A device for the protection of laser optics or to their lifetime increase. The device for the protection of laser optics comprises a housing arranged below a laser optics housing with a connection for the supply of a cutting gas, and on the opposite side to the laser optics outlet nozzle for the cutting gas and a pressure-resistant protective glass on the side of the laser optics and a process-side protective glass, which is arranged between the nozzle and pressure-resistant protective glass available.

Device for protecting laser optics

The invention relates to a dryer which is of modular construction and comprises a process air guide (') into which a first air conducting element () for forming a condensation dryer () or a second air conducting element (&#x2032;) for forming a extraction air dryer (&#x2032;) may be installed. In the process air guide (&#x2032;) is formed an insertion region (&#x2032;) in which the first () or the second air conducting element (&#x2032;) is arranged, wherein the two air conducting elements (&#x2032;) are designed compatibly in respect of their insertion in the insertion region (&#x2032;), at least in certain regions.

Modular dryer

An exhaust air dryer having a housing that encloses an inner space, wherein the following structures are arranged in the inner space: a drying chamber for items to be dried; a supply air duct between a first supply air inlet and the drying chamber to supply air; a heater to heat the supply air in the supply air duct; a fan to guide heated supply air through the drying chamber; and an exhaust air duct arranged between the drying chamber and an exhaust air outlet on the housing to exhaust air. The fan is a dual-flow fan having a first flow path and a second flow path, wherein the first flow path is arranged in the exhaust air duct and the second flow path is arranged in the supply air duct.

Exhaust air dryer having a fan

A household laundry dryer has at least one filter container which includes a chamber with an inlet for condensate water to be cleaned. The chamber has a first outlet, a second outlet and a filter element which is arranged between the inlet and the first outlet and which divides the chamber into an inlet-side first chamber part and a second chamber part. The filter container can be configured in such a way that the inlet is arranged below the filter element and the filter element is arranged below the first outlet, and the second outlet opens into the first chamber part. Particles deposited on the filter element by water being pushed through the inlet into the chamber are detachable from the filter element by water flowing back into the chamber, when no water is being pushed through the inlet, and removable through the second outlet.

Household laundry dryer condensate filtering apparatus and method

A program-controlled laundry drier equipped with a rotary drum in which the material to be dried is inserted and moved during the drying process. The dryer comprising a heater for heating the drying air and a blower which guides the drying air stream into the interior of the drum. The axis of a current generator is mechanically coupled to the rotary drum and the output voltage of the current generator is applied to the excitation winding of a relay whose switching contacts switch the heating current circuit for the drying air.

Laundry drier

The invention relates to a dryer with a housing and a drying chamber for objects to be dried, a process air duct, in which are located a heater for warming the process air and a first fan, a motor for driving the drying chamber, a heat exchanger and a cold air section in the process air duct or in a cooling air duct, with a motor cooling duct which branches off from the cold air section being able to apply cold air to the motor.

Dryer with cooled motor

A dryer has a drying chamber to receive damp items and a process air duct to feed process air into and extract process air out of the drying chamber. The process air duct has a heat source and a heat sink to heat the process air before the process air enters the drying chamber and to cool the process air after the process air leaves the drying chamber, respectively. A cleaning device has an accumulator for a liquid; a rinsing line connected to the accumulator; a control organ in the rinsing line; a distributor connected to the rinsing line to distribute the liquid conveyed through the rinsing line on a lint filter and to receive the lint caught by the lint filter; and a drain line to drain the liquid with the received lint away from the lint filter and towards the accumulator.

Dryer having a lint filter and a cleaning device

A domestic appliance for drying laundry having a component around which process air flows. The component has a substrate made of metal and the substrate has a surface facing the process air. The surface carries a coating that prevents adhesion of foreign particles and the coating has a surface energy of no more than 40 mN/m. The surface has a section that is directly impinged by the process air and that is essentially completely covered by the coating. The component has edges in the section covered by the coating and each of the edges is essentially completely covered by the coating.

A device for determining the conductance of laundry in a drier. The device comprises at least two electrodes and means for dissipating heat from at least one part of at least one of said electrodes. The invention further relates to a drier comprising at least one area for receiving laundry and at least two electrodes for measuring the conductance of the laundry, at least one of the electrodes at least partly bordering said receiving area. Means for cooling at least one part of at least one of the electrodes are also provided inside the drier. Also disclosed is a method for preventing the formation of layers on electrodes used for measuring conductance in a drier.

Device for determining the conductance of laundry, dryers and method for preventing deposits on electrodes

A domestic appliance for treating laundered articles including a container for receiving laundered articles, which can be introduced into the container via a loading opening that can be closed by a door, and a door contact switch that is actuated as a function of a door position in order to interrupt a treatment process of the laundered articles, wherein the door contact switch is arranged on a substrate, which supports electronic control devices of the domestic appliance.

Domestic appliance for treating laundered articles, in particular tumble dryer

The invention relates to a washing household device, in particular to a clothes dryer, that includes an air-supply device which is arranged on a rear side area thereof and is provided with a closed self-contained cross-section flow channel.

Washing household device, in particular a clothes dryer

A front-loading clothes dryer, a horizontally pivotable door is secured in its closed position against accidentally opening by a latching closure. Moreover, the door is connected to a safety switch which cuts off or re-establishes power supply for the clothes dryer depending on whether the door is in the open or in the closed position. The object of the invention is to ensure that the switching function remains matched over the long term to the closure state of the door, as when the clothes dryer was manufactured. For that purpose, the functional elements for the latching closure and safety switch are arranged in direct proximity to each other but functionally separated into a component arranged on the door and a component arranged on the casing.

Also disclosed is a method for preventing the formation of layers on electrodes () used for measuring conductance in a drier.

A method for monitoring the proper functioning of a temperature-dependent resistor, particularly a NTC resistor, for measuring the temperature of a medium heated by a heat source. Said medium is preferably the air flow in a clothes dryer for drying clothes. In order to increase the safety of a device, in particular a clothes dryer, where the temperature-dependent resistor is used in combination with a heat source, it is checked, once the heat source is switched on, whether the temperature measured by the resistor after a first predetermined period of time following the switching on of the heat source falls below a predetermined temperature threshold value. If this is the case, monitoring of a resistor-temperature curve characteristic of the temperature-dependent resistor is carried out.
