A laundry dryer including: a drum, a motor to rotate the drum, a casing supporting the drum and including a rear wall and a front wall, a basement having first, second, third and fourth quarters with the first and third quarters on one side of a plane perpendicular to the basement plane and parallel to the drum axis, and the second and fourth quarters on an opposite side of the plane, a process air conduit in fluid communication with the drum and including a basement process air conduit located in the basement, and a heat pump circuit including a compressor, and first and second heat exchangers. The first and second heat exchangers are in the basement process air conduit mainly within third and fourth quarters, and the motor and compressor are mainly in, respectively, in the first and second quarters.

Laundry dryer

A laundry dryer having a drum, a casing supporting the drum and including a basement defining a basement plane, a basement process air conduit located in the basement and extending within the basement for a given length and having a basement air conduit width, and a heat pump having a first heat exchanger where refrigerant is cooled off and the process air is heated up, and a second heat exchanger where refrigerant is heated up and the process air is cooled off. The first heat and second heat exchangers are in the basement process air conduit to perform heat exchange between said refrigerant flowing in said heat pump circuit and said process air. The width of the basement air conduit along a first portion of its extension in the basement is wider than 50% of the width of the basement.

A laundry dryer having a cabinet with a plinth, a first door on the plinth, a drum rotatable in the cabinet, a process air flow duct exiting the drum, and a filter assembly behind the first door in the a duct section inside the plinth. The filter assembly includes a frame, a filter supported by the frame, and a cleaning device. The cleaning device has a slidable wiper and a fluff collector. The cleaning device is movable within the frame to cause the wiper to wipe the filter, and to collect material wiped from the filter in the fluff collector.

Laundry dryer comprising a filter assembly and a method to clean a filter assembly

A laundry dryer having a cabinet, a rotatable drum, a duct defining a flow passage for process air, and a filter assembly positioned in the duct. The filter assembly includes a frame, a filter surface, and a cleaning device. The cleaning device includes wiper seat, a wiper, and a handle portion connected to the wiper portion. The cleaning device is pivotally attached to the frame to rotate around an axis, to be movable from a first resting position in which the handle is substantially completely housed in the wiper seat, to a plurality of wiping positions in which the wiper portion wipes the first filtering surface. In at least in one of the wiping positions, the handle portion protrudes from the wiper seat, and the handle portion is operable to perform the transition from the first resting position to any of the wiping positions.
