A device for opening a door, in particular an electric household appliance door, wherein a handle and a catch for engaging a respective seat are formed in a one-piece body from polymer material; and an elastic contrasting member, acting on the catch and defined, for example, by a metal plate, is also co-molded in a one-piece body with the handle and the catch, so that the device according to the invention has fewer component parts to assemble as compared with known devices.

Door opening device, in particular for an electric household appliance door

A terminal board including a cup-shaped body having a peripheral outer assembly flange substantially flush with an end wall of the cup-shaped body and in turn having click-on connecting means; a supporting base inserted inside the cup-shaped body and having, on a first face facing away from the end wall of the cup-shaped body, respective electrically conducting tracks, to which respective electronic components of a capacitive or capacitive-inductive noise filter are fixed, and respective, e.g. Faston-type, electric contacts of an insulated electric supply cable, the conducting terminals of the wires of the cable being connected to the conducting tracks, and the cable issuing from the cup-shaped body, on the first face side, through a corner recess defined by the base which is L-shaped; and electrically insulating resin filling and integral with the cup-shaped body, and in which are embedded the base with the electronic components, and at least an outwardly-extending portion of the insulated supply cable, so that the resin acts as a cable clamp.

The invention relates to a light-bulb holder for household appliances in general, and refrigerators and freezers in particular, comprising a board structure fabricated from an electrically insulating material and bounded by a peripheral edge and a pair of oppositely disposed lateral surfaces, and an electrically conductive plate divided into sections so as to define an electrical circuit and disposed inside the board structure. The board structure is equipped with an integrally formed and peripherally projecting sleeve for holding a light bulb, and from which respective electrical supply terminals project sideways, and the board also supports a pivotable lever, pivoted freely against the action of a spring, and disposed at right angles with respect to the plane of the board structure, and supported by means of a pin disposed parallel to the lateral surfaces and equipped at one end with a transverse electrically conductive pin adapted, at a travel end position at which the lever is held by means of the spring, to come into contact with a pair of electrical contacts housed transversely within a hole passing through the structure, so as to close the circuit.

Light-bulb holder for household appliances

The electrical terminal serves to receive blade connectors of the Faston type and consists of a metal plate in which at least one perforation is formed by means of a punching operation and into which project at least two oppositely inclined resiliently deformable contact tongues, adapted to snap-engage a respective Faston connector, with respective flared ends; the tongues extend in a direction away from the plane of the plate and project from a first face thereof in a converging manner such that the flared ends are disposed substantially tangentially with respect to one another and form on a second face of the plate opposite the first a V-shaped seat adapted to receive the connector and having an aperture angle lying between 75.degree. and 108.degree..
