To connect your tumble dryer's 10mm drainage hose to the sink's drainage system, you'll need a suitable adapter that can transition from the sink's interlocking knob screw plug to the size of your dryer's hose. Here’s a step-by-step approach to finding the right connector:

1. Identify the Size and Type of the Sink Connector: Check the diameter and type of the threading on your sink's interlocking knob screw plug. This is often standardized, but you'll need the exact measurements.
2. Hose Adapter: You’re looking for an adapter that has one end compatible with the threading and diameter of the sink's plug and another end that can securely fit a 10mm hose. These are often termed as "hose barb adapters," where one end will thread onto your sink plug and the other end will be a barbed fitting that the hose clamps onto.
3. Materials: Ensure that the material of the adapter is suitable for use with water. Brass or plastic adapters are commonly used for such purposes, depending on the compatibility with your existing setup.
4. Clamps: To secure the hose to the adapter, you will need a hose clamp that fits the outer diameter of your hose once it’s on the adapter. This prevents leaks and secures the hose in place.
5. Check for Compatibility: Since you have a specific model of a tumble dryer (Freestanding 9kg RapiDry Tumble Dryer B5T4923R), it would be a good idea to check the manufacturer’s recommendations for drainage kits or adapters.
6. Purchase: These parts can usually be found at hardware stores, home improvement stores, or online. Bringing the hose or measurements with you when shopping can help ensure compatibility.

This setup should enable a secure and functional connection between your dryer's drainage hose and the sink's drainage system, facilitating efficient water outflow during the drying process.
