Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Wäschetrockner mit einer über die Trocknersteuerung schaltbaren PTC-Widerstandsheizung. The invention relates to a tumble dryer with a PTC resistance heater that can be switched via the dryer control.
Ein derartiger Wäschetrockner ist durch die DE-OS 59 035 bekannt.Such a tumble dryer is known from DE-OS 59 035.
Da der Widerstandswert eines PTC-Widerstands bei niedrigen Temperaturen klein ist, treten bei Wäschetrocknern derart hohe Einschaltströme auf, daß zusätzliche Überlastungsschutzeinrichtungen oder eine Zusatzheizung zum Vorheizen des Kaltleiters notwendig sind. Die Verwendung von PTC-Heizwiderständen beschränkte sich deshalb auf relativ kleine Heizleistungen. Since the resistance value of a PTC resistor is small at low temperatures, this is the case with tumble dryers such high inrush currents that additional overload protection devices or a Additional heating is required to preheat the PTC thermistor. The use of PTC heating resistors therefore limited to relatively small heating outputs.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Wäschetrockner der eingangs genannten Art so auszubilden, daß ein Einsatz von PTC-Widerständen ohne die aufwendigen Zusatzvorrichtungen auch bei Leistungen um 3 KW möglich istThe invention is based on the object of providing a tumble dryer of the type mentioned at the outset train that a use of PTC resistors without the complex additional devices is possible even with a power of 3 KW
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß einmal dadurch gelöst daß die Heizung aus mehreren PTC-Widerständen (Kaltleitern) besteht die so angeordnet sind, daß die PTC-Widerstände durch die Trocknersteuerung aus einer Serienschaltung zu Beginn des Trockenprogrammes zeit- oder temperaturabhängig in eine Paralleloder Teilparallelschaltung umschaltbar sind. Durch die Serienschaltung der Kaltleiter bei Beginn des Trockenprogrammes summieren sich ihre Einzelwiderslände, so daß die Einschaltstromspitze abgesenkt wird. In der Parallelschaltung steht dann während des Trockenprogrammes die volle Heizleistung aller Kaltleiter zur Verfugung.According to the invention, this object is achieved once in that the heater consists of several PTC resistors (PTC thermistors) which are arranged in such a way that the PTC resistors are controlled by the dryer a series connection at the beginning of the drying program, depending on time or temperature, into a parallel or Partial parallel connection are switchable. By connecting the PTC thermistors in series at the start of the drying program Their individual resistances add up, so that the inrush current peak is reduced. In the In parallel connection, the full heating output of all PTC thermistors is available during the drying program Disposal.
Eine weitere Lösung der Aufgabe besteht erfindungsgemäß darin, daß die Heizung aus mehreren PTC-Widerständen (Kaltleitern) besteht die in Parallelschaltung angeordnet sind, und daß zu Beginn des Trockenprogrammes durch die Trocknersteuerung nur so viele PTC-Widerstände an Spannung legbar sind, daß der Einscha'tstrorn unter einem Grenzwert liegt, und daß während des Trockenprogrammes weitere PTC-Widerstände zeit- oder temperaturabhängig unter Berücksichtigung der zulässigen Stromspitze zuschaltbar sind. Die Zeitkonstante, um die versetzt weitere PTC-Widerstände durch ein Programmschaltwerk oder einen Zeitschalter in den Heizstromkreis eingeschaltet werden, ergibt sich aus der Zeitdauer bis der bereits an Spannung liegende PTC-Widerstand die Temperatur erreicht, ab der sein Widerstandswert sprunghaft ansteigtAccording to the invention, a further solution to the problem consists in that the heater consists of several PTC resistors (PTC thermistors) are arranged in parallel, and that at the beginning of the During the drying program, only so many PTC resistors can be connected to voltage by the dryer control that the inrush current is below a limit value, and that during the drying program further PTC resistors, depending on time or temperature, are below Taking into account the permissible current peak can be switched on. The time constant by which the additional PTC resistors switched into the heating circuit by a program switch or a timer results from the time until the PTC resistor, which is already connected to voltage, reaches the temperature reached, from which its resistance increases by leaps and bounds
In vorteilhafter Weise kann eine Verkürzung der Zeitspanne bis zum Einschalten aller HeizwiderständeIt is advantageous to shorten the time until all heating resistors are switched on
ohne Oberschreiten der zulässigen Einschaltstromstärke erreicht werden, wenn die zu Beginn des Trockenprogrammes noch nicht eingeschalteten PTC-Widerstände vom erwärmten Trockenluftstrom beaufschlagt und dadurch vorgewärmt werden. Ein Vorwärmen der zuzuschaltenden PTC-Widerstände ist auch dadurch möglich, daß diese Widerstände in Wärmekontakt mit den bereits beheizten PTC-Widerständen stehen.without exceeding the permissible inrush current can be achieved if the PTC resistors are not yet switched on at the start of the drying program acted upon by the heated dry air flow and thereby preheated. Preheating the PTC resistors to be switched on are also possible in that these resistors are in thermal contact with the already heated PTC resistors.
Bei Wäschetrocknern mit elektronischer Trocknersteuerung wird den später einzuschaltenden PTC-Widerständen beispielsweise ein Thermofühler oder Bimetall zugeordnet, welche nach Erreichen einer vorgegebenen Temperatur diese Heizelemente an Spannung legen. Dabei ist es ebenfalls möglich, die nachzuschaltenden Heizelemente über den Trockenluftstrom oder durch die wirksamer Heizelemente vorzuheizen.In the case of tumble dryers with electronic dryer control, the PTC resistors to be switched on later For example, a thermal sensor or bimetal assigned, which after reaching a apply voltage to these heating elements at the specified temperature. It is also possible to use the downstream heating elements via the dry air flow or the more effective heating elements preheat.
