(57) In a laundry dryer having a rotatable drum, with circulation of the drying air in
a closed circuit and circulation of the condensing air in an open circuit, and provided
with a condenser unit havign a cooling air outlet opening, a deflector element is
provided for mounting adjacent the cooling air outlet of the condenser unit. The deflector
element may selectively be mounted in one of two positions for deflecting the cooling
air excaping from the condenser unit directly towards a discharge opening of the machine
or towards the interior of the machine, and for at the same time defining an enclosed
chamber underneath the condenser unit. The first position of the deflector element
permits a removable condensate collector receptacle to be placed in an upper portion
of the dryer, while in the second position of the deflector element, the removable
receptacle is accommodated in the enclosed chamber underneath the condenser unit.
The invention permits the construction of the dryer to be standardized as far as possible
with a viewto the accommodation of the receptacle in either position.
