(実施の形態1)
以下、図1~図7を用いて、実施の形態1を説明する。
(Embodiment 1)
Hereinafter, the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 7.

[1-1-1.洗濯機の構成]
図1に示すように、洗濯機10は、水槽13が、有底円筒型に形成されており、サスペンション(図示せず)により筐体11に防振支持されている。洗濯槽15は、同じく有底円筒型に形成されており、水槽13の内部に回転自在に配設されている。また、洗濯槽15は、側壁に多数の通水孔16が形成されており、脱水槽として兼用される。洗濯槽15の上部には流体バランサ17が配設されており、洗濯槽15内の衣類の偏りによって生じる水槽13の異常振動を抑制する。
[1-1-1. Washing machine configuration]
As shown in FIG. 1, in the washing machine 10, the water tank 13 is formed in a bottomed cylindrical shape, and is vibration-proof supported by the housing 11 by a suspension (not shown). The washing tub 15 is also formed in a bottomed cylindrical shape, and is rotatably arranged inside the water tub 13. Further, the washing tub 15 has a large number of water passage holes 16 formed on the side wall thereof, and is also used as a dehydration tub. A fluid balancer 17 is disposed above the washing tub 15 to suppress abnormal vibration of the water tub 13 caused by the bias of clothes in the washing tub 15.

パルセータ18は、洗濯槽15の中央底部に回転自在に配設されている。回転軸14は、洗濯槽15の底面を貫通するように配置されており、上端にパルセータ18が取り付けられ、下端に伝達機構19が取り付けられている。回転軸14は、中空で2軸構造になっており、洗濯槽15又はパルセータ18をそれぞれ別々に回転させることができる。伝達機構19の内部には、減速ギア(図示せず)と、クラッチ(図示せず)と、ブレーキ(図示せず)が内蔵されている。モータ20は、水槽13の底部に取り付けられ、ベルト23により伝達機構19と架橋されている。モータ20の回転駆動力は、モータ側プーリ21、ベルト23、伝達機構19の有するメカ側プーリ22、の順に伝達され、回転軸14を回転させる。 The pulsator 18 is rotatably arranged at the central bottom of the washing tub 15. The rotating shaft 14 is arranged so as to penetrate the bottom surface of the washing tub 15, and a pulsator 18 is attached to the upper end and a transmission mechanism 19 is attached to the lower end. The rotating shaft 14 is hollow and has a biaxial structure, and the washing tub 15 or the pulsator 18 can be rotated separately. A reduction gear (not shown), a clutch (not shown), and a brake (not shown) are built in the transmission mechanism 19. The motor 20 is attached to the bottom of the water tank 13 and is bridged with the transmission mechanism 19 by a belt 23. The rotational driving force of the motor 20 is transmitted in the order of the motor side pulley 21, the belt 23, and the mechanical side pulley 22 of the transmission mechanism 19, to rotate the rotary shaft 14.

筐体11は、上部に上部枠体24を有している。上部枠体24は、開口である衣類投入口24aが形成されており、衣類投入口24aは、蓋体25により開閉自在に覆われている。使用者は、蓋体25を上方に持ち上げて開状態にすることで、衣類投入口24aを介して洗濯槽15の内部へ衣類を出し入れできる。 The housing 11 has an upper frame body 24 at the upper part. The upper frame body 24 is formed with a clothing inlet 24a which is an opening, and the clothing inlet 24a is covered with a lid 25 so as to be openable and closable. By lifting the lid 25 upward to open it, the user can put clothes in and out of the washing tub 15 through the clothes inlet 24a.

[1-1-2.蓋体周囲の構成]
以下、後述するダンパ41を有さない洗濯機10Aについて説明する。
[1-1-2. Ambient structure around the lid]
Hereinafter, the washing machine 10A without the damper 41, which will be described later, will be described.

図2に示すように、蓋体25は、ガラス製の蓋板26と、使用者が蓋体25を開閉する際に把持する把持部27と、蓋回転軸29を介して蓋体25を上部枠体24に支持する蓋回転軸部品28と、を備えている。把持部27は、接着剤により蓋板26の手前側に固定されており、蓋回転軸部品28は、接着用の両面テープ等により蓋板26の背面側に固定されている。 As shown in FIG. 2, the lid 25 has a glass lid plate 26, a grip portion 27 that the user grips when opening and closing the lid 25, and an upper portion of the lid 25 via a lid rotation shaft 29. A lid rotating shaft component 28 that supports the frame body 24 is provided. The grip portion 27 is fixed to the front side of the lid plate 26 with an adhesive, and the lid rotation shaft component 28 is fixed to the back surface side of the lid plate 26 with double-sided tape for adhesion or the like.

蓋回転軸29は、蓋回転軸部品28に貫通して固定されており、上部枠体24に形成された軸受穴30に回動自在に支持されている。これにより、蓋体25は、上部枠体24に対して開閉自在に支持される。 The lid rotating shaft 29 penetrates and is fixed to the lid rotating shaft component 28, and is rotatably supported by a bearing hole 30 formed in the upper frame body 24. As a result, the lid body 25 is supported so as to be openable and closable with respect to the upper frame body 24.

上部枠体24には、蓋回転軸部品28の近傍において上方に開口する軸受空間31が設けられており、軸受空間31は、後述するダンパ軸受40を挿入可能に形成されている。 The upper frame body 24 is provided with a bearing space 31 that opens upward in the vicinity of the lid rotating shaft component 28, and the bearing space 31 is formed so that a damper bearing 40 described later can be inserted.

なお、詳細は後述するが、蓋回転軸部品28の下端には、蓋板26が開かれた状態で、蓋板26の下方側に向けて延伸し、軸受空間31に挿入される閉塞部32が設けられている。 Although details will be described later, a closed portion 32 that extends toward the lower side of the lid plate 26 with the lid plate 26 open at the lower end of the lid rotating shaft component 28 and is inserted into the bearing space 31. Is provided.

[1-1-3.軸受空間周囲の構成]
図3(a)に示すように、蓋体25を開いた際、蓋体25は、直角より後方に倒れた状態で静止している。この時、図3(b)に示すように、閉塞部32が、軸受空間31の開
口を下方から覆っている。
[1-1-3. Bearing space ambient construction]
As shown in FIG. 3A, when the lid 25 is opened, the lid 25 is stationary in a state of being tilted backward from a right angle. At this time, as shown in FIG. 3B, the closing portion 32 covers the opening of the bearing space 31 from below.

図4(a)に示すように、閉塞部32は、蓋体25が閉まった状態において背面側に位置し、図4(b)に示すように、蓋体25が開いた状態において軸受空間31の前側を閉塞する。閉塞部32の側面には当接部33が設けられている。当接部33は、蓋体25を開く際、軸受空間31の前側にある壁面34と当接して蓋体25を開いた状態で静止させる。 As shown in FIG. 4A, the closing portion 32 is located on the back side when the lid 25 is closed, and as shown in FIG. 4B, the bearing space 31 is located when the lid 25 is open. Block the front side of the. A contact portion 33 is provided on the side surface of the closed portion 32. When the lid 25 is opened, the contact portion 33 comes into contact with the wall surface 34 on the front side of the bearing space 31 and makes the lid 25 stand still in an open state.

以上の構成について、蓋体25を開く際の動作を説明する。 The operation when the lid 25 is opened will be described with respect to the above configuration.

蓋体25が閉まった状態では、蓋板26が軸受空間31の上方を覆っているため、軸受空間31に使用者の指が入り込むことはない。 When the lid 25 is closed, the lid plate 26 covers the upper part of the bearing space 31, so that the user's finger does not enter the bearing space 31.

使用者が把持部27を把持して蓋体25を開く際、蓋体25が開くに従って、軸受空間31の前側上方が徐々に開いていく。これに伴い、閉塞部32は、軸受空間31における前方下部に移動し、当接部33が壁面34に当接することで静止する。蓋体25が開いた状態においても、閉塞部32が軸受空間31の前側上方を覆っているため、使用者が指を挟み込むことはない。 When the user grips the grip portion 27 and opens the lid 25, the upper front side of the bearing space 31 gradually opens as the lid 25 opens. Along with this, the closed portion 32 moves to the lower front part in the bearing space 31, and the contact portion 33 comes into contact with the wall surface 34 to stand still. Even when the lid 25 is open, the closing portion 32 covers the front upper side of the bearing space 31, so that the user does not pinch the finger.

蓋体25の開閉動作を途中で静止させた場合、軸受空間31の上方は一時的に開放された状態となり、使用者の指が入り込む虞が生じる。しかし、本実施の形態における当接部33は、軸受空間31の浅い位置に指が入ってしまったとしても壁面34との間で指を挟むことがないように、蓋体25の開動作に伴って、閉塞部32が指を押し上げて、軸受空間31から指を出し、その後、軸受空間31の前方下部で壁面34と当接するように配置されている。 When the opening / closing operation of the lid 25 is stopped in the middle, the upper part of the bearing space 31 is temporarily opened, and there is a risk that the user's finger may enter. However, the contact portion 33 in the present embodiment opens the lid 25 so that the finger does not get caught between the contact portion 33 and the wall surface 34 even if the finger enters the shallow position of the bearing space 31. Along with this, the closing portion 32 pushes up the finger, ejects the finger from the bearing space 31, and is then arranged so as to come into contact with the wall surface 34 at the lower front portion of the bearing space 31.

[1-1-4.ダンパ軸受を用いた場合の構成]
本実施の形態における洗濯機10は、蓋体が閉まる動きを減衰するダンパ機構を取り付け可能に構成されている。
[1-1-4. Configuration when using damper bearings]
The washing machine 10 in the present embodiment is configured to be able to attach a damper mechanism that attenuates the movement of closing the lid.

以下、洗濯機10Aの蓋回転軸部品28の代わりにダンパ41を取り付けた洗濯機10Bについて説明する。なお、洗濯機10Bと同一の構成については、同一符号を付し、説明を省略する。 Hereinafter, the washing machine 10B to which the damper 41 is attached instead of the lid rotating shaft component 28 of the washing machine 10A will be described. The same components as those of the washing machine 10B are designated by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof will be omitted.

図5に示すように、洗濯機10Bは、蓋体25の代わりにダンパ対応蓋体45を備えている。ダンパ対応蓋体45は、蓋体25と同様に一枚蓋として構成されており、衣類投入口24aを開閉自在に覆っている。 As shown in FIG. 5, the washing machine 10B includes a damper-compatible lid 45 instead of the lid 25. The damper-compatible lid 45 is configured as a single lid like the lid 25, and covers the clothes inlet 24a so as to be openable and closable.

ダンパ対応蓋体45の下面後部には、ダンパ41を収容するダンパ収容部46が形成されたダンパ収容体48が、接着用の両面テープ等により蓋板26の背面側に固定されている。ダンパ収容部46は、ダンパ41を収容した状態で、ダンパ収容部カバー46aにより開口部分を覆われている。 A damper accommodating body 48 having a damper accommodating portion 46 for accommodating the damper 41 is fixed to the back surface side of the lid plate 26 with a double-sided adhesive tape or the like on the lower rear portion of the damper corresponding lid 45. The damper accommodating portion 46 is covered with an opening portion by the damper accommodating portion cover 46a in a state where the damper 41 is accommodated.

図6に示すように、ダンパ41は、一端がダンパ軸受40に支持されるダンパ軸41aとして形成され、他端がダンパ収容部46に固定されるダンパ固定部41bとして形成されている。 As shown in FIG. 6, one end of the damper 41 is formed as a damper shaft 41a supported by the damper bearing 40, and the other end is formed as a damper fixing portion 41b fixed to the damper accommodating portion 46.

ダンパ41を備えた洗濯機10Bは、軸受穴30を利用する代わりに、ダンパ軸受40を取り付ける必要がある。図6及び図7に示すように、ダンパ軸受40は、内側の側面にダンパ軸穴40aが設けられている。ダンパ軸穴40aは、非円形に形成されており、ダ
ンパ軸41aと係合してダンパ軸41aから受ける回転モーメントを打ち消すよう構成されている。ダンパ軸受40の下部には、後方に向かって水平に延伸するダンパ軸受台座40bが設けられており、ダンパ軸受台座40bには、ネジ孔40cが設けられており、そのネジ孔40cを介して、軸受空間31の底面にネジ42により固定されている。これらの構成により、ダンパ軸受40は、蓋体が閉まる動きを減衰させる際にダンパ41が発生させる力に耐えうるように構成されている。
In the washing machine 10B provided with the damper 41, it is necessary to attach the damper bearing 40 instead of using the bearing hole 30. As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the damper bearing 40 is provided with a damper shaft hole 40a on the inner side surface. The damper shaft hole 40a is formed in a non-circular shape, and is configured to engage with the damper shaft 41a to cancel the rotational moment received from the damper shaft 41a. A damper bearing pedestal 40b extending horizontally toward the rear is provided in the lower portion of the damper bearing 40, and a screw hole 40c is provided in the damper bearing pedestal 40b through the screw hole 40c. It is fixed to the bottom surface of the bearing space 31 by a screw 42. With these configurations, the damper bearing 40 is configured to withstand the force generated by the damper 41 when the movement of closing the lid is damped.

なお、洗濯機10Bにおいては、軸受空間31はダンパ軸受40により上方を塞がれており、軸受空間31とダンパ軸受40との間には使用者の指が入る隙間が存在しない。 In the washing machine 10B, the bearing space 31 is closed upward by the damper bearing 40, and there is no gap between the bearing space 31 and the damper bearing 40 for the user's finger to enter.

このように、本実施の形態における軸受空間31は、蓋回転軸29及びダンパ軸受40の両方を取り付けることができるように構成されている。従って、ダンパ機構を備える洗濯機10Bと、ダンパ機構を備えない洗濯機10Aの両方において、同じ上部枠体24を適用できるため、製造におけるコストを低減できる。 As described above, the bearing space 31 in the present embodiment is configured so that both the lid rotating shaft 29 and the damper bearing 40 can be attached. Therefore, since the same upper frame body 24 can be applied to both the washing machine 10B provided with the damper mechanism and the washing machine 10A not provided with the damper mechanism, the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

[1-2.効果等]
以上のように、実施の形態1において、洗濯機10Aは、筐体11と、筐体11の上部として配設された上部枠体24と、内部に衣類を投入できるように上部枠体24に形成された衣類投入口24aと、衣類投入口24aを開閉自在に覆う蓋体25と、を備え、蓋体25は、蓋板26と、蓋板26の後部に固定された蓋回転軸部品28と、蓋回転軸部品28を回転可能に支持する蓋回転軸29と、を含み、上部枠体24の後方上部には上方に開口する軸受空間31が形成され、蓋回転軸部品28の下部には、蓋体25が開いた状態において軸受空間31を塞ぐ閉塞部32が形成されている。
[1-2. Effect, etc.]
As described above, in the first embodiment, the washing machine 10A is attached to the housing 11, the upper frame body 24 arranged as the upper part of the housing 11, and the upper frame body 24 so that clothes can be put inside. The formed clothing inlet 24a and the lid 25 that covers the clothing inlet 24a so as to be openable and closable are provided. A bearing space 31 that opens upward is formed in the upper rear portion of the upper frame body 24, including a lid rotating shaft 29 that rotatably supports the lid rotating shaft component 28, and is formed in the lower portion of the lid rotating shaft component 28. Is formed with a closed portion 32 that closes the bearing space 31 in a state where the lid 25 is open.

これにより、閉塞部32は、蓋体25が開いた状態において軸受空間31を塞ぎ、軸受空間31に手が挿入されることを抑制する。 As a result, the closing portion 32 closes the bearing space 31 in a state where the lid 25 is open, and suppresses the insertion of a hand into the bearing space 31.

そのため、蓋体25を開ける際に、軸受空間31の内壁と蓋回転軸部品28との間に手を挟むことを抑制できる。 Therefore, when the lid 25 is opened, it is possible to prevent the hand from being pinched between the inner wall of the bearing space 31 and the lid rotating shaft component 28.

本実施の形態のように、洗濯機10Aの閉塞部32は、蓋体25が開いた状態において、前面側下部に凸となるように形成され軸受空間31の内壁と当接する当接部33が設けられてもよい。 As in the present embodiment, the closed portion 32 of the washing machine 10A is formed so as to be convex on the lower portion on the front side when the lid 25 is open, and the contact portion 33 that abuts on the inner wall of the bearing space 31 is provided. It may be provided.

これにより、閉塞部32は、下方において軸受空間31の内壁と当接し、軸受空間31の開口近傍では軸受空間31の内壁と当接しない。 As a result, the closed portion 32 abuts on the inner wall of the bearing space 31 below, and does not abut on the inner wall of the bearing space 31 in the vicinity of the opening of the bearing space 31.

そのため、蓋体25を開ける際に、軸受空間31の浅い位置に手を入れた場合には、軸受空間31の内壁と蓋回転軸部品28との間に手を挟むことはない。 Therefore, when the lid 25 is opened, if a hand is put in a shallow position of the bearing space 31, the hand is not caught between the inner wall of the bearing space 31 and the lid rotating shaft component 28.

本実施の形態のように、洗濯機10Bは、筐体11と、筐体11の上部として配設された上部枠体24と、内部に衣類を投入できるように上部枠体24に形成された衣類投入口24aと、衣類投入口24aを開閉自在に覆うダンパ対応蓋体45と、を備え、ダンパ対応蓋体45は、蓋板26と、ダンパ対応蓋体45が閉まる動きを減衰するダンパ41を収容するダンパ収容部46を有し蓋板26の後部に固定されたダンパ収容体48と、を含み、上部枠体24の後方上部には上方に開口する軸受空間31が形成され、軸受空間31には、ダンパ41を取り付けるダンパ軸受40が挿入固定されている。 As in the present embodiment, the washing machine 10B is formed in the housing 11, the upper frame body 24 arranged as the upper part of the housing 11, and the upper frame body 24 so that clothes can be put inside. A damper-compatible lid 45 for opening and closing the clothes input port 24a and a damper-compatible lid 45 that can be opened and closed is provided. The damper-compatible lid 45 includes a lid plate 26 and a damper 41 that attenuates the closing movement of the damper-compatible lid 45. A damper accommodating body 48 having a damper accommodating portion 46 and fixed to the rear portion of the lid plate 26 is included, and a bearing space 31 opening upward is formed in the rear upper portion of the upper frame body 24 to form a bearing space. A damper bearing 40 for attaching the damper 41 is inserted and fixed to the 31.

これにより、軸受空間31は、蓋体が閉まる動きを減衰させる際にダンパ41が発生させる力に耐えうるように構成されたダンパ軸受40を配設可能に構成されている。 As a result, the bearing space 31 is configured so that the damper bearing 40 configured to withstand the force generated by the damper 41 when the movement of closing the lid is damped can be arranged.

そのため、使用者の操作性を向上させるとともに、軸受空間31に手が入り込むことはない。 Therefore, the operability of the user is improved, and the bearing space 31 is not accessible.

洗濯機10の洗濯機10Aと洗濯機10Bの上部枠体24は、同一部品としてもよい。 The washing machine 10A of the washing machine 10 and the upper frame body 24 of the washing machine 10B may be the same parts.

これにより、上部枠体24は、ダンパ機構を備えない洗濯機10Aと、ダンパ機構を備える洗濯機10Bとで、同一形状としている。 As a result, the upper frame body 24 has the same shape as the washing machine 10A having no damper mechanism and the washing machine 10B having a damper mechanism.

そのため、上部枠体24は、ダンパ機構を備えない洗濯機10Aと、ダンパ機構を備える洗濯機10Bとで、部品を共通化でき、コストを低減できる。 Therefore, the parts of the upper frame body 24 can be shared between the washing machine 10A not provided with the damper mechanism and the washing machine 10B provided with the damper mechanism, and the cost can be reduced.

以上のように、本出願において開示する技術の例示として、実施の形態1を説明した。しかしながら、本開示における技術は、これに限定されない。
(Other embodiments)
As described above, the first embodiment has been described as an example of the technique disclosed in the present application. However, the techniques in this disclosure are not limited to this.

そこで、以下、他の実施の形態を例示する。 Therefore, other embodiments will be exemplified below.

実施の形態1では、蓋回転軸部品を回転可能に支持する軸の一例として、蓋回転軸部品28とは別部品である蓋回転軸29を説明した。軸は、蓋回転軸部品を回転可能に支持すればよいので、別部品に限定されない。例えば、軸は、蓋回転軸部品の一部として形成されてもよいし、トップカバーの一部として形成されてもよい。 In the first embodiment, as an example of a shaft that rotatably supports the lid rotating shaft component, the lid rotating shaft 29, which is a separate component from the lid rotating shaft component 28, has been described. The shaft is not limited to another part as long as it rotatably supports the lid rotating shaft part. For example, the shaft may be formed as part of a lid rotating shaft component or as part of a top cover.

実施の形態1では、蓋体として、一枚の蓋板26で構成された蓋体25を説明した。蓋体は、衣類投入口を開閉自在に覆えばよいので、一枚の蓋板により構成された蓋体に限定されない。例えば、蓋体は、折り畳み可能な二つ折り蓋であってもよい。 In the first embodiment, as the lid body, the lid body 25 composed of one lid plate 26 has been described. The lid is not limited to a lid made up of a single lid plate, as it suffices to cover the clothes slot so that it can be opened and closed. For example, the lid may be a foldable bi-fold lid.

本開示は、上面を開閉自在に覆う蓋体を備えた洗濯機に適用可能である。具体的には、縦型洗濯機や二槽式洗濯機に対して本開示は適用可能である。 The present disclosure is applicable to a washing machine provided with a lid that can open and close the upper surface. Specifically, the present disclosure is applicable to a vertical washing machine and a two-tank washing machine.
