Armored resistor with an end sealing element in which the electric pin () partially projecting from an end (') of the armor () and connected to said end by said sealing element () is provided with a part () with high roughness, i.e. knurling and/or toothing (&#x2032;&#x2033;) and/or a circular groove (&#x2032;), moreover said end (&#x2032;) of the armor is crimped in order to compress said sealing element () against said zone with high roughness.

Armoured resistor with an end sealing element

Steam generator () is provided with an electric heating element () for heating water to be evaporated, consisting of an electric heating resistor () inserted in a profiled base () of a metal supporting element (), fixed in a hole obtained in one of the vertical walls () of the container () for heating water.

Steam generator

A home laundry machine () having an outer casing () and, inside said casing (), a laundry container () for housing the laundry to be dried, and a steam generator () for feeding a given amount of steam into the laundry container (), and which in turn has a tubular vaporizer () containing a given amount of water; a heater () for boiling and converting the water in said tubular vaporizer () into steam; and a steam exhaust pipe () for feeding the steam produced in the tubular vaporizer () into the laundry container (), and which has at least one tubular portion () contacting the heater (), so that the steam flowing along the tubular portion () receives a certain amount of heat from said heater ().

Laundry treatment machine

A resistive heating element, in particular for clothes dryers, comprising a substantially rectangular plate of heating resistant dielectric material supported at its ends by two shoulders also of heat-resistant dielectric material and inserted through a resistive wire spiral connected at its ends to conductor cables, characterised in that one end of the plate is freely slidable along a slot provided in the corresponding shoulder.
