  • Laundry treatment machines usually include a housing made from sheet metal parts in which components and assemblies are housed. Furthermore, a control panel is attached to the front of the housing, with which the user can influence the settings and the operation of the device.
  • the housing usually comprises a front housing part, two opposite side walls, and a housing cover, the housing cover being fastened to the side walls themselves or by means of a support structure and the front housing part being fastened to the side walls and / or to the cover by means of fastening means.
  • a housing for a laundry treatment machine in which the assembly is improved by specially designed fastening means.
  • it is provided for fastening the housing cover to use hook-shaped clamping claws which are guided in the housing cover and whose hook-shaped projection engages under the upper edge of the side part. In this way, an improved fastening of the housing cover is provided.
  • the known housing structures also have the disadvantage that access to the interior of the housing for maintenance or repair work is quite complex.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of improving a housing for a laundry treatment machine or dishwasher or eliminating the disadvantages mentioned.
  • the object is achieved by a housing with the features of claim 1 and by a machine according to claim 13.
  • Advantageous refinements and developments of the invention emerge from the respective dependent claims.
  • the assembly for fastening the housing parts in particular the front housing part with the side parts and the cover, is very simple. Furthermore, a good and secure hold of the parts is ensured, with the housing parts being able to be loosened and removed again very easily and conveniently. Especially for devices in commercial use, frequent maintenance work is necessary due to the harsh conditions of use and the more intensive operation, whereby access to the interior of the device can be made easily, quickly and without laborious work on the housing.
  • the fastening means for fastening the front housing part and / or a hood-shaped control panel to the side parts and for fastening the cover to the side parts, is designed to fix a side wall with the housing cover and with the front housing part in the specified end position.
  • the fastening means is designed as a latching means in order to fix the housing cover with the front housing part in the predetermined end position. This eliminates the need for cumbersome screw connections that require space for assembly when maintenance is required.
  • the fastening means comprises at least one spring which comprises a contact limb and a spring limb, the contact limb being fixed to the cover, the front housing part comprising a latching edge in order to receive the corresponding spring limb and thereby fix the cover to the front housing part .
  • the spring is attached to the cover in such a way that the spring leg extends protruding from the cover and can latch behind a corresponding latching edge on the front-side housing part or the panel part.
  • the spring is attached to a front bevel of the cover and the front housing part comprises a bevel on its rear side with an opening to accommodate the spring, in particular the spring leg, in the assembled state, one edge of the opening forming the locking edge.
  • the spring is designed as a leaf spring for all embodiments, the two legs being at an angle, preferably an acute angle, to one another.
  • the cover, the side parts and the front housing part are made of sheet metal or the parts mentioned comprise at least sheet metal.
  • the parts are made of sheet metal which are provided with the abovementioned folds.
  • Sheet metal is particularly robust and stable, so that self-supporting structures of machines are possible.
  • Housing parts made of sheet metal are particularly suitable and advantageous for machines in commercial use.
  • the spring leg is designed as a bevel with an indentation in order to deform itself against the spring force when it is pushed in along the corresponding latching edge, with the spring leg springing back in the end position so that the indentation comes to rest against the latching edge.
  • the front edge of the lid comprises an outwardly protruding tab, on the surface of which the spring is attached or fastened, with the contact leg resting flat on the surface of the tab and with the Flap is screwed or riveted.
  • the tab is formed as a cut-out partial segment from the front edge, which is very easy to implement and is sufficiently stable.
  • the cover comprises an inwardly directed fold or web with an elongated hole on its two opposite outer sides and the side walls each have a pin with a mushroom head on their upper sides, which engages in the elongated hole when the lid is placed on the side walls.
  • the elongated hole is shaped as a keyhole with a widened opening cross-section and an adjoining narrower channel, so that the cover can be placed at a distance from the front housing part and then moved in the direction of the front housing part, with the mushroom head being pushed through the widened opening cross-section passes through and moves behind the channel when moving.
  • the keyhole and the Corresponding pins with their mushroom heads are arranged or positioned in such a way that when the cover is placed, the spring or the spring leg is spaced apart from the rear edge of the front housing part and that the spring leg enters the opening of the fold of the front housing part when it is moved in the direction of the front housing part front housing part protrudes. In this way, when the cover is put on and the shift towards the front housing part, both the fixation on the side parts and the latching with the front housing part are effected.
  • the area of the elongated hole () rises obliquely upwards or is designed to be thickened upwards in order to bring about a rubbing or pressure-acting contact with the mushroom head.
  • a force is applied to the cover, which presses it in the direction of the upper edges of the side walls. This ensures a tight fit and a small gap between the cover and the side walls.
  • the spring and / or the elongated hole is dimensioned so that in the end position a gap remains between the front edge of the cover and the rear edge of the front housing part, through which the spring leg from the outside, preferably from the top of the housing, is accessible.
  • a flat tool such as a spatula or a blade
  • the spring leg can be pushed out of the latching position through the gap, so that a displacement of the cover into the open position is simplified.
  • the invention also relates to a laundry treatment machine or dishwasher with a housing according to one of the aforementioned embodiments.
  • a laundry treatment machine 10 which comprises a housing 1 with a front wall 2, a cover 4 and two opposite side parts or side walls 3.
  • the machine further comprises an operating panel 5 in which operating elements and display elements 25 are arranged accessible to the user.
  • the control panel 5 further comprises a control part (not shown) which is configured for the execution of the set programs or other actions in the laundry treatment machine.
  • the embodiment shown is the hood-shaped control panel 5 as a front housing part executed.
  • the housing 1 can contain further components, such as a rear wall or base part (both not shown).
  • Fig. 2 three housing parts are shown in the corner area in the fixed state.
  • the housing cover 4 is fastened to the side wall 3, the hood-shaped front housing part 5 also being fastened to this composite.
  • a spring 30 is provided as a fastening means, which is attached to a fold 41 of the cover 4.
  • a tab 42 is arranged from the fold 41, on which the contact leg 31 of the spring 30 rests and is fastened to the tab 42 by means of a rivet 32.
  • the tab 42 protrudes at an angle from the front fold 41, so that the spring 30 protrudes at the front of the fold 41 or extends outward from the fold 41.
  • the spring 30 protrudes through a passage 52 in the rear bevel or rear wall 51 of the hood-shaped panel 5.
  • the spring leg 33 is provided with a step-shaped bend 34, which causes the latching connection with the latching edge 53 on the bevel 51 of the hood-shaped panel 5.
  • the step-shaped bend 34 thus forms the barb which is locked behind the locking edge 53.
  • the cover 4 has on its underside, that is, directed towards the upper edges of the side walls, in each case a bevel 21 or web with an elongated hole 44, which is designed as a keyhole with an inlet opening 45 and a slot area 46.
  • a pin 60 with a mushroom head 61 is attached to the upper edge of the side wall 2 in such a way that the pin 60 protrudes through the elongated hole 44 or through the slot area 46, the mushroom head 61 partially covering the slot area 46 and thereby the cover 4 the side wall 2 fixed.
  • the fastening described is provided for both sides of the housing 1.
  • the keyhole 44 and the associated pin 60 with the mushroom head 61 are dimensioned so that when the cover 4 is placed on the lower part or the side walls 2, the mushroom head 61 passes through the entrance opening.
  • the cover 4 is moved to the front part 5, the elongated hole 44 is moved such that the slot 46 slides under the mushroom head 61 so that the mushroom head 61 prevents the pin 60 from emerging from the slot 46.
  • the cover 4 is thus held on the side wall 2 or the lower housing chassis.
  • the web 21 has a thickening 47 in the area of the slot 46 in order to achieve a play-free contact of the mushroom head 61 on the web 21 and thus a tight fit of the cover 4.
  • the front, hood-shaped panel part 5 is screwed or riveted to the side walls 2.
  • Fig. 3 shows the cover 4 taken by itself in a perspective view from above.
  • the cover 4 is provided with the bevel 41 on the front side.
  • springs 30 are attached as fastening elements, which are used for detachable connection to the front housing part 2, 5 ( Fig. 1 ) serve.
  • an inwardly directed bevel 48 is present, each of which provides a web parallel to the surface.
  • an elongated hole 44 is arranged, which is shaped as a keyhole and for connection to a corresponding pin 60 ( Fig. 2 ) on the lower part of the housing.
  • the keyhole 44 and the associated pin 60 with the mushroom head 61 are dimensioned such that when the cover 4 is placed on the lower part or the side walls 2, the mushroom head 61 passes through the inlet opening 45.
  • the cover 4 is moved to the front part 5, the elongated hole 44 is moved such that the slot 46 slides under the mushroom head 61, so that the mushroom head 61 prevents the pin from emerging from the slot 46. the cover 4 is thus held on the side wall 2 or the lower housing chassis.
  • Fig. 4 shows the cover 4 with the fastening means 40 in a detailed sectional view.
  • the cover 4, the hood-shaped front part 5 and the side walls are preferably made of sheet metal.
  • the cover 4 comprises an outwardly angled tab 42 on its front bevel 41.
  • the tab 42 is cut out of the sheet metal material of the front bevel 41 and angled outwards so that no further fastening means are required to fasten the tab 42.
  • the leg spring 30, shaped as an angle, is attached to the upper flat side of the bracket 42, this resting flat on the bracket with the contact leg 31 and being fastened to it with the rivet 32.
