Definitions

  • the invention relates to a seal for a tumble dryer, which is arranged in the gap between an annular fixed component with a coaxial with the rotating drum aligned sealing surface and an annular sealing surface of the rotating drum and carries a drum facing textile coating.
  • Such a seal for the drum of a tumble dryer is from the DE 199 07 602 C2 known.
  • the seal is arranged in the gap between an annular stationary housing part with a coaxial with the rotating drum aligned sealing surface and an annular sealing surface of the rotating drum and consists of a profile-like shaped support ring with a textile covering.
  • the profile of the support ring is formed in cross-section L-shaped, wherein the arranged on the coaxial with the rotating drum leg carries the textile covering.
  • the seal fills the radial gap between the rotating drum and the stationary housing part in this area.
  • Another seal for a tumble dryer is from the DE 17 10 551 B known.
  • the drum is mounted in the front area via a mounted on the fixed housing part on the front wall flange and a ring arranged around the feed opening of the drum bearing ring.
  • the seal consists of an annular pressing member which is secured to the fixed housing part, as well as a felt ring, which is glued to the radially outer wall of the flange.
  • the axially acting seal is arranged in the gap between the rear drum front side and fixed housing wall.
  • the seal consists of a tubular rubber seal in the interior of which a hollow chamber is formed and which carries a felt ring.
  • the felt ring is mounted in a receiving groove of the rubber seal. In this seal arrangement, however, the relatively large sealing surface of the felt ring also adversely affects the start-up behavior of the drum.
  • the invention thus raises the problem of designing a sealing arrangement for the gap between the fixed component and the rotating drum, with which greater tolerance differences are to be compensated for and the start-up behavior of the drum is improved while the sealing effect remains the same.
  • the achievable with the present invention consist in particular in the high tolerance compensation in the gap by the arrangement of a rubber ring with a hollow chamber and in the special design of the sealing lips, which are interconnected by a support web and enclose the hollow chamber of the rubber ring.
  • the hollow chamber advantageously has an approximately triangular cross-section.
  • the sealing lips, which enclose the hollow chamber together with the support web, are advantageously arranged in an angle range between 30 ° and 50 ° to each other.
  • the support web connects the sealing lips arranged at an angle to each other, so that an approximately triangular hollow profile is formed.
  • the support bar is advantageously formed with a bending zone.
  • FIG. 1 An embodiment of the invention is in the drawing FIG. 1 shown purely schematically and will be described in more detail below.
  • FIG. 1 is the rotating drum of a clothes dryer designated 1 and shown in fragmentary form.
  • the drum 1 is mounted in a manner not shown in the region of the front side filling opening.
  • the radial gap between the rotating drum 1 and the fixed annular member 2 is sealed by means of the seal 3.
  • the seal 3 is formed as a rubber ring and has a hollow chamber 4.
  • the hollow chamber 4 is surrounded by two approximately v-shaped sealing lips 5, 6 and a sealing lips 5, 6 connecting at their free ends supporting web 7.
  • the profile of the seal 3 has an approximately triangular cross-section.
  • the sealing lips 5, 6, which enclose the hollow chamber 4 together with the support web 7, are advantageously arranged in an angle range between 30 ° and 50 ° to each other.
  • the support web 7 connects the angularly arranged sealing lips 5, 6, so that an approximately triangular hollow profile is formed.
  • the support web 7 is formed with a bending zone 8.
  • the sealing profile is attached to the fixed annular member 2 via an extended portion 5 ', which projects beyond the free end of the first sealing lip 5 also.
  • the second sealing lip 6 carries the textile covering 9, which forms the sealing surface to the rotating drum 1.
  • the textile covering 9 is sewn in the example shown in the region of the seam line 10 with the sealing profile.
  • the seam line 10 is in the region of the abutting Sealing lips 5, 6 or at the base of the V-shaped arrangement.
  • the covering 9 can also be fixed on the sealing profile by other suitable types of fastening (eg gluing).
  • fastening eg gluing
  • the sealing lips 5, 6 are pressed together slightly, so that the textile coating 9 comes under pretension on the drum 1 to the plant.
  • the bending zone 8 of the support web 7 supports the spring action of the sealing profile.
