Definitions

  • the invention relates to a laundry treatment cabinet, such as e.g. a clothes drying cabinet.
  • a laundry treatment cabinet such as e.g. a clothes drying cabinet.
  • This is a device with a resting in operation, i. non-rotating, useful space in which the laundry is introduced for treatment.
  • the device has means for laundry treatment, such as. a drying plant or a vaporization plant.
  • Cabinets of this kind serve e.g. for drying laundry, but also for refreshing or for the odor treatment of laundry.
  • EP 2 330 247 is described a cabinet dryer for laundry, in which the process air is sucked through a lower vent opening from the work space and is led to the drying and heating by the evaporator and the condenser of a heat pump assembly. thereupon The air is routed by air conveyors through a connecting channel on the back of the unit to upper vents, from where the air is reintroduced into the utility room.
  • the heat pump assembly is housed in a base part below the utility room.
  • the laundry treatment cabinet has a work space with ventilation openings for blowing process air into the work space. At least a portion of the ventilation openings is arranged on the ceiling of the work space in order to produce a downwardly running airflow in the work space from the ceiling. Next aids are provided for generating an obliquely upward flow of air in the useful space. Thus, a top-to-bottom airflow is combined with an upwardly-directed airflow. It can be seen that the resulting improved aeration of the laundry, among other things, makes it possible to shorten the process time, to dry the laundry faster (as part of a drying process) and to achieve more homogeneous results, e.g. in providing "ironing" laundry. The reduction of the process time leads to a reduction of the energy consumption of the device.
  • An "obliquely upwardly flowing airflow” is to be understood as meaning an airflow in which the velocity vector averaged over all air molecules is oriented obliquely upward, i. directed upward but not parallel to the vertical runs.
  • the mentioned aids comprise a fan obliquely to Vertical arranged blowing direction. This sucks process air from the work space and returns it in the obliquely upward air flow back into the usable space.
  • the fan is advantageously arranged directly in the utility room.
  • the tools have nozzles which are arranged in a side wall of the work space. Process air is introduced from the outside into the obliquely upward-directed air flow via these nozzles.
  • the invention is particularly suitable for a laundry treatment cabinet with a steam generator for introducing steam, e.g. via the connecting channel, into the working space or with a fragrance generator for introducing a fragrance into the working space, since in this case the steam or the fragrance is introduced homogeneously into the laundry.
  • the side of the device is designated as the front side of the device, on which the door is arranged, via which the user has access to the work space.
  • the back is the side opposite the front.
  • Terms of the type "forward,” “front,” “rear,” and “rear” refer to this frame of reference, i.
  • the door is in front of the utility room and the utility room is located in front of the back.
  • connection channel is arranged laterally of a side wall of the work space, i. in horizontal direction parallel to the front side, the side wall of the work space and the connecting channel overlap.
  • FIG. 1-3 An advantageous embodiment of the laundry treatment cabinet is in Fig. 1-3 shown, with important functional components once again isolated in Fig. 4 are shown.
  • the laundry treatment cabinet 10 has a substantially cuboidal housing 11 with a work space 12, which also has a substantially cuboid shape.
  • a base part 13 connects below the working space 12.
  • the cabinet 10 is bounded to the rear by a rear wall 16, laterally by side walls 17, 18, upwardly by a ceiling 19, downwardly by a floor 20 and forwardly by a door 21 for filling the work space 12.
  • the work space 12 is used to hold the laundry.
  • suitable means for receiving laundry are provided in the work space, e.g. a rod 23 for receiving hangers and optionally other means for laundry reception, such as baskets, grilles, etc.
  • the useful space 12 is accessible via the door 21.
  • a heat pump assembly 22 comprising a compressor 30, a condenser 31, an additional heat exchanger 32, an expansion valve 33 and an evaporator 34 is provided.
  • a medium is passed in a known manner through the condenser 31, the additional heat exchanger 32, the expansion valve 33, the evaporator 34 and back to the compressor 30, whereby the condenser 31 is heated and the evaporator 34 is cooled.
  • the additional heat exchanger 32 is used in the in EP 2 034 084 described manner to deprive the system heat.
  • a fan 35 is provided which Cooling air blows from the environment through the additional heat exchanger 32 and via the expansion valve 33 and the compressor 30.
  • a steam generator 36 is provided, with which steam can be generated.
  • the steam generator 36 is connected to the shaft 14 through a channel 37 via an inlet opening 39, hereinafter also referred to as the "outlet" of the steam generator.
  • the inlet opening 39 is arranged in the vicinity of the lower end of the shaft 14.
  • a container with two tanks (not shown) are also still arranged, which are removable tank.
  • One of these tanks forms a fresh water tank for the steam generator 36, and the other a condensed water tank for water, which is pumped from a trough in the bottom of the base part 13.
  • Ventilation openings 42 are provided with which in the useful space 12, a top-down running airflow 43 can be generated.
  • the air thus introduced into the work space 12 leaves it again via a discharge opening 44 in the bottom 45 of the work space.
  • a channel 46 arranged in the base part 13 adjoins.
  • the channel 46 is part of the circulation system, through which the air is led to the treatment.
  • tapered channel portion of the channel 46 are interchangeable filters 47, 48 arranged in the usual manner to keep contaminants from the heat exchangers of the evaporator 34 and the capacitor 31.
  • the evaporator 34 and the condenser 31 are in a subsequent second channel section of the channel 46 arranged.
  • the duct 46 in this section, passes the air through the heat exchangers of the evaporator 34 and the condenser 31.
  • a third channel section of the channel 46 adjoins, which opens into the suction region of a radial fan 50 after further tapering, which forms the air conveying means for conveying the process air.
  • the radial fan 50 is arranged in the lateral shaft 14 of the laundry treatment cabinet 10. The air is directed by the radial fan 50 through the vertical shaft 14, in which it can ascend to the ceiling space 15 of the device.
  • a light source 51 and at least one catalyst surface 52 are arranged for the photocatalytic air treatment.
  • Household appliances with such catalysts are made, for example EP 2241826 A1 known.
  • a heater 53 is arranged in the shaft 14, with which the air circulating in the device 10 can be heated if necessary.
  • the connecting channel 14 merges into a horizontally extending ceiling channel 55, which is arranged above the useful space 12.
  • the ventilation openings 42 are connected to this ceiling channel, so that, as already described, the air from the ceiling channel 55 can flow from above into the working space 12.
  • the path taken by the air as described by the laundry treatment cabinet 10, forms the main part of a circulation system, wherein the representation of other parts of the circulation system, such as any intake and exhaust ports, is omitted for the sake of clarity.
  • the drying cabinet 10 on a likewise not shown control panel with input and output means, which serves to control or monitoring of the laundry treatment cabinet.
  • the A- and / or output means are provided with a device control 56 ( Fig. 4 ), which controls the operation of the various components of the device.
  • the above-mentioned aids 60 are further arranged, with which the obliquely upward current air flow 61 is generated. These aids 60 are advantageously attached to a vertical side wall 65 of the work space 12.
  • the vertical side wall 65, to which the aids 60 are fastened, is advantageously arranged parallel to the rod 23, so that the mean velocity vector of the air flow 61 lies in a plane perpendicular to the rod 23. In this way, laundry items hung on the bar 23 with hangers are optimally ventilated.
  • the tools 60 include a fan 62 mounted in a bracket 63.
