Description
Türgriff für eine Tür eines frontbeschickbaren Haushaltsgerätes, wie beispielsweise einer Waschmaschine, einem Wäschetrockner oder einem WaschtrocknerDoor handle for a door of a front-loading household appliance, such as a washing machine, a tumble dryer or a washer-dryer
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Türgriff für eine Tür eines frontbeschickbaren Haushaltsgerätes, wie beispielsweise einer Waschmaschine, einem Wäschetrockner oder einem Waschtrockner mit einer Trommel zur Wäschebehandlung, dessen Beschickungsöffnung an der Front mit einer als Ring anscharnierten Tür verschließbar ist, wobei zum Schließen und Öffnen im Randbereich des Ringes ein als Handhabe ausgebildetes Griffelement vorgesehen ist.The invention relates to a door handle for a door of a front loadable household appliance, such as a washing machine, a tumble dryer or a laundry dryer with a drum for laundry treatment, the feed opening is closed at the front with a hinged door as a ring, closing and opening in the edge region of the Ringes designed as a handle grip element is provided.
Aus dem Stand der Technik ist es bekannt, dass beispielsweise Haushaltsgeräte, welche als Behandlungsraum eine Trommel umfassen, in der die Wäsche programmgesteuert behandelt wird, in der Frontseite des Maschinengehäuses eine anscharnierte Tür aufweisen. Die Tür umfasst hierbei einen Ring, wobei in dem Ring beispielsweise ein Schauglas angeordnet ist, durch das der Behandlungsraum in verschlossenem Zustand einsehbar ist.It is known from the prior art that, for example, household appliances, which comprise a drum as the treatment room, in which the laundry is treated programmatically, have a hinged door in the front of the machine housing. The door in this case comprises a ring, wherein in the ring, for example, a sight glass is arranged, through which the treatment room is visible in the closed state.
Zum Verschluss der Tür gibt es unterschiedliche Möglichkeiten, um die Tür an der Frontseite zu verriegeln. Die Tür kann mittels einer Steuerung im Bereich des Bedienfeldes entriegelt werden, wobei dann die Tür von Hand geöffnet werden kann, um auf diese Weise entsprechend den Zugriffsfreiraum durch die Beschickungsöffnung zu der Trommel zu erhalten. Auf diese Weise kann entweder eine Entleerung oder Befüllung der Waschmaschine oder des Wäschetrockners bewerkstelligt werden.To lock the door, there are different ways to lock the door at the front. The door can be unlocked by means of a control in the region of the control panel, in which case the door can then be opened by hand, in order in this way to obtain the access space through the loading opening to the drum. In this way, either a drain or filling of the washing machine or the tumble dryer can be accomplished.
Eine derartige frontbeschickbare Wäschebehandlungsmaschine ist hier beispielsweise aus der
Somit gibt die Anordnung des Griffelementes gemäß dem Stand der Technik dem Benutzer die Eingriffsmöglichkeit für die Fingerkuppen der Hand vor, wie er die Tür zu öffnen hat. Dies bedeutet, dass er, wenn er beispielsweise eine Befüllung der Maschine vorgenommen hat, dann letztendlich immer in den radialen Innenbereich oder in den radialen Außenbereich der Tür eingreifen muss, um so die Verschlusssituation oder die Offenstellung herzustellen. Eine andere Möglichkeit ergibt sich, wenn beispielsweise der Türring irgendwie mit der Hand auf die Öffnung gedrückt wird, wobei sich hier eine Fehlverrasterung des Verschlussteils ergeben kann. Auch ist insbesondere bei der Öffnung des Türrings dann immer der Eingriff von innen oder außen her vorgegeben, was schon eine bestimmte Stellungsposition des Benutzers zum Maschinengehäuse erfordert. Entsprechende Probleme ergeben sich auch für Personen, die Linkshändler oder Rechtshändler sind.Thus, the arrangement of the handle element according to the prior art, the user the possibility of engagement for the fingertips of the hand, as he has to open the door. This means that if he has made a filling of the machine, for example, then ultimately always has to engage in the radial inner region or in the radial outer region of the door so as to produce the closure situation or the open position. Another possibility arises when, for example, the door ring is somehow pressed by hand on the opening, which may result in Fehlverrasterung of the closure part. Also, in particular during the opening of the door ring, the engagement is always predetermined from the inside or the outside, which already requires a certain position of the user to the machine housing. Corresponding problems also arise for persons who are left-handed or right-handers.
Der Erfindung stellt sich somit das Problem, einen Türgriff für eine Tür eines frontbeschickbaren Haushaltsgerätes derart weiterzubilden, der insbesondere eine Wahl von unterschiedlichen Eingriffsmöglichkeiten zum Schließen und Öffnen der Tür bereitstellt.The invention thus raises the problem of further developing a door handle for a door of a front-loading household appliance, which in particular provides a choice of different intervention options for closing and opening the door.
Erfindungsgemäß wird dieses Problem mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den nachfolgenden Unteransprüchen.According to the invention, this problem is solved by the features of
Der erfindungsgemäße Tunnelgriff ermöglicht es, dass dem Benutzer die Freiheit gegeben ist, ob er die Tür vom Eingriff her radial von außen oder radial von innen öffnen kann. Somit kann der Benutzer selbst entscheiden, ob er in den Türring von außen oder von innen radial ergreifen kann. Aufgrund dieser Ausbildung ergibt sich nun der Vorteil, dass beim Öffnen oder Schließen der Tür die Handhabung zum Ergreifen des Türringes nicht mehr standortgebunden ist von dem der Benutzer den Eingriff vorzunehmen hat, da er nun die Möglichkeit hat, entweder innen radial oder auch außen radial einzugreifen. Steht er rechts von der Beschickungsöffnung, kann er nun wählen, wie er als Rechts- oder Linkshänder einen besseren Eingriff in den Tunnelgriff bekommt. Entsprechendes gilt auch, wenn er links von der Beschickungsöffnung steht, um die Tür zu öffnen. Er kann entsprechend, ob er nun Rechtshänder oder Linkshänder ist, die für ihn günstige Eingriffsposition wählen. Entsprechendes gilt auch für den Standpunkt, den der Benutzer vor der Waschmaschine oder des Wäschetrockners wählt. Hier besteht die Möglichkeit, sich frontal, rechts oder links vor der Beschickungsöffnung zu positionieren, um dann entsprechend mit der Hand den günstigsten Eingriff auszuführen. Dies, ohne dass er dadurch seine Standortposition verändern muss.The tunnel handle according to the invention makes it possible for the user to be given the freedom as to whether he can open the door radially from the outside or radially from the inside. Thus, the user can decide for himself whether he can take in the door ring from the outside or from the inside radially. Due to this design, there is now the advantage that when opening or closing the door handling for gripping the door ring is no longer tied to the location of which the user has to make the intervention, since he now has the opportunity to intervene either radially inside or radially outside , If he is standing to the right of the loading opening, he can now choose how he, as a right-handed or left-handed person, gets a better grip on the tunnel handle. The same applies if it is to the left of the loading opening, to open the door. He can accordingly, whether he is now right-handed or left-handed, choose the favorable engagement position for him. The same applies to the position that the user selects in front of the washing machine or the tumble dryer. Here it is possible to position yourself frontally, to the right or to the left in front of the charging opening, in order to carry out the most favorable engagement by hand. This, without him having to change his location.
Gemäß der Erfindung wird hierzu merkmalsgemäß vorgeschlagen, dass das Griffelement im Randbereich des Ringes einen Eingriff bzw. ein Einführen der Fingerkuppen einer Hand sowie radial von außen als auch radial von innen her zulässt. Diese Möglichkeit ist nun derart von Vorteil, dass, wie bereits beschrieben, standortunabhängig und auch, ob der Benutzer hier Rechtshänder oder Linkshänder ist, entsprechende Eingriffsmöglichkeiten am Türring gegeben sind, die jedem Standpunkt und jeder Eingriffsstärke gerecht wird.According to the invention, it is proposed according to feature that the grip element in the edge region of the ring allows engagement or insertion of the fingertips of a hand and radially from the outside and radially from the inside. This possibility is now so advantageous that, as already described, regardless of location and whether the user is right-handed or left-handed, appropriate intervention options are given on the door ring, which is suitable for every point of view and each intervention strength.
Nach einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung ist das Griffelement im Ring der Tür integriert angeordnet. Hierzu ist das Griffelement im ringförmigen Rahmen der Tür angeordnet. Das Griffelement ist dabei im ringförmigen Rahmen tunnelförmig ausgebildet.According to an advantageous embodiment, the grip element is arranged integrated in the ring of the door. For this purpose, the grip element is arranged in the annular frame of the door. The grip element is designed tunnel-shaped in the annular frame.
Nach einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung bilden die gegenüberliegenden Öffnungen des Tunnels jeweils die Eingriffsöffnungen bzw. die Einführöffnungen für die Fingerkuppen. Dabei sind die Öffnungen im Seitenbereich des ringförmigen Rahmens angeordnet, der im Querschnitt eine Trapezform aufweist. In Weiterbildung erstrecken sich hierbei die Öffnungsschlitze des Griffelementes über die gerundeten Seitenflanken des ringförmigen Rahmens. Somit fügen sich insbesondere die Öffnungen hier am Ringbereich derart ein, dass sie in die Form des Ringes sowie hinsichtlich des Erscheinungsbildes nicht störend wirken.According to an advantageous development, the opposite openings of the tunnel respectively form the engagement openings or the insertion openings for the fingertips. In this case, the openings are arranged in the side region of the annular frame, which has a trapezoidal shape in cross section. In a further development, the opening slots of the grip element extend over the rounded side edges of the annular frame. Thus, in particular, the openings here at the ring area fit in such a way that they do not interfere with the shape of the ring and with respect to the appearance.
