Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a household appliance, such as a washing machine, with a mist circuit for guiding an ozone-containing mist and an ozone chamber, which comprises an ozone converter for generating ozone.
  • the publication DE 10 2012 209 823 A1 shows a household appliance with a generator and a filter device.
  • the publication DE 10 2012 207 978 A1 shows a water-conducting household appliance with a mist generator.
  • the publication DE 10 2011 089 122 A1 shows a household appliance with a mist source and a circuit for media management.
  • an ozone-containing mist for treating laundry in a cycle from a laundry drum can be passed through an activated carbon filter in which the ozone contained is largely degraded.
  • the water content of the mist can pass through the activated carbon filter.
  • the mist is now continued by a fan and reaches the ozone converter, so that it is enriched with ozone and finally gets back into the drum.
  • contact of the ozone converter with the mist causes rapid aging and a reduction in the ozone generation rate due to the chemical reactions taking place.
  • the object is achieved by a household appliance having a mist circuit for guiding an ozone-containing mist with mist droplets and an ozone chamber comprising an ozone converter for generating ozone, in which the domestic appliance comprises a channel for connecting the mist circuit to the ozone chamber, comprising a separation device for separating the mist droplets.
  • the domestic appliance comprises a channel for connecting the mist circuit to the ozone chamber, comprising a separation device for separating the mist droplets.
  • a household appliance is a device that is used for household management. This may be a large household appliance, such as a washing machine, a washer-dryer, a tumble dryer, a dishwasher, a cooking appliance, a cooker hood or a refrigerator, such as a refrigerator, a freezer or a fridge freezer combination. But this can also be a small household appliance, such as a water heater, a coffee machine, a food processor or a vacuum cleaner.
  • the separating device comprises a water chamber for washing out the mist droplets.
  • the separating device comprises a diffuser for generating air bubbles in the water chamber.
  • the water chamber comprises a filling level sensor for determining a filling level in the water chamber.
  • the water chamber is connected via a communicating channel with a water chamber of a fog generator.
  • the ozone chamber comprises a fan for generating a negative pressure in the ozone chamber.
  • the fan is designed to supply the air from the ozone chamber to the mist circuit.
  • the technical advantage is achieved that the fog circulation can be enriched with ozone.
  • the household appliance comprises an air scoop for branching off a part of the fan generated Air flow in the separator.
  • the fan is an axial fan or a tangential fan.
  • the separating device comprises an air-permeable membrane which is impermeable to water.
  • the membrane is arranged vertically.
  • the technical advantage is achieved that water can escape from the membrane.
  • the separating device comprises a connecting channel for discharging water, which is arranged in front of the membrane.
  • the connecting channel is designed to direct the water into a water chamber of a fog generator.
  • a cloud chamber is arranged below the separating device.
  • the domestic appliance comprises a Venturi nozzle for feeding the mist from the mist circuit to the mist chamber.
  • Fig. 1 shows a schematic view of a washer dryer representative of a general household appliance 100.
  • the household appliance 100 includes a door 131 for loading the household appliance 100 with laundry. The laundry is washed inside the household appliance 100 and then dried.
  • the domestic appliance 100 comprises a pull-out dispenser bowl 133 into which different liquid substances are added, which are supplied to the laundry during the washing or drying process.
  • the dispenser tray 133 is, for example, a pull-out drawer-like plastic part with a dispenser tray.
  • the domestic appliance 100 includes a mist circuit or air flow circuit 101 for guiding an ozone-containing mist, which is used to treat the laundry inside the household appliance 100.
  • Fig. 2 10 shows a schematic view of a mist circuit 101 within the domestic appliance 100.
  • the domestic appliance 100 comprises a mist circuit 101 for guiding the mist and an ozone chamber 103, which has an ozone converter 105 for generating ozone.
  • the mist with the mist droplets is blown into the pipe 135 and sucked by the pipe 137.
  • the mist is used to treat the laundry in a laundry drum of the household appliance.
  • a channel 107 is arranged, which comprises a separator 109 for separating the mist.
  • the technical advantage of this principle is that the ozone converter 105 does not come in direct contact with fog. This allows a longer life and a higher Achieve ozone generation rate.
  • the ozone converter 105 is located in a closed space to the right of a fan 115.
  • the fan 115 causes a negative pressure in the ozone chamber 103 and a pressure generation in the channel 107. Due to the pressure difference, there is a pressure equalization by the water in a water chamber 117 takes place in the form of air bubbles. Using a diffuser can limit the size of air bubbles.
  • the ozone-containing air is now driven by means of the fan 115 as a stream of air in the direction of the mist circuit 101 to a laundry drum.
  • the mist which is generated by a mist generator 113 in an adjacent mist chamber 111 is entrained. This is due to the suction effect of the air flow according to the law of Bernoulli.
  • An air vane 129 serves to divert a portion of the air flow generated by the fan 115 in the channel 107 with the separator 109. If the channel 107 has a large cross-sectional area, resulting in a small cross-sectional area of the mist circuit 101. Accordingly, arises in the channel 107, in which Fog is filtered out, a high airflow. In the mist circuit 101, a small air flow occurs, so that the mist is not so dense and there is no deterioration of the visual fog effect. Due to the dimensions of the average surfaces of the two air ducts, the pressure conditions and the air flow of the mist can be changed in the direction of the laundry drum.
  • an axial fan or a tangential fan may be used to apply the pressure difference for generating air bubbles.
  • the level of water in the water chambers 117 and 119 can be determined and regulated directly next to the separation using a level sensor.
  • the piezoelectric element is used to generate the mist droplets.
  • Fig. 3 shows a schematic view of the Nebelniklaufes 101 from above and a suction effect according to the law of Bernoulli.
  • the airflow generated by the fan 115 passes the venturi 123, taking with it the mist from the mist chamber 111 and the tube 137. Subsequently, the mist is ejected from the pipe 135.
  • the fan 115 drives the mist circuit 101 with the air circuit via the two pipes 135 and 137.
  • Fig. 4 shows a schematic view of another fog circuit 101 within the household appliance 100.
  • the separator 109 comprises a vertical filter or a membrane 125 which is permeable to air, but not for water.
  • the membrane 125 includes, for example, micropores through which the air can penetrate, but no drops of water.
  • the water molecules contained in the mist are filtered out, so that only dry air enters the ozone chamber 103.
  • the filtered water can drain, so that no accumulation of water forms, which clogs the diaphragm 125.
