Definitions

  • the invention relates to a front-loadable laundry treatment machine having a housing, having a substantially circular housing opening, which can be closed by a door, and a tub, which is attached in a swinging manner in the housing and has a substantially circular opening and a sealing cuff, which is arranged for connection between the housing opening and the tub opening.
  • the sealing sleeve is slipped onto a circumferential edge around the housing opening and this everted portion cooperates with a clamping element designed as a clamping element, and wherein in this area a circumferential door opening directed to the sealing lip is arranged for the door.
  • a gasket for sealing connections in household appliances is known, which is arranged for connection between the front housing wall and the tub portion.
  • the gasket is provided at the housing opening with an annular clamping element.
  • the clamping element is pre-assembled in this embodiment of the prior art in the interior of the portion to be fastened of the sleeve, in order to reduce the installation effort on site considerably in this way.
  • the gasket is slipped over a circumferential fold, wherein the everted portion cooperates with a clamping element designed as a clamping element.
  • a clamping element which braces the door seal in a circumferential groove or fold in the radial direction. Due to the distance between the force application points in the area of the sealing lip and the force output to the clamping ring axial and radial compressive forces must be absorbed by the elastomer. Due to the material, this leads to buckling and thus to a poor dimensional stability of the over-turned region, as a result of which the sealing lip becomes unstable or changeable with respect to its position. In addition, the dimensional stability of the elastomer is deteriorated by the long-term action of alkali and washing temperature. This can lead to leaks in the transition between the sealing lip of the door seal and the door sight glass with increased life.
  • the invention thus raises the problem of improving the dimensional stability of the gasket, and here in particular in the binding region on the circumferential fold of the housing opening, in terms of stability, in order to achieve an increased life and reliable tightness in this way.
  • the advantages achieved by the invention are that as a result of an additional, separate and inexpensive to produce stabilization element of the connection area of the sleeve is significantly stabilized at the fold of the housing opening, because a positive connection of the stabilizing element gives the sealing ring adapted supporting position, which also has an additional Stabilization of the sealing lip provides.
  • the stabilizing element cooperates with the wire ring, which can be easily mounted on the stabilizing element as an assembly for fixing the door ring on the housing front wall.
  • the stabilizing element is designed so that it can be extruded as a plastic profile and deformed due to a one-sided accumulation of material when cooling according to the cylindrical shape of the door seal, so that the extruded profile after cooling assumes a ring shape that can be very easily connected to the clamping ring.
  • an at least approximately circulating stabilizing element is advantageously stabilizingly attached to the everted region of the sealing collar, which stabilizer accommodates the clamping ring and supports the over-pushed region.
  • the stabilizing element is formed in cross-section substantially V-shaped, so that it with its legs in the likewise V-shaped everted portion of the gasket, which is the Inner side of the fold of the housing extends, at least almost completely rests. This results in an at least almost positive fit especially in the area of the edge of the sleeve at the fold.
  • the free ends of the legs of the stabilizing element are each angled outwardly.
  • the angled region affects about 25% to 50% of the respective leg length of the stabilizing element in cross section.
  • the leg ends correspond approximately to the shape of the collar edge, so that continues in this area, the positive connection to the collar edge.
  • the clamping ring between the legs on the inside in the region of the tip of the V-shaped cross section of the stabilizing element is arranged.
  • each locking lugs are integrally formed on the inside of the legs.
  • the stabilizing element consists of an extruded plastic extruded profile, which is substantially annular, wherein the tip of the V-shaped cross section is radially inward.
  • the clamping ring thus pushes the wedge shape in the predetermining fold.
  • the stabilizing element has a substantially symmetrical cross-section over the circumference.
  • it can be placed in any position, based on the circumference, on the over-protuberance of the sleeve and provided with the clamping element.
  • FIG. 1 shows in the cut, sketched representation of a front loadable laundry treatment machine 1 with a housing 2. It is with a door 3 a substantially circular housing opening 4 closed. At the housing opening 4 is a sealing sleeve 5 via a peripheral fold 6, shown in the detail view of FIG. 2 slipped, wherein in this area a circumferential sealing lip 7 for the door 3 and for the sight glass 3a of the door 3 is arranged. As from the cut representation of the FIG. 1 becomes clear, the gasket 5 bridges the area between the housing opening 4 and a tub opening 8, wherein in the tub 9 itself a rotatably mounted and drivable by a motor 11 drum 10 is arranged.
  • the gasket 5 is slipped onto a circumferential around the housing opening 4 fold 6, said over-turned portion 12 cooperates with a tensioning ring designed as a clamping element 13.
  • the door opening directed sealing lip 7 is arranged for the door 3 in this area.
  • an at least approximately circumferential stabilizing element 14 is arranged on the side facing away from the fold 6. In this case, the stabilizing element 14 settles in a stabilizing manner on the outside of the slipped-over region 12.
  • the stabilizing element 14 receives the clamping ring 13 and supports at least almost the entire everted region 12, which is pressed by the clamping ring 13 in the V-shaped circumferential fold 6.
  • the stabilizing element 14 is formed in cross-section substantially V-shaped.
  • the stabilizing element 14 rests with its legs 15 and 16 on the region 12 of the sealing collar 5, which is likewise pulled over in a V-shaped manner, such that it extends to the inside of the fold 6 of the housing 2 and covers it at least almost completely.
  • Fig. 4 is clarified that the stabilizing element 14 receives the force acting on the predetermined bending points 7a forces of the sealing lip 7, so that caused deformations in the over-protuberance region 12 and in the planar region avoided or at least minimized.
  • the free ends or the end portions of the legs 15 and 16 are each angled outwardly. So it is clear that, for example, when the sealing lip 7 is under load, as in the FIG. 4 is shown in the closed position of the door 3, the deformation of the edge region of the gasket 5 is reduced by the projecting beyond the fold 6 area is supported by the free leg 15 with its angled portion. The angled portion of the free leg 15 in this case extends beyond the fold 6, so that the everted portion 12 is detected above the fold 6 with.
  • the clamping ring 13 is arranged between the legs 15 and 16 on the inside in the region of the tip 17 of the V-shaped cross section of the stabilizing element 14.
  • 15 and 16 each locking lugs 18 and 19 are integrally formed on the inside of the legs, which are executed segmentally or completely circumferentially.
  • the stabilizing element 14 consists of an extruded plastic extruded profile, which is formed substantially annular, wherein the material accumulation in the tip 17 of the V-shaped cross-section, this aligns radially inward.
  • the self-alignment occurs during the manufacturing process and is caused by the increased shrinkage at the sites of accumulation of material during cooling. This effect is used here for the shaping of the annular stabilizing element 14.
