- a heat pump dryer which additionally comprises an internal heat exchanger to completely vaporize liquid residues or pots in the vaporous refrigerant in the low-pressure line section.
- the EP 0 521 298 A2 discloses heat exchanger devices for compressed air systems in which heat is released from a refrigerant line to the air.
- the invention thus has the object to provide a tumble dryer with an efficient heat pump.
- the advantage achieved with the invention is that less so-called waste heat from the heat pump circuit must be removed, so that additional heat exchanger in the refrigerant circuit for cooling are no longer necessary.
- the refrigerant circuit requires less space, so that a particularly compact arrangement is made possible here.
- the energy used for the drying process is used more efficiently, so that the dryer emits less heat into the installation room, which is particularly desirable in living spaces.
- the heat pump device in the refrigerant circuit comprises an inner heat exchanger, which is adapted to provide a heat transfer of a high-pressure line section to a pressurized line section.
- a line section can also be formed by the condenser itself.
- the inner heat exchanger causes the usable enthalpy difference between the pressure side of the compressor and the heat exchanger acting as a heat exchanger of the condenser is greater.
- the usable enthalpy difference between the throttle input and the compressor input increases. This makes the cold side colder and the warm side warmer, compared to a heat pump without an internal heat exchanger. This increases the effectiveness of the heat pump.
- the line sections forming the heat transfer are in direct contact, without an air gap being present between them.
- the inner heat exchanger is formed by providing a heat transfer from a line section between the condenser and the throttle to a line section between the evaporator and the compressor.
- the internal heat exchanger can be produced by providing heat transfer from a line section between the compressor and the condenser to a line section between the throttle and the evaporator.
- the inner heat exchanger consists of a wiring harness which comprises the high-pressure line section and the low-pressure line section.
- the tube forming the inner heat exchanger are summarized as a wiring harness.
- the wiring harness can then be shaped accordingly, as permitted by the space inside the device housing.
- the two line sections are wrapped around one another within the inner heat exchanger for providing a defined contact surface of the line walls for heat transfer.
- the pronounced contact surfaces improve the heat transfer from the warmer high-pressure line section to the colder low-pressure line section.
- the inner heat exchanger is formed in that the low-pressure line section extends within the high-pressure line section.
- the colder low-pressure line section is at least partially enclosed or flowed around by the warmer refrigerant.
- the low-pressure line section is arranged coaxially within the high-pressure line section.
- the cooler low-pressure line section which is colder than the high-pressure line section, is completely bypassed by the warmer refrigerant, so that an optimum heat transfer of the refrigerant is provided between these two line sections.
- the inner heat exchanger is designed as a spirally wound wiring harness.
- a long wiring harness with the high-pressure and low-pressure pipe sections contained therein can be accommodated quite compactly in a confined space.
- no abrupt deflections of the refrigerant take place here, so that the inner heat exchanger in this form forms a low flow resistance for the refrigerant.
- the inner heat exchanger is formed as a serpentine-shaped wiring harness.
- This design is particularly compact and small-scale run. Although this results in an increased flow resistance at the numerous deflections, but can be neglected at a slowed flow velocity of the resistance.
- the low-pressure line section is led to the line section of the condenser in heat-conducting contact to provide the inner heat exchanger. This eliminates the previously separately formed inner heat exchanger, which is now integrated in the compact block of the condenser.
- the heat-conductive contact is provided by means of ribs or fins, which are connected in heat-conducting manner with the line section in the condenser.
- the ribs or fins are already present in the condenser to increase the heat-superior surface to the process air flow, so that this embodiment is particularly easy to implement in a tumble dryer.
- fins or fins for heat dissipation are attached to the wall of the high-pressure pipe section, thereby increasing the surface area of the outer pipe section, thereby improving the heat release to the ambient air from the dryer housing. This causes a so-called desuperheating of the refrigerant, since the refrigerant frequently heats up continuously during the drying process until excess heat has to be removed from the refrigerant circuit.
- the slats are arranged in blocks, which are provided with openings for the passage of the inner heat exchanger forming the wiring harness. This facilitates the manufacture of the internal heat exchanger.

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Wäschetrockner, umfassend eine in einem Gehäuse angeordneten, mittels eines Motors antreibbaren, über eine horizontale oder geneigten Achse drehbar gelagerten Trommel, einen geschlossenen Prozessluftkreislauf, in dem mittels eines Prozessluftgebläses Trocknungsluft über einen Lufteinlass der Trommel zugeführt, über einen Luftauslass aus dieser abgeführt, in einem Wärmetauscher entfeuchtet und danach durch eine Heizung wieder erwärmt wird, einer Wärmepumpeneinrichtung mit einem Kältemittelkreislauf, bei dem Kältemittel in einem Leitungssystem mit einem Verdampfer, einem Kompressor, einem Verflüssiger und einer Drossel zirkuliert, wobei der Wärmetauscher den Verdampfer und die Heizung den Verflüssiger der Wärmepumpe enthält, ferner umfassend einen inneren Wärmetauscher, der dazu eingerichtet ist, einen Wärmeübergang eines mit Hochdruck beaufschlagten Leitungsabschnitts zu einem mit Niederdruck beaufschlagten Leitungsabschnitt bereitzustellen.The invention relates to a tumble dryer comprising a arranged in a housing, driven by a motor, rotatably mounted on a horizontal or inclined axis drum, a closed process air circuit in which supplied by means of a process air blower drying air via an air inlet of the drum, via an air outlet from this discharged, dehumidified in a heat exchanger and then reheated by a heater, a heat pump device with a refrigerant circuit in which circulates refrigerant in a piping system with an evaporator, a compressor, a condenser and a throttle, wherein the heat exchanger, the evaporator and the heating Condenser of the heat pump further comprising an inner heat exchanger, which is adapted to provide a heat transfer of a high-pressure line section to a pressurized line section line len.

Die
Bei den bekannten Wärmepumpen wird Energie ungenutzt nach außen abgeführt, die nicht für den Trocknungsprozess zur Verfügung steht.In the known heat pumps energy is dissipated unused to the outside, which is not available for the drying process.
Der Erfindung stellt sich somit die Aufgabe, einen Wäschetrockner mit einer effizienten Wärmepumpe bereitzustellen.The invention thus has the object to provide a tumble dryer with an efficient heat pump.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch einen Wäschetrockner mit den Merkmalen des unabhängigen Anspruchs 1, 2 oder 7 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den jeweils nachfolgenden abhängigen Ansprüchen.According to the invention this object is achieved by a tumble dryer with the features of the
Der mit der Erfindung erreichte Vorteil besteht darin, dass weniger sogenannte Abwärme aus dem Wärmepumpenkreis abgeführt werden muss, sodass zusätzliche Wärmetauscher im Kältemittelkreislauf zur Kühlung nicht mehr notwendig sind. Dadurch benötigt der Kältemittelkreislauf weniger Bauraum, sodass hier eine besonders kompakte Anordnung ermöglicht wird. Ferner wird durch die Verringerung der Abwärme die eingesetzte Energie für den Trocknungsprozess effizienter genutzt, so dass der Trockner weniger Wärme in den Aufstellraum abgibt, was besonders in Wohnräumen erwünscht ist.The advantage achieved with the invention is that less so-called waste heat from the heat pump circuit must be removed, so that additional heat exchanger in the refrigerant circuit for cooling are no longer necessary. As a result, the refrigerant circuit requires less space, so that a particularly compact arrangement is made possible here. Furthermore, by reducing the waste heat, the energy used for the drying process is used more efficiently, so that the dryer emits less heat into the installation room, which is particularly desirable in living spaces.
Gemäß der Erfindung umfasst die Wärmepumpeneinrichtung im Kältemittelkreislauf einen inneren Wärmetauscher, der dazu eingerichtet ist, einen Wärmeübergang eines mit Hochdruck beaufschlagten Leitungsabschnitts zu einem mit Niederdruck beaufschlagten Leitungsabschnitt bereitzustellen. Als Leitungabschnitt kann auch vom Verflüssiger selbst gebildet sein. Der innere Wärmetauscher bewirkt, dass die nutzbare Enthalphiedifferenz zwischen Druckseite des Kompressors und dem als Heizung wirkenden Wärmetauscher des Verflüssigers größer wird. Ferner wird auch die nutzbare Enthalphiedifferenz zwischen dem Drosseleingang und dem Kompressoreingang größer. Dadurch wird die kalte Seite kälter und die warme Seite wärmer, gegenüber einer Wärmepumpe ohne inneren Wärmetauscher. Dadurch wird die Effektivität der Wärmepumpe gesteigert. Die den Wärmeübergang bildenden Leitungsabschnitte stehen hierbei in direktem Kontakt, ohne dass eine Luftstrecke dazwischen vorhanden ist.According to the invention, the heat pump device in the refrigerant circuit comprises an inner heat exchanger, which is adapted to provide a heat transfer of a high-pressure line section to a pressurized line section. As a line section can also be formed by the condenser itself. The inner heat exchanger causes the usable enthalpy difference between the pressure side of the compressor and the heat exchanger acting as a heat exchanger of the condenser is greater. Furthermore, the usable enthalpy difference between the throttle input and the compressor input increases. This makes the cold side colder and the warm side warmer, compared to a heat pump without an internal heat exchanger. This increases the effectiveness of the heat pump. In this case, the line sections forming the heat transfer are in direct contact, without an air gap being present between them.
Hierbei ist es zweckmäßig, dass der innere Wärmetauscher dadurch gebildet ist, einen Wärmeübergang von einem Leitungsabschnitt zwischen dem Verflüssiger und der Drossel zu einem Leitungsabschnitt zwischen Verdampfer und Kompressor bereitzustellen. Alternativ kann der innere Wärmetauscher dadurch erzeugt werden, dass ein Wärmeübergang von einem Leitungsabschnitt zwischen dem Kompressor und dem Verflüssiger zu einem Leitungsabschnitt zwischen Drossel und Verdampfer bereitgestellt wird.Here, it is expedient that the inner heat exchanger is formed by providing a heat transfer from a line section between the condenser and the throttle to a line section between the evaporator and the compressor. Alternatively, the internal heat exchanger can be produced by providing heat transfer from a line section between the compressor and the condenser to a line section between the throttle and the evaporator.
Gemäß der Erfindung besteht der innere Wärmetauscher aus einem Leitungsstrang, der den mit Hochdruck beaufschlagten Leitungsabschnitt und den mit Niederdruck beaufschlagten Leitungsabschnitt umfasst. Somit sind die den inneren Wärmetauscher bildenden Rohrabschnitte als ein Leitungsstrang zusammengefasst. Der Leitungsstrang kann dann entsprechend geformt werden, wie es der Bauraum innerhalb des Gerätegehäuses zulässt.According to the invention, the inner heat exchanger consists of a wiring harness which comprises the high-pressure line section and the low-pressure line section. Thus, the tube forming the inner heat exchanger are summarized as a wiring harness. The wiring harness can then be shaped accordingly, as permitted by the space inside the device housing.
Erfindungsgemäß sind innerhalb des inneren Wärmetauschers die beiden Leitungsabschnitte umeinander umschlungen zur Bereitstellung einer definierten Berührfläche der Leitungswände zur Wärmeübertragung angeordnet sind. Durch die ausgeprägten Berührflächen wird der Wärmeübergang vom wärmeren Hochdruck-Leitungsabschnitt zum kälteren Niederdruck-Leitungsabschnitt verbessert.According to the invention, the two line sections are wrapped around one another within the inner heat exchanger for providing a defined contact surface of the line walls for heat transfer. The pronounced contact surfaces improve the heat transfer from the warmer high-pressure line section to the colder low-pressure line section.
Erfindungsgemäß ist gemäß einer anderen Ausführung der innere Wärmetauscher dadurch gebildet, dass der Niederdruck- Leitungsabschnitt innerhalb des Hochdruck-Leitungsabschnitts verläuft. Somit wird der kältere Niederdruck-Leitungsabschnitt zumindest teilweise vom wärmeren Kältemittel umschlossen bzw. umströmt.According to another embodiment, the inner heat exchanger is formed in that the low-pressure line section extends within the high-pressure line section. Thus, the colder low-pressure line section is at least partially enclosed or flowed around by the warmer refrigerant.
Gemäß dieser Ausführung ist der Niederdruck-Leitungsabschnitt koaxial innerhalb des Hochdruck-Leitungsabschnitts angeordnet. Dadurch wird der gegenüber dem Hochdruck-Leitungsabschnitt kältere Niederdruck-Leitungsabschnitt vollständig vom wärmeren Kältemittel umströmt, sodass ein optimaler Wärmeübergang des Kältemittels zwischen diesen beiden Leitungsabschnitten bereitgestellt wird.According to this embodiment, the low-pressure line section is arranged coaxially within the high-pressure line section. As a result, the cooler low-pressure line section, which is colder than the high-pressure line section, is completely bypassed by the warmer refrigerant, so that an optimum heat transfer of the refrigerant is provided between these two line sections.
In einer zweckmäßigen Ausführung ist der innere Wärmetauscher als spiralförmig gewendelter Leitungsstrang ausgebildet. Dadurch kann auf engem Raum ein langer Leitungsstrang mit den darin umfassenden Hochdruck- und Niederdruck-Rohrabschnitt recht kompakt untergebracht werden. Ferner finden hier keine abrupten Umlenkungen des Kältemittels statt, sodass der innere Wärmetauscher in dieser Form einen geringen Strömungswiderstand für das Kältemittel bildet.In an expedient embodiment, the inner heat exchanger is designed as a spirally wound wiring harness. As a result, a long wiring harness with the high-pressure and low-pressure pipe sections contained therein can be accommodated quite compactly in a confined space. Furthermore, no abrupt deflections of the refrigerant take place here, so that the inner heat exchanger in this form forms a low flow resistance for the refrigerant.
In einer anderen Ausführung ist der innere Wärmetauscher als schlangenlinienförmig geformter Leitungsstrang ausgebildet. Diese Ausführung ist besonders kompakt und kleinbauend auszuführen. Hierbei tritt zwar ein erhöhter Strömungswiderstand an den zahlreichen Umlenkungen auf, jedoch kann bei einer verlangsamten Strömungsgeschwindigkeit der Widerstand vernachlässigt werden. Auch eine Vergrößerung der Rohrquerschnitte, gegenüber den Rohrabschnitten einer spiralförmigen Anordnung, bewirkt eine Verlangsamung der Strömung.In another embodiment, the inner heat exchanger is formed as a serpentine-shaped wiring harness. This design is particularly compact and small-scale run. Although this results in an increased flow resistance at the numerous deflections, but can be neglected at a slowed flow velocity of the resistance. An enlargement of the pipe cross sections, compared to the pipe sections of a spiral arrangement, causes a slowing down of the flow.
In einer anderen erfindungsgemäßen Ausführung ist zur Bereitstellung des inneren Wärmetauschers der mit Niederdruck beaufschlagte Leitungsabschnitt mit dem Leitungsabschnitt des Verflüssigers in wärmeleitendem Kontakt geführt. Dadurch entfällt der bisher separat ausgebildete innere Wärmetauscher, der nun in dem kompakten Block des Verflüssigers integriert ist.In another embodiment of the invention, the low-pressure line section is led to the line section of the condenser in heat-conducting contact to provide the inner heat exchanger. This eliminates the previously separately formed inner heat exchanger, which is now integrated in the compact block of the condenser.
In einer zweckmäßigen Weiterbildung wird der wärmeleitende Kontakt mittels Rippen oder Lamellen bereitgestellt, die mit dem Leitungsabschnitt im Verflüssiger wärmeleitend verbunden sind. Die Rippen oder Lamellen sind zur Vergrößerung der wärmeübertagneden Oberfläche zum Prozessluftstrom ohnehin im Verflüssiger vorhanden, so dass diese Ausführung besonders einfach in einem Wäschetrockner umzusetzen ist.In an expedient development of the heat-conductive contact is provided by means of ribs or fins, which are connected in heat-conducting manner with the line section in the condenser. The ribs or fins are already present in the condenser to increase the heat-superior surface to the process air flow, so that this embodiment is particularly easy to implement in a tumble dryer.
In einer erfindungsgemäßen Ausführung sind an der Wandung des Hochdruck-Leitungsabschnitts Lamellen oder Rippen zur Wärmeabführung angebracht, wodurch die Oberfläche des äußeren Rohrabschnitts vergrößert wird, um dadurch die Wärmeabgabe an die Umgebungsluft aus dem Trocknergehäuse heraus zu verbessern. Dadurch wird eine sogenannte Enthitzung des Kältemittels bewirkt, da sich beim Trocknungsprozess häufig das Kältemittel stetig erwärmt, bis überschüssige Wärme aus dem Kältemittelkreislauf abgeführt werden muss.In one embodiment of the present invention, fins or fins for heat dissipation are attached to the wall of the high-pressure pipe section, thereby increasing the surface area of the outer pipe section, thereby improving the heat release to the ambient air from the dryer housing. This causes a so-called desuperheating of the refrigerant, since the refrigerant frequently heats up continuously during the drying process until excess heat has to be removed from the refrigerant circuit.
In einer zweckmäßigen Weiterbildung sind die Lamellen blockweise angeordnet, die mit Öffnungen zur Durchführung des den inneren Wärmetauscher bildenden Leitungsstrangs versehen sind. Dadurch wird die Fertigung des inneren Wärmetauschers erleichtert. In einen vorgefertigten Lamellenblock wird der bereits vorgebogene Leitungsstrang in Öffnungen eingelegt und anschließend fixiert, sodass auch eine nachträgliche Anbringung der Lamellen einfach möglich ist.In an expedient development, the slats are arranged in blocks, which are provided with openings for the passage of the inner heat exchanger forming the wiring harness. This facilitates the manufacture of the internal heat exchanger. In a prefabricated lamella block of pre-bent wiring harness is inserted into openings and then fixed so that a subsequent attachment of the slats is easily possible.
Um die Wärme gezielt abzuführen, ist es vorteilhaft, im Wirkbereich des inneren Wärmetauschers ein Gebläse zur Erzeugung eines Kühlluftstroms vorzusehen, der dazu eingerichtet ist, Wärme von dem inneren Wärmetauscher bildenden Leitungsstrang abzuführen.In order to dissipate the heat in a targeted manner, it is advantageous to provide, in the effective region of the inner heat exchanger, a fan for generating a cooling air flow, which is set up to dissipate heat from the inner heat exchanger forming wiring harness.
Insgesamt ist es zweckmäßig, die Wärmepumpeneinrichtung mit den vorgenannten Komponenten, den Motor und das Prozessluftgebläse in einem kompakten Funktionsmodul des Wäschetrockners anzuordnen. Hierbei hat sich die Ausbildung als bodenseitiges Funktionsmodul als vorteilhaft erwiesen.Overall, it is expedient to arrange the heat pump device with the aforementioned components, the engine and the process air blower in a compact functional module of the tumble dryer. Here, the training has proven to be advantageous as a bottom-side functional module.
