  • the method for realising a device for a washing machine for supply of water to the trays of the washing machine containing detergents comprises one or more of the following characteristics, considered singly or in combination:
  • reference numeral 1 denotes in its entirety the device for a washing machine for supply of water to the trays (not illustrated) of the washing machine, containing detergents, for example in powder, granular, liquid form, etc.
  • the present device (1) for a washing machine for supply of water, comprises:
  • the shower group (2) is installable in the washing machine so that the perforated base (28) is arranged above the trays and faces the trays in order to enable water supply contained in the storage chambers (3).
  • the device (1) for a washing machine for supply of water comprises a plurality of assembly channels (6) defined, in a coupling configuration (Z), by the closing cover (5) and the upper ends (200) of the lateral walls (20) and the internal walls (25) of the shower group (2).
  • the assembly channels (6) advantageously have plastic material (7) (for example thermoplastic, heat-hardening plastic, etc.) injected therein, by means of injection moulding, so as to isolate and delimit the storage chambers (3) of the water and the conveying channels (4) of the water.
  • plastic material (7) for example thermoplastic, heat-hardening plastic, etc.
  • the assembly channels (6) are defined by first grooves (50) realised in the closing cover (5) with the upper ends (200) of the lateral walls (20) and the internal walls (25) of the shower group (2) being faced to the first grooves (50) in the coupling configuration (Z).
  • the assembly channels (6) are further defined by second grooves (250) realised in the upper ends (200) of the lateral walls (20) and the internal walls (25) of the shower group (2).
  • the second grooves (250) face the first grooves (50), so as to define the assembly channels (6).
  • the assembly channels (6) can be defined by projections (350) which extend from the upper ends (200) of the lateral walls (20) and of the internal walls (25) of the shower group (2).
  • the projections (350) face the first grooves (50), so as to define the assembly channels (6).
  • the assembly channels (6) are substantially closed and provided with a plurality of sections (8) for injection of plastic material ( figures 4-4B , 6-6B ).
  • the closing cover (5) can be complementarily profiled with respect to the storage chambers (3) and the conveying channels (4) of the shower group (2).
  • the method for realising the device (1) of the invention for a washing machine for supply of water into the trays of the washing machine containing detergents further comprises following operating steps:
  • providing a mould containing the shower group (2) and the closing cover (5) in a coupling configuration (Z) comprises:
  • the mutual positioning of the first matrix and the second matrix can comprise a translation and/or rotation movement.
  • translation of the second matrix containing the closing cover (5) can be included so as to face the closing cover (5) to the shower group (2) contained in the first matrix, to define the coupling configuration (Z).
  • the first matrix containing the shower group (2) can be translated so as to face the shower group (2) to the closing cover (5) contained in the second matrix.
  • a further possibility is to rotate the second matrix containing the closing cover (5) so as to face the closing cover (5) to the shower group (2) contained in the first matrix, or alternatively to rotate the first matrix containing the shower group (2) so as to face the shower group (2) to the closing cover (5) contained in the second matrix.
  • the mutual positioning of the first matrix and the second matrix might include a combined translation and rotation movements.
  • the injection of plastic material (7) internally of the assembly channels (6) comprises an injection internally of the first grooves (50) realised in the closing cover (5) with the upper ends (200) of the lateral walls (20) and the internal walls (25) of the shower group (2) being faced to the first grooves (50) in a coupling configuration (Z) ( figures 5, 5A , 5B ).
  • the injection of plastic material (7) internally of the assembly channels (6) further comprises the injection internally of the second grooves (250) realised in the upper ends (200) of the lateral walls (20) and the internal walls (25) of the shower group (2) ( figures 4 , 4A, 4B ).
  • first grooves (50) facing the second grooves (250) in a coupling configuration (Z) define the assembly channels (6) ( figure 4A ).
  • the proposed device for a washing machine for supply of water is consequently free of burring and/or machining residues which might obstruct and/or deviate the water pathway, as occurs in the devices of the prior art in which the coupling of the shower group and the closing cover is done by welding (vibration, hot-knife, spot) with extremely long working times.
  • the proposed method for realising the device for a washing machine for supply of water of the invention is able to ensure assembly steps of the shower group and the closing cover that are extremely rapid and intuitive.
