Definitions

  • the invention relates to an operating device for a household appliance, which has an operating element and a frame surrounding and separate from the operating element.
  • the operating device also includes a separate carrier, which has a frame receptacle in which the frame is sunk.
  • the frame has at least one fastening element which can be coupled to a counter element, which is arranged on the carrier, for fastening to the carrier.
  • the invention also relates to a household appliance with such an operating device.
  • the disclosure EP 2 568 073 A2 describes a washing machine.
  • the disclosure KR 2003 0092187 A describes a washing machine.
  • the disclosure KR 2006 0085817 A describes a washing machine.
  • the frame is inserted in a feedthrough or a hole designed as a frame holder.
  • This hole is provided with an encircling flange which is lowered or recessed in relation to the rest of the front area of the frame receptacle.
  • the frame rests on this lowered flange, so that this frame is also sunk, at least in some areas, with respect to the further edge area of the carrier.
  • the frame is integrally formed with a plurality of separate, rearward-facing latching hooks. These snap or snap in the assembled final state of the frame with tabs that are integrally formed on the carrier. These tabs are oriented inwards and thus towards the recess and are engaged behind by the locking hooks of the frame.
  • An operating device for a household appliance accordingly comprises an operating element and a separate frame, which surrounds the operating element on the circumference.
  • the operating device also comprises a support separate from the operating element and the frame, which has a frame receptacle in which the frame is arranged sunk when the frame is arranged there in its installed end position.
  • the frame has at least one fastening element which can be coupled to a counter element, which is arranged on the carrier, for fastening the frame to the carrier.
  • Such a very advantageous embodiment ensures that a reliable and simple installation of the frame on the carrier is always achieved even with the most varied tolerances that can occur.
  • this configuration makes it possible, as it were, for the complementary element to engage in the elongated hole to a certain extent, so that a reliable coupling and an associated mechanical mounting and fastening are always achieved.
  • Through this elongated hole there is always a mechanical coupling of the then complementary one Elements reached to this elongated hole and then also allows at least partial engagement and coupling, which already entails the reliable mounting of the frame on the carrier.
  • the element engaging in the elongated hole can be positioned with play in the elongated hole. This means that in the assembled end position the clear width of the elongated hole is not completely filled by the corresponding engaging element.
  • the frame receptacle is square and a tab is formed on each of the walls of the carrier delimiting the frame receptacle, in each of which a counter element is formed. This also results in a component-reduced configuration, since these tabs are particularly integrated into the walls of the carrier and are therefore formed in one piece therewith. The assembly accuracy is further increased, on the other hand, the assembly effort is reduced.
  • the corresponding other element engaging in the elongated hole is conical.
  • this also means in particular that if, for example, the counter element is designed as an elongated hole, the fastening element formed on the frame, which is then the corresponding other element, is conical.
  • This geometry of this corresponding other element is very advantageous because, due to the corresponding slope of the jacket wall of the element, which results from the conicity, there is already some engagement in the elongated hole and not, as is the case, for example, with a strict cylindrical shape of the element the case is, a mechanical coupling with the elongated hole only occurs if there is such a large overlap that this cylindrical element also plunges into the elongated hole and then completely immerses in the context.
  • the other element engaging in the elongated hole is designed as a conical truncated cone.
  • the element is not undesirably large in its height direction, so that a corresponding space compactness is achieved.
  • At least two fastening elements and at least two counter-elements are formed, which are designed in position and / or geometry in such a way that an assembly code is formed for the assembly of the frame on the carrier.
  • a structure with fastening elements and counter elements is thus created, which is multifunctional.
  • the other function can also be seen in that an incorrect installation of the frame on the carrier is prevented.
  • the assembly coding additionally has a further, separate coding element, which is arranged differently in particular from the fastening elements and the counter-elements and / or is designed differently in terms of shape.
  • the coding element is arranged on an outside of a frame wall of the frame and is arranged at a distance from a fastening element formed on the outside.
  • this further coding element is integrated on this outside of the frame wall and is therefore formed in one piece. It therefore protrudes from this outside of the frame wall in the same direction of elevation as the fastening element.
  • the further coding element is arranged in such a way that in the event of an incorrect attempt to mount the frame on the carrier, a tab of the carrier having the counter element is pressed outward and coupling of the fastening element to the counter element is prevented.
  • the coding element thus creates an automatic coupling prevention structure which prevents coupling between the fastening element and the counter element.
  • the carrier has the square frame receptacle and one, in particular only one resilient tab, which is formed centrally with respect to the length of a side wall and on which the respective fastening element is formed, is formed on each of the four boundary walls of the frame receptacle.
  • This all-round structure with several separate elastic tabs enables a very symmetrical installation of the frame on the carrier and also achieves mechanical coupling to the frame on all side walls. As a result, the frame is kept particularly stable and the frame can then be held on the carrier on all side walls even with appropriate tolerances.
  • such a tab has an elongated hole as the counter element, as a result of which the advantages mentioned add up.
  • an insertion bevel for inserting the frame is formed in a flap which is formed in a wall of the carrier delimiting the frame receptacle, in particular this insertion bevel is embodied integrated in the flap.
  • Such an insertion bevel simplifies the insertion of the frame into the frame receptacle of the carrier, since this also enables a certain offset and thus also off-center attachment, and a certain self-centering of the frame in the frame receptacle can also be achieved through the insertion bevel. This also reduces the assembly effort and simplifies the assembly, but nevertheless enables the frame to be positioned precisely on the support.
  • the lead-in chamfer is oriented outwards towards the entrance of the frame receptacle, so that the frame receptacle is quasi widened towards the entrance.
  • control element is a touch-sensitive control panel, which in particular completely fills the hole delimited by the frame and which engages behind the frame with a contact flange.
  • This control panel is thus designed with a large surface area at the front and extends through the hole which is delimited by the frame, but engages behind the frame on the back with the abutment flange mentioned. This configuration improves the precise positional arrangement between the control element and the frame.
  • the invention also relates to a household appliance with an operating device according to the invention or an advantageous embodiment thereof.
  • the carrier of the operating device can in particular be an operating panel, which thus also represents a front outer part of the operating device and thus also the household appliance.
  • the frame can also be arranged with its front area and thus also with its front side as a front-side outer part of the operating device, so that this also represents a visible component.
  • the frame holder is formed in one piece with the carrier, in particular designed as an embossing.
  • the carrier is preferably made of sheet metal or plastic.
  • the frame is made in particular of plastic.
  • the household appliance can preferably be designed to care for laundry items and can be, for example, a washing machine or a tumble dryer or a washer dryer.
  • Fig. 1 is shown in front view of a household appliance 1, which is designed in particular for the care of laundry.
  • the household appliance 1 comprises a housing 2, in which a laundry drum 3 is rotatably mounted. At the front, the laundry drum 3 can be closed by a door 4 which is pivotably arranged on the housing 2.
  • the household appliance 1 also includes an operating device 5.
  • the operating device 5 comprises an operating element 6, which is designed as a touch-sensitive operating element and comprises a touch-sensitive operating panel 7.
  • the control device 5 also comprises a frame 8, which is formed separately from the control element 6 and completely surrounds the control element 6, in particular the control panel 7, at the edge.
  • the control panel 7 is thus encircled by the frame 8 on the circumference, the frame 8 in the installed state likewise being a visible component on the front.
  • the operating device 5 comprises an operating panel 9, which represents a carrier of the operating device 5.
  • the control panel 9 is also a front outer part and thus a visible component which receives the frame 8.
  • the frame 8 is therefore releasably attached to the control panel 9 in a non-destructive manner.
  • FIG. 2 the operating device 5 with the frame 8 and the operating element 6 is shown in an enlarged view.
  • Fig. 3 is the representation according to Fig. 2 shown along section line III-III. It can be seen that the frame 8 is inserted in a frame receptacle 10, which represents a hole, of the control panel 9. In this context, this frame receptacle 10 is delimited by walls 11 of the control panel 9, these walls 11 then also having depressions 12 which are designed as embossments 12. These embossments 12 produce depressions in which the frame 8 is recessed with a front web or flange 25.
  • Fig. 4 is an enlarged view of the partial section A in Fig. 3 shown.
  • a flap 13 is integrally formed on the embossing 12 and has a bend as an insertion bevel 14.
  • the tab 13 also has a counter element 15 as an elongated hole, in which a fastening element 16 engages, which is an integrally formed conical truncated cone on a side wall 17 of the frame 8.
  • This side wall 17 opens onto the flange 25, so that in the sectional illustration shown a T-shape of the frame 8 is formed at this interface.
  • this is designed correspondingly on the circumference of frame 8.
  • the recessed arrangement of the frame 8 and in particular the flange 25 in the trough formed by the embossing 12 is in Fig. 4 to recognize.
  • the elongated hole represents a counter element 15, which is integrated in the carrier designed as a control panel 9.
  • the frame 8 comprises a separate coding element 18, which is spaced apart from the fastening element 16.
  • This assembly coding is further expanded by the further coding element 18.
  • This further coding element 18 is shown in FIG Fig. 4 shown sectional view wedge-shaped.
  • Fig. 5 the frame 8 is shown in a side view.
  • Fastening elements 21 and 22 are also integrally formed on the further side walls 19 and 20, which are also preferably one-piece conical truncated cones.
  • the fastening elements 16, 21 and 22 are formed in the direction of a longitudinal axis B of the frame 8 in different axial locations, so that the already mentioned assembly coding is achieved by this axial offset.
  • the frame 8 can therefore only be installed in a very specific installation position on the control panel 9.
  • Fig. 6 the fastening element 16 is shown in its conical truncated cone geometry in an enlarged perspective view.
  • a front view of the control panel 9 in the area of the hole receptacle 10 is shown.
  • a square geometry of the hole receptacle 10 is formed, which is delimited by the respective walls 11 of the control panel 9. It can be seen that such an already mentioned tab 13 is formed on each of the four delimiting walls 11.
  • a tab 13 is shown in a first perspective view.
  • the lead-in bevel 14 can also be seen, as is the counter-element 15, which is designed as an elongated hole and is therefore in particular not circular, but can be, for example, oval or elliptical or the like.
  • Fig. 9 is the representation according to Fig. 8 shown in a different perspective view, wherein here, as it were, coming from the frame receptacle 10, looking outward and thus being looked at from the hole receptacle 10 in the direction of the tab 13.
  • Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 the respectively installed final state of the frame 8 is shown on the control panel 9, in which case the fastening element 16 is then immersed in the counter element 15 designed as an elongated hole.
  • the control element 6 has a contact flange 23 which engages behind the flange 25 of the frame 8. The remaining area of the control element 6 and thus also the control panel 7 plunge through the frame hole 24 ( Fig. 4 ) through.
