Abstract: A method for a controller in an industrial control system is described. The method comprises accessing a first subset of data in a dataset, the first subset comprising a plurality of tuples, each tuple comprising a first state of the industrial control system, an action associated with the controller interacting with the industrial control system, a second state of the industrial control system, subsequent to the first state, that is transitioned into from the first state as a result of the controller performing the action and a parameter value in consideration of a parameter that is generated as a result of the industrial control system transitioning into the second state.

Abstract: A laundry washing machine having an outer casing, a washing tub, a rotatable drum and at least one balancing ring rigidly secured to the drum for reducing vibrations thereof. The balancing ring comprises an annular housing rigidly secured to the drum, an internal closed annular inner cavity, and balancing masses in free movable manner inside the annular inner cavity. The annular housing has first and second discrete and complementary annular hemishells that are joined to one another to form the annular inner cavity. The annular hemishells are substantially coplanar and concentric to one another, and have approximately C-shaped cross sections that are substantially complementary to one another. The hemishells are joined to one another along corresponding first and second mating annular rims, which are arranged on opposite sides of a given intermediate plane perpendicular to the central axis of the annular housing.

Abstract: A laundry washing machine having an outer casing, a washing tub, a rotatable drum and at least one balancing ring rigidly secured to the rotatable drum. The at least one balancing ring includes a substantially toroidal, annular housing that is rigidly secured to the drum, and has a tubular structure so as to delimit a closed annular inner cavity. A number of balancing masses are accommodated in movable manner inside the annular inner cavity, preferably together with a damping liquid. The annular housing has a substantially frustoconical outer wall segment that is inclined by an angle (?) lower than 90° with respect to the midplane (P) of the annular housing, and a peripheral supporting structure that juts out outwardly from the substantially frustoconical outer wall segment to stably abut against the body of the drum.

Abstract: A top adapted to match and close from above a cabinet of a laundry drying appliance is provided. The top is formed as a ready-to-mount part ready to be mounted to the cabinet and forming a moisture condensing module for dehydrating drying air used to dry laundry within a drying drum of the laundry drying appliance. The top has a drying air inlet for receiving moisture-laden drying air, a drying air outlet for delivering demoisturized drying air, fluid passageways defined thereinside from the drying air inlet to the drying air outlet for the passage of the drying air to be dehydrated and a moisture condenser arranged inside the fluid passageways.

Abstract: A laundry machine includes an integrated heat pump system. The laundry machine comprises a cabinet (10). A tub (12) is associated to the cabinet (10). An air line is fluidly connected to the tub and to the heat pump system for air recirculation. A rotatable drum (14) is arranged within the tub (12) and resiliently supported at the cabinet (10) and/or at the tub (12) so that the tub (12) is stationary with respect to the cabinet (10) during operation of the machine, in particular during rotation of the drum (14). At least a part of the components of the heat pump system is supported by the cabinet 10 and/or the tub (12).

Abstract: A laundry washer-dryer comprises a tub, a drum for storing laundry rotatably arranged inside the tub, an air circulation channel connected at a first end and at a second end to the tub, a blower for blowing the air through the air circulation channel, the tub and the drum, and a heat pump system having a compressor, an evaporator and a condenser, the evaporator and the condenser being arranged in the air circulation channel. A method for operating a washing cycle and a subsequent drying cycle in the laundry washer-dryer comprises performing the washing cycle, the washing cycle including at least one washing phase, at least one rinsing phase and at least one spinning phase, and performing the drying cycle including at least one drying phase. At least one last rinsing phase of the washing cycle is performed by using heated water so as to cause the temperature inside the tub to increase.

Abstract: A laundry treatment apparatus, in particular a dryer or a washing machine having dryer function, comprises a storing compartment for storing laundry therein, in particular a rotatable drum, an air circulation channel connected at a first end and at a second end to the storing compartment, a blower for blowing the air through the air circulation channel and the storing compartment, a heat pump system having an evaporator and a condenser arranged in the air circulation channel, and a steam generator arranged within the body of the laundry treatment apparatus. A method of operating the laundry treatment apparatus comprises supplying steam generated by the steam generator into the air circulation channel and/or the storing compartment, and at the same time at least for an overlapping period, operating the heat pump system.
