Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Geschirrspül- oder Waschmaschine mit einer in eine Tragwand abdichtend eingebauten Dosiervorrichtung für Wasch-und/oder Spülmittel, wobei die Tragwand ein Fenster mit einem Durchzug in Gestalt eines abgekanteten Randstreifens aufweist und das Gehäuse der Dosiervorrichtung gegliedert ist in eine Außenpartie, die mit einem eine Dichtung aufweisenden Auflageflansch an der vom Durchzug abgewandten flachen Seite der Fensterumrandung aufliegt, und in eine Einschubpartie, welche die Tragwand durchsetzt.The invention relates to a dishwasher or washing machine with a metering device for detergents and / or dishwashing detergents built into a supporting wall, the supporting wall having a window with a passage in the form of a bevelled edge strip and the housing of the metering device being divided into an outer part which with a bearing flange having a seal rests on the flat side of the window border facing away from the passage, and in a slide-in section which penetrates the supporting wall.

Dosiervorrichtungen dieser Art, vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff bestehend, sind bislang mit Hilfe von Schrauben befestigt worden. Ein Beispiel ist in der US-A 3 285 471 dargestellt, wobei jedoch der Rand des Tragwandfensters zur Versteifung zweimal abgekantet ist und die Außenpartie bzw. der eingelegte Dichtungsring auf einem zur Tragwand parallelen vertieften Randstreifen aufliegt.Dosing devices of this type, preferably made of plastic, have so far been attached using screws. An example is shown in US Pat. No. 3,285,471, but the edge of the supporting wall window is folded twice for stiffening and the outer part or the inserted sealing ring rests on a recessed edge strip parallel to the supporting wall.

Es erfordert eine erhebliche Anpreßkraft, um auch bei fertigungsbedingten Unebenheiten der Tragwand den Dichtungsring auf ganzer Länge ausreichend zu verformen und so die Abdichtung sicherzustellen. Insbesondere im Hinblick auf dieses Dichtungsproblem glaubte man, auf Schrauben nicht verzichten zu können.It requires considerable contact pressure in order to sufficiently deform the sealing ring over its entire length, even in the event of unevenness in the supporting wall, and thus ensure the seal. In view of this sealing problem in particular, it was believed that screws could not be dispensed with.

Deshalb wurden bislang in der Hausgerätefertigung die Dosiervorrichtungen von Hand montiert, was bei üblicherweise vier bis sechs Schrauben pro Vorrichtung einen nicht unerheblichen Kostenfaktor darstellt.For this reason, the dosing devices have so far been assembled by hand in household appliance production, which is a not inconsiderable cost factor with typically four to six screws per device.

Andererseits ist es aus der US-A 3 412 225 und der US-A 3 793 563 bekannt, elektrische Schalter und in Bedienungstafeln einzubauende elektrische Instrumente mit Hilfe von sich elastisch abspreizenden Zungen zu befestigen, die am Schaltergehäuse oder einem Zwischenring angeformt sind. Die betreffenden Gehäuse brauchen dabei nur eingesteckt zu werden und sitzen dann - infolge entsprechender Ausbildung der Stützzungen auch bei unterschiedlicher Dicke der Bedienungstafel - von selbst fest. Dichtringe sind dabei jedoch nicht vorgesehen und überhaupt kommt es auf eine abdichtende Montage nicht an.On the other hand, it is known from US-A 3,412,225 and US-A 3,793,563 to fasten electrical switches and electrical instruments to be installed in control panels with the aid of elastically spreading tongues which are integrally formed on the switch housing or an intermediate ring. The relevant housings only need to be plugged in and then - due to the corresponding design of the support tongues even with different thicknesses of the control panel - are fixed by themselves. However, sealing rings are not provided and sealing installation is not important at all.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, den Einbau von Dosiervorrichtungen in Fenster von Tragwänden bei Hausgeräten zu vereinfachen und so zu gestalten, daß selbsttätige Manipulatoren, d.h. Fertigungsroboter hierfür zum Einsatz kommen können.The invention has for its object to simplify the installation of metering devices in windows of supporting walls in household appliances and to design such that automatic manipulators, i.e. Manufacturing robots can be used for this.

Diese Aufgabe wird ausgehend von einer Geschirrspül- oder Waschmaschine der einleitend bezeichneten Art erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß an den Seitenflächen der Einschubpartie des Dosiervorrichtungsgehäuses sich elastisch abspreizende Stützzungen angeformt sind, deren Stirnflächen sich an der Innenkante des Durchzugs abstützen.This object is achieved, starting from a dishwasher or washing machine of the type described in the introduction, in that elastically spreading support tongues are formed on the side faces of the insertion part of the metering device housing, the end faces of which are supported on the inner edge of the passage.

Es wird also die bei elektrischen Komponenten an sich bekannte Befestigungstechnik übernommen, wobei es auf eine einwandfreie Abdichtung der einzubauenden Vorrichtungen entscheidend ankommt. Dies ist möglich, weil die Stützkraft in den Randstreifen der Tragwand nicht senkrecht zu dessen Flächenerstreckung eingeleitet wird, wie bekannt, sondern in Richtung der Fläche. Die Stützzungen stehen etwa in derselben Ebene wie der Durchzug. Die zum Zusammenpressen der Dichtung erforderlichen Kräfte verteilen sich im Durchzug in dessen biegesteifer Belastungsrichtung, so daß eine langfristig zuverlässige Abdichtung erreicht wird und der Einsatz von selbsttätigen Montagevorrichtungen möglich ist.The fastening technology known per se in electrical components is therefore adopted, it being crucially important that the devices to be installed are properly sealed. This is possible because the supporting force is not introduced into the edge strips of the supporting wall perpendicular to its surface extension, as is known, but in the direction of the surface. The support tongues are roughly on the same level as the thread. The forces required to compress the seal are distributed in the passage in its rigid direction of loading, so that a long-term reliable seal is achieved and the use of automatic assembly devices is possible.

Üblicherweise hat der für das Gehäuse verwendete Kunststoff eine ausreichende Elastizität und Dauerfließfestigkeit. Wenn die Einschubpartie des Dosiervorrichtunggehäuses in das Tragwandfenster eingesetzt wird, legt sich der Durchzug über die Stützzungen und drückt diese unter elastischer Verformung so weit an die Seitenfläche der Einschubpartie an, daß diese in das Fenster eindringen kann. Sobald aber das Ende der Stützzungen die innere Kante des Durchzugs, passiert, versuchen sich die Stützzungen aufzuspreizen, wobei ihre zur Spreizrichtung geneigten Stirnflächen sich verkeilen und nach einer begrenzten Spreizbewegung sich fest an den Kanten abstützen. Dabei kann es von Vorteil sein, wenn sich die scharfen Blechkanten in die Stützflächen eindrücken, wodurch sich eine kräftige und vibrationssichere Abstützung ergibt.The plastic used for the housing usually has sufficient elasticity and permanent flow resistance. When the insertion part of the metering device housing is inserted into the supporting wall window, the passage lies over the supporting tongues and presses them against the side surface of the insertion part with elastic deformation so that it can penetrate into the window. However, as soon as the end of the support tongues passes the inner edge of the passage, the support tongues try to spread out, their end faces inclined to the direction of expansion becoming wedged and firmly supported on the edges after a limited expansion movement. It can be advantageous if the sharp sheet metal edges press into the support surfaces, which results in a strong and vibration-proof support.

Dabei ist es von größter Bedeutung und ausschlaggebendem Vorteil, daß die Stützzungen sich immer weiter aufspreizen, je größer die auf die Dosiervorrichtung in Einbaurichtung ausgeübte Kraft ist. Zweckmäßigerweise sind die Stirnflächen der Stützzungen in Spreizrichtung breiter als der Stützzungenquerschnitt im übrigen. Die Stirnflächen passen sich infolge der Keilwirkung selbsttätig den gegebenen Verhältnissen an und lassen kein Zurückfedern zu. Dadurch werden unumgängliche Fertigungstoleranzen, unter anderen hinsichtlich der Höhe der Durchzüge, ohne Schwierigkeiten aufgenommen.It is of the greatest importance and decisive advantage that the support tongues spread ever wider, the greater the force exerted on the metering device in the installation direction. The end faces of the support tongues are expediently wider in the expansion direction than the rest of the support tongue cross section. The end faces adapt themselves automatically to the given conditions due to the wedge effect and do not allow springing back. As a result, unavoidable manufacturing tolerances, including the height of the draw-throughs, can be accommodated without difficulty.

Es ist somit möglich, unter Einsatz selbsttätiger Manipulatoren Dosiervorrichtungen oder andere gegenüber der Tragwand abzudichtende Komponenten voll selbsttätig in die betreffenden Maschinen dicht einzubauen. Die Geräte werden einfach mit der Einschubpartie voraus in die Fensterausschnitte eingedrückt und krallen sich von selbst fest.It is thus possible, using automatic manipulators, to install dosing devices or other components to be sealed against the supporting wall fully automatically in the machines in question. The devices are simply pushed into the window cut-outs with the slide-in section ahead and grip themselves by themselves.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand der Zeichnung erläutert. Im einzelnen zeigt

  • Fig. 1 einen Teilschnitt I-I des Gehäuses eines Klarspülmittel-Dosiergeräts etwa im Maßstab 2,5 : 1,
  • Fig. 2 einen Horizontalschnitt 11-11 einer Eckpartie des Geräts nach Fig. 1 und
  • Fig. 3 eine teilweise Seitenansicht des Geräts nach Fig. 1.
An embodiment of the invention is explained below with reference to the drawing. In detail shows
  • 1 is a partial section II of the housing of a rinse aid dispenser approximately on a scale of 2.5: 1,
  • Fig. 2 is a horizontal section 11-11 of a corner portion of the device of FIG. 1 and
  • 3 is a partial side view of the device of FIG. 1st

Das dargestellte Gehäuse, dessen Innenaufbau im einzelnen nicht gezeigt ist, besteht aus einer Außenpartie 1, die durch Spiegelschweißung entlang einer Schweißnaht 2 mit einer Innenpartie 3 verschweißt ist. Die Außenpartie ist für die Hausfrau zugänglich, wenn das Gerät, wie gezeigt, in das dem Spülraum zugewandte Innenblech 4 der Beschickungstür einer Geschirrspülmaschine eingebaut ist. Die Angaben "außen" und "innen" beziehen sich somit auf den Türinnenraum, in welchem sich die Innenpartie 3 befindet.The housing shown, the inner structure of which is not shown in detail, consists of an outer part 1 which is welded to an inner part 3 by mirror welding along a weld seam 2. The outside area is accessible to the housewife if the device, as shown, in the Inner sheet 4 facing the washing compartment of the loading door of a dishwasher is installed. The information "outside" and "inside" thus refer to the interior of the door in which the inner part 3 is located.

Gegenüber dem mit der Innenpartie 3 verschweißten Abschnitt der Außenpartie 1 ist der Außenabschnitt verbreitert und bildet einen Auflageflansch, der in einer umlaufenden Nut 5 einen Dichtungsring 6 aufnimmt und mit einer Leiste 7 auf dem Innenblech 4 aufliegt. An den geraden Abschnitten wird der Dichtungsring zwischen der Leiste 7 und einzelnen kleinen Rippen 8 gehalten.Compared to the section of the outer section 1 welded to the inner section 3, the outer section is widened and forms a support flange which receives a sealing ring 6 in a circumferential groove 5 and rests on the inner sheet 4 with a strip 7. At the straight sections, the sealing ring is held between the strip 7 and individual small ribs 8.

An der Seitenfläche der Innenpartie 3 sitzen hakenförmige Stützzungen 9 an, die dem Auflageflansch zu abgewinkelt sind. An den freien Enden weisen diese Stützzungen 9 eine verbreiterte, treppenförmig abgestufte Stirnfläche 10 auf, die in Fig. 1 durch eine strichpunktierte Linie verdeutlicht ist. Die Stützzunge 9 läßt sich im Sinne einer Schwenkbewegung elastisch verformen. Die Tangente des Schwenkbogens ist eingezeichnet und mit einem von der Innenpartie wegführenden Pfeil bezeichnet. Zu dieser sogenannten Spreizrichtung 11 ist die Stirnfläche 10 nach innen geneigt.On the side surface of the inner part 3 sit hook-shaped support tongues 9, which are angled to the support flange. At the free ends, these support tongues 9 have a widened, stepped end face 10, which is illustrated in FIG. 1 by a dash-dotted line. The support tongue 9 can be elastically deformed in the sense of a pivoting movement. The tangent of the swivel arc is shown and marked with an arrow leading away from the inner part. The end face 10 is inclined inwards to this so-called expansion direction 11.

An der in Fig. 1 oberen gewölbten Fläche der Stützzunge 9 setzt eine Führungsrippe 12 an, die nach innen und zur Innenpartie 3 hin schräg ausläuft. Das Innenblech 4, welches die Tragwand für das beschriebene Gehäuse bildet, hat einen nach innen abgekanteten Durchzug 13, auf dessen Kante die Stützzunge 9 aufsteht.A guide rib 12 attaches to the curved surface of the supporting tongue 9 in FIG. 1, which tapers out at an angle towards the inside and towards the inner part 3. The inner plate 4, which forms the supporting wall for the housing described, has an inwardly bent passage 13, on the edge of which the supporting tongue 9 stands up.

Das Einsetzen des beschriebenen Gehäuses erfolgt gern. Fig. 1 von unten her mit der Innenpartie 3 voraus. Der Dichtring 6 ist in die Nut 5 eingefügt. Zunächst ergibt sich eine gewisse Führung oder Zentrierung dadurch, daß der Rücken der Führungsrippe 12 über die dazu querstehende Biegekante des Innenblechs 4 gleitet. Wenn die Stützzungen 9, die mit einem gegenseitigen Abstand von etwa 3 cm über den Umfang der Innenpartie verteilt sind, mit dem Innenblech in Berührung kommen, verformen sie sich, wie in Fig. 1 strichpunktiert eingezeichnet, und gleiten mit der Außenkante der Stirnfläche 10 am Durchzug 13 entlang. Im weiteren Verlauf der Einsetzbewegung wird eine erhebliche Kraft aufgewendet, so daß die Biegekante des Innenblechs 4 den Dichtring 6 quetscht und schließlich die Leiste 7 außen auf dem Innenblech 4 zur Anlage kommt. Die Stützzungen 9 sind so angeordnet, daß in dieser Stellung die Kante der Stirnfläche 10 über den Durchzug hinausgewandert ist, so daß die Stützzunge 9 sich ein wenig aufspreizen kann. Dabei kommt freilich eine der Stufen der Stirnfläche 10 an der Kante des Durchzugs 13 zum Anschlag. In dieser Stellung ruht die Stützzunge 9 auf dem Durchzug 13 auf und bewirkt eine sichere und haltbare Verriegelung oder Verklammerung des Gehäuses im Tragblech. Die Stützkräfte werden auch über die Führungsrippen 12 in das Gehäuse eingeleitet.The housing described is gladly inserted. Fig. 1 from below with the inner part 3 ahead. The sealing ring 6 is inserted into the groove 5. First of all, a certain guidance or centering results from the fact that the back of the guide rib 12 slides over the transverse bending edge of the inner plate 4. When the support tongues 9, which are distributed at a mutual distance of about 3 cm over the circumference of the inner part, come into contact with the inner sheet, they deform, as shown in dash-dot lines in FIG. 1, and slide with the outer edge of the end face 10 on Passage 13 along. In the further course of the insertion movement, a considerable force is applied, so that the bending edge of the inner plate 4 squeezes the sealing ring 6 and finally the strip 7 comes to rest on the inner plate 4. The support tongues 9 are arranged so that in this position the edge of the end face 10 has migrated beyond the passage, so that the support tongue 9 can spread out a little. Of course, one of the steps of the end face 10 comes to a stop at the edge of the passage 13. In this position, the support tongue 9 rests on the passage 13 and brings about a secure and durable locking or clamping of the housing in the support plate. The supporting forces are also introduced into the housing via the guide ribs 12.

Zum eventuellen Wiederausbau ist als Hilfswerkzeug ein starrer Rahmen vorgesehen, dessen lichter Querschnitt der Fensteröffnung entspricht. Dieser nicht gezeigte Rahmen wird von innen her über die Stützzungen 9 gestülpt, wodurch diese in die strichpunktiert gezeichnete Stellung zurückgezwängt werden, so daß sich das Gehäuse herausnehmen läßt.For possible dismantling, a rigid frame is provided as an auxiliary tool, the clear cross-section of which corresponds to the window opening. This frame, not shown, is slipped from the inside over the support tongues 9, as a result of which these are forced back into the position shown in broken lines, so that the housing can be removed.
