LAUNDRY WASHER/DRYER

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To eliminate the malfunction of extended time for drying caused by slower temperature rise than an electric heater in a laundry washer/dryer for heating air for drying fed by a heat-pump device into a rotary tub. SOLUTION: A control means 45 starts to feed electricity from a compressor 41 to a motor after the rotation of the rotary tub 5 is stabilized in a spin-drying process before the drying process, so that the pre-heating operation of the heat-pump device can be efficiently performed and the time for drying can be reduced while saving the energy consumption.
