  • a domestic appliance in particular laundry treatment machine such as washing machine, washer-dryer or dryer
  • a support structure to which at least a front wall and a lid are attached
  • a control panel which serves as a support for controls and / or control components.
  • the invention relates to a method for mounting a control panel to a support structure of a household appliance.
  • Such a household appliance is known from patent DE 198 45 259 C1.
  • the household appliance disclosed in this document includes a control panel which is mounted on top of the lid on a support structure or the housing.
  • the underside of the control panel contains fastening means which act in the horizontal direction and fix the operating element to the support structure.
  • this arrangement has the disadvantage that due to manufacturing tolerances, a gap or gap between the front wall and the control panel is created.
  • the mounting with the provided fasteners on the bottom of the control panel is quite complex.
  • the household appliance disclosed in European published patent application EP 0 943 721 A1 consists of a frame-shaped supporting structure with a cross-beam receiving the control panel.
  • the recesses and receiving openings for fastening means of the control panel must be made very precise in their dimensions, so that the visual appearance of the visible front is ensured with the control panel.
  • a household appliance which contains a control panel with a separate back.
  • the rear part is fastened by means of fastening means to a dedicated frame part.
  • the handling of the attachment is very cumbersome because the control panel must be accurately inserted with its protruding fasteners in corresponding receiving openings in the support structure and then a hard-to-access screw or other rotary plug-in bolt must be operated with a tool to the final tight fit guarantee.
  • European Published Patent Application EP 1 057 922 A2 discloses a domestic appliance in which the control panel is part of the front wall.
  • the front wall in the accessible area receiving openings for controls and / or control components.
  • a front panel is equipped with the operating elements and / or control components, and functionally connected to the inner machine part. Subsequently, this complete unit is inserted into the housing and fastened, wherein the controls are accessible via receiving openings from the outside. Since tolerances can not be avoided for a front wall of coated metal, this arrangement for the receiving openings with high tolerances in the dimensional stability in terms of size and position can be expected. Another disadvantage is that care must be taken in the manufacturing process during final assembly on the exact location of the controls.
  • DE 100 50 264 A1 discloses a laundry treatment machine with a control panel, which is integrally attached to a border of the housing cover.
  • a complete pre-assembly of the housing cover with the control panel and all components arranged in the control panel is possible, the attachment or connection with the front wall can lead due to cumulative tolerances to large columns or to a step-like offset between control panel and front wall.
  • a laundry treatment machine which contains a control panel with a cutout in the region of the feed opening.
  • the control panel is arranged projecting relative to the front wall.
  • the installation must be carried out with particular care, since the transition points or gaps between the control panel and the front wall change direction several times in the course of their alignment.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a household appliance with a control panel and a method for mounting a control panel, which ensures an optically flush transition between control panel and front wall safely with simple and quick installation.
  • the achievable with the present invention consist in addition to the simple and inexpensive installation is to provide a very stable and durable connection of the control panel with the front wall, which ensures a very small, almost invisible gap between the control panel and the front wall.
  • the control panel with the front wall positively connected.
  • the connection takes place via fastening means not described in detail.
  • the control panel has a cutout that substantially corresponds to the shape of a circular section.
  • the front wall contains on its upper side a shape which substantially corresponds to the shape of a circular section in such a way that this shaped circular section is inserted accurately into the cutout of the control panel.
  • the positioning of the fastening means on the two outer sides and one at the apex of the circular section results in the assembled state, a very stable and kink-resistant connection.
  • a uniform connection over the entire width of the control panel is achieved, whereby the gap between the control panel and the front wall is kept uniformly small.
  • pins are arranged in a preferred embodiment in the lower region at the rear, not visible part of the control panel in a preferably vertical orientation.
  • the reference to this and the following directional information is intended to the intended purpose of the household appliance.
  • the front wall contains on its upper side at an inwardly directed edge corresponding receiving openings for the control panel pin contained, which allow a fixation of the control panel on the front wall.
  • the direct fixation or attachment of the control panel on the front wall ensures a uniformly small gap on the outer visible surface between control panel and front wall. Another advantage is that the mounting of the control panel takes place in only one step and thus made very simple.
  • the downwardly directed pins each have a collar-shaped formation for latching with the receiving opening in the front wall, whereby the rear part is fixed to the front wall in a stationary position.
  • a fastening bushing inserted into the receiving opening and containing a corresponding shape for the collar-shaped formation of the peg provides a particularly secure and reliable fastening.
  • the upper attachment of the control panel is carried out with the aid of the cover to the support structure, for example with a groove arranged at the top of the rear part, in which engages a spring arranged on the cover, wherein the lid is fixed to a support structure.
  • the control panel is attached via the lid to the support structure.
  • control panel can be made in one piece or multiple parts, wherein in a multi-part design, the control panel off a visible front part and a hidden rear part, wherein the rear part contains the fastening means, in particular the already mentioned pin.
  • a washing machine with a control panel 1 and a front wall 2 is shown in front view.
  • the control panel 1 is positively connected to the front wall 2 , wherein the control panel 1 a cutout 5 in the form of a circular section and the front wall 2 include a molding 6 in the form of a circular section.
  • all operating and display elements such as program selector switch, pushbuttons for special functions, lights, display and the Receiving opening 10 arranged for a Waschstoffein facedkasten.
  • the controls protrude through openings provided on the outer surface 3 of the control panel and are thus accessible to the user.
  • openings are also provided which allow light passage for light indicators, for example via optical fibers or is provided for a display via a partial clear zone.
  • the control panel 1 is shown in a form-locking connected to the front wall 2 connected state, wherein the outer visible surface 3 of the control panel 1 is flush with the outer surface 4 of the front wall 2 and passes into this.
  • pins 13 can be seen as fasteners, which are aligned on the underside of the control panel 1 in the intended position or use of the household appliance down.
  • the pins 13 are arranged or integrally formed on a web 11, which ensures a positioning of the fastening means set back from the outer surface 3 of the control panel.
  • the pins 13 include a projection 14 which is inserted into the receiving opening 15 of the front wall 2 and automatically engages when plugging.
  • the front wall 2 comprises at least one forward approximately at right angles to the rear to the inside of bevel 18 in the upper region, which contains the receiving openings 15 for the pins. 13
