Definitions

the invention relates to a filter arrangement for a laundry treatment machine of the type mentioned in the preamble of patent claim 1 and a laundry treatment machine.
the known filter assemblies include a filter mount, a filter, a flap that can be pivoted about a pivot axis, and a blocking device with a blocking part that is preloaded by a spring of the blocking device, with the filter between a receiving position in which the filter is received in the filter mount and a removal position , in which the filter is removed from the filter holder, can be transferred back and forth, and the flap can be moved back and forth between a closed position in which the flap covers the filter holder in such a way that the flap forms an optical unit with the rest of the laundry treatment machine and/or a enabling the laundry treatment machine to be put into operation, and an open position in which the flap releases the filter holder, can be moved back and forth along an actuation path, and the blocking part of the blocking device can be switched between a blocking position in which the blocking part enables the flap to be transferred to its closed position ver and a release position, in which the blocking part
the invention therefore faces the problem of specifying an improved filter arrangement for a laundry treatment machine and an improved laundry treatment machine.
a filter arrangement for a laundry treatment machine with the features of patent claim 1, which is characterized in that the blocking part is designed as a slide that is movably mounted in a slide guide of the filter arrangement running transversely to the actuation path of the flap, the slide guide having a the blocking position corresponding first end stop for the slide and a corresponding to the release position second end stop for the slide.
a laundry treatment machine having the features of patent claim 9 .
the The laundry treatment machine according to the invention can be designed as a tumble dryer for textiles or a washer-dryer for textiles.
the laundry treatment machine according to the invention can be designed as a household appliance or a commercial appliance, ie a appliance for professional use.
the advantage that can be achieved with the invention is, in particular, that a filter arrangement for a laundry treatment machine and a laundry treatment machine are improved.
the design of the filter arrangement for a laundry treatment machine and the laundry treatment machine according to the invention makes it possible for the flap not to be prestressed in an undesired manner by the blocking device with the blocking part prestressed by the spring.
the flap is constantly mechanically stressed due to the blocking part that is prestressed by means of the spring.
the invention provides a remedy here. Accordingly, the filter arrangement according to the invention and the laundry treatment machine according to the invention are simpler and therefore less expensive to construct and have a longer service life.
the filter arrangement according to the invention for a laundry treatment machine can be freely selected within wide, suitable limits in terms of type, function, material, dimensioning and arrangement.
the filter has a filter handle, with the blocking device and the filter being designed to be coordinated with one another in such a way that the slide can be transferred from its blocked position to its release position by means of the filter handle and can be held in the release position.
the filter is easier to handle on the one hand.
this makes it possible to make the transfer of the slide from its blocking position to its release position dependent not only on the transfer of the filter from its removal position to its receiving position, but also on the relative position of the filter handle. Accordingly, it is possible, for example, to enable or prevent the transfer of the slider from its blocking position to its release position depending on a correct position of the filter handle relative to the filter holder and/or the flap.
the filter and the filter holder are designed to be coordinated with one another that the filter handle between a locking position in which the filter handle is locked to the filter holder, and an unlocked position, in which the filter handle is not locked to the filter holder, can be transferred back and forth, the slide being able to be transferred to its release position and held in the release position by means of the filter handle when it is transferred to the locked position and wherein the slide can be simultaneously moved into the blocking position of the slide by means of the spring when the filter handle is moved into its unlocked position.
this ensures that the slide can only be transferred from its blocking position to its release position if the filter is properly located in its receiving position and is locked by means of the filter handle.
the filter holder has at least one circular arc guide and the filter handle has at least one circular arc projection that corresponds to the circular arc guide, the circular arc projection and the circular arc guide being designed in such a way that they are coordinated with one another such that the filter handle can be adjusted by means of the circular arc projection and the Circular guide can be locked in the filter holder when it is transferred to the locking position and can be unlocked when it is transferred to the unlocked position.
the mechanism for the filter handle for transferring the filter handle from its unlocked position to its locked position and vice versa is implemented in a way that is simple in terms of design and production technology and saves space.
An advantageous development of the last-mentioned embodiment of the filter arrangement according to the invention provides that at least one of the at least one circular arc guide is arranged relative to the slide guide in such a way that the slide guided in the slide guide can be actuated by means of an actuating projection of the slide and the circular arc projection of the filter handle corresponding to the aforementioned circular arc guide the blocking position and the release position can be transferred back and forth.
This enables the mechanical coupling of the filter handle, which is guided in the circular arc guide of the filter holder, to the slide of the blocking device, which is guided in the slide guide, in a structurally particularly simple manner.
the spring is designed as a separate part, preferably that the spring is designed as a metal part.
metal springs for example sheet metal springs or wire springs, are particularly robust and come in a large number of different versions various embodiments commercially available.
the spring it is basically also conceivable for the spring to be designed as an integral part of the slide, for example a slide made of a plastic.
the filter arrangement according to the invention provides that the slide and the slide guide have locking means which correspond to one another, the slide being movably arranged on the filter holder by means of these locking means.
the moveable mounting of the slide on the slide guide is implemented in a structurally particularly simple and robust manner.
a further advantageous development of the filter arrangement according to the invention provides that the flap has a flap projection, the flap projection and the blocking device being designed and arranged in such a way that they are coordinated with one another such that the slide in its blocking position only engages with the flap projection and in its release position with the flap projection is not engaged.
the mechanical operative connection between the blocking device on the one hand and the flap on the other hand is implemented in a simple manner in terms of design and production technology. Furthermore, this does not impair the aesthetic design of the flap in its closed position, for example as a design unit with a body of the laundry treatment machine.
the filter arrangement preferably the filter holder, is at least partially designed as a part of the housing. This reduces the number of components and simplifies the structural design of the laundry treatment machine. This applies in particular to the preferred embodiment of this development.
the laundry treatment machine 1 is designed as a domestic laundry dryer for textiles and has a housing 2 and a filter arrangement 3 .
the filter assembly 3 includes a filter holder 4, a filter 6, a pivotable about a pivot axis 8 flap 10 and a blocking device 12 with a biased by a spring 14 of the blocking device 12 blocking part 16, wherein the filter 6 between a in the 4 and 5 shown recording position, in which the filter 6 is received in the filter holder 4, and one in the 1 removal position shown, in which the filter 6 is removed from the filter holder 4, back and forth can be transferred, and the flap 10 between a in the 7 illustrated closed position, in which the flap 10 covers the filter holder 4 in such a way that the flap 10 forms an optical unit with the rest of the laundry treatment machine 1 and enables the laundry treatment machine 1 to be put into operation, and one in the 1 shown open position, in which the flap 10 releases the filter holder 4, along an actuation path back and forth can be transferred, and the blocking part 16 of the blocking device 12 between one in the 1 ,
Blocking part 16 is designed according to the invention as a slide that is movably mounted in a slide guide 18 of filter arrangement 3 that runs transversely to the actuation path of flap 10, with slide guide 18 having a first end stop for slide 16 that corresponds to the blocking position and one that corresponds to the release position second end stop for the slider 16 has.
the slider 16 is designed as a plastic injection molded part.
the spring 14 is designed as a separate metal spring and is connected in a force-transmitting manner to the slide 16 in a manner known to those skilled in the art.
the slide 16 and the slide guide 18 have mutually corresponding latching means, the slide 16 being movably arranged on the filter mount 4 by means of these latching means.
FIG. 2b See in particular the Figure 2b , in which only the latching means 19 of the slide 16 designed as latching lugs are shown.
These locking means 19 engage in a manner known to those skilled in the art in the correspondingly designed locking means (not shown) of slide guide 18, so that slide 16 is movably held in slide guide 18 in such a way that slide 16 is in the respective image plane of the Figures 1 to 5 is movable from top to bottom and from bottom to top.
the flap 10 has a flap projection 11, the flap projection 11 and the blocking device 12 being designed and arranged in such a way that they are coordinated with one another in such a way that the slide 16 in its blocking position only engages with the flap projection 11 and in its release position it does not interfere with the flap projection 11 intervention is. See in particular the Figures 6 and 7 .
the filter arrangement 3 namely the filter holder 4 , is designed at least partially as a part of the housing 2 .
Filter 6 which is designed as a deep-bed filter and is arranged upstream of a heat exchanger (not shown) of laundry treatment machine 1 in terms of flow in its mounting position, has a filter handle 20, with blocking device 12 and filter 6 being designed to match one another in such a way that slide 16 can be moved by means of filter handle 20 from its Blocking position can be transferred into its release position and can be held in the release position.
the filter 6 and the filter holder 4 are designed to be matched to one another in such a way that the filter handle 20 between one in the figure 5 shown locking position, in which the filter handle 20 is locked to the filter holder 4, and in the 4 illustrated unlocking position, in which the filter handle 20 is not locked to the filter receptacle 4, can be moved back and forth, wherein the slide 16 can be moved to its release position and held in the release position by means of the filter handle 20 when it is moved into the locking position, and wherein the slide 16 can be simultaneously transferred into the blocking position of the slide 16 by means of the spring 14 when the filter handle 20 is moved into its unlocked position.
the filter holder 4 has two circular arc guides 22 and the filter handle 20 has two circular arc projections 24 each corresponding to one of the two circular arc guides 22 , the circular arc projections 24 and the corresponding Circular arc guides 22 are designed to be coordinated with one another such that the filter handle 20 can be locked by means of the circular arc projections 24 and the circular arc guides 22 when it is transferred to the locking position in the filter holder 4 and when it is transferred to the unlocked position it can be unlocked.
One of the two circular arc guides 22 is arranged relative to the slide guide 18 in such a way that the slide 16 guided in the slide guide 18 can be moved between the blocking position and the release position by means of an actuating projection 26 of the slide 16 and the circular arc projection 24 of the filter handle 20, which corresponds to the aforementioned circular arc guide 22 and can be transferred here.
the laundry treatment machine 1 is in the in the 7 shown state in which the flap 10 is in its closed position.
the flap 10 forms an optical unit with the remainder of the laundry treatment machine 1 and also enables the laundry treatment machine 1 to be started up be realized in a simple way.
the filter 6 is in its receiving position, the filter handle 20 is in its locking position and the slider 16 is in its release position.
the flap 10 is not mechanically loaded in an undesired manner by the spring force of the spring 14 in its closed position. This is because the spring 14, which biases the slide 16, acts transversely to the actuating path of the flap 10 due to the arrangement of the slide guide 18.
a user For the purpose of cleaning the filter 6, a user, not shown, opens the flap 10, in which he moves it from its closed position to the 1 , 4 and 5 shown open position transferred.
the user can now the filter handle 20 of its in the figure 5 locking position shown in its in the 1 and 4 transfer the unlocking position shown and remove the filter 6 from the filter holder 4 in a manner known to those skilled in the art by means of the filter handle 20 .
the filter 6 is thus of its in the 4 and 5 shown receiving position in which in the 1 shown removal position transferred.
the slide 16 is transferred by the spring force of the spring 14 along the slide guide 18 from its release position to its blocking position.
the slider 16 is therefore in the 1 , 3 and 4 position shown, i.e. at the upper end stop of slide guide 18.
the filter handle 20 For the purpose of cleaning or replacing the filter 6, provision can be made, for example, for the filter handle 20 to be reusable and only a remainder of the filter 6 to be replaced. Accordingly, the filter handle 20 would be releasably attached to the remainder of the filter 6.
the filter 6 forms an inseparable unit; where the filter handle cannot be detached from the rest of the filter. Since the slide 16, as explained above, is in its blocking position, the flap 10 would be prevented by means of the flap projection 11 and the slide 16 in which in the 7 shown closed position to be transferred. Instead, the flap 10 would push the flap projection 11 against the slide 16, so that the flap 10 only up to one in the 6 intermediate layer shown could be transferred.
the user would thus be able to easily recognize by means of the flap 10 that the filter 6 has not been inserted into the filter holder 4 and locked by means of the filter handle 20 .
An additional electronics or the like for this detection is not required according to the invention.
the flap 10 is not mechanically loaded due to the spring force of the spring 14 that pretensions the slide 16 in the direction of its blocking position. Since the flap 10 is not in its closed position, the above example, not shown switch for starting up the laundry treatment machine 1 by means of the flap 10 is not actuated, so that when the flap 10 is in the aforementioned intermediate position, the laundry treatment machine 1 can be started up, i.e. a Starting the laundry treatment machine 1 for drying textiles to be dried is not possible.
the user After the filter 6 has been cleaned or replaced by the user, the user inserts the filter 6 back into the filter holder 4 using the filter handle 20 . The filter 6 is thus again transferred from its removal position to its receiving position. The filter 6 is now reinserted into the filter holder 4; see the 4 .
the user transfers the filter handle 20 of the filter 6 from its in the 4 unlocking position shown in its in the figure 5 locking position shown.
the user rotates the filter handle 20 in the present exemplary embodiment by one in the respective image plane 4 and 5 horizontal pivot axis of the filter handle 20 in the respective image plane 4 and 5 up.
this locks the filter 6 in its receiving position by means of the filter handle 20 .
Slider 16 by means of the filter handle 20 while of its in the 4 blocking position shown in its in the figure 5 shown release position transferred.
the filter handle 20 comes into engagement with its circular arc projections 24 with the circular arc guide 22 of the filter holder 4 that corresponds to the respective circular arc projection 24 image plane of 1
the circular arc projection 24 shown on the left engages with the actuating projection 26 of the slide 16.
the filter handle 20 thus presses the slide 16 by means of the latter circular arc projection 24 and the actuating projection 26 along the slide guide 18 in the respective image plane 1 and 3 to 5 against the spring force of the spring 14 down, so that the slide 16 of which in the 4 blocking position shown in its in the figure 5 shown release position is transferred.
the filter handle 20 Since the filter 6 is in its recording position in the filter holder 4, the filter handle 20 in its locking position and the slide 16 in its release position, the user can now the flap 10 of which in the 1 , 4 and 5 shown open position in which in the 7 transfer shown closed position. The user can see from the closed position of the flap 10 without additional aids that the filter 6 has been correctly inserted in the filter holder 4 and locked by means of the filter handle 20 .
This is very important for proper and error-free operation of the laundry treatment machine 1, since otherwise there would be a risk that the heat exchanger (not shown) of the laundry treatment machine 1 would become so dirty over time with fluff and the like that the laundry treatment machine 1 would no longer function. Because the flap 10 is now in its closed position again, the above-mentioned switch for starting up the laundry treatment machine 1 is also actuated, so that the user can now switch on the laundry treatment machine 1 .
the flap 10 does not undesirably pass due to the inventive design of the filter arrangement for a laundry treatment machine and the laundry treatment machine according to the present exemplary embodiment the blocking device 12 with the spring 14 biased blocking part 16 biased.
the filter arrangement according to the invention and the laundry treatment machine according to the invention according to the present exemplary embodiment are simpler and therefore less expensive to construct and have a longer service life.
the invention is not limited to the present embodiment.
the laundry treatment machine according to the invention does not necessarily have to be in the form of a tumble dryer for textiles or a washer-dryer for textiles.
the laundry treatment machine according to the invention can be designed as any type of laundry treatment machine within suitable and reasonable limits.
the laundry treatment machine according to the invention can also be designed as a commercial device, ie a device for professional use.
the invention is not limited to the design and manufacturing details of the exemplary embodiment explained. Accordingly, the filter arrangement according to the invention and the laundry treatment machine according to the invention can be adapted to a large number of different applications and designs.
