Display device for electrically operated domestic appliances

摘要

According to the main patent, a display device is arranged in the panel body 2 for a program display which runs parallel to a viewing window 6 in a panel 5, and said display device contains a drive having a toothed rod (rack) and a sliding pointer 8. When the toothed rod is in one limit position, a gear wheel pinion 17 which is arranged on a rocker 19 which can be deflected disengages from the tooth system 16 of the toothed rod and the latter is pushed back into its original position, together with the sliding pointer, by a restoring spring 26. The present improvement to the subject matter of the main patent comprises a lever 25, which is held in a sprung manner and is supported on a bearing journal 31 of the panel body 2 such that it can rotate, engaging in the thrust path of the toothed rod 7 for audible indication, which lever 25 can be deflected into the original position by the toothed rod in the course of the return movement and operates a bell 34 or the like at the program end. <IMAGE>
