In the washing process, the motor, that provides the rotation of the drum providing the mechanical cleaning, is cooled by the cool air coming from the evaporator and the motor is enabled to be operated with the same performance during the washing process. In an embodiment of the present invention, the fan is disposed between the evaporator and the motor. The fan blows the air sucked from around the evaporator towards the motor. Thus, the cool air around the evaporator is moved away from the evaporator and cool air is provided to the motor to increase the efficiency of the motor. In another embodiment of the present invention, the evaporator is disposed between the fan and the motor and the fan blows air onto the evaporator, thus enabling the air to cool down over the evaporator to move towards the motor. In other words, the fan enables the motor to be cooled by moving the cool air over the evaporator away from the evaporator and delivering it the motor. In another embodiment of the present invention, the air around the evaporator is delivered by the fan towards the motor through a channel extending from the evaporator to the motor. The air blown by the fan is guided towards the motor by means of the channel surrounding the evaporator and extending up to the motor.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the washing machine comprises a control unit that activates/deactivates the fan depending on the temperature around the motor. The fan is activated when the temperature around the motor increases, and is deactivated when the temperature decreases. Thus, the fan is enabled to consume less energy.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the washing machine comprises a temperature sensor disposed on the motor. The control unit activates the fan when the air around the motor reaches a first limit temperature value predetermined by the producer and deactivates the fan when the air around the motor reaches a second limit temperature value predetermined by the producer.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the fan is activated by the control unit when the motor is operated and deactivated when the motor is not operated. By means of this embodiment, the efficiency of the motor is prevented from decreasing and energy consumption is prevented from increasing with the fan being operated less.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the control unit activates/deactivates the fan depending on the current drawn by the motor. The fan is activated when the motor drawn by the motor increases, and is deactivated when the current decreases. Thus, the fan is enabled to consume less energy.

The washing machine (1) comprises a drum (2) wherein the washing process is realized, a motor (3) that provides the rotation of the drum (2) and an evaporator (4) that heats the coolant fluid passing therethrough by drawing the heat of the air therearound.
In the washing machine (1), the laundry is placed into the drum (2) in order to be cleaned, the motor (3) drives and rotates the drum (2) and the laundry is rubbed inside the drum (2) to be mechanically cleaned.
The washing machine (1) of the present invention comprises a fan (5) that is disposed in the vicinity of the evaporator (4) and that transfers the cool air around the evaporator (4) towards the motor (3). The motor (3), that heats up as a result of the rotation of the drum (2) at variable speeds, is cooled by delivering the cool air around the evaporator (4) onto the motor (3) (Figure 1, Figure 2, Figure 3).
In the heat pump washing machine (1), the heat pump comprises a compressor (6) that pressurizes the coolant fluid passing therethrough, an evaporator (4) and a condenser (7). The fluid pressurized by the compressor (6) is delivered to a condenser (7) disposed in the fluid cycle. The water around the condenser (7), that is to be transferred into the drum, heats up by drawing the heat of the fluid in the condenser (7) and is transferred to the drum (2) for the washing process. The fluid passing through the condenser (7) reaches the evaporator (4) in a cool status. Heat transfer is realized from the air around the evaporator (4) to the fluid inside the evaporator (4) and thus the temperature of the fluid inside the evaporator (4) increases and the air around the evaporator (4) surface and hence around the evaporator (4) cools down. By means of the fan (5) that guides the air around the evaporator (4) to the motor (3), the cool air around the evaporator (4) disperses and the evaporator (4) is enabled to draw heat from the environment and the efficiency thereof is improved by creating a relatively hotter environment. At the same time, by blowing cool air onto the motor (3), the motor (3) is prevented from stopping while operating and/or the efficiency thereof is prevented from decreasing due to high temperature.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the fan (5) is disposed between the motor (3) and the evaporator (4) and blows the air sucked from around the evaporator (4) towards the motor (3). Thus, the cool air around the evaporator (4) is moved away from the evaporator (4) and hot air is delivered to the motor (3) to increase the efficiency of the motor (3).
In an embodiment of the present invention, the evaporator (4) is disposed between the fan (5) and the motor (3), the fan (5) is enables the air around the evaporator (4) to be guided towards the motor (3) and enables the cool air over the evaporator (4) to be moved away from the evaporator (4) to cool the motor (3). In other words, the fan (5) is disposed so that the motor (3) is situated at one side of the evaporator (4) and the fan (5) is situated at the other side.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the washing machine (1) comprises a channel (8) that extends from the evaporator (4) towards the motor (3) and that enables the air guided by the fan (5) to flow towards the motor (3). The channel (8) that surrounds the evaporator (4) and extends up to the motor (3) enables the air to be guided by the fan (5) towards the motor (3) (Figure 2).
In an embodiment of the present invention, the washing machine (1) comprises a control unit (9) that activates or deactivates the fan (5) depending on the temperature around the motor (3). Thus, the fan (5) is enabled to be operated only when the motor (3) heats up and to consume less energy. In an embodiment of the present invention, the washing machine (1) comprises a temperature sensor (10) provided in close proximity of the motor (3). The control unit (9) measures the temperature of the air around the motor (3) by means of the temperature sensor (10) and activates the fan (5) when the air around the motor (3) reaches a first limit temperature value (Tl) predetermined by the producer and deactivates the fan (5) when the around the motor (3) reaches a second limit temperature value (T2) predetermined by the producer.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the control unit (9) activates the fan (5) when the motor (3) is operated and deactivates the fan (5) when the motor (3) is not operated. By continuously blowing air onto the motor (3) by means of the fan (5), the motor (3) is prevented from reaching high temperatures.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the control unit (9) activates or deactivates the fan (5) depending on the current drawn by the motor (3). Thus, the fan (5) is enabled to be operated only when the motor (3) draws high current and the fan (5) is enabled to consume less energy. Since the motor (3) heats up due to the current drawn thereby, by operating the fan (5) depending on the current drawn by the motor (3), the motor (3) is cooled before reaching critical temperatures.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the washing machine (1) comprises an ammeter (11) connected to the motor (3). The control unit (9) activates the fan (5) when the current drawn by the motor (3) reaches a first limit current value (II) predetermined by the producer and deactivates the fan (5) when the current drawn by the motor (3) reaches a second limit current value (12) predetermined by the producer.
By means of the present invention, the cool air around the evaporator (4) is delivered towards the motor (3) by means of the fan (5) and thus, the temperature of the motor (3) surface and the temperature of the air around the motor (3) are enabled to be decreased, thereby a washing machine (1) wherein the motor (3) efficiency is improved is realized.
