DEVICE FOR UTILIZING HEAT FROM WASTEWATER IN A LAUNDRY TREATMENT MACHINE

摘要

The invention relates to a device (18) for utilizing the heat from wastewater in a laundry treatment machine, comprising a heat reservoir (19) that is connected to a wastewater pipe (21). Heated wastewater can be fed to the heat reservoir (19) via the wastewater pipe (21), and the residual heat from the wastewater can be stored in the heat reservoir (19). In order to be able to utilize the residual heat for heating process air, the heat reservoir (19) is heat-conductively connected to a process air pipe (7) in order for stored residual heat to be conducted into process air.
