The invention concerns a clothes dryer with a condensation device with a condensate collector that controls a switching device which monitors the presence of the condensate collector and its full level and emits a control signal to the control circuit of the clothes dryer. The operation reliability is improved with a simple switching device where a two-arm, spring-loaded operating lever (30) is pivoted in a base part (10) that receives the condensate collector (20), whereby the feeler arm (31) of the operating lever (30) rests under pretension against a sidewall (21) of the condensate collector (20) that can be vertically adjusted to a degree, and the switching arm (32) is connected to an actuator (41) of an electrical switch (40), whereby the inserted condensate collector (20) holds the operating lever (30) in an actuated position for the switch (40) by its sidewall until the condensate reaches a set level, and when the set level is exceeded, the condensate collector sinks (20) until the feeler arm (31) of the lock-and-release lever (30) swings over an abrupt shoulder in the sidewall (21) of the condensate collector (20) and assumes a locked position in which the switch (40) is switched off, and the clothes dryer cannot be started. <IMAGE> |
