Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a laundry treating machine comprising a tub in which a laundry drum is rotatably mounted about a horizontal or an inclined, forwardly rising axis, and a remplisstechniksabpumpsystem containing a pump for discharging a used in the laundry treating machine liquid, the pump chamber of the front surface of a cabinet-shaped outer casing of the laundry treatment machine is accessible forth.
  • the tub with the drum and the drive unit form a vibratory system that is suspended resiliently on the frame of the laundry treatment machine and supported by means of suitable shock absorbers against this.
  • a drain opening is present at the lowest point.
  • the fluid connection of the tub with the drain pump via a drain hose This has the additional task of mechanically decoupling the fixedly connected to the device housing drain pump and the spring-suspended tub so far that the operation of the laundry treatment machine out front tub and acting on the drain pump vibration loads can be minimized.
  • the delivery rate of the pumping system is under otherwise identical conditions dependent on the clear width of the individual components and the gradient of the tub outlet opening to the drain pump, and the wiring. This applies in particular to the Abpumpphasen where a mixture of liquid and foam is to promote.
  • the available free space for installing the pumping system is severely restricted. This results in design difficulties in the design of the pumping system, the size of the items can not be chosen arbitrarily and the possibilities to perform the pumping system with the required slope are limited.
  • the lye pump is preceded by a lint filter, the foreign body and torn laundry accessories, as well as the textile abrasion absorbs.
  • the lint filter is to be cleaned by the customer at regular intervals. Access to the lint filter and the inspection in the drain pump via an opening in the front panel, behind which the drain pump is located directly.
  • the operator must always take a stooped posture, since for the reasons described above, the drain pump is regularly arranged at a very low point in the device.
  • many manufacturers have proceeded to arrange the drain pump pivoted about a horizontal axis perpendicular to the axis of the drain pump, to arrange rising to the front.
  • the invention has for its object to show means by which the inspection of the drain pump and access to the lint filter can be facilitated.
  • the prior art known drainage systems are to be further developed so that their realization is possible by simple means.
  • the object is achieved in that the axis of the pump shaft is pivoted about a vertical such that it forms an acute angle seen with a vertical, extending from the front surface to the rear wall center plane of the outer housing.
  • the drainage pump according to the invention for users is much better visible and to be maintained as lye pumps, which according to the prior art very far outside, namely immediately adjacent to a side wall of the housing of the laundry treatment machine, which then possibly even directly next to a wall of the installation room, are mounted and installed at right angles or only in an upward angle to the front of the laundry treatment machine.
  • the drain pump is arranged pivoted in the direction of the loading opening, namely, it shows away from the side wall and can be viewed by a user who is directly in front of the feed opening, with a slight turn of his gaze.
  • the resulting more favorable perspective on the drain pump facilitates their control even in unfavorable room layout of the laundry treatment machine.
  • the laundry drum is equipped drivable for spinning and their tub is connected to a drain pipe via a drain hose with a suction on the pump whose level is lower than the drain pipe, provided that the drain pipe so angled inclined to the tub container coat is attached, that he supported in a least preferably maintained spin rotation direction of the laundry drum thrown off water in its expiration.
  • the drain hose is mounted under a streamlined for the thrown off liquor angle on the tub.
  • the flow rate of the water-foam mixture is greater, the pumping is shortened.
  • the greatest benefit to the user of a laundry treating machine according to the invention can be achieved in that the axis of the pump shaft is at an angle on the front surface with respect to the horizontal. Then the pump chamber is hers opened access cover ago most accessible and visible.
  • a front loader washing machine with a housing 1 with front wall 5, side wall 3 and rear wall 17 and with an inclined oscillating system of tub 6 and a rotatably mounted therein laundry drum 12 is selected, i. a washing machine with a frontal through a door 14 covered feed opening and a feed opening towards rising drum axis 7.
  • a washing machine with a frontal through a door 14 covered feed opening and a feed opening towards rising drum axis 7.
  • the drain pump 2 is attached to the bottom plate 4 of the washing machine housing 1. It is in accordance with the representation of its axis of rotation 9 in Fig. 2 raised forward and accordingly Fig. 3 additionally aligned pivoted about the vertical axis 16 to the center of the device, so that its central axis 9 forms an acute angle ⁇ with the vertical median plane on which the drum axis 7 is located.
  • the outlet pipe 8 on the tub 6 is deviating from the usual design not directed vertically downwards, but pivoted away in the main direction of rotation of the spin cycle of the laundry drum 12 (arrow) at an angle.
  • the fluid connection between the tub 6 and the drain pump 2 is realized via a flexible elastic hose 11.
  • the drain hose 11 and its guide from the tub 6 to the drain pump 2 are off FIG. 1 and 4 recognizable.
  • the drain hose 11 is mounted with a necessary slope. It is made of an elastic material (eg rubber) and has at least one corrugated section to further enhance the elasticity of the vibration.
  • the two ends are angled with slight bends so that they allow a continuous flow from the outlet pipe 8 to the tub 6 to the intake manifold 10 of the drain pump 2 and are mechanically fixed and fluid-tight connected with them.
  • This measure has the same effect as the inventive alignment of the outlet nozzle 8 on the tub 6 advantageously on the pump power, especially in a conveyed mixture of foam and water and in particular in a spinning direction of rotation from the vertical swiveled outlet pipe 8.
  • the entire pumping process is running in a very short time.
  • the intake port 10 of the drain pump 2 for connection of the drain hose 11 is directed to the center of the pump chamber.
  • Design of the drain hose 11 and the outlet nozzle 8 on the tub 6 so a minimum height of the entire pumping system can be achieved.
