A laundry washing machine comprising: a wash tub (10); a main hydraulic circuit (20) for supplying a wash fluid to said tub (10); a hydraulic drain circuit (.30) in fluidic communication with said tub (10) and comprising at least one drain pump (P) connected to a power supply unit (U) and adapted to promote an outflow of said wash fluid from said tub (10); an electric protection circuit (40) associated with said drain pump (P) and comprising at least one positive temperature coefficient thermistor (41) electrically connected in series to said drain pump (P) and configured for limiting a current (I) flowing in said drain pump (P) when a parameter indicative of faulty operation of said drain pump (P) exceeds a given threshold.
The present invention relates to an ironing appliance (1), in particular for household use, of the type comprising a supporting structure (10) and an iron (20), said supporting structure (10) comprising a base (11) adapted to provide a bearing surface for said iron (20). The invention is characterized in that said ironing appliance (1) comprises an appendix (30) movably associated with the supporting structure (10), said appendix (30) being associated with said supporting structure (10) in such a way that it can switch: • - from a first operating condition, wherein a supporting surface (31) of said appendix (30) lies substantially on a same plane as the base (11), thus acting as an extension of said base (11) adapted to expand the bearing surface for the iron (20); • - to a second operating condition, wherein said appendix (30) acts as a wall adapted to delimit the base (11), and vice versa. In addition, the present invention relates to an iron where the front portion of the main body of the iron comprises a step (113).
A method for drying laundry by means of a household appliance (1 ) comprising an outer shell (5) that contains delimiting means (34) for delimiting an inner laundry drying compartment (3), the compartment (3), in turn, containing a rotating drum (4) for holding the laundry. The method comprises a stage that determines a condensation of at least part of the moisture present in the compartment (3) on at least a portion of the delimiting means (34), said moisture being determined by the wet laundry placed in the drum (4). The stage that determines the condensation of the moisture, in turn, comprises the stages of: introducing a flow of air inside the shell (5), having it travel through at least one inlet opening (21 ) afforded in a front wall (51 ) of the outer shell (5); conveying the flow of air from the inlet opening (21 ) to at least one outlet opening (22) located in a rear or side wall (52, 53, 54) of the shell (5); the stage of conveying the air flow comprises the stage of the flow of air flowing against said delimiting means (34) so as to determine a cooling thereof; the stage of flowing against the delimiting means (34) provides that the air flow come into contact with the delimiting means (34) externally of the compartment (3), but internally of the shell (5); having said flow of air flow outside the shell (5), having it travel through at least said outlet opening (22).
