Definitions

  • the invention relates to a laundry drum for a laundry treatment machine with a drum shell having circumferentially distributed structures that rise from the cylindrical shape of the mounted in the laundry drum drum shell (see DE-A-23 63 935 ).
  • Such a laundry drum is off DE 44 37 986 A1 known.
  • structures in the jacket sheet of a laundry drum in the form of staggered quadrangular or hexagonal arch surfaces are shown therein.
  • Such structures have been used in laundry drums mainly because they give the structured jacket sheet on the one hand a certain dimensional stability, which affects above all in a reduced acoustic tendency to oscillate.
  • such a structure also has a certain decorative effect.
  • a previously suspected beneficial effect on the mechanical laundry treatment could not be demonstrated in this type of structure.
  • the invention has for its object to find a casing sheet structure for a laundry drum described above, on the one hand has the advantageous properties of structures of the prior art, but also provides the basics for their formation to favorably influence the mechanical laundry treatment during the rotation of the drum.
  • structures are required, in addition to the strength-forming effect exert a certain frictional effect on the laundry, which enables the rotation of the laundry drum to take along the laundry parts over the largest possible angle of rotation.
  • each structure of a line-shaped elevation which is closed in itself, consists, and within the annular closed, linear elevations concentric, lenticular elevations are arranged.
  • projections can in many ways form such that they have a beneficial effect on the frictional effect on the laundry during drum rotation. Since they also stabilize the drum shell to the extent that the material used for the drum plate is reduced to a minimum, that no acoustic oscillation tendencies are to be feared and that the surface properties of such a shaped lateral surface for the laundry treatment are almost ideal, a laundry drum formed according to the invention is an optimum represent the use in the laundry treatment.
  • Such elevations may be arranged in a more or less regular distribution on the drum shell.
  • the stiffening of the drum shell resulting from the provision of the structures according to the invention has the additional advantageous effect that the tendency of the drum shell to form acoustic resonances and a resulting roar is reduced, if it caused by the laundry under normal use or in particular by the drive motor noise from the inside of a laundry treatment machine to which the laundry drum belongs is charged.
  • the annular closed, linear elevations can be arranged in rows, which are oriented in the circumferential direction.
  • the elevations may follow straight rows that extend at least partially parallel or not parallel to each other and / or to the circumferential direction of the drum.
  • the rows may be circumferentially closed or interrupted. They may have equal or unequal distances to each other and may be the same or at least partially unequal or different in width. You can wave lines, z. B. sine waves, zigzag lines or helices follow and in relation to the axial direction of the drum seen in phase with each other or offset from each other.
  • the elevations of a row can be the same size and have a different series of different diameter. Even within a row, the diameters of the surveys may differ.
  • the annularly closed, linear elevations can be circular or elliptical.
  • the drum shell has in particular no holes for the passage of fluid.
  • Fig. 1 is shown as a laundry treatment machine, a laundry drying machine whose mounted on the front side 1 feed opening 2 with the door removed gives an insight into the interior of the laundry drum 3. It has a cylindrical drum shell 4, on the inside of several Wäschemit Meeting 5 are evenly distributed. In addition, the drum shell 4 has inwardly rows 6 of annular bulged elevations, which will be explained in more detail with reference to the following figures. Since Wäschemit Meeting 5 like to be kept flat in drying machines, these surveys on the one hand ensure that a particularly gentle surface texture is achieved, which nevertheless generates an increased friction effect to the laundry out, which despite the flat driver lifted the laundry at the drum rotation very far up from where it can fall freely through the dry air flow in the laundry drum. In addition, the surveys help to form the drum shell mechanically stiff, which otherwise fail to fear acoustic interference. On the other hand can be saved by lower wall thicknesses of the drum shell 4 by the considerable gain in rigidity material.
  • rows 6 of annular ridges 8 may be made according to FIG Fig. 1 seen in cross section of the sheet of such a drum shell 4 a in Fig. 2 or 3 take the form shown.
  • the elevation 8 gradually swings inward from the cylindrical shape of the region 7 of the drum shell 4, forms an annular ridge line with a diameter D and also swings softly back into the cylindrical shape of the region 7.
  • the remaining in the cylindrical shape areas 7 are closed in a laundry drying machine that does not require liquid exchange for the treatment process, ie they have no flood holes.
  • the distances A of the symmetry lines of the elevations 8 in FIGS. 2 and 3 equal to each other. These distances can also be unequal in size. This may play a role in such treatment processes where the laundry within the drum is unevenly distributed during its rotation.
  • Fig. 3 is a variant too Fig. 2 shown in the present invention within each annular elevation 8, a concentric lenticular elevation 9 with a diameter d - hereinafter referred to briefly as lens 9 - embossed into the cylindrical surface 7 of the laundry drum is.
  • lens 9 - embossed into the cylindrical surface 7 of the laundry drum is.
  • Fig. 4 has the drum shell 4 according to the invention on its inner side rows 6 of annular elevations 8 with lenses 9, which wrap around the drum shell in the circumferential direction 10 in a closed circle.
  • the rows 6 in the circumferential direction 10 may also have a limited length, for example in that an elevation 8 is omitted at regular intervals (eg every fifth elevation 8) or at irregular intervals.
  • the rows are shown at regular intervals A.
  • adjacent rows can also be arranged at unequal distances A. It is conceivable, for example, that the rows 6 are more closely spaced in the vicinity of the drum bases of a laundry drum than in the center of the drum.
  • the surveys must also not according to Fig. 4 be circular; their basic form can also be that of an ellipse.
  • the rows 6 also need not necessarily be parallel to the sidelines of the drum shell 4. There may be reasons for the rows 6 to wrap helically around the circumferential direction 10. Likewise, there may be reasons why rows 6 are odd. For example, alignments of the rows 6 in waveform or in zigzag lines are possible.
  • the values of the height H of the annular elevations 8 and of the lenses 9 can also be shaped. They can also be unequal in direct comparison. For example, it can be argued that the value of the height of the lens 9 is greater than the value of the height H of the annular elevation eighth
  • the values of the height H of the annular elevations 8 and / or 9 with each other may differ.
  • this slope can suddenly fall back to the initial value. This creates a discontinuity that leads in one drum rotation to a gentle laundry treatment, but in the other direction of rotation to a more intense treatment, if desired. Otherwise, however, regardless of the direction of rotation control of the laundry drum 3, the value of the height H alternately rise and fall steadily.
