Abstract: A tumble dryer (1) comprising: a rotatable drying drum (21), adapted to receive laundry to be dried, said drum (21) comprising a cylindric outer periphery (27) provided with a plurality of openings (25); at least one particle separation filter (29) arranged below the drying drum (21), said filter (29) having a width corresponding to at least 50% of the cylindrical diameter of the drum (21); a fan (39) and a funnel shaped interface (45) adapted for formation of a tapering transmission channel between the at least one filter (29) and the fan (39). The fan (39) being a radial fan, having an axis (47) arranged with an inclination (?) of 0-25° from a vertical direction (V), such that an air stream that is introduced into the drum (21) leaves the drum (21) through the periphery (27) thereof, is led through the at least one filter (29), is collected by the funnel shaped interface (45), and directed towards a rear part of the tumble dryer (1) by the fan (39).

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a laundry washing machine, comprising a rotatable drum (3), a suspension arrangement (29, 31) carrying the drum in relation to a base structure (7) located under the washing machine on which the washing machine rests, and a load sensing device (9), configured to sense the load of the drum (3). A first structural element (11) extends in a first plane and is connected to either of the drum and the suspension arrangement, and a second structural element (13) extends in a second plane, parallel with the first plane, and is connected to the other of the drum and the suspension arrangement. The load sensing device is attached to the second structural element on a surface thereof facing away from the first structural element and is connected to the first structural element. This allows for a compact load sensing arrangement.
