阅读说明：本技术 洗干一体机 (Washing and drying integrated machine ) 是由 辻贵裕 八田聪 于 2020-04-22 设计创作，主要内容包括：一种洗干一体机,其能实现对烘干过滤器的维护性的提高。洗干一体机包括：可蓄水的外筒、与外筒连接的循环路、将外筒内的空气从取出口取出至循环路内并从返回口返回至外筒内的电动风扇以及加热循环路内的空气的加热部。风扇和加热部设置于循环路内。洗干一体机包括在循环路内配置于比风扇和加热部靠取出口侧的烘干过滤器、供水部以及检测烘干过滤器中的异物的附着量的电流传感器。烘干过滤器捕获在循环路内从取出口前往返回口的空气中的异物。当异物的附着量超过规定量时,执行通过供水部向烘干过滤器供水的清扫过程以从烘干过滤器中清除异物。(A washing and drying integrated machine can improve the maintainability of a drying filter. The washing and drying integrated machine comprises: the air conditioner includes an outer cylinder capable of storing water, a circulation passage connected to the outer cylinder, an electric fan for taking out air in the outer cylinder from an outlet into the circulation passage and returning the air to the outer cylinder from a return port, and a heating unit for heating the air in the circulation passage. The fan and the heating unit are disposed in the circulation path. The washing and drying integrated machine includes a drying filter disposed on the outlet side of the fan and the heating part in the circulation path, a water supply part, and a current sensor for detecting the amount of foreign matter adhering to the drying filter. The drying filter captures foreign matters in the air flowing from the take-out port to the return port in the circulation path. When the adhering amount of the foreign matters exceeds a prescribed amount, a cleaning process of supplying water to the drying filter through the water supply part is performed to remove the foreign matters from the drying filter.)

A washing and drying integrated machine is characterized by comprising:

an outer cylinder capable of storing water;

a washing tub accommodated in the outer tub and accommodating laundry;

a circulation path having a take-out port and a return port connected to the outer cylinder;

a fan that is an electric fan provided in the circulation passage and circulates air in the outer tube by taking air in the outer tube out of the outlet into the circulation passage and returning the air to the outer tube through the return port;

a heating unit provided in the circulation path and heating air in the circulation path;

a drying filter disposed in the circulation path on the outlet side of the fan and the heating unit, the drying filter capturing foreign matters in the air heading from the outlet to the return port in the circulation path;

a water supply part supplying water to the drying filter;

an adhesion amount detection unit that detects an adhesion amount of foreign matter in the drying filter; and

a control part for controlling the fan, the heating part and the water supply part and executing a drying process for operating the fan and the heating part to dry the washings in the washing drum,

when the attachment amount of the foreign matter detected by the attachment amount detection unit exceeds a predetermined amount, the control part performs a cleaning process of supplying water to the drying filter through the water supply part to remove the foreign matter from the drying filter.

The washing and drying integrated machine according to claim 1,

the adhering amount detecting unit includes a detecting portion that detects a current value of the fan,

when the current value of the fan detected by the detection unit is lower than a predetermined value, the control unit determines that the amount of foreign matter adhering exceeds a predetermined amount, and executes the cleaning process.

The washing and drying integrated machine according to claim 1 or 2,

the control part executes a water removal process for operating the fan to remove water from the drying filter after the cleaning process.

The washing and drying integrated machine according to claim 3,

in the circulation path, the heating unit is disposed closer to the return port than the fan, and the rotation speed of the fan during the water removal process is lower than the rotation speed of the fan during the drying process.
