Washer-dryer machine with system removing creases and fold lines, includes rotary drum connected to swirling steam- and hot air generators

摘要

The rotary drum (20) of the machine holds the object for drying. A steam supply unit is connected to a steam generator (200) on one side, and to the drum on its other side. A swirler is built-into the steam supply unit at a set position, to swirl the steam flowing through it. It is adjacent to the end of a nozzle of the steam supply unit and includes vanes swirling the flow. The vanes extend from an internal wall of the steam supply unit to its center. It is constructed integrally with the steam supply unit. The drum is heated during use, steam is introduced from the steam generator and hot air (40, 42, 44, 90) is supplied into the drum. The drum is cooled. When supply of steam is completed, water remaining in the steam generator is removed to its exterior. During this stage, the water is pumped out. During heating of the drum and/or during steam supply, the drum is rotated. Rotation is intermittent. An independent claim IS INCLUDED FOR the corresponding method of controlling a washer dryer.
