Definitions
- the invention relates to a driver for a washing machine and a washing machine with at least one driver.
- pods i.e. capsules or sleeves
- Pods are small bags made of film filled with a specific amount of liquid detergent, which become water-soluble after a defined period of time.
- the pods are also known as caps, duo caps or detergent tabs.
- the shapes of this single unit can (SUD - amount of detergent that can be dosed for exactly one laundry) vary from liquid detergent encapsulated in foil to components of liquid detergent encapsulated separately in foil to liquid detergent and powder detergent encapsulated separately in foil.
- the detergents develop their effect after dissolving the film and, if necessary, mixing components or after time-delayed dissolution of detergent components and/or powder detergent directly in the wetted laundry.
- powder detergent it can be prevented that undissolved detergent comes into contact with partially moistened laundry, which can lead to discoloration.
- Another advantage is the prevention of detergent loss in the washing machine's waterways.
- a driver of a washing machine for dosing detergent and care products is already known from the prior art. Such a use is, for example, in the WO 2007/063368 A1 disclosed.
- the driver is hollow and its entire interior is divided into two chambers, one chamber for holding detergent and one chamber for holding care products. At the bottom of the driver there are openings on the side walls through which the detergent and the care product can exit the driver. In addition, an opening is provided in each chamber in the top of the driver, which can be closed with a flap and through which detergent and care products can be introduced into the corresponding chamber of the driver.
- a mass mounted on a spring can be provided on the bottom of the driver.
- the chamber in which an opening is provided in the top and further openings are provided on the side walls in the lower region, extends essentially over the entire height of the driver.
- a pod can float if it can be inserted via the top opening. This means that sufficient wetting of the pod with water, which is necessary to dissolve the film, cannot be guaranteed, especially when the water level is low.
- the chamber which is closed by a partition and a mass, no water can enter the chamber and a pod inserted therein cannot therefore be dissolved.
- drivers as a holding device for detergents is known from the prior art.
- dispensers for solid or semi-solid care products in tumble dryers are known from the prior art. Such a use is, for example, in the US 4,004,685 A disclosed.
- the dispenser is placed directly into the drum of the tumble dryer or attached to a wall of the drum.
- some of the care product is transferred to the fabric as the heat of the dryer causes the care product to soften and spread over the surface of the fabric. Only a small portion of the care product is released from the dispenser, meaning it can be used as a long-lasting reservoir for several batches of fabric.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to create a solution that allows reliable use of pods.
- the solution is intended to ensure that the laundry treatment agent contained in the pod is reliably brought into contact with the laundry during the washing process.
- this object is achieved by a driver for a washing machine, which has at least one receiving device for receiving laundry treatment agents.
- the driver is characterized in that the receiving device has a base body, the base body forms at least part of a receiving space for at least one disposable dosage capsule, the base body has a height that is less than the height of the driver, the base body is permeable to water and at least part of the Recording device is movably attached to the driver.
- a driver is a component of a washing machine that projects inwards from the inner circumference of the washing drum.
- several drivers are provided on the washing drum, distributed over the circumference of the washing drum.
- the driver(s) lifts the laundry in the washing drum from the inner circumference of the washing drum and thereby mixes it.
- the driver can be attached to the washing drum or can be made in one piece with the washing drum.
- the receiving device has a base body.
- the base body forms at least part of a receiving space for at least one disposable dosage capsule.
- the single-dose capsule is referred to below as a pod.
- the base body can also referred to as a pod compartment.
- the pod can contain detergent in liquid form or in powder form. Additionally or alternatively, care products in liquid form or powder form can also be included in the pod.
- the receiving space which is at least partially formed by the base body, therefore has a size that corresponds at least to the size of a pod, for example 3x3x2cm.
- the height of the base body is less than the height of the driver.
- the length of the base body is also less than the length of the driver.
- Directional information such as above and below refers, unless otherwise stated, to a driver mounted on a washing drum of a front-loading washing machine in the state in which the driver is at the lowest point of the washing drum.
- the height of the driver is the dimension of the driver from the level at which it is attached to the washing drum to the point that is the greatest distance from this level.
- the length of the driver is the dimension of the driver when installed in the depth direction of the washing drum.
- the position in which the disposable dosage capsule lies in the driver can be chosen so that water can reach it even when the water level is low.
- a low height of the base body can also prevent the pod from floating in the base body.
- the base body is permeable to water.
- a perforation i.e. a large number of openings, can be made in the walls of the base body.
- the walls of the base body consist, for example, of grids.
- the base body is perforated in particular for the purpose so that during the network phase, water can initially flow in through these holes or openings in order to dissolve the film of the pod for the purpose of dispensing detergent, and then the dissolved detergent can flow into the washing liquor.
- At least part of the receiving device is movably attached to the driver.
- a part of the receiving device By movably attaching a part of the receiving device, an opening through which the disposable dosage capsule(s) can be introduced into the base body can be exposed and the loading of the receiving device with the pod(s) can be made possible.
- a receiving space is formed in the driver, which has a relatively small size, in particular adapted to one or more pods, the base body, which at least partially forms this receiving space, is water-permeable and the receiving device is at least partially movably attached to the driver, a A number of advantages can be achieved.
- the driver according to the invention can be used to prevent the pod from floating and thus ensure that the pod's film dissolves.
- the dissolution of the film is also ensured by the fact that the base body can be provided at a suitable position in the driver due to its low height, for example near the bottom of the driver, where there is a sufficient amount of water to dissolve the or of the pods is available.
- the base body is preferably deep, that is to say at a short distance from the bottom of the driver, to which it is attached to the washing drum, arranged in the driver below the minimum water level in the washing drum, for example 3cm, and closed at the top in such a way that a inserted pod does not float to ensure sufficient wetting.
- the movable part of the receiving device represents the base body and/or a cover for the base body.
- a cover for the base body or the base body itself can be moved relative to the driver. When the cover moves away from the driver, the interior of the base body can be made accessible. Even when the base body moves relative to the driver, an opening in the base body can be made accessible to the user.
- the movable part of the receiving device is pivotally mounted on the driver.
- the cover of the base body is pivotably mounted.
- the base body can be firmly accommodated in the driver, that is, it can be arranged in a fixed manner in the driver.
- the receiving space formed at least partially in the base body can be made accessible by opening the cover.
- the base body can also be pivotally mounted on the driver. This allows the base body to be pivoted out of the driver.
- the movable part of the receiving device is slidably mounted on the driver.
- the base body is preferably slidably attached to the driver.
- the cover is attached to the base body and can therefore be moved with the base body relative to the driver.
- the base body with the cover can be designed in the form of a drawer.
- the movable part of the receiving device is rotatably mounted on the driver.
- the base body is preferably mounted rotatably relative to the driver.
- the base body therefore preferably has a cylindrical, in particular hollow cylindrical, shape.
- the cover is preferably also rotatable.
- the cover is preferably firmly connected to the base body and can, for example, have a thread on the outer circumference. Thanks to a rotatable bearing, the base body can be equipped with one or more pods and screwed into the driver even in a position of the driver in the washing drum that does not correspond to the lowest point of the washing drum. This can prevent the pod from falling out.
- the receiving device is arranged in an end face of the driver.
- a receiving device that lies at least partially on the front side is referred to as being arranged on the front side.
- the cover of the receiving device is preferably located in the front side.
- the longitudinal end of the longitudinally extending driver is referred to as the front side of the driver. There is one end face of the driver when the filling opening is installed facing the washing machine, the receiving device, which is arranged on the front side, is easily accessible to the user.
- the receiving device is arranged on a side wall of the driver.
- a receiving device that lies at least partially in the side wall is referred to as being arranged on the side wall.
- the cover of the receiving device is preferably located in the side wall.
- the driver consists of a driver base and a driver body.
- the driver body represents the movable part of the driver.
- the driver body is pivotally connected to the driver base, in particular via a hinge. This allows the driver to be opened.
- Part of the interior of the driver base forms at least part of the base body and thus the receiving space for the disposable dosage capsule.
- a recess can be formed in the driver base for this purpose. Because the upper part of the driver, which represents the driver body, can be pivoted relative to the driver base, the driver can be opened up and the base body inside the driver base can be made accessible.
- the receiving device comprises at least one closure, via which the movable part of the receiving device is locked on the driver.
- the closure can represent a locking element, a thread and/or a bayonet closure.
- the movable part is locked via the closure in the position in which the base body lies in the driver and is preferably covered by a cover.
- the receiving device has at least one opening element for opening the at least one disposable dosage capsule, which is directed into the interior of the receiving space of the receiving device.
- the opening element can, for example, represent a thorn, a needle, a pin or a blade. This makes it possible to open the pod(s) in the recording room and thus ensure that the laundry treatment agent escapes before the film dissolves.
- the invention relates to a washing machine with at least one driver which is arranged in a washing drum of the washing machine.
- the washing machine is characterized in that at least one driver is a driver according to the invention.
- the washing machine is preferably a front loader, that is, has a filling opening on the front through which laundry can be introduced into the washing drum, the axis of which is horizontal.
- the at least one driver extends horizontally and is arranged on the inside of the washing drum.
- the driver is preferably connected to the washing drum, that is to say attached to it.
- several drivers of the washing machine each represent a driver according to the invention.
- several drivers each have a receiving device.
- This design ensures that the driver is accessible to the user even when laundry has already been placed in the washing drum.
- at least one receiving device with a base body which can also be referred to as a pod compartment, is implemented in all drivers of a washing drum, into which at least one pod fits in terms of size and into which the user can sit during normal use Depending on the dosage, place one or more pods in during the loading process.
- the receiving device for the pod or pods By implementing the receiving device for the pod or pods in the driver, it is located in a location where the receiving device and in particular the pod or pods are permanently wetted with water for the time necessary to dissolve the film, usually during the wetting phase which can then release the detergent released into the washing liquor.
- the pod compartment can either be closed with a cover.
- the pod compartment can be opened and closed with a snap-in flap.
- the pod compartment can be used with a cover as a separate one be designed as a removable and lockable chamber.
- the joint between the flap and the necessary opening in the driver body must be specially designed in order to prevent laundry from becoming trapped, thread pulling and other damage to laundry during washing; for example by means of soft sealing lips or rubber casings, which are squeezed when the flap is closed to fill the joint and which can be attached directly to the flap using a two-component injection molding process, for example.
- the foldable driver body is rotatably attached via hinges to a driver base that is fixed to the drum shell and locked in the closed operating position, for example by means of a snap lock.
- the pod compartment is located in the driver base and is only accessible when the driver body is folded away. This avoids an opening in the driver body and thus this additional joint compared to the other design variants.
- the driver body forms an assembly gap, for example a maximum of 0.3 mm, radially to the drum shell. The risk of damage to the laundry is therefore no higher than with normal carriers.
- the closure of the cover, for example the flap, and the base body, in particular the chamber can be designed, for example, as a snap lock or as a bayonet lock.
- the chamber must be cylindrical in order to be able to carry out the insertion and rotation movement.
- they are advantageously designed in such a way that the laundry pressure from the outside acts in the closing direction, i.e. a so-called self-help principle is applied.
- the flap or chamber can then advantageously be opened from the inside using a spring.
- the closure can be actuated, for example, as a push button with a deep stroke that can only be carried out by the user's finger or to carry out a rotary movement through a slot into which a coin can advantageously be inserted as a lever.
- the push button can be used directly be arranged on the front side of the driver and act on the closure using a linkage.
- the certainty that the liquid detergent is guaranteed and released regardless of the solubility of the pod film can be increased. This happens, for example, through sharp thorns.
- the pod when closing a driver body pivotably connected to a driver base, the pod can be automatically perforated. Analogously, the perforation can also take place when the cover, which is designed as a flap, is closed or when the base body is pushed into the driver.
- liquid or powder detergents can also be filled into the base body if it is large enough and can be easily reached with a dosing aid or measuring cup. However, optimized stain removal by delaying the application of the detergent components then has to be avoided.
