück 19 gemäß Fig. 1 sowohl mit dem Verstärkungsblech 6 wie auch mit einem Strahlenende 17 eines Tragsterns verbunden werden, der in Fig. 4 von vorn an der Bodenscheibe 21 anliegt. Dabei kann beispielsweise die Roll- oder Falznaht 24 in den Klemmbereich zwischen dem Druckgrußstück 19 und dem Strahlenende 17 des Tragsterns ge- langen und durch festen Anzug der Schraube 18 zwischen den beiden Bauteilen gegenIn addition to the connection form between the base plate 21, on the one hand, and the sheet of the drum casing 1 and the reinforcing plate 6, which is already very rigid, shown in FIG. 1, a pressure casting 19 according to FIG. 1 can also be inserted into the driver 2 here, both with the reinforcing plate 6 as can also be connected to a beam end 17 of a supporting star, which in FIG. 4 lies against the base plate 21 from the front. In this case, for example, the rolled or folded seam 24 can enter the clamping area between the pressure casting 19 and the beam end 17 of the support star and can be tightened between the two components by tightening the screw 18
Aufspreizen gesichert sein. Zur Vermeidung des Ausfließens von durch die Kiemen 14 geschöpfter Lauge durch die nicht vom Tragstern oder vom Blech der Bodenscheibe 21 abgedeckten seitlichen Durchbrüche 22 der Mitnehmer 2 können in diese Durchbrüche nicht dargestellte Kunststoffkappen eingerastet werden. Spreading be secured. To avoid the leakage of lye drawn through the gills 14 through the lateral openings 22 of the driver 2 not covered by the supporting star or the sheet metal of the base plate 21, plastic caps (not shown) can be snapped into these openings.
