HAUSHALTSEINBAUGERÄT MIT AN DIE GERÄTETÜR ANGEORDNETER VORSATZPLATTE

In a built-in domestic appliance with a door (2) hinged along its bottom side and provided with a front decorative panel (1) applied to the appliance through a mounting system including a sliding coupling between the panel (1) and the door (2) with sliding direction orthogonal to the rotation axis of the door, the panel (1) is also connected to the machine frame through an articulated lever system (9, 10) connected by an arcuate tie-rod (7) to the hinge of the door (2) so as to achieve an automatic upward and downward sliding of the panel (1) during the opening and closing of the door (2) respectively. In this way it is possible to mount panels higher than 800 mm, whose bottom edge (15) extends nearly to the floor, on the same machines manufactured for the application of standard panels, since the opening and closing movement of the door (2) also causes the automatic movement of the panel (1) with respect to the door (2).
