Domestic appliance comprising a door opening system
The present invention relates to a door opening system for a domestic appliance (10) including at least one pivoting door (12), comprising at least one door hinge (14) and at least one hook mechanism (16). The hook mechanism (16) includes a hook element (26) engaged with a recess (28) in a closed state of said door (12), so that the hook element (26) and the recess (28) form a snap-in mechanism. The hook element (26) is disengaged from the recess (28) by operating a control element or said hook element (26). The door hinge (14) includes a stationary (18) and a pivoting (20) hinge part. The stationary hinge part (18) is provided for a support structure of the domestic appliance (10), while the pivoting hinge part (20) is provided for the pivoting door (12). The stationary hinge part (18) is arranged horizontally inside or at the support structure of the domestic appliance (10) and comprises a first spring element (22). A second spring element (24) is formed as separate part. The second spring element (24) is arranged at a flange or door frame enclosing a cavity or at the pivoting door (12). The first (22) and second (24) spring elements are provided for generating horizontal forces in the mounted state of the door hinge (14) at the domestic appliance (10). The first spring element (22) keeps the door (12) balanced within an outer opening angular range of said door (12). The second spring element (24) generates an opening force for the door (12) within an inner opening angular range, so that the door (12) is pushed into a partially opened state. The inner opening angular range extends between a closed and the partially opened state of the door (12). The outer opening angular range extends between the partially and a completely opened state of the door (12).
