Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Waschmaschine mit einem Waschmitteleinspülkasten gemäß Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a washing machine with a detergent dispenser according to the preamble of claim 1.

Aus EP 2 365 120 A1 ist bereits eine Waschmaschine mit einem Waschmitteleinspülkasten bekannt, bei dem ein Waschmittelfach vorgesehen ist, welches mit einem Einwegbehältnis bestückt werden kann, in dem vorportionierte Spezialwasch- und Pflegemittel enthalten sind. Das Waschmittelfach ist dabei mit einem schwenkbaren Klappdeckel versehen, auf dessen Innenseite Aufstechdorne angeordnet sind. Beim Einschieben des Waschmitteleinspülkastens verschließt der Klappdeckel zwangsweise das Waschmittelfach und die Aufstechdorne durchstoßen das Behältnis mit dem Spezialwasch- und Pflegemittel. Das programmgemäß zufliessende Frischwasser kann dann diese Mittel in den Laugenbehälter der Maschine über eine in dem Waschmittelfach in bekannter Weise angeordnete Saugheberanordnung einspülen.Out EP 2 365 120 A1 already a washing machine with a Waschmitteleinspülkasten is known in which a detergent dispenser is provided, which can be equipped with a disposable container, are contained in the pre-portioned special washing and care products. The detergent compartment is provided with a hinged hinged lid, on the inside of Aufstechdorne are arranged. When inserting the Waschmitteleinspülkastens the hinged lid forcibly closes the detergent compartment and the Aufstechdorne pierce the container with the special washing and care products. The program according to incoming fresh water can then flush these agents into the tub of the machine via a arranged in the detergent compartment in a known manner siphon.

Bei dieser an sich vorteilhaften Weiterbildung hat sich jedoch der Nachteil gezeigt, dass bedingt durch den begrenzten Bauraum und dem dadurch auch begrenzten Öffnungswinkel des Klappdeckels, die auf der dem Waschmittelfach zugewandten Aufstechdorne im Handlingsbereich des Waschmittelfachs im Wege sind. Dadurch gestaltet sich für den Benutzer das Beschicken und Entnehmen der Einwegbehältnisse insofern schwierig, da der vorhandene Freiraum gering ist und die Aufstechdorne auch eine Verletzungsgefahr hervorrufen können.In this advantageous per se development, however, has the disadvantage that due to the limited space and thus limited opening angle of the hinged lid, which are on the detergent compartment facing Aufstechdorne in the handling of the detergent compartment in the way. This makes it difficult for the user to load and unload the disposable containers inasmuch as the existing space is small and the piercing spikes can also cause a risk of injury.

Der Erfindung stellt sich somit das Problem eine Waschmaschine mit einem Waschmitteleinspülkasten der eingangs genannten Art derart weiterzubilden, dass die vorstehend aufgeführten Nachteile vermieden werden können.The invention thus provides the problem of developing a washing machine with a detergent dispenser of the type mentioned in such a way that the disadvantages listed above can be avoided.

Die mit der Erfindung erreichbaren Vorteile bestehen insbesondere darin, dass durch die erfindungsgemäße Ausgestaltung der Klappdeckel mit den Aufstechdornen aus dem Zugangsbereich zum Waschmittelfach für die Spezialwasch- und Pflegemittel herausgeschwenkt werden kann.
Dadurch ergeben sich zugleich mehrere vorteilhafte Effekte. Das Beschicken und das Entnehmen der Einwegbehältnisse wird für den Benutzer durch den größeren Freiraum erleichtert. Der Benutzer ist dabei auch nicht mehr einer Verletzungsgefahr durch die angespitzten Aufstechdorne ausgesetzt. Außerdem gestaltet sich das Reinigen des Waschmittelfachs sowie der übrigen im Waschmittelfach angeordneten Zusatzbauteile, wie z.Beisp. des Saughebers erheblich einfacher.The achievable with the present invention consist in particular that can be swung out by the inventive design of the hinged lid with the Aufstechdornen from the access to the detergent compartment for special washing and care products.
This results in several beneficial effects at the same time. The loading and unloading of the disposable containers is made easier for the user by the greater freedom. The user is no longer a risk of injury by the exposed pointed spikes. In addition, the cleaning of the detergent compartment and the other arranged in the detergent compartment additional components designed as z.Beisp. the siphon much easier.
