Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a household appliance, in particular a washing machine or a washer-dryer for laundry or dishes.
  • a closure is usually provided. This closure is usually carried out by a flap or by a ball. The flap or the ball is pressed by the static buoyancy of the tub or the labbalg and thus prevents leakage of the detergent.
  • WO 87/02078 A1 is a washing machine or a tumble dryer with an automatic detergent-adding device and a washing solution via a drain hose sloping drain pump and with a device to prevent detergent losses known.
  • a buoyancy body is provided in the sequence of the machine, which is pressed after switching off the drain pump from the water flowing back from a water reservoir in a sealing arrangement on Laugen hereerablauf, and thus closes the flow of the tub.
  • a disadvantage of the prior art is that the known closures obstruct the dehumidification of the laundry, which in turn can lead to problems during removal or when pumping out the liquor.
  • the object is achieved by means of a household appliance with a tub and a tub outlet with a flow channel for discharging a liquor from the tub, wherein the tub outlet has a closure which closes between a closed position to the tub outlet from the tub, and an open position, to allow a discharge of a liquor from the tub, is designed to be movable, wherein the tub outlet has a bypass device, which is arranged laterally discharging from the flow channel of the tub outlet, wherein the bypass device is set, the closure by means of a flow through the bypass device in the open position transfer, and at least partially release the flow channel of the tub outlet.
  • the domestic appliance has a control which is designed to effect the flow through the bypass device.
  • the control can be realized for example by an electric directional control valve or a liquid-operated pressure actuation, and it would also be conceivable to use an outgoing electric field from the drive for switching the directional control valve.
  • the household appliance has a pump to remove a liquor from the tub.
  • the removal of a liquor from the tub must not necessarily be done by means of a pump.
  • the bypass device for lye liquid from the tub is formed permeable.
  • liquor from the tub can be used directly to flow through the bypass, thus to transfer the closure in the open position, or in the parking position, and thus release the flow channel of the tub outlet.
  • the tub outlet has a first guide means to the closure during transfer to the open position lead and release the flow channel of the tub outlet at least partially. This enables efficient and reliable operation with relatively simple means.
  • the closure is used to the first guide means.
  • suitable training, or by a suitable orientation of the first guide means a transfer of the closure is achieved in the opening of the tub eye opening position.
  • the first guide means has guide ribs which are arranged in the flow channel of the tub outlet.
  • the closure is designed as a buoyant body.
  • the buoyant body may for example consist of a foamed material.
  • the foamed material may only have a lower specific weight.
  • its absorbency must also be very low.
  • the buoyant body may also consist of two half-shells exist, which can be made for example of a thermoplastic.
  • the household appliance knows a reservoir for beaute liquor.
  • the reservoir is located as high as possible within the household appliance and after stopping the pump, the forming water column remains as high as possible, so that the buoyancy body by the in the reservoir standing liquor liquid with the highest possible force in the closed position to close the tub outlet from the tub, is arranged.
  • the tub outlet has a sealant.
  • the sealing means is preferably adapted in its shape and design to the shape of the closure.
  • the tub outlet has a second guide means for guiding the closure to the sealing means.
  • the second guide means is cylindrical or conical.
  • the tub outlet with the sealing means and / or the second guide means is formed as a one-piece rubber element. This additionally reduces both the manufacturing costs and the assembly costs in the manufacture of the household appliance.
  • the formation of the tub outlet of the sealant and the second guide means can be replaced as a one-piece rubber element, in the case of repairs or signs of wear as an entire component with little effort.
  • the object is achieved by means of a method for operating a domestic appliance with the steps of generating a flow through the bypass device, transfer of the closure from the closed position to the open position, at least partially releasing the flow channel of the tub outlet and discharging a liquor from the tub solved.
  • the flow through the bypass device is generated by means of a liquor liquid discharged from the tub.
  • liquor from the tub can be used directly to flow through the bypass, thus to transfer the closure in the open position, or in the parking position, and thus release the flow channel of the tub outlet.
  • a flow through the bypass device is generated and the removal of a liquor liquid from the tub with a pump. This reduces the effort in the production of the household appliance and the repair vulnerability in addition. In other words, both the discharge of a liquor from the tub and the flow through the bypass device can be realized with a single pump.
  • FIG. 1 shows a schematic representation of a household appliance 100 with a tub 101 and a tub outlet 103.
  • a pump 107 to carry off the liquor from the tub 101 via the tub outlet 103 from the household appliance 100.
  • a reservoir 115 which is formed as a storage for discharged liquor liquid, and an outlet 117 to discard liquor liquid from the household appliance 100 in a sewer network.
  • FIG. 2 shows a schematic representation of a tub outlet 103, wherein at an upper end of the tub outlet 103 is surrounded by a sealing means 117 opening.
  • the tub outlet 103 is presently designed as a bellows.
  • the opening bounded by the sealant 117 at the upper end of the tub drain 103 is opposite the tub 101 (not shown) located at an upper end of the tub drain 103 connects closed.
  • the closure (not shown) is in an open position, the opening bounded by the sealing means 117 is opened and lye liquid can be removed from the tub 101.

  • the flow channel 113 of the tub outlet 103 continues.
  • FIG. 4 shows a further schematic representation of a tub outlet 103.
  • the flow channel 113 which extends through the tub outlet 103 through it to discharge liquor from the tub 101 begins.
  • a bypass device 109 is located parallel to a middle section of the tub drain 103. Both the flow through the tub drain 103 and the flow through the bypass device 109 are effected by a pump (not shown).
  • FIG. 5 shows a still further schematic representation of a tub outlet 103 with the bypass device 109 and the at the top Section of the tub outlet 103, the flow channel 113 in the radial direction limiting sealant 117th

  • the sealing means 117 At the upper portion of the tub outlet 103 is the sealing means 117 which limits the flow channel 113 in the radial direction.
  • a second guide means 112 Below the sealing means 117 is a second guide means 112, which is cylindrical or cone-shaped, in order to automatically transfer the closure or the buoyant body (not shown) into the correct position or into the closed position.
  • Lateral from the flow channel 113 of the tub outlet 103 discharging the bypass device 109 is arranged.
  • first guide means 111 Within the tub drain 103 are first guide means 111, which are formed as guide ribs which protrude into the flow passage 113 of the tub outlet 103.
  • the number of in FIG. 6 arranged guide ribs three.
  • the first guide means may also consist of one, two or a plurality of guide ribs, as long as the first guide means serves the purpose, the closure or the buoyancy body (not shown) in forming a suction, by flowing through the bypass device 109, in a precise opening position or Park position to bring and at least partially release the flow channel 113.
  • FIG. 7 shows a schematic representation of the operation of the first guide means 111 in a tub outlet 103 (not shown).
