Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Wäschetrockner mit einer an einem Tragteil angeordneten Kohlekontakthalteranordnung bei der ein Kohlekontakt auf der Längsachse seiner Aufnahme in radialer Richtung der drehbar gelagerten Wäschetrommel gegen Federkraft geführt verschiebbar angeordnet ist, wobei die Längsachse der Aufnahme unter einem Winkel α zur senkrechten Querschnittsebene der Wäschetrommel verläuft und wobei am Tragteil eine Rastaufnahme mit einem Steckkontakt angeordnet ist, der mit dem Kohlekontakt über eine Litze verbunden ist.The invention relates to a clothes dryer with a arranged on a support member Kohlkontakthalteranordnung in which a carbon contact on the longitudinal axis of its recording in the radial direction of the rotatably mounted laundry drum against spring force slidably disposed, wherein the longitudinal axis of the receptacle at an angle α to the vertical cross-sectional plane of the laundry drum and wherein on the support member a latching receptacle is arranged with a plug contact, which is connected to the carbon contact via a stranded wire.

Ein derartiger Wäschetrockner ist aus der EP 1 770 201 A1 bekannt. Um in dem Gehäuse des Wäschetrockners eine Wäschetrommel mit möglichst großem Radius unterzubringen, sind weder oberhalb noch unterhalb auf der vertikalen Achse der Wäschetrommel Bauteile platziert, die einer maximalen Volumenausnutzung entgegenstehen. Die Kohlekontakthalteranordnung ist bei dieser Ausführung schrägstehend bezüglich einer vertikal oder horizontal verlaufenden Bezugsebene des Wäschetrockners montiert, wodurch die Unterbringung der Kohlekontakthalteranordnung in einem toten Winkel des Wäschetrocknervolumens ermöglicht wird. Die Zeichnung zeigt eine Anordnung der Kohlekontakthalteranordnung im unteren seitlichen Bereich der Wäschetrommel. Eine Kohlekontakthalteranordnung, die für eine solche Anordnung geeignet ist, ist aus der EP 1 626 479 B1 bekannt.Such a tumble dryer is from the EP 1 770 201 A1 known. To accommodate a laundry drum with the largest possible radius in the housing of the tumble dryer, components are placed neither above nor below on the vertical axis of the laundry drum, which preclude a maximum volume utilization. The carbon contact holder assembly in this embodiment is mounted obliquely with respect to a vertically or horizontally extending reference plane of the clothes dryer, thereby allowing the accommodation of the carbon contact holder assembly in a blind spot of the tumble dryer volume. The drawing shows an arrangement of the carbon contact holder assembly in the lower side region of the laundry drum. A carbon contact holder assembly which is suitable for such an arrangement is known from US 5,156,367 EP 1 626 479 B1 known.

Aus der DE 44 37 635 C2 ist ein Träger für die Kohlekontakthalteranordnung gezeigt der an einer Tragkonstruktion des Gehäuses mittels Schraubverbindungen fixiert ist. Die Kohlekontakthalteranordnung ist für die Aufnahme von zwei gegeneinander isoliert angeordneten Kohlekontakten ausgebildet und im oberen seitlichen Bereich der Wäschetrommel positioniert. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass die Kohlekontakte im Wartungsfall gut zugänglich im Gehäuse angeordnet sind. Zur sicheren Befestigung der Kohlekontakthalteranordnung an der Tragkonstruktion des Gehäuses ist eine Schraubverbindung vorgesehen. Diese Ausführung weist jedoch den Nachteil auf, dass es bei der Montage des Trägers bedingt durch das Anziehen der Schrauben zu einem Versatz der Kohlekontakte zu den Schleifkontaktbändern auf dem Trommelumfang kommen kann. Dies hat falsche oder gar keine Restfeuchtemessungen zur Folge. Ein weiterer Nachteil dieser Ausführung liegt in der Führung der Litzen zu den Kohlekontakten, welche den Montageaufwand der Kohlekontakthalteranordnung erhöht.From the DE 44 37 635 C2 a carrier for the carbon contact holder assembly is shown which is fixed to a support structure of the housing by means of screw connections. The carbon contact holder arrangement is designed to receive two carbon contacts arranged in isolation against each other and positioned in the upper lateral region of the laundry drum. This has the advantage that the carbon contacts are arranged easily accessible in the housing during maintenance. For secure attachment of the carbon contact holder assembly to the support structure of the housing, a screw connection is provided. However, this embodiment has the disadvantage that it may come to an offset of the carbon contacts to the sliding contact bands on the drum circumference during assembly of the carrier due to the tightening of the screws. This results in incorrect or no residual moisture measurements. Another disadvantage of this embodiment is the leadership of the strands to the carbon contacts, which increases the assembly cost of Kohlekontakthalteranordnung.

Aus der DE 10 2006 005 786 A1 ist ein Wäschetrockner bekannt, bei dem die Aufnahme für die Kohlekontakte bzw. das Tragteil hierfür mit einem schwenkbaren und federbelasteten Hebel am Befestigungsabschnitt gelagert ist. Dieser Aufbau ist aufgrund der vielen, beweglichen Teile aufwändig, wobei bei der Montage auf eine exakte Positionierung geachtet werden muss.From the DE 10 2006 005 786 A1 a tumble dryer is known in which the receptacle for the carbon contacts or the supporting part for this purpose with a pivotable and spring-loaded lever on Mounting section is mounted. This structure is complicated due to the many moving parts, with care must be taken during assembly to an exact positioning.

Ferner kann es passieren, dass die Kontaktkohlen im Laufe der Zeit von ihrer vorbestimmten Bahn abweichen, wenn die Hebelgelenke verschlissen sind.Further, it may happen that the contact carbons deviate from their predetermined path over time when the lever joints are worn.

Der Erfindung stellt sich somit das Problem, ein Tragteil für eine Kohlekontakthalteranordnung derart auszubilden, dass eine exakte Positionierung an der Tragkonstruktion des Gehäuses möglich ist und der Montageaufwand verringert wird.The invention thus raises the problem of forming a support member for a carbon contact holder assembly such that an exact positioning of the support structure of the housing is possible and the assembly cost is reduced.
