Patent ID: 8468718

Claim:
A home laundry drier comprising an outer box casing and, inside the casing, a laundry drying container for housing the laundry to be dried, and a steam generator for feeding steam into said laundry drying container; the steam generator comprising a steam-generating boiler designed to receive water and convert it into a stream of low-pressure steam whose pressure is higher than external pressure, at least one steam injection nozzle structured for projecting jets of low-pressure steam directly inside the laundry drying container, and a steam exhaust manifold connecting the outlet of the steam-generating boiler to the steam injection nozzle for feeding the low-pressure steam produced by the steam-generating boiler directly to said steam injection nozzle; the steam injection nozzle being located over the steam-generating boiler, wherein said steam exhaust manifold is dimensioned so that the maximum speed of the low-pressure steam flowing along at least one portion of said steam exhaust manifold is lower than 9 m/s, so to cause the natural flowing of the water droplets resulting from steam condensation inside the steam exhaust manifold back to the outlet of the steam-generating boiler.
