Definitions

  • the invention relates to a household appliance with a vibration damping device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Washing machines and dryers with a laundry drum rotatably mounted in a tub usually have a vibration damping device which connects the tub with the housing.
  • vibration damping device By means of the vibration damping device, vibrations and noises caused by the rotational movement of the drum are damped.
  • the vibrations of the tub are received by means of a cylinder-piston device of the vibration damping device.
  • the DE 14 60 968 A1 describes a friction damper for laundry washing machines, wherein jaws rub on a metal plate which is fixed to a damped, movable assembly.
  • the jaws supporting arms are mounted on an intermediate holder which is pivotable about an axis parallel to the plane of the metal plate, wherein the pivoting of the intermediate holder can be braked by interposition of a friction lining.
  • the JP 1111 4280 A describes a washing machine with a damper, which is mounted in a direction perpendicular to the axis of rotation slidably mounted on the housing of the washing machine.
  • WO 2007/013021 A1 is another household appliance with a cylinder-piston device known as vibration damping device which connects a tub to the housing bottom of the household appliance.
  • the cylinder-piston device is slidably mounted on the housing bottom, whereby a limited sliding movement of the cylinder-piston device along the housing bottom is made possible. In this way, at least a part of the operational vibrations of the tub in a linear sliding movement of the cylinder-piston device being transformed.
  • a disadvantage of such a vibration damping device is relatively complex.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a household appliance with a simple assembly and component technically simple solution for a vibration damping device.
  • the support element in the household appliance, in particular washing machine or dryer, with a housing in which a laundry drum is rotatably mounted in a tub, which is connected via at least one support element of a vibration damping device to the housing, articulated the support element with the interposition of a pivot lever on the housing wherein the pivoting lever and / or the support element is pivotable by overcoming a predetermined for damping vibrations of the tub due to the frictional force.
  • operational vibrations of the tub in the direction of extension of the support element can be transferred to the pivot lever.
  • the oscillations or vibrations introduced into the support element are at least partially converted into rotational movements by means of the pivoting lever, so that the oscillations can be at least partially damped by a pivoting of the pivoting lever.
  • a vibration damping device is easy to implement component technology.
  • the pivot lever is articulated to the housing via a first rotary joint about a first housing side wall fixed pivot axis.
  • the assembly process can be simplified because certain components of the first pivot can be pre-assembled on the housing.
  • the connection of the tub with the housing on the vibration damping device can thus be easily configured montagetechnisch.
  • the pivot lever is articulated about a second pivot about a pivotable relative to the housing pivot axis on the support element.
  • the support element is with a Fixed container third pivot on the tub. This arrangement represents a technically particularly simple solution for pivoting the support element and thus for damping operational oscillations of the tub.
  • the pivot lever and / or the support element is pivotable by overcoming a predetermined friction force.
  • at least one of the swivel joints can have an increased frictional resistance.
  • at least a part of the vibration-caused translational energy can be converted into frictional energy.
  • the first, second and / or third rotary joint has a bearing bush in which at least one bearing journal is rotatably mounted with an interference fit.
  • a reliable and maintenance-free configuration of one or more swivel joints can be realized.
  • the bearing journal of the first rotary joint can be secured against rotation on the pivot lever.
  • the journal may be tubular, and is made of thermally conductive, especially metallic, material, so that the temperature is dissipated quickly to extend the life of the friction layers.
  • the first pivot axis is at a high height away from a home appliance floor. In this way, a cavity is released under the tub, in which one can have sufficient space for other equipment components, such as a drawer, in which the user can load the articles he wants, or to reduce the overall height of the device.
  • the first pivot axis connects by means of a carrier to the housing in order to give the housing structure rigidity.
  • the carrier may be a crossbar which is attached to the corners of the side wall so as not to contact them and not transmit the vibrations to them. In this way, vibrations are better absorbed.
  • the carrier may even be a journal which extends in the direction of the first pivot axis to the device ends and where the pivot lever is connected. This also achieves a more flexible carrier.
  • the support element and / or the pivot lever can be rigid components.
  • the complexity of the vibration damping device can thereby be further reduced.
  • manufacturing technology simple components can be used. They can also be made of a rigid material, but which has sufficient elasticity to withstand the friction caused by the rotation.
  • the length of the support member may be equal to or greater than a length of the pivot lever.
  • the tub may have projections having a distance from the axis of rotation of the drum connection with the support member allow it to be shorter. Thus, a torque acting on the first rotary joint by the pivoting lever can be reduced.
  • the support element or a force action line of the support element can be spaced by an effective lever arm length from the first pivot joint.
  • the effective lever arm length is perpendicular to the force of action line and may vary due to the operational vibrations in the tub.
  • At least two support elements arranged on both sides of the container can support the tub.
  • the support elements can be implemented a reliable damping of the vibrations of the tub.
  • a washing machine 1 with a housing 3 is shown.
  • a door 7 for closing a feed opening 9 is provided on a front housing wall 5 of the housing 3.
  • the appliance door 7 is shown in an open position, so that through the charging opening 9 of the housing wall 5 through a laundry drum 11 is visible for moving laundry items not shown here.
  • the Fig. 2 shows a tub 13 of the washing machine 1 from the Fig. 1 along the cutting plane AA.
  • the laundry drum 11 is mounted in the tub 13 rotatably about an axis of rotation 15 and driven by a drive motor 25.
  • the power transmission takes place by means of a belt 27, which is connected to a rotatably connected to the rear wall of the laundry drum 11 driven pulley 29 in engagement.
  • the tub 13 is suspended by two springs 17 on a ceiling wall 19 of the housing 3.
