Machine for washing objects and method for the hydraulic and mechanical connection of a trolley carrying objects to be washed to a feed circuit of a washing liquid for a machine for washing objects
A device according to the present invention can be used for the hydraulic and mechanical connection of a distributor circuit of washing liquid of a trolley carrying objects to be washed to a feed circuit of a washing liquid for a washer machine for objects. The washer machine provides a washing chamber in which to position the trolley which has at least a lateral wall with respect to the direction of insertion of the trolley into the washing chamber. The device comprises a connection member of the distributor circuit, a corresponding delivery or coupling mouth of the feed circuit provided on said lateral wall and at least a connection bushing associable on one side to the connection member of the distributor circuit and on the other side to a corresponding delivery or coupling mouth of the feed circuit that faces inside a washing chamber of the washer machine, so as to determine the mechanical and hydraulic connection between feed circuit and distributor circuit. The device comprises at least an actuator unit that selectively cooperates with said at least one connection bushing, and is configured to act in a first drive direction. The cooperation between actuator unit and said at least one connection bushing is determined by means of a motion conversion mechanism, associated both with the actuator unit and also with said at least one connection bushing, which is configured to transform the action of the actuator unit in the first direction into an alternate movement of said at least one connection bushing in a second drive direction from and toward the trolley, different from said first direction.
