Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Betreiben eines Wäschetrockners (1), der zur Abgabe eines Duftstoffes während des Trocknungsprozesses ausgebildet ist, mit einer in einem Gehäuse (2) drehbar gelagerte Trommel (3), sowie eine mit einer Tür (4) verschließbare Beschickungsöffnung (5), wobei mittels eines Gebläses (6) und einer Heizeinrichtung (7) ein Prozessluftstrom (8) erzeugt wird, der durch die Trommel (3), einem Wärmetauscher (9) sowie eine Flusenfiltereinrichtung (10) strömt, und wobei durch den Prozessluftstrom (8) während des Trocknungsvorganges den Wäschestücken ein Duftstoff beigemischt wird, der von einem Duftmittelträger (11) infolge einer von der Prozessluft (8) erzeugten Strömung herausgelöst und in die Prozessluft (8) eingeführt wird, wobei der Duftmittelträger (11) zur Aufnahme eines Duftstoffes für mehrere Trocknungsprozesse ausgebildet ist.The invention relates to a method for operating a tumble dryer (1), which is designed to dispense a fragrance during the drying process, with a drum (3) rotatably mounted in a housing (2) and a feed opening closable by a door (4) (US Pat. 5), wherein by means of a blower (6) and a heater (7), a process air stream (8) is generated which flows through the drum (3), a heat exchanger (9) and a lint filter device (10), and wherein by the process air flow (8) during the drying process the laundry items a fragrance is mixed, which is removed from a fragrance carrier (11) due to a flow generated by the process air (8) and introduced into the process air (8), wherein the fragrance carrier (11) for receiving a Perfume is designed for multiple drying processes.

Um stets eine zuverlässige Beduftung zu gewährleisten, sind die Schritte vorgesehen
- Ermitteln einer Bedingung (E) zur Identifikation eines aufgebrauchten Duftmittelträgers (11) und
- Aktivieren eines Ausgabemittels (13), wenn die Bedingung (E) erfüllt ist, dass ein aufgebrauchter Duftmittelträger (11) identifiziert ist.In order to always ensure a reliable scenting, the steps are provided
- Determining a condition (E) for identifying a depleted fragrance carrier (11) and
- activating a dispensing means (13) when the condition (E) is satisfied that a depleted fragrance carrier (11) is identified.

Die Erfindung betrifft ferner einen entsprechenden Wäschetrockner (1).The invention further relates to a corresponding tumble dryer (1).
