Definitions

  • the invention relates to a tumble dryer with a housing and a treatment space for receiving dry material, and with a device for condensing moisture from the dry material, which generates a process air flow, in the flow channel a filter insert is arranged, wherein the filter insert from the outside via a in the Front wall of the housing arranged inspection flap is accessible, and wherein the filter insert for positive engagement in the flow channel sleeve members which are plugged into arranged in the flow channel pin elements in the inserted state, wherein for the correct mounting of the filter insert a monitoring element is provided (see US-A-2006 00 37 213 ).
  • the previous solution is based on the use of a magnet, which acts as a monitoring element for the use of the filter.
  • the production of a magnet requires the use of so-called rare earths.
  • the purchase price of these magnets has risen sharply, which adversely affects the manufacturing cost.
  • a complex electronics is used, which monitors the correct installation of the filter cartridge.
  • the invention thus raises the problem of developing a tumble dryer in such a way that the monitoring of the filter cartridge can be implemented much more cost-effectively.
  • the blocking means consists of a pin element arranged on the telescopic pin, which is arranged against the action of a spring displaceable on the pin member.
  • the pin acts in this case with a locking element which locks the pin in the telescoped state. So if the pin is extended, it is locked by the locking element against an automatic pushing back. Now, if the filter insert is inserted into the opening of the flow channel, the locking element is unlocked by attaching the sleeve element arranged on the filter element, so that then the access door can be closed without obstruction.
  • this comprises a transversely to the direction of displacement of the pin movably arranged cam member.
  • the cam element can be brought into the unlocking position against the action of gravity.
  • the filter insert is removed, the pin moves into the front end position, with the cam element falling into the blocking position with gravitational force.
  • the access panel can not be closed anymore.
  • the cam element is raised and releases the travel path for the pin again.
  • the locking element can be configured as a leaf spring element, which is fixed as a spring strip on the pin member rocker-like.
  • a spring-loaded metal pin is mounted in a plastic guide. This pin moves when removing the insert filter in the front end position and a plate spring, which is connected to the plastic guide, snaps into a shoulder of the pin and locks it. The access panel can not be closed anymore. By inserting the filter insert, the sheet metal spring is bent, thereby releasing the travel path for the pin again.
  • This is the Lock element which is designed as a spring strip, attached to the pin member like a rocker.
  • the spring strip in its central extension region on an outwardly facing formation, which forms a kind of knob guide.
  • the spring strip has at its free end a pointing to the sliding pin hook area, which engages in the locked state in a groove formed on the pin.
  • FIG. 1 shows in the sectional side view of a clothes dryer 1 with a rotatably mounted in a housing 2 Drum 3.
  • the housing 2 in this case has a door 4, which closes a feed opening 5.
  • a Heating device 6, which may be configured as a heat pump, in which case the heater 6 generates a process air flow with a fan which flows through a heat exchanger 7, the one accessible from outside via a arranged in the front wall 8 of the housing 2 access door 9 filter insert 10 in the flow channel 11 is connected upstream.
  • the removable filter insert 10 in the flow channel 11 is in particular in the Figures 2 and 3 to recognize where in the front region of the housing 2, the access door 9 is shown in each case in the open state, wherein in the FIG. 2 the filter cartridge 10 in the inserted state and in the FIG. 3 in the removed state.
  • FIG. 3 has for positive engagement in the flow channel 11 of the filter element 10 sleeve members 12 which are plugged into arranged in the flow channel 11 pin elements 13 in the inserted state and wherein for the correct mounting of the filter cartridge 10 in the flow channel 11, a monitoring element 14, as shown in FIG the FIGS. 4 . 5 . 6 7, 8, 9 is provided. It is designed as a monitoring element 14 for the correct installation of at least one of the pin members 13 as a blocking means, as shown in the FIGS. 4 and 7 can be seen.
  • the pin member 13 prevents in the absence of filter insert 10 in the flow channel 11, a closure of the access door 9.
  • FIG. 3 has for positive engagement in the flow channel 11 of the filter element 10 sleeve members 12 which are plugged into arranged in the flow channel 11 pin elements 13 in the inserted state and wherein for the correct mounting of the filter cartridge 10 in the flow channel 11, a monitoring element 14, as shown in FIG the FIGS. 4 . 5 . 6 7, 8, 9 is provided. It is designed as a monitoring element
  • the blocking means consists of a pin member 13 arranged on the telescoping pin 15.
  • the pin 15 is slidably disposed against the action of a spring 16 in the pin member 13.
  • the pin 15 cooperates with a locking element 17, wherein the locking element 17, the pin 15 in the telescoped state, as shown in the FIG. 4 is shown, locks.
  • the locking element 17 is unlocked, as in particular in the FIG. 5 is shown where in particular the sleeve member 12 is shown displaced over the locking element 17.
  • the locking element 17 in this case comprises a transversely to the direction of displacement of the pin 15 movably arranged cam member.
  • the opening edge 18 of the sleeve member 12 in this case pushes the cam member against gravity to the inside, so that the free mobility of the pin 15 is achieved.
  • the cam element is in this case mounted displaceably in a pin area.
  • the cam member against the action of gravity in the unlocking position can be brought, as shown in the FIG. 5 and 6 will be shown.
  • the FIG. 6 shows the inserted pin 15, in which case the inspection flap 9 comes to rest in the opening region of the housing 2 or in the front wall 8.
  • FIGS. 7 . 8th and 9 Another variant of the monitoring element 14 according to the invention is in the FIGS. 7 . 8th and 9 shown, in which case the monitoring element 14 comprises a leaf spring element 19, which is arranged as a spring strip 20 on the pin member 13 rocker-like.
  • the spring strip 20 has, in its middle extent region, an outward-pointing formation 21 which corresponds approximately to the cam element according to the first variant.
  • the spring strip 20 has a hook portion 22 facing the displaceable pin 15, which in the locked state, shown in FIG FIG. 7 , engages in a groove 15 formed on the pin 23.
  • the pin 15 is locked in this situation for insertion, so that the access door 9 can not be closed.
  • the sleeve member 12 is pushed with its opening edge 18 on the formation 21, the formed as a cam molding 21 is pressed inward, so that a luffing motion is emphasized on the nose 24, which in particular raises the pin 15 pointing hook area 22, so that the hook portion 22 is lifted out of the groove 23 on the pin 15, and thereby the unlocking is made.
  • the pin 15 is then retracted, as well as in the FIG. 9 is shown, which can then close the access door 9.
