Definitions

  • This invention relates in general to connection to mains of household electrical appliances.
  • a drawback of this solution is the fact that the cable 1 may be substituted only by experts by dismounting the casing 2 of the appliance. Moreover, the kind of plug 4 to be inserted in the supply socket depends on the country, thus it is necessary to differentiate the production depending on the destination country.
  • a more flexible way has been found of connecting to the electric mains an electric power distribution block to the circuits of a household appliance through a detachable cable such that it may be substituted with a cable having a terminal plug of a type adapted to the standard of the destination country, without having to remove the external casing of the appliance or part of which, though ensuring at the same time a splash and drip proof connection effectively shrouded from water or other liquid that may wet the outer surface of the casing.
  • a typical internal electric power distribution block of the appliance generally made of molded plastic and embedding or equipped with metal interconnections, through which are powered functional circuits, motors, moto-compressors, microprocessors, programming, control and/or safety devices of the appliance.
  • a standard IEC socket/plug is integrated on a planar side of the molded body of the power distribution block, the perimeter of which extends to constitute a flange-plate around the triplet of metal conductors of the socket/plug.
  • a collar integral to the flange-plate through which the conductors of the standard IEC /socket/plug protrude, of size suitable to accommodate at least part of a standard IEC angular socket plugged into the integrated IEC socket/plug, rises from the planar surface of the flange-plate.
  • the rim of the collar has a half-circular cut through which the flexible isolated connection cable to the electric mains passes.
  • a box-like plastic cover of size adapted to slip over the collar has a similar half-circular cut in its rim adapted to cooperatively match with the cut in the rim of the collar in order to clamp in a guillotine fashion the cable when the cover is forcibly pressed as far as establishing a stable engagement of matching lock means in the two bodies that are thus stably and permanently united.
  • the two joined parts are not separable without using a tool, and effectively shroud in a splash and drip proof enclosure the connection between the fixed (integrated) IEC socket/plug and the detachable IEC terminal socket of the connection cable.
  • the novel power distribution block is installable in household electric appliances in correspondence of a purposely realized opening of their external casing, that is closed by the flange-plate integral with the distribution block, leaving externally accessible the protection box of the coupling between the angular detachable socket to the integral plug.
  • the box-like cover is fixed to the collar through a stable union with a clamp of the box-like bodies, i.e. the cover and the collar, determined by the clamping of appropriate protrusions of the coupling surface of one in matching grooves of the other.
  • the covering is fixed to the collar by means of winglets with holes on the external sides of the box-like cover and tightening screws of the winglets of the flange-plate.
  • the novel block 6 has a molded body 7, containing the distribution circuitry to internal circuits of the household appliance, such as for example an EMI filter, and connection terminals 8, that may be either four "fastons" connectors as shown or connectors of different type and/or number, to be fixed depending on the household appliance.
  • EMI filter an EMI filter
  • connection terminals 8 that may be either four "fastons" connectors as shown or connectors of different type and/or number, to be fixed depending on the household appliance.
  • the block 6 has a flange-plate 5 that will be installed for covering an opening of an external casing of the household appliance, such to close the molded body 7 inside the household appliance.
  • these locking means may be protrusions 14 on the outer sides of the collar 10 that match corresponding grooves 15 on the inner sides of the box-like cover 11. In this way the box-like cover may be removed only by using a tool, whenever it is necessary for freeing the angular socket/plug 9 for substituting the connection cable to the electric mains.
  • the novel distribution block may be equipped with an external or internal grounding metal flag 16, to be connected to the external casing of the household appliance.
  • an external or internal grounding metal flag 16 it is possible to install a cable connected to the external casing.
  • FIG. 3 Another embodiment of the novel distribution block 6 is shown in FIG. 3 , wherein the parts corresponding to those of the block of FIG. 2 are labeled with the same reference numerals.
  • the locking means are constituted by winglets with holes 17, that are fixed to the flange-plate 5 by means of screws in the holes 18a and 18b.
  • FIG. 4a shows how the collar 10 and the cover 11 enclose the angular socket/plug, thus creating a protrusion inside the box-like enclosure that prevents liquids, that may wet the external surface of the casing, from reaching the conductors of the angular socket/plug 9.
  • FIG. 5 shows schematically a household appliance 3 with a distribution block as shown in FIG. 2 , the cover 11 being open, before connecting a supply cable to the standard IEC plug/socket 19.
  • the novel distribution block may be made of metal and/or plastic and may have any shape and size.
  • the height of the box-like cover 11 and of the collar 10 will be fixed depending on the encumbrance of the angular socket/plug 9.
