Definitions

  • the invention refers to a top-loading laundry washing machine.
  • top-loading laundry washing machines (called also simply top-loading washing machine) generally comprise a substantially parallelepiped-shaped casing, typically built for resting on the floor, a substantially cylindrical hollow washing tub which is suspended in floating manner inside the casing by means of a number of coil springs and shock-absorbers, with the longitudinal reference axis of the washing tub oriented substantially horizontally; and a substantially cylindrical, hollow revolving drum for housing the laundry to be washed, which is housed in axially rotating manner inside the washing tub for rotating about its substantially horizontally-oriented, longitudinal reference axis.
  • An electric motor assembly which is located outside of the washing tub, is typically configured for driving into rotation the revolving drum about its longitudinal reference axis inside the washing tub.
  • an additive compartment adapted to be filled with one or more additives i.e. a washing and/or rinsing products like for example detergent, softener, bleach, etc.
  • a washing and/or rinsing products like for example detergent, softener, bleach, etc.
  • a washing and/or rinsing products like for example detergent, softener, bleach, etc.
  • a water supply circuit comprising a water inlet connectable to water mains external to the washing machine, and structured for drawing fresh water from the water mains and supplying water into the additive compartment, so as to sweep away into the washing tub the additive(s) (e.g. detergent and/or softener) stored in the compartment.
  • the additive compartment typically comprises two or more chambers adapted to be filled with washing and/or rinsing additives, each chamber having an additives inlet section, i.e. a section from which additive can be poured in the chamber.
  • Top-loading washing machines described above commonly comprise a water distributor which is an element that supplies the water coming from the mains to the different chambers of the additive compartment; for this purpose the distributor comprises a plurality of channels, each one being fluidly connected to one or more chambers of the additive compartment.
  • the distributor is typically the latest component before the additive compartment, and it is connected, upstream, to one or more electro-valves (i.e. a plurality of one-way electro-valves and/or one or more electro-valves having a plurality of ways) which are connected, upstream, to the water inlet connectable to external water mains.
  • Such electro-valve(s) are connected, downstream, via a rubber pipe or directly through a fixed pipe departing from electro-valve(s) to the distributor, in such a way to selectively take one or more streams of water coming from the water inlet to one or more of the channels of the distributor.
  • the distributor and injector provide the functionality to lead the water coming from the electro-valve(s) into the respective chambers of the additive compartment.
  • the distributor and injector components For the distributor and injector components, a variety of technical solutions is known, which, among other technical design criteria, depend on the number of compartments that need to be supplied with water.
  • the distributor and injector components are dedicated parts that are assembled on the work top of the washing machine.
  • the distributor is configured to output three distinct water jets, each directed to a distinct chamber of the additive compartment.
  • the distributor usually provides a crossing region or point or air-gap region in which two water jets that are coming from two the two electro-valves being switched on can collide and intersect, leading to a third water jet with a direction in between the original two jets.
  • the European Patent Application EP 2 604 744 A2 discloses a top-loading laundry machine provided with such an additive compartment (called detergent/softener dispenser).
  • the aim of the present invention is to provide a top-loading laundry washing machine with a water distributor that allows accurate control of water flow and leads to a robust design of the dispensing components.
  • a top-loading washing machine comprising:
  • the present invention is based on the consideration that for modern top-loading washing machines, in order to fulfill current and future requirements of energy efficiency, both during the operating and during manufacturing processes, the machine should have a simple design of components and allow for a precise handling of re-sources, especially of detergents, softeners and water. Therefore, the design of the components that channel water through the chambers and that support the directed and regulated flow of water is especially important.
  • Known dispensers with water distribution functionality of top-loading washing machines are usually difficult to manufacture and do not allow a precise control of water flows or jets, especially when two jets are used to create a third jet.
  • Applicant has found that integrating the water distributor directly into the cover of the additive compartment leads to dispensing capabilities that are able to fulfill the above mentioned demands and requirements.
  • a dedicated water distributor component as part of the cover allows on one hand to realize a simpler design of the injector compared to known solutions.
  • a precise flow control of water becomes possible which in turn allows precise dosage of water streams into the various chambers.
  • integral hereby denotes functional integration.
  • it is not necessarily integral part of the cover but can also be an extractable or detachable and re-insertable component.
  • saying that a first component is "fluidly separated" from a second component means that a fluid, that is especially water, cannot flow from the first component to the second one or vice versa.
  • saying that a first component is "fluidly connected" to a second component means that a fluid can flow from the first component to the second component and vice versa.
  • top-loading laundry washing machine includes washing machines as such but also combined washing/drying machines that can incorporate both functionalities. Also the terms laundry washing machine and washing machine used interchangeably.
  • detergent/softener denotes the cases of only detergent, only softener, or both detergent and softener.
  • washing and/or rinsing additives includes for example detergents and rinsing liquids.

  • the additive compartment comprises preferably two chambers, whereby the water distributor - when installed - is arranged in correspondence to a region of the additive compartment at least partially between these two chambers.
  • Such a configuration allows building a compact additive compartment which needs only comparatively little installation place.
  • the fluid connections of the water distributor to the injector and to the chambers can be designed with short distances and small bends, allowing a precise control of the water flow and water amount.
  • the water distributor is structured as a detachable component of the cover. This means that the water distributor still is part of the cover but can be detached if needed for cleaning, repair, check, or replacement.
  • the water distributor comprises a base or bottom part and a cover or top part structured to engage one another.
  • the water distributor comprises preferably ducts which are advantageously built by half ducts (essentially shaped with a cross-section of a semi-circle) in each part (top part and bottom part) so that when engaging both parts, a complete duct (with a cross-section of essentially a full circle) is formed.
