Abstract

This invention relates to a washer/dryer (1) wherein the cable bundle (3) and suspension spring (4) are secured in a desired position.

Description

Description A WASHER / DRYER
[001] This invention relates to a washer/dryer (1) wherein the cable bundle and suspension spring (4) are secured in a desired position. [002] In washer/dryers, the cable bundle transmitting the voltage drawn from the network to the related functioning components should be securely fixed onto the body.
Especially in parts where the suspension spring passes through, the cable bundle comprising cables and the suspension spring, which supports the tub while moving, should be positioned in such a way that they do not contact one another and cause an electrical leakage. [003] The object of the present invention is to provide a washer/dryer; such that cable bundle and suspension spring of which are fixed in such a way that one does not contact the other. [004] The washer/dryer designed to fulfill the object of the present invention is illustrated in the attached figures, where:
[005] Figure 1 - is the schematic view of a washer/dryer
[006] Figure 2 - is the top perspective view of a holder
[007] Figure 3 - is the bottom perspective view of a holder
[008] Figure 4 - is the perspective view of a holder placed on a body such that there are cable bundle and suspension spring over it. [009] Figure 5 - is the other perspective view of a holder placed on a body such that there are cable bundle and suspension spring over it. [010] Figure 6 - is the exploded view of a body, a holder, a cable bundle and a suspension spring [011] Elements shown in figures are numbered as follows:
1. Washer/dryer
2. Body
3. Cable bundle
4. Suspension spring
5. Holder
6. Aperture
7. Support
8. Channel
9. Cable housing
10. Suspension spring housing
11. Bracket
12. Projection 13. Slot
14. Tub
15. Drum
[012] Washer/dryers (1) comprise a drum (15) into which the laundry is loaded, a tub (14) wherein the drum (15) is positioned, a body (2) which encloses and supports the tub (14), the drum (15) and other components, a cable bundle (3) having cables transmitting the voltage drawn from the network to the related functioning components, a suspension spring (4) which dampens the forces generated as a result of the weight and the dynamic motion of the tub, and a holder (5), which provides the fixing of the suspension spring (4) and cable bundle (3), which are in close proximity, onto the body (2) in such a way to prevent such from damaging each other.
[013] The body (2) comprises an aperture (6) preferably on the steel sheet projection that can be reached from both sides wherein the holder (5) is positioned, and at least one projection (12) inside the aperture (6) for fixing the support (7).
[014] The holder (5) comprises a support (7) on its center, a channel (8) under the support
(7) into which the sides of the aperture (6) are inserted providing it to fit into the aperture (6), at least one suspension spring housings (10) wherein the suspension spring (4) is attached in a such a way to prevent the cable bundle (3) and the suspension spring (4) from contacting each other, a cable housing (9) where the cable bundle (3) is positioned, a bracket (1 1) located on one of the sides of the support (7) which assures that the suspension spring (4) does not leave from the aperture (6) due to forces acting upon it, and slots (13) in shape and numbers fitting the respective attachment projections (12) which provides the fixing to the body (2).
[015] In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the suspension spring housings (10) are positioned on each side of the support (7).
[016] In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, a hook shaped cable housing
(9) is utilised.
[017] In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the body (2) comprises structures and surfaces in the shape of projections and/or recesses on the periphery of the aperture (6) to prevent it from being affected by forces and moments acting in various directions.
[018] In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, after the holder (5) is placed in the aperture (6), the drive assembly of the washer/dryer (1) is suspended onto the holder (5) by the suspension spring (4). Further steps of the assembly comprise the fixing of cables by means of attaching the cable bundle (3) comprised of cables onto the holder (5).
[019] With the application of the present invention, effects inflicted by movable components, parts upon which force is applied like suspension spring (4) or the free oscillations of the cable bundle (3) is prevented, thus the user is protected against probable electrical leakages.
