Definitions

  • the present invention refers to an improved kind of condenser-type clothes drying machine, preferably of the type for use in households, which is particularly quiet in its operation.
  • the motor used to drive the fan circulating the condenser cooling air is usually an non-cooled motor, so that by operating in a continuous manner it tends to heat up to quite a considerable extent. This brings about a number of additional drawbacks in terms of a reduction in the electric efficiency and a need for a higher class of insulation to be adopted, which again means higher production and operating costs.
  • this clothes drying machine should be capable of making use of a motor for drying the cooling air circulating fan, which poses far less severe constraints in terms of heat endurance and electric insulation in its construction and is therefore far less expensive to manufacture.
  • this clothes drying machine must be able to be easily manufactured using existing, readily available materials and techniques, and be competitive in its construction; it shall furthermore be able to incorporate all these improvements without suffering any alteration or reduction in the performance abilities and the reliability thereof.
  • a clothes drying machine comprises an outer casing 1, inside which there are arranged:
  • Said second conduit is a conduit that is substantially open at both extremities thereof; on the one side it is in fact provided with an inlet opening 10 for taking in fresh air from the surrounding ambient, preferably on the rear side of the outer casing of said clothes drying machine, while on the other side, at the outlet from the condenser 6, said conduit splits into a first outlet opening 11 for exhausting part of the flow of air conveyed therethrough outside, i.e. into the ambient surrounding the machine, and into a second outlet opening 12 for exhausting inside the machine, i.e. towards the interior of said outer casing 1, the remaining part of said flow of air conveyed therethrough.
  • the outer casing of the machine is a substantially closed structure, except for the bottom side facing the floor, it practically behaves, as regards said flow of air expanding therewithin, as a noise deadening chamber, or a silencing muffler, and this occurrence is promoted by the considerable mass forming said machine. In this way, therefore, a first beneficial sound-deadening effect is obtained.
  • the question may logically arise as to why not the whole amount of air flowing out of the condenser is actually exhausted into the outer casing of the machine, since this should in theory prove effective in further improving the noise reduction effect, i.e. the quietness of the machine.
  • the answer to such a question lies in the fact that, if all of the air outflow from the condenser would be blown into the machine, the dynamic flow resistance of said leakage zones, and the resistance to the outflow of the air into the outside ambient, would in that case prevent the air from escaping at an adequate rate, i.e. in an adequate amount, thereby giving rise to an increase in the internal pressure that would in turn interfere with a correct passage of the flow of cooling air through the condenser.
  • the above-described solutions allow for a further advantageous improvement to be achieved; in fact, with reference to Figures 2 and 3, the inwardly diverted part 2B of the flow of cooling air is so oriented as to as much as possible hit said motor 9 before diffusing within the outer casing of the appliance. This may quite easily be obtained by arranging the related second outlet opening 12 as close as possible to said motor, duly oriented towards the latter.
  • the above-illustrated improvement carries another advantage with it, namely an advantage in terms of energy usage, owing to a flow of air pre-heated by the motor being actually let into the outer casing of the machine. This obviously causes the temperature of the air inside the outer casing to rise, and this temperature rise is automatically passed over to the drum, which is in this way able to take in part of the heat released by the motor. It can at this point be readily appreciated that the result of a rise in the temperature of the wall of the drum, even if this is brought about from the outside, is an increase of the internal temperature thereof and a corresponding reduction of the amount of heat that must be generated and transmitted by the heating element 4, under clear benefits in terms of overall energy usage.
  • the condenser 6 is made in the form of a parallelepiped, in which two opposite walls 20, 21 are passed through by the flow A of the drying air, whereas other two other opposite walls 22, 23 are passed through by the flow B of the cooling air.
  • a channel that has a first curved section 24 and then a following rectilinear section 25; the curved section 24 of this channel causes the flow B to turn by 180° and to move on further, via the following rectilinear section 25 of the same channel, over a wall of said condenser, in an exactly opposite direction with respect to the flow "B" entering the condenser.
  • channel section 24 may also take different forms, provided that, as this is for instance shown in Figure 5, it is capable of diverting its airflow in an opposite direction with respect to the direction of the inflowing air.
  • said flow B of cooling air must at a certain point be split into two separate flows 2a and 2b to be exhausted outside and redirected into outer casing of the machine, respectively.
  • Such a function is achieved by means of a partition S that is inserted in an appropriate position in said channel section 25, where it is arranged in such a manner as to enable it to assist the shape of said channel section 25 in splitting said two flows, diverting them in two respective directions, and conveying them towards an outflow grille 31 and said motor 9, respectively.
