Abstract (en)

[origin: CN107190480A] The present invention relates to a laundry care device with a housing and a closed shutter for closing an opening of a housing, wherein the housing has an inner chamber and has a housing opening; the laundry care device has an adapter with a hinge for retaining the closed door on the appliance housing, wherein the gap is released between the adapter and the housing of the housing when the closing shutter is opened.The laundry care device is provided with a sealing element for sealing gaps, wherein the sealing element is hinged to the movable door; the sealing element is clung to the housing. The movable hinge is configured to make the sealing element press the adaptor when the sealing movable door is open so that the gaps between the adaptor and the housing is technically sealed with flow. The sealing element is configured for directing liquid from the inner chamber of the appliance through the sealing element through the housing opening to the outer area of the laundry care device so as to prevent invasion of flow into the gaps when the sealing movable door is open.
