Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a laundry dryer comprising a water filter that enables the condensate water to be filtered.
  • condensation type laundry dryers the processing air is heated by a heater and directed into the drum, which then contacts the damp laundry and removes the moisture on the laundry and which is finally delivered to a condenser to be dehumidified.
  • the condensate water forming in the condenser is collected by means of a transfer means in a detachable tank situated in the body of the laundry dryer.
  • the water collected in the tank is transferred to the spraying device by means of a transfer means.
  • the water is sprayed onto components such as condenser, evaporator, etc. by means of the spraying device and provides the cleaning thereof.
  • the aim of the present invention is the realization of a laundry dryer, the drying effectiveness of which is increased.
  • the laundry dryer realized in order to attain the aim of the present invention, explicated in the first claim and the respective claims thereof comprises a body, a drum wherein the laundry is placed, a condenser that provides the dehumidification of the drying processing air, a tank wherein the condensate water leaving the condenser is collected, an outlet situated on the tank and provides the discharge of the water in the tank, and a water conduit that enables the water discharged through the outlet to be delivered to the air circulation duct.
  • the laundry dryer of the present invention furthermore comprises a water filter that provides the filtering of the water delivered to the water conduit through the outlet.
  • the condensate water is filtered by means of a water filter situated at the tank outlet with respect to the water flow direction.
  • the laundry dryer comprises a housing wherein the tank is placed and an opening arranged on the body, through which the tank is placed into/removed from the housing.
  • the water filter is situated in the filter housing on the housing inner wall. The water filter can be reached through the opening.
  • the laundry dryer has the filter housing arranged at the upper side of the body, visible through the opening when the tank is partially or completely pulled from the opening and situated at a distance that the user can access through the opening.
  • the water filter is detachably mounted into the filter housing.
  • the laundry dryer comprises an opening arranged on the body.
  • the water filter has an active position (A) where it is placed into the opening by being pushed and a passive position (P) where it is taken out by being pulled through the opening.
  • the opening is arranged on the front surface of the body.
  • the user can easily access the water filter by means of the opening situated preferably at the upper side of the body front surface which is the surface where the laundry is placed into the laundry dryer.
  • the laundry dryer comprises a spraying device that sprays the water filtered by the water filter and received from the water conduit onto the condenser or the air filter.
  • the water condensed in the condenser is collected in a receptacle and the collected water is delivered to the tank situated at the upper side of the body by means of a pump.
  • the water collected in the tank is transferred to the spraying device by means of the water conduit.
  • the spraying device sprays the water onto the condenser or the air filter and thus cleans these components.
  • the condensate water is enabled to be filtered by means of a water filter.
  • the laundry dryer (1) comprises a body (2), a drum (3) wherein the laundry is placed, a condenser (4) that provides the dehumidification of the drying processing air, a tank (5) situated at the upper side of the body (2), wherein the condensate water leaving the condenser (4) is collected, an outlet (6) situated on the tank (5) and provides the discharge of the water in the tank (5), and a water conduit (7) that enables the water discharged through the outlet (6) to be delivered to the air circulation duct.
  • the laundry dryer (1) of the present invention furthermore comprises a water filter (8) that provides the filtering of the water delivered to the water conduit (7) through the outlet (6).
  • the condensate water obtained from the processing air that is dehumidified by means of the condenser (4) is preferably collected in a receptacle under the condenser (4) and is delivered to the tank (5) situated at the upper side of the body (2) from the receptacle by means of a pump.
  • the condensate water collected in the tank (5) is delivered to the water conduit (7) with the effect of the gravity and then sent downwards by means of the water conduit (7) to be sprayed on components such as the condenser (4), air filter, etc. Consequently, the said components are enabled to be cleaned.
  • Particles such as hair, lint, etc. in the processing air may mix into the condensate water. These particles are retained by means of a water filter (8). With the water filter (8) being situated at the tank (5) outlet, the error "the tank (5) is full" is prevented from occurring in the case the water filter (8) is clogged ( Figure 1 ).
  • the water filter (8) is detachably mounted to the outlet (6).
  • the tank (5) With the water filter (8) being situated at the outlet (6), the tank (5) is enabled to be filled with water up to the outlet (6) level even if the water filter (8) is clogged.
  • the water filter (8) With the water filter (8) being detachably situated at the outlet (6) through which the water in the tank (5) is discharged, the water filter (8) can be easily detached from the tank (5) and cleaned if desired ( Figure 5 ).
  • the laundry dryer (1) comprises a housing (9) wherein the tank (5) is placed, an opening (10) arranged on the body (2) and through which the tank (5) is placed into/removed from the housing (9) and a filter housing (12) arranged on the housing (9) inner wall and almost completely aligned with the outlet (6) when the tank (5) is placed into the housing (9).
  • the water poured through the tank (5) outlet (6) is delivered to the water conduit (7) after being filtered by means of the water filter (8) that is placed into the filter housing (12) and accessed through the opening (10) ( Figure 4 ).
  • the water filter (8) is placed at a position at the upper side of the body (2), visible through the opening (10) when the tank (5) is partially or completely pulled from the opening (10) and that the user can access through the opening (10).
  • the water filter (8) is clogged, the user can easily access the water filter (8) and clean the water filter (8).
  • the water filter (8) is detachably mounted into the filter housing (12).
  • the user may easily place the water filter (8) into the filter housing (12) and remove it therefrom.
  • the laundry dryer (1) comprises an opening (110) arranged on the body (2).
  • the water filter (8) has an active position (A) where it is placed into the opening (110) by being pushed and a passive position (P) where it is taken out by being pulled through the opening (110).
  • the water filter (8) has an active position (A) where it is placed into the opening (110) on the body (2) by being pushed and where the condensate water is enabled to be filtered, and a passive position (P) whereto it is changed from the active position (A) by being pulled ( Figure 2 , Figure 3 ).
  • the opening (110) is arranged on the front surface of the body (2).
  • the user can easily access the water filter (8).
  • the laundry dryer (1) comprises a spraying device (11) that sprays the water filtered by the water filter (8) and received from the water conduit (7) onto the condenser (4) or the air filter.
  • the water condensed in the condenser (4) is collected in a receptacle and the collected water is delivered to the tank (5) situated at the upper side of the body (2) by means of a pump.
  • the water collected in the tank (5) is transferred to the spraying device (11) by means of the water conduit (7).
  • the spraying device (11) sprays the water onto the condenser (4) or the air filter and thus cleans these components.
