Definitions

  • the invention relates according to the preamble of claim 1 an arrangement of a condensate container in a household tumble dryer and sensor system therefor, wherein the tumble dryer has a housing and a front loading door and the sensor system a first sensor for controlling the insertion of a condensate container in a receiving space and a contains second sensor for the detection of a limit level of removable for its emptying from its receiving space, canister-shaped condensate container.
  • dryers which contain a drainage-free collecting container for from a arranged in a dry air flow condensing condensate
  • the invention has for its object to provide an arrangement for the condensate tank and a sensor system of the type mentioned, for which there is essentially no special space requirement in the drying unit and can be realized inexpensively.
  • the condensate tank 5 is canister-shaped and can be provided for transport with a folding handle.
  • the arrangement of the condensate container in the interior (receiving space 15) of the loading door 6 saves space and gives the best possible access for removing the container 5 in the direction of the arrow upwards (FIG. 4).
  • the sensor system for detecting the criteria "condensate tank present or not present” and “condensate tank full or not full” and for statements about these conditions in the condensate tank 5 and in the housing 7 of the tumble dryer integrated.
  • the sensor system with at least one sensor S for the control of the insertion and the detection of a limit level 8 of his emptying from the inside of the loading door 6 ago removable, canister-shaped condensate container (5, Fig. 3 and 4)
  • the sensor S is a non-contact switch, and the sensor system includes an influenceable by the sensor S circuit arrangement (not shown) for controlling the drying program of the clothes dryer and for switching on and off an acoustic and / or visual attention signal.
  • the sensor S includes a magnetism based switch.
  • This magnetic switch is a switching system which comprises a magnetically influenced switching contact 1 and a magnet 2.
  • the magnetically influenced switching contact 1 is a reed contact and the magnet 2 is a permanent magnet.
  • the switching contact When approaching the magnet 2, ie with appropriate movement of the float 3, to which the permanent magnet 2 is fixed, the switching contact is the first closed and vice versa upon removal of the magnet 2, ie with appropriate movement of the float 3, opened.
  • the switching contact 1 is fixed in the tumble dryer, namely in the context of the feed opening 9 (FIG. 4).
  • the magnet 2 is arranged on a switch contact 1 side facing the height-movably arranged in the condensate tank 5 float 3.
  • the float 3 is guided in a cage-like vertical guide 4 on the way from bottom to top (FIG. 4) or has at least one guide housing 10 arranged in the upper part of the condensate container 5 (FIGS. 2 and 3) for detecting the maximum level 12 and for insertion control and / or a corresponding guide 11 in the lower part of the condensate container 5 for detecting the minimum level 13 and the insertion control.
  • FIG. 2 shows a schematic representation of the principle of action of a further exemplary embodiment of the sensor system according to the invention.
  • two sensors S 1 , S 2 are provided, wherein the one sensor S 1 of the level detection and the other sensor S 2 is the insertion control.
  • the circuitry required for this purpose is not shown, however, as in the case of the arrangement according to FIG. 1, it is comprehensible to the person skilled in the art.
  • the sensor S 2 must be more sensitive to the insertion control than the sensor S 1 ; because the float 3 is the re-insertion of the condensate tank 5 in the lower rest position in the cage 10 and its magnet 2 has a relatively large distance to the switch 1-2 of the sensor S 2nd The level in the container can therefore be at a height of 14 or lower; as soon as the condensate container is properly inserted into the receiving space, the magnet 2 comes into relative proximity to the switch 1-2 and closes its reed contact.
  • the float 3 As soon as the float 3 rises from the bottom of the cage 10 due to rising level, it is only guided upwards in the cage. When the level has reached the height 12, the maximum height, the magnet 2 of the float 3 gets sufficiently close to the switch 1-1 of the sensor S 1 , so that its reed contact closes. This is the signal for the controller, on the one hand to cancel the condensing and on the other hand to signal to the user of the clothes dryer, he may now but the condensate tank 5 remove and empty.
  • the two switches 1-1 and 1-2 of the two sensors S 1 and S 2 can also be accommodated in a common housing deviating from the illustrated embodiment. Furthermore, with clever circuit design, the two functions "plug-in control” and “maximum level control” can be combined in a switch 1-1.
  • the cage 10 is arranged with the float 3 for detecting the maximum level 12 and for insertion control in the upper part of the condensate container 5.
  • the cage 11 is arranged with the built-in float 3 for detecting a minimum level 13 and for insertion control in the lower part of the condensate container 5.
  • the functions "plug-in control" and "level control” can be spatially separated. If, for example, only the plug-in control has to take place in the lower part of the condensation tank 5, the only switch 1-2 of the sensor S 12 arranged there does not have to react more sensitively than the upper switch 1-1 of the level control sensor S 1 .
  • the functional reliability of the sensor system is designed by the constructive installation so that in the given position of use always a safe signal is generated.
  • a technical variation of the magnetic field strength and the manufacturing tolerances of the device parts are taken into account here.
  • An advantageous development of the invention provides that at least one of the sensors S has a hysteresis behavior for suppressing malfunctions and / or false signals due to short-term fluctuations in the condensate level.
  • a signal with the aid of the control only after a time delay.
  • This time delay can be used to - unnoticed by the operator - with switched off heating and condensate pump for a certain period of time to lower the temperature of the condenser and to interrupt the further filling of the condensate tank. Only after this intermediate cooling phase is a signal "container full" released to the outside.
  • the sensor system may include one with an inductively influenceable switching contact.
  • the necessary circuitry and design measures are familiar to the expert.
  • the float 3 can continue to carry a magnet 2 and the switches 1,1-1 and 1-2 are replaced by induction coils (not shown).
