  • the discharge collection device can be cleanly cleaned by means of the supplied water and due to the supplied water blockages in the sewage system can be avoided.
  • the tumble dryer comprises a cleaning device with a condensate collection container for collecting condensate water condensed from a process air stream at a heat exchanger.
  • the water supply line is connected to the condensate collecting tank for supplying external water into the condensate collecting tank.
  • the process air flow is that air flow which is passed through the drum to dry the laundry, thereby absorbing moisture from the laundry. By cooling down on the heat exchanger, the process air condenses and the condensate water reaches the condensate collector.
  • the condensate water from the condensate collection container in the discharge collection device is indirectly or directly zuleitbar.

  • the lint floating in the process air stream is filtered out of the process air stream mainly by the lint filter.
  • the lint filter is arranged in the flow direction as possible after emerging from the drum or at least before the heat exchanger, so that not unnecessarily further components in the process air circuit are contaminated with lint.
  • the lint filter does not work perfectly perfectly, so that lint is occasionally entrained by the process air flow through the lint filter and settle in the front part of the heat exchanger.
  • the efficiency of the heat exchanger decreases, because the settled lint a flow obstacle on the surface, in particular to a front side, form the heat exchanger.
  • the front side is also part of the surface of the heat exchanger.
  • the condensate water can be used to clean the heat exchanger by the lint be washed down from the surface, in particular from the front side of the heat exchanger.
  • the cleaning device can be configured such that only a front part, in particular a front half, of the heat exchanger can be cleaned by means of the condensate water.

  • polluted wastewater for example wastewater from a washing machine
  • polluted waste water is supplied externally to the tumble dryer
  • the system is deliberately designed so that the externally supplied, polluted waste water is used only for the discharge of the lint from the discharge collection device.
  • the dirty wastewater from the washing machine does not come into contact with a component from the process air flow circuit, for example, with the heat exchanger or the lint filter, so that the laundry to be dried can not be contaminated with residues from the wastewater.
  • the water supply is connected only to the discharge collection device.
  • the external water may be supplied not only to the discharge collection device but also to the condensate collection container.
  • only clean external water is supplied to the condensate collector. This is possible by controlling the contamination of the supplied water, for example via a turbidity sensor.
