Definitions
- the present invention relates to a detachable covering part for a household appliance, according to the preamble of appended claim 1.
- Household appliances such as dishwashers, washing machines etc. are generally provided with a covering plate or kick plate which fills the gap between the machine and the surface that supports the machine, and forms an aesthetically pleasant unified front surface which often connects to a unified floor base in, for example, a kitchen interior.
- the previously known covering plate is equipped with two vertical long holes for fastening-screws, usually metal screws that are screwed into a screw hole in a body part of the machine. Screws with long holes disrupt the aesthetical total impression and are difficult to handle due to, for example, a difficult working position, often close to the floor.
- This known plate is thus adjustable in height and depth to compensate for various set positions of a household appliance, but is not adjustable sideways.
- the purpose of the present invention is to eliminate the above stated drawbacks, and to create a covering part which can easily be position- adjusted to the surrounding surfaces, and which gives a clean and aesthetically appealing front surface.
- Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of the covering part according to the invention, at a front angle
- Fig. 2 shows a perspective view of the covering part at an angle from behind
- Figs. 3, 4, 5 and 6 in a slightly larger scale show the covering plate from the side, from straight behind, in a straight front view and in a straight top view
- Figs. 7 and 8 in exploded views show, at front and rear angles respectively, the covering part and a body part of the household appliance, while
- Figs. 9 and 10 in corresponding perspective views show a partially exploded detail view of the covering part in an assembled position.
- the covering part 1 consists of two main parts which in turn are divided into a number of components, both a covering plate 3 and a fastening device 4.
- the name covering plate 3 is used due to old habit, but it can of course be made in a material other than sheet metal, i.e. metal, for example plastic.
- the plate 3 is in the example shown essentially a so-called kick plate which is intended to be placed at the bottom part of a household appliance, for example a dishwasher, and forms a base which in an aesthetically appealing way connects to a surface such as a floor 53 which is suggested in Figs. 3, 4 and 6 with dotted lines.
- the covering part 1 is arranged to, at the bottom part of the front surface of the household appliance, cover a gap between the rest of the front surface of the machine and the surface which the machine is supported by, i.e. the gap between the hatch 9 and the surface.
- the attachment device 4 exhibits two fastening consoles 5, 6 which protrude from a body part 7 of a household appliance 8 which is suggested in part with dotted broken lines in Fig. 3, for example the lower end of an appliance door 9 and an adjustable foot 10.
- Two adjustable feet are, for example, arranged at the front and bottom part of the machine for adjustable height setting of the machine. When changing the height this way, the body part 7, the door 9 and the fastening consoles 5, 6 are thus brought along.
- Each fastening console 5, 6 is thus arranged to protrude forwards from the body part 7 and exhibits both a fastening portion 11 for adjustable fastening to the body part 7 and a gripping and supporting part 12 arranged in front of the fastening part 11 for support against the covering plate and engagement with an engagement part on the inside of the covering plate 3.
- the fastening part 11 of the console is designed as an elongated rail with two flanges 13, 14 facing away from each other, one of which faces upwards and the other one downwards, in the example shown essentially in the same vertical plane. They can of course also be at an angle towards each other and towards the vertical plane.
- the support and engagement part 12 of the console 5 consists of a portion 18 which is sideways directed from the front end of the elongated rail.
- This sideways portion 18 is in the example shown thus placed crosswise relative to the longitudinal direction of the rail, in the example at a straight angle to it and will thus connect to the inside 19 of the covering plate 3 and form a supporting surface against it. From the sideways or crossways directed supporting part 18 there is at an angle inwards towards the body part, i.e.
- the covering plate 3 apart from a front surface 21 , exhibits two opposite side edge portions 22, 23 which exhibit supporting and engaging portions 24 which are arranged to interact with the supporting and engaging portions 5, 6 of the fastening consoles.
- the engagement portions 24, 25 of the covering plate 3 are formed by each side edge portion 22, 23 being folded twice inwardly so that it forms an open channel 26 with a U-shaped cross section formed by the inside 19 of the covering plate 3 and by a first perpendicularly backwards folded edge portion 27, and also by a further folded portion 28.
- This portion 28 forms a supporting flange which does not extend across the entire height of the covering plate 3, see for example Fig. 4, but ends upwards with a cross edge 29 about one centimetre from the upper edge 30 of the covering plate and at a larger distance with a cross edge from the lower edge 32 of the covering plate.
- the cross edge 31 is shaped with an end tab 33 which is at a slight angle outwards.
- Both the upper edge 30 and the lower edge 32 exhibit inwards folded edge portions.
- a part of the cross edges 34, 35 are straight without edges being folded in, in order to facilitate assembly and disassembly.
- the supporting edge 54 is in the example straight and vertical and forms a support towards the folded portion 28. This in turn exhibits a contact edge 56 which, with suitable tolerances, interacts with the contact tongue 55.
- Figs. 7-10 best show how the fastening consoles 5, 6 are attached to the body part 7 of the household appliance.
- the covering part, at each corner 36 of the appliance exhibits two plates arranged crosswise relative to each other, a front plate 37 and a side plate 38.
- the front plate 37 at each of its front corners exhibits a specially formed opening 39, see Figs.
- the fastening portion 11 of the console 5 is intended to extend in the assembled state of the fastening device 4 essentially at a perpendicular angle towards the front plate 37, and along the side plate 38 in more detail at its inside parallel to it.
- It is shaped with guiding organs 40 which form a guide for the console 5 so that this can be displaced into respectively out of the body part, and be held at a desired distance from the front plate 37.
- the guide organ 40 is in the example shown made of punched out tongues 41 , 42 which have been pressed and bent so that they, in interaction with the inside of the side plate, can form a guide for the console by means of interaction with its two opposing flanges 13, 14.
- the opening 39 or the recess in the front plate 37 is dimensioned, in the example shown, with two opposing grooves 43, 44 which advantageously are dimensioned to form guides for the two flanges 13, 14 of the console.
- the fastening device comprises the above-mentioned locking elements 17.
- These are, in the example shown, designed as sliding bolts which are mobile crosswise relative to the longitudinal direction of the corresponding console between a locking position and a release position. In the locking position the sliding bolts are moved by means of a locking hook 45 into a locking aperture which in the position in question of the console is immediately in front of the locking hook, said aperture being one in a row of locking apertures or recesses.
- the locking bolts 17 run in guiding organs on the front plate 37.
- each sliding bolt 17 consist of edge portions 46, 47 of a recess of the front plate which in the example shown is the same recess 39 which is intersected by the respective console 5, 6.
- the sliding bolt 17 is advantageously made of plastic, and is shaped with guiding flanges in the form of hook-like elements which interact with the opposing edge portions 46, 47 of the recess 39 in the front plate 37.
- each sliding bolt exhibits a gripping organ 50 intended for gripping by a person for being displaced between a release position and a locking position, see the direction of the double arrows 57.
- positioning organs 51 both on the body part 7 and on the sliding bolt 17.
- Said positioning organ 52 in the example shown consists of a minor abutment in the shape of a semi-sphere on the rear side of the locking bolt which is slightly flexible and interacts with protrusions in the opposing edge portions 46, 47 of the recess 39.
- the two consoles 5, 6 thus protrude through the respective opening 39 in the front plate 37, and can possibly be supported by the grooves 43, 44 of the opening but at least by the guide organs 40, i.e. the guiding flanges 41 , 42 in the side plate 38.
- the consoles in their longitudinal direction essentially extend horizontally, i.e. straight out from the appliance, suitably essentially parallel to the surface 53 on which the machine rests with its feet 10.
- the position retainment in the height direction is in the example shown defined by the surface 53, i.e. the cover plate with its lower edge 32 rests on the surface 53, i.e. the same surface as the machine rests on, and will thus automatically adjust according to it.
- the guiding or the position retainment sideways, i.e. essentially along the main plane of the cover plate 3, i.e. the plane of the front surface is in a similar manner ensured by means of the supporting and gripping organs with allowance for minor tolerances for adjustment to the sideways position of the machine relative to the surrounding surfaces, for example adjacent floor bases.
- the position retainment in the depth direction is in more detail ensured, see for example Fig. 5 and Fig.
- Stability against sloping of the kick plate 3 is obtained by means of these supporting and gripping portions of the console having an extension in height of at least one or up to two or three centimetres at a covering edge which has a height extension in the order of size of about 10-15 cm.
- a suitable height ratio can be from approximately 1 :4 to approximately 1 :2.
- cover plate 3 By means of the above described covering part with its cover plate 3 and fastening device 4, a simple and aesthetically appealing retainment of the cover plate 3 is made possible. It can easily be taken out by being raised in the heightwise direction until the tab 33 has passed the gripping and supporting organs of the consoles. Adjustment of the cover plate 3 in the depth direction is made by means of the user pressing with a finger on the manoeuvring organ 50 of the locking bolts 17 in the sideways inwards direction towards each other, thus making the locking hook 45 leave its locking position in one of the locking openings 16, and a console 5 can be pushed in or pulled out along corresponding guide organs 40, following which the locking bolt 17 is pressed to the locking position. In this position, the cover plate 3 can also withstand blows and kicks.
- the covering part will automatically adjust in the height direction by means of the engagement organs 24 of the cover plate 3 allowing the gripping organs 18 of the console to glide along the channel 26 formed, while the covering plate 3 rests with its lower edge 32 on the surface 53.
- consoles can slide in their guiding organs using friction or on nibs which create locking positions.
- engagement organs of the cover plate can consist of specially arranged elements on the inside of the cover plate instead of the bent edge portions.
- the number of consoles can be larger than two.
- the cover plate can be used on other household appliances than dishwashers or washing machine, for example refrigerators, freezers, stoves, ovens, ovens with frames where the floor or the surface is replaced by a lower edge or upper edge in the decoration of the kitchen for example surrounding carpentry.
- the engagement organs of the covering plate prefferably exhibit some form of tab which protrudes forwards above the gripping organs of the console in order to support the covering plate 3 in the height direction, i.e. above the supporting surface without necessarily resting on it.
