Abstract (en)

The device (1) comprises a monolithic support housing (2), of electrically insulating material, having the shape substantially of a shaped tank, with a main assembly opening (3) and with an intermediate baffle (4) which extends between the main opening (3) and a base wall (5) and divides the area within the housing (2) into a first and a second cavity (6, 7) communicating with one another via a thin slot (8). A lateral wall (9) of the housing (2) comprises a secondary working opening (10) for the insertion into this first cavity (6) of a hook member (11) of a door of the domestic electrical appliance. A slide (12) is mounted in the housing (2) via the main opening (3) and extends into the first and second cavity (6, 7) through the slot (8) and can, in operation, move in translation in the housing (2) adjacent to the lateral wall (9) in a direction (16) parallel to the secondary opening (10). This slide (12) comprises a first and a second portion (13, 14) which extend into the first and second cavity (6, 7) respectively, the first portion (13) comprising a hooking opening (17) facing the secondary opening (10) of the housing (2) and adapted to cooperate with the hook member (11) of the door, the second portion (14) having a locking opening (18) A resilient member (19) is mounted in the first cavity (6) and tends to maintain the slide (12) in a predetermined rest position. An electronically operated control module (24) is mounted through the main opening (3) in the second cavity (7) adjacent to the second portion (14) of the slide (12) and comprises a moving locking member (25) which may be engaged in the locking opening (18) of the second portion (14) of the slide (12).
