  • Clothes dryer with noise reduced drum
    Patent number: 5901465
    Abstract: A clothes dryer is disclosed having improved noise insulation characteristics which requires minimum alteration of existing dryer drum construction thereby adding relatively little additional cost over and above the cost of materials. The clothes dryer has a rotating dryer drum with steel bands or straps fastened about the periphery of outside surface cylindrical wall of the dryer drum to absorb noise created by articles tumbling within the dryer drum during operation. An adhesive material is laminated to the band which secures the band to the outside wall of the dryer drum. Baffle mounting screws passing through the dryer drum are used to secure ends and intermediate parts of the band to the dryer drum.
