"Hinge for household» appliances and machines, especially washing machines ".

The innovation aims to create a simple and cost-saving built-up hinge for household appliances and machines, in particular for washing machines, the pivoting the outermost articulation-side edge of the pivotable wall within the fixed wall.

According to the innovation, this task is performed on a hinge for Household appliances and machines, in particular washing machines, solved in that a on a movable wall, such as cover, door or flap, to be arranged hinge part with a bearing axis displaceable in a guide groove of a hinge part that can be fixed to a stationary wall, such as the housing wall (body wall) held and by one on both hinge parts

articulated guide lever within the? fixed Housing wall - outer surface is positively connected pivotably.

In a preferred embodiment, the two hinges are lying next to each other in the plane of the pivot wall can be pivoted with each other in a pivot angle of at least 9o connected to each other and the bearing axis of the movable hinge part engages in the elongated hole-shaped, with its linear expansion running in the longitudinal direction of the fixed hinge part and at least almost parallel to the closed swivel wall Guide groove. The guide lever is of a Z-fbitrig formed rod and holds with its two Z-Schenkelr as a bearing pin in the two hinge parts at a distance from the Bearing axis and at a distance from the guide groove and lies with its Z-bar between the adjacent hinge parts.

Extend when the hinge is open and closed see the two Z legs of the guide lever on the bearing axis on the corner points of a triangle.

Further features of the innovation emerge from the other subclaims.

The object of the innovation does not only extend to that Features of the individual claims, but also on their combination.

The hinge according to the innovation is simple and cost-saving built up and shows a safe and trouble-free mode of operation and durable design.

It is particularly advantageous that this hinge allows the outermost articulation-side edge of the pivot wall to be pivoted not over the outer surface of the fixed wall is moved out, so that machines and devices with walls pivoted by the innovation are close to a

Support surface (building surface, wall surface) and also tight can be created aneinttnd; the devices and machines can be set up absolutely flush with the wall.

Such a hinge is suitable for a wide variety of household appliances and machines and can also be used for furniture and in the case of external institutions? er *? ends- ssrdsn.

2 shows a longitudinal section through a hinge holding the cover on the housing in a closed position Lid position,

FIG. 3 is a plan view of the hinge with cover according to FIG. 2,

Fig. J shows a longitudinal section through the hinge in the open Lid position,

FIG. 5 shows a plan view, partially in section, of the hinge with cover according to FIG. 4.

A hinge according to the innovation for household appliances and -machines such as washing machines, tumble dryers, refrigerators, Stoves, ovens or the like., Has a on a movable wall Io, such as TQr, flap, lid or the like. To be arranged and one on one fixed wall 11, such as housing wall (body wall) can be fixed Hinge part 12,13, which is slidably bordered by a groove 14 in a guide of the fixed hinge part 13 Bearing axis 15 of the movable hinged part 12 and

-S-

by means of a guide lever 16 articulated in the two hinge parts 12, 13 in a positively guided, pivotable manner sinti.

The two hinge parts 12, 13 are in the plane of the pivotable wall Io next to one another and arranged one inside the other at an opening angle (swivel angle) of at least 9o ° connected.

^{The bearing axis 15 extends in one end area of the movable hinge part 12 and engages in the elongated guide groove I 1} * which runs parallel to the closed pivot wall Ic with its length extension of the fixed hinge part 13 and at least nshesu parallel to the closed pivot wall Ic, this bearing axis 15 being rigidly mounted in the hinge part 12 is and engages in the guide groove 14 of the other hinge part 13 rotatably and displaceably.

The guide lever 16 is preferably formed by a Z-shaped (curved) rod, preferably a round rod, which with its two Z legs 16a, 16b at a distance from the bearing axis 15 and at a distance from the elongated guide hole l ¹ » engages rotatably in the two hinge parts 12, 15 and lies with its Z-web l6c between the two hinge parts 12, 13 arranged next to one another.

Tn open position and closed position of the pivotable The Z-legs 16a, 16b, which are rotatably mounted in both hinge parts 12, 13, extend as bearing journals with the wall Io

Bearing axis 15 (hinge pin) on the corner points of a

the triangle; the Z-leg 16a extends in the / elongated hole facing away end region of the hinge part 13 and the other Z-leg l6b is about the same distance from the Bearing axis 15 »like the Z-leg 16a to the adjacent end of the guide groove.

The guide lever 16 can also have two on a flat web 16c

- Have 6 journals l6a, I6b.

To the bordering in the guide groove IM sub-area of Bearing axis 15 is "in noise-reducing part 17," such as plastic or rubber layer, rotatable roller or the like., arranged,

The guide groove lh is worked into the same from the side 1.3 adjacent to the hinge part 12 and occupies a partial area of the width of the hinge part 13.

The two hinge parts 12,13 can see through any Fastening means »such as screws or the like., On the respective»! Determine wall Io, 11 in terms of position.

For larger friction surfaces between the adjacent ones Hinge parts 12, 13 are to be avoided around the bearing axis 15 on the hinge part 12 and around the two Z-legs i6a, 16b de «guide lever 16 protruding on both eye parts 12,13 Approaches 18, provided.

The thickness of the pivotable wall is located in a step 19 of the hinge part 13 in the closed state insert so that this swivel wall Io in the closed state with its visible surface is flush with an end area of the hinge part 13 runs (Fig. 2); the swivel wall grasps with a recess 2o around the visible hinge ^ part end area.

The cover Io can also be designed without a recess 2o and cover the hinge part 13; the hinge part can also be 13 without gradation 19.

The two hinge parts 12, 13 can be made of plastic or metal.

When the wall Io is pivoted, the outermost one moves articulation-side edge within the fixed wall 11 and

does not protrude beyond the outer surface 21 of this stationary one Wall 11 also - the hinge point 15 is when opening through the guide lever 16 from the outer wall edge 21 inwards into the device or the machine? drawn in (relocated ).
