Description

The invention relates to a dishwasher, in particular a domestic dishwasher, according to the preamble of claim 1.

In mass production, a mounting technology simpler and time-saving assembly of a dishwasher of importance, the support structure carries in particular the washing and other equipment units.

A support structure of a dishwasher may have a mounting base as a support floor structure which has a hinge plate at its two front corner areas. The term assembly floor can, in particular also with regard to the invention, preferably also be understood to mean a floor assembly or base support assembly to which the washing container of the dishwasher is placed. In it, various functional components of the dishwasher such as a lye pump, circulating pump, control device, a power module, etc .. be housed. On the two hinge plates of the mounting base, on the one hand, the appliance door can be pivoted. On the other hand, the hinge plates can carry, support and / or fix the intermediate rinsing container arranged therebetween. In particular, a carrier frame part attached to the washing container in the region of its front-side feed opening can be fixed or fastened to it. If necessary, the washing container can also be supported on the back of the appliance directly on the mounting floor. The rinsing container can be made in two parts from an upper, in the cross-sectional profile viewed from the front U-shaped sheet metal hood, which forms the side, rear and top wall of the washing compartment, and a plastic bottom pan, which can be supported between the two hinge plates of the mounting base. The limited by the metal cover, front loading opening of the washing can be partially or completely wrapped by a support frame part along a front edge region, which is in particular made of plastic material. If necessary, this type of construction can also be used in a dishwashing machine according to the invention.

For example, Lifting the dishwasher, a top-side table top of the dishwasher or kitchen worktop or a ceiling wall of a niche can be attacked. The table top or worktop is usually connected directly to the support frame part, so that the lifting forces are forwarded to the connection points between the support frame part and the hinge plates. When lifting the dishwasher therefore both the lifting forces and in the opposite direction to the weight forces of the mounting floor act on these connection points. Accordingly, high demands are to be made on strength at these connection points.

When washing the dishwasher of the EP 0 711 527 A1 are on the two legs 11, 13 of the U-shaped "support frame 10" or support frame "bearing members 18, 19, ie hinged plates mounted only clamped.

In the DE 44 43 918 A1 are according to the passage in column 6, lines 43-55 (see also claim 18), the free ends 26 'of the frame legs 25' of over the front edge of the Spülbehälters 10'übergestülpten U-shaped frame 20 'with extensions 27'verbunden. These are "... in a below the washing container 10 'arranged mounting trough 7' received and from this, due to the location of receiving holes 8'für the extensions 27 ', braced".

In the US 4,359,250 in column 4, lines 29 - 31, only the very general statement "Hinge support flanges 82 are suitably secured to legs 64 and 66 just above cross member 78. Flanges 82 provides mounts for the door hinge assembly (not shown)".

The object of the invention is to provide a dishwasher with a stable supporting structure, with which a simple assembly is made possible.
The object is solved by the features of claim 1.
Characterized in that in the dishwasher according to the invention, in particular domestic dishwasher, with a washing container, in which a supporting frame part is mounted in the region of its front loading opening, wherein the support frame part is attached to at least one bottom support member, the support frame part of the washing through at least one latching connection with the bottom side support member is connected, a structurally simpler and easier assembly of the dishwasher according to the invention is provided.

The dishwashing machine according to the invention preferably has a supporting frame part which moves around a front loading opening of a washing container. This is in particular at least one base-side support member, preferably a bottom-side support strut, preferably a hinge plate of a mounting base attached. According to the invention, the support frame part is connected via at least one latching connection with the base-side support part, in particular the support strut. The support frame part or the support frame, which may be formed in particular one or more parts, can therefore be set in a simple manner during assembly on the support member, in particular the support strut of the mounting base and simultaneously locked so that additional assembly steps, such as for screwing the support strut on Support frame, can be omitted. It already alone, ie only the latching according to the invention for attachment of the support frame and the bottom side Bracket to satisfy each other. Other fixatives such as screws or rivets as in conventional designs of dishwashers that require a tool use, are now no longer necessary. The latching connection according to the invention advantageously allows a mounting-friendly plug-in movement of the support frame to the bottom-side support member during assembly of the dishwasher constructed according to the invention.

In particular, it may be expedient if in the dishwasher, in particular domestic dishwasher, with a rinsing container to which a support frame part is attached in the region of its front loading opening, wherein the rinsing container sits on a support base structure having a bottom-side support member, and wherein the support frame part on the is mounted on the bottom side support member, the support frame part of the washing and the bottom support member are fixed only by means of one or more snap-in connections in their assembly direction, in particular tool-free, aneinanderkoppelbar and in their final assembly position in the direction of separation against loosening. This facilitates the assembly of the dishwasher and at the same time reliably ensures the cohesion of their components flushing container and supporting floor structure.

To produce the latching connection, latching elements cooperating with each other may be provided both on the base-side support part, in particular the support strut, and on the support frame. The locking elements can be integrated materially and integrally with respect to a component reduction in each case on the support member, in particular the support strut, and on the support frame. The latching connection produced in this way can preferably be released again by applying a corresponding tool.

The connection point between the support frame part and the base-side support parts, in particular the hinge plates, is especially heavily loaded when the dishwasher is engaged in the upper area and then lifted. In this case, the entire weight of the fitted assembly components with device components acts on this connection point. In order to ensure a secure mounting of the support frame on the two bottom support members, in particular the support struts of the hinge plates of the mounting base, is the respective latching connection assigned in particular a height stop, which secures the support frame against loosening of the respective bottom-side support member, in particular of the respective support strut in the device vertical direction.

The height stop can be in a double function at the same time also a locking element of the locking connection. If the respective support strut is made of a sheet metal material, the latching element can be punched from the sheet material and bent as a sheet metal tab from the support strut. The sheet metal tab acting as a height stop can be underrun in the device pulling direction by the second latching element of the latching connection. With a vertical lifting of the dishwasher thus reliable inadvertent release of the support frame is prevented by the support strut. The second locking element may be executed in contrast to the above-mentioned sheet metal tab as an elastically resilient locking tab. The elastically yielding locking tab can escape when assembling the support frame with the support strut to build up a restoring force and overcome the rigid sheet metal tab in positionally correct positioning and reach behind this.

In order to assist a simple assembly of the support frame with the support strut, the support frame may expediently have a positioning shaft at its, the support strut end facing. In the assembled state, the support strut can protrude into the positioning shaft, while the positioning shaft can ensure a correct position positioning during the joining process.

To avoid accidental release of the latching connection, this is preferably protected from external mechanical stresses. It is particularly preferred if the latching connection between a side wall of the positioning shaft and the support strut is executed. In order to ensure a simple tool access to the locking connection, the support frame-side locking tab can be easily accessible in the, arranged in the device width direction outer side wall of the positioning shaft. In addition, a laterally accessible tool window can be provided in this outer side wall of the positioning shaft. The locking tab can be arranged directly on the lower edge of the window of this tool window.

The geometry of the positioning shaft is preferably designed such that it follows the shaping of the support strut contour of the respective support strut to be inserted therein. In particular, the positioning shaft may have a depth stop, which allows a substantially backlash-free contact between the support frame and the support strut in the depth direction of the washing container. In addition, the positioning shaft can have a side stop, which prevents movement play between the support frame and the support strut in the device width direction.

Preferably, the hinge plate or the support strut is formed from a sheet material having a sufficiently large sheet thickness in order to provide a required component stability. Accordingly, the sheet metal tab bent out of the respective support strut is in particular designed to be substantially rigid, while the respectively cooperating plastic bottle of the support frame part is elastically yielding in comparison thereto. To release the locking connection, therefore, the tool is preferably attached to the respective plastic tab.

For a play-free mounting of the support frame part, it may be particularly useful if the gap width of the positioning shaft is dimensioned small, that is approximately equal to the material thickness of the support strut. In this case, when assembling the positioning shaft is expanded under construction of a restoring force. In order to make the assembly largely disability-free, the support strut can have as an insertion aid a laterally projecting expression. The molded in the support strut expression is used to expand the positioning shaft during assembly. Preferably, the sheet metal tab can be molded directly in the laterally, in particular in the device width direction protruding expression.

Other advantageous developments of the invention are given in the dependent claims. These as well as the functional variants of the invention indicated above can be used individually or in any combination for advantageous embodiments of the construction of the dishwasher according to the invention.

The invention and its advantageous developments and advantages thereof are explained below with reference to drawings.

In the Fig. 1 is fragmentary and limited to a front, lower corner region of the dishwasher, a supporting floor structure viewed from the outside, which carries the washing compartment 1 of the dishwasher. Thus, the washing container 1 sits on this support structure. The Indian Fig. 1 In contrast, opposite front corner region of the dishwasher, which is not illustrated, is designed with a supporting floor structure which is designed as a mirror image of it.

Like from the Fig. 1 shows, the support structure of the washing container 1 has a mounting base 3 with laterally raised, circumferential side walls. In the mounting base 3 device components, such as a drain pump and / or a circulating pump, are arranged in a conventional manner. The mounting floor can also be in the form of a floor assembly or a base support structure be educated. The mounting base 3 is made for example of plastic and has according to the Fig. 1 an assembly shaft 5, in which a hinge support, in particular a hinge plate 7 is used as an upwardly projecting support strut. The hinge plate 7 is formed from a sheet metal blank and designed as a rigid, supporting member with a correspondingly large plate thickness. On the hinge plate 7 is hinged on the one hand in a bearing opening 9, an unillustrated hinge lever for a door, making it a in the Fig. 1 shown pivot axis A can pivot. On the other hand, in the exemplary embodiment, the two front hinge plates 7 here carry an interposed plastic base pan 11 of the washing container 1 Fig. 1 the bottom pan 11 has front angled side edges 13, which follow approximately the respective front edge profile of the two laterally mounted on the mounting base hinge plates 7 and are supported on the front edge 14 of the hinge plates 7.

In the present embodiment, the washing compartment 1 has a box-shaped, downwardly open sheet metal hood, which forms both the side walls, the rear wall and the top wall of the washing compartment 1. The sheet metal hood is therefore U-shaped viewed from the front, ie it has a front loading opening 17, which is bounded or bounded by laterally arranged in the width of the mounting base 3 transverse distance sidewall end faces and a roof wall front side and bottom open. In the Fig. 1 only one side wall 15 of the U-shaped sheet metal hood is indicated in dotted line. The front-side charging opening 17 of the washing compartment 1 is characterized by a in the Fig. 1 limited only in dashed line indicated plastic frame 18. The plastic frame 18 follows in particular the U-shaped contour of the front end face of the washing container 1.

The U-shaped plastic frame 18 is supported at its two, spaced apart in the width distance of the feed opening, lower leg ends both on the bottom pan 11 and on the hinge plate 7. In addition, the support frame 18 is connected via a latching connection 20 fixed to the hinge plate 7. The respective hinge plate 7 thus forms a support member for the U-shaped support frame 18 which is fixedly attached in the front region of the U-shaped Spülbehälterhaube. Of the locking connection 20 is in the Fig. 1 because of Clarity only a sheet metal tab 21 of the hinge plate 7 shown in accordance with the Fig. 2 and 3 with a plastic bottle 29 on the U-shaped plastic support frame 18 cooperates (see Figures 2-4 ). The locking connection 20 between the support frame 18 and the hinge plate 7 secures the support frame 18 of the washing compartment 1 against loosening of the hinge plate 7 in the peeling direction z upwards and is in the following Fig. 2 . 3 and 4 shown in more detail. Here in the exemplary embodiment, the respective hinge plate 7 has a preferably vertically upwardly projecting support leg 19 which is inserted into a positioning shaft 22 at the lower end of the plastic frame 18. For latching connection with the plastic frame 18, the support leg 19 at its upper portion in the device width direction x bent outward sheet metal tab 21. It stands out in the height and width direction z, x extending positional plane of the respective hinge plate 7 in the normal direction x to this. Her front end thus has in the width direction x considered a distance from the outer side surface of the hinge plate. The latching tab 21 is punched out of the sheet material of the hinge carrier 7. The latching tab 21 is located in an outwardly bulging expression 23 of the support leg 19. The latching tab 21 is preferably made by a material cut in the form of a plate-shaped hinge support member 7. Below the locking tab 21 in particular a window opening 36 is provided in the support member 7.

As already mentioned above, in the assembled state, the support leg 13 of the respective hinge plate 7 is inserted into a respective positioning shaft 22 in the associated side limb of the support frame 18. For this purpose, the respective positioning shaft 22 is executed in a vertical section in the plane defined by the width direction x and height direction z plane in an approximately U-shaped downwardly open. The inner contour course of the positioning shaft 22 is adapted to the contour of the support leg 19, in particular from the Fig. 3 is apparent. Accordingly, the support leg 19 in the plane spanned by the width and height direction x, z layer edge margins 25, 26 which are bent in the device width direction x in opposite directions and with respect to its extension plane in the depth and height direction y, z are bent at right angles. In the, in the Fig. 3 shown assembly position, these two edge webs 25, 26 of the support leg 13 are substantially free of play in corresponding groove portions 27, 28 of the Positionierschachtes 22 used as depth stops the support legs 19th Position in depth direction y. The base portion 24 of the support leg 19 which connects the two edge webs 25, 26 and extends in the y, z position plane is likewise inserted without clearance between the outer side wall 31 of the positioning shaft 22 and its inner side wall 31 ', as a result of which the support leg 19 is also in the device width direction x is positioned correctly.

In addition, the relies in the Fig. 1 shown top edge 33 of the respective support leg 19 on the bottom 34 of the respective associated U-shaped positioning shaft 22 from. In this way, the latching connection produced between the latching tabs 21, 29 is largely free of weight forces, which according to the invention can be absorbed mainly by the upper edge 33 of the support leg 19 and optionally in addition from the bottom pan 11.

In order to prevent detachment of the support frame 18 of the hinge plates 7 in the device vertical direction z, the bent-out sheet metal tab 29 of the hinge plate 7 is engaged by the corresponding plastic tab 29 of the support frame 18, as shown in the Fig. 2 . 3 and 4 is apparent. The plastic tab 29 is bent for this purpose in the device width direction x inward and in abutting connection with the bent-out sheet metal tab 21st

Like from the Fig. 2 and 3 Furthermore, in the device width direction x outer side wall 31 of the positioning shaft 22, an access window 37 is formed accessible from the outside in order to allow tool access for releasing the latching connection 20. At the bottom of the window 37 is in accordance with the Fig. 3 formed inwardly lifted plastic tab 29. To release the locking connection, the plastic tab 29 is to be bent outwards by means of a tool in the device width direction x.

To prepare a joining operation of the still separate support frame 18 and the hinge plates 7 are aligned with each other. Subsequently, the support frame 18 is placed on the support legs 19 of the respective hinge plate 7. In this case, the respective support leg 19 is inserted into the downwardly open Positionierschacht 22 of the respective associated side leg of the support frame 18. For easier positionally correct positioning of the respective positioning shaft 22 a An insertion aid in the form of a run-on slope 35, which merges into the groove portion 27 of the positioning shaft 22 and continues in this.

In the case of not yet exactly aligned components, the edge web 25 of the respective support leg 19 can therefore initially strike against the run-on slope 35 in the groove section of the respectively assigned positioning shaft 22 during assembly. In the further course of joining, the edge web 25 can then be guided in a positionally reliable manner into the groove section 27. At the same time, the inwardly bent plastic bottle 29 is displaced elastically outwards during the course of the joining in order to overcome the rigid, outwardly bent sheet metal tab 21. At the end of the joining process, the plastic tab 29 jumps back in the width direction x inwards to its rest position, in which the rigid sheet metal tab 21 is under attack.
FIG. 4 finally shows a vertical section through the latching connection of FIG. 3 along a to the plane of y, z of the hinge plate 7 of FIG. 3 vertical section plane II - II '. As the first latching element of the respective latching connection 20 is a, in particular substantially rigid, latching tab 21 is provided on the leg 19 of the respective hinge plate 7. In this case, the locking tab 21 is made by a material cut from the sheet material of the hinge plate 7. Below the locking tab 21 in particular a window opening 36 in the hinge plate 7 is provided (see FIG. 1 ). This first locking element 21 is engaged in the device vertical direction z of the second locking element 29 on the support frame part 18 when the two side legs of the support frame part 18 have been placed on the support legs 19 of the two hinge plates 7 and placed in their final assembly position. In the final assembly position of support frame part 18 and support member 7, the locking element 21 of the support member 7 is in a window opening 37 in the outside wall 31 of the profiled support frame part 7 from. The second latching element 29 is in the latching position of support frame part 18 and support member 7 opposite to the first latching element 21 and engages under this. It is directed obliquely upwards, while the first locking element is directed obliquely down to the free end of the second locking element 29 to. As a result, a hooking of the two locking elements against each other is ensured when 18 forces in the height direction upwards z are effective on the support frame part. The front end of the cross-engaging second locking element 29th on the support frame part 18 is then supported on the downward facing end of the fixed first latching element 21 of the support leg 19.

In summary, therefore, the support frame part 18 of the washing container 1 is connected via at least one locking connection 20 with the bottom-side support member 7 in a reliable manner. In particular, it can be ensured that the support frame part 18 of the rinsing container 1 and the base-side support part 7 are fixed in their assembly direction, preferably tool-free, and can be coupled together in their final assembly position in the direction of separation against loosening only by means of one or more snap-in connections 20.

The following advantageous developments may be appropriate:
The rinsing container such as 1 comprises, in particular, a front view of a U-shaped hood part, along the front-side edge region of the support frame part such as 18 is mounted. The bottom-side support member such as 7 is preferably formed as a support strut. The support strut is in particular formed by a hinge plate, which is attached to a supporting floor structure, in particular a mounting floor, below the washing compartment. The cooperating latching elements such as 21, 29 of the respective latching connection 20 are expediently of the same material and / or integrally on the bottom support member, in particular on a support strut, preferably hinge plate of the washing container supporting support structure, and / or integrated on the support frame part. The latching connection can be assigned in an advantageous manner a height stop, which secures the support frame part against loosening of the bottom-side support member in the device vertical direction. In this case, the height stop can be designed, in particular, as a first latching element, such as 21, on the base-side holding part, wherein the first latching element is, in particular, a rigid latching strap of the holding part. The first locking tab can be made in particular by a material cut in the support member. Below this locking tab, in particular, a window opening such as 36 may be provided in the support member. The height stop such as 21 on the support member is under attack in the device vertical direction z of a second locking element such as 29 on the support frame part such as 18, wherein the second locking element is in particular an elastically resilient locking tab of the support frame part. The first locking element such as 21 of the Holder part is in the final assembly position of support frame part and support member in a window opening such as 37 in the outside wall such as 31 of the support frame part from. In this Verrastungsposition the second locking element such as 29 is the first locking element such as 21 in the opposite direction and thereby engages this. Preferably, the support frame part at its two holding parts facing ends each have a positioning shaft such as 22, in which projects the respective leg end of the support member. In this case, the locking connection such as 20 is expediently carried out between an outer side wall such as 31 of the positioning shaft such as 22 and the support member. The respective positioning shaft of the support frame part expediently has at least one depth stop and / or one side stop such as 27, 28, which position the holding part in the device width and / or depth direction x, y. The ground such as 34 of the positioning shaft such as 22 of the respective leg of the U-shaped support frame part is supported in particular on the upper side of the respective support member. In this case, the latching element, in particular the latching tab such as 29, of the support frame part in a, in the device width direction x outer side wall such as 31 of the positioning shaft 22 is arranged. Appropriately, the outer side wall such as 31 of the positioning shaft such as 22 has a laterally accessible from the outside window such as 37, which allows a tool access to the locking connection. Preferably, the support frame part of a plastic material and the support member are formed of a sheet metal material. The gap width of the positioning shaft of the support frame part corresponds approximately to a material thickness of the support part. In particular, it may be expedient for the respective holding part to have a laterally protruding shape, such as, for example, 23, which serves as an insertion aid for inserting the holding part into the positioning shaft.
