Definitions
- the invention relates to a household appliance for the care of laundry, with a drum for receiving the laundry items, which is rotatably mounted about a horizontal axis, and a support star, which viewed in the direction of the axis disposed behind a rear wall of the drum and connected to the drum.
- the carrier star has a plurality of radially extending support arms.
- Washing machines usually have a laundry drum, which is rotatably mounted.
- a carrying star is provided, which is usually arranged behind a rear wall of the drum and is rotatably connected to the drum.
- a horizontal axis of rotation of the drum is also understood a rotation axis which is inclined relative to the horizontal and whose inclination angle is less than 45 °, i. the axis of rotation is substantially horizontal.
- Exemplary embodiments are known from DE 43 26 496 A1 . US3108464 A and the DE 10 2004 047 996 A1 known. It is also known in the context that the carrier star is rotatably connected to a drive shaft, so that the laundry drum can rotate concentrically within a tub to a bearing of the tub.
- the Drum system transports water or wash liquor to the sealing system, for example, by the fact that splash or spray water forms because the rotating Tragsternarm entrains water from the tub at the front end or on the arm structure and a paddle wheel and discharges to the outside.
- Another possibility of a corresponding water transport is that the water forms a circulating water film on the rotating rear wall of the drum and on the connecting fold of the drum, which is prevented at bottlenecks, such as between a Tragsternarm and a bottom plate or a rear wall of the drum and breaks off and is also delivered to the outside.
- lint particles and small foreign bodies in the wash liquor are also transported to the lye container rear wall, the drum system and the sealing system, where these particles can dry.
- the dried-on particles form a crust and also have an abrasive effect on the sealing system during rotation of the drum.
- An inventive household appliance for the care of laundry comprises a drum for receiving the laundry items. This drum is rotatably mounted about an axis.
- the household appliance further comprises a support star, which is viewed in the direction of this axis of rotation disposed behind a rear wall of the drum and connected to the drum.
- the carrier star has a plurality of radially extending support arms.
- An essential idea of the invention is to be seen in that between the support arms and the rear wall in the axial direction in each case a distance is formed such that viewed in the direction of rotation about this axis of rotation, a continuous flow gap between a support arm and the rear wall of the drum is formed.
- the flow-through gap is Tragarm motif limited by a wall having a first wall portion.
- This first wall portion is at least partially oriented at a first angle between 20 ° and 70 ° to a plane perpendicular to the axis about which rotate the star and the drum, standing plane.
- a channel is formed, as it were, by the through-flow gap oriented in the direction of rotation about the axis, through which the liquid medium received from a tub during a rotation of the drum and the star is quasi conveyed further in the direction of rotation, without it touching the star and, in particular to bounce on the support arms and thus would cumshot.
- this throughflow gap is defined and thus a fluid conduit is formed which permits a desired and locally specified transfer of the fluid in the region of a support arm.
- the invention further specifies this flow-through gap to the effect that a specific wall, namely the wall opposite the rear wall, which delimits the flow-through gap, is specifically shaped. Also, by this very special geometry of this first wall section can be avoided in the flow-through gap that the liquid medium passed through it would bounce on very steep wall sections, in particular standing perpendicular to the flow direction walls, and thus also abschwappen unwanted back again or splash away. The very specific orientation of the first Wall section thus also allows a targeted forwarding of the fluid in the flow-through gap.
- the invention thus avoids that unwanted splash water or spray can possibly with other particles, such as lint or the like, to a sealing system of a warehouse, with which the drum and / or the supporting star and / or a tub are stored, can get over there the sealing system can enter the interior of the warehouse.
- Above-mentioned bearing damage due to incoming spray water or splash water, which is promoted by the rotation of the support star and the drum to this camp, can be at least substantially reduced by the invention.
- This first angle which the first wall section has to a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the support star and the drum, is preferably between 30 ° and 55 °.
- the orientation of the first wall section thus has a very advantageous inclined position, by means of which a very uniform forwarding of the liquid medium flowing through the throughflow gap is achieved.
- first wall sections are formed on opposite sides of a longitudinal axis of a support arm.
- first wall sections are formed symmetrically to the longitudinal axis of a support arm.
- the Tragarm workede wall has a second wall portion adjacent to the first wall portion.
- the second wall section is oriented in particular at a smaller second angle than the first wall section to the planes perpendicular to the axis of rotation. It is thus preferably in a sectional view perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of a Support arm angled or stepped shaping of the wall formed by the two wall sections, whereby the above advantages are favored again.
- the wall is thus expanded in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of a support arm and thus the flow-through also extended.
- the likelihood that unwanted spray water or splash water occurs and is conveyed in an undesirably large amount in the direction of the bearing, again reduced.
- a deflection or a Weglenken of the liquid medium is achieved by the camp, both at the entrance and at the outlet of the liquid medium in or out of the flow-through gap quasi.
- the second angle is between 0 ° and 20 °, in particular between 0 ° and 10 °, wherein the angle can be positive as well as negative.
- a particularly flat or very slightly obliquely inclined arrangement of the second wall section is provided, so that the liquid medium is also very close to the drum rear wall and not tearing both on entering and then emerging from the flow-through undesirable from the rear wall of the drum.
- the second wall portion may also be formed in addition or instead of the above at least partially curved.
- a curvature can be provided in the direction of the rear wall of the drum.
- the second wall portion is located farther from a longitudinal axis of a support arm than the first wall portion.
- the geometry of the entire flow-through gap is therefore particularly advantageous with respect to the above-mentioned aspects.
- second wall sections are formed on opposite sides of a longitudinal axis of a support arm, in particular formed symmetrically to the longitudinal axis of a support arm. It is thus in a sectional view perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of a support arm, a wing-like geometry of the wall, in particular by the second wall sections formed.
- the flow-through gap is formed, at least in such a radially outer longitudinal region of a support arm, viewed in relation to the axis of rotation of the support star, which immerses in rotation in a wash liquor in a tub of the domestic appliance when rotating about the axis of rotation. Since just these specific lengths or lengths of a support arm also contribute significantly to the forwarding of the liquid medium received during the rotation, this local specification of the formation of the flow-through gap with the specifically designed wall is particularly advantageous.
- the support arm-side wall for limiting the flow-through gap is formed at least in such, considered to the axis of rotation of the support star radially outer length portion of a support arm, which dips on rotation about the axis in a wash liquor in a tub of the household appliance.
- the Tragarm the flow gap defining wall is integrated into the support arm. This is a particularly advantageous embodiment, since thus both the number of components is reduced, and assembly effort is minimized. In particular, however, a very accurate local position of the support arm is achieved as such to this wall, as a result of the integration no unwanted position tolerances, especially during operation and thus when turning the supporting star.
- the support arm-side wall or at least one wall section of the support arm-side wall for limiting the flow-through gap is formed as a separate component to the support star and covers a support arm on the side facing away from the flow-through gap of a support arm as a cover.
- the cover is formed as a groove or as a U-profile, wherein the cover extends over the length of the support arm to be covered.
- the shaping of the wall defining the flow-through gap is formed with at least the first wall section in a side part of this cover, if this is designed as a groove-shaped component.
- the cover in the direction of rotation about the axis about which rotate the support star and the drum, in such, viewed to this axis of rotation of the support star radially outer length portion of a support arm is formed thickened when rotating about the axis immersed in a wash liquor in a tub of the household appliance.
- this specific thickening in the direction of rotation about the axis of rotation the embodiment of this boundary wall of the throughflow gap integrated in the cover can be made particularly advantageous in terms of geometry and geometry, and in that context the cover can also be made very stable in this area. Especially at very high speeds, this cover is then correspondingly rigid, so that the desired effect for the targeted management of the absorbed liquid medium is maintained even in such operating phases.
- the flow-through gap in the axial direction and thus in the direction of the axis of rotation of the supporting star and the drum is at least 6 mm, preferably at least 7 mm.
- liquid medium received during a rotational movement of the carrier star and the drum is applied Defines the rear wall of the drum defined and passed along desired and can flow around obstacle-free there or run through.
- a drum shaft, a tub back wall and the sealing system of the bearing during the rotational movement of the drum remain free of splash and spray water and free of incrustation by particles or foreign bodies. Unwanted bearing damage can thus be at least significantly reduced.
- Fig. 1 is shown in a longitudinal sectional view or vertical sectional view of a household appliance for the care of laundry, which is a washing machine I.
- the washing machine I comprises a housing 1, in which a vibration system 2 is arranged.
- the oscillating system 2 comprises a tub 3 of the washing machine I.
- the washing machine I and the oscillating system 2 comprises a drum 4, which is rotatably mounted in the embodiment about an axis A, which is oriented horizontally and thus in the x-direction.
- the drum 4 is designed to receive the items of laundry and surrounded by the tub 3.
- the drum 4 is rotatably supported by a shaft 5 whose axis is also oriented horizontally and coaxially with the axis A.
- a pulley 6 and a belt 7 are provided, which are drivable via a motor 8, in particular an electric motor.

- the tub 3 has on its back or rear wall recognizable only from the side of the carrier star 11, in the center of which a bearing 12 for the shaft 5 of the drum 4 is located.
- the washing machine I comprises a support star 13 for the drum 4.
- the support star 13 is viewed in the direction of the axis A behind a rear wall 14 of the drum 4 and connected to the drum 4.
- the support star 13 is rotatably connected to the shaft 5, so that the drum 4 can rotate concentrically with the bearing 12 within the tub 3.
- the support star 13 for the laundry drum 4 preferably comprises a plurality of support arms, for example, three support arms which are arranged in the direction of rotation about the axis A equidistant from each other. The support arms extend radially to the axis A.
- FIG. 2 a perspective horizontal sectional view shown and thus a section in the xz plane.
- a section through a support arm 15 of the support star 13 is shown. It can be seen that an outer side 14a of the rear wall 14 facing the support arm 15 is uneven and in particular in the region in which the support arm 15, which extends perpendicular to the plane of the figure with its longitudinal axis B, with an indentation is provided. In this indentation of the support arm 15 immersed axially seen in some areas.
- a distance is formed, which measures as a distance d with preferably greater than or equal to 7mm. It is envisaged that the support arm 15 is viewed in the direction of rotation about the axis A completely spaced from this outer side 14 a of the rear wall 14 is arranged. As a result, a flow-through gap 16 oriented in the direction of rotation about the axis A is formed. In the direction of the axis A of this flow-through gap 16 is bounded on the one hand by the outer side 14a, on the other hand limited by a wall 17, which is arranged opposite to the outer side 14a and formed Tragarm matter.

- the plane E is perpendicular to the axis A and is shown in FIG Fig. 2 oriented perpendicular to the plane of the figure.
- the plane E thus extends in the longitudinal extension of the support arm 15.
- the first wall sections are preferably inclined in a same direction as opposed wall sections of the bulge of the outer side 14a. As a result, the uniform flow of the fluid in the flow-through gap 16 is substantially favored.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Haushaltsgerät zur Pflege von Wäschestücken, mit einer Trommel zur Aufnahme der Wäschestücke, welche um eine horizontale Achse drehbar gelagert ist, und einen Tragstern, welcher in Richtung der Achse betrachtet hinter einer Rückwand der Trommel angeordnet und mit der Trommel verbunden ist. Der Tragstern weist eine Mehrzahl von radial sich erstreckenden Tragarmen auf.The invention relates to a household appliance for the care of laundry, with a drum for receiving the laundry items, which is rotatably mounted about a horizontal axis, and a support star, which viewed in the direction of the axis disposed behind a rear wall of the drum and connected to the drum. The carrier star has a plurality of radially extending support arms.
Waschmaschinen weisen üblicherweise eine Wäschetrommel auf, die drehbar gelagert ist. Dazu ist ein Tragstern vorgesehen, der üblicherweise hinter einer Rückwand der Trommel angeordnet ist und mit der Trommel drehfest verbunden ist. Als eine horizontale Drehachse der Trommel wird auch eine Drehachse verstanden, die gegenüber der Horizontalen geneigt ist und deren Neigungswinkel kleiner als 45° beträgt, d.h. die Drehachse ist im Wesentlichen horizontal.Washing machines usually have a laundry drum, which is rotatably mounted. For this purpose, a carrying star is provided, which is usually arranged behind a rear wall of the drum and is rotatably connected to the drum. As a horizontal axis of rotation of the drum is also understood a rotation axis which is inclined relative to the horizontal and whose inclination angle is less than 45 °, i. the axis of rotation is substantially horizontal.
Beispielhafte Ausgestaltungen sind aus der
Bei Waschmaschinen ist es bekannt, dass im Betrieb bei sich drehender Trommel und somit auch drehendem Tragstern beim Durchtauchen des Laugenbehälters Waschlauge durch die Tragarme mitgenommen wird und dieses in Form von Schwallwasser oder Spritzwasser direkt oder indirekt zu dem Lager gelangt und somit auch zum dortigen Dichtungssystem transportier wird. Gelangt dieses Wasser dann auch noch durch ein Dichtungselement in Richtung des Lagers hindurch, so kann es das dort befindliche Lager, beispielsweise ein Wälzlager, schädigen. In dem Zusammenhang können Rückstände in Form von Verkrustungen und Partikeln in dem Lager verbleiben, die bei einer weiteren Rotation der Trommel abrasiv auf das Dichtungselement wirken. Das Trommelsystem transportiert Wasser beziehungsweise Waschlauge zum Dichtungssystem beispielsweise dadurch, dass Schwallwasser oder Spritzwasser sich ausbildet, weil der rotierende Tragsternarm Wasser aus dem Laugenbottich an der Stirnseite oder an der Armstruktur sowie ein Schaufelrad mitnimmt und zur Außenseite abgibt. Eine weitere Möglichkeit eines entsprechenden Wassertransports ist darin gegeben, dass das Wasser an der rotierenden Rückwand der Trommel sowie auf der Verbindungsfalz der Trommel einen umlaufenden Wasserfilm bildet, der an Engstellen, wie beispielsweise zwischen einem Tragsternarm und einer Bodenscheibe beziehungsweise einer Rückwand der Trommel, gehindert wird und abreißt und ebenfalls zur Außenseite hin abgegeben wird.In washing machines, it is known that in operation with rotating drum and thus rotating star carrier when dipping the tub washing liquor is taken through the support arms and this passes directly or indirectly to the camp in the form of splash water or spray and thus transported to the local sealing system becomes. If this water then also passes through a sealing element in the direction of the bearing, it may damage the bearing located there, for example a roller bearing. In this context, residues in the form of incrustations and particles can remain in the bearing, which act on the sealing element in a further rotation of the drum abrasive. The Drum system transports water or wash liquor to the sealing system, for example, by the fact that splash or spray water forms because the rotating Tragsternarm entrains water from the tub at the front end or on the arm structure and a paddle wheel and discharges to the outside. Another possibility of a corresponding water transport is that the water forms a circulating water film on the rotating rear wall of the drum and on the connecting fold of the drum, which is prevented at bottlenecks, such as between a Tragsternarm and a bottom plate or a rear wall of the drum and breaks off and is also delivered to the outside.
Darüber hinaus wird durch bekannte Anordnungen, bei denen die Tragarme direkt an der Rückwand anliegen, der umlaufende Wasserfilm am Umlaufen gehindert und reißt am Tragsternarm ab. Dadurch wird ein erhebliches Volumen an Wasser bei einer Rotation der Trommel an die gesamte Laugenbehälterrückwand geschleudert beziehungsweise direkt zum Trommelschaft und dem Dichtungssystem befördert.In addition, is prevented by known arrangements, in which the support arms directly against the rear wall, the circulating water film from circulating and rips off the Tragsternarm. As a result, a considerable volume of water is thrown at a rotation of the drum to the entire tub rear wall or transported directly to the drum shaft and the sealing system.
Des Weiteren werden auch in der Waschlauge befindliche Flusenpartikel und kleinere Fremdkörper an die Laugenbehälterrückwand, das Trommelsystem und das Dichtungssystem transportiert, wo diese Partikel antrocknen können. Die angetrockneten Partikel bilden eine Verkrustung und wirken bei einer Rotation der Trommel ebenfalls abrasiv auf das Dichtungssystem.Furthermore, lint particles and small foreign bodies in the wash liquor are also transported to the lye container rear wall, the drum system and the sealing system, where these particles can dry. The dried-on particles form a crust and also have an abrasive effect on the sealing system during rotation of the drum.
Bei axial angebundenem Tragstern ist die Ausbildung von Spritzwasser und Schwallwasser verursacht durch das Trommelsystem geringer. Bei bekannten Geräten ist daher die häufigste Ursache von Lagerschäden auf einen Wassereinbruch durch das Lagerdichtungssystem zurückzuführen, wobei sich in dem Zusammenhang dann auch eine Rostbildung im Lager einstellen kann.In the case of an axially connected carrier star, the formation of spray water and splash water caused by the drum system is lower. In known devices, therefore, the most common cause of bearing damage is due to a water ingress through the bearing seal system, which can then set in the context, a rust formation in the camp.
Es ist Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, ein Haushaltsgerät zur Pflege von Wäschestücken zu schaffen, bei welchem das Auftreten von Lagerschäden aufgrund von eindringender Flüssigkeit im Bereich der Trommel und eines Tragsterns zumindest reduziert ist.It is an object of the present invention to provide a household appliance for the care of laundry items, in which the occurrence of bearing damage due to penetrating liquid in the region of the drum and a supporting star is at least reduced.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Haushaltsgerät, welches die Merkmale nach Anspruch 1 aufweist, gelöst.This object is achieved by a household appliance having the features of
Ein erfindungsgemäßes Haushaltsgerät zur Pflege von Wäschestücken umfasst eine Trommel zur Aufnahme der Wäschestücke. Diese Trommel ist um eine Achse drehbar gelagert. Das Haushaltsgerät umfasst darüber hinaus einen Tragstern, welcher in Richtung dieser Drehachse betrachtet hinter einer Rückwand der Trommel angeordnet und mit der Trommel verbunden ist. Der Tragstern weist eine Mehrzahl von radial sich erstreckenden Tragarmen auf. Ein wesentlicher Gedanke der Erfindung ist darin zu sehen, dass zwischen den Tragarmen und der Rückwand in axialer Richtung jeweils ein Abstand derart ausgebildet ist, dass in Umlaufrichtung um diese Drehachse betrachtet ein durchgängiger Durchströmungsspalt zwischen einem Tragarm und der Rückwand der Trommel ausgebildet ist. Der Durchströmungsspalt ist tragarmseitig durch eine Wand begrenzt, die einen ersten Wandabschnitt aufweist. Dieser erste Wandabschnitt ist zumindest bereichsweise in einem ersten Winkel zwischen 20° und 70° zu einer senkrecht zur Achse, um welche sich der Tragstern und die Trommel drehen, stehenden Ebene orientiert. Durch die Erfindung wird durch den somit in Umlaufrichtung um die Achse orientierten Durchströmungsspalt quasi ein Kanal gebildet, durch welchen das bei einer Drehung der Trommel und des Tragsterns aus einem Laugenbehälter aufgenommene flüssige Medium quasi in Drehrichtung weitergefördert wird, ohne dass es an den Tragstern und insbesondere an den Tragarmen anprallen und somit abspritzen würde. Durch einen derartig definierten Abstand zwischen einem Tragarm und der Rückwand wird auch definiert dieser Durchströmungsspalt und somit ein Fluidleitungskanal gebildet, der eine gewünschte und örtlich spezifizierte Weiterleitung des Fluids im Bereich eines Tragarms ermöglicht.An inventive household appliance for the care of laundry comprises a drum for receiving the laundry items. This drum is rotatably mounted about an axis. The household appliance further comprises a support star, which is viewed in the direction of this axis of rotation disposed behind a rear wall of the drum and connected to the drum. The carrier star has a plurality of radially extending support arms. An essential idea of the invention is to be seen in that between the support arms and the rear wall in the axial direction in each case a distance is formed such that viewed in the direction of rotation about this axis of rotation, a continuous flow gap between a support arm and the rear wall of the drum is formed. The flow-through gap is Tragarmseitig limited by a wall having a first wall portion. This first wall portion is at least partially oriented at a first angle between 20 ° and 70 ° to a plane perpendicular to the axis about which rotate the star and the drum, standing plane. As a result of the invention, a channel is formed, as it were, by the through-flow gap oriented in the direction of rotation about the axis, through which the liquid medium received from a tub during a rotation of the drum and the star is quasi conveyed further in the direction of rotation, without it touching the star and, in particular to bounce on the support arms and thus would cumshot. By means of such a defined distance between a support arm and the rear wall, this throughflow gap is defined and thus a fluid conduit is formed which permits a desired and locally specified transfer of the fluid in the region of a support arm.
Darüber hinaus spezifiziert die Erfindung diesen Durchströmungsspalt dahingehend weiter, dass eine spezifische Wand, nämlich die der Rückwand gegenüberliegende Wand, die den Durchströmungsspalt begrenzt, spezifisch geformt ist. Auch durch diese ganz spezielle Geometrie dieses ersten Wandabschnitts kann auch in dem Durchströmungsspalt vermieden werden, dass das hindurch geleitete flüssige Medium an sehr steilen Wandabschnitten, insbesondere an senkrecht zur Strömungsrichtung stehenden Wänden, anprallen würde und somit ebenfalls wieder unerwünscht zurück abschwappen oder wegspritzen würde. Die ganz spezifische Orientierung des ersten Wandabschnitts ermöglicht somit auch eine gezielte Weiterleitung des Fluids im Durchströmungsspalt.In addition, the invention further specifies this flow-through gap to the effect that a specific wall, namely the wall opposite the rear wall, which delimits the flow-through gap, is specifically shaped. Also, by this very special geometry of this first wall section can be avoided in the flow-through gap that the liquid medium passed through it would bounce on very steep wall sections, in particular standing perpendicular to the flow direction walls, and thus also abschwappen unwanted back again or splash away. The very specific orientation of the first Wall section thus also allows a targeted forwarding of the fluid in the flow-through gap.
Durch die Erfindung wird somit vermieden, dass unerwünschtes Schwallwasser oder Spritzwasser gegebenenfalls mit weiteren Partikeln, wie Flusen oder dergleichen, zu einem Dichtungssystem eines Lagers, mit welchem die Trommel und/oder der Tragstern und/oder ein Laugenbehälter gelagert sind, gelangen kann und dort über das Dichtungssystem ins Innere des Lagers gelangen kann. Oben erwähnte Lagerschäden aufgrund eintretenden Spritzwassers oder Schwallwassers, welches über die Drehbewegung des Tragsterns und der Trommel zu diesem Lager gefördert wird, kann durch die Erfindung zumindest wesentlich reduziert werden.The invention thus avoids that unwanted splash water or spray can possibly with other particles, such as lint or the like, to a sealing system of a warehouse, with which the drum and / or the supporting star and / or a tub are stored, can get over there the sealing system can enter the interior of the warehouse. Above-mentioned bearing damage due to incoming spray water or splash water, which is promoted by the rotation of the support star and the drum to this camp, can be at least substantially reduced by the invention.
Vorzugsweise beträgt dieser erste Winkel, den der erste Wandabschnitt zu einer senkrecht zur Drehachse des Tragsterns und der Trommel stehenden Ebene aufweist, zwischen 30° und 55°. Die Orientierung des ersten Wandabschnitts weist somit eine sehr vorteilhafte Schrägstellung auf, durch welche eine sehr gleichmäßige Weiterleitung des durch den Durchströmungsspalt strömenden flüssigen Mediums erreicht wird.This first angle, which the first wall section has to a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the support star and the drum, is preferably between 30 ° and 55 °. The orientation of the first wall section thus has a very advantageous inclined position, by means of which a very uniform forwarding of the liquid medium flowing through the throughflow gap is achieved.
Vorzugsweise ist vorgesehen, dass erste Wandabschnitte an gegenüberliegenden Seiten einer Längsachse eines Tragarms ausgebildet sind. Damit wird einerseits sowohl beim Eingang dieses Durchströmungsspalts als auch beim Ausgang des Durchströmungsspalts eine entsprechend vorteilhafte Geometrie geschaffen, sodass an beiden Enden des Durchströmungsspalts das Auftreten von unerwünschtem Spritzwasser oder Schwallwasser zumindest deutlich reduziert werden kann.It is preferably provided that first wall sections are formed on opposite sides of a longitudinal axis of a support arm. Thus, a correspondingly advantageous geometry is created on the one hand both at the entrance of this flow-through gap and at the outlet of the flow-through gap, so that the occurrence of undesired spray water or splash water can be at least significantly reduced at both ends of the flow-through gap.
Vorzugsweise ist vorgesehen, dass erste Wandabschnitte symmetrisch zur Längsachse eines Tragarms ausgebildet sind.It is preferably provided that first wall sections are formed symmetrically to the longitudinal axis of a support arm.
Vorzugsweise weist die tragarmseitige Wand einen zweiten Wandabschnitt auf, der an den ersten Wandabschnitt angrenzt.Preferably, the Tragarmseitige wall has a second wall portion adjacent to the first wall portion.
Der zweite Wandabschnitt ist insbesondere in einem kleineren zweiten Winkel als der erste Wandabschnitt zu der senkrecht zur Drehachse stehenden Ebenen orientiert. Es wird vorzugsweise somit quasi in einer Schnittdarstellung senkrecht zur Längsachse eines Tragarms eine gewinkelte beziehungsweise gestufte Formgebung der Wand durch die beiden Wandabschnitte gebildet, wodurch die oben genannten Vorteile nochmals begünstigt werden. Durch diesen zweiten Wandabschnitt wird die Wand somit in einer Richtung senkrecht zur Längsachse eines Tragarms erweitert und somit der Durchströmungsspalt auch verlängert. Dadurch ist die Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass unerwünschtes Spritzwasser oder Schwallwasser auftritt und in unerwünscht großer Menge in Richtung des Lagers gefördert wird, nochmals reduziert. Gerade durch die spezielle Anordnung des zweiten Wandabschnitts wird sowohl beim Eintritt als auch beim Austritt des flüssigen Mediums in den beziehungsweise aus dem Durchströmungsspalt quasi eine Ablenkung beziehungsweise ein Weglenken des flüssigen Mediums von dem Lager erreicht.The second wall section is oriented in particular at a smaller second angle than the first wall section to the planes perpendicular to the axis of rotation. It is thus preferably in a sectional view perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of a Support arm angled or stepped shaping of the wall formed by the two wall sections, whereby the above advantages are favored again. By this second wall portion, the wall is thus expanded in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of a support arm and thus the flow-through also extended. As a result, the likelihood that unwanted spray water or splash water occurs and is conveyed in an undesirably large amount in the direction of the bearing, again reduced. Just by the special arrangement of the second wall portion, a deflection or a Weglenken of the liquid medium is achieved by the camp, both at the entrance and at the outlet of the liquid medium in or out of the flow-through gap quasi.
Vorzugsweise beträgt der zweite Winkel zwischen 0° und 20°, insbesondere zwischen 0° und 10°, wobei der Winkel positiv wie negativ sein kann. Durch diese Ausgestaltung ist eine besonders flache beziehungsweise sehr gering schräg geneigte Anordnung des zweiten Wandabschnitts vorgesehen, sodass das flüssige Medium auch sehr nahe zur Trommelrückwand geführt wird und sowohl beim Eintreten als auch dann beim Austreten aus dem Durchströmungsspalt nicht unerwünscht von der Rückwand der Trommel abreißt.Preferably, the second angle is between 0 ° and 20 °, in particular between 0 ° and 10 °, wherein the angle can be positive as well as negative. By this embodiment, a particularly flat or very slightly obliquely inclined arrangement of the second wall section is provided, so that the liquid medium is also very close to the drum rear wall and not tearing both on entering and then emerging from the flow-through undesirable from the rear wall of the drum.
Der zweite Wandabschnitt kann auch zusätzlich oder anstatt dem oben dargelegten zumindest bereichsweise gekrümmt ausgebildet sein. Insbesondere kann eine Krümmung in Richtung der Rückwand der Trommel vorgesehen sein.The second wall portion may also be formed in addition or instead of the above at least partially curved. In particular, a curvature can be provided in the direction of the rear wall of the drum.
Vorzugsweise ist der zweite Wandabschnitt weiter entfernt von einer Längsachse eines Tragarms angeordnet als der erste Wandabschnitt. Die Geometrie des gesamten Durchströmungsspalts ist daher bezüglich der oben genannten Aspekte besonders vorteilhaft.Preferably, the second wall portion is located farther from a longitudinal axis of a support arm than the first wall portion. The geometry of the entire flow-through gap is therefore particularly advantageous with respect to the above-mentioned aspects.
Vorzugsweise ist vorgesehen, dass zweite Wandabschnitte an gegenüberliegenden Seiten einer Längsachse eines Tragarms ausgebildet sind, insbesondere symmetrisch zur Längsachse eines Tragarms ausgebildet sind. Es ist somit bei einer Schnittdarstellung senkrecht zur Längsachse eines Tragarms eine flügelartige Geometrie der Wand, insbesondere durch die zweiten Wandabschnitte, gebildet.It is preferably provided that second wall sections are formed on opposite sides of a longitudinal axis of a support arm, in particular formed symmetrically to the longitudinal axis of a support arm. It is thus in a sectional view perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of a support arm, a wing-like geometry of the wall, in particular by the second wall sections formed.
Vorzugsweise ist der Durchströmungsspalt zumindest in einem derartigen, zur Drehachse des Tragsterns betrachtet radial äußeren Längenbereich eines Tragarms ausgebildet, der bei Umdrehung um die Drehachse in eine Waschlauge in einem Laugenbehälter des Haushaltsgeräts eintaucht. Da gerade diese spezifischen Längenabschnitte beziehungsweise Längenbereiche eines Tragarms auch wesentlich zur Weiterleitung des bei der Drehung aufgenommenen flüssigen Mediums beitragen, ist diese örtliche Spezifikation der Ausbildung des Durchströmungsspalts mit der spezifisch gestalteten Wand besonders vorteilhaft.Preferably, the flow-through gap is formed, at least in such a radially outer longitudinal region of a support arm, viewed in relation to the axis of rotation of the support star, which immerses in rotation in a wash liquor in a tub of the domestic appliance when rotating about the axis of rotation. Since just these specific lengths or lengths of a support arm also contribute significantly to the forwarding of the liquid medium received during the rotation, this local specification of the formation of the flow-through gap with the specifically designed wall is particularly advantageous.
Insbesondere ist die tragarmseitige Wand zur Begrenzung des Durchströmungsspalts zumindest in einem derartigen, zur Drehachse des Tragsterns betrachteten radial äußeren Längenbereich eines Tragarms ausgebildet, der bei Umdrehung um die Achse in eine Waschlauge in einem Laugenbehälter des Haushaltsgeräts eintaucht. Auch hier gilt das oben für den Durchströmungsspalt Gesagte entsprechend.In particular, the support arm-side wall for limiting the flow-through gap is formed at least in such, considered to the axis of rotation of the support star radially outer length portion of a support arm, which dips on rotation about the axis in a wash liquor in a tub of the household appliance. Again, what has been said above for the flow-through gap applies accordingly.
In einer vorteilhaften Ausführung ist die tragarmseitig den Durchströmungsspalt begrenzende Wand in den Tragarm integriert. Dies ist eine besonders vorteilhafte Ausführung, da somit sowohl die Bauteilzahl reduziert ist, als auch Montageaufwand minimiert ist. Im besonderen Maße ist durch diese Ausgestaltung jedoch eine sehr genaue örtliche Lage des Tragarms als solchen zu dieser Wand erreicht, da durch die Integration keine unerwünschten Positionstoleranzen, insbesondere im Betrieb und somit beim Drehen des Tragsterns auftreten.In an advantageous embodiment, the Tragarmseitig the flow gap defining wall is integrated into the support arm. This is a particularly advantageous embodiment, since thus both the number of components is reduced, and assembly effort is minimized. In particular, however, a very accurate local position of the support arm is achieved as such to this wall, as a result of the integration no unwanted position tolerances, especially during operation and thus when turning the supporting star.
Es kann auch vorgesehen sein, dass die tragarmseitige Wand bzw. zumindest ein Wandabschnitt der tragarmseitigen Wand zur Begrenzung des Durchströmungsspalts als separates Bauteil zu dem Tragstern ausgebildet ist und als Abdeckung einen Tragarm auf der dem Durchströmungsspalt abgewandten Seite eines Tragarms abdeckt. Durch eine derartige Ausgestaltung kann die herkömmliche Serienfertigung eines Tragsterns weiter entsprechend erfolgen und durch ein entsprechendes zusätzliches Bauteil, nämlich die Abdeckung, die die Begrenzungswand bzw. Abschnitte der Begrenzungswand für den Durchströmungsspalt aufweist, die gewünschte Funktionalität erreicht werden.It can also be provided that the support arm-side wall or at least one wall section of the support arm-side wall for limiting the flow-through gap is formed as a separate component to the support star and covers a support arm on the side facing away from the flow-through gap of a support arm as a cover. By such a configuration, the conventional mass production of a supporting star can continue to be carried out accordingly and the desired functionality can be achieved by a corresponding additional component, namely the cover, which has the boundary wall or sections of the boundary wall for the flow-through gap.
Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Abdeckung als Rinne beziehungsweise als U-Profil ausgebildet ist, wobei sich die Abdeckung über die Länge des abzudeckenden Tragarms erstreckt. Durch diese Geometrie und Längenausmaße ist ebenfalls eine vorteilhafte Ausführung zur Vermeidung eines unerwünschten Eintritts von flüssigem Medium in das Lager erreicht.It can be provided that the cover is formed as a groove or as a U-profile, wherein the cover extends over the length of the support arm to be covered. By this geometry and length dimensions, an advantageous embodiment is also achieved to avoid an undesirable entry of liquid medium into the warehouse.
Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Formgebung der den Durchströmungsspalt begrenzenden Wand mit zumindest dem ersten Wandabschnitt in einem Seitenteil dieser Abdeckung ausgebildet ist, wenn dieses als rinnenförmiges Bauteil gestaltet ist.It may be provided that the shaping of the wall defining the flow-through gap is formed with at least the first wall section in a side part of this cover, if this is designed as a groove-shaped component.
Es kann auch vorgesehen sein, dass die Abdeckung in Umlaufrichtung um die Achse, um welche sich der Tragstern und die Trommel drehen, in einem derartigen, zu dieser Drehachse des Tragsterns betrachtet radial äußeren Längenbereich eines Tragarms verdickt ausgebildet ist, der bei Umdrehung um die Achse in eine Waschlauge in einem Laugenbehälter des Haushaltsgeräts eintaucht. Durch diese spezifische Verdickung in Umlaufrichtung um die Drehachse kann die in die Abdeckung integrierte Ausgestaltung dieser Begrenzungswand des Durchströmungsspalts größenmäßig und geometriemäßig besonders vorteilhaft ausgebildet werden und in dem Zusammenhang die Abdeckung dann auch sehr stabil in diesem Bereich gestaltet werden. Gerade auch bei sehr hohen Drehzahlen ist diese Abdeckung dann entsprechend verwindungssteif, sodass der gewünschte Effekt zur gezielten Leitung des aufgenommenen flüssigen Mediums auch in derartigen Betriebsphasen aufrecht erhalten ist.It can also be provided that the cover in the direction of rotation about the axis about which rotate the support star and the drum, in such, viewed to this axis of rotation of the support star radially outer length portion of a support arm is formed thickened when rotating about the axis immersed in a wash liquor in a tub of the household appliance. As a result of this specific thickening in the direction of rotation about the axis of rotation, the embodiment of this boundary wall of the throughflow gap integrated in the cover can be made particularly advantageous in terms of geometry and geometry, and in that context the cover can also be made very stable in this area. Especially at very high speeds, this cover is then correspondingly rigid, so that the desired effect for the targeted management of the absorbed liquid medium is maintained even in such operating phases.
Im Übrigen ist eine entsprechende Überdimensionierung in der Dicke der Abdeckung in den Bereichen, in denen eine entsprechende unerwünschte Flüssigkeitsleitung zum Lager ohnehin nicht oder nur bedingt auftritt, nicht erforderlich, sodass auch durch diese spezifische Ausgestaltung die Abdeckung nicht überdimensioniert ist.Incidentally, a corresponding over-dimensioning in the thickness of the cover in the areas in which a corresponding undesirable fluid line to the camp anyway or only partially occurs, not required, so that the cover is not oversized by this specific embodiment.
Vorzugsweise ist vorgesehen, dass der Durchströmungsspalt in axialer Richtung und somit in Richtung der Drehachse des Tragsterns und der Trommel mindestens 6mm, vorzugsweise mindestens 7mm, aufweist.It is preferably provided that the flow-through gap in the axial direction and thus in the direction of the axis of rotation of the supporting star and the drum is at least 6 mm, preferably at least 7 mm.
Durch die Erfindung oder einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung davon wird bei einer Drehbewegung des Tragsterns und der Trommel aufgenommenes flüssiges Medium an der Rückwand der Trommel definiert und gewünscht entlang geleitet und kann dort hindernisfrei umströmen beziehungsweise durchlaufen. Dadurch bleiben ein Trommelschaft, eine Laugenbehälterrückwand und das Dichtungssystem des Lagers bei der Rotationsbewegung der Trommel frei von Schwall- und Spritzwasser sowie frei von Verkrustungen durch Partikel oder Fremdkörper. Unerwünschte Lagerschäden können somit zumindest wesentlich reduziert werden.By means of the invention or an advantageous embodiment thereof, liquid medium received during a rotational movement of the carrier star and the drum is applied Defines the rear wall of the drum defined and passed along desired and can flow around obstacle-free there or run through. As a result, a drum shaft, a tub back wall and the sealing system of the bearing during the rotational movement of the drum remain free of splash and spray water and free of incrustation by particles or foreign bodies. Unwanted bearing damage can thus be at least significantly reduced.
