Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Haushaltmaschine zum Waschen oder Trocknen von Wäsche mit einer im oberen Bereich angeordneten Schublade für die Aufnahme von Waschmitteln oder Kondensat und mit einer vorn an der Schublade befestigten dreidimensionalen Griffplatte, die an ihrer Vorderseite eine Griffmulde enthält, über die ein im rückwärtigen Hohlraum der Griffplatte angeordneter und durch eine Feder in Raststellung gehaltener Riegel erreichbar ist, der mit einer Riegelkante in Verriegelungsstellung hinter eine Rastkante am Gehäuse greift.The invention relates to a household machine for washing or drying laundry a drawer arranged in the upper area to hold detergents or Condensate and with a three-dimensional handle plate attached to the front of the drawer contains a recessed grip on its front, over which one in the rear cavity of the grip plate arranged and can be reached by a spring held in the latch, which engages with a locking edge in the locking position behind a locking edge on the housing.
Derartige Haushaltmaschinen sind geläufig und im Verkehr stark verbreitet. Man hat versucht, an solchen Maschinen Sicherungseinrichtungen zur Vermeidung der Benutzung der Maschinen überhaupt oder auch an Waschmaschinen zur Benutzung der Schublade einer Waschmitteleinspüleinrichtung durch fremde bzw. nicht autorisierte Personen anzubringen. Hauptzielrichtung der Personen sind vor allem Kinder; weshalb solche Einrichtungen allgemein auch als Kindersicherungen bekannt sind.Such household machines are common and widely used in traffic. You tried safety devices on such machines to avoid the use of the machines at all or on washing machines to use the drawer of a detergent dispenser to be installed by foreign or unauthorized persons. Main thrust the people are mainly children; which is why such facilities are generally used as child safety devices are known.
Indes sind alle bisherigen Vorschläge für solche Kindersicherungen in irgend einer Weise unbefriedigend. So ist die aus der DE 31 01 745 A1 bekannte, gattungsgemäße Kindersicherung en einer Waschmittelschublade deshalb unbefriedigend, weil sie einerseits zu einfach überwindbar und andererseits zu kompliziert außer Kraft setzbar ist.However, all previous proposals for such child safety devices are unsatisfactory in some way. So is the generic child safety device known from DE 31 01 745 A1 A detergent drawer is unsatisfactory because it is too easy to overcome and on the other hand it is too complicated to override.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, bei einer Maschine der eingangs genannten Art die Sicherung so zu gestalten, dass sie nicht auf kindlich einfache Weise überwindbar aber doch für Erwachsene durchschnittlicher Intelligenz ohne komplizierte Handgriffe außer Kraft setzbar ist.The invention is based, in a machine of the type mentioned the task To design security in such a way that it cannot be overcome in a childishly simple way but nevertheless for Adults of average intelligence can be overridden without complicated manipulations.
Erfindungsgemäß wird die Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, dass die Griffplatte während des Betriebs der Maschine in einer Ausnehmung einer wenigstens annähernd flächenbündig mit der Vorderseite der Maschine angeordneten Bedienblende eingefügt ist und dass am Rahmen der Ausnehmung eine mit dem Riegel zusammenarbeitende Rastkante angebracht ist und der Riegel durch eine Arretiereinrichtung außerhalb der Raststellung gehalten werden kann, wenn ein Arretierschieber der Arretiereinrichtung in einer Arretierstellung steht. Durch die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung mehrer miteinander in Funktionsverbindung stehender Elemente ist die Überwindung einer Sperre des Zugangs zur Waschmittelschublade durch Kinder nicht mehr ohne weiteres möglich. Andererseits können Bedienungspersonen durchschnittlicher Intelligenz die Arretierung ohne Anstrengung und ohne Zuhilfenahme von Werkzeugen außer Kraft setzen. According to the invention the object is achieved in that the handle plate during operation the machine in a recess at least approximately flush with the front the machine arranged control panel is inserted and that on the frame of the recess a locking edge cooperating with the bolt is attached and the bolt can be held by a locking device outside the locking position when a locking slide the locking device is in a locking position. By the invention The arrangement of several elements that are functionally connected to one another is overcoming children are no longer free from access to the detergent drawer further possible. On the other hand, average intelligence operators can Override locking without effort and without the use of tools.
In einer besonders vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist der Riegel mit einer Handhabe fest verbunden, die zur Vorderseite der Griffplatte hindurchragt. Die griffgünstig angeordnete Handhabe erleichtert sowohl die jeweils einmalige Überwindung der Verrastung der Schublade wie auch die dauerhafte Außerkraftsetzung der Arretierung.In a particularly advantageous development of the invention, the bolt is equipped with a Handle firmly connected, which protrudes to the front of the handle plate. The handy arranged handle both facilitates the one-time overcoming of the latching the drawer as well as the permanent override of the lock.
In einer konstruktiv einfach zu gestaltenden Form der erfindungsgemäßen Maßnahme greift der Riegel mit einem Halterastelement in eine Gegenrast am Arretierschieber ein, wenn sich sowohl der Riegel in nicht rastender Position als auch der Arrierschieber in arretierender Postion befinden. Dadurch kommt die Gestaltung der Kindersicherung mit maximal drei zusätzlichen Bauteilen aus - Riegel, Feder und Arretierschieber.In a constructively simple form of the measure according to the invention the latch engages with a retaining catch element in a counter-catch on the locking slide, if both the bolt in the non-latching position and the locking slide in locking position. This means that the design of the child lock comes along A maximum of three additional components - latch, spring and locking slide.
Durch eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausformung der erfindungsgemäßen Maschine, in der die Feder Bestandteil des aus Kunststoff bestehenden Riegels ist, wobei ein Teil des Riegels, der sich an einer Gegenlage der Griffplatte abstützt, längenelastisch gestaltet ist, kann ein weiteres Mal auf ein Bauteil verzichtet werden, nämlich auf die Feder, die dann durch das längenelastische Teil des Riegels ersetzt wird. Dann sind nur noch zwei zusätzliche, einfach gestaltete und zu montierende Teile für die Realisierung der Aufgabe erforderlich.By a further advantageous embodiment of the machine according to the invention, in which the Spring is part of the plastic bolt, with part of the bolt, which is supported on a counter surface of the handle plate, is designed to be length-elastic one more time without a component, namely the spring, which then the length-elastic part of the bar is replaced. Then there are only two more simply designed and assembled parts required for the realization of the task.

Die in Fig. 1 dargestellte Waschmaschine hat oberhalb einer frontseitigen Einfüllöffnung 1
eine Bedienblende 2, neben der die Ausnehmung für eine Waschmittelschublade 3, hier
nur schematisch angedeutet, angeordnet ist. Die Waschmittelschublade 3 hat vorn eine
Griffplatte 4, die in der Regel der Form und dem Design der Bedienblende 2 angepasst
ist und häufig auch Griffplatte genannt wird. An einer griffgünstigen Stelle der Griffplatte
4 ist eine Griffmulde 5 angebracht, die etwas hinter die Front zurückweicht, damit
die Finger einer Bedienungsperson darin Platz haben. Vor den oberen Bereich der Griffmulde
5 ist eine Abdeckplatte 6 gesetzt, damit schließlich die Finger der Bedienungsperson
dahinter griefen können, um an der Griffplatte 4 bzw. an der Abdeckplatte 6 die
Waschmittelschublade 3 heraus ziehen zu können.The washing machine shown in FIG. 1 has a
In Fig. 2 ist die Waschmittelschublade 3, immer noch schematisch dargestellt, vergrößert
und aus der Ausnehmung heraus genommen gezeigt. Außerdem ist hier die Abdeckplatte
vor der Griffmulde 5 entfernt, so dass eine ansonsten hinter der Abdeckplatte 6 (Fig. 1)
verborgene Handhabe 7 erkennbar ist, die seitlich verschiebbar betätigt werden kann und
dabei einen hinter der Griffplatte 4 gelagerten Riegel 8 (Fig. 5) betätigt, wie weiter unten
noch ausgeführt wird. Dieser Riegel 8 kann ― wie Fig. 5 bei völlig entfernter Waschmittelschublade
3 erkennen lässt ― in einer nach rechts geschobenen Lage bei völlig eingeschobener
Waschmittelschublade 3 hinter eine Rastkante 9 einer Falle 14 fassen und so
die Waschmittelschublade 3 in der eingefahrenen Position arretieren. Dann ist die
Waschmittelschublade 3 für nicht autorisierte Personen unzugänglich, d. h. die Kindersicherung
ist wirksam.In Fig. 2, the
Damit der Riegel 8 in dieser oder einer nicht arretierenden Position gehalten werden
kann, ist hinter der Griffplatte 4 (Fig. 3) ein Arretierschieber 10 angeordnet, dessen Funktion
zusammen mit den übrigen Funktionen auch des Riegels 8 anhand Fig. 4 und 6 erläutert
wird.So that the
In Fig. 4 ist die Griffplatte 4 von hinten gezeigt. Die Griffmulde wird durch eine von hinten
sichtbare, oben offene Schale 11 gebildet, über deren Öffnung die Handhabe 7 für den
Riegel 8 erkennbar ist. Der Riegel 8 ist beidseitig in schlitzförmigen Ausnehmungen 12
(Fig. 6) von kastenförmigen Schubführungen 13 gelagert. Manche Bauteile, wie diese
Schubführungen 13, sind wegen ihrer dünnen Wandstärken nur mit dicken Linien anstelle
von Doppellinien gezeichnet, um die Übersichtlichkeit zu verbessern. An der in Fig. 4 linken
Seite (von vorn betrachtet an der der rechten Seite) des Randes der Griffplatte 4 ragt
der Riegel 8 ein kleines Stück heraus. Dort befindet sich eine im Rahmen der Ausnehmung
angeordnete Falle 14 mit der Rastkante 9, hinter die das heraus ragende Stück des
Riegels 8 fallen kann, wenn er durch die Kraft der Feder 15, die zwischen einem Arm 16
des Riegels 8 und einer Gegenlage 17 an der Griffplatte 4 eingespannt ist, auf die Falle
14 hin geschoben wird. In Fig. 4 the
Auf seiner großen Länge wird der Riegel 8 einerseits durch eine obere Begrenzung 18
der Griffmulde 5 und andererseits durch die Gegenlage 17 und eine weitere an der Griffplatte
4 befestigte Führungslasche 19 geführt, so dass etwa über die Handhabe 7 eingeleitete
Querkräfte den Riegel 8 nicht verbiegen können.On its long length, the
In Fig. 4 rechts von der rechten Schubführung 13 ist der Arretierschieber 10 mittels seiner
Grifflasche 20 in Pfeilrichtung verschieblich und mittels Lagerteilen 21 der Griffplatte 4
längsgeführt gelagert. Die Pfeile am Arretierschieber 10 und am Riegel 8 deuten je nach
Füllung an, in welcher Richtung geschoben werden muss, um das Element in Riegel-
bzw. Arretierposition zu bringen. Ausgefüllt bedeutet die Riegel- bzw. Arretierposition, leer
bedeutet die freie Position.In Fig. 4 to the right of the
Der Riegel 8 hat an seinem rechten, den Arretierschieber 10 an einem Durchbruch 22
durchdringenden Ende eine Kerbe 23, die mit einer Fahne 24 am Arretierschieber 10 zusammenwirkt,
wenn der Riegel 8 in diese Position geschoben worden ist und diese Fahne
24 durch Bewegung des Arretierschiebers 10 nach oben in die Kerbe 23 gelangt ist. In
dieser Position wird der Riegel 8 gegen die Kraft der Feder 15 gehalten und kann dann
nicht mehr hinter die Rastkante 9 greifen, so dass die Waschmittelschublade 3 frei einund
ausschiebbar ist.The
Zum Einrichten der Kindersicherung ist daher der Arretierschieber 10 wieder in die untere
Position zu ziehen, so dass die Fahne 24 außer Eingiff mit der Kerbe 23 des Riegels 8
gelangt und dieser wieder kraft seiner Feder 15 in die Verriegelungsposition fällt. Dabei
überragt er mit seinem in Fig. 4 linken Ende die Außenkante der Griffplatte 4, wird beim
Einschieben der Waschmittelschublade 3 in die Ausnehmung durch eine Auflauffläche an
der Falle 14 gegen den Federdruck kurzzeitig in die Griffplatte 4 zurück geschoben und
fällt danach hinter die Rastkante 9 der Falle 14, womit die Waschmittelschublade 3 in der
geschlossenen Position verriegelt ist.To set up the child lock, the
Zum jeweils einmaligen Öffnen der Waschmittelschublade 3 genügt einer versierten Person
die rechtzeitig vor der Zugbewegung auszuführende Entriegelung des Riegels 8 aus
der Rastkante 9. Nach Loslassen der Handhabe 7 fällt der Riegel 8 sofort wieder in die
gefederte Riegelposition zurück, und beim nächsten Einschieben der Waschmittelschublade
3 erreicht er automatisch wieder die Riegellage.One experienced person is sufficient to open the
Soll die Kindersicherung auf Dauer wieder beseitigt werden, dann muss der Riegel 8 beim
Betätigen der Handhabe 7 in der Entriegelungsposition arretiert werden. Dies geschieht
dadurch, dass bei festgehaltenem Riegel 8 der Arretierschieber 10 in die obere Arretierlage
überführt wird, wodurch sich der Lappen 24 in die Kerbe 23 des Riegels schiebt. If the childproof lock is to be removed again in the long run, then the
Beim Loslassen des Riegels 8 hält diese Kerbe den Riegel 8 nun gegen seine Federkraft
in dieser dauerhaft entriegelten Position fest.When the
Die Feder 15 kann wie hier gezeigt als Spiraldruckfeder aus Stahl ausgeführt sein. Sie
kann demgegenüber aber auch als Zugfeder und/oder aus einem anderen Werkstoff hergestellt
sein. Eine mögliche Variante für die Feder wäre die einstückige Verbindung mit
dem Kunststoff-Riegel 8. Dann wäre der Kunststoff zu Federungszwecken an der nämlichen
Stelle mäanderförmig oder ähnlich längenelastisch zu gestalten.As shown here, the
