Wäschetrocknungsgeräte dienen der Trocknung von Wäschestücken, also einer Reduzierung einer zumeist nach einem vorherigen Waschvorgang in den Wäschestücken noch vorhandenen Restfeuchtigkeit. Um hierbei ein jeweiliges Trocknungsprogramm des Wäschetrocknungsgeräts effektiv gestalten zu können, wird im Rahmen des jeweiligen Trocknungsprogramms eine Restfeuchtigkeit der Wäschestücke in bestimmten Zeitabständen erfasst, um ermitteln zu können, ob ein Trocknen der Wäschestücke fortzusetzen ist oder aber bereits eine ausreichende Trocknung erzielt wurde, so dass das Trocknungsprogramm entsprechend beendet werden kann. Hierbei kommen unterschiedliche Methoden zur Erfassung der Restfeuchtigkeit der Wäschestücke zum Einsatz, wobei eine gängige Variante dabei die Ermittlung eines Leitwerts der Wäschestücke ist, welcher proportional zu dem Feuchtigkeitsgehalt der Wäsche ist.Laundry drying devices are used to dry items of laundry, ie a reduction of residual moisture remaining in the laundry items after a previous washing process. In order to be able to effectively design a respective drying program of the laundry drying apparatus, a residual moisture of the laundry items is detected at certain time intervals in the context of the respective drying program in order to determine whether a drying of the laundry is to continue or already sufficient drying has been achieved, so that the drying program can be stopped accordingly. Here, different methods for detecting the residual moisture of the laundry items are used, wherein a common variant is the determination of a conductance of the laundry, which is proportional to the moisture content of the laundry.

Ausgehend vom vorstehend beschriebenen Stand der Technik ist es nun die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, ein Wäschetrocknungsgerät zu schaffen, bei welchem eine zuverlässige Feuchtesensierung möglich ist, gleichzeitig aber ein optimaler Betrieb realisiert werden kann.Starting from the above-described prior art, it is now the object of the present invention to provide a laundry drying apparatus, in which a reliable humidity measurement is possible, but at the same time an optimal operation can be realized.
Aus vorrichtungstechnischer Sicht wird diese Aufgabe ausgehend vom Oberbegriff des unabhängigen Patentanspruchs in Verbindung mit dessen kennzeichnenden Merkmalen gelöst. Ein Flusensieb für ein erfindungsgemäßes Wäschetrocknungsgerät geht zudem aus den entsprechenden unabhängigen Patentansprüchen hervor. Aus verfahrenstechnischer Sicht erfolgt eine Lösung der Aufgabe ausgehend vom Oberbegriff des entsprechenden unabhängigen Patentanspruchs in Verbindung mit dessen kennzeichnenden Merkmalen.From a device technical point of view, this object is achieved on the basis of the preamble of the independent claim in conjunction with its characterizing features. A lint filter for an inventive laundry drying device is also apparent from the corresponding independent claims. From a procedural point of view, a solution of the problem is based on the preamble of the corresponding independent claim in conjunction with its characterizing features.
Gemäß der Erfindung umfasst ein Wäschetrocknungsgerät eine drehbar gelagerte Trommel, in deren Innenraum Wäschestücke eingebracht werden können und durch die im Rahmen eines Trocknungsprogramms der Wäschestücke Prozessluft hindurchführbar und anschließend über ein Flusensieb leitbar ist. Dabei ist zudem eine Messeinrichtung zur Leitwertmessung der Wäschestücke vorgesehen, welche Elektroden umfasst, die mit den Wäschestücken im Rahmen des Trocknungsprogramms zur Leitwertmessung jeweils in Kontakt gebracht werden können. Im Rahmen eines Betriebs des Wäschetrocknungsgeräts wird dabei während eines Trocknungsprogramms eine Leitwertmessung der Wäschestücke zur Ermittlung einer jeweiligen Restfeuchtigkeit angestoßen, indem zwischen den beiden Spulen der Messeinrichtung eine Spannung anzulegen ist.According to the invention, a laundry drying device comprises a rotatably mounted drum, in the interior of which laundry items can be introduced and through which process air can be conveyed as part of a drying program of the laundry items and subsequently be conducted via a lint filter. In addition, a measuring device is provided for measuring the conductivity of the items of laundry, which comprises electrodes which can be brought into contact with the items of laundry as part of the drying program for measuring the conductivity value. In the context of an operation of the laundry drying apparatus, a conductivity measurement of the items of laundry for determining a respective residual moisture is triggered during a drying program by applying a voltage between the two coils of the measuring device.
Im Sinne der Erfindung handelt es sich bei dem Wäschetrocknungsgerät bevorzugt um einen Wäschetrockner, welcher im Speziellen dann als Ablufttrockner, Kondensationstrockner oder auch als Wärmepumpentrockner gestaltet sein kann. Alternativ dazu kann es sich bei dem Wäschetrocknungsgerät unter Umständen aber auch um einen Waschtrockner handeln, bei welchem sowohl ein Waschen eingebrachter Wäschestücke als auch deren anschließendes Trocknen darstellbar ist.For the purposes of the invention, the laundry drying apparatus is preferably a tumble dryer, which can then be designed in particular as an exhaust air dryer, condensation dryer or as a heat pump dryer. Alternatively, the laundry drying apparatus may under certain circumstances also be a washer-dryer, in which both a washing of introduced laundry items and their subsequent drying can be displayed.
Eine Leitwertmessung der Wäschestücke erfolgt im Sinne der Erfindung dadurch, dass zwischen den beiden Elektroden der Messeinrichtung über einen Widerstand eine Spannung angelegt wird, wobei in der Folge durch Messung an einem Spannungsteiler, Vorwiderstand zum Wäschewiderstand, der Leitwert bestimmt wird, welcher proportional zu dem Restfeuchtegehalt der Wäschestücke ist.A Leitwertmessung the garments takes place in the context of the invention in that between the two electrodes of the measuring device via a resistor voltage is applied, which is subsequently determined by measurement on a voltage divider, series resistor to the laundry resistance, the conductance, which is proportional to the residual moisture content the laundry is.
Die Erfindung umfasst die technische Lehre, dass das Flusensieb, über welches die aus der Trommel herausgeführte Prozessluft geleitet wird, eine erste Elektrode der Messeinrichtung trägt. Zu diesem Zweck umfasst das Flusensieb insbesondere ein Siebgehäuse, an welchem die Elektrode befestigt ist. Bevorzugt weist dieses Siebgehäuse dabei einen Siebträger auf, der mit einem feinmaschigen Siebmaterial bespannt ist und auf welchem ein Flusensiebkopf mit Perforierungen aufgesetzt ist, wobei die Prozessluft über diese Perforierungen aus dem Innenraum der Trommel in das Innere des Flusensiebs und damit des Siebgehäuses gelangen und an dem Siebträger über das feinmaschige Material wieder entweichen kann. Dabei werden entsprechende, durch die Prozessluft mitgenommene Flusen an dem Siebmaterial abgeschieden.The invention comprises the technical teaching that the lint filter, via which the process air led out of the drum is passed, carries a first electrode of the measuring device. For this purpose, the lint filter in particular comprises a screen housing to which the electrode is attached. In this case, this screen housing preferably has a portafilter which is covered with a fine-meshed screen material and on which a lint filter head is mounted with perforations, the process air pass through these perforations from the interior of the drum into the interior of the lint filter and thus of the screen housing and on the Portafilter can escape through the fine-meshed material again. In this case, corresponding, entrained by the process air lint are deposited on the screen material.
Eine derartige Ausgestaltung eines Wäschetrocknungsgerätes hat dabei zum einen den Vorteil, dass eine bessere Kontaktierung zwischen den Wäschestücken und den Elektroden der Messeinrichtung für die Leitwertmessung realisiert wird, da die Wäschestücke durch die die Trommel durchströmende Prozessluft in Richtung des Flusensiebs gedrückt werden und dabei mit der dort befindlichen Elektrode in Kontakt gelangen. Da zur Leitwertmessung ein Kontakt zumindest eines Wäschestücks mit beiden Elektroden notwendig ist, wird hierdurch die Wahrscheinlichkeit eines derartigen Kontakts durch die entsprechende Anordnung der Messeinrichtung begünstigt. Ferner muss nur eine zweite Elektrode der Messeinrichtung anderweitig angeordnet werden, was insbesondere im Bereich eines Lagerschildes des Wäschetrocknungsgeräts mehr Platz für eine optimierte Luftführung bietet.Such an embodiment of a laundry drying apparatus has the advantage that a better contacting between the laundry items and the electrodes of the measuring device for Leitwertmessung is realized because the laundry items are pressed by the process air flowing through the drum in the direction of the lint filter and thereby with the there get in contact electrode. Since contact measurement of at least one item of laundry with both electrodes is necessary for conductance measurement, the probability of such a contact is thereby determined by the appropriate arrangement of the measuring device favors. Furthermore, only a second electrode of the measuring device has to be arranged elsewhere, which offers more space for optimized air guidance, in particular in the area of a bearing plate of the laundry drying device.
Zum anderen kann durch die Platzierung einer der Elektroden der Messeinrichtung am Flusensieb auf einfache Art und Weise eine Abfrage realisiert werden, ob das Flusensieb ordnungsgemäß eingesetzt ist. Zu diesem Zweck wird im Rahmen eines erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens zum Betreiben eines Wäschetrocknungsgeräts im Falle des Fehlens der seitens des Flusensiebs vorgesehenen Spule erfasst, dass eine Leitwertmessung der eingebrachten Wäschestücke nicht durchführbar ist, wobei in der Folge das jeweils laufende Trocknungsprogramm des Wäschetrocknungsgeräts abgebrochen wird. Denn bei fehlendem Flusensieb ist dementsprechend auch eine der beiden Spulen der Leitwertmessung nicht vorhanden, so dass die Leitwertmessung und damit die Feuchtesensierung während des jeweiligen Trocknungsprogramms nicht durchgeführt werden kann. Da ein fehlendes Flusensieb zu einer starken Verschmutzung der Luftwege des Wäschetrocknungsgeräts durch Flusen führt und diese Luftwege, insbesondere bei Wärmepumpentrocknern, nur schwierig zu reinigen sind, kann eine schnelle Erfassung eines Fehlens des Flusensiebs die Lebensdauer des Wäschetrocknungsgeräts und die Qualität eines Trocknungsprozesses verbessern.On the other hand, a query can be realized by placing one of the electrodes of the measuring device on the lint filter in a simple manner, whether the lint filter is inserted properly. For this purpose, in the context of a method according to the invention for operating a laundry drying device, in the event of the absence of the coil provided by the lint filter, it is detected that conductance measurement of the laundry items introduced can not be carried out, as a result of which the current drying program of the laundry drying device is aborted. Because if there is no lint filter, one of the two coils of the conductivity measurement is accordingly also not present, so that the conductance measurement and thus the moisture measurement can not be carried out during the respective drying program. Since a lack of lint filter leads to a heavy soiling of the airways of the laundry dryer by fluff and these airways, especially in heat pump dryers are difficult to clean, a quick detection of a lint filter failure can improve the life of the laundry dryer and the quality of a drying process.
Im Unterschied hierzu ist im Falle der
Entsprechend einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist eine zweite Elektrode der Messeinrichtung an einem Gehäuseteil befestigt. In Weiterbildung dieser Ausführungsform ist dieser Gehäuseteil ein Lagerschild, in welchem das Flusensieb in einem eingesetzten Zustand in einen Schacht eingeschoben ist, über welchen die Prozessluft aus der Trommel abgeführt werden kann. Die Platzierung der zweiten Elektrode seitens eines Gehäuseteils und hierbei insbesondere seitens eines vorderen Lagerschildes hat den Vorteil, dass die zweite Elektrode somit räumlich sehr dicht bei der ersten, am Flusensieb sitzenden Elektrode platziert ist, so dass bei einem in diesem Bereich zum Liegen kommenden Wäschestück sowohl ein Kontakt zu der einen als auch zu der anderen Elektrode stattfindet. Abgesehen davon kann die zweite Elektrode prinzipiell aber auch seitens der Trommel, entweder am Trommelkörper oder an einem Mitnehmer, oder aber auch an einem anderweitigen Gehäuseteil vorgesehen sein. Hierbei ist nur zu gewährleisten, dass der räumliche Abstand zu der ersten Elektrode der Messeinrichtung nicht zu groß wird, so dass ein mit der ersten Elektrode in Kontakt gelangendes Wäschestück auch mit der zweiten Elektrode gleichzeitig in Kontakt tritt und in der Folge eine Leitwertmessung möglich ist.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, a second electrode of the measuring device is attached to a housing part. In a further development of this embodiment, this housing part is a bearing plate, in which the lint filter is inserted in an inserted state into a shaft, via which the process air can be removed from the drum. The placement of the second electrode on the part of a housing part, and in particular on the part of a front bearing plate has the advantage that the second electrode is thus placed spatially very close to the first, sitting on the lint filter electrode, so that at a coming to this area lying down laundry both a contact to the one as well as to the other electrode. Apart from that, the second electrode may, in principle, however, also be provided on the part of the drum, either on the drum body or on a driver, or else on another housing part. In this case, it is only necessary to ensure that the spatial distance to the first electrode of the measuring device does not become too great, so that a piece of laundry which comes into contact with the first electrode also comes into contact with the second electrode at the same time and a conductance measurement is possible as a result.
Gemäß einer weiteren, vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist die erste Elektrode an einem Kopf des Flusensiebs befestigt. Bevorzugt ist die Elektrode dabei als Blechstreifen ausgeführt, welcher an dem Kopf des Siebgehäuses des Flusensiebs angebracht ist. Hierdurch kann die erste Elektrode problemlos im Bereich eines Innenraumes der Trommel vorgesehen werden. Im Speziellen kann die Elektrode dabei am Flusensieb umspritzt, eingeklemmt oder mit einem anderweitigen Verfahren befestigt sein.According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the first electrode is attached to a head of the lint filter. Preferably, the electrode is designed as a sheet metal strip, which is attached to the head of the screen housing of the lint filter. As a result, the first electrode can be easily provided in the region of an inner space of the drum. In particular, the electrode can be encapsulated on the lint filter, clamped or secured by another method.
Es ist eine weitere Ausführungsform der Erfindung, dass das Flusensieb mit einem außenliegenden, elektrischen Kontakt versehen ist, welcher mit der ersten Elektrode elektrisch in Verbindung steht und in einem eingesetzten Zustand des Flusensiebs an einem gehäuseseitigen, elektrischen Kontakt anliegt, so dass eine elektrische Versorgung der am Flusensieb befestigten Elektrode gehäuseseitig darstellbar ist. Das Siebgehäuse des Flusensiebs ist also mit einem außenliegenden elektrischen Kontakt versehen, welcher mit der ersten Elektrode elektrisch in Verbindung steht. Hierdurch kann auf einfache Art und Weise gehäuseseitig eine Spannung an die erste Elektrode zur Leitwertmessung angelegt werden. Ferner kann hierdurch auch die Abfrage, ob das Flusensieb ordnungsgemäß eingesetzt ist, auf zuverlässige Art und Weise realisiert werden, da eine Leitwertmessung dann nicht möglich ist, wenn kein Kontakt des gehäuseseitigen Kontaktes mit dem flusensiebseitigen Kontakt hergestellt ist. Hierdurch kann beispielsweise auch erfasst werden, wenn das Einsetzen des Flusensiebs zwar nicht vergessen, dabei aber nicht ordnungsgemäß vollzogen wurde. Besonders bevorzugt ist der flusensiebseitige Kontakt dabei als breiter Metallkontakt ausgeführt, während der gehäuseseitige Kontakt als federnde Metallklammer realisiert ist, so dass diese gehäuseseitige Klammer gegen den flusensiebseitigen Kontakt drückt und die elektrische Verbindung herstellt.It is a further embodiment of the invention that the lint filter is provided with an external, electrical contact, which is electrically connected to the first electrode and in an inserted state of the lint filter on a housing-side, electrical contact is applied, so that an electrical supply of the attached to the lint filter electrode is the housing side represented. The screen housing of the lint filter is therefore provided with an external electrical contact, which is electrically connected to the first electrode. As a result, a voltage can be applied to the first electrode for conductance measurement in a simple manner on the housing side. Furthermore, this can also be the query whether the lint filter is inserted properly, can be realized in a reliable manner, as a conductance measurement is not possible if no contact of the housing-side contact with the flusensiebseitigen contact is made. In this way, for example, be detected if the onset of the lint filter while not forgotten, but it was not done properly. Particularly preferably, the fluff filter side contact is designed as a wide metal contact, while the housing-side contact is realized as a resilient metal clip, so that this housing-side clamp presses against the flusensiebseitigen contact and establishes the electrical connection.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung wird im Falle des Abbruchs des Trocknungsprogramms bei fehlendem Flusensieb ein Fehlerhinweis ausgegeben. In der Folge wird die jeweilige Bedienperson des Wäschetrocknungsgeräts darüber informiert, dass das Flusensieb fehlt und ein Trocknungsprogramm nicht fortgesetzt werden kann. Dieser Fehlerhinweis kann dabei insbesondere als Warnsignal in Form einer leuchtenden Kontrolllampe, einem akustischen Signal und/oder einem Hinweis an einem Bedienelement vorliegen.In a further development of the invention, in the case of the termination of the drying program, if there is no lint filter, an error message is output. As a result, the respective operator of the clothes dryer is informed that the lint filter is missing and a drying program can not be continued. This error indication can be present in particular as a warning signal in the form of a luminous control lamp, an acoustic signal and / or a reference to a control element.

Aus
In dem Maschinengehäuse 2 ist eine Trommel 6 drehbar gelagert, welche auf einer der Frontseite 3 zugewandten Seite mit einer Beschickungsöffnung 7 ausgestattet ist, über welche Wäschestücke von der Frontseite 3 her in einen Innenraum 8 der Trommel 6 eingebracht werden können. Zur drehbaren Lagerung im Maschinengehäuse 2 ist die Trommel 6 einerseits im rückwärtigen Bereich an einer Antriebswelle 9, sowie frontseitig über ein Lagerschild 10 gelagert, welches Teil des Maschinengehäuses 2 ist. Ferner ist eine Rückwand der Trommel 6 mit einer Perforation versehen, über welche erwärmte Prozessluft dem Innenraum 8 der Trommel 6 zugeführt und die hierin befindliche Wäsche umströmen kann. Dabei nimmt diese Prozessluft Feuchtigkeit der Wäschestücke auf und strömt weiter in Richtung der Beschickungsöffnung 7 der Trommel 6, wobei die mit Feuchtigkeit beladene Prozessluft dann im Bereich des Lagerschildes 10 wieder abgeführt wird.In the machine housing 2, a drum 6 is rotatably mounted, which is equipped on one of the

Abgesehen von einer Leitwertmessung wird über die Messeinrichtung 12 zudem auch eine Abfrage realisiert, ob das Flusensieb 11 ordnungsgemäß eingesetzt ist. So wird während eines Betriebs des Wäschetrockners 1 in einem Trocknungsprogramm zu Anfang eine Feuchtesensierung über die Messeinrichtung 12 vorgenommen. Ist das Flusensieb 11 dabei nicht in den Schacht 18 eingesetzt bzw. so eingesetzt, dass die Kontakte 21 und 22 nicht berühren, so kann aufgrund der entweder nicht an Ort und Stelle befindlichen ersten Elektrode 13 oder aufgrund deren fehlender Stromversorgung keine Leitwertmessung erfolgen und damit auch nicht auf die Restfeuchtigkeit der Wäschestücke geschlossen werden. In diesem Fall wird das jeweilige Trocknungsprogramm beendet und der Bedienperson ein Fehlersignal ausgegeben, beispielsweise in Form einer leuchtenden Warnlampe, eines akustischen Signals und/oder einer entsprechenden Anzeige an einem Bedienelement. Auf diese Art und Weise wird verhindert, dass das Trocknungsprogramm ohne Flusensieb 11 vollzogen wird, was ansonsten einen entsprechend hohen Eintrag von Flusen in den Bereich der Luftwege des Wäschetrockners 1 zur Folge hätte.Apart from a conductivity measurement is also realized via the measuring
Mittels der beschriebenen Ausgestaltung eines Wäschetrocknungsgeräts kann zum einen die Erfassung einer Restfeuchtigkeit eingebrachter Wäschestücke verbessert und zudem eine Flusensiebabfrage auf einfache Art und Weise realisiert werden.By means of the described embodiment of a laundry drying apparatus, on the one hand, the detection of residual moisture of inserted laundry items can be improved and, in addition, a lint filter can be realized in a simple manner.
