Definitions
- the present invention relates to an interlock device for the closing door of household appliances, particularly for washing machines and/or tumble dryers.
- the drum is closed by a door with a hermetic seal, hinged to the front panel of the machine and provided with a closing catch that engages with an interlock device, also mounted on the front panel of the machine.
- the interlock device also comprises an electromechanical delaying device for instantaneous interlocking and delayed release of the door which has the function of preventing opening of the door after the machine has been started and of delaying opening thereof at the end of the working cycle, for example to ensure that inside it the inertial rotation of the drum has ceased.
- Door interlock devices are known that also perform the function of preventing starting of the machine with the door open by means of a microswitch that closes the machine operating circuit only when the door is closed and interlocked. Additionally, known devices, as well as inhibiting starting of the machine with the door open, also make it possible to interrupt its operating cycle in the case that, during operation of the machine, the door catch accidentally becomes detached from its seating, for example as a result of yielding of the catch or of the striking zone or through incorrect dimensioning thereof.
- such kind of interlock device already known in the art comprises a support or containing body 1, preferably of thermoplastic material, which comprises, in a known way, a portion for fixing to the panel of the washing machine, closed by a cover 2, and a portion for housing a door interlock 3.
- the door interlock or delaying device 3 is an electromechanical device, provided in a known manner with a latch 4, actuated by a thermal system, for example by the plate of the moving contact of a microswitch mounted in series on one phase of the machine operating current.
- the door interlock 3 is provided with three terminals that extend to the outside in the form of quick-coupling or faston or blade contacts 15, 15', 15".
- One of the contacts 15, called the locked-door contact has the function of detecting whether the device is in the "door closed” position and locked, and is actuated by a solenoid simultaneously with the interlock latch 4.
- a second contact called the open-door contact, since it has the function of detecting whether the door catch 19 is inserted in the device, is actuated by an actuator 20.
- the support 1 is provided with an opening 5, preferably having a rectangular shape, that receives the door catch 19 when the latter is closed.
- the mechanical device for locking the door catch 19 consists of a catch or interlock wheel 6, able to rotate to correspond to opening 5 and subject to the action of a torsional spring 17.
- Two sliders 7 and 8 are housed in the support 1 and, subject respectively to the action of coil springs 9 and 10, engage the interlock wheel 6 with their shaped ends, 13 and 16 respectively.
- the first slider 7, in the central position, is provided with a window 11, for receiving the interlock latch 4 of the electromechanical delaying device 3, and has a shaped notch 12 for actuation of the actuator 20.
- the second slider 8 carries, corresponding to notch 12 of the first slider 7, a shaped notch 14 for actuation of the actuator 20.
- a further technical problem afflicts the interlock devices of the type described above, and in particular of the type comprising a containing body 1 which in turn comprises a portion for fixing to the panel of the washing machine, closed by a cover, and a portion for housing a door interlock, as per the example of interlock device.
- the cover 2 houses the mechanical device for locking the door catch 19 which comprises the catch or interlock wheel 6, able to rotate to correspond to opening 5, and the torsional spring 17.
- a drawback that afflicts the interlock device of the type described above is the disassembly of the cover 2 from the containing body 1 to which the latter is associated.
- the disassembly of the interlock wheel 6 and/or of the cover 2 from the containing body 1 may therefore occur under different circumstances. Disassembly of the cover 2 could be caused for example by the hitting of the door catch 19 against the interlock wheel 6 during the closing of the door and when the interlock wheel 6 is in open position.
- cover 2 disassembly could be caused by problems related to the interlock wheel 6 dimensions and position which could be out of tolerance, allowing the door catch 19 to slip off the interlock device before the snapping point position of the interlock wheel 19.
- cover 2 disassembly may occur when the interlock wheel 6 does not fully rotate to its open position due to some friction with the containing body 1. In this case a little portion of the interlock wheel 6 could face the opening 5 and hit by the door catch 19 when the same is inserted into the opening 5 during the closing of the door.
- the sliders 7 and 8 are, with their ends 13 and 16 respectively, up against the interlock wheel 6, which is arranged with the concavity facing the opening 5 so that it can receive the door catch 19.
- the door catch 19, inserted in the opening 5 causes rotation of the interlock wheel 6 to the closing position and, at the same time, acts upon the shaped end 16 of the second slider 8, which moves to oppose the action of the spring 10.
- the interlock device reveals a situation in which the door is closed and locked, and therefore the machine can be switched on.
- the door interlock is supplied with current and moves the interlock latch 4 which enters window 11 on the first slider 7 locking it in the retaining position of the door catch 19, thus obstructing the rotation of the interlock wheel 6 to the opening position for the entire duration of the operating cycle.
- the actuator 20 reveals a condition of door closed and locked, the door interlock 3 is supplied with current and moves the interlock latch 4 which enters window 11 on the first slider 7 and the machine can be switched on.
- the present invention relates to an interlock device for the closing door of household appliances, particularly for washing machines and/or tumble dryers, of the kind suitable to detect closed and locked condition of the door, suitable to solve the problem left unsolved by the prior art.
- the present invention relates to an interlock device for the closing door of household appliances suitable to solve the problems related to the disassembling of the cover which contains and retains the interlock wheel for retaining the door catch.
- the present invention relates to an interlock device for the closing door of household appliances suitable to avoid the possibility that the appliance to which it is associated is switched on in case of disassembling of the interlock wheel.
- the interlock device comprises a support or containing body 1' which comprises a portion for fixing to the panel of the washing machine, closed by a cover 2', and a portion for housing a door interlock 3'.
- the door interlock or delaying device 3' is an electromechanical device, provided in a known manner with an interlock latch 4', actuated by a thermal system, for example by the plate of the moving contact of a microswitch mounted in series on one phase of the machine operating current.
- the door interlock 3' is provided with three terminals that extend to the outside in the form of quick-coupling or faston or blade contacts.
- locked-door contact has the function of detecting whether the device is in the "door closed” position and locked, and is actuated by a solenoid simultaneously with the interlock latch 4'.
- a second contact has the function of detecting whether the door catch 19' is inserted in the device, is actuated by an actuator.
- the support 1' is provided with an opening 5', preferably having a rectangular shape, that receives the door catch 19' when the latter is closed.
- the mechanical device for locking the door catch 19' consists of a catch or interlock wheel 6', able to rotate to correspond to opening 5' and subject to the action of a torsional spring 17'.
- Two sliders are housed in the support 1' and, each subject to the action of a coil spring, engage the interlock wheel 6' with their shaped ends.
- the first slider 7' comprises a substantially elongated body 7'a provided with a window 11' for receiving the interlock latch 4' of the electromechanical interlock or delaying device 3', and has a shaped notch 12' for actuation of the actuator.
- the interlock device comprises means for detecting a disassembly condition of the interlock wheel 6' and safety means for preventing the switching on of the household appliance when a disassembly condition of the interlock wheel 6' is detected.
- safety means for preventing the switching on of the appliance are configured to hamper the closure of the operating circuit of the interlock or delaying device 3' when a disassembly condition of the interlock wheel 6' is detected.
- said means for detecting a disassembly condition of the interlock wheel 6' and safety means are provided on said first slider 7'.
- means for hampering the closure of the operating circuit of the interlock or delaying device 3' when a disassembly condition of the interlock wheel 6' is detected comprise, provided on the first slider 7', a locking pin 7'b which projects into the window 11' along the longitudinal direction of the elongated body 7'a, the longitudinal direction corresponding to the moving direction of the first slider 7' with respect to the support body 1'.
- Means for detecting a disassembly condition of the interlock wheel 6' comprise, on the first slider 7', a longitudinal groove 7'd from which an arrest element 7'c projects upwardly from the body 7'a in a substantially orthogonal direction with respect to the longitudinal direction of the elongated body 7'.
- the second slider not shown in the drawings is moved backward against a coil spring and acts on the actuator of the interlock or delaying device 3' revealing the condition of door closed.
- the first slider 7' remains in its resting position of Figure 7 in which it obstructs the movement of the interlock latch 4' until the interlock wheel 6' has completed its rotation.
- the stroke of the first slider 7' is limited by the arrest element 7'c which matches against a correspondent part 2'a of the cover 2', thus detecting the presence of the cover 2' and, consequently, of the interlock wheel 6'.
- the interlock latch 4' enters the window 11' as visible in Figure 9 , closing the operating circuit of the interlock or delaying device 3', while the notch 12' actuates the actuator and closes the door-locked contact.
- FIGS 11 and 12 show an interlock wheel 6' disassembly condition.
- the door interlock 6' is supported and partially contained by the cover 2', which comprises the interlock wheel 6' and the torsional spring 17', as represented in the Figures, therefore when a disassembly of the cover 2' occurs, the interlock wheel 6' results disassembled too.
- the first slider's arrest element 7'c does not match against the part 2'a of the cover 2' and consequently, under the action of the coil spring 9', the first slider 7' moves forward along the opening 5' area.
- the arrest element 7'c is therefore suitable to detect a disassembly condition of the cover 2'.
- the first slider 7' moves under the action of the spring 9' as represented in Figure 11 , and said first slider 7' moves with respect to the body 1' of an extra stroke, until the far internal end 11' a of the window 11' matches against a corresponding part 1'a of the body 1'.
- the locking pin 7'b hampers the stroke of the interlock latch 4' and so, even on supplying current to the appliance, the operating circuit of the interlock or delaying device 3' cannot be closed because the locked-door contact is open.
- the interlock device according to the present invention As described solves the technical problems left unsolved by the prior art. More in details, it has been shown that the interlock device according to the present invention allows to detect a disassembly condition of the interlock wheel 6' and, at the same time, to avoid the switching on of the machine by hampering the closure of the micro-switch 4' revealing the locked-door condition.
