Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and a device for drying laundry in a device with a rotatable drum for moving the laundry, with an adjoining a drying program crease-resistant phase in which the laundry is temporarily moved and temporarily not moved.
- a crease-resistant phase is added at the end of a drying program or a drying phase.
- a drying program usually initially has a so-called heating phase, a subsequent actual drying phase and an adjoining cooling phase. During all these phases belonging to a drying program, the drum is usually rotated continuously. This also applies during the cooling phase, in which only the heating is switched off. If at the end of a drying program, the dried laundry is not immediately taken out of the drum, then creases can be fixed in the laundry. To prevent this, during a subsequent anti-crease phase, either the drum is continuously rotated or the drum is rotated intermittently.
- the laundry in the drum is repeatedly loosened, so that no creases can fix in the laundry.
- the intermittent rotation of the drum is usually done according to a fixed pattern, such as, for example, two minutes of drum standstill, followed by fifteen seconds of drum rotation. This intermittent lasts either to the end of the anti-crease phase, which can last up to three or five hours, or until the time the laundry is removed from the drum.
- a disadvantage of this anti-crease phase is the fact that the laundry is subjected to further loading by the drum movement.
- From the GB 2 079 911 A is a method for drying laundry in a device with a rotatable drum for moving the laundry, with an adjoining a drying program crease-resistant phase in which the laundry is temporarily moved and temporarily not moved.

- Patent 5,454,171 discloses a method of drying and then cooling laundry in a clothes dryer having a rotatable drum which receives the laundry. On cooling, the drum is rotated discontinuously, followed by a rest period of 5 minutes, a rotation phase of 10 seconds. At the same time, a temperature of the laundry is measured, and cooling is terminated when the temperature falls below a limit temperature considered necessary for the formation of wrinkles.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a method and an apparatus for drying laundry, which has a crease-resistant phase, in which the laundry and also the components of the device is protected, and in which the creasing is optimally avoided and the Energy consumption is lowered.
- a drying program is followed by a crease-resistant phase in which the laundry is temporarily moved and temporarily not moved.
- the laundry is only minimally moved or loosened during the anti-crease phase and thus treated very gently, wherein creasing can be optimally avoided.
- the motor for turning the drum is turned on and off less frequently, especially towards the end of the crease protection phase, the turn-on time of the drum movement is greatly reduced, so that the components for drum movement, such as motor, relays for switching on and off the engine and drum storage less stressed and thus the life and reliability of the device is increased.
- energy is saved because the duty cycle of the drum movement during and during the crease protection phase is greatly shortened overall.
- the proportion of movement can be optimally adapted to the preselected drying program or to the preselected degree of drying or the preselected type of washing.
- a "ironing dampening" drying program generally requires an approximately higher proportion of movement than a drying program "cupboard dry” or "very dry”.
- the proportion of movement can be optimally adapted to the laundry contained in the drum. For each operating state, therefore, the proportion of movement of the laundry can be minimized so that the laundry and the components of the device are conserved and the energy consumption is reduced.

Abstract
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zum Trocknen von Wäsche in einer Vorrichtung mit einer drehbaren Trommel zum Bewegen der Wäsche, mit einer sich an ein Trocknungsprogramm anschließenden Knitterschutzphase, bei der die Wäsche zeitweise bewegt und zeitweise nicht bewegt wird.The present invention relates to a method and a device for drying laundry in a device with a rotatable drum for moving the laundry, with an adjoining a drying program crease-resistant phase in which the laundry is temporarily moved and temporarily not moved.
Ein solches Verfahren und eine solche Vorrichtung gehen hervor aus der
Beim Trocknen von Wäsche mit einem Wäschetrockner, der eine drehbare Trommel zur Aufnahme der Wäsche hat, wird am Ende eines Trocknungsprogramms bzw. einer Trocknungsphase eine Knitterschutzphase angefügt. Ein Trocknungsprogramm hat üblicherweise anfänglich eine sogenannte Aufheizphase, eine sich daran anschließende eigentliche Trocknungsphase und eine sich daran anschließende Abkühlphase. Während all dieser zu einem Trocknungsprogramm gehörenden Phasen wird die Trommel üblicherweise ständig gedreht. Dies gilt auch während der Abkühlphase, bei der lediglich die Heizung abgeschaltet ist. Wird am Ende eines Trocknungsprogramms die getrocknete Wäsche nicht sofort aus der Trommel genommen, so können sich Knitter in die Wäsche fixieren. Um dies zu verhindern, wird während einer sich anschließenden Knitterschutzphase entweder kontinuierlich die Trommel weitergedreht oder die Trommel intermittierend gedreht.When drying laundry with a clothes dryer having a rotatable drum for receiving the laundry, a crease-resistant phase is added at the end of a drying program or a drying phase. A drying program usually initially has a so-called heating phase, a subsequent actual drying phase and an adjoining cooling phase. During all these phases belonging to a drying program, the drum is usually rotated continuously. This also applies during the cooling phase, in which only the heating is switched off. If at the end of a drying program, the dried laundry is not immediately taken out of the drum, then creases can be fixed in the laundry. To prevent this, during a subsequent anti-crease phase, either the drum is continuously rotated or the drum is rotated intermittently.
Durch das ständige Drehen der Trommel oder durch das intermittierende Drehen der Trommel während der Knitterschutzphase wird die in der Trommel befindliche Wäsche immer wieder aufgelockert, so dass sich keine Knitter in der Wäsche fixieren können. Das intermittierende Drehen der Trommel erfolgt üblicherweise nach einem festen Muster, wie bspw. zwei Minuten Trommelstillstand und daran anschließen fünfzehn Sekunden Trommeldrehen. Dieses Intermittieren dauert entweder bis zum Ende der Knitterschutzphase, die bis zu drei oder fünf Stunden dauern kann oder bis zu dem Zeitpunkt, an dem die Wäsche aus der Trommel entnommen wird. Nachteilig an dieser Knitterschutzphase ist die Tatsache, dass die Wäsche durch die Trommelbewegung einer weiteren Belastung ausgesetzt wird. Durch das ständige Ein- und Ausschalten wird weiterhin der Antriebsmotor und die Schaltelemente zum Ein- und Ausschalten des Antriebsmotors belastet.By constantly rotating the drum or by intermittently rotating the drum during the anti-crease phase, the laundry in the drum is repeatedly loosened, so that no creases can fix in the laundry. The intermittent rotation of the drum is usually done according to a fixed pattern, such as, for example, two minutes of drum standstill, followed by fifteen seconds of drum rotation. This intermittent lasts either to the end of the anti-crease phase, which can last up to three or five hours, or until the time the laundry is removed from the drum. A disadvantage of this anti-crease phase is the fact that the laundry is subjected to further loading by the drum movement. By the constant switching on and off Furthermore, the drive motor and the switching elements for switching on and off of the drive motor loaded.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zum Trocknen von Wäsche zur Verfügung zu stellen, die eine Knitterschutzphase hat, bei der die Wäsche und auch die Bauteile der Vorrichtung geschont wird, und bei der die Knitterbildung optimal vermieden wird und der Energieverbrauch gesenkt wird.The object of the present invention is to provide a method and an apparatus for drying laundry, which has a crease-resistant phase, in which the laundry and also the components of the device is protected, and in which the creasing is optimally avoided and the Energy consumption is lowered.
Diese Aufgabe wird bzgl. des Verfahrens jeweils durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1, 2, 3 oder 4 gelöst. Diese Aufgabe wird bzgl. der Vorrichtung durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 13 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.This object is achieved with respect to the method respectively by the features of
Bei einem Verfahren zum Trocknen von Wäsche in einer Vorrichtung mit einer drehbaren Trommel zum Bewegen der Wäsche schließt sich an ein Trocknungsprogramm eine Knitterschutzphase, bei der die Wäsche zeitweise bewegt und zeitweise nicht bewegt wird.In a method for drying laundry in a device with a rotatable drum for moving the laundry, a drying program is followed by a crease-resistant phase in which the laundry is temporarily moved and temporarily not moved.
Indem im Verlauf der Knitterschutzphase die Bewegung der Wäsche mit fortschreitender Zeit abnimmt, oder indem die Bewegung der Wäsche während der Knitterschutzphase mit Abnehmen der Temperatur der Wäsche und/oder mit Abnehmen der Restfeuchte der Wäsche abnimmt, oder indem die Bewegung der Wäsche während der Knitterschutzphase abhängig vom vorgewählten Trocknungsprogramm und/oder vom vorgewählten Trocknungsgrad und/oder der vorgewählten Wäscheart erfolgt, oder indem die Bewegung der Wäsche während der Knitterschutzphase abhängig von der durch einen Benutzer voreingestellten Wäschemenge und/oder der durch die Vorrichtung ermittelten Wäschemenge erfolgt, wird erreicht, dass die Wäsche während der Knitterschutzphase nur soviel bewegt wird, um eine Knitterbildung zu vermeiden. Dadurch wird die Wäsche während der Knitterschutzphase nur minimal bewegt bzw. aufgelockert und somit sehr schonend behandelt, wobei Knitterbildung optimal vermieden werden kann. Weiterhin wird der Motor zum Drehen der Trommel weniger häufig ein- und ausgeschaltet, insbesondere gegen Ende der Knitterschutzphase wird die Einschaltzeit der Trommelbewegung stark verringert, so dass die Bauteile zur Trommelbewegung, wie Motor, Relais zum Ein- und Ausschalten des Motors und Trommellagerung weniger beansprucht werden und damit die Lebensdauer und die Zuverlässigkeit der Vorrichtung erhöht wird. Weiterhin wird Energie gespart, da sich die Einschaltdauer der Trommelbewegung während und im Verlauf der Knitterschutzphase insgesamt stark verkürzt.By decreasing the movement of the laundry as time progresses during the anti-crease phase, or by decreasing the movement of the laundry during the anti-crease phase with decreasing the temperature of the laundry and / or decreasing the residual moisture of the laundry, or by the movement of the laundry during the anti-crease phase from the preselected drying program and / or from the preselected degree of drying and / or the preselected type of washing, or by the movement of the laundry during the anti-crease phase being dependent on the amount of laundry pre-set by a user and / or the amount of laundry determined by the device, it is achieved that the During the anti-crease phase, only so much laundry is moved to prevent creasing. As a result, the laundry is only minimally moved or loosened during the anti-crease phase and thus treated very gently, wherein creasing can be optimally avoided. Furthermore, the motor for turning the drum is turned on and off less frequently, especially towards the end of the crease protection phase, the turn-on time of the drum movement is greatly reduced, so that the components for drum movement, such as motor, relays for switching on and off the engine and drum storage less stressed and thus the life and reliability of the device is increased. Furthermore, energy is saved because the duty cycle of the drum movement during and during the crease protection phase is greatly shortened overall.
Da zu Beginn der Knitterschutzphase die Wäschetemperatur und auch die Restfeuchte noch erhöht ist, ist zu Beginn der Knitterschutzphase die Gefahr der Fixierung von Knittern in der Wäsche höher als gegen Ende der Knitterschutzphase, so dass zu Beginn der Knitterschutzphase zur optimalen Vermeidung von Knitterbildung in der Wäsche ein höherer Bewegungsanteil der Wäsche erforderlich ist als gegen Ende der Knitterschutzphase. Weiterhin kann der Bewegungsanteil optimal an das vorgewählte Trocknungsprogramm oder an den vorgewählten Trocknungsgrad oder die vorgewählte Wäscheart angepasst werden. Beispielsweise benötigt ein Trocknungsprogramm "Bügelfeucht" insgesamt einen etwa höheren Bewegungsanteil als ein Trocknungsprogramm "Schranktrocken" oder "Sehr Trocken". Weiterhin kann der Bewegungsanteil optimal an die in der Trommel befindliche Wäschemenge angepasst werden. Für jeden Betriebszustand kann daher der Bewegungsanteil der Wäsche derart minimiert werden, so dass die Wäsche und die Bauteile der Vorrichtung geschont werden und der Energieverbrauch reduziert wird.Since at the beginning of the anti-crease phase, the laundry temperature and the residual moisture is still increased, the risk of creasing in the laundry is higher at the beginning of the anti-crease phase than towards the end of the anti-crease phase, so that at the beginning of the anti-crease phase for optimal prevention of creasing in the laundry a higher proportion of movement of the laundry is required as towards the end of Anti-crease phase. Furthermore, the proportion of movement can be optimally adapted to the preselected drying program or to the preselected degree of drying or the preselected type of washing. For example, a "ironing dampening" drying program generally requires an approximately higher proportion of movement than a drying program "cupboard dry" or "very dry". Furthermore, the proportion of movement can be optimally adapted to the laundry contained in the drum. For each operating state, therefore, the proportion of movement of the laundry can be minimized so that the laundry and the components of the device are conserved and the energy consumption is reduced.
In einer vorteilhaften Ausführung werden daher zum Erreichen dieser Ziele die Bewegung der Wäsche während der Knitterschutzphase in Abhängigkeit von Messgrößen und Parametern durchgeführt, die in vorausgehenden Phasen eines Trocknungsprogramms und/oder während der Knitterschutzphase erfasst werden.In an advantageous embodiment, to achieve these goals, the movement of the laundry during the anti-crease phase is carried out as a function of measured variables and parameters which are recorded in preceding phases of a drying program and / or during the anti-crease phase.
Hierbei können auch Messgrößen und Parameter berücksichtigt werden, die während einer Aufheizphase zu Beginn eines Trocknungsprogramms und/oder während einer Abkühlphase zum Schluss eines Trocknungsprogramms erfasst werden.In this case, it is also possible to take into account measured variables and parameters which are recorded during a heating phase at the beginning of a drying program and / or during a cooling phase at the end of a drying program.

Hierzu hat die drehbar Trommel während der Knitterschutzphase Drehbewegungszeitabschnitte und Stillstandszeitabschnitte. Während der Drehbewegungszeitabschnitte der Trommel kann die Trommel in eine Drehrichtung gedreht werden und/oder reversierend in unterschiedliche Drehrichtungen gedreht werden.

Die gemäß
Mit der vorstehend dargelegten Vorrichtung zum Trocknen von Wäsche können nachstehend erläuterte Verfahrensabläufe und Verfahrensschritte durchgeführt werden.With the above-described apparatus for drying laundry, the following explained procedures and method steps can be performed.
Indem im Verlauf der Knitterschutzphase die Bewegung der Wäsche mit fortschreitender Zeit abnimmt, oder indem die Bewegung der Wäsche während der Knitterschutzphase mit Abnehmen der Temperatur der Wäsche und/oder mit Abnehmen der Restfeuchte der Wäsche abnimmt, oder indem die Bewegung der Wäsche während der Knitterschutzphase abhängig vom vorgewählten Trocknungsprogramm und/oder vom vorgewählten Trocknungsgrad und/oder der vorgewählten Wäscheart erfolgt, oder indem die Bewegung der Wäsche während der Knittersdutzphase abhängig von der durch einen Benutzer voreingestellten Wäschemenge und/oder der durch die Vorrichtung ermittelten Wäschemenge erfolgt, wird erreicht, dass die Wäsche während der Knitterschutzphase nur soviel bewegt, um eine Knitterbildung zu vermeiden. Dadurch wird die Wäsche während der Knitterschutzphase nur minimal bewegt bzw. aufgelockert und somit sehr schonend behandelt, wobei Knitterbildung optimal vermieden werden kann. Weiterhin wird der Motor zum Drehen der Trommel weniger häufig ein- und aufgeschaltet, insbesondere gegen Ende der Knitterschutzphase wird die Einschaltzeit der Trommelbewegung stark verringert, so dass die Bauteile zur Trommelbewegung, wie Motor, Relais zum Ein- und Ausschalten des Motors und Trommellagerung weniger beansprucht werden und damit die Lebensdauer und die Zuverlässigkeit der Vorrichtung erhöht wird. Weiterhin wird Energie gespart, da sich die Einschaltdauer der Trommelbewegung während und im Verlauf der Knitterschutzphase insgesamt stark verkürzt.By decreasing the movement of the laundry as time progresses during the anti-crease phase, or by decreasing the movement of the laundry during the anti-crease phase with decreasing the temperature of the laundry and / or decreasing the residual moisture of the laundry, or by the movement of the laundry during the anti-crease phase from the preselected drying program and / or the preselected degree of drying and / or the preselected type of washing, or by the movement of the laundry during the Knittersdutzphase depending on the set by a user amount of laundry and / or the amount of laundry determined by the device, it is achieved that the During the anti-crease phase, the laundry moves only so much to avoid creasing. As a result, the laundry is only minimally moved or loosened during the anti-crease phase and thus treated very gently, wherein creasing can be optimally avoided. Furthermore, the motor for turning the drum is switched on and off less frequently, especially towards the end of the anti-crease phase, the on-time of the drum movement is greatly reduced, so that the components for drum movement, such as motor, relays for switching on and off the engine and drum bearing less stressed and thus the life and reliability of the device is increased. Furthermore, energy is saved because the duty cycle of the drum movement during and during the crease protection phase is greatly shortened overall.
Da zu Beginn der Knitterschutzphase die Wäschetemperatur und auch die Restfeuchte noch erhöht ist, ist zu Beginn der Knitterschatzphase die Gefahr der Fixierung von Knittern in der Wäsche höher als gegen Ende der Knitterschutzphase, so dass zu Beginn der Knitterschutzphase zur optimalen Vermeidung von Knitterbildung in der Wäsche ein höherer Bewegungsanteil der Wäsche erforderlich ist als gegen Ende der Knittersdutzphase. Weiterhin kann der Bewegungsanteil optimal an das vorgewählte Trocknungsprogramm oder an den vorgewählten Trocknungsgrad oder die vorgewählte Wäscheart angepasst werden. Beispielsweise benötigt ein Trocknungsprogramm "Bügelfeucht" insgesamt einen etwa höheren Bewegungsanteil als ein Trocknungsprogramm "Schranktrocken" oder "Sehr Trocken". Weiterhin kann der Bewegungsanteil optimal an die in der Trommel befindliche Wäschemenge angepasst werden. Für jeden Betriebszustand kann daher der Bewegungsanteil der Wäsche derart minimiert werden, so dass die Wäsche und die Bauteile der Vorrichtung geschont werden und der Energieverbrauch reduziert wird.Since at the beginning of the anti-crease phase, the washing temperature and the residual moisture content is still higher, the risk of creasing in the laundry is higher at the beginning of the creasing phase than at the end of the anti-crease phase, so that at the beginning of the anti-crease phase for optimal prevention of creasing in the laundry a higher proportion of movement of the laundry is required as towards the end of Knittersdutz phase. Furthermore, the proportion of movement can be optimally adapted to the preselected drying program or to the preselected degree of drying or the preselected type of washing. For example, a "ironing dampening" drying program generally requires an approximately higher proportion of movement than a drying program "cupboard dry" or "very dry". Furthermore, the movement share optimally adapted to the amount of laundry in the drum. For each operating state, therefore, the proportion of movement of the laundry can be minimized so that the laundry and the components of the device are conserved and the energy consumption is reduced.
Daher kann zum Erreichen dieser Ziele die Bewegung der Wäsche während der Knitterschutzphase in Abhängigkeit von Messgrößen und Parametern durchgeführt werden, die in vorausgehenden Phasen eines Trocknungsprogramms und/oder während der Knitterschitzphase erfasst werden.Therefore, to accomplish these goals, the movement of the laundry during the anti-crease phase may be performed in response to metrics and parameters sensed in previous phases of a drying program and / or during the wrinkle phase.
Hierbei können auch Messgrößen und Parameter berücksichtigt werden, die während einer Aufheizphase zu Beginn eines Trocknungsprogramms und/oder während einer Abkühlphase zum Schluss eines Trocknungsprogramms erfasst werden.In this case, it is also possible to take into account measured variables and parameters which are recorded during a heating phase at the beginning of a drying program and / or during a cooling phase at the end of a drying program.
Zum Erreichen der vorstehenden Ziele können als Messgrößen und als Parameter insbesondere die Wäschemasse und/oder die Aufheizdauer und/oder die Wäschefeuchtigkeit und/oder der Wäschefeuchtigkeitsverlauf und/oder Wäscheleitwert und/oder der Verlauf des Wäscheleitwerts und/oder der Feuchtigkeitsgehalt und/oder der Feuchtigkeitsverlauf und/oder die Temperatur der Wäsche und/oder der Temperaturverlauf der Wäsche und/oder der Temperatur der Trocknungsluft und/oder der Temperaturverlauf der Trocknungsluft in der Trommel des Wäschetrockners und/oder der Vergleich von Feuchtigkeitsgehalt und/oder Feuchtigkeitsverlauf und/oder der Temperatur der Trocknungsluft und/oder der Temperaturverlauf der Trocknungsluft in der Trommel des Wäschetrockners zwischen Eintritt in die Trommel und Austritt aus der Trommel und/oder die Zeitdauer bis zum Erreichen eines Trockenziels verwendet werden.In order to achieve the above objects, the measured quantities and parameters may be, in particular, the laundry mass and / or the heating duration and / or the laundry moisture and / or the laundry moisture course and / or laundry conductivity value and / or the course of the laundry conductivity value and / or the moisture content and / or the moisture profile and / or the temperature of the laundry and / or the temperature profile of the laundry and / or the temperature of the drying air and / or the temperature profile of the drying air in the drum of the tumble dryer and / or the comparison of moisture content and / or moisture and / or the temperature of Drying air and / or the temperature profile of the drying air in the drum of the tumble dryer between entry into the drum and exit from the drum and / or the time taken to reach a dry target.
Hierzu hat die drehbar Trommel während der Knitterschutzphase Drehbewegungszeitabschnitte und Stillstandszeitabschnitte. Während der Drehbewegungszeitabschnitte der Trommel kann die Trommel in eine Drehrichtung gedreht werden und/oder reversierend in unterschiedliche Drehrichtungen gedreht werden. Die Dauer einer Knittersdutzphase beträgt bevorzugt ein bis fünf Stunden.For this purpose, the rotatable drum during the anti-crease phase rotational movement periods and downtime periods. During the rotational movement periods of the drum, the drum can be rotated in one direction of rotation and / or reversely rotated in different directions of rotation. The duration of a Knittersdutzphase is preferably one to five hours.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführung ist die Dauer der Knitterschutzphase in vier Zeitabschnitte unterteilt, wobei in einem ersten Zeitabschnitt die Bewegungsanteile zwischen 20% und 90% und in einem zweiten Zeitabschnitt die Bewegungsanteile zwischen 10% und 70% liegen und in einem dritten Bewegungsabschnitt die Bewegungsanteile zwischen 1% und 60% liegen und in einem vierten Zeitabschnitt die Bewegungsanteile zwischen 1% und 30% liegen. Insbesondere kann in einem ersten Zeitabschnitt die Trommelbewegung für 104 s ausgeschaltet und für 16 s eingeschaltet sein, und in einem zweiten Zeitabschnitt die Trommelbewegung für 284 s ausgeschaltet und für 16 s eingeschaltet sein und in einem dritten Zeitabschnitt die Trommelbewegung für 584 s ausgeschaltet und für 16 s eingeschaltet sein und einem vierten Zeitabschnitt die Trommelbewegung für 584 s ausgeschaltet und für 16 s eingeschaltet sein.In a preferred embodiment, the duration of the anti-crease phase is subdivided into four time segments, wherein in a first time segment the motion components are between 20% and 90% and in a second time segment the motion components are between 10% and 70% and in a third movement segment the motion components between 1 % and 60% lie in a fourth period of time, the movement shares between 1% and 30%. In particular, in a first period of time the drum movement can be switched off for 104 s and switched on for 16 s and in a second time period the drum motion is off for 284 s and on for 16 s and in a third time period the drum motion is turned off for 584 s and turned on for 16 s and a fourth time period the drum motion off for 584 s and for 16 s to be on.
Bei einem Verfahren zum Trocknen von Wäsche in einer Vorrichtung mit einer drehbaren Trommel (2) zum Bewegen der Wäsche ist im Anschluss an ein Trocknungsprogramm eine Knittersdntzphase vorgesehen, bei der die Wäsche zeitweise bewegt und zeitweise nicht bewegt wird. Diese Knitterschutzphase dient dazu, das Fixieren von Knittern in der Wäsche durch regelmäßiges Auflockern der Wäsche zu vermeiden. Um Energie einzusparen und um die Wäsche und auch die Vorrichtung zu schonen wird die Wäsche im Verlauf der Knitterschutzphase minimal bewegt, sodass eine Knitterbildung gerade vermieden wird.In a method for drying laundry in a device with a rotatable drum (2) for moving the laundry, a knitting phase is provided following a drying program in which the laundry is temporarily moved and temporarily not moved. This anti-crease phase serves to prevent the fixing of wrinkles in the laundry by regular loosening of the laundry. In order to save energy and to protect the laundry and the device, the laundry is minimally moved in the course of the anti-crease phase, so that creasing is just avoided.
