Abstract (en)
The porthole door for washing machine or washing dryer or tumble dryer, comprises a resilient inspection glass (9) curved to the machine inside, and a frame with inner ring and a blend ring (7). At the frame a centering means (11) is arranged, which rests against the circulating edge (12) of the inspection glass. A radially effecting strength affects over the circulating edge of several places of the inspection glass and thus the inspection glass positions in a centered position within the frame. The porthole door on the outer side possesses a viewing panel. The porthole door for washing machine or washing dryer or tumble dryer, comprises a resilient inspection glass (9) curved to the machine inside, and a frame with inner ring and a blend ring (7). At the frame a centering means (11) is arranged, which rests against the circulating edge (12) of the inspection glass. A radially effecting strength affects over the circulating edge of several places of the inspection glass and thus the inspection glass positions in a centered position within the frame. The porthole door on the outer side possesses a viewing panel, which covers the curvature of the inspection glass. At the framework a further centering means is arranged, which rests against the circulating edge of the resilient panel and thus the panel positions in a centered position within the frame. The centering means possesses several resilient elements, which are rotated in uniform manner. The centering means comprises resilient elements for the inspection glass and further resilient elements for viewing panel. The centering means is formed as annular section, at which the resilient elements and the further resilient elements are arranged. Multi annular section-shaped centering means are arranged around the circulating edge of the inspection glass and/or around the edge of the viewing panel at the blend ring or inner ring of the frame. The centering means comprises a ring, which is arranged and/or fixed at the blend ring or inner ring of the frame. The centering means with the resilient elements is implemented in single piece manner.
