Abstract

The invention relates to a medical washer/disinfector, comprising a washing chamber for receiving medical articles to be washed/disinfected, an opening for accessing the interior of the washing chamber, a door which is movable from a lowered open position to a raised stop position and then to a raised closed position. The door is associated with a first slide surface. The medical washer/disinfector also comprises a carrier arrangement vertically movable by a motor, the carrier arrangement comprising a second slide surface for enabling slidable contact with the first slide surface. A spring member extending vertically upwardly from the carrier arrangement to a connection area of the door. The door is pushed upwards by the spring member until the door reaches said raised stop position. Continued upward movement of the carrier arrangement causes the spring member to become more compressed, whereby the door moves horizontally from the raised stop position to the raised closed position.
