A hydraulic distributor for a washing machine that comprises a rotating drive shaft (), a distribution nozzle () that rotates jointly with the drive shaft () and diverts the water to a plurality of compartments, a hydraulic body () that comprises a emptying pipe (), a draining pipe () and an exit pipe () for re-circulation, and a valve body () housed inside said hydraulic body (). The valve body () comprises an obturator () that pivots with respect to an axis (), and an arm () that rotates jointly with the drive shaft (), the rotation of said arm () causing said obturator () to oscillate between a first position in which the obturator () closes the draining pipe () and a second position in which the obturator () closes the exit pipe ().

Hydraulic distributor for a washing machine

Sensor device for a household appliance that includes a body (), detector device to measure at least one variable of a fluid and which includes a conductivity sensor, and a printed circuit () that receives the variables measured by the detector device. The body () includes a housing () where the printed circuit () is housed, and the device () also includes a cover () to close the housing (). The body () also includes an inlet conduit () and an outlet conduit () through which said fluid passes, the housing (), the printed circuit () and the cover () being disposed transversally to the conduits () between the conduits (). The conductivity sensor is connected to said body () and is connected to or next to the printed circuit ().

Sensor device for a household appliance

A hydraulic distributor for a washing machine which comprises a rotating axle (), water being directed from the mains to a plurality of compartments of the washing machine by means of the rotation of said rotating axle (); a hydraulic body () which comprises an emptying pipe (), a draining pipe () and an exit pipe () for re-circulation; and a valve body () housed inside said hydraulic body (). By means of the rotation of the rotating axle () the valve body () can have a first position, in which the flow from the emptying pipe () is directed to the draining pipe (), and a second position, in which the flow from the emptying pipe () is directed to the exit pipe () for re-circulation.

Bidirectional hydraulic pump that comprises a hydraulic body () comprising an inlet port () from which receives a water flow, a first outlet port () and a second outlet port (); an impeller housed in said hydraulic body (), which causes the water flow to move in either one direction or the other; and a valve body () that surrounds the impeller. The valve body () comprises at least one orifice () and said valve body () is slidable on the internal surface of the hydraulic body () in one direction or the other, due to the action of the water flow, between a first position wherein the orifice () is aligned with the first outlet port () and a second position wherein the orifice () is aligned with the second outlet port ().
