Drum machine for treating ύοζ ~ x'extiles

The innovation relates to a drum machine for treatment of textiles, especially for drying laundry, consisting of a rotatably mounted in a stationary housing, drivable, perforated as well as a drum that can be loaded through a door located on the front wall of the housing and a fan for generating an air flow, which can be heated by a heating device, through the drum and operating devices for controlling the mentioned auxiliary units attached near the drum.

A drum dryer is already known in which the auxiliary units are arranged in the vicinity of the drum circumference, so that the fixed housing this drum is relatively narrow encloses. However, the controls are located in a control panel on the top that protrudes upwards

of the housing. This drum dryer is therefore proportionate low, but this type of construction cannot be used advantageously in any other way, since the upper side is easy to operate must remain freely accessible. Furthermore, drum dryers with two in a common housing are one above the other arranged drums known, each assigned a heating device provided on the top of the machine is. A common fan below the drums generates air flows through which are kept separate by guide walls the drums. Ea this is a twin machine, which forms an indissoluble whole. The known drum machines thus consist either of individual machines, which can be placed next to one another to save little space, or from twin machines that are only available as such are. An economic adjustment to a growing one Need can not be done with these Tronuiel machines, because either insufficient space utilization or a rough machine graduation must be accepted.

The innovation has therefore set itself the task of drum machines to be designed in such a way that the range of dryers can be increased finely and with space-saving installation.

This object is achieved by the innovation through such a design of the housing and arrangement of the auxiliary units as well the controls in and / or on the housing that the Drum machine can be placed on another machine or vice versa.

A particularly expedient training results in a further embodiment of the innovation in that the operating devices on the front wall of the housing and the auxiliary units are arranged essentially on another housing wall.

An embodiment of the innovation is shown in the drawing dargeetellt and is explained in more detail below. Show it:

Figure 1 shows the front view of two drum blocks placed one on top of the other with auxiliary units attached to the rear,

FIG. 2 shows a side view of the drum machines according to FIG. 1,

FIG. 3 the front view of two stacked one on top of the other Drum machines with auxiliary units attached above,

FIG. 4 shows the front view of two Tröffiffielmaehinen placed on top of one another with auxiliary units attached to the side.

The drum machine consists of a stationary housing 1, in the approximately square front wall 2 of which has a loading door 3 loading and unloading of one in the housing on the ethernet side 1 drum 5 rotatably mounted on friction wheels 4 and perforated on the circumference is permitted. Treating the in the drum 5 located Gutea is carried out by air, which is conveyed with the help of a fan through the drum 5 and through a heating device It is heated to a greater or lesser extent as required. All auxiliary units required for this, including the Drum drives are generally known and have therefore not been shown separately, but only as a unit 6. Of course A part of these auxiliary units 6 can also be accommodated in the housing 1. Al3 example of a heating device a steam-charged heating register has been shown, which has a steam feed line 7 and a condensate discharge. The exhaust air is discharged through an exhaust pipe 9.

Operating devices attached to the front wall 2 of the housing 1 serve to operate and control the drum machine 10 tulips in the form of a scarf. Temperature indicators, Switches or the like.

The mentioned auxiliary units 6 as well as aie operating devices 10 are arranged and aie housing cover 11 and the housing base 12 are designed so that two drum dryers directly can be placed on top of one another and provided with the necessary connections. In the embodiment of For this purpose, FIGS. 1 and 2 are the auxiliary units 6 arranged on the rear of the housing 1. Appropriately, the housing cover 11 and bottom 12 and the side walls form 13 smooth surfaces so that additional machines can be placed directly next to or on top of it. Of course Interlocking indentations and bulges or the like can also be provided without the aforementioned machine assembly to affect. A low base 14 is convenient to use both the lower and also the upper drum machine safe. If the drum machine is to be used as a stand-alone machine, a higher base are placed under, which can be set up at the same time for additional collection of the Flueen.

The in the embodiment example of Figures 1 and 2 on the back of the housing 1 arranged auxiliary units 6 can also on the housing cover 11 (Figure 3) or at the bottom of the housing base 12 or on one of the side walls 13 (Figure 4). By appropriately designing the housing 1 As well as the arrangement of the auxiliary units 6, there is also the possibility of stacking drum machines on top of one another and to provide mic the necessary connections. Farther the auxiliary units 6 can also be and fresh air ducts, steam and liquid spray devices add to. In a further development of the innovation

Washing machine is set. In this way, any number of washer-dryer combinations can be put together, from each machine is specially designed for its special purpose and therefore works with high economic efficiency.

The advantages achieved with the innovation are in particular that the drum machine can be placed on another machine in a space-saving manner or vice versa. In this way, the required Maeohine combinations can be put together as required and the required dryer capacity can be closely matched to the increasing demand without the need to increase the floor space of the operating rooms in the same way. Since each drum machine is a complete and therefore independent device, groupings can be made at any time in order to achieve the greatest possible adaptation to the respective flow of goods.
