Description

Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Haushaltsgerätbetätigungsvorrichtung nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a domestic appliance actuating device according to the preamble of claim 1.

Haushaltsgeräte, wie Herde, Backöfen, Kühlschränke, Spülmaschinen, Mikrowellen oder dergleichen, bedürfen der regelmäßigen Reinigung der Außenflächen, um ein ansehnliches Erscheinungsbild abzugeben. Hierbei bilden aus einer Außenfläche des Haushaltsgeräts hervorstehende Betätigungselemente, wie Griffe, Knebel oder Knöpfe, Reinigungshindernisse, die die gründliche Reinigung der Außenfläche erschweren.Domestic appliances, such as stoves, ovens, refrigerators, dishwashers, microwaves or the like, require the regular cleaning of the outer surfaces to give a handsome appearance. In this case, forming from an outer surface of the household appliance protruding actuators, such as handles, gag or buttons, cleaning obstacles that complicate the thorough cleaning of the outer surface.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht insbesondere darin, eine gattungsgemäße Haushaltsgerätbetätigungsvorrichtung mit verbesserten Eigenschaften hinsichtlich der Pflege anzugeben. Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung können den Unteransprüchen entnommen werden.The object of the invention is in particular to provide a generic household appliance operating device with improved care properties. This object is achieved by the features of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments and further developments of the invention can be taken from the subclaims.

Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Haushaltsgerätbetätigungsvorrichtung mit einem Stationärelement zur Anordnung an einer Haushaltsgeräteinheit und einem von einem Bediener anzufassenden Betätigungselement.The invention is based on a domestic appliance operating device with a stationary element for arrangement on a household appliance unit and an operating element to be handled by an operator.

Es wird vorgeschlagen, dass das Betätigungselement relativ zum Stationärelement aus einer Ruhestellung in eine Betätigungsstellung bewegbar ist. In der Ruhestellung, die auch als Reinigungsstellung bezeichnet werden kann, kann das Betätigungselement besonders geeignet zur Reinigung angeordnet sein, wobei auf eine gute Bedienbarkeit keine Rücksicht genommen zu werden braucht. In der Ruhestellung ist das Betätigungselement zweckmäßigerweise nicht zu der Betätigung vorgesehen, die dem Betätigungselement zugeordnet ist. Das Betätigungselement ist somit vorzugsweise zu einer Bewegung aus der Ruhestellung in die Betätigungsstellung vor einer ihm zugeordneten Betätigung vorgesehen. Die Bewegung des Betätigungselements aus seiner Ruhestellung in die Betätigungsstellung kann federgetrieben sein. Die Betätigungsstellung ist zweckmäßigerweise durch einen Anschlag vorgegeben. Das Stationärelement ist insbesondere unbeweglich in der Haushaltsgeräteinheit befestigt. Die Anordnung des Stationärelements an einer Haushaltsgeräteinheit umfasst die Anordnung im der Haushaltsgeräteinheit.It is proposed that the actuating element is movable relative to the stationary element from a rest position into an actuating position. In the rest position, which can also be referred to as a cleaning position, the actuating element can be arranged particularly suitable for cleaning, taking no account of good usability. In the rest position, the actuating element is expediently not provided for the actuation associated with the actuating element. The actuating element is thus preferably provided for movement from the rest position into the actuating position in front of an associated actuation. The movement of the actuating element from its rest position into the actuating position can be spring-driven. The actuation position is expediently predetermined by a stop. The stationary element is in particular immobile attached in the household appliance unit. The arrangement of the stationary element on a household appliance unit comprises the arrangement in the household appliance unit.

In bevorzugter Weise ist das Betätigungselement ein Türgriff. Ein Türgriff ist üblicherweise an einer deutlich sichtbaren Stelle angeordnet, die zur Wahrung eines ansprechenden optischen Erscheinungsbilds der regelmäßigen Pflege bedarf. Dies gilt insbesondere für einen Türgriff einer Backofentür, bei der Verschmutzungen durch Wärmeeinwirkungen fest eintrocknen können und die daher an hervortretenden Teilen schwer zu reinigen ist.Preferably, the actuating element is a door handle. A door handle is usually arranged at a clearly visible location, which requires the maintenance of a pleasing visual appearance of the regular care. This is especially true for a door handle of a baking oven door, where dirt can dry out due to the effects of heat and which is therefore difficult to clean on protruding parts.

Eine besonders leichte Reinigung und ein optisch ansprechendes Erscheinungsbild können erreicht werden, wenn das Betätigungselement in seiner Ruhestellung in zumindest einem weiteren Element versenkt ist. Durch die Versenkung, vorteilhafterweise in einer Frontfläche bzw. einem Türflansch, können eine Außenfläche des Betätigungselements und des weiteren Elements bündig zueinander angeordnet und hierdurch leicht zu reinigen sein. Hierbei bilden das Betätigungselement und eine Außenfläche des weiteren Elements zusammen mit Vorteil eine ebene Fläche.A particularly easy cleaning and a visually appealing appearance can be achieved if the actuating element is sunk in its rest position in at least one further element. By sinking, advantageously in a front surface or a door flange, an outer surface of the actuating element and the further element can be arranged flush with each other and thereby easy to clean. Here, the actuating element and an outer surface of the further element form together with advantage a flat surface.

Eine leichte und gefällige Bedienbarkeit kann erreicht und einem Verschleiß des Betätigungselements kann entgegengewirkt werden, wenn die Haushaltsgerätbetätigungsvorrichtung ein Dämpfungsmittel zur Dämpfung der Bewegung des Betätigungselements von seiner Ruhestellung in seine Betätigungsstellung umfasst. Dies gilt insbesondere bei einer federgetriebenen Bewegung. Ein starkes Anschlagen des Betätigungselements an einen Anschlag kann verhindert und ein weiches Herausfahren in die Betätigungsstellung kann erreicht werden. Umfasst das Dämpfungsmittel ein Energiedissipationselement, so kann die in der Bewegung des Betätigungselements vorhandene Energie einfach abgebaut und ein Zurückfedern des Betätigungselements vermieden werden. Das Energiedissipationselement kann ein hydraulisches oder pneumatisches Element sein. Besonders einfach ist ein Rotationsdämpfer, bei dem ein Rotationselement in beispielsweise einer viskosen Flüssigkeit rotiert.A light and pleasing operation can be achieved and wear of the actuator can be counteracted when the household appliance operating device comprises a damping means for damping the movement of the actuating element from its rest position to its operating position. This is especially true in a spring-driven movement. A strong impact of the actuating element on a stop can be prevented and a soft moving out into the operating position can be achieved. If the damping means comprises an energy-dissipating element, the energy present in the movement of the actuating element can be easily broken down and spring-back of the actuating element can be avoided. The energy dissipation element may be a hydraulic or pneumatic element. Particularly simple is a rotary damper in which a rotating element rotates in, for example, a viscous liquid.

In einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung weist die Haushaltsgerätbetätigungsvorrichtung eine Schwenkachse auf, um die das Betätigungselement bei der Bewegung von der Ruhestellung in die Betätigungsstellung schwenkbar ist. Es kann eine sichere und verschleißarme Bewegung des Betätigungselements mit einer einfachen und robusten Mechanik erreicht werden.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the household appliance operating device has a pivot axis about which the actuating element is pivotable in the movement from the rest position to the actuating position. It can be a safe and low-wear movement of the actuator can be achieved with a simple and robust mechanism.

Außerdem wird vorgeschlagen, dass die Haushaltsgerätbetätigungsvorrichtung eine Rotationsachse umfasst, um die das in Betätigungsstellung gehaltene Betätigungselement rotierbar ist. Hierdurch kann das Betätigungselement mit einer Schwenkbewegung der betätigten Einheit, beispielsweise einer Tür, mitgeführt werden, wodurch eine ergonomische und bequeme Betätigung erzielbar ist. Die Benutzerfreundlichkeit der Betätigung kann weiter erhöht werden durch eine um die Rotationsachse rotierbare Baugruppe, die ein Dämpfungsmittel zur Dämpfung der Bewegung des Betätigungselements von seiner Ruhestellung in seine Betätigungsstellung aufweist. Durch eine Anordnung der Baugruppe zumindest im Wesentlichen zwischen einer Ebene einer Innenscheibe und einer Ebene einer Außenscheibe einer Backofentür wird ein kompaktes Haushaltsgerät mit einem ansprechenden Design ermöglicht.In addition, it is proposed that the household appliance operating device comprises an axis of rotation about which the actuating element held in the actuating position is rotatable. In this way, the actuating element with a pivoting movement of the actuated unit, such as a door, be carried, whereby an ergonomic and comfortable operation is achieved. The user-friendliness of the operation can be further increased by a rotatable about the rotation axis assembly having a damping means for damping the movement of the actuating element from its rest position to its operating position. By arranging the assembly at least substantially between a plane of an inner pane and a plane of an outer pane of a baking oven door, a compact household appliance with an attractive design is made possible.

Mit Hilfe eines Rastmittels, das das Betätigungselement entgegen einer Federkraft in seiner Ruhestellung hält, kann die Bewegung des Betätigungselements in seine Betätigungsstellung auf einfache Weise unterbunden und ebenso auf einfache Weise ausgelöst werden. Das Rastmittel kann hierbei eine insbesondere herzförmige Führungskulisse aufweisen, die ein Führungselement von einer eingerasteten in eine ausgerastete Position führt und umgekehrt. Besonders einfach ist ein das Betätigungselement zumindest teilweise umgreifendes und federgelagertes Rastmittel.With the aid of a locking means, which holds the actuating element against a spring force in its rest position, the movement of the actuating element can be prevented in its operating position in a simple manner and also triggered in a simple manner. The locking means may in this case have a particular heart-shaped guide slot, which guides a guide element from a locked to a disengaged position and vice versa. Particularly simple is the actuating element at least partially encompassing and spring-loaded locking means.

Weitere Vorteile ergeben sich aus der folgenden Zeichnungsbeschreibung. In der Zeichnung sind Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung dargestellt. Die Zeichnung, die Beschreibung und die Ansprüche enthalten zahlreiche Merkmale in Kombination. Der Fachmann wird die Merkmale zweckmäßigerweise auch einzeln betrachten und zu sinnvollen weiteren Kombinationen zusammenfassen.Further advantages emerge from the following description of the drawing. In the drawings, embodiments of the invention are shown. The drawing, the description and the claims contain numerous features in combination. The person skilled in the art will expediently also consider the features individually and combine them into meaningful further combinations.

Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 eine Frontansicht auf einen Backofen mit einer Backofentür und
  • Fig. 2 einen Schnitt durch eine Handgriffbaugruppe der Backofentür.
Show it:
  • Fig. 1 is a front view of an oven with a oven door and
  • 2 shows a section through a handle assembly of the oven door.

Figur 1 zeigt ein als Backofen 2 ausgeführtes Haushaltsgerät mit einer als Tür 4 ausgeführten Haushaltsgeräteinheit, die ein Backrohr 6 verschließt und mit Hilfe eines als Türgriff ausgebildeten Betätigungselements 8 geöffnet und geschlossen werden kann. Das Betätigungselement 8 erstreckt sich im Wesentlichen über die gesamte Breite der Tür 4 und ist in Figur 2 in einer Schnittdarstellung gezeigt.FIG. 1 shows a domestic appliance designed as a baking oven 2 with a household appliance unit embodied as a door 4, which closes a baking tube 6 and can be opened and closed with the aid of an actuating element 8 designed as a door handle. The actuating element 8 extends substantially over the entire width of the door 4 and is shown in Figure 2 in a sectional view.

Figur 2 zeigt das Betätigungselement 8, das durch einen Zapfen 10 um eine Schwenkachse 12 schwenkbar gelagert ist. In Figur 2 durchgezogen dargestellt ist die Ruhestellung R des Betätigungselements 8, in der es mit einer Außenscheibe 14 der Tür 4 bündig angeordnet und in zwei Stationärelementen 16, 18 und der Außenscheibe 14 versenkt positioniert ist. Gestrichelt dargestellt ist die Betätigungsstellung B des Betätigungselements 8, in der es um einen Winkel α = 45° aus seiner Ruhestellung R heraus verschwenkt ist. Der Zapfen 10 ist im ersten Stationärelement 16 befestigt und kann ein- oder mehrstückig mit dem Stationärelement 16 ausgeführt sein.Figure 2 shows the actuating element 8, which is pivotally mounted by a pin 10 about a pivot axis 12. Shown in solid lines in Figure 2 is the rest position R of the actuating element 8, in which it is flush with an outer pane 14 of the door 4 and positioned in two stationary elements 16, 18 and the outer pane 14 sunk. Shown dashed lines is the operating position B of the actuating element 8, in which it is pivoted by an angle α = 45 ° from its rest position R out. The pin 10 is fixed in the first stationary element 16 and may be embodied in one or more pieces with the stationary element 16.

Durch ein Rastmittel 20 mit einer Blattfeder 22 und einem Entriegelungselement 24 wird das Betätigungselement 8 in seiner Ruhestellung R gehalten, in der es durch eine Feder 26 gegen das Entriegelungselement 24 gedrückt wird. Durch ein Herunterdrücken des Entriegelungselements 24 durch einen Bediener entgegen der Federkraft der Blattfeder 22 kommt das Betätigungselement 8 frei und wird durch die Federkraft der Feder 26 in seine Betätigungsstellung B bewegt. Durch Druck auf das Betätigungselement 8 in Richtung zu seiner Ruhestellung R hin kann das Betätigungselement 8 durch einen Bediener entgegen der Federkraft der Feder 26 bewegt werden, bis es das Entriegelungselement 24 nach unten drückt und dieses dann vor dem Betätigungselement 8 einrastet und das Betätigungselement 8 wieder in seiner Ruhestellung R hält. Anstelle des Rastmittels 20 ist ein alternatives Rastmittel denkbar, in dem ein Führungselement in einer schematisch angedeuteten Führungskulisse 28, wie beispielsweise in einem Kugelschreiber, geführt ist. Bei einem solchen Ausführungsbeispiel muss das Betätigungselement 8 zum Entriegeln dieses Rastmittels ein Stück weit in die Tür 4 hinein gedrückt werden, wie durch die gestrichpunktete Stellung des Betätigungselements 8 schematisch angedeutet ist.By a latching means 20 with a leaf spring 22 and an unlocking element 24, the actuating element 8 is held in its rest position R, in which it is pressed by a spring 26 against the unlocking element 24. By depressing the unlocking element 24 by an operator against the spring force of the leaf spring 22, the actuating element 8 comes free and is moved by the spring force of the spring 26 in its operating position B. By pressing the actuator 8 in the direction of its rest position R down the actuator 8 can be moved by an operator against the spring force of the spring 26 until it pushes the unlocking 24 down and then this engages in front of the actuator 8 and the actuator 8 again in its rest position R holds. Instead of the latching means 20, an alternative latching means is conceivable in which a guide element is guided in a schematically indicated guide slot 28, such as in a ballpoint pen. In such an embodiment, the actuating element 8 must be pressed for unlocking this locking means a little way into the door 4, as indicated by the dash-dotted position of the actuating element 8 schematically.

Mit dem Betätigungselement 8 fest verbunden sind zwei Seitenschenkel 30, von denen in Figur 2 einer gezeigt ist. Die Seitenschenkel 30 weisen an ihrer radialen Außenfläche eine Verzahnung 32 auf, die mit einem Zahnrad 34 eines Dämpfungsmittels 36 kämmt. Das Dämpfungsmittel 36 ist im ersten Stationärelement 16 fest gehaltert und als Energiedissipationselement in Form eines Rotationsdämpfers ausgeführt, der ein relativ zum ersten Stationärelement 16 festes Behältnis mit einer viskosen Flüssigkeit und einen relativ zum ersten Stationärelement 16 und in der viskosen Flüssigkeit beweglichen Rotator 38 umfasst. Der Rotator 38 erzeugt bei einer Bewegung durch die viskose Flüssigkeit Turbulenzen und dämpft auf diese Weise die Bewegung des Betätigungselements 8. Hierdurch bewegt sich das Betätigungselement 8 bei einem Herunterdrücken des Entriegelungselements 24 mit einer im Wesentlichen konstanten und langsamen Geschwindigkeit von allein von der Ruhestellung R in seine Betätigungsstellung B. Durch einen Anschlag 40, der an eine Kontur 42 des ersten Stationärelements 16 anschlägt, wird das Betätigungselement 8 in seiner Betätigungsstellung B gehalten.Firmly connected to the actuating element 8 are two side legs 30, one of which is shown in FIG. The side legs 30 have on their radial outer surface a toothing 32, which meshes with a gear 34 of a damping means 36. The damping means 36 is firmly held in the first stationary element 16 and as Energiedissipationselement in the form of a rotary damper comprising a fixed container with a viscous fluid relative to the first stationary element 16 and a rotator 38 movable relative to the first stationary element 16 and in the viscous fluid. The rotator 38 generates turbulence upon movement through the viscous fluid and thus dampens the movement of the actuator 8. As a result, the actuator 8 moves upon depression of the unlatching member 24 at a substantially constant and slow speed from alone from the rest position R in its actuating position B. By a stop 40 which abuts a contour 42 of the first stationary element 16, the actuating element 8 is held in its operating position B.

In dieser Betätigungsstellung B kann ein Bediener das Betätigungselement 8 hintergreifen und die Tür 4 öffnen. Bei einer solchen Öffnungsbewegung wird der obere Teil der Tür 4 und mit ihm das Betätigungselement 8 nach unten geschwenkt. Um eine ergonomische Betätigung des Betätigungselements 8 bei dieser Öffnungsbewegung zu gewährleisten, ist eine ganze Baugruppe 44 um eine Rotationsachse 46 rotierbar gelagert. Diese Baugruppe 44 umfasst das Betätigungselement 8 mit den Seitenschenkeln 30 und der Feder 26, das erste Stationärelement 16 und das Dämpfungsmittel 36.In this operating position B, an operator can grip behind the actuating element 8 and open the door 4. In such an opening movement of the upper part of the door 4 and with it the actuator 8 is pivoted downwards. In order to ensure an ergonomic actuation of the actuating element 8 during this opening movement, an entire assembly 44 is rotatably mounted about a rotation axis 46. This assembly 44 comprises the actuating element 8 with the side legs 30 and the spring 26, the first stationary element 16 and the damping means 36.

Die rotierbare Lagerung der Baugruppe 44 um die Rotationsachse 46 geschieht durch ein Gleitlager 48 an einem Zapfen 50. Das Gleitlager 48 ist mit dem ersten Stationärelement 16 fest verbunden. Der Zapfen 50 ist fest mit dem zweiten Stationärelement 18 verbunden, das wiederum mit der Außenscheibe 14 und einer Innenscheibe 52 der Tür 4 unbeweglich verbunden ist. Die Baugruppe 44 ist auf diese Weise zwischen zwei Ebenen angeordnet, nämlich einer durch die Außenseite der Außenscheibe 14 festgelegten und einer durch die Innenseite - bezogen auf das Backrohr 6 - der Innenscheibe 52 festgelegten Ebene, und ist somit kompakt in der Tür 4 integriert. Bei einem Öffnen der Tür 4 wird die ganze Baugruppe 44 und mit ihr das in seiner Betätigungsstellung B gehaltene Betätigungselement 8 um die Rotationsachse 46 gedreht und kann somit von dem Bediener in jeder Position der Tür 4 einfach und bequem gehalten werden.The rotatable mounting of the assembly 44 about the axis of rotation 46 is done by a sliding bearing 48 on a pin 50. The sliding bearing 48 is fixedly connected to the first stationary element 16. The pin 50 is fixedly connected to the second stationary element 18, which in turn is immovably connected to the outer disk 14 and an inner disk 52 of the door 4. The assembly 44 is arranged in this way between two levels, namely a fixed by the outside of the outer pane 14 and a through the inside - with respect to the baking pipe 6 - the inner pane 52 defined plane, and is thus compactly integrated in the door 4. Upon opening the door 4, the entire assembly 44 and with it held in its operating position B actuator 8 is rotated about the rotation axis 46 and thus can be easily and comfortably held by the operator in any position of the door 4.
