Abstract:
1. A laundry drying machine comprising a casing containing a rotatable drum for holding laundry to dry, a drying air circuit for conveying a drying air flow towards the inside of the drum and from it to the outside, at least one filter for intercepting fluff carried by the drying air flow, and a vibrator adapted to cause the filter to vibrate, so as to remove fluff from the filter, said vibrator comprising an exciter, attached to said casing, and an exciter-responsive element, attached to said filter, wherein said filter is selectively positionable between an operational position in which the filter is arranged in a seat intercepting said drying air circuit, and an extracted position in which the filter is removed from said seat, outside said drying air circuit and separated from said exciter, the exciter and the exciter-responsive element being adapted to reciprocally cooperate in order to cause the filter to vibrate when the filter is in the operational position in said seat, said exciter and said exciter-responsive element being configured to allow said filter to be slidably extracted from and inserted into the operational position in said seat without any separate detachment and attachment of said exciter from said exciter-responsive element, respectively.
