Definitions
- This invention relates to a drum to be used in washers/dryers.
- washers/dryers include a drum wherein items to be washed/dried are placed.
- Metallic drums consist of a -preferably- rolled metal sheet strip, with edges joined together so as to acquire a cylindrical shape, a front lid and a back lid.
- the fastening of the edges of the metal sheet strip be realized by cold processes. The main concern in cold fastening processes is to ensure that no shearing occurs along the joining line during the operation of the device, as high loads are exerted on the drum.
- German Patent Document DEI 9821366 provides a description of a fastening process where the seam course is formed by embossing on both sides, with alternating inwards- and outwards directed projections.
- the European Patent EP00395859 describes a cylindrical form achieved by joining the seamed edges of a metal sheet strip, then subjected to pressing.
- the object of this invention is to realize a drum, which is utilized in washers/dryers, capable of withstanding heavy working conditions, with a seam unlikely to cause harm to the items loaded for washing/drying.
- FIG.1 Perspective view of a washer/dryer
- FIG.2 Perspective view of a cylindrical-shaped drum sheet strip
- FIG.3 Schematic frontal view of a cylindrical-shaped body
- FIG.4 Schematic view of the body/front lid/back lid combination
- FIG.5 Schematic view of a joining of a drum body exhibiting several stiffening corrugations placed at equal intervals, with parallel axes;
- Fig.6 View along the SS section of a joining form of the drum sheet metal;
- FIG.8 Schematic view of the joining form of a body having several stiffening corrugations placed at various angles and various intervals
- FIG.9 Schematic view of the joining form of front lid and a body having several stiffening corrugations placed at various angles and various..
- Washers/Dryers (1) contain a drum (2) that rotates around its center axis (H), thus ensuring the washing/drying of the laundries placed within.
- the drum (2) comprises a body (10) preferably made of a coated metal sheet strip, ensuring the washing/drying of laundries placed within; a front lid (11) forming the loading opening of the body (10), preferably made of coated metallic sheet material; a back lid (12) preferably made of coated metallic sheet material, and insuring the confinement of the body (10); seams (5) formed by the folding of side edges into each other alongside the edges of the sheet strip forming the body (10), or alongside the contact between the body (10) and the front lid (11), or alongside the contact between the body (10) and the back lid (12), one or several stiffening corrugation (4) for ensuring a durable connection formed by compressing of seams seam by cold fastening processes, and one or more seam base (6) in the area adjacent to the seam.
- the seam (5) exhibits a seam axis (L), equidistant from its side edges, a seam dent axis (J) equidistant from the seam base (6) and consequently divide the stiffening corrugation (4) in half, and a 'position angle' (G) between the seam axis (L) and the seam dent axis (J) seam.
- the stiffening corrugation (4) is placed such that, the position angle (G) is different from 90° and 180° for preventing from the dynamic forces, the tensions and the torques in various directions acting on it.
- the angle between the seam dent axis (J) and the seam axis (L) is 45°.
- the stiffening corrugation (4) has; a 'fold width' (A) representing the size of the lateral side of the seam (5), a 'seam depth' (B) relating to the depth of the seam formed as a result of the press process, a 'seam top width' (C) formed on the upper surface of the sheet by a plastic deformation of the material as a result of the press process, a 'seam top length' (D) formed on the upper surface of the sheet by a plastic deformation of the material as a result of the press process, a 'seam base width' (E) formed on the sheet, at the base of the seam, as a result of the press process, a 'seam base length' (F) formed on the sheet, at the base of the seam, as a result of the press process, and an 'assembly interval' (K) between drum perforations and/or rib attachment hole.
- A representing the size of the lateral side of the seam (5)
- the seam top length (D) is triple of the fold width (A), while the seam top width (C) is about the triple of the seam base width (E).
- the stiffening corrugation (4) formed at a 45° position angle (G), would affect the seam (5) in its entirety along the seam axis (J) before reaching the area of the sheet, which is not fold.
- Stiffening corrugations (4) could be placed either at regular intervals; or at 'assembly intervals' (K), in a way not to interfere with neighbouring drum perforations or rib attachment holes; or in a more random fashion.
- the position angle (G) is selected so as to allow an assembly interval (K) not interfering with drum perforations and/or rib attachment holes, as a function of the seam position, while precluding the effects of dynamic forces acting in various directions, tensions and torques.
- Stiffening corrugation (4) could be placed as either parallel or with various position angles (G).
- edges are hemmed and clasped before cold pressing as part of the formation of seams (5), sharp elements are eliminated, thus the washed/dried laundries are protected from damage.
- stiffening corrugations (4) created by cold pressing has (have) its (their) edges devoid of sharp or pointed salient, further reducing the risk of material harm to washed/dried laundries.
