Definitions
- the invention relates to an umbrella-type clothes dryer in which a central standpipe carries an expansion frame for the clothesline, which can be opened via an elevator line adjacent to the standpipe.
- the spreader frame has star-shaped support arms for the washing line, which are articulated on a lower sleeve surrounding the standpipe, and support arms which are articulated to the support arms and articulated on an upper sleeve surrounding the standpipe.
- the elevator line engages the lower sleeve, which can be moved along the standpipe and can be fixed in different positions on the standpipe by a releasable locking device.
- the standpipe is anchored vertically at the installation site in a vertical ground sleeve in the ground.
- the folded spreading frame and clothesline hang down along the standpipe.
- the spreader frame is carried by the upper sleeve, which is anchored to the standpipe.
- the spreader frame is drawn downwards by lowering the lower sleeve along the standpipe and folded with its support and support arms towards the standpipe.
- the knee joints connecting the support and support arms are stretched.
- the lower sleeve is located just above the floor in the area of the lower end section of the standpipe.
- the upper sleeve can be designed to be displaceable along the standpipe and can carry a locking device with which it can be anchored to the standpipe at different heights.
- the lower sleeve is raised over a longer distance along the standpipe and anchored to the standpipe. The lifting takes place via the elevator line, which is pulled laterally away from the standpipe at its actuating end.
- the expansion frame is opened and its vertical extension is shortened to less than a third.
- the clothesline is spread out and stretched by the spreading support arms. The clothesline is tensioned in the last relatively short part of the upward movement - 2 - 41619 of the lower sleeve.
- the ready-to-use tumble dryer often stops for weeks or months with the spreading frame open.
- the spreading frame is closed before dismantling the dryer.
- the anchoring of the lower sleeve is released and the expansion frame collapses.
- the lower sleeve slides down along the standpipe and the support and support arms of the expansion frame are pivoted to the standpipe.
- the lower sleeve can be anchored by a clamp acting on the standpipe or by a spring-loaded pin that locks into the holes in the standpipe, or by a spring-loaded pawl that snaps into a perforated rail or rack attached to the standpipe (DE 28 55 532 C2, GB 893 033 A).
- the clothesline is stretched by spreading apart the support arms, which project laterally from the lower sleeve and are only slightly inclined relative to the horizontal after the spreading frame has been opened.
- the support arms are spread even further apart by pulling up the lower sleeve.
- a relatively high force is required for this, which must be applied by the operator via the elevator line.
- Known tumble dryers of this type have the disadvantage that the force required to tension the clothesline is so high that the clothesline can no longer be fully tensioned, which is why the wet laundry attached to it sags and can become dirty.
- the moves - 3 - 41619 lower sleeve only at half or a quarter of the speed at which the operator pulls at the operating end of the elevator line. Only after the spreader frame has been fully opened can the force transmission of the pulley in question be used to tension the clothesline. When the spreader frame is folded, this double or four times the length of the elevator line must be pulled back into the spreader frame so that the lower sleeve can move down to its lower end position along the standpipe.
- Another disadvantage is the very long length of the elevator line, which has to be supplied when the spreader frame is open in order to avoid knots and soiling that would hinder the later folding of the spreader frame if this length of the elevator line is pulled back into the spreader frame.
- the object of the invention is to provide an improved, umbrella-like clothes dryer. This is achieved in a tumble dryer of the type mentioned at the outset in that, in addition to the releasable locking device, the lower sleeve is equipped with a power transmission which can be actuated via a tension line and contains a power transmission, which is coupled to the tension line and directed upwards when the tension line is actuated Movement step of the lower sleeve generating power transmission element has.
- This design allows the lower sleeve to be pulled up with relatively little force and very quickly in one go with the aid of the elevator line until the lower sleeve is fixed to the standpipe by its locking device when the expansion frame is opened.
- the tension line of the power transmission can be pulled once or several times in order to further raise the lower sleeve with the aid of the power transmission contained in the power transmission and thereby tension the clothesline or increase the tension in the clothesline.
- the power transmission including tension line and power transmission element, returns to the starting position.
- the amount of force transmission with which the tensioning movement of the tensioning line is converted into an upward movement of the lower sleeve in the power transmission can be due both to a low actuating force and to the size of the respective spreader frame and the number in it between the Bracket-extending and each to be exciting clothesline pieces.
- the lower sleeve is used to tension the clothesline in the opened expansion frame - 4 - 41619 by pulling on the tension line of the power transmission until the locking device of the lower sleeve fixes it in a raised position on the standpipe. Then the tensioning line of the power transmission is released and the power transmission, including tensioning line and power transmission element, returns to the starting position.
- the power transmission element coupled to it is first moved to the standpipe and supported on it. The tension on the tensioning line, which continues beyond the supporting process, is then converted by the power transmission element with the power transmission built into the power transmission in the upward movement step of the lower sleeve.
- the power transmission according to the invention can have its own housing in which the power transmission element coupled to the tension line is accommodated.
- This housing can be integrated in the lower sleeve. It can also be designed as an extension of the lower sleeve, which adjoins the lower sleeve upwards or downwards.
- a force transmission element that is movably coupled to the lower sleeve or the housing of the power transmission and movable relative to the lower sleeve by actuating the tensioning line can be provided, which is temporarily supported on the standpipe when the tensioning line is actuated and generates an upward movement step of the lower sleeve.
- the force transmission element can be designed as a two-armed lever articulated on the lower sleeve or the housing of the force transmission, from which a lever arm is moved to the standpipe when the tensioning line acting on the other lever arm is pulled. When the tension line is released, the lever is moved back into its original position by gravity. It can also be coupled to a return spring which moves it back to its starting position.
- the force transmission element can be designed as a slider which is displaceable in the lower sleeve or in the housing of the force transmission and which is coupled obliquely to the standpipe and coupled to the tension line.
- the slider When pulling the tensioning line, the slider is extended downwards, moved to the standpipe and supported on it. Then the slider supported on the standpipe converts the further pulling on the tensioning line into an upward movement step of the lower sleeve.
- a return spring coupled to the slide or the tensioning line can be provided for the return of the slide to its initial position. - 5 - 41619 hen.
- the return spring can be designed as a tension spring or as a compression spring.
- a slider which can be extended downwards and is coupled with a return spring, can also be coupled to the elevator line, with which the spreading frame is first opened and then the clothesline is stretched.
- the return spring of the slider is dimensioned so that the slider is only actuated when pulling the elevator line when the spreader frame is opened and the stretched clothesline brakes the further pulling up of the lower sleeve.
- a two-part power transmission element movably coupled to the lower sleeve or the housing of the power transmission in which the links arranged one above the other along the standpipe can be pivoted relative to one another when the tensioning line is actuated, the two-part power transmission element pivoting when the tensioning line is operated is temporarily supported with a link on the standpipe, while with its other link, which is articulated on the lower sleeve or the housing of the power transmission, produces an upward movement step of the lower sleeve.
- a two-part, spring-loaded power transmission element in which the lower link is hinged to the lower sleeve or to the housing of the power transmission and the upper link carries a claw for engagement with detents arranged on the standpipe.
- the tensioning line is actuated, the upper link with its claw is first brought into engagement with a catch arranged on the standpipe and then the lower sleeve is pulled up to the catch arranged on the standpipe.
- the two members of the power transmission element are pivoted towards each other against the force of a return spring. In the raised position, the lower sleeve is fixed to the standpipe by its locking device. After releasing the tension line, the two-part, spring-loaded power transmission element returns to its largely extended starting position.
- a two-part, spring-loaded power transmission element can also be provided, in which the upper link is articulated on the lower sleeve or on the housing of the power transmission and the lower link is designed as a pawl which can be engaged with detents provided on the standpipe.
- the tensioning line is actuated, the lower link is first brought into engagement with a catch arranged on the standpipe and then the lower sleeve is pushed upwards away from this catch.
- the two members of the power transmission element are pivoted apart against the force of a return spring.
- the lower sleeve is in the raised position by its locking device - 6 - 41619 fixed to the standpipe. After releasing the tension line, the two-part, spring-loaded power transmission element returns to its closed starting position.
- a return spring bridging the articulated connection of the two links can be provided, which biases the two links into an angled position.
- the two links can be pretensioned into an angled position by a return spring which can be supported on the standpipe in the lower sleeve or the housing of the force transmission.
- a link can be designed as a force transmission lever, which has a lever arm which projects beyond the articulated connection of the two links and on which the tensioning line engages.
- the force transmission element can have a catch which can be brought into engagement with the catches provided on the standpipe for the releasable locking device of the lower sleeve.
- the force transmission element can carry a self-locking roller that can be brought into engagement with the standpipe and, in engagement with it, blocks a downward movement of the lower sleeve.
- a slide rail cooperating with the releasable locking device of the lower sleeve and with the force transmission element of the power transmission of the lower sleeve can be provided.
- the releasable locking device of the lower sleeve and the power transmission element of the power transmission are each provided with a self-locking roller which can be brought into engagement with the slide rail and which engages with it a downward movement of the lower sleeve.
- the tension line of the power transmission can be guided over a guide element attached to one of the support arms of the expansion frame.
- the elevator line for opening the spreader frame can be designed as a tension line for actuating the power transmission, the elevator line within the spreader frame away from the lower sleeve of the standpipe - 7 - 41619 is guided upwards adjacent, is deflected at the upper sleeve and exits the expansion frame via a guide element attached to one of the support arms of the expansion frame.
- This design of the dryer comes with a single line, which is pulled several times to open the spreader frame to spread out the clothesline and then tension the clothesline with the spreader frame open.
- the lower sleeve is pulled up to the catches arranged one above the other in the upper half of the standpipe and anchored there via its locking device in one of the catches.
- the elevator line is pulled again or several times to tension the clothesline.
- the power transmission is actuated each time, which converts the pull on the elevator line into an upward movement step of the lower sleeve.
- the power transmission element of the power transmission is moved to one of the catches on the standpipe and supported there on the standpipe. Then the power transmission element converts the ongoing pulling movement of the elevator line into an upward movement of the lower sleeve, which is anchored by its locking device to a higher catch on the standpipe. Then the elevator line is released.
