Definitions

  • the invention relates to a laundry drying apparatus having a process air duct which opens into a drum housing and is provided for guiding process air and for discharging condensate water from a condensation device into the drum housing.
  • washing machine or dishwashing machine designed for drying, in particular a laundry drying apparatus, in which machine a condenser is provided which consists of a substantially from bottom to top moist process air through Ström ble hollow body.
  • this condenser is flushed with tap water via a valve that can be switched in one cycle.
  • a particular annular spoiler lip is provided in the supply air of the condenser, at which forms a held in the cycle pauses of the process air flow water ring.
  • the process air cycle of a clothes dryer is typically formed by process air blower, heating channel, laundry drum and condenser.
  • the condenser can be water or air cooled.
  • the air inlet into the laundry drum is usually located in the door area above a sight glass and the air outlet from the laundry drum is located in the drum housing, d. h., On a drum shell or a drum rear wall. This air outlet simultaneously serves as condensate or cooling water entering the drum from the above-arranged condenser. From the
  • a clothes drying machine including an air or water cooled washer dryer or a separate clothes dryer.
  • flow-optimized air paths for the process air should be provided. This is generally achieved in that an optimized water flow minimizes the flow resistance for the process air in the air inlet region of the condenser.
  • the laundry drying apparatus is equipped with a process air duct which opens into a drum housing and is provided for guiding process air and for draining condensate water from a condenser (and possibly cooling water) into the drum housing.
  • the condenser is mounted above the process air duct or this section thereof, in which case the process air pipe serves as a downpipe to the drum housing.
  • From the process air pipe leads at least one water discharge channel.
  • the water discharge channel By means of the water discharge channel, a part of the water guided in the process air duct can be discharged into the drum housing before its mouth, so that less water is available over the length of the process air duct, which could hinder a process air flow.
  • a process air duct designed in this way is optimized for flow and thus consumption.
  • the water drainage channel is not limited to carrying only water, but may also be able to carry air, depending on the diameter and structural design.
  • the at least one water discharge channel discharges from a region of high water swirling, since here a water removal can bring about a particularly great reduction of the flow resistance.
  • the at least one water drainage channel is connected to a drainage pump, in particular to the drainage pump.
  • the at least one water discharge channel is connected to a downpipe to the drum housing without providing a special pump or represents such, in particular if a water supply is interposed to prevent an air flow generated by the water discharge channel .
  • a water receiving area is provided at an orifice of the water discharge channel in the process air duct.
  • the at least one water discharge channel with respect to a direction of a process air flow is arranged so that by means of the process air flow in the process air duct water is pressed into the water discharge channel.
  • a water discharge through the water discharge channel is increased and thus a process airflow resistance is reduced particularly effectively.
  • the process air duct has an at least partially curved mouth portion which opens into the drum housing, wherein the at least one water discharge channel from the process air duct at the level of the mouth opening or lower goes off.
  • a center point of the outlet opening of the process air channel in the drum housing and a center of a discharge opening of a water discharge channel are offset in height from one another in the process air channel. Due to the height or height difference, the pressure of the process air can be adjusted to the running water.
  • a hole axis of the mouth opening of the process air channel into the drum housing and a hole axis of the discharge opening of a water discharge channel are offset in height from one another. It is further preferred that the at least one water discharge channel goes away from the curved pipe section of the process air pipe, since here strong water vortices typically form.
  • a diameter of the process air duct at least in the region of its mouth opening into the drum housing and a diameter of the water discharge channel in the region of its drain opening a ratio of about 2: 1 to 1: 1, or even more, to each other exhibit.
  • the water discharge channel is connected via a water mask with the drum housing.
  • a particularly preferred variant of the laundry drying device according to the invention is characterized in that the process air duct has a distributor which adjoins a cooler, the water drainage duct being connected to the distributor.
  • the cooler serves to condense out moisture from the flowing process air
  • the distributor connecting the process air duct to the cooler under any necessary deflection of the process air and adjustment between different flow cross sections while ensuring a largely uniform flow to the radiator. It makes sense to design the arrangement of manifold and radiator so that at least a portion of the condensate formed in the radiator flows counter to the manifold and thus the inflowing process air.
  • the water discharge channel thus appears to be a particularly effective means of collecting the condensate that has reached the distributor and discharging it in a controlled manner.
  • the distributor is arranged vertically below the cooler and has a sloping wall closing it vertically downwards, the water discharge channel opening into the distributor in the wall.
