Definitions
- the present invention relates to a household appliance comprising at least one knob which is located on the panel.
- knobs are used, that are generally located on the panel at the front side of the household appliance and that enable the selection of program parameters. With the knob being rotated around itself, the desired program parameter is selected. The circuit board connected to the knob provides the execution of the selected program. While the knob is being rotated, the user has to be informed that the desired program parameter is selected. In order to enable the user to sense that he/she is making the desired selection, knobs with springs are used, that have mechanisms stretching by themselves. These knobs have complicated structures and increase the cost of the household appliance. Moreover, having structures composed of many components, the montage of these knobs may cause difficulties, increasing labor time.
- a multistage rotary knob comprising an axle part whereto the spindle transmitting the rotational movement to the electronic control unit is connected and an intermediary panel that is disposed between the spindle and the knob and whereon the stages corresponding to the parameter selected by the knob are situated.
- a household appliance comprising the features of the preamble of claim 1 is disclosed in DE 10 2005 039162 B3 .
- the aim of the present invention is the realization of a household appliance comprising a knob, of which the production cost is decreased.
- the household appliance realized in order to attain the aim of the present invention, explicated in the first claim and the respective claims thereof comprises a knob disposed on the panel, providing the user to select various program parameters and a circuit board that detects the selected program parameter.
- the household appliance furthermore comprises a holder disposed at the inner face of the panel, with the knob being mounted to the front side and the circuit board being mounted to the rear side and wherein the free end of said shaft is passed through the holder to be connected to the circuit board, wherein a bearing is located almost at the center of the holder, through which the shaft is passed.
- the shaft is produced with the knob as a single piece.
- an integrated rigid knob-shaft structure is obtained.
- the shaft and the knob are produced separately and fastened to each other by plastic welding.
- the shaft and the knob cannot be separated from each other without causing damage.
- more than one stage is present on the knob, positioned so as to correspond to each program parameter predetermined by the producer. With the knob being rotated, the stages pass over the protrusions on the holder, thus enabling the user to sense that he/she selects the desired program parameter.
- the knob comprises a body that is passed through the opening arranged on the panel to remain at the front face of the panel and that is used for selecting program parameters by being rotated, and a skirt that surrounds the body and that extends from the body towards the rear face of the panel. One face of the skirt bears against the rear face of the panel and the other against the front face of the holder.
- the stages are arranged on the skirt.
- the shaft is passed through a bearing disposed almost at the center of the holder and is connected to the circuit board.
- the skirt when the shaft is passed through the bearing, the skirt bears against the front face of the holder.
- more than one foot is arranged on the holder, providing the holder to be guided onto the panel.
- the position of the holder on the panel is easily determined.
- more than one fixing hole is arranged on the holder, providing the holder to be fastened onto the panel.

- the knob (3) is situated at the front side of the holder (6) and the circuit board (5) is situated at the rear side of the holder (6).
- the shaft (7) connected to the knob (3) so as not to be separated from the knob (3) without causing damage, passes through the holder (6) and extends towards the circuit board (5). With the user rotating the knob (3) for selecting the program parameter, the shaft (7) also rotates together with the knob (3).
- the shaft (7) transmits the rotational movement of the knob (3) to the circuit board (5) whereto it is connected, thereby providing the circuit board (5) to detect the selected parameter.
- the movement of the knob (3) is provided to be directly transmitted to the circuit board (5) without requiring any other intermediary component.
- the production cost of the knob (3), hence of the household appliance (1) is decreased.
- the montage process of the knob (3) is facilitated.
- the shaft (7) is produced with the knob (3) as a single piece.
- the knob (3) and the shaft (7) are produced in an integrated manner, preferably with the plastic injection method.
- the shaft (7) and the knob (3) are produced separately and the shaft (7) is fastened to the knob (3) with plastic welding.
- the household appliance (1) comprises more than one stage (10) arranged on the knob (3), each corresponding to one program parameter and more than one protrusion (11) arranged on the holder (6), that provides the user to sense that he/she selects the desired program parameter by passing over the stages (10) with the movement of the knob (3).
- the knob (3) is preferably in circular form and the stages (10) are circumferentially arranged on the knob (3) at certain intervals.
- Each stage (10) corresponds to a program parameter predetermined by the producer.
- the relevant stage (10) passes over the protrusion (11), thereby enabling the user to sense that he/she brings the knob (3) to the desired position.
- the program parameter selected by means of the stages (10) are shown to the user by means of the indicators arranged on the knob (3).
- the shaft (7) rotating with the rotational movement of the knob (3) triggers the circuit board (5), providing the detection of the selected parameter.
- the user is enabled to sense that he/she brings the knob (3) to the desired position by means of the stages (10) and the protrusions (11) arranged on the knob (3) and the holder (6).
- the household appliance (1) comprises an opening (14) arranged on the panel (2), and the knob (3) having a body (4) that is passed through the opening (14) to extend outside the panel (2) and that is moved by being rotated by the user and a skirt (9) that surrounds the body (4) and that extends from the body (4) to the rear face of the panel (2).
- the body (4) is passed through the opening (14)
- the body (4) is surrounded by the walls of the panel (2) facing the opening (14).
- the skirt (9) By means of the skirt (9) extending towards the rear face of the panel (2), the knob (3) is prevented from being dislocated.
- the knob (3) is mounted onto the panel (2), the front face of the skirt (9) contacts the inner wall of the panel (2) and the rear face thereof contacts the holder (6).
- the stages (10) are arranged on the skirt (9).
- the skirt (9) faces the front face of the holder (6) and the stages (10) are positioned so as to face the protrusions (11).
- the household appliance (1) comprises a bearing (8) that is located almost at the center of the holder (6), through which the shaft (7) is passed.
- the skirt (9) bears against the front face of the holder (6).
- the shaft (7) is passed through the bearing (8) to be connected to the circuit board (5) that is mounted onto the holder (6). Since the other end of the shaft (7) is integrated with the knob (3), the knob (3), the holder (6) and the circuit board (5) are provided to be grouped.
- the bearing (8) furthermore, provides the centering of the shaft (7).
- the movement generated with the user rotating the knob (3) is transmitted to the circuit board (5) without any problems.
- the household appliance (1) comprises more than one foot (12) that is arranged on the holder (6) and that provides the position of the holder (6) on the panel (2) to be determined.
- the feet (12) By means of the feet (12), the proper position of the holder (6) on the panel (2) is easily determined.
