Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an improved type of clothes drying machine, preferably of the domestic kind, which operates in a particularly efficient manner.
  • Clothes drying machines which operate using different methods are known, in particular those operating by means of condensation of a flow of hot air which is blown into the drum and which removes the moisture contained in the clothes or by discharging externally said flow of moist hot air.
  • these machines are made by installing a heating and ventilation system, normally a ventilator consisting of a fan and associated electric motor, which draws the air from the outside and by means of suitable ducts heats it and blows it into the drum containing the clothes to be dried.
  • a ventilator consisting of a fan and associated electric motor, which draws the air from the outside and by means of suitable ducts heats it and blows it into the drum containing the clothes to be dried.
  • a heating element is installed inside said duct and, suitably activated, heats the air which passes over it and is blown in by said ventilator, so that hot air is introduced into the drum so as to cause evaporation of the moisture contained in the clothes.
  • the hot air After being introduced into the drum, the hot air causes evaporation of the moisture contained in the clothes and therefore is practically saturated or completely saturated with it; said air is then propelled by said ventilator, creating a continuous flow which is directed into a suitable condensation device, usually consisting of a heat exchanger which is passed through, along the so-called “hot” path, by said moist hot air flow and, along the so-called “cold” path, by a substantially continuous flow of air drawn from the environment and introduced back into the environment after passing through said exchanger.
  • a suitable condensation device usually consisting of a heat exchanger which is passed through, along the so-called “hot” path, by said moist hot air flow and, along the so-called “cold” path, by a substantially continuous flow of air drawn from the environment and introduced back into the environment after passing through said exchanger.
  • said air flow along the "cold" path is also activated and maintained by a ventilator operated by a respective electric motor.
  • Said clothes drying machines are fairly simple, low-cost and operationally reliable machines, but, as is well-known, they have the common drawback that they are significantly noisy owing to the air flow which is blown in at a considerable rate inside the suction and discharge ducts.
  • a drum 1 for containing the clothes to be dried and has, associated with it, a duct 2 for circulation of the drying air; the latter also passes through a condenser 3 which is able to condense the moisture present in the air passing through it, said condenser being passed through by a "cold" air flow, namely one which is drawn from the environment and conveyed to the said condenser 3 via an associated duct 4.
  • Both the ducts 2 and 4 contain inside them two respective fans 5, 6 for actuating the respective drying and cooling air flows.
  • One of said fans, or both of them, consist of two sets of vanes which are arranged on the outer surface of a respective cylindrical form, said two cylindrical forms being understood in the non-material sense.
  • Said cylindrical forms are moreover coaxial and the radius of a first cylindrical form is smaller than the radius of the second cylindrical form.
  • vanes 10, 11, 12 ... of the first set, or outer set are rigidly supported by a wall "P" arranged along a geometric base of the respective cylindrical form, and the supporting structure of said fan is thus formed.
  • vanes of the set of inner vanes 20, 21, 22 ... of the second set are likewise supported on said wall "P" such that the vanes of both sets are joined together and can rotate in synchronism.
  • the latter in order to avoid damaging vortices on the inner vanes, advantageously have a shape which is not flat but curved, i.e. with the associated concavities C1, C2, C3, etc., directed in the sense of rotation.
  • the fan according to the invention is thus formed.
  • Fig. 7 shows two graphs illustrating the flowrate of a fan with and without the invention, the graph A showing the pressure and the consumption of a fan without the invention and the graph B showing the corresponding parameters of the same fan to which the set of inner vanes according to the invention has been added.
