Definitions
- This invention relates to a method of making a casing integrated in an electrical household appliance. This invention also relates to an electrical household appliance integrating the casing.
- Washing appliances which delimit a washing compartment. Between the washing compartment and the outside of the electrical household appliance there are soundproofing panels which reduce the noise propagating outside the electrical household appliance.
- these soundproofing panels are typically made of felt and are positioned in suitable housings shaped to match in such a way as to allow their stable positioning. If necessary, these panels are fixed using clips or other holding means. Consequently, they are positioned during assembly of the electrical household appliance.
- the panels have discontinuities, at the interface zones which separate them from each other, which reduce the requested soundproofing.
- these panels are normally available in standard sizes and often must be positioned in zones which do not extend according to exact multiples of the standard surface of extension of the panels.
- the cavities designed to house the panels also have empty zones.
- the panels must be specially cut for them to be inserted in these empty zones (with a consequent increase in production times).
- bituminous linings applied using a two-sided adhesive tape on the outer side of the wall which delimits the washing compartment are also known. Also in this case, the bituminous linings are arranged in sheets which are applied during assembly and have the aforementioned drawbacks linked to the fact that these sheets are modular and have dimensions that are not always exact multiples of the zone to be treated. In addition, these bituminous sheets normally require an additional heating in an oven to improve adhesion. Disclosure of the Invention
- the technical purpose forming the basis of this invention is to propose a method for making a casing integrated in an electrical household appliance and an electrical household appliance obtained in this way that overcomes the aforementioned drawbacks of the prior art.
- the aim of this invention is to provide a method and an electrical household appliance which can speed up assembly of the electrical household appliance.
- Another aim of this invention is to improve the soundproofing properties of the electrical household appliance and at the same time also obtain a heat insulating effect (a very important characteristic as it is linked to energy saving).
- Figure 1 shows a schematic view of an electrical household appliance according to this invention and an enlargement of a portion of the electrical household appliance.
- the electrical household appliance 1 comprises a casing 2 in turn comprising a multilayer zone 310.
- the casing 2 comprises a heat insulating and soundproofing lining 4.
- the lining 4 is integrated in a first layer 32 of the multilayer zone 310.
- the first layer 32 comprises a matrix in which solid particles are embedded.
- the solid particles advantageously comprise heat insulating material particles such as glass.
- the matrix comprises a naturally drying binder, such as an aqueous dispersion of acrylic- vinyl resin.
- the lining 4 forms a single body with a support 40 on which it is applied, the support 40 being at least in part integrated in the multilayer zone 310 of the casing 2.
- the thickness of the first layer 32 is less than 5 millimetres.
- the thickness of the first layer 32 is more than at least 0.5 millimetres.
- the lining 4 also constitutes a fire-retardant lining.
- the electrical household appliance 1 may be a washing appliance such as a laundry washer or a dishwasher.
- the electrical household appliance is a laundry drying appliance (in the trade this appliance is usually called "clothes dryer").
- the casing 2 comprises a rotary drum 20 in turn forming a space 21 designed to hold the laundry inside.
- the first layer 32 is formed along a portion of the drum 20 outside the space 21. This is not designed to be in contact during use with the laundry to be treated (washed or dried). This prevents any roughness of the lining from damaging the laundry to be washed or dried.
- the latter solution is particularly useful in the case of a laundry washer and a laundry drier.
- the support 40 might be a galvanised sheet or a stainless steel sheet, whilst in the case of laundry washers it might be a stainless steel or plastic layer.
- the multilayer 310 is at least in part integrated in a lateral band of the drum 20 which surrounds the axis of rotation of the drum 20.
- the multilayer zone 310 surrounds the axis of rotation.
- the multilayer zone 310 is integrated in an end surface of the drum 20 transversally to the axis of rotation of the drum 20. The end surface is opposite the opening of the drum 20 which allows inserting or removing the laundry to be washed or dried.
- the integration of the lining 4 in the drum 20 of the laundry drier allows both improvement of the thermal efficiency of the laundry drier reducing the electricity consumption needed to heat the hot air introduced into the drum 20 and reduction of the noise generated by the movement of the laundry in the drum 20. More specifically, the Applicant has found that with the same energy consumption there is a temperature increase of between 5°C and 10°C inside drum 20.
- the casing 2 might comprise a containment cabinet 22 which delimits at least partially from the outside the electrical household appliance 1.
- a surface of the cabinet 22 invisible from the outside of the electrical household appliance 1 comprises the first layer 32.
- the multilayer zone 310 is formed at least along the upper wall of the cabinet 22 (in jargon "top").
- the step of applying the first layer 32 on the cabinet 22 is also advantageous in the case of the washing appliances (such as laundry washer, dishwasher, laundry drier) but also in the case of ovens for cooking food.
- the heat insulating and soundproofing lining allows both the reduction of heat dispersion to the outside (increasing the efficiency) and the reduction of noise generated such as from aerodynamic noise generated by the passage in suitable ducts of currents of cooling air.
- the first layer 32 may be applied both on the drum 20 and on the containment cabinet 22.
- This invention also relates to a method of making a casing 2 integrated in an electrical household appliance 1.
- the casing 2 may have one or more of the technical features described above with reference to the electrical household appliance 1.
- the method comprises the steps of:
- the step comprising assembly of at least a first and a second component 331 , 34 of the casing 2;
- the step of applying the heat insulating and soundproofing lining 4 comprises the step of simultaneously spraying, on the first portion 31 , solid particles and a binder to form a first layer 32 comprising a matrix in which the solid particles are embedded.
- the first portion 31 should lie on a horizontal plane during the spraying step.
- the solid particles comprise for example glass balls (the balls are preferably hollow).
- the binder comprises an aqueous dispersion of acrylic-vinyl resin.
- the method provides for heating the first layer 32 in order to increase the drying speed. After completely drying, the first layer 32 is like a rubbery and at least partly elastic layer.
- the sprayed composition has an aqueous base and comprises a natural-based binder and inert mineral fillers.
- the percentages in weight of the sprayed components are as follows: - water: greater than 40% and less than 55%;
- the first component 331 consists at least or exclusively of a first planar or non-planar slab 33; conveniently, the first slab 33 is at least initially planar.
- the first plate 33 is a first sheet.
- the expression sheet means a thin metal sheet (at the most a few millimetres).
- the first component 331 might, however, also be a slab or a plastic product, such as a polypropylene base with calcium or talc filler.
- the step of assembling the components 3 of the casing follows at least partly or entirely the step of applying on the first surface portion 31 of the first component 331 the heat insulating and soundproofing lining 4.
- the method also comprises cutting and/or shaping the first component 331.
- the step of cutting and/or shaping the first component 331 precedes the step of assembling the first component 331 with the second component 34.
- first layer 32 to be as uniform as possible, being applied before performing shaping operations of the first component 331 (for example, once the first slab 33 has been folded it is more difficult to spray a first layer 32 with a uniform thickness).
- the step of cutting and/or shaping the first component 331 follows at least partly or entirely the step of applying on the first surface portion 31 of the first component 3 the heat insulating and soundproofing lining 4.
- the electrical household appliance 1 is an appliance 10 for washing and/or drying laundry and the casing 2 comprises a rotary drum 20 forming a space 21 designed to hold the laundry inside.
- the method comprises the step of shaping (preferably calendering) the first component 331 to obtain a lateral band 330 of the drum 20; the step of assembling the first component 331 with the second component 34 comprising joining (preferably clamping) the first component 331 with a second component 34, the second component 34 being a base 341 of the rotary drum 20.
- the step of assembling the first and the second component 331, 34 (more specifically, the band
- the step of cutting and/or shaping (for example, calendering) the first component 331 precedes the step of applying at least on a first surface portion 31 of the first component 331 a heat insulating and soundproofing lining 4.
- the step of calendering the first component 331 comprises bending the first component 331 to form a cavity designed to form part of the space 21; the step of bending the first component 331 positions the first layer 32 outside the cavity. This avoids contact between the first layer 32 and the laundry to be treated.
- the casing 2 also comprises a containment cabinet 22 which delimits at least partially from the outside the electrical household appliance 1.
- the step of assembling components 3 of the casing 2 comprising positioning the first layer 32 of the first component
- the first layer 32 is invisible from the outside of the electrical household appliance 1.
- the step of applying the heat insulating and soundproofing lining 4 on the first surface portion 31 of the first component 331 is preceded by the step of removably positioning on the first component at least one mask to cover a zone adjacent to the first portion 31 and avoid the presence of the heat insulating and soundproofing lining 4 in the adjacent zone.
- the zone must hold screws or other connecting elements, or because they are surface zones designed to interact with other components of the electrical household appliance.
- drum 20 along the lateral band of the drum there is conveniently a stretch on which a belt is wound that connects movement means (for example, the electric motor) and the drum 20.
- movement means for example, the electric motor
- the first layer 32 is not applied on the stretch of the drum 20 on which the belt is wound.
- the latter normally has a circular flange which circumscribes the opening for inserting or removing the laundry.
- the flange is advantageously clamped to the lateral band 330.
- the circular flange normally slides on a fixed portion which conveniently has containment means such as a felt or a gasket. It is therefore important that also a portion of the circular flange designed to interact with the felt or gasket is not affected by the first layer 32.
- the portion of the circular flange designed to interact with the containment means comprises the part of the flange which, if measured along the axis of rotation, is furthest from the base 341 of the drum 20.
- the portion of the flange which, if measured along the axis of rotation, is closest to the base 341 of the drum 20 may not be affected by the first layer 32.
- This invention brings important advantages.
- this invention is optimum in view of the development of regulations in terms of materials and health, allowing the elimination of critical elements such bituminous linings.
