Definitions

  • Laundry generally has been cleaned with the application of three forms of cleaning action: chemical action, such as with detergents and other cleaning chemicals; mechanical action, such as by agitation, tumbling, rubbing the clothes by hand; and heat, typically applied by heated water.
  • chemical action such as with detergents and other cleaning chemicals

  • Some home laundry markets are "laundry pair” markets where much of the sales are of a matched washer and dryer set (the United States is such a “laundry pair” market).
  • the separate sale of dryers is a fraction of the number of washers. This is because of the limited space in the home, limited drain and vent infrastructure, higher energy costs, and the inefficiency of small drum or condensing dryers which take hours to dry clothes.

  • a roller bearing 61 can be provided.
  • a ball bearing, roller bearing, thrust bearing, or other bearing types (or combinations thereof) can be employed as desired.

  • a retainer is provided for retaining the tubular part adjacent the closed end (for keeping them together such that they don't drift apart during rotation).
  • rollers such as cam followers may be utilized for providing for retaining the tubular part adjacent the closed end.
  • the retainer comprises a retainer ring 65 which is bolted or screwed to the flange 46 of the closed end 40.
  • the retainer ring overlies a portion of the bearing and helps to keep the bearing captured axially along both the tubular part and the closed end, thereby helping the bearing to act as a thrust bearing and locking the tubular part and the closed end together.
  • At least one opening 44 extends through the bulkhead portion 41 for passage of air and/or water therethrough.
  • multiple openings 44 are provided in the bulkhead 41 for moving air into the drum, for moving water into the drum, for removing air from the drum, and for removing water from the drum.
  • the apparatus allows for free air and/or water movement through the bulkhead 41 , even though (and even during, if desired) the remainder of the drum can rotate or oscillate relative to the fixed bulkhead.
  • This peripheral rotating joint allows for a large bulkhead and considerable flexibility in the selection and placement of air/water apertures through the bulkhead.
  • an axial rotating joint can be employed, as opposed to the peripheral rotating joint depicted in FIGS. 1-7.
  • the interior of the rotating drum 120, 220 is passed through a center axial opening to allow air or water to be pumped in or out.
  • a more rudimentary rotating joint 160, 260 is provided in these embodiments.
  • these configurations have the disadvantage, relative to that show in FIGS. 1-7, that fewer apertures are provided and perhaps only one, with movement being one way at a time and one media at a time.
  • the bulkhead 41 is preferably mounted to the housing or other structure of the machine such that the drum 20 is rotatable about an axis that is generally offset at an angle a relative to a generally horizontal axis.
  • the pivot axis angle a is generally between about 10 degrees and 40 degrees. More preferably, the pivot axis angle a is generally between about 10 degrees and 35 degrees. Most preferably, the pivot axis angle a is generally between about 15 degrees and 20 degrees. This tilt of the drum aids in both the washing cycle and the drying cycle by providing a tumbling agitation action.
  • the front door 37 generally sealingly engages the open end of the drum 20.
  • the front door 37 can be configured for sealing engagement or other air tight engagement with the drum 20 as desired.
  • the interior of the drum is preferably air tight, for example, such that the drum 20 is capable of being pressurized without air leasing through one or more of the seals.
  • a vacuum can be provided to enable negative pressure within the drum 20.
  • the tilt or angle of the pivot axis can be chosen to be lower for greater tumbling effect or can be chosen to be higher for greater protection against water leakage. Taking such considerations to a logical extreme, if the pivot axis angle were increased all the way to 90 degrees (so that the pivot axis is vertical), maximum protection against water leakage through the door 37 is achieved, but at the expense of eliminating tumbling action (which works with gravity). At the other extreme, if the pivot axis angle were decreased to zero (a horizontal pivot axis), tumbling action is maximized, but protection against leakage through the door is at a minimum.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil lave-linge/sèche-linge comprenant un joint rotatif pour permettre l'introduction d'eau et/ou d'air dans le tambour, en dépit de la rotation du tambour. Dans des exemples de modes de réalisation, l'appareil comprend un bâti, une cloison fixe attachée à demeure au bâti, et un tambour monté pour une rotation dans au moins une direction. Dans des exemples de modes de réalisation, le tambour est conçu pour contenir une quantité d'eau de lavage et est monté à étanchéité à la cloison au niveau d'un joint rotatif, une partie du tambour étant emboîtable et montée rotative à l'intérieur d'une partie de la cloison. Dans un mode de réalisation, une ou plusieurs ouvertures s'étendent à travers la partie de la cloison pour permettre le passage d'air et/ou d'eau.
