Definitions

the invention relates to a tumble dryer according to the preamble of patent claim 1 and a method for moistening laundry by means of such a tumble dryer according to the patent claim 13.
laundry laundry dryers For drying laundry laundry dryers have long been used.
the wet laundry to be dried is placed by a user through an opening of the tumble dryer in the laundry drum and closed this opening.
the laundry drum is then rotated so that the laundry can be moved around.
hot process air is introduced into the laundry drum in the direction of the axis of rotation of the laundry drum rotation, which dries the laundry.
the hot process air is supplied comparatively dry, so that they absorb moisture from the laundry and can carry out with him out of the laundry drum. In this way, the laundry can be dried.
Tumble dryers with steam smoothing or English steamfinishing are also available.
the aim of this function is that the user can not remove the laundry completely dry but with a certain low residual moisture from the clothes dryer, so that the laundry, for example, the laundry. during the immediate subsequent ironing, it is easier to smooth and thus gentle.
the laundry in the tumble dryer is first completely dried. Then, in an additional step, water is sprayed from a nozzle onto the dry laundry. For this, e.g. By means of a pump, spray water is removed from the condensation container of the tumble dryer in order to avoid having to use additional water.
spray water is removed from the condensation container of the tumble dryer in order to avoid having to use additional water.
the sprayed water can not or hardly evaporate due to the relatively low temperature of the laundry, this is more a moistening of the laundry by spraying than by vapor deposition.
a washing machine known which can produce water vapor.
water is passed into a steam device inside the housing of the washing machine.
the steam device is a plate which can be heated by induction from a surrounding coil. The water evaporates on the plate and is then treated as water vapor via a nozzle in the interior of the Laundry drum initiated.
the laundry to be washed can be moistened by steam.
the present invention thus presents the problem of providing a clothes dryer described above, which can provide the possibility of a function "steam smoothing" in a simpler manner than previously known. At least an alternative to known clothes dryers should be created with this feature.
the present invention thus relates to a clothes dryer with a laundry drum for receiving laundry to be dried and at least one contactless heating unit, which is designed and arranged to heat the laundry drum without contact.
the heating unit can act directly on the laundry drum to heat or heat them.
the heat drum can in turn heat the laundry that has absorbed it and thereby dry.
the air inside the laundry drum can be heated by the laundry drum. Additional or alternatively usable possibilities for heating and drying the laundry in the laundry drum are not excluded thereby.
the tumble dryer according to the invention is characterized by a liquid dispensing unit, which is designed and arranged to deliver a liquid to the laundry drum.
this liquid is water, which is preferably at least partially the condensation of moisture removed by the current or previous drying process of the laundry in the laundry drum.
the present invention is based on the idea that in a tumble dryer whose drying takes place at least partially via a heating of the laundry drum, the heating or heating of the laundry drum can also be used to generate steam, if this, for example, as a function "steam smoothing" or "Steamfinish" should be enabled.
the contactless heating unit to set only a correspondingly high temperature of eg about 90 ° C and then deliver a liquid such as water on the laundry drum to achieve evaporation of the liquid on the laundry drum.
steam can be generated within the laundry drum, so that the laundry can be moistened with steam. This can be done with water vapor instead of water spray.
steam a better smoothing of the laundry can be achieved than with the moistening of the laundry by the spraying with liquid.
the liquid dispensing unit is to be directed to the upper region of the laundry drum, since this is usually laundry-free.
This can be done with existing liquid dispensing units, for example via an adapter, which deflects the direction of the liquid delivery and, if necessary, the pressure increases here.
an implementation of the present invention in existing dryers of this type can be done easily and quickly, without the need for the production of inventive dryer new clothes dryer must be made.
the position of the liquid dispensing unit may be. For this purpose be maintained.
the liquid dispensing unit is formed as a spray unit, so that the liquid can be sprayed onto the laundry drum.
the liquid can be separated into smaller to finer drops to a mist instead of a jet or instead of larger drops.
the comparatively small amounts of liquid can reach a larger surface of the laundry drum and be evaporated faster or even completely, so that a more efficient and faster steam generation can be achieved.
the liquid dispensing unit is configured and arranged to deliver the liquid to the inside of the laundry drum.
the steam generation can be done closer to the laundry, so that the laundry can be moistened faster with steam. Also can in this way one higher proportion of the generated steam are absorbed by the laundry instead of condensing on other surfaces within the laundry drum again.
the non-contact heating unit and the liquid discharging unit are offset from each other in the circumferential direction of the laundry drum.
the laundry drum can first be heated by the heating unit before the liquid is dispensed onto the laundry drum.
the liquid dispensing unit is preferably arranged downstream of the heating unit in the direction of rotation of the laundry drum.
the non-contact heating unit is arranged fixed radially outside the laundry drum.
the non-contact heating unit can be arranged, for example, at a radial distance from the laundry drum of preferably up to 2.5 cm in order to maintain a sufficient distance, so that even during operation safe touches can be avoided, but at the same time can be done an efficient heating of the laundry drum.
the fixed arrangement of the contactless heating unit a simple electrical supply can be achieved.
a secure and permanently durable positioning and alignment with respect to the rotatable laundry drum can be achieved.
the contactless heating unit may e.g. be placed in the top of one of the corners of the housing of the clothes dryer, where usually next to the cylindrical laundry drum is sufficient space for an additional non-contact heating unit. Furthermore, a sufficient distance to the low-lying region of the laundry drum can be taken in this way, so that the laundry, which can preferably accumulate down in the laundry drum, can be protected by the contactless heating unit before heating the laundry drum.
the non-contact heating unit is an induction heating unit.
This may comprise a coil or a plurality of coils, which may be supplied with a high-frequency alternating current or may cause inductive heating by means of a primary magnetic field in the radially outer layer of the material of the laundry drum.
the laundry drum is for this purpose preferably formed from a ferromagnetic material or has at least partially on a ferromagnetic material.
the heating effect on ferromagnetic materials in the vicinity of the induction heating unit can be limited, so that unwanted effects on other elements within the tumble dryer can be avoided.
the contactless heating unit is designed to be operated with a heating power as a function of the quantity of liquid discharged from the liquid dispensing unit onto the laundry drum, or vice versa.
a control or regulation of the steam generation can be carried out by the temperature of the laundry drum can be adjusted by adjusting the heating power to the amount of liquid dispensed thereon. This can be achieved on the one hand, that the maximum possible amount of steam can be generated in order to accelerate this.
the discharged liquid can also be completely evaporated by the laundry drum in order to avoid wetting of the laundry by excess non-evaporated liquid.
the contactless heating unit is designed to be operated with a heating power as a function of the speed of the laundry drum, or vice versa.
the heating power can be optimized by e.g. it is ensured that the highest possible speed of the laundry drum driven, but this is below the contact speed.
the temperature of the laundry drum can be set as high as possible in order to achieve the highest possible heat conduction.
the temperature of the laundry drum is kept low enough not to damage the items to be dried laundry.
the temperature of the laundry drum via the contactless heating unit can be adapted to these requirements in order to achieve an optimum result. Therefore, the speed of the laundry drum decreases, so the performance of the contactless heating unit can be adjusted.
the delivery of the liquid to the laundry drum can also be taken into account, as described above.
the clothes dryer further comprises a temperature sensor that is configured and arranged to detect a temperature of the laundry drum.
a temperature detection of the laundry drum can be done, for example, and only or as long as to deliver liquid to the laundry drum when the laundry drum has a temperature of eg at least about 90 ° C, which can lead to effective evaporation of the liquid.
the required detection of the temperature of the laundry drum can be done via a temperature sensor.
the temperature sensor is preferably to be arranged at a location above the laundry drum or in the upper region of the space of the laundry drum, so that the temperature detection of the laundry drum can be made there, where usually no laundry is applied to the inside of the laundry drum, as this could falsify the measurement result.
the contactless heating unit is usually arranged in this area of the tumble dryer, so that the laundry can not be overheated and damaged by the contactless heating unit if the laundry drum comes to a standstill during operation of the contactless heating unit at least for a short time. It can also be achieved hereby that the temperature sensor can detect the temperature of the laundry drum as directly as possible when this region of the laundry drum has passed the contactless heating unit and thus has its maximum temperature of the current revolution of the laundry drum.
the temperature sensor is arranged fixed radially outside the laundry drum. This can simplify the electrical supply of the temperature sensor and signal transmission away from the temperature sensor and make safer. This can also be cheaper than a temperature sensor that would move with the laundry drum. Furthermore, a relative to the rotating laundry drum fixedly arranged temperature sensor can detect him passing rotating laundry drum over its entire circumference.
the clothes dryer further includes a humidity sensor configured and arranged to detect moisture within the laundry drum. In this way, this measurand can also be detected, e.g. to control or regulate the use of evaporation at all or the amount of steam generated depending on the humidity within the laundry drum.
the humidity sensor is disposed radially outwardly of the laundry drum. This can simplify the electrical supply of the moisture sensor and the signal transmission away from the moisture sensor and make it safer. This can also be cheaper than a moisture sensor that would move with the laundry drum.
the temperature of the laundry drum is detected and the delivery of the liquid to the laundry drum is not started until a predetermined temperature of the laundry drum is reached.
This temperature may e.g. at about 90 ° C, since from this temperature effective and rapid evaporation of the liquid can be achieved.
the delivery of liquid to the laundry drum takes place only when the fastest possible and complete evaporation of the liquid due to the sufficient heating of the laundry drum can also be ensured. This can also ensure that the laundry is not moistened by non-evaporated liquid.
the delivery of the liquid to the laundry drum and thus the steam generation can be ended. This may be the case after a predetermined period of time, but also after a predetermined number of revolutions, after a predetermined amount of the dispensed liquid, when falling below a predetermined lower limit temperature of the laundry drum and / or upon reaching a predetermined Moisture value within the laundry drum.
the abovementioned predetermined values can be fixed or can also be determined as a function of one another or of other further variables. For example, the period of time after the lapse of the dispensing of the liquid is stopped on the laundry drum, depending on eg the detected temperature of the laundry drum can be determined.
FIG. 1 shows a perspective schematic representation of a laundry dryer 1 according to the invention.
FIG. 2 shows the representation of FIG. 1 in section from above.
FIG. 3 shows the representation of FIG. 1 in partial section from the front.
FIG. 4 shows the representation of FIG. 1 in the section from the left side.
FIG. 5 shows a section B of the representation of FIG. 4 ,
the tumble dryer 1 extends at a height Z, at a depth X and at a width Y.
the tumble dryer 1 has a front 10, a right side 11, a left side 12, a back 13 and a top 14, wherein in the illustration of FIG. 1 and 3 the top 14 is omitted to make the interior of the clothes dryer 1 at least partially visible.
a cylindrical laundry drum 15 is arranged, which can rotate about an axis of rotation A. From the axis of rotation A, the radial direction R is pointing away (cf. Figures 2 and 4 ).
the laundry drum 15 can be filled from the front side 10 of the tumble dryer 1 by a laundry drum door 16 with laundry 5 to be dried, which can then rest on the inner side 15a of the laundry drum 15 (cf. FIG. 6 ).
the tumble dryer 1 has a heat pump unit 3, which is arranged below the laundry drum 15 (see. FIG. 4 ). From the heat pump unit 3, heated process air can be introduced into the laundry drum 15 via a process air inlet 17 in order to dry the laundry located there (cf. Figures 3 and 4 ). The process air can then be returned to the heat pump unit 3 via a process air outlet 18 again (see. FIGS. 1 and 4 ).
the tumble dryer 1 also has a contactless heating unit 2, which is provided as an induction heating unit 2, each with two induction heating elements 20 in the form of induction coils 20.
the laundry drum 15 is correspondingly formed from a ferromagnetic material.
the induction heating unit 2 is arranged in the upper right corner of the inside of the clothes dryer 1, so that the space available there can be used. Further, the induction heating unit 2 is easily and quickly accessible at this position by removing the cover of the top 14 both during assembly and for maintenance or repair. Also, the induction heating unit 2 at this position is generally spaced far enough from the laundry not to overheat it by the laundry drum 15 in that area.
the laundry drum 15 has an insulation 19 radially on the outside, which is designed to be magnetically permeable and thermally insulating. This is intended to be achieved or favored that the heat generated inductively in the laundry drum 15 is not as possible dissipated to the outside but is used to heat the laundry to be dried by means of heat conduction.
the laundry drum 15 can be heated to dry the laundry applied thereto by means of heat conduction. Additionally or alternatively, the laundry can be dried as previously known by the process air of the heat pump unit 3. As a result, on the one hand, the drying time can be shortened. On the other hand, the efficiency of the tumble dryer 1 can be increased by an increased Enthalpiestrom.
the two heat sources i. the induction heating unit 2 and the heat pump unit 3, possible to achieve the optimum result according to various criteria such as the shortest possible drying time, the lowest possible energy consumption, as gentle as possible drying for different types of laundry or moisture levels of laundry.
the tumble dryer 1 also has a liquid dispensing unit 4 in the form of a spray unit 4, which can deliver water 40 as liquid 40 onto the inside 15a of the laundry drum 15 in a sprayed manner (cf. Figures 5 and 6 ).
the spray unit 4 can also be referred to as a water nozzle 4.
the inductively heated laundry drum 15 or its inner side 15a can be used to It is necessary to produce water vapor 41 for moistening the laundry by spraying the inside 15a of the heated laundry drum 15 with water 40 (see also FIG FIG. 6 ).
a humidity sensor 43 is arranged to detect a value of the humidity within the laundry drum 15.
the humidity sensor 43 may also be located in the depth Y adjacent to the temperature sensor 42, or e.g. on a vertical surface, e.g. above the process air inlet 17 of the laundry drum 15, if there is easier and / or more accurate to capture the moisture value.
the laundry drum 15 can move in operation in its circumferential direction U in two directions.
a rotation of the laundry drum 15 takes place about the rotation axis A in a counterclockwise direction in a direction of rotation V.
the induction heating unit 2 is now operated with such a high power that the moving past regions of the laundry drum 15 are heated by induction.
the degree of heating is detected by the temperature sensor 42 arranged downstream in the direction of rotation V, so that on the one hand overheating of the laundry drum 15 can be avoided by timely limiting the power of the induction heating unit 2.
the spraying of the inside 15a of the laundry drum 15 can be started as soon as it is detected by the temperature sensor 42 that the laundry drum 15 has reached a temperature of, for example, at least 90 ° C. Then it will be Water 40 is sprayed from the water nozzle 4 on the inside 15 a of the laundry drum 15, which evaporates to water vapor 41 as vaporized liquid 41.
the spraying is terminated after a full rotation of the laundry drum 15 so that the generated water vapor 41 can be absorbed by the laundry 5. Furthermore, the laundry drum 15 has cooled by the evaporation of the water 40, so that the laundry drum 15 must first be inductively heated to about 90 ° C before again an effective evaporation can be made.
This water vapor 41 can moisten the laundry 5, so that a function "steam smoothing" or “steam finish” can be implemented and provided by means of water vapor 41 in a simple manner.
the spraying could be terminated as soon as a temperature of e.g. 80 ° C below, since below this temperature evaporation can not be made so effective that not at least partially humidification of the laundry 5 can be excluded directly by the water 40.
the spraying could also be stopped once a predetermined amount of water, e.g. between 0.1 liter and 1.2 liters was sprayed onto the inside 15a of the laundry drum 15.
the spraying could be terminated as soon as a predetermined target residual moisture within the laundry drum 15 was reached.
