Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a laundry drier particularly of the type without humidity condenser and having a rotating drum.
  • Known domestic laundry driers are constituted by a supporting frame or cabinet having a rotating drum containing the laundry and having an air circulation system.
  • the programmed rotation of the drum stirs the laundry which is dried by the air circulation system.
  • the air circulation system comprises an exhaust fan which sucks air from the outside and an electric resistance that heats that air.
  • the heated air enters the drum where it crosses the laundry drawing out humidity.
  • Air is then let out of the drum, it passes through a filter and is discharged outside.
  • the exhausted air outlet is located in the lower part of the back of the drier; it is therefore necessary either to move the drier at a distance from the wall or to provide an air passage in the wall, to let the air out of the drier.
  • EP-A-0108976 discloses a laundry dryer having an air outlet provided at a small distance from the wall due to the rear-projecting parts of its rear side.
  • some driers have been provided with two or three air outlets, located in different places of the cabinet and constituted by T-shaped or cross-shaped pipings inside the cabinet.
  • the aim of the present invention is to provide a drier having such an exhaust air outlet system as to allow a complete freedom in placing the drier in the domestic environment.
  • an object of the invention is to provide a machine having a constructively simple exhaust system and such as not to significantly affect the global cost.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a drier that can be easily placed in the domestic environment with no limitations and above all with the possibility of changing its place easily.
  • the drier according to invention comprises a cabinet 2 supporting and containing the internal elements.
  • the cabinet 2 has the usual prismatic configuration and comprises a back side 3, adapted to be put against a wall 4 of a room, and sides 5 and 6 adjacent to the back side 3.
  • the back side 3 has a recess 7 having a substantially rectangular section and open to sides 5 and 6.
  • the recess 7 has a vertical side 8, substantially parallel to the back side 3, on which there is an exhaust air outlet 10.
  • the recess 7 allows to place the cabinet 2 against a wall 4 letting the exhaust air free to flow from the lateral sides of the cabinet.
  • the laundry drier achieves the intended aim and objects, allowing the exhaust air to flow out freely and, at the same time, a complete freedom in placing the cabinet in the room.
  • An advantage of the invention resides in its constructive simplicity that makes it unnecessary the use of t-shaped, cross-shaped pipings or similar to convey the air in the desired direction.
  • the laundry drier may have numerous modifications and variations, all within the inventive concept; furthermore, all the details may be substituted with technically equivalent elements.
  • the materials employed, as well as the dimensions, may be any according to the specific needs and the state of the art.
