Abstract
A coupling device for a dishwasher pump with a synchronous motor and external stator, comprising a first tang connected to the delivery tube of the pump, a second tang connected to the suitable pipeline of a washing tank and a connection mean part. The connection mean part comprises a frustum of cone-shaped section, intermediate between said first and second tang and a flexible annular lip formed between said second tang and the smallest base of the frustum of cone-shaped section. Advantageously, the external part of the frustum of cone-shaped section is reinforced with annular ribs.
Claims12
A coupling device for an electropump having a delivery duct to be connected to a washing tank of a dishwasher, wherein the coupling device integrally comprises:
- a first substantially cylindrical tang for connection to the delivery duct;
- a second substantially cylindrical tang for connection to the washing tank;
- a frustum of cone-shaped section, intermediate said first and said second tang, said frustum having its smallest diameter end adjacent said second tang and having its largest diameter end adjacent said first tang, such that the conicity of the frustum faces in the direction of water flow from the first tang to the second tang;
- a flexible annular lip formed between said second tang and said smallest diameter end of said frustum, said flexible annular lip extending outwardly from an external wall of said coupling device to dampen axial vibrations in the coupling device;
- and
- stiffening annular ribs arranged on the external wall of said frustum of cone-shaped section, an internal wall of said frustum of cone-shaped section that is interior to said stiffening annular ribs being generally smooth.
A coupling device for an electropump having a delivery duct to be connected to a washing tank of a dishwasher. wherein the coupling device integrally comprises:
- a first substantially cylindrical tang for connection to the delivery duct;
- a second substantially cylindrical tang for connection to the washing tank;
- a frustum of cone-shaped section, intermediate said first and second tang;
- and
- a flexible annular lip formed between said second tang and the smallest base of said frustum, said flexible annular lip extending outwardly from an external wall of said coupling device to dampen axial vibrations in the coupling device,
- wherein the first and second substantially cylindrical tangs and the frustum of cone-shaped section are substantially the same axial length, such that the overall axial length of the coupling device is approximately three times the axial length of the first tang, second tang or the frustum section, and
- wherein the coupling device comprises stiffening annular ribs arranged on an external wall of said frustum of cone-shaped section.
A coupling device for an electropump having a delivery duct to be connected to a washing tank of a dishwasher, wherein the coupling device integrally comprises:
- a first substantially cylindrical tang for connection to the delivery duct;
- a second substantially cylindrical tang for connection to the washing tank;
- a frustum of cone-shaped section, intermediate said first and second tang;
- a flexible annular lip formed between said second tang and the smallest base of said frustum said flexible annular lip extending outwardly from an external wall of said coupling device to dampen axial vibrations in the coupling device;
- and
- an inner annular rib extending axially from an inner radially extending base wall at a largest diameter end of the frustum of cone-shaped section,
- wherein the coupling device comprises stiffening annular ribs arranged on an external wall of said frustum of cone-shaped section.
