Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0452678A2] A control assembly for a combined laundry washing and drying machine in which a washing liquid heated by a respective electric heater element (10) is recirculated by means of a pump (9) from the lower part to the upper part of a laundering tub (5), and the laundry drying operation is carried out by means of an air flow produced by a blower (14) and heated by an associated electric heater element (15). The control assembly comprises a pressure switch (16) controlling the washing liquid charging level in the tub (5) and a safety pressure switch (17), operable to individually energize one or the other of the electric heater elements (10, 15) when the washing liquid is at its maximum level, or when said tub (5) is empty, respectively, in the course of respective laundry washing and drying cycles, respectively. The thus composed control assembly is of simple construction and reliable in operation. <IMAGE>
