Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft gemäß der Beschreibung ein Feststellsystem des Laugenbehälters einer Haushaltswaschmaschine bezüglich ihres entsprechenden Rahmens, damit der Laugenbehälter beim Transport der Waschmaschine festgestellt erhalten ist, wodurch Bewegungen oder Schwingungen verhindert sind, die Ursache für Verstellungen und sogar Brüche oder Beschädigungen bestimmter Teile oder Komponenten sein könnten.According to the description, the present invention relates to a fixing system of the tub of a household washing machine with respect to its corresponding frame, so that the tub is retained during transportation of the washing machine, which prevents movements or vibrations, which are the cause of adjustments and even breakage or damage to certain parts or components could.

ALLGEMEINER STAND DER TECHNIKGENERAL PRIOR ART

Wie allgemein bekannt, werden in Haushaltswaschmaschinen vor ihrer Verpackung zum Transport Elemente eingegliedert, die zum Feststellen des Laugenbehälters bezüglich des Rahmens der Waschmaschine bestimmt sind und ein Verankerungssystem bilden, das normalerweise durch ein Paar von Teilen und eine dazwischen liegende Feder ausgebildet ist, wobei sich eines auf den Innenteil des Rahmenblechs der Waschmaschine und das andere auf den entsprechenden Laugenbehälter stützt, so daß die Feder, die zwischen diesen zwei Teilen angeordnet ist, mit ihnen zusammen als Trennelement zwischen dem Laugenbehälter und dem Rahmen dient, wobei die Einheit mithilfe einer axialen Durchgangsschraube befestigt ist, die in eine Öffnung eingeschraubt ist, welche zu diesem Zweck in dem Laugenbehälter gebildet ist.As is well known, household washing machines incorporate, prior to being packaged for transport, elements which are designed to hold the tub in relation to the frame of the washing machine and which form an anchoring system which is normally formed by a pair of parts and an intermediate spring, one of which is formed on the inner part of the frame plate of the washing machine and the other on the corresponding tub, so that the spring, which is arranged between these two parts, together with them serves as a separating element between the tub and the frame, the unit being fastened by means of an axial through screw which is screwed into an opening which is formed for this purpose in the tub.

Dieses System weist ernste Probleme und Nachteile auf, unter denen die Tatsache zu nennen ist, daß die Gegenüberstellung der zwei Außenteile und der Feder, die die Trenneinheit ausbilden, zum Ermöglichen des Durchgangs der Befestigungsschraube schwer durchzuführen ist.This system has serious problems and disadvantages, among which is the fact that the juxtaposition of the two outer parts and the spring which form the separating unit to enable passage of the fastening screw is difficult.

Wenn die Waschmaschine an ihrem endgültigen Standort montiert wird, müssen andererseits diese Verankerungs- oder Feststellungsmittel des Laugenbehälters entfernt werden, was logischerweise durch Herausschrauben und Entnahme der Schraube erfolgt, was bewirkt, daß die äußeren Stützteile und die Feder ins Innere der Waschmaschine oder auf den Boden fallen, so daß der Großteil der Waschmaschinen ein "Schlüsselloch" zum Vermeiden dieses Problems beinhalten, d.h. eine große Öffnung, durch die es möglich ist, dieses Teile oder Elemente, die die Trenneinheit bilden, zu entnehmen, wobei die Öffnung aufgrund ihrer Größe den Rahmen schwächt und außerdem einen Verschluß von erheblicher Größe zum Verschließen der Öffnung erfordert, wenn die Trenneinheit, die durch das angeführte Feststellsystem ausgebildet ist, abgebaut ist.When the washing machine is assembled in its final location, on the other hand, these anchoring or fixing means of the tub must be removed, which is logically by unscrewing and removing the Screw is made, causing the outer support members and spring to fall inside the washing machine or onto the floor, so that the majority of the washing machines include a "keyhole" to avoid this problem, ie a large opening through which it is possible this to remove parts or elements which form the separation unit, the opening weakens the frame due to its size and also requires a closure of considerable size to close the opening when the separation unit, which is formed by the locking system mentioned, is removed.

Andererseits ist es zum Anbringen der Elemente, die dieses Trennstück oder Verankerungs- und Feststellsystem bilden, notwendig, daß der Monteur zum Festhalten der Elemente und Durchführen und Einschrauben der Befestigungsschraube die Hand zwischen den Rahmen und den Laugenbehälter einführen muß, was mühsam und problematisch ist.On the other hand, for attaching the elements which form this separator or anchoring and locking system, it is necessary for the fitter to insert the hand between the frame and the tub to hold the elements and to carry out and screw in the fastening screw, which is tedious and problematic.

BESCHREIBUNG DER ERFINDUNGDESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Das erfindungsgemäße Feststellsystem weist eine Reihe von Besonderheiten auf, die es gestatten, die Nachteile und Probleme zu bewältigen, die im vorhergehenden Abschnitt angeführt sind.The locking system according to the invention has a number of special features which make it possible to overcome the disadvantages and problems which are mentioned in the previous section.

In diesem Sinne stützt sich das System der Erfindung darauf, daß zwischen dem Laugenbehälter der Waschmaschine und ihrem Rahmen ein verlängertes Teil als Trennstück angeordnet ist, mit einem axialen Durchgang für eine entsprechende Befestigungsschraube, die in eine zu diesem Zweck in dem Laugenbehälter vorgesehene Öffnung einzuschrauben ist, so daß das äußere Ende des Teils, das als Trennstück dient, eine leichte und zunehmende Erweiterung mit einem Paar von diametralen, überkreuzten Nuten aufweist, womit nicht nur der Durchgang der Befestigungsschraube ermöglicht ist, sondern auch, daß deren Kopfstück diesen Abschnitt des Trennstücks erweitert und ihn zu seiner Anpassung gegen die Außenfläche des Blechs, das dem Rahmen entspricht, drückt, um die Verankerung der Einheit zu erzielen, wenn die Schraube in die Öffnung des Laugenbehälters eingeschraubt ist.In this sense, the system of the invention is based on the fact that an extended part is arranged as a separator between the tub of the washing machine and its frame, with an axial passage for a corresponding fastening screw which is to be screwed into an opening provided for this purpose in the tub , so that the outer end of the part which serves as a separator has a slight and increasing extension with a pair of diametrically crossed grooves, which not only enables the passage of the fastening screw, but also that the head part enlarges this section of the separator and press it to adjust against the outer surface of the sheet corresponding to the frame to secure the unit when the screw is screwed into the opening of the tub.

Das Teil, das als Trennstück dient, ist vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff gebildet und weist quer verlaufende Nute auf, die abwechselnd den Großteil der Länge des Teils entlang angeordnet sind.The part that serves as a separator is preferably made of plastic and has transverse grooves that are alternately arranged along most of the length of the part.

Auf diese Weise erfolgt das Anbringen und der Abbau des Trennstücks völlig problemlos von außen und ohne die Möglichkeit, daß das Trennstück beim Herausschrauben der Befestigungsschraube ins Innere oder auf den Boden fällt, da das Teil, das als Trennstück dient, durch die Öffnung, die zu diesem Zweck im Blech des Rahmens des Waschmaschinenrahmens ausgebildet ist, eingeführt ist, wobei der leicht erweiterte Abschnitt auf der Außenseite verbleibt und danach die Durchführung oder Einführung der Befestigungsschraube durch das Trennstück und das entsprechende Einschrauben derselben in den Laugenbehälter erfolgt, wodurch ein wirksames Feststell- oder Verankerungssystem festgelegt ist, das unzweifelhaft verhindert, daß sich der Laugenbehälter beim Transport der Waschmaschine bewegen kann.In this way, the attachment and removal of the separator is completely problem-free from the outside and without the possibility that the separator falls when unscrewing the fastening screw inside or on the floor, since the part that serves as a separator through the opening to This purpose is formed in the sheet metal of the frame of the washing machine frame, is introduced, the slightly enlarged section remains on the outside and then the implementation or insertion of the fastening screw through the separator and the corresponding screwing of the same into the tub takes place, thereby an effective locking or Anchoring system is established, which undoubtedly prevents the tub from moving when the washing machine is being transported.
