Abstract:
A control unit (3) for controlling an electric household appliance, e.g. a refrigerator, is connected in series with a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) resistive unit (4) which, when supplied with electric current, generates sufficient heat to activate a thermally activated actuating element (6) for selectively turning on/off respective auxiliary switches (9) of the electric household appliance. The thermally activated actuating element (6) includes a temperature-deformable element (7), e.g. a bimetallic plate, the deformation of which is transmitted by kinematic links (10) to a camshaft (8), the cams (12) of which cooperate with the auxiliary switches (9) of the electric household appliance to selectively turn on/off the auxiliary switches (9).
Abstract:
A decelerating device comprising a bushing and a pin carried in a co-axial position by said bushing, a first end of the pin being housed idle inside said bushing and a second end of the pin, opposite to the first end, projecting axially in cantilever fashion from the bushing; said pin being provided with first means of constraint to a first member, in particular to an oscillating door of the drum of a top-loaded washing machine, and said bushing being provided with second means of constraint to a second member, in particular defined by the aforesaid drum; inside said bushing, between the pin and one internal side wall of the bushing, there being housed, alongside one another, at a pre-set axial distance apart from one another, one or more deformable annular gasket elements, on which said pin rotates idle in a frictioned way with respect to said bushing; each of said deformable annular gasket elements preferably having, in radial cross section, in undeformed conditions, a peripheral profile defining at least one concavity.
Abstract:
A service device for a refrigerator having a refrigerating chamber, the device having an electric circuit portion and a mechanical portion. The electric circuit portion is connectable to the refrigerator outside the refrigerating chamber, and the mechanical portion is at least partly insertable inside the refrigerating chamber and cooperates with the electric circuit portion.
Abstract:
A device for controlling an electric appliance having a door, a main power circuit, and a switch for automatically cutting off the main circuit when the door is opened. The switch is a reactivatable magnetic switch, which selectively assumes a closed position and an open position respectively closing and opening the main circuit. The magnetic switch is powered by an activating circuit, which is cut off when the door is opened and a movable part of a hinge supporting the door is rotated. When the activating circuit is cut off, the magnetic switch is moved into the open position by the action of a spring which keeps the magnetic switch in the open position even when the activating circuit is closed again. And turning the appliance back on calls for direct manual intervention by the user, who, after closing the door, must reactivate the magnetic switch by pressing a push-button, in opposition to the spring, to move the magnetic switch into the closed position.
