Definitions

  • the invention relates to a storage device for storing moist material in a drum of a drying device, in particular a clothes dryer or washer dryer. Furthermore, the invention relates to a drum and a drying device for drying moist material.
  • a drying basket can be fastened in the region of the loading opening or on the door for drying sensitive objects or moist goods, in which the moist material is stored protruding into the drum space.
  • the drum rotates, so that the material to be dried can slip out of the basket due to vibrations or air flow and can be damaged by the drum rotation.
  • the exploitable volume for drying in the drum is limited.
  • EP 1 405 945 A2 and US 6,026,592 also provide storage facilities that prevent special parts to be dried from rotating together with the laundry drum. These storage devices are fixed in a stable position with the device structure, but are within the rotating drum. However, conventional drying devices with rotating drum can not be equipped with a stationary storage device without much effort.
  • a bearing device which has a base element for supporting the moist material and at least one connecting element, wherein by means of the at least one connecting element, the base element within the drum can be mounted or fastened.
  • the base element By attaching or storing the base element within the drum, almost the entire drum volume can be exploited.
  • the drum is permanently stopped and only a stream of dry air is passed through the drum to dry the wet material.
  • drying in the standing drum is good for delicate fabrics, shoes, or other small household items that can not be stored directly in the drum during drum rotation.
  • the base element is permeable to air, for example, a mesh fabric, so that even through the base element passes through an air flow to the material to be dried.
  • the base element is collapsible or foldable, so that it only needs a very small storage space outside a drying device when not in use.
  • the base element is an elastic band or has such a, so that the base member by means of attachment to the drum can be clamped within this, for example between two ribs of the drum.
  • the at least one connecting element to a flexible portion, so that simplifies the fixation or attachment of the base member within the drum.
  • a drum for a drying device in a drum for a drying device according to claim 1, at least one retaining element is provided in the interior of the drum, on which a bearing device, in particular as described above, can be supported or fastened.
  • the storage device takes through the connection with the holding element a predetermined orientation or position, for example, hanging freely in the drum, so that the drying effect is optimized.
  • One or more holding elements are particularly advantageously formed on at least one rib of the drum. Especially when the rib is a separate, mounted on the drum element, the formation of a holding element is manufacturing technology simplified. If the rib is a plastic injection-molded part, then the formation of even more complex holding elements is particularly cost-effective.
  • the holding element is a latching receptacle or an eyelet, so that a hook-shaped or latching connection element of a bearing device can be quickly suspended or latched.
  • a sensor connected to a control device is provided.
  • the drive for the drum can be controlled, so that the drum can be switched on or off separately from the operation of the dry air as a function of the control signals from the control device.
  • the separate switching on and off of the drive takes place, for example, by means of a separately operated independently of the fan motor, or by means of a coupling element between the drum and the drive motor, so that when the motor is running, the rotation of the drum is switched on or off.
  • the sensor the setting or fastening of a bearing device can be detected within the drum.
  • the sensor is arranged on the drum, adjacent to the drum or particularly advantageously on the loading door of the drying device.
  • the sensor detects the bearing device, for example, inductively, capacitively, optically or mechanically.
  • the setting of a bearing device is detected by means of a magnet arranged on the bearing means by a reed switch.
  • the storage device has a transponder and the sensor has a transceiver element which detects the presence of the transponder.
  • a transponder is designed like a security tag for goods in a department store.
  • Fig. 1A schematically shows a section through the front portion of a drum 1 of a household dryer.
  • the drum ribs 2 are heat-resistant plastic injection molded parts, which are engaged in corresponding receptacles on the circumference of the drum (not shown).
  • Two ribs 3 or passages extending approximately in the circumferential direction of the drum are provided per rib 2, whereby two bores 3 offset axially relative to one another are arranged per rib (see side view in FIG Fig. 1C ).
  • In the holes 3 hook 5 a hanging basket 6 are mounted.
  • the hooks 5 are connected via bands 4 with the top of the basket 6.
  • the basket 6 two accessible from the front and rear compartments are formed.
  • Two side parts of the basket are connected to each other via three shelves, wherein on each shelf a piece of laundry or other good to be dried can be stored.
  • a piece of laundry or other good to be dried can be stored.
  • Wollpullover 8 placed on the lower and middle floor Wollpullover 8 shown. From the upper side edges of the basket 6 are each two bands 4 with therein hooks 5 to the holes. 3
  • the floors and the side panels are formed as dimensionally stable metal mesh, the side sections between the floors hingedly connected to the floors and the side panels are foldable even at half the height between the floors. By folding the side panels between the floors, the floors can be parallel push together.
  • the so folded basket 6 requires very little space for storage. Furthermore, the collapsed basket can be easily inserted through the hatch into the drum and unfolded there, so that the drum volume is maximally used with unfolded basket.
  • the user For hanging up the basket 6, the user turns the drum 1 approximately to a position as in FIG Fig. 1A represented, wherein an asymmetrical position of the two upper ribs 2 due to the flexibility of storage by means of the bands 4 and the hook 5 is compensated.
  • the clothes dryer not shown here, in which the drum 1 is arranged, provides on the control panel a program option with which the drum rotation for the dry operation of sensitive material can be turned off. When the drum rotation is stopped, dry air is introduced into the drum by the blower, so that the material 8 to be dried is subjected to a warm air flow.
  • An alternative embodiment of the dry operation will be described below with reference to FIG Fig. 2 described.
  • the hanging basket 6 with shelves and side parts made of wire mesh and a basket with a plastic mesh can be provided, or a basket of textile side panels and floors, which are then stiffened with a wire or plastic frame while maintaining the Caribbeanfaltiana.
  • Fig. 1B shows an embodiment of the drum 1 of Fig. 1A
  • only one rib 2a is provided with staggered holes 3a.
  • the ribs 2b are formed without a bore.
  • the rib 2a is moved to the upper position and the hooks 5 in the approximately opposite trained pairs of holes, which are axially offset from one another, hung.
  • Fig. 1D shows a further embodiment of the drum 1 of Fig. 1A , here as in Fig. 1B
  • Drum ribs 2b are provided without holes.
  • a grate a board or a shelf can be used.
  • the ribs 2b in the axial direction extending grooves or offset in the axial direction arranged holes in which a network or a cloth is suspended.
  • a surface is created on which the good can be deposited.
  • Fig. 1E shows the drum 1 of Fig. 1A , in which case instead of the hanging basket 6 as a bearing device a bracket 11 is hooked with a hook 4 in the hole 3. On the bracket 11, a pants 12 is hung to dry, with the use of the bracket 11 is also suitable for drying scarves, ties or the like.
  • Fig. 2 shows a simplified block diagram of elements of a clothes dryer 100.
  • a controller 102 of the clothes dryer gives control signals to a power controller 103 which supplies power to a motor 104 depending on the desired speed.
  • the motor 104 drives a drum 101, which according to one of the above embodiments of the Fig. 1A to 1E is designed.
  • the controller 102 outputs control signals to a blower unit 110, which comprises a heating element and a blower, in order to supply warm air to the drum in dependence on the setpoint temperature.
  • About one Control panel 107 is a user of the clothes dryer 100, the desired drying temperature or the desired drying program.
  • the drum 101 is associated with a sensor 105 which supplies the sensor signal to the controller 102.
  • the sensor 105 is, for example, a transceiver that excites a transponder element on a bearing device (for example on the suspension basket 6, on the grate 9, or on the bracket 11) and detects its signal response.
  • a sensor is a reed relay arranged in one of the ribs 2 (eg at the bores 3) which outputs a signal by inserting a magnetic hook 5.
  • the controller 102 detects the signal from the sensor 105, driving of the motor 104 is prevented. At the same time the user is displayed or signaled on the control panel that a storage device has been set in the drum and thus no drum rotation is possible. Further, with concern of the signal from the sensor 105 by the controller 102, the program flow may be modified, for example, the running time for drying the stored dry matter is prolonged or the residual moisture to be reached detected with a humidity sensor is lowered. This ensures that the stored and not moving good is dried safely.
  • a locking device 106 that locking of the drum 101 prevents or inhibits rotation of the drum.
  • the latch 106 engages the drum 101 in certain angular positions that provide a favorable orientation for mounting or inserting bearings 6, 9, 11.
