Definitions

  • Electrochemical producers of bleaching agents are sometimes used in washing machines, e.g. Titanium-iridium electrodes for the formation of sodium hypochlorite from saline water or silver electrodes for the production of silver ions. It is also known for treating or disinfecting water to use boron-doped diamond electrodes to produce directly from water hydroxyl radicals that are efficient bleaching agents.
  • Ozone is one of the most effective oxidizing agents and is commercially available e.g. used in the paper industry, among other things, as an efficient and environmentally friendly bleaching agent. Even in commercial laundry care ozone is used for bleaching and disinfecting textiles. Ozone has the advantage that it produces no environmentally harmful reaction products and is degraded when used without residue. The disadvantage, however, is the lack of shelf life, so that ozone must always be generated immediately before its use.
  • Ozone is not just a powerful disinfectant; In combination with a care or cleaning agent applied in a domestic appliance, it also causes complex and rapid reactions which can lead to an improved care or cleaning effect.
  • the WO 2007/143785 A1 describes a system and apparatus for introducing ozone into a washing machine.
  • the system includes a first conduit for introducing ozone from an ozone supply into a scrubbing liquid inlet and a second conduit for discharging ozone into an area above a scrubbing chamber.
  • a Venturi nozzle is used for introducing ozone and for mixing with a washing liquid.
  • the Venturi nozzle is operatively coupled to wash liquid inlet means to draw the ozone into the wash liquid while the wash liquid is being added to the wash tank.
  • the DE 10 2008 024 322 A1 describes a dishwasher with a washing container, a supply line for rinse water in the washing and a Ozone generator with an air supply, which is connected to an injector nozzle for mixing the ozone / air mixture generated by it with rinse water.
  • the EP 1 932 962 A1 describes a clothes dryer with a treatment container in which the clothes are dried, a blower in a drying air duct, and with an ozone generator outside a drying air duct to produce ozone from outside sucked air, to then deliver them to an outlet.
  • the exit is connected to a portion of the drying air passage upstream of a blower unit.
  • An ozone supply control can be provided, which only then gives the ozone generated by the ozone generator in the treatment vessel, after a drying-detecting unit indicates a certain level of drying.
  • an ozone generator is provided, as well as an ozone supply control, which supplies the generated ozone to the treatment tank during a dehydrating step.
  • a suitable sensor for determining the concentration of detergent and / or washing aid in the drum is present in a washing machine used for carrying out the method.
  • a suitable sensor for example, an optical sensor, a conductivity sensor or a tensiometer can be used. This sensor can supply the measured signals to the washing machine for further processing via a signal line of a generally available control device.
  • the ozone-containing air is conveyed in a circuit comprising the drum and a recirculating air channel.
  • the ozone-providing device can be separated from the circuit by means of a first controllable closure device.
  • the first controllable closure device is generally connected to a controller of the washing machine, which can cause, for example, in response to a signal of an ozone sensor, which indicates a too low ozone concentration in the circuit, an opening of the first controllable closure device.
  • the ozone generator is preferably supplied with dry air, since the ozone yield in dried air is significantly higher than in indoor air with normal humidity.
  • a conventional drying agent may be used, which may preferably be reversibly dewatered, e.g. Zeolite.
  • a Peltier element is used, which can act as a cold finger in a supply air duct for the ozone generator. On the cold side of the Peltier element condenses the humidity, which is then dissipated and evaporated on the hot side of the Peltier element or independently.
  • the ozone generator the air can be supplied by a pump or a blower.
  • the ozone removal device is preferably arranged in the second exhaust air part channel.
  • the ozone-containing air in the second exhaust air sub-channel can be arranged in this a blower and / or a suction pump. If a fan is already present in the first exhaust air sub-channel, it is possible to dispense with a blower and / or a suction pump in the second exhaust air sub-channel.
  • the invention When using liquid detergents which generally do not receive bleaches, the invention enables the function of a heavy-duty detergent to be realized. Finally, when using the method according to the invention at the end of a laundry treatment process also a disinfection of laundry and surfaces instead, whereby a formation of biofilms in the washing machine is prevented or at least reduced.
  • Washing machine shown has a tub 1, in which a drum 2 is rotatably mounted about a substantially horizontally disposed axis of rotation 3 of the drum 2 and can be operated by a drive motor 14.
  • the long arrow indicates a direction of rotation of the drum 2.
  • Wäschemit Vietnamese 4 and 5 scooping devices for the wash liquor 6 on the inner surface of the drum shell cause an intensification of the flow of laundry 7 with wash liquor. 6
  • the transport of the air in the ozone supply line 25 and in the supply air duct 30 can be supported by a blower, not shown here.
  • Fig. 1 described washing machine illustrates two variants for the treatment of laundry with ozone-containing air.
  • the ozone-containing air generated by the ozone generator 20 is not circulated.
  • the third controllable closure device 35 is closed.
  • the ozone-containing air remains in the drum 2 for a desired period of time, in order then to be disposed of via the second exhaust air duct 17 when the second controllable closure device 34 is open.
  • the concentration c of detergent and / or washing auxiliaries is measured with the aid of a sensor system 15.
  • the ozone-containing air is conveyed by means of the blower 19 through the drum 2, wherein the ozone-containing air is conveyed here in a circuit comprising the drum 2 and the recirculating air duct 26.
  • the ozone-containing air passes through the sleeve 24 in the region of the feed opening 23 into the drum 2 and leaves it through a rear exit 32 of the drum 2.
  • the drum 2 stands still during the introduction of the ozone-containing air into the drum 2 and is operated only after completion of the introduction of ozone-containing air in a Reversierrhythmus.
  • the ozone-containing air is introduced after a penultimate and before a final rinse after pumping out the rinse water, wherein before the addition of the ozone-containing air, a spin phase is performed.
