Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2007007089A1] A pumping system for a condenser tumble dryer (11) for transporting condensate from a sump (12) to a storage reservoir (21), using a pump (3) which is directly driven by rotation of a drum (1) of the tumble dryer (11). The pump (3) is preferably a peristaltic pump and comprises a pump drive shaft (13) for driving the pump (3). The pump shaft (13) extends from and is connected to the drum (1), such that rotation of the drum (1) drives the pump drive shaft (13), and hence the pump (3).
