Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist, die Befestigung eines Blendenteils in einem Haushaltgerät auf einfache Weise zu verbessern, wobei Spalten vermieden werden sollen.The object of the invention is to improve the attachment of a panel in a household appliance in a simple manner, with columns to be avoided.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch ein Haushaltgerät mit einem Blendenteil mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den nachfolgenden abhängigen Ansprüchen.According to the invention this object is achieved by a household appliance with a panel with the features of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments and modifications of the invention will become apparent from the following dependent claims.
Die mit der Erfindung erreichbaren Vorteile bestehen neben der einfachen und kostengünstigen Montage darin, dass eine sehr stabile und zuverlässige Befestigung des Blendenteils an der Frontwand und dem Gehäusedeckel bereitgestellt wird, die einen sehr kleinen, nahezu nicht sichtbaren Spalt zwischen dem Blendenteil und den angrenzenden Gehäuseteilen, insbesondere der Frontwand und dem Deckel dauerhaft sicherstellt. Ferner wird auf einfache Weise ein Toleranzausgleich geschaffen, ohne dass eine besonders hohe Maßhaltigkeit für die Gehäuseteile gegeben sein muss.The achievable with the present invention consist in addition to the simple and inexpensive installation is that a very stable and reliable attachment of the panel to the front wall and the housing cover is provided, which has a very small, almost invisible gap between the panel and the adjacent housing parts, especially the front wall and the lid permanently ensures. Furthermore, a tolerance compensation is created in a simple manner without having to give a particularly high dimensional stability for the housing parts.
Hierzu wird das Blendenteil über zumindest ein Federelement in die betriebsgemäße Einbaulage positioniert, wobei der obere Rand des Blendenteils gegen den vorderen Rand des Gehäusedeckels gedrückt wird, wobei das Federelement an oder in der Buchse angeordnet ist und auf den Zapfen wirkt. Durch die andauernde kraftmäßige Anlage des Blendenteils am Gehäusedeckel werden auch nachträgliche Verformungen des Gehäuses zuverlässig ausgeglichen. Diese und die nachfolgenden Richtungsangaben beziehen sich auf die betriebsgemäße Lage des Haushaltgerätes. Das Blendenteil kann ein Teil sein, welches insbesondere den für den Benutzer sichtbaren Teil einer Bedienblende bildet und Bedien- und Anzeigeelemente für das Haushaltgerät umfasst. Das Blendenteil kann auch ein Teil des Gehäuses sein, welches als Abdeckung dient.For this purpose, the panel part is positioned over at least one spring element in the operational installation position, wherein the upper edge of the panel member is pressed against the front edge of the housing cover, wherein the spring element is arranged on or in the socket and acts on the pin. Due to the continuous force conditioning of the panel on the housing cover and subsequent deformation of the housing are reliably compensated. These and the following directions refer to the operational position of the household appliance. The panel part may be a part, which in particular forms the part of a control panel which is visible to the user and comprises operating and display elements for the domestic appliance. The cover member may also be a part of the housing, which serves as a cover.
In einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform besitzt die Buchse ein erstes Federelement, welches auf das freie Ende des Zapfen entgegen der Einsteckrichtung drückt, wodurch das Blendenteil nach oben gegen die Unterseite des vorderen Randes des Gehäusedeckels gedrückt wird.In an advantageous embodiment, the socket has a first spring element which presses against the free end of the pin counter to the insertion direction, whereby the panel member is pressed up against the underside of the front edge of the housing cover.
Es ist hierbei zweckmäßig, ein erstes Federelement einstückig an der Buchse anzuformen. Auf diese Weise ist insbesondere bei Buchsen aus Kunststoffmaterial das Federelement sehr einfach und ohne zusätzliche Einzelteile bereitzustellen.It is expedient here to form a first spring element in one piece on the socket. In this way, especially in bushings made of plastic material, the spring element is very easy to provide and without additional items.
In einer weiteren Ausführung besitzt die Buchse an der gegenüberliegenden Seite der Einführöffnung eine Platte, die in axialer Richtung beweglich über zumindest eine Feder mit der Buchse verbunden ist, so dass die Platte auf das von dem Blendenteil entfernte Ende des Zapfens drückt. Die Platte bildet hierbei einen federbeweglichen Anschlag für den Zapfen, der im eingesteckten Zustand entgegen der Einsteckrichtung herausgedrückt wird. Die Feder wirkt hierbei als Zugfeder, wodurch sich die Federwirkung über einen längeren Weg erstreckt.In a further embodiment, the socket on the opposite side of the insertion opening has a plate which is connected in the axial direction movable via at least one spring to the socket, so that the plate presses on the remote from the panel end of the pin. The plate here forms a spring-movable stop for the pin, which is pushed out in the inserted state against the insertion direction. The spring acts as a tension spring, whereby the spring action extends over a longer path.
In einer weiteren, zweckmäßigen Ausführung besitzt die Buchse zwei sich gegenüberliegende Aussparungen, in denen jeweils ein als Feder wirkender S-förmiger Steg angeordnet ist. Damit wird eine stabile Befestigung der Platte an den Stegen bereitgestellt und eine gleichmäßige Federwirkung auf die Platte bzw. auf den eingeführten Zapfen erreicht. Unerwünschtes Verkanten wird somit vermieden.In a further expedient embodiment, the socket has two opposing recesses, in each of which an acting as a spring S-shaped web is arranged. Thus, a stable attachment of the plate is provided on the webs and achieved a uniform spring action on the plate or on the inserted pin. Unwanted tilting is thus avoided.
In einer weiteren Ausführung besitzt die Buchse zumindest ein weiteres Federelement, welches den Zapfen in horizontaler Richtung zum Gehäuseinneren drückt. Auf diese Weise wird mit der Buchse eine dauerhafte Anlage des Blendenteils an der Frontwand und gleichzeitig an den vorderen Rand des Gehäusedeckels bereitgestellt.In a further embodiment, the bush has at least one further spring element, which presses the pin in the horizontal direction to the housing interior. In this way, with the bushing a permanent contact of the panel part is provided on the front wall and at the same time to the front edge of the housing cover.
In einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung ist das zweite Federelement als eine in einer seitlichen Aussparung der Buchse angeordnete Blattfeder ausgeführt, die gegen den vorderen Rand der Öffnung in der Abkantung der Frontwand drückt und dadurch auf die Buchse mit dem eingesteckten Zapfen eine horizontal zur Innenseite des Gehäuses gerichtete Kraft bewirkt. Auf diese Weise kann die Blattfeder einstückig an dem Mantel der Buchse angeformt werden, wobei sie zusätzlich mit einer Rastnase versehen werden kann, um die Fixierung in der Aufnahmeöffnung bereitzustellen und somit zwei Funktionen erfüllt.In an advantageous development, the second spring element is designed as a arranged in a lateral recess of the bushing leaf spring which presses against the front edge of the opening in the fold of the front wall and thereby on the socket with the inserted pin a horizontally directed to the inside of the housing force causes. In this way, the leaf spring can be integrally formed on the jacket of the socket, where they can be additionally provided with a detent to provide the fixation in the receiving opening and thus fulfills two functions.
