Definitions
- the invention relates to a laundry treatment machine with a housing and a front loading door and with a device for automatically metered adding one of a plurality of treatment agents from storage containers in a current laundry treatment process.
- Such a laundry treatment machine is through W02003 / 027 377 A1 known.
- a self-contained metering device is accommodated in a cavity of the cabinet-shaped machine housing otherwise provided for a notorious detergent dispenser.
- Such a metering device has the disadvantage that it can regularly accommodate only one or a few reservoirs and their contents must be refilled very often.
- it is intended as a surrogate for the Waschstoffein Why styles, which means that either the Waschstoffein Albany styles or the metering device must be stowed unnecessarily in the home.
- the levels in their reservoirs are monitored only with increased technical effort.
- EP 1 884 584 A2 discloses a laundry treatment machine with a drawer in the lower area, which serves to accommodate detergent containers.
- a disadvantage of this solution is that the laundry treatment machine must be higher in order to make room for the additional container.
- the drawer closed the containers are hidden, and the level is not easy to read.
- the invention has for its object to form reservoir so and so on or in the laundry treatment machine - washing machine or dryer - accommodate that they are easy to fill, that the Waschstoffeinêtleaned remain in place and can also be used alternatively and that with large capacity the reservoir an easily surveyed level monitoring is possible.
- this object is achieved by the characterizing part of claim 1 in such a way that the reservoir are formed from flat hollow bodies which are grouped within the projection of the front of the housing to the loading door.
- the reservoir as a flat, adapted in the form of the application hollow body are practically "piggyback" attached to the front of the cabinet-shaped machine housing and cover the front segmentally, so they can positively shape even the face of a laundry treatment machine in a suitable shape.
- the hollow bodies are formed with identical contours to the loading door, on the one hand, the available space is effectively used. In addition, this creates a closed image of the front of the laundry treatment machine.
- the user is given the opportunity to change the design of his laundry treatment machine by replacing the hollow body by being removably formed from the front of the housing.
- Such hollow bodies are, at least as long as they are sufficiently filled, also contribute to an acoustic calming of the rather large front surface of the machine housing.
- the hollow bodies have such a great depth that their front surface is at least approximately flush with the side projection of the loading door, a visually appealing front side can be formed by means of the hollow body.
- each hollow body is equipped for guiding fluids with at least one tubular coupling, of which at least one liquid-tight with the automatic metering device is connectable.
- such couplings can also serve to fix the hollow body on the front side, if according to a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention, the couplings have an outer shape which is formed for holding the hollow body on the front side of the housing. Then these couplings fulfill a dual purpose. At least that one coupling, through which the dosing is to be tapped, is then to be attached as deeply as possible to the hollow body.
- the coupling (s) are provided according to an advantageous development with a device that allows the liquid-tight completion of the coupling as soon as the hollow body is removed from the front. This is particularly advantageous when the conclusion is based on an automatic mechanism.
- This large hollow body can store several liters of a laundry treating agent sufficient for about half a year of use of the laundry treating machine.
- the hollow bodies have a closable refill opening in a position of the hollow bodies held on the front side as high as possible. In this way, the reservoir can be refilled without removing even from the front of the housing yet.
- the hollow body can equally serve as a transport container in the trade. Then the hollow body need only be replaced with newly acquired transport container. Under certain circumstances, the containers can thereby be placed in an empties circulation.
- the hollow bodies are made of a translucent material or have an at least translucent area on their front side. Then, the levels of the hung on the front of the container can be monitored at a glance.
- the front side 2 of their housing 1 can be seen, which contains a large loading door 3.
- the washing machine has on its left side a conventional Waschstoffein Kunststoff Road 5 and right of it a control panel 6 with selectors 7 and a display device 8 for adjustable treatment programs.
- a metering device is arranged, can be supplied from one or more storage containers during a treatment process treatment agent in individual metered doses of this process.
- hollow bodies 9 to 12 are segmentally grouped as a storage container for such a metering device. They have an inner edge 13 which is shaped to be equal to the edge of the loading door 3 and are adapted to the outer sides of the projection of the front side 2, thus closing flush with the side lines of the front side 2.
- the hollow bodies are also as deep as the loading door 3 rises from the front side 2. They therefore finish flush with the side projection of the loading door 3.
- the hollow body 12 is removed from the front side 2 of the housing 1 and can thereby recognize that it can be hung by means of pins 14 in the space provided for receiving openings 15 of the front.
- the other hollow body 9 to 11 are equally suspended.
- the pins 14 may be formed simultaneously as fluid couplings, which are fluidly connected in the coupled with the openings 15 position with a metering device disposed within the washing machine (not shown here).
- a metering device disposed within the washing machine (not shown here).
- the upper spigot can either secure an air supply or only as pure Be formed retaining element. Accordingly, the other hollow body 9 to 11 may be formed.
- the fold-out funnel 17 have. Since the hollow body 9 to 12 (as 12 just shows) are designed to be removable, each hollow body can of course also be remotely filled from the laundry treatment machine.
- washing machine are mounted only three hollow body 18 to 20 on the front side 2.
- the hollow body 18 extends over the entire width of the front side 2 and has to remove the treatment agent portions on both sides of the loading door 3 arranged at a low position clutches, of course, not recognizable here - because arranged on the back - are.
- the volumes of the hollow body 19 and 20 are as large as the hollow body 11 and 12 in Fig. 1 , But since the hollow body 18 is now larger than a single of the hollow body 9 or 10 in Fig. 2 , the volumes of the hollow bodies 18 to 20 in the washing machine of the Fig. 2 do not differ significantly from each other. In the case of a total of three different treatment agents, assuming equal frequent use, it is to be expected that all three containers will be refilled at the same time, so that the user can carry out this measure in one action.
- the solution according to the invention is also given when fewer or even more individual containers are grouped around the loading door and / or when the loading door has a different shape than the round, namely for example quadrangular with more or less rounded corners or oval.
- the containers can also have a long upright sight glass at only one vertical area, so that the surfaces of the hollow bodies are completely available for individual decoration.
- the sight glasses can be attached to the narrow side surfaces of the hollow body when they are visually accessible.
- the refill openings may be formed differently than shown. One will constructively adapt to the circumstances used in transport containers for treatment means in the design of such refilling openings.
Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Wäschebehandlungsmaschine mit einem Gehäuse und einer frontseitigen Beladetür sowie mit einer Einrichtung zum automatischen dosierten Beigeben eines von mehreren Behandlungsmitteln aus Vorratsbehältern in einen laufenden Wäschebehandlungsprozess.The invention relates to a laundry treatment machine with a housing and a front loading door and with a device for automatically metered adding one of a plurality of treatment agents from storage containers in a current laundry treatment process.
Eine solche Wäschehandlungsmaschine ist durch
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, Vorratsbehälter so zu formen und sie so an oder in der Wäschebehandlungsmaschine - Waschmaschine oder Trockenmaschine - unterzubringen, dass sie leicht befüllbar sind, dass die Waschmitteleinspüleinrichtung an ihrem Platz bleiben und auch alternativ benutzt werden kann und dass bei großem Fassungsvermögen der Vorratsbehälter eine leicht überblickbare Füllstandsüberwachung möglich ist.The invention has for its object to form reservoir so and so on or in the laundry treatment machine - washing machine or dryer - accommodate that they are easy to fill, that the Waschmitteleinspüleinrichtung remain in place and can also be used alternatively and that with large capacity the reservoir an easily surveyed level monitoring is possible.
Gemäß der Erfindung wird diese Aufgabe durch das Kennzeichen des Anspruches 1 in der Weise gelöst, dass die Vorratsbehälter aus flachen Hohlkörpern gebildet sind, die sich innerhalb der Projektion der Frontseite des Gehäuses um die Beladetür gruppieren.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the characterizing part of claim 1 in such a way that the reservoir are formed from flat hollow bodies which are grouped within the projection of the front of the housing to the loading door.
Dieser Vorschlag bedeutet, dass die Vorratsbehälter als flache, in der Form dem Einsatzgebiet angepasste Hohlkörper praktisch "im Huckepack" an die Frontseite des schrankförmigen Maschinengehäuse angehängt werden und die Frontseite segmentartig abdecken, wodurch sie bei geeigneter Ausformung sogar das Gesicht einer Wäschebehandlungsmaschine positiv prägen können. Wenn die Hohlkörper mit formgleichen Konturen zur Beladetür geformt sind, wird einerseits der zur Verfügung stehende Raum effektiv genutzt. Außerdem entsteht dadurch ein geschlossenes Bild der Frontseite der Wäschebehandlungsmaschine. Gleichzeitig wird dem Benutzer die Möglichkeit eröffnet, durch Austausch der Hohlkörper das Design seiner Wäschebehandlungsmaschine zu verändern, indem sie von der Frontseite des Gehäuses abnehmbar ausgebildet sind. Derartige Hohlkörper werden, zumindest solange sie genügend weit gefüllt sind, außerdem zu einer akustischen Beruhigung der ziemlich großen Frontfläche des Maschinengehäuses beitragen.This proposal means that the reservoir as a flat, adapted in the form of the application hollow body are practically "piggyback" attached to the front of the cabinet-shaped machine housing and cover the front segmentally, so they can positively shape even the face of a laundry treatment machine in a suitable shape. If the hollow bodies are formed with identical contours to the loading door, on the one hand, the available space is effectively used. In addition, this creates a closed image of the front of the laundry treatment machine. At the same time the user is given the opportunity to change the design of his laundry treatment machine by replacing the hollow body by being removably formed from the front of the housing. Such hollow bodies are, at least as long as they are sufficiently filled, also contribute to an acoustic calming of the rather large front surface of the machine housing.
Wenn in einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform die Hohlkörper eine so große Tiefe aufweisen, dass ihre frontseitige Oberfläche zumindest ungefähr bündig mit der Seitenprojektion der Beladetür ist, lässt sich mittels der Hohlkörper eine optisch ansprechende Frontseite ausbilden.If, in a further advantageous embodiment, the hollow bodies have such a great depth that their front surface is at least approximately flush with the side projection of the loading door, a visually appealing front side can be formed by means of the hollow body.
Zur Verbindung der Hohlkörper mit dem fluidischen System der Dosiereinrichtung innerhalb der Wäschebehandlungsmaschine ist jeder Hohlkörper zum Führen von Fluiden mit mindestens einer rohrförmigen Kupplung ausgestattet, von denen mindestens eine mit der automatischen Dosiereinrichtung flüssigkeitsdicht verbindbar ist. Gleichzeitig können solche Kupplungen auch zum Fixieren der Hohlkörper an der Frontseite dienen, wenn gemäß einer besonders vorteilhaften Gestaltung der Erfindung die Kupplungen eine äußere Form aufweisen, die zum Halten des Hohlkörpers an der Frontseite des Gehäuses ausgebildet ist. Dann erfüllen diese Kupplungen einen doppelten Zweck. Zumindest diejenige Kupplung, durch welche die Dosiermenge abgezapft werden soll, ist dann möglichst tief am Hohlkörper anzubringen.To connect the hollow body with the fluidic system of the metering device within the laundry treatment machine each hollow body is equipped for guiding fluids with at least one tubular coupling, of which at least one liquid-tight with the automatic metering device is connectable. At the same time, such couplings can also serve to fix the hollow body on the front side, if according to a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention, the couplings have an outer shape which is formed for holding the hollow body on the front side of the housing. Then these couplings fulfill a dual purpose. At least that one coupling, through which the dosing is to be tapped, is then to be attached as deeply as possible to the hollow body.
Damit die Hohlkörper ohne Gefahr des Verschüttens ihres Inhaltes von der Frontseite des Gehäuses abgenommen werden können, sind die Kupplung(en) gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung mit einer Vorrichtung versehen, die das flüssigkeitsdichte Abschließen der Kupplung ermöglicht, sobald der Hohlkörper von der Frontseite entfernt ist. Besonders vorteilhaft ist dies, wenn das Abschließen auf einem automatischen Mechanismus beruht.Thus, the hollow body can be removed without risk of spillage of its contents from the front of the housing, the coupling (s) are provided according to an advantageous development with a device that allows the liquid-tight completion of the coupling as soon as the hollow body is removed from the front. This is particularly advantageous when the conclusion is based on an automatic mechanism.
Das größtmögliche Volumen lässt sich für die Vorratsbehälter erzielen, wenn die Hohlkörper die Beladetür konturengleich umschließen. Sofern die Beladetür rund geformt ist, können die der Beladetür nahen Seiten der Hohlkörper dabei die Beladetür im immer gleichen Abstand bogenförmig umschließen.The largest possible volume can be achieved for the storage container when the hollow bodies surround the loading door in the same contour. If the loading door is round in shape, the sides of the hollow body near the loading door can enclose the loading door in an arcuate manner at the same distance.
Wenn an der Frontseite vier etwa gleich große Hohlkörper gleichmäßig verteilt sind, ist die Variabilität hinsichtlich der zu verwendenden Waschhilfsmittel für fast jede beliebige Wäschebehandlung ausreichend. Sollte doch noch einmal kein geeignetes Wäschebehandlungsmittel in den Vorratsbehältern vorliegen, dann kann über die weiterhin vorhandene und nutzbare Waschmitteleinspüleinrichtung in einer Waschmaschine auch ein Sonderprozess mit einem Spezialbehandlungsmittel durchgeführt werden.If four roughly equal hollow bodies are evenly distributed on the front side, the variability with regard to the washing aids to be used is sufficient for almost any laundry treatment. If, after all, there is no suitable laundry treatment agent in the storage containers, a special process with a special treatment agent can also be carried out in a washing machine via the detergent detergent dishwashing device which is still available and usable.
Um für die sogenannten Normalfälle auf lange Sicht gerüstet zu sein, empfiehlt sich eine Fortbildung, bei der die Frontfläche von zwei Hohlkörpern durch einen gemeinsamen großen Hohlkörper abgedeckt ist. Dieser große Hohlkörper kann mehrere Liter eines Wäschebehandlungsmittels speichern, die für etwa ein halbes Jahr Gebrauch der Wäschebehandlungsmaschine ausreichen.In order to be prepared for the so-called normal cases in the long term, a training is recommended in which the front surface of two hollow bodies is covered by a common large hollow body. This large hollow body can store several liters of a laundry treating agent sufficient for about half a year of use of the laundry treating machine.
In einer besonders beachtlichen Weiterbildung der Erfindung weisen die Hohlkörper in einer möglichst weit oben liegenden Position der an der Frontseite gehaltenen Hohlkörper eine verschließbare Nachfüllöffnung auf. Auf diese Weise können die Vorratsbehälter auch ohne Abnehmen von der Frontseite des Gehäuses noch gut nachgefüllt werden.In a particularly remarkable development of the invention, the hollow bodies have a closable refill opening in a position of the hollow bodies held on the front side as high as possible. In this way, the reservoir can be refilled without removing even from the front of the housing yet.
Alternativ dazu können die Hohlkörper gleichermaßen als Transportbehälter im Handel dienen. Dann brauchen die Hohlkörper nur noch gegen neu erworbene Transportbehälter ausgetauscht zu werden. Unter Umständen können die Behälter dadurch in einen Leergutumlauf gebracht werden.Alternatively, the hollow body can equally serve as a transport container in the trade. Then the hollow body need only be replaced with newly acquired transport container. Under certain circumstances, the containers can thereby be placed in an empties circulation.
In jedem Fall wäre es für den Benutzer einer erfindungsgemäß ausgestatteten Wäschebehandlungsmaschine von Vorteil, wenn die Hohlkörper aus einem transluzenten Werkstoff hergestellt sind oder einen wenigstens transluzenten Bereich an ihrer Vorderseite aufweisen. Dann können die Füllstände der an der Frontseite aufgehängten Behälter mit einem Blick überwacht werden.In any case, it would be advantageous for the user of a laundry treating machine equipped according to the invention if the hollow bodies are made of a translucent material or have an at least translucent area on their front side. Then, the levels of the hung on the front of the container can be monitored at a glance.
Die Merkmale des Kennzeichens des Anspruches 1 sind gemeinsam mit einzelnen oder mehreren Merkmalen der Unteransprüche sowie diese untereinander beliebig kombinierbar, ohne den Gedanken der Erfindung zu verlassen.The features of the characterizing part of claim 1, together with one or more features of the subclaims and these can be combined with one another as desired, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Anhand einiger in der Zeichnung dargestellter Ausführungsbeispiele ist die Erfindung nachstehend erläutert. Es zeigen:
-
Fig. 1 eine frontbeschickte Waschmaschine mit vier um die Beladetür gruppierten Hohlkörpern -
Fig. 2 eine Waschmaschine gemäßFig. 1 , die im oberen Bereich einen großen Hohlkörper trägt, der die Fläche von zwei einzelnen Körpern gemäßFig. 1 überdeckt.
-
Fig. 1 a front-loading washing machine with four hollow bodies grouped around the loading door -
Fig. 2 a washing machine accordingFig. 1 , which carries in the upper area a large hollow body, the surface of two individual bodies according toFig. 1 covered.
Von der Waschmaschine ist die Frontseite 2 ihres Gehäuses 1 zu sehen, das eine große Beladetür 3 enthält. Unterhalb der Arbeitplatte 4 hat die Waschmaschine auf ihrer linken Seite eine konventionelle Waschmitteleinspüleinrichtung 5 und rechts davon eine Bedienblende 6 mit Wahlelementen 7 und einer Anzeigeeinrichtung 8 für einstellbare Behandlungsprogramme. Innerhalb der Waschmaschine und daher in der Zeichnung nicht sichtbar ist eine Dosiereinrichtung angeordnet, durch die aus einem oder mehreren Vorratsbehältern während eines Behandlungsprozesses Behandlungsmittel in einzelnen abgemessenen Dosen diesem Prozess zugeführt werden können.From the washing machine, the
Um die Beladetür 3 herum sind als Vorratsbehälter für eine solche Dosiereinrichtung vier Hohlkörper 9 bis 12 segmentförmig gruppiert. Sie haben einen gleich zum Rand der Beladetür 3 geformten Innenrand 13 und sind an den Außenseiten der Projektion der Frontseite 2 angepasst, schließen also bündig mit den Seitenlinien der Frontseite 2 ab. Die Hohlkörper sind außerdem so tief, wie sich die Beladetür 3 von der Frontseite 2 erhebt. Sie schließen daher bündig mit der Seitenprojektion der Beladetür 3 ab. Der Hohlkörper 12 ist von der Frontseite 2 des Gehäuses 1 abgenommen und lässt dadurch erkennen, das er mittels Zapfen 14 in die dafür vorgesehenen Aufnahmeöffnungen 15 der Frontseite eingehängt werden kann. Die anderen Hohlkörper 9 bis 11 sind gleichermaßen aufgehängt.Around the loading door 3, four hollow bodies 9 to 12 are segmentally grouped as a storage container for such a metering device. They have an
Die Zapfen 14 können gleichzeitig als Fluid-Kupplungen ausgebildet sein, die in der mit den Öffnungen 15 gekuppelten Position mit einer innerhalb der Waschmaschine angeordneten Dosiereinrichtung (hier nicht dargestellt) fluidisch verbunden sind. Durch zumindest die unten dargestellte Kupplung kann der Inhalt des Hohlkörpers 12 von der Dosiereinrichtung portionsweise entnommen werden. Der obere Zapfen kann entweder eine Luftzufuhr sichern oder nur als reines Halteelement ausgebildet sein. Entsprechend können die anderen Hohlkörper 9 bis 11 ausgebildet sein.The
Abweichend hiervon können aber alle Zapfen mit einer Ausnahme als einfache Halteelemente ausgebildet sein, während der ausgenommene Zapfen 21 (
Zum Nachfüllen der Hohlkörper, die in diesem Beispiel übrigens aus transluzentem Material hergestellt sind, weshalb auch die einzelnen Füllzustände sehr gut zu beobachten sind, dienen in jeweiligen oberen Bereichen angeordneten Nachfüllöffnungen 16, die ausklappbare Trichter 17 haben. Da die Hohlkörper 9 bis 12 (wie 12 eben zeigt) abnehmbar ausgebildet sind, kann jeder Hohlkörper natürlich auch fern von der Wäschebehandlungsmaschine wieder befüllt werden.For refilling the hollow body, which are made in this example of the way of translucent material, which is why the individual filling conditions are very well observed, are used in respective upper areas arranged refilling 16, the fold-out

Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung ist auch dann gegeben, wenn weniger oder noch mehr einzelne Behälter um die Beladetür gruppiert sind und / oder wenn die Beladetür eine andere Form hat als die runde, nämlich beispielsweise viereckig mit mehr oder weniger abgerundeten Ecken oder oval. Sind beispielsweise nur zwei Hohlkörper vorgesehen, dann können diese auch mit einer senkrechten Fuge voneinander getrennt sein. Anstelle der vollständig aus transluzentem Material hergestellten Hohlkörper können die Behälter auch an nur einem vertikalen Bereich ein langes aufrecht angeordnetes Schauglas haben, so dass die Flächen der Hohlkörper vollständig für eine individuelle Dekoration zur Verfügung stehen. Beispielsweise können die Schaugläser an den schmalen Seitenflächen der Hohlkörper angebracht sein, wenn sie visuell zugänglich sind. Auch können die Nachfüllöffnungen anders als dargestellt ausgebildet sein. Man wird sich in der Ausgestaltung solcher Nachfüllöffnungen an die bei Transportbehältern für Behandlungsmittel verwendeten Gegebenheiten konstruktiv anpassen.The solution according to the invention is also given when fewer or even more individual containers are grouped around the loading door and / or when the loading door has a different shape than the round, namely for example quadrangular with more or less rounded corners or oval. For example, if only two hollow body provided, then they can be separated from each other with a vertical joint. Instead of the hollow bodies made entirely of translucent material, the containers can also have a long upright sight glass at only one vertical area, so that the surfaces of the hollow bodies are completely available for individual decoration. For example, the sight glasses can be attached to the narrow side surfaces of the hollow body when they are visually accessible. Also, the refill openings may be formed differently than shown. One will constructively adapt to the circumstances used in transport containers for treatment means in the design of such refilling openings.
