燥する複合装置に関する。BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a laundry washing / drying composite having a function of automatically removing foam when it overflows and accumulates in a circuit for circulation of drying air. Regarding the device.
【０００２】[0002]
【従来の技術】従来技術において、運転サイクルをプロ
グラムするための手段により制御される運転モードを備
えた洗濯乾燥複合装置が周知である。これは通常、洗浄
段階の終了において１又は複数の洗濯物すすぎ段階を行
う機能を有している。2. Description of the Prior Art In the prior art, a washer / dryer combination machine is known which has a mode of operation controlled by means for programming the cycle of operation. It usually has the function of performing one or more laundry rinse steps at the end of the wash step.
【０００３】しかしながら、特定の運転条件下では、即
ち例えば洗剤の装荷量が過剰なときないし泡を特に大量
に発生する種類の洗剤を使用したとき、洗濯槽内で泡が
過剰に発生してしまい、この泡が、洗濯ドラムの回転の
効果も加わって、洗濯槽内に存在する到達可能な全ての
穴の中へ侵入する傾向がある。特に、洗濯乾燥複合装置
では、過剰の泡は、高温多湿空気の再循環用の回路が洗
濯槽内へ開口している両開口において、同再循環用回路
の中へ侵入する傾向がある。更にひどい事態では、大量
の泡が同回路に詰まってしまうことがあり、また当然だ
がこの泡は洗濯物から除去された汚れを大量に含んでい
る。However, under certain operating conditions, for example, when the detergent loading is excessive or when a detergent of a type that produces a particularly large amount of foam is used, excessive foam is generated in the washing tub. This foam tends to penetrate into all reachable holes present in the wash tub, with the added effect of rotating the washing drum. Particularly, in the combined washer / dryer, excessive foam tends to enter the recirculation circuit at both openings where the circuit for recirculation of hot and humid air opens into the washing tub. In worse cases, large amounts of foam can clog the circuit and, of course, the foam contains large amounts of dirt that has been removed from the laundry.
【０００４】このような状況になると発生する二種類の
問題についてここで説明する。Two types of problems that occur in such a situation will be described here.
【０００５】一つめの問題は、過剰な泡が全ての穴を閉
塞することにより洗濯槽を事実上密閉容器にしてしま
い、こうなると、洗浄段階後にすすぎ段階が何回か行わ
れるとき、そこでそれぞれ適切な量の水が使用されるべ
きであるが、水を導入した分の容積を等価な体積の空気
の排出により補償するということにならないため、洗濯
槽内の圧力が少し上昇した状態になってしまうというこ
とである。尚ここでは、空気の排出は、水の導入のため
の導管を経由してさえもなされない。なぜなら、水上を
浮遊する泡の上層部は、この導入管の位置よりも高くな
ってしまうので、迅速に、この水の導入管を、水の導入
は許容するが空気の排出はできないような状態に閉塞し
てしまうからである。The first problem is that the excess foam causes the washing tub to become virtually a closed container by closing all the holes, which can lead to several rinsing steps after the washing step, respectively. An appropriate amount of water should be used, but this does not mean that the volume of water introduced will be compensated by the discharge of an equivalent volume of air, resulting in a slight increase in pressure in the wash tub. It means that it will end up. It should be noted here that the discharge of air is not even done via a conduit for the introduction of water. Because the upper layer of the bubbles floating above the water is higher than the position of this introduction pipe, so quickly, this water introduction pipe is in a state where water is allowed to be introduced but air cannot be discharged. Because it will be blocked.
【０００６】これでは、圧力センサーが実際の導入され
たすすぎ水のレベルに相当するよりも高い圧力を検知す
ることになり、その結果、水流の導入を閉め切るのが早
すぎることとなり、これでは多々の不具合を生じるのは
明らかである。This would result in the pressure sensor sensing a higher pressure than would correspond to the actual level of rinse water introduced, which would result in premature shutoff of the flow of water, which would then occur. Obviously, it causes many problems.
【０００７】この問題の対策案として、乾燥処理不能な
洗濯のみ可能な装置においては、適当に大型の通気管
を、洗濯槽の最上部とその上方に配置された配水手段と
の間に配置することがなされてきた。しかしながら、こ
の対策案は、ここまで述べてきたような洗濯乾燥装置に
関しては応用できないものである。なぜなら、乾燥処理
運転中には、このような通気管は、槽内に強制導入され
た高温空気を外部に脱出させる通路の役割を果たしてし
まうからである。As a measure against this problem, in a washing-only device which cannot be dried, a suitably large ventilation pipe is arranged between the uppermost part of the washing tub and the water distribution means arranged above it. Things have been done. However, this measure cannot be applied to the washer / dryer as described above. This is because during the drying process operation, such a ventilation pipe serves as a passage for escaping the hot air forcedly introduced into the tank to the outside.
【０００８】従って、洗濯乾燥装置における対策案とし
ては、羽根車（インペラー）の基部から配水手段まで直
接通気させるための導管を設置することがなされてき
た。この導管は、通気を許容する上、それ自体の長さの
ため、泡がこれを完全に閉塞して外部に溢れ出てしまう
現象を防ぐことには役立った。Therefore, as a countermeasure for the washing / drying apparatus, a conduit for directly ventilating the base of the impeller (impeller) to the water distribution means has been installed. This conduit allowed ventilation and, due to its length, helped to prevent the bubble from completely occluding and overflowing.
【０００９】しかしながら、この構成は、乾燥用空気を
吸い込ませるための導管に泡が詰まった場合に槽内の圧
力が上昇するというここでの問題の回避にはなってな
い。However, this configuration does not avoid the problem here that the pressure in the tank rises when the conduit for sucking the drying air is clogged with bubbles.
【００１０】第二の問題は、連続されるすすぎ・脱水段
階中に、再循環回路が機能的にされていない場合、最終
脱水後乾燥段階の始まる前になってさえもこの回路中に
泡が残存する、ということである。A second problem is that during the continuous rinse / dewatering stage, if the recirculation circuit is not functional, bubbles will form in this circuit even after the final dewatering and before the beginning of the drying stage. It means that it will remain.
【００１１】こうなると、その後に続く乾燥段階におい
て、乾燥用空気が、空気を加熱・再循環するための回路
（この空気中の水分は凝縮される）を通過するとき、こ
の空気再循環回路中に存在している泡は、この回路から
槽内に再び戻ってしまう。これでは、洗濯物を不可逆的
に汚染してしまう。泡内に存在していた汚れや他の物質
は洗濯物から除去不能となる。Then, in the subsequent drying step, when the drying air passes through the circuit for heating and recirculating the air (the water in the air is condensed), the air in the air recirculation circuit is dried. The bubbles existing in the tank will return to the tank again from this circuit. This irreversibly pollutes the laundry. Dirt and other substances that were present in the foam cannot be removed from the laundry.
【００１２】[0012]
【発明が解決しようとする課題】したがって、泡が空気

具合を引き起こす可能性がある。The apparatus is capable of performing at least one washing cycle including at least one rinsing step after the washing step, and the foam generated in the washing tub during the washing step is excessive in the washing cycle. Due to the effects of generation and rotation of the drum, there is a possibility of deep penetration into the circuit for circulating the drying air through the holes leading to the suction pipe 6 and the conduit 9 for air reintroduction, If left as it is, bubbles may remain there even after the rinsing step to cause the above-mentioned problems.

とができる。In order to avoid this, in this device,
Immediately after the end of the washing phase, the impeller 7 for circulating air in the drying conduit is used for a short period of time by establishing an air flow in the conduit to push foam and reintroduce it into the washing tub. It is possible to remove bubbles completely from the trace.
【００２８】実験によると、この回路中で短時間泡を通

はないということが観察されてきている。According to experiments, it has been observed that passing bubbles for a short time in this circuit has no particular adverse effect on the components such as the condenser, the impeller 7, and the heating means 8 provided in this circuit. There is.
【００２９】それゆえ、この運転では、たとえ泡が存在

To enable that. Moreover, the removal of foam from the conduits ensures the advantage that the subsequent drying step is carried out in the absence of any foam.
