Definitions
- the invention relates to a securing element for on a panel support of a household appliance pivotally arranged actuators.
- pivotable actuators a dishwasher e.g. a handle cover
- pivot elements assigned to them e.g. Bolts the in bearing elements grip on the panel support, swiveling on the panel support arranged, the bolts after mounting the handle cover secured by squeezing in their bearing elements
- the disadvantage of this type of backup is that in this way the pivoting elements and thus the actuating elements are inseparably connected to the panel support, so that when servicing, the entire panel support and not only defective actuators must be replaced.
- a dishwasher arranged actuator preferably a Grip cover
- pivoting elements provided for this, e.g. bolt engaging in a bearing element, pivotable arranged on the panel support.
- the bolt engages a bearing element assigned to it, which on the panel support or is arranged on the handle cover and thereby forms a hinge.
- the hinge enables the pivoting movement of the actuating element, in particular that of the handle cover.
- the handle cover is pivoted by manual intervention in this and acts on the unlocking mechanism the door.
- the pivoting elements are preferably secured by a spring element which is in the immediate vicinity of the pivoting elements is arranged.
- the spring element essentially takes an assembly position or a securing position. In the safety position the spring prevents unintentional loosening the pivoting elements against each other by at least one the interlocking pivoting elements directly or indirectly serves as a stop. In the assembly position it works Spring no longer as a stop on the interlocking pivoting elements, thus e.g. the bolt from its bearing element and thus the handle cover removed from the panel support become. In addition to being releasable, such a safeguard has the further advantage that compared to the known solution the safety function is not in an additional assembly step must be introduced, so that a cost reduction is reached.
- the spring element takes a largely in the securing position reduced-voltage condition, which is free of manual applied tension, certain tensions, e.g. by the adjacent actuating element or the adjacent pivoting elements cannot be avoided.
- certain tensions e.g. by the adjacent actuating element or the adjacent pivoting elements cannot be avoided.
- around the spring element to put the safety position in the assembly position and so that the stop function of the spring element on pivoting or give up actuators is one on the spring element acting force, e.g. by manually bending them.
- the overall design parameters of the spring element are like this designed that the transfer of the spring from the securing position repeatable in the assembly position and vice versa is so that an actuator multiple times individually exchanged or several times during its assembly process Position can be corrected.
- Bending springs are preferred for that used material plastic, especially for its Processing in the injection molding is rather unsuitable because of the manufacturing technology more complex and expensive to manufacture.
- the leaf spring has at least one leg, in principle several legs are conceivable, these make the production of the Spring element with the aperture support, however, more complicated and more expensive, so a leaf spring leg is preferably arranged is.
- the kink of the leaf spring leg lies between the legs Clamping point and its other free end piece.
- the material used for the spring element be, this by reinforcing materials, fillers, Auxiliaries, aging hammers and / or stabilizers are carried out.
- the handle cover is a large-volume actuating element with appropriate mass, which is related to a vertical Center line is symmetrical, it makes sense to provide two hinges that are also symmetrical to each other lie and runs through an axis around which the pivoting movement of the handle cover. Since both Hinges are spaced from each other, each of these must pass through One spring element each is secured to prevent accidental Loosen the handle cover by violent manual intervention to prevent in this.
- FIG. 1 shows the detail of a panel support 1, which is in the upper Area of a dishwasher door is arranged on which Actuating element a handle cover 2 is pivotally arranged is.
- the handle cover 2 has two guide webs on the side 3, each receiving a bolt 4 at one end and each in a provided on the panel support 1 Intervene bearing element 5.
- Form bolt 4 and bearing elements 5 in this embodiment, the pivoting elements, which through to a vertical center line, not shown the handle cover 2 are symmetrically opposite each other. Through the connecting line of the center points of both bolts 4 runs the pivot axis of the handle cover 2, wherein the pivoting takes place in the direction of arrow 14.
- a spring element 6 is arranged in the immediate Close to the swivel elements and in direct contact on the invisible clamping points of the bolt 4 in the Guide webs 3 of the handle cover 2 is in the pivot axis lying and on both sides of the handle cover .
- the spring elements 6 are located yourself in the securing position, this in the graphic 1 can only be seen on the left spring element 6 is.
- the spring elements 6 are also designed as a leaf spring 6a, this being shown more clearly in FIGS. 2 and 3 is.
- the leaf springs 6a are with the aperture support 1 executed in one piece.
- the leaf spring 6a has a leaf spring leg 9 with a Bend 9a. Due to the kink 9a Leaf spring legs 9 from the back of the front facing surface 10 of the panel support 1 spaced differently.
- the clamping point 11 of the leaf spring 6a is located the back of the front facing surface 10 of the aperture support 1, seen from here, the bend 9a of the Leaf spring legs from the back of the front facing surface 10 of the panel support 1 away.
- a recess 12 of this type provided that this the leaf spring leg 9 in the Mounting position.
- the end piece of the leaf spring leg 9a serves the bolt 4 (visible in Fig.1) receiving guide web 3 as a stop and thus secures the pivoting elements, bolts 4 and bearing element 5, and thus the handle cover 2 against accidental To solve.
- the cross section of the leaf spring leg, not shown 9 is almost rectangular, the shorter side of this Rectangle across the length of the leaf spring leg one side surface the leaf spring 6a, which partially strikes the stop and thus the contact surface to the guide web 3 in the area the bend 9a forms.
- the free end piece of the leaf spring leg 9 is rounded off.
- FIG. 3 shows a section as in FIG. 2, the leaf spring 6a in. assembly position is pressed. To maintain the assembly position a force must continue to be exerted on the leaf spring 6a, represented by arrow 13, are exercised because after releasing otherwise the leaf spring 6a automatically sets itself in the securing position back.
- the mounting position of the leaf spring 6a enables loosening the pivoting elements, bolt 4 (visible in Fig.1) and bearing element 5, and thus the handle cover 2 from the panel holder 1.
- the handle cover 2 is used for assembly on the panel support 1, first on its receiving the bolts 4 Guide bars 3 pressed inwards, the insertion of the Bolt 4 into the provided bearing elements 5 on the panel support 1 takes place with the leaf spring 6a pressed down in the assembly position, the bolts 4 fit in their bearing elements 5 can release the guide webs 3 and the leaf springs 6a and the leaf springs 6a move automatically into the securing position.
- the spring element 6 or 6a can form material modifications of reinforcing materials and / or stabilizers and / or auxiliary substances and / or aggregates and / or aging hammers have, with all other designed construction parameters an even better long-term functional stability and Ensure the functional reliability of the spring element 6 or 6a.
- the bolts 4 on Panel support 1 and the bearing elements 5 on the handle cover 2 are arranged or the direction of the joining of the pivoting elements is chosen differently, the spring 6 or 6a is in to arrange these cases as a stop, the arrangement is to be selected so that it releases the pivoting elements, which can be equipped in one or more parts, prevented.
- Pivoting elements bolt 4, bearing element 5
