  • intake manifold 21 has one end 21a connected by connecting conduit 16 to wash tub 6; and an opposite end 21b connected to the inlet of cooling stage 19a.
  • drying assembly 18 circulates air along drying path 22, which extends through heating stage 19b, feed manifold 20, wash tub 6 and drum 3, along connecting conduit 16, and through intake manifold 21, cooling stage 19a and ventilator 19c.
  • Dry-washing machine 1 also comprises a combination filter assembly 23, which, during the wash cycle, removes fibres, lint, and fluff from the solvent circulating along wash path 15, and, during the drying cycle, removes fibres, lint, and fluff from the air circulating along drying path 22.
  • Combination filter assembly 23 is designed to accumulate the fibres, lint, and fluff from the fluid at a predetermined location along drying path 22, so that air flows over the accumulated fibres, lint, and fluff during the drying cycle.
  • combination filter assembly 23 is so located in dry-washing machine 1 as to intercept and filter the solvent flowing along wash path 15, and, at the same time, the moisture-laden air flowing along drying path 22, and is designed so that the hot air flowing along drying path 22 flows through, and so removes accumulated solvent from, the fibres, lint, and fluff accumulated by combination filter assembly 23 during the wash cycle and the drying cycle.
  • combination filter assembly 23 accumulates further fibres, lint, and fluff partly impregnated with solvent and with a small amount of moisture.
  • the air supply to wash tub 6 draws out of drum 3 a certain amount of fibres, lint, and fluff, which gradually accumulate in combination filter assembly 23, so that the air emitted during the drying cycle removes not only the solvent impregnating the fibres, lint, and fluff accumulated during the wash cycle, but also the solvent in the fibres, lint, and fluff accumulated by combination filter assembly 23 during the drying cycle itself.
  • Combination filter assembly 23 comprises a substantially parallelepiped-shaped housing 24 fitted to annular collar 6c, and which has a top opening 25 formed in annular collar 6c, and a substantially parallelepiped-shaped inner compartment 26; and an easily removable filter 27 housed firmly inside compartment 26 of housing 24.
  • housing 24 has an inlet 28 connected by conduit 16 to wash tub 6 to receive both the solvent - before it is fed back into tank 8 - and the moisture-laden air from wash tub 6; at least a first outlet 29 connected to intake manifold 21; and a second outlet 30 connected to tank 8 by recovery conduit 14.
  • housing 24 extends downwards from annular collar 6c along an axis D, and comprises a rear wall facing the front wall of wash tub 6; a lateral wall facing the inlet 21a of intake manifold 21; and a bottom wall facing the inlet 14a of recovery conduit 14.
  • inlet 28 comprises a preferably rectangular opening formed in the rear wall of housing 24 to connect compartment 26 to conduit 16;
  • first outlet 29 comprises a rectangular opening formed in the lateral wall of housing 24 to connect compartment 26 to inlet 21a of intake manifold 21; and
  • second outlet 30 comprises a rectangular opening formed in the bottom wall of housing 24 to connect compartment 26 to inlet 14a of recovery conduit 14.
  • Filter 27 is fitted inside compartment 26 through top opening 25 ( Figure 4 ), provides for intercepting the fibres, lint, and fluff in both the solvent and the air intake immediately downstream from connecting conduit 16, and is designed to accumulate the fibres, lint, and fluff in a predetermined location enabling solvent removal by hot air flowing over the solvent.
  • filter 27 has at least one perforated wall, which intersects drying path 22 to remove fibres, lint, and fluff from the hot air.
  • filter 27 is substantially parallelepiped-shaped, and comprises a perforated front major wall 27a parallel to the longitudinal axis D, when filter 27 is fitted inside housing 24; two parallel, opposite, perforated minor lateral walls 27b on opposite sides of front major wall 27a; and a top wall 27c crosswise to major wall 27a.
  • filter 27 is open on two sides, i.e. has a substantially rectangular opening 27d formed in a rear major wall 27e opposite front major wall 27a; and a bottom opening 27f formed in the bottom lateral wall opposite top wall 27c.
  • filter 27 is fitted inside compartment 26 of housing 24 so that opening 27d at least partly faces inlet 28 of housing 24, one of perforated minor lateral walls 27b faces end 21a of the intake manifold, and opening 27f faces second outlet 30 of housing 24.
  • the holes in major wall 27a and lateral walls 27b are sized to remove the fibres, lint, and fluff from the air intake, while at the same time allowing the air intake through to intake manifold 21.
  • Filter 27 also comprises at least one perforated partition 31, which intersects wash path 15 to remove and accumulate fibres, lint, and fluff in the predetermined location, and is positioned inside filter 27 to intersect drying path 22, so that hot air flows over the accumulated fibres, lint, and fluff.
  • perforated partition 31 extends substantially crosswise to front major wall 27a, faces opening 27e, and intercepts the fibres, lint, and fluff in the solvent.
  • the filter 27 comprises a number of parallel perforated partitions 31 spaced apart along longitudinal axis D and tilted downwards at a given angle to major wall 27a.
  • perforated partitions 31 are located inside filter 27 at bottom opening 27f, i.e. in a bottom portion of filter 27, and are interposed between inlet 28 and second outlet 30 of housing 24 when filter 27 is fitted inside compartment 26 of housing 24.
  • each partition 31 The holes in each partition 31 are sized to remove the fibres, lint, and fluff from the solvent, while at the same time allowing the solvent through to recovery conduit 14.
  • Top wall 27c is substantially arc-shaped, so as to be flush with annular collar 6c, when filter 27 is fitted inside compartment 26 of housing 24, and so allow door 5 to close.
  • top wall 27c is substantially semicircular, and is designed to close the top opening 25 of housing 24 and define, when filter 27 is fitted inside compartment 26, a portion of annular collar 6c against which door 5 closes.
  • filter 27 is inserted inside compartment 26 of housing 24 through top opening 25.
  • the fluid, namely the solvent, accumulated in wash tub 6 flows gradually along connecting conduit 16 to inlet 28 of housing 24 and through perforated partition/s 31, which is/are positioned to intercept the fibres, lint, and fluff in the solvent before it is fed back into tank 8 by recovery conduit 14.
  • the drying cycle is activated to feed hot air into drum 3 via feed manifold 20 and wash tub 6.
  • the moisture-laden air in drum 3 is drawn out by intake manifold 21 along connecting conduit 16 and into compartment 26; in the course of which, the hot air flows successively through perforated partitions 31 and then through walls 27a and 27b of the filter 27.
  • solvent is advantageously evaporated from the fibres, lint, and fluff accumulated on perforated partitions 31, and the fibres, lint, and fluff in the air accumulate in perforated walls 27a and 27b of filter 27.
  • dry-washing machine 1 preferably, though not necessarily, filters the solvent by means of filtering circuit 40. More specifically, the solvent is filtered by activating two-way valve 12 to connect filtering circuit 40 to tank 8, and by activating pump 9 to circulate the solvent in tank 8 through filter 41.
  • the dry-washing machine 1 as described above has the major advantage of eliminating any contact with the fluid, namely the solvent by the user when cleaning filter 27.
  • locating filter 27 inside housing 24 prevents the user accidentally coming into contact with the solvent. That is, user access to filter 27 is only possible by opening door 5, which, in dry-washing machine 1, can only be done after filter 27 is dried and, therefore, only after all traces of solvent have been removed from filter 27.
  • filter 27 makes removal of the accumulated fibres, lint, and fluff faster and easier, in that the user only has to remove, clean, and replace one filter instead of two.
