Definitions

  • the invention relates to a laundry drying appliance, having a sieve for sifting out bodies, in particular fluff, from a process air stream flowing through a process air duct of the laundry drying appliance, and having a cleaning device for cleaning the sieve, the sieve being arranged in space at an angle ( ⁇ ) is arranged obliquely, at least one cleaning opening for supplying a cleaning liquid onto a screen surface of the screen is arranged at an upper portion of the screen, and the screen is stationary.
  • the invention also relates to a method for cleaning a filter of such a laundry drying device.
  • From the DE 100 02 743 A1 is a heat pump tumble dryer with a cleaning device for the heat exchanger.
  • the EP 0 269 864 A1 the result is a filter device with liquid-wetted filter elements for a ventilation system.
  • the KR 10 2007 0076853 A The result is a tumble dryer with a fluff filter that can be cleaned with a liquid.
  • the JP H06 2907 A the result is a filter for a ventilation device which can be cleaned by means of a liquid and which is positioned at an angle with respect to a gas stream flowing through.
  • a dryer for drying laundry by means of an air flow is known.
  • a screen for filtering lint from an air flow in the process air duct is arranged in the area of an end shield, which screen forms a first lint filter.
  • the fluff collected in the process air duct on the filter is scraped off the filter fabric of the fluff filter by means of a squeegee and stored in a container arranged adjacent to the squeegee and the filter. The squeegee and the container thus form, together with other components, a first cleaning device.
  • the container has relatively small dimensions. Fluff from around 7 to 10 drying processes can be collected in it. Since the fluff is stored in the dry state, it takes up a relatively large volume. On the one hand, access to the collection container is restricted in these dryers, and on the other hand the collection volume is limited by its arrangement in a space-limited zone of the dryer, resulting in a relatively frequent maintenance interval for disposing of the fluff from the container.
  • the dryer features furthermore via a heater as a heat source and an air-to-air heat exchanger as a heat sink in the process air duct.
  • U.S. 2006/0123854 A1 relates to a washing machine combined with a dryer.
  • a cabinet is provided, a tub is installed in the cabinet, a vent hose is attached to an outer surface of the tub, a lint filter assembly has an end connected to the vent hose to remove lint from air exiting the tub is vented and a vent line is connected to the other end of the lint filter assembly.
  • the lint filter assembly collects lint from the moist air flowing through it. The collected lint deposits on a filter of the lint filter assembly, and the deposit of the lint is removed by injecting water from a water inlet pipe onto the filter from the front.
  • the removed fluff is fed into the tub through the vent hose.
  • the lint filter assembly installed in the cabinet is inclined at a predetermined angle toward the front of the washing machine so that a user can easily remove the filter unit from the front of the washing machine and repair the lint filter assembly.
  • WO 2009/015919 A1 relates to an arrangement for automatically cleaning air filters, in particular those designed for use as applied to the drying circuit of a washing machine for clothes, which operates according to a heat pump principle, having at least one sharp-jet injection nozzle for injecting liquid and at least one air filter unit, wherein the liquid injection nozzle is mounted so as to be able to move relative to a fixed frame, the relative movement being brought about by at least one actuator means connected thereto.
  • the air filter unit and/or the liquid injection nozzle can be connected to the frame by means of a four-bar linkage.
  • the relative movement of the air filter unit to the injection nozzle is required for cleaning, which requires a high level of equipment and a large amount of space.
  • the laundry drying appliance according to the invention having a sieve for sifting out bodies, in particular fluff, from a process air flow flowing through a process air duct of the laundry drying appliance, and having a cleaning device for cleaning the sieve, the sieve being inclined in space at an angle ( ⁇ ) relative to the process air flow flowing through is arranged, at least one cleaning opening for supplying a cleaning liquid to a screen surface of the screen is arranged in an upper area of the screen and the screen is stationary, is characterized in that the process air duct has a substantially vertical extension at least in the area of the screen, and namely with a flow direction of a process air guided in the process air duct running predominantly from top to bottom.
  • Such a filter can easily be cleaned of adhering lint without manual intervention on the part of a user of the household appliance by means of an automatically operated cleaning device, which flushes a cleaning liquid over the lint filter in such a way that the adhering lint is removed from a filter surface of the filter.
  • the screen is arranged in space at an angle relative to the flow of process air flowing through.
  • a cleaning liquid applied to the screen e.g. B. water
  • applying the cleaning liquid under pressure can further increase the cleaning performance.
  • the sieve is installed stationary (and is therefore not specifically moved for cleaning) in order to achieve a simple arrangement.
  • the effective cleaning effect can be made possible in particular by arranging the cleaning opening in the upper area.
  • the process air duct has, at least in the area of the screen, a substantially vertical extension (i.e. vertical or deviating insignificantly for the purpose) with a flow direction of a process air guided in the process air duct running predominantly from top to bottom, which is very streamlined and advantageous for one the cleaning liquid is drained.
  • At least one cleaning opening for supplying the cleaning liquid to a screen surface of the screen is arranged in an upper area of the screen.
  • the cleaning liquid can be applied to the screen surface particularly easily in a compact design.
  • the arrangement in an upper area can in particular include the cleaning opening being arranged above, in particular essentially directly above, the screen. In other words, the cleaning opening can essentially directly border the screen.
  • the cleaning liquid can be applied to the screen in a particularly simple and complete manner.
  • the at least one cleaning opening can lead to a common liquid line and/or to a common inflow chamber of the cleaning device.
  • the at least one cleaning opening can be embodied as a nozzle for an increased cleaning effect, even in the case of bodies adhering to a greater extent on the filter, in particular fluff.
  • a large-area wetting of the screen can also be ensured by shaping the nozzle jet.
  • a cleaning liquid can be directed through a nozzle and guided over the screen surface of the screen with increased entraining force.
  • the at least one cleaning opening can be aligned flush with the screen surface of the screen.
  • the at least one cleaning opening is aligned at an angle, in particular a small angle, to the surface of the screen.
  • the angle is advantageously less than 5°.
  • the liquid line preferably opens into an inflow chamber, which is partially separated from the at least one cleaning opening by an intermediate wall. This enables the cleaning liquid to be distributed more evenly over a large number of such cleaning openings.
  • the inflow chamber can have a bypass on the underside for draining residual water, so that it does not remain in it and cause unpleasant odors over time.
  • a discharge channel can be formed in a lower area of the screen for disposal of cleaning liquid conducted over the screen. This preferably bypasses the condenser and ends behind the condenser again in the process air duct. Used cleaning liquid can thus be disposed of together with condensed water from the condenser, so that no separate disposal means need to be provided.
  • At least a section of the discharge channel adjacent to the screen can be integrated with the screen. In this way, it can be achieved that no projections such as sharp edges, burrs, etc., on which fluff etc. could get caught, occur at the transition from filter to drain channel. This supports a complete cleaning of the sieve. For this purpose, it can be particularly advantageous if a screen surface of the screen is arranged higher or flush with it in a transition area to the discharge channel.
  • the cleaning device can be installed in a bearing plate, in particular a front bearing plate.
  • the cleaning device can be installed in a particularly compact and streamlined manner in a front process air duct, which is directly connected to a laundry drum.
  • pressure losses in the process air can be avoided, e.g. B. could be caused by turbulence.
  • the screen is integrated into the cleaning device, since this minimizes manufacturing tolerances and improves the cleaning result. It is particularly preferred if the at least one cleaning opening is integrated into a screen frame of the screen. It is also particularly preferred if the discharge channel or a part thereof adjoining the screen is integrated into the screen frame.
  • the sieve can be permanently installed or removable in the laundry drying device.
  • the screen of a laundry drying device is cleaned by means of a cleaning device, wherein the screen is arranged at an angle obliquely in space and a cleaning liquid advantageously from above over the obliquely built-in Sieve is passed.
  • the guiding can be essentially pressureless pouring.
  • the activation of the method can be triggered automatically by a control device of the household appliance as required, in fixed cycles and/or manually.

  • a lint filter 7 extends through the process air duct 5 in order to filter or sift out at least a portion of the bodies F from the process air.
  • These are, for example, a condenser or a heating device, which are used to dehumidify or heat up the cleaned process air L* before the cleaned process air L* is blown back into the laundry drum 3 .
  • the process air duct 5 runs vertically from top to bottom in the area with the fluff filter 7 inserted therein.
  • the fluff filter 7 is used at an angle ⁇ obliquely through the process air duct 5 leading into this. Accordingly, the process air flow flowing through the process air duct 5 flows through it obliquely.
