Since the actuator has a round cross-section of 1 mm, it is structurally easily possible to inexpensively mount a corresponding receiving bore on the plunger (or an adapter which will be described later).
- the structure causes the damping cylinder to include the contact surface for abutment. Since the damping cylinder is often made of a plastic material, noises are effectively damped when in contact pedaling from the damping cylinder and stop.
- the damping cylinder is mounted on the plunger of the hinge. This structure is particularly advantageous when the diameter of the plunger and the damping cylinder are approximately equal, since then the adapter can consist of a piece of pipe in the simplest case.
- the plunger is permanently connected to the damper along the entire movement path of the plunger and thus firmly connected. A decoupling between the plunger and the damper is therefore not provided along the path of movement of the plunger. Under a firm connection of the plunger with the damper is to understand only the permanent mechanical coupling.
- a solid compound may in particular be mechanically non-destructive solvable. In this case, for example, a screw connection or the like may be provided.
- the plunger is connected directly to the damper or indirectly connected via other components.
- a unit formed of the plunger and the damper is positioned relative to a stop of the device and movable. This unit is arranged so that upon reaching a first movement position of the unit along the path of movement of the damper is brought from a non-contact position to the stop in contact with the stop. In the contacted position, further movement of the plunger along the path of travel is damped.
- a device which allows a very precise movement pattern and provides damping only over a portion of the entire path of movement.
- this device also ensures that a conventional hinge with a plunger and a compression spring can be used and can be connected to a damper.
- a conventional hinge with a plunger and a compression spring can be used and can be connected to a damper.
- known and conventional hinges can be retrofitted with such a damper and thus a simple and low cost, a corresponding movement damping a domestic appliance door can be achieved. This can be ensured in terms of the arrangement of the components and in particular the formation of the unit of the plunger and the damper and their related movement guide relative to the attack very advantageous.
- the damper is no longer fixedly arranged in the hinge, but connected in a motion-coupled with the plunger.
- a relative movement to other components of the hinge also sets itself through the entire unit, namely the plunger and the damper.
- the unit for supporting and guiding the damper relative to the plunger has an adapter.
- the adapter thus represents the link between the damper and the plunger.
- the damper may be surrounded by this adapter at least partially circumferentially, so that a certain protection of the damper is ensured by the adapter.
- the damper contacts the stop along the path of movement of the plunger and thus in particular the unit when the articulated arm has an angular position less than 30 °, in particular less than 20 ° relative to the axis of the plunger and the damper.
- the stop is integrated in the hinge.
- the stopper is a part of the hinge housing, in particular integrally formed in the hinge housing.
- the plunger, the damper and the stop are arranged in the axial direction in series.
- the hinge preferably has a rail-like hollow part as a hinge housing, in which at least the plunger and the damper are received.
- the stop is a wave-shaped embossing in a hinge housing of the hinge.
- the hinge housing is preferably formed of metal and therefore very robust and mechanically stable.
- the hinge housing is a door profile, which is an elongated, hollow leg.
- This door profile is glued in particular to an inner side of a glass pane of the door. Specifically, this is provided in ovens as household appliances, this door then also a plurality of such glass panes, which are spaced from each other, may have.
- the invention also relates to a method for actuating a domestic appliance door according to claim 12, wherein in particular a pivoting of the appliance door is provided via a bottom hinged horizontal pivot axis.
- the appliance door is connected to a device according to the invention and an advantageous embodiment thereof.
- the device is formed with a hinge which includes a rotatably mounted articulated arm and a relatively movable, spring-assisted plunger for assisting movement of the articulated arm, and a damper.
- the plunger is permanently connected to the damper along the path of travel of the plunger.
- a device, which is formed from the plunger and the damper, is moved relative to a stop of the device. Upon reaching a first movement position of the device along its path of movement of the damper is brought from a non-contact position to the stop in contact with the stop. In the contacted position, further movement of the plunger along the path of travel is then damped.
- the damper contacted with the stop will move from the contacted position into a position dependent on a certain angular position of the articulated arm and thus also on a certain angular position of the appliance door, which in turn is coupled with a certain movement position of the ram non-contact position over. Until the complete opening of the appliance door then the damper is arranged contactless to the stop.
- a hinge for a household appliance door is provided with a hinge arm rotatably mounted on the hinge and a spring-loaded plunger to support the movement of the articulated arm in at least a first end position, wherein the plunger is connected to a damper such that the damper in a movement of the articulated arm in the first end position can be brought into contact with a stop and thereby the said movement can be damped.

- the structure described is advantageous because this ensures that acting on the damper exclusively or at least presumptuous axial forces and thus increases the life of the damper.
- Another advantage results from the possibility to arrange the damper closer to the compression spring.
- it is essential not to expose the damper to high temperatures, as an oil damper usually used up to 150 ° C. is. Inadmissibly high temperatures are avoided if, with the oven door closed, the damper is arranged as far down as possible, ie directly in extension of the plunger, or in the vicinity of the spring.
- an adapter is used for the storage and management of the actuator or the damping cylinder relative to the plunger.
- the adapter is an additional component, it may still be advantageous because it allows the actuator or the damping cylinder out and protected against lateral forces.

- a viewing cover in front of the compression spring and the damper arranged be.
- said stop part of the hinge body which is inseparably connected to the appliance door - preferably glued - is. Since appreciable forces can be applied to the appliance door, the support of the hinge, which is glued to the door, made of a sufficiently strong sheet metal and it is therefore possible to form the stop on this part with a simple stamping and bending operation.
- the articulated arm can be connected to the compression spring inseparably connected to the hinge body.
- the stop may be part of the cover, which protects the compression spring and the plunger from the user and after removal
- This cover is the damper easily removable. This cover is also to be provided for design reasons and must be removed for service tasks. In order to Removal of the stop is automatically removed, the damper can be removed very easily and without an axial limit.
- a household appliance door has at least one and preferably two corresponding hinges and is used with a household appliance, in particular an oven.
- the household appliance door is opened folding down and the damper is located in partially open angular positions above the plunger so that it can not fall out due to gravity.

- the device 1 is in an analogous embodiment also parallel to the in Fig. 1 shown apparatus 1 is arranged on the other side of the inner pane 13, so that the oven door 70 is arranged and fixed by means of two such devices to other components of the oven, not shown, and is pivotable relative thereto.
- the device 1 comprises a hinge 10.
- the hinge 10 has an articulated arm 20.
- the articulated arm 20 mounted in the hinge 10 (and thus the entire door) is hung in a corresponding receptacle of the oven (not shown) and locked there.
- Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 For example, hinge 10 is shown in its closed position as the first end position. In such a first end position, the oven door 70 is closed. When the oven door 70 is opened, resulting in an opening angle of 30 °, the in Fig. 3
- the oven door 70 is further pivoted from this intermediate position into a second end position, which corresponds to a pivoting of the articulated arm 20 by 90 °. In this second end position, the oven door 70 is placed in a horizontal, completely releasing the oven interior position and thus fully open.
- the device 1 comprises a hinge housing 11 which in the exemplary embodiment additionally also has the same function as the door profile.
- This hinge housing 11 is an elongated, rail-like hollow profile.
- a plunger 35, a compression spring 30, an adapter 40 and a damper with a damper cylinder 50 and an actuator 52 are added.
- the compression spring 30 spirally surrounds the plunger 35.
- the plunger 35 is permanently connected to the damper over the entire actuation path of the plunger 35, so that the plunger 35 and the damper during the entire actuation path are always in contact.

At the position in Fig. 1 and 2 the compression spring 30 is maximally relaxed. In an open state of the door 70 or the partially opened state as shown in FIG Fig. 3 the plunger 35 has been moved in the direction of the articulated arm 20 to the left, whereby the compression spring 30 is pressed further together. As part of the weight compensation system, it counteracts the weight force of the oven door 70 as resistance. Due to the design a pure displacement movement or a combined displacement and pivoting movement of the plunger 35 may be provided.

- the damping cylinder 50 comes into contact with the abutment 60.
- This abutment 60 is an embossment formed integrally with the hinge housing 11, which is, for example, wave-shaped.
- This relates in particular to those movement sections of the oven door 70 in which it is opened> 25 ° relative to the vertical closed position.
- the damper 50, 52 causes a damping force, which counteracts the closing of the oven door 70, against the spring force of the compression spring 30 acts.
- the housing the damper 50, 52 is preferably made of plastic, so that no disturbing noise is generated in the contact contact from the damping cylinder 50 to the stop 60.
- the actuator 52 is inserted with a play or slight transition fit in the adapter 40, so that preferably both parts can move freely.
- the service employee can easily remove the damper in an open position of the oven door 70.
- he first removes the oven door 70 from the oven and then he opens the screw 32.
- he can the assembly of the male part 20 with the compression spring 30 and the plunger 35 to the left (see Fig. 1 ) and thus reaches the damper, which he can now easily remove.
- Gravity acts in the installation against an accidental displacement or falling out of the damper within the adapter. This is also prevented by the internal friction and spatial dimensions.
- the damper 50, 52 for example, in a transport of the oven does not fall out, since in this state, the oven door 70 is closed and thus the damper is axially braced.
- an adapter 40 is not absolutely necessary. Rather, the plunger 35 of the hinge 10 may have an axial blind hole (not shown) in which the actuator 52 of the damper is received. Also, (not shown) may be received in the adapter 40 instead of the actuator 52 of the damping cylinder 50, so that the actuator 52 comes into contact with the stopper 60.

Es ist Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Möglichkeit zur einfachen, flexiblen, optisch dezenten und platzsparenden Aufsatzdämpfung von Haushaltsgerätetüren bereitzustellen, wobei der Dämpfer auch für Servicezwecke gut erreichbar sein soll.It is an object of the present invention to provide a way to simple, flexible, visually discreet and space-saving essay damping of household appliance doors, the damper should also be easily accessible for service purposes.
Die Aufgabe wird durch eine Vorrichtung, eine Hausgerätetür, ein Hausgerät und ein Verffahren gemäß der unabhängigen Ansprüche gelöst.The object is achieved by a device, a domestic appliance door, a domestic appliance and a process according to the independent claims.
Eine erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung zur Bewegungsführung einer Hausgerätetür umfasst ein Scharnier, welches einen drehbar gelagerten Gelenkarm und ein relativ dazu bewegbaren, federunterstützten Stößel zur Unterstützung der Bewegung des Gelenkarms aufweist. Die Vorrichtung umfasst darüber hinaus auch noch einen Dämpfer zur Bewegungsdämpfung insbesondere des Stößels und damit gekoppelter weitere Komponenten der Vorrichtung und der Hausgerätetür.A device according to the invention for guiding the movement of a domestic appliance door comprises a hinge which has a rotatably mounted articulated arm and a spring-supported plunger movable relative thereto for supporting the movement of the articulated arm. The device also includes a damper for motion damping in particular the plunger and thus coupled further components of the device and the appliance door.
Der Dämpfer umfasst einen Betätiger und einen Dämpfzylinder, und der Betätiger kann am Stößel gelagert sein. Insbesondere wird ein Öl- oder Luftdämpfer verwendet. Ein Dämpfer mit Dämpfzylinder ist geeignet, über einen Dämpfweg von bspw. 5 mm nennenswerte Dämpfkräfte aufzunehmen. Da der Betätiger einen runden Querschnitt von 1 mm aufweist ist, es konstruktiv einfach möglich, am Stößel (oder einem Adapter, der später noch beschrieben wird) eine entsprechende Aufnahmebohrung kostengünstig anzubringen. Zusätzlich bewirkt der Aufbau, dass der Dämpfzylinder die Kontaktoberfläche zum Anschlag beinhaltet. Da der Dämpfzylinder häufig aus einen Kunststoffmaterial gefertigt ist, werden Geräusche beim In-Kontakt-Treten vom Dämpfzylinder und Anschlag effektiv gedämpft.The damper includes an actuator and a damping cylinder, and the actuator may be mounted on the plunger. In particular, an oil or air damper is used. A damper with damping cylinder is suitable to record over a Dämpfweg of example. 5 mm significant damping forces. Since the actuator has a round cross-section of 1 mm, it is structurally easily possible to inexpensively mount a corresponding receiving bore on the plunger (or an adapter which will be described later). In addition, the structure causes the damping cylinder to include the contact surface for abutment. Since the damping cylinder is often made of a plastic material, noises are effectively damped when in contact pedaling from the damping cylinder and stop.
In einer alternativen Ausführungsform ist der Dämpfzylinder am Stößel des Scharniers gelagert. Dieser Aufbau ist insbesondere dann vorteilhaft, wenn die Durchmesser des Stößels und des Dämpfzylinders in etwa gleich sind, da dann der Adapter im einfachsten Fall aus einem Rohrstück bestehen kann.In an alternative embodiment, the damping cylinder is mounted on the plunger of the hinge. This structure is particularly advantageous when the diameter of the plunger and the damping cylinder are approximately equal, since then the adapter can consist of a piece of pipe in the simplest case.
Der Stößel ist mit dem Dämpfer entlang des gesamten Bewegungswegs des Stößels dauerhaft verbunden und somit fest verbunden. Eine Entkopplung zwischen dem Stößel und dem Dämpfer ist daher entlang des Bewegungsweg des Stößels nicht vorgesehen. Unter einer festen Verbindung des Stößels mit dem Dämpfer ist dabei lediglich die dauerhafte mechanische Kopplung zu verstehen. Eine derartige feste Verbindung kann insbesondere auch mechanisch zerstörungsfrei lösbar sein. Es kann hierbei beispielsweise eine Verschraubung oder dergleichen vorgesehen sein. Insbesondere kann auch vorgesehen sein, dass der Stößel mit dem Dämpfer direkt verbunden ist oder über weitere Komponenten indirekt verbunden ist.The plunger is permanently connected to the damper along the entire movement path of the plunger and thus firmly connected. A decoupling between the plunger and the damper is therefore not provided along the path of movement of the plunger. Under a firm connection of the plunger with the damper is to understand only the permanent mechanical coupling. Such a solid compound may in particular be mechanically non-destructive solvable. In this case, for example, a screw connection or the like may be provided. In particular, it can also be provided that the plunger is connected directly to the damper or indirectly connected via other components.
Eine Einheit gebildet aus dem Stößel und dem Dämpfer ist relativ zu einem Anschlag der Vorrichtung positioniert und bewegbar. Diese Einheit ist so angeordnet, dass bei Erreichen einer ersten Bewegungsstellung der Einheit entlang deren Bewegungsweg der Dämpfer von einer kontaktfreien Position zum Anschlag in Kontakt mit dem Anschlag gebracht ist. In der kontaktierten Position ist die weitere Bewegung des Stößels entlang des Bewegungswegs gedämpft.A unit formed of the plunger and the damper is positioned relative to a stop of the device and movable. This unit is arranged so that upon reaching a first movement position of the unit along the path of movement of the damper is brought from a non-contact position to the stop in contact with the stop. In the contacted position, further movement of the plunger along the path of travel is damped.
Es wird also eine Vorrichtung geschaffen, die ein sehr präzises Bewegungsmuster ermöglicht und eine Dämpfung nur über einen Teilabschnitt des gesamten Bewegungswegs bereitstellt.Thus, a device is provided which allows a very precise movement pattern and provides damping only over a portion of the entire path of movement.
Insbesondere gewährleistet diese Vorrichtung auch, dass ein herkömmliches Scharnier mit einem Stößel und einer Druckfeder verwendet werden kann und mit einem Dämpfer verbunden werden kann. Bei einer derartigen Ausgestaltung ist es daher auch möglich, dass bekannte und herkömmliche Scharniere mit einem derartigen Dämpfer nachgerüstet werden können und dadurch einfach und aufwandsarm eine entsprechende Bewegungsdämpfung einer Hausgerätetür erreicht werden kann. Dies kann im Hinblick auf die Anordnung der Komponenten und insbesondere der Bildung der Einheit des Stößels und dem Dämpfer und deren diesbezüglichen Bewegungsführung relativ zum Anschlag sehr vorteilhaft gewährleistet werden.In particular, this device also ensures that a conventional hinge with a plunger and a compression spring can be used and can be connected to a damper. In such an embodiment, it is therefore also possible that known and conventional hinges can be retrofitted with such a damper and thus a simple and low cost, a corresponding movement damping a domestic appliance door can be achieved. This can be ensured in terms of the arrangement of the components and in particular the formation of the unit of the plunger and the damper and their related movement guide relative to the attack very advantageous.
Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung ist somit auch der Dämpfer nicht mehr ortsfest in dem Scharnier angeordnet, sondern bewegungsgekoppelt mit dem Stößel verbunden. Dadurch stellt sich auch durch die gesamte Einheit, nämlich dem Stößel und dem Dämpfer, eine Relativbewegung zu anderen Komponenten des Scharniers ein.In the device according to the invention, therefore, the damper is no longer fixedly arranged in the hinge, but connected in a motion-coupled with the plunger. As a result, a relative movement to other components of the hinge also sets itself through the entire unit, namely the plunger and the damper.
Vorzugsweise ist vorgesehen, dass die Einheit zur Lagerung und Führung des Dämpfers gegenüber dem Stößel einen Adapter aufweist. Bei dieser Ausführung stellt der Adapter somit das Bindeglied zwischen dem Dämpfer und dem Stößel dar. Der Dämpfer kann durch diesen Adapter zumindest teilweise umfangsseitig umgeben sein, so dass auch ein gewisser Schutz des Dämpfers durch den Adapter gewährleistet ist. Vorzugsweise ist vorgesehen, dass der Dämpfer den Anschlag entlang des Bewegungswegs des Stößels und somit auch insbesondere der Einheit dann kontaktiert, wenn der Gelenkarm eine Winkelstellung kleiner 30°, insbesondere kleiner 20° gegenüber der Achse des Stößels und des Dämpfers aufweist.It is preferably provided that the unit for supporting and guiding the damper relative to the plunger has an adapter. In this embodiment, the adapter thus represents the link between the damper and the plunger. The damper may be surrounded by this adapter at least partially circumferentially, so that a certain protection of the damper is ensured by the adapter. It is preferably provided that the damper contacts the stop along the path of movement of the plunger and thus in particular the unit when the articulated arm has an angular position less than 30 °, in particular less than 20 ° relative to the axis of the plunger and the damper.
In einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung ist vorgesehen, dass der Anschlag in das Scharnier integriert ist. Vorzugsweise ist dabei vorgesehen, dass der Anschlag ein Teil des Scharniergehäuses ist, insbesondere integral in dem Scharniergehäuse ausgebildet ist.In an advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the stop is integrated in the hinge. Preferably, it is provided that the stopper is a part of the hinge housing, in particular integrally formed in the hinge housing.
Dadurch kann eine sehr bauteilminimierte Ausgestaltung geschaffen werden, welche darüber hinaus auch noch ohne Montagetoleranzen ausgebildet und angeordnet werden kann. Dadurch kann die Kontaktierung des Dämpfers mit dem Anschlag nochmals präzisiert werden und die zu dämpfende Bewegungsführung exakter erfolgen. Darüber hinaus kann über eine derartige Ausgestaltung der Anschlag auch mechanisch sehr stabil ausgebildet und positioniert werden, so dass sich auch hier auch bei vielzähliger Kontaktierung des Dämpfers mit dem Anschlag keine Verschleißerscheinungen ergeben. Darüber hinaus bleibt auch hier die positionssichere Anordnung gewährleistet.As a result, a very component-minimized design can be created, which, moreover, can also be designed and arranged without assembly tolerances. As a result, the contacting of the damper with the stop again specified be done and to be damped motion control more accurate. In addition, can also mechanically very stable formed and positioned on such an embodiment of the stop, so that there are no signs of wear here even with vielzähliger contacting the damper with the stop. In addition, the position-safe arrangement remains guaranteed here.
Insbesondere sind der Stößel, der Dämpfer und der Anschlag in axialer Richtung in Reihe zueinander angeordnet.In particular, the plunger, the damper and the stop are arranged in the axial direction in series.
Das Scharnier weist vorzugsweise ein schienenartiges Hohlteil als Scharniergehäuse auf, in dem zumindest der Stößel und der Dämpfer aufgenommen sind.The hinge preferably has a rail-like hollow part as a hinge housing, in which at least the plunger and the damper are received.
Insbesondere stellt der Anschlag eine wellenförmige Prägung in einen Scharniergehäuse des Scharniers dar. Das Scharniergehäuse ist vorzugsweise aus Metall ausgebildet und daher sehr robust und mechanisch stabil.In particular, the stop is a wave-shaped embossing in a hinge housing of the hinge. The hinge housing is preferably formed of metal and therefore very robust and mechanically stable.
In einer vorteilhaften Ausführung ist vorgesehen, dass das Scharniergehäuse ein Türprofil darstellt, welches ein länglicher, hohler Schenkel ist. Dieses Türprofil wird insbesondere an eine Innenseite einer Glasscheibe der Tür angeklebt. Speziell ist dies bei Backöfen als Hausgeräte vorgesehen, wobei diese Tür dann auch mehrere derartige Glasscheiben, die beabstandet zueinander angeordnet sind, aufweisen kann.In an advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the hinge housing is a door profile, which is an elongated, hollow leg. This door profile is glued in particular to an inner side of a glass pane of the door. Specifically, this is provided in ovens as household appliances, this door then also a plurality of such glass panes, which are spaced from each other, may have.
Des Weiteren betrifft die Erfindung auch ein Verfahren zum Betätigen einer Hausgerätetür gemäß Anspruch 12, wobei insbesondere dabei ein Verschwenken der Hausgerätetür über eine unten angeschlagene horizontale Schwenkachse vorgesehen wird. Die Hausgerätetür wird mit einer erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung und einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung davon verbunden. Die Vorrichtung wird mit einem Scharnier, welches einen drehbar gelagerten Gelenkarm und einen relativ dazu bewegbaren, federunterstützten Stößel zur Unterstützung der Bewegung des Gelenkarms, und einem Dämpfer ausgebildet. Der Stößel wird mit dem Dämpfer entlang des Bewegungswegs des Stößels dauerhaft verbunden. Eine Einrichtung, die aus dem Stößel und dem Dämpfer gebildet wird, wird relativ zu einem Anschlag der Vorrichtung bewegt. Bei Erreichen einer ersten Bewegungsstellung der Einrichtung entlang deren Bewegungsweg wird der Dämpfer von einer kontaktfreien Position zum Anschlag in Kontakt mit dem Anschlag gebracht. In der kontaktierten Position wird die weitere Bewegung des Stößels entlang des Bewegungswegs dann gedämpft.Furthermore, the invention also relates to a method for actuating a domestic appliance door according to
Da gerade beim Öffnen und Schließen der Tür auch die Bewegung des Stößels mit der Bewegung des Gelenkarms gekoppelt wird, überträgt sich somit diese gedämpfte Bewegung des Stößels bis in eine geschlossene Endlage der Hausgerätetür und somit auch eine geschlossene Endstellung des Stößels auf den Gelenkarm.Since just when opening and closing the door and the movement of the plunger is coupled to the movement of the articulated arm, thus transmits this damped movement of the plunger into a closed end position of the appliance door and thus a closed end position of the plunger on the articulated arm.
Wird die Hausgerätetür dann wieder geöffnet, so geht der mit dem Anschlag kontaktierte Dämpfer abhängig von einer gewissen Winkelstellung des Gelenkarms und somit auch von einer gewissen Winkelstellung der Hausgerätetür, die dann wiederum mit einer gewissen Bewegungsstellung des Stößels gekoppelt ist, von der kontaktierten Position in eine kontaktfreie Position über. Bis zur vollständigen Öffnung der Hausgerätetür ist dann der Dämpfer kontaktfrei zu dem Anschlag angeordnet.If the appliance door is then reopened, the damper contacted with the stop will move from the contacted position into a position dependent on a certain angular position of the articulated arm and thus also on a certain angular position of the appliance door, which in turn is coupled with a certain movement position of the ram non-contact position over. Until the complete opening of the appliance door then the damper is arranged contactless to the stop.
Erfindungsgemäß wird ein Scharnier für eine Hausgerätetür mit einem am Scharnier drehbar gelagertem Gelenkarm und einem federunterstützten Stößel zur Unterstützung der Bewegung des Gelenkarm in zumindest eine erste Endlage bereitgestellt, wobei der Stößel mit einem Dämpfer derart verbunden ist, dass der Dämpfer bei einer Bewegung des Gelenkarms in die erste Endlage in Kontakt zu einem Anschlag bringbar ist und dadurch die genannte Bewegung dämpfbar ist. Ein Vorteil dieser Konstruktion sind die geringen Kosten verglichen mit bekannten Ausführungsformen, da erfindungsgemäß entweder am Stößel eine Aufnahme für den Dämpfer vorgesehen ist oder aber ein kostengünstiger Adapter, wie ein einfaches Spritzgussteil, zwischen geschaltet sein kann. Dies ist kostengünstiger als die aus dem Stand der Technik bekannte Lagerung des Dämpfers im Gehäuse des Scharniers. Bei der Entnahme der Baugruppe des Steckteils, der Druckfeder und des Stößels aus dem Scharniergehäuse wird der Dämpfer ebenfalls entnommen. Dies erleichtert die Arbeit im Servicefall.According to the invention, a hinge for a household appliance door is provided with a hinge arm rotatably mounted on the hinge and a spring-loaded plunger to support the movement of the articulated arm in at least a first end position, wherein the plunger is connected to a damper such that the damper in a movement of the articulated arm in the first end position can be brought into contact with a stop and thereby the said movement can be damped. An advantage of this design is the low cost compared to known embodiments, since according to the invention either a receptacle for the damper is provided on the plunger or a cost-effective adapter, such as a simple injection molded part, can be interposed. This is less expensive than the known from the prior art storage of the damper in the housing of the hinge. When removing the assembly of the male part, the compression spring and the plunger from the hinge housing, the damper is also removed. This facilitates the work in case of service.
Ein weiterer Vorteil ergibt sich aus der Bewegung des Stößels. So kann bauartbedingt der Stößel entweder mit einer ausschließlichen axialen Bewegung oder einer kombinierten Schiebe- und Schwenkbewegung auf die Bewegung des Gelenkarms reagieren. Gerade im letztgenannten Fall ist der beschriebene Aufbau vorteilhaft, da dieser sicherstellt, dass auf dem Dämpfer ausschließlich oder zumindest vornehmend axiale Kräfte wirken und sich so die Lebensdauer des Dämpfers erhöht.Another advantage results from the movement of the plunger. Thus, due to the design of the ram react either with an exclusive axial movement or a combined sliding and pivoting movement on the movement of the articulated arm. Especially in the latter case, the structure described is advantageous because this ensures that acting on the damper exclusively or at least presumptuous axial forces and thus increases the life of the damper.
Ein weiterer Vorteil ergibt sich durch die Möglichkeit, den Dämpfer näher an der Druckfeder anzuordnen. Im Anwendungsfall eines Backofens ist es wesentlich, den Dämpfer nicht zu hohen Temperaturen auszusetzen, da ein Öldämpfer üblicherweise bis 150°C einsetzbar ist. Unzulässig hohe Temperaturen werden dann vermieden, wenn bei geschlossener Tür des Backofens der Dämpfer möglichst weit unten, also direkt in Verlängerung des Stößels, bzw. in der Nähe der Feder, angeordnet ist.Another advantage results from the possibility to arrange the damper closer to the compression spring. In the application of a baking oven, it is essential not to expose the damper to high temperatures, as an oil damper usually used up to 150 ° C. is. Inadmissibly high temperatures are avoided if, with the oven door closed, the damper is arranged as far down as possible, ie directly in extension of the plunger, or in the vicinity of the spring.
Weiterführend wird für die Lagerung und Führung des Betätigers oder des Dämpfzylinders gegenüber dem Stößel ein Adapter verwendet. Wenn auch der Adapter ein zusätzliches Bauteil ist, kann er dennoch vorteilhaft sein, da dadurch der Betätiger oder der Dämpfzylinder geführt und gegen Seitenkräfte geschützt werden kann.In addition, an adapter is used for the storage and management of the actuator or the damping cylinder relative to the plunger. Although the adapter is an additional component, it may still be advantageous because it allows the actuator or the damping cylinder out and protected against lateral forces.
Insbesondere ist der Adapter dauerhaft an dem Stößel des Scharniers befestigt. Als Verbindung hierfür eignen sich Schraubverbindungen, eine Verklebung, eine Versteckung oder eine Presspassung. So wird praktisch eine Verlängerung des Stößels realisiert, in welcher der Betätiger oder Dämpfzylinder entnehmbar aufgenommen werden kann.In particular, the adapter is permanently attached to the plunger of the hinge. Suitable connections are screwed connections, gluing, hiding or interference fit. Thus, practically an extension of the plunger is realized, in which the actuator or damping cylinder can be removably received.
Vorteilhafter Weise ist in zumindest einer Winkelstellung des Gelenkarms der Abstand von dem Stößel zu dem Anschlag ausreichend groß, so dass der Dämpfer manuell entnehm- und austauschbar ist. Bei einer alternativen Ausführungsform, bei der das Scharnier, also insbesondere das Steckteil, die Druckfeder und der Stößel nicht demontierbar mit dem Scharniergehäuse, also dem Teil, welches mit der Tür verklebt ist, verbunden ist, kann eine Sichtabdeckung vor der Druckfeder und dem Dämpfer angeordnet sein. Wie später im Detail beschrieben wird, wird bei gewissen Winkeln des Gelenkarms zu dem Scharnierkörper der Abstand von dem Stößel zu dem Anschlag vergrößert. So kann nach Entfernung der Sichtabdeckung und ohne Demontage weiterer Bauteile der Dämpfer im Servicefall ausgetauscht werden. Zusätzlich bringt eine derartige Sichtabdeckung den Vorteil der Reduzierung von Wärmebrücken.Advantageously, in at least one angular position of the articulated arm, the distance from the plunger to the stop is sufficiently large so that the damper is manually removable and replaceable. In an alternative embodiment, in which the hinge, so in particular the male part, the compression spring and the plunger is not detachable connected to the hinge housing, ie the part which is glued to the door, a viewing cover in front of the compression spring and the damper arranged be. As will be described in detail later, at certain angles of the articulated arm to the hinge body, the distance from the plunger to the stop is increased. Thus, after removal of the visible cover and without disassembly of other components of the damper can be replaced in case of service. In addition, such a view covering brings the advantage of reducing thermal bridges.
Weiterführend ist der genannte Anschlag Teil des Scharnierkörpers, der mit der Hausgerätetür untrennbar verbunden - vorzugsweise verklebt - ist. Da nennenswerte Kräfte auf die Hausgerätetür aufgebracht werden können, wird der Träger des Scharniers, der mit der Tür verklebt wird, aus einem ausreichend starken Metallblech gefertigt und es ist deshalb möglich, mit einem einfachen Stanz- und Biegevorgang den Anschlag an diesem Teil anzuformen.In addition, said stop part of the hinge body, which is inseparably connected to the appliance door - preferably glued - is. Since appreciable forces can be applied to the appliance door, the support of the hinge, which is glued to the door, made of a sufficiently strong sheet metal and it is therefore possible to form the stop on this part with a simple stamping and bending operation.
In einer alternativen Ausführung kann der Gelenkarm mit der Druckfeder untrennbar mit dem Scharnierkörper verbunden sein. In diesem Fall kann der Anschlag Teil der Abdeckung sein, die die Druckfeder und den Stößel vor dem Anwender schützt und nach Entfernen dieser Abdeckung ist der Dämpfer einfach entnehmbar. Diese Abdeckung ist auch aus Designgründen vorzusehen und muss für Serviceaufgaben entfernt werden. Da mit ihrem Entfernen auch der Anschlag automatisch entfernt wird, kann der Dämpfer sehr einfach und ohne eine axiale Begrenzung entnommen werden.In an alternative embodiment, the articulated arm can be connected to the compression spring inseparably connected to the hinge body. In this case, the stop may be part of the cover, which protects the compression spring and the plunger from the user and after removal This cover is the damper easily removable. This cover is also to be provided for design reasons and must be removed for service tasks. In order to Removal of the stop is automatically removed, the damper can be removed very easily and without an axial limit.
Eine Hausgerätetür weist zumindest eines und vorzugsweise zwei entsprechende Scharniere auf und wird mit einem Haushaltsgerät, insbesondere einem Backofen, verwendet. Dabei wird die Hausgerätetür nach unten klappend geöffnet und der Dämpfer befindet sich in teilgeöffneten Winkellagen oberhalb des Stößels, so dass er nicht aufgrund der Schwerkraft herausfallen kann.A household appliance door has at least one and preferably two corresponding hinges and is used with a household appliance, in particular an oven. The household appliance door is opened folding down and the damper is located in partially open angular positions above the plunger so that it can not fall out due to gravity.
Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Stößel und der Dämpfer in einem Scharnierbauteil angeordnet sind, welches den ersten Scharnierarm bildet und an einer Türscheibe befestigt ist. Der Gelenkarm, der den weiteren Scharnierarm darstellt, ist dann an einem Backofengehäuse befestigt. Es kann auch vorgesehen sein, dass der Gelenkarm an der Türscheibe befestigt ist und der Stößel und der Dämpfer mit dem Backofengehäuse verbunden sind.It can be provided that the plunger and the damper are arranged in a hinge member which forms the first hinge arm and is secured to a door glass. The articulated arm, which represents the further hinge arm, is then attached to an oven housing. It can also be provided that the articulated arm is attached to the door glass and the plunger and the damper are connected to the oven housing.

Entlang des Bewegungswegs des Stößels 35 wird dann in einer spezifischen Bewegungsstellung, die beispielsweise bei etwa 25° der Neigung zwischen der Achse der Einheit 14 und dem Gelenkarm 20 liegt, die kontaktfreie Position des Dämpfers 50, 52 zum Anschlag 60 aufgehoben und der Dämpfzylinder 50 kommt in Kontakt mit dem Anschlag 60. Ab diesem Zeitpunkt bewirkt der Dämpfer 50, 52 eine Dämpfkraft, welche entgegen dem Schließen der Backofentür 70, entgegen der Federkraft der Druckfeder 30, wirkt. Hierdurch wird die Schließgeschwindigkeit der Backofentür 70 begrenzt und so ein weiches, gleichmäßig und schlagfreies Schließen der Backofentür 70 erreicht.
