Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Waschmaschine oder eine Wäschetrocknungsmaschine mit einer drehbaren, die Wäsche aufnehmenden Trommel (1), an deren Trommelmantel (2) etwa rippenförmige Mitnehmer (3) zum zumindest teilweisen Umführen der Wäsche angeordnet sind. Um eine intensivere mechanische Behandlung der Wäsche zu erzielen, weisen die Mitnehmer (3) wenigstens zwei in Drehrichtung (D) der Trommel (1) voneinander beabstandete Abschnitte (3a, 3b) auf, die derart wirksam sind, dass der in Drehrichtung (D) betrachtet hintere Abschnitt (3b) zumindest einen Teil der an einer Ablöseposition (P) befindlichen Wäsche am Trommelmantel (2) hält.

Figure 00000001
The invention relates to a washing machine or a laundry drying machine with a rotatable drum (1) which receives the laundry and on the drum jacket (2) of which approximately rib-shaped drivers (3) are arranged for at least partially moving the laundry. In order to achieve a more intensive mechanical treatment of the laundry, the drivers (3) have at least two sections (3a, 3b) spaced apart from one another in the direction of rotation (D) of the drum (1), which are effective in such a way that the direction of rotation (D) considered rear section (3b) holds at least part of the laundry located at a detachment position (P) on the drum jacket (2).
