Problems solved by technology

[0003] Although a perfectly feasible auxiliary device has been proposed for removing the fluff deposited directly on the heat exchanger, the problem is that the fluff is deposited elsewhere between the drum and the heat exchanger in the passage for the process air between

Embodiment Construction

[0013] Figure 1 shows a heat exchange device for a clothes dryer, which comprises a heat exchanger 1, which is formed as a conventional cross-flow plate heat exchanger and which must be exchanged in the horizontal direction 3 by Process air flow through the device. A pan 2 is arranged in front of the heat exchanger 1, which pan acts as a diverter for the process air flow - coming from the treatment chamber of the laundry dryer (see Figure 4) - in a vertically descending direction 4 Flow and turn to horizontal direction3. This pan 2 is mounted on the heat exchanger 1 with a grate 5 and serves to capture fluff 6, which is represented here as more or less loose and loose lumps and which, despite prior filtering (see FIG. 4 ), still Carried by the process air stream. The disk 2 forms the deepest point of a channel through which the process air flow passes from the drum to the heat exchanger 1 and thus can largely collect any entrained fluff 6 . Also important is the barrier 5 c...

Abstract

A tumble dryer is provided having a heat exchanger through which a process-air stream flows in a first direction and a first duct which is arranged in fluid communication with the heat exchanger through which a process-air stream flows in a second direction and in which a lint filter is disposed. A tray having its own lint filter is removably attached to the heat exchanger and arranged between the duct and the heat exchanger.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a clothes dryer, comprising a heat exchanger through which a process air flow can flow in a horizontal direction and an air discharge channel arranged in front of the heat exchanger and through which a process air flow can flow in a vertically descending direction, A fluff filter is arranged in the air outlet channel. Background technique [0002] Such a laundry dryer is known from EP 0 477 554 B1, the content of which is fully included in the present disclosure. In such clothes dryers, the heat exchanger, through which the process air stream flows, operates at a relatively high speed despite the lint filter through which the majority of the lint accumulated during the drying process is captured. The extent of this is influenced by the fluff which is carried out by the process air flow from the drum with the laundry to be dried and which is not caught by the fluff filter due to its small size. This fluff is deposited around t...
