Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1849904A1] The invention concerns a self-closing of the draining filter access apparatus ( 10 ) integrated in the lifter diametrically opposite to the drum ( 1 ) access door ( 2 ), comprised of a body ( 11 ), including an opening ( 111 ) aligned with an opening of the same shape and dimensions made in the body of the drum ( 1 ), and a lid ( 12 ) articulated towards the body ( 11 ), locking on the body ( 11 ) by a simple ratchet mechanism. The articulation axis of the lid ( 12 ) is inclined towards the back by an alpha angle corresponding approximately to the angle of rotation to communicate to the drum ( 1 ) to bring the opening ( 111 ) of the body ( 11 ) of the apparatus ( 10 ) even with the filter basket put on the drain well of the machine tub, in order to obtain the self-closing of the apparatus ( 10 ) when the drum ( 1 ) returns in the loading position.
