Abstract

The lint filter of a laundry dryer is cleaned by a sucker mouthpiece (2) connected to a suction blower (5), in that the sucker mouthpiece is moved automatically over the filter surface (1). The lint is thereby conveyed by way of the suction line to a central collection point. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Reinigen des Flusensiebes eines Wäschetrockners, insbesondere eines Wäschetrockners für Großwäschereien.The invention relates to a device for cleaning the fluff filter of a clothes dryer, in particular a tumble dryer for large laundries.

In bekannten Wäschetrocknern wird erwärmte Luft durch eine rotierende Umlauftrommel geleitet, um die Feuchtigkeit der in der Trommel umgewälzten Wäsche zu verdampfen. Die aus der Trommel austretende Luft wird dann über einen Flusenfilter zu einer Auslaßöffnung geleitet. Die Flusenfilter können unterschiedlich aufgebaut sein. Die Verunreinigung des Flusenfilters ist ganz beachtlich und es ist von Zeit zu Zeit nötig die eingefangenen Flusen zu entfernen weil sonst die Funktion des Wäschetrockners gestört wird.In known tumble dryers, heated air is passed through a rotating rotating drum passed to the Moisture of the laundry circulated in the drum to evaporate. The air coming out of the drum then becomes a fluff filter Exhaust port directed. The lint filter can be structured differently. The pollution the lint filter is quite remarkable and it is from From time to time it is necessary to remove the lint because otherwise the function of the tumble dryer is disturbed becomes.

Das Reinigen von Hand ist mit Betriebsausfall des Trockners und mit Personalkosten verbunden. Deshalb sind bereits Vorrichtungen zum automatischen Reinigen der Flusenfilter bekannt geworden.Cleaning by hand is due to the failure of the Dryer and associated with personnel costs. That's why are already devices for automatic cleaning the lint filter became known.

Die DE-OS 34 38 575 beschreibt einen Filtersack, welcher mit seiner Öffnung nach unten senkreckt im Luftstrom angeordnet ist und mit einer Schütteleinrichtung versehen ist. Die abgeschüttelten Flusen fallen in eine Flusensammelkammer, welche ab und zu entleert werden muß. DE-OS 34 38 575 describes a filter bag, which with its opening down in the air stream is arranged and with a shaker is provided. The shaken off fluff falls into a lint collection chamber, which empties now and then must become.  

Auch die DE-OS 36 00 058 und 36 00 059 betreffen ein bewegbares Flusensieb um die Flusen in einem Sack zu sammeln. Die Filter brauchen zwar hierbei nicht mehr von Hand von den Flusen befreit zu werden. Jedoch müssen die Flusensammelbehälter in den einzelnen Trocknern mindestens einmal am Tag abgeholt und entleert werden.DE-OS 36 00 058 and 36 00 059 relate a movable lint filter around the lint in one Collecting sack. The filters need this can no longer be freed from the fluff by hand. However, the lint collection containers must be in the individual Dryers are picked up and emptied at least once a day will.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde die vom Flusensieb aufgefangenen Flusen ohne manuelle Tätigkeit an einen zentralen Sammelort zu befördern.The invention is based on the task Fluff filter trapped lint without manual Transport activity to a central collection point.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, daß ein die Siebfläche überstreichendes Saugermundstück an eine bis zum zentralen Sammelort geführte Saugleitung angeschlossen ist. Auf diese Weise ist eine Reinigung des Flusensiebes in den notwendigen Zeitabständen gewährleistet und die aufgefangenen Flusen werden ohne großen Aufwand und Schmutzbelastung an die Sammelstelle befördert.According to the invention, this object is achieved in that a suction mouthpiece over the sieve surface a suction line leading to the central collection point connected. This is a cleaning of the fluff filter at the necessary intervals guaranteed and the collected lint without much effort and pollution Collection point promoted.

Mehere Trockner können an einziges derartiges System angeschlossen sein. In der Zeichnung ist die Erfindung an einem Ausführungsbeispiel dargestellt.Several dryers can be connected to only one such system be connected. In the drawing it is Invention shown on an embodiment.

Die rechteckige ebene Filteroberfläche 1 wird von dem sich über die ganze Breite der Filteroberfläche erstreckenden Saugermundstück 2 mittels eines Antriebes, dem Zylinder 3, hin und her bewegt, wie die Pfeile andeuten. Die Endstellung ist durch 2 a veranschaulicht. Das Saugermundstück 2 ist über einen Schlauch 4 an ein Sauggebläse 5 angeschlossen. Zwischen Sauggebläse 5 und Saugermundstück 1 kann ein Ventil 6 zwischengeschaltet sein. The rectangular, flat filter surface 1 is moved back and forth by the suction mouthpiece 2, which extends over the entire width of the filter surface, by means of a drive, the cylinder 3 , as indicated by the arrows. The end position is illustrated by 2 a. The suction mouthpiece 2 is connected to a suction blower 5 via a hose 4 . A valve 6 can be interposed between the suction fan 5 and the suction mouthpiece 1 .

Zum Absaugen wird das Sauggebläse 5 bzw. das Ventil 6 eingeschaltet. Gleichzeitig wird das Saugermundstück 2 mittels des Zylinders 3 über die Siebfläche in einem günstigen Abstand von der Siebfläche in die Stellung 2 a bewegt. Die abgesaugten Flusen gelangen durch den Schlauch 4 und evtl. weitere Anschlußleitungen zu einer zentralen Flusensammelstelle für gegebenenfalls mehrere Trockner, die mit einer derartigen Reinigungsvorrichtung ausgestattet sind.For suction, the suction fan 5 or the valve 6 is switched on. At the same time the suction nozzle 2 is moved by means of the cylinder 3 on the screen surface in a favorable distance from the screen surface in the position 2 a. The sucked-off lint passes through the hose 4 and possibly further connecting lines to a central lint collecting point for possibly several dryers which are equipped with such a cleaning device.
