A drum washing machine and a clothes dryer equipped with a thermoelectric module are disclosed. The thermoelectric module includes a heat absorption side and a heat dissipation side which absorbs and dissipates heat at a junction between two dissimilar metals depending on direction of current flow through the junction. The heat absorption side is disposed at a hot air flowing passage. Accordingly, the drying apparatus can increase energy efficiency with minor structural modification and becomes environmentally friendly unlike a conventional drying apparatus using a heat pump.

The invention allows cool rooms or sea containers designed for frozen goods to handle produce requiring more precisely controlled temperatures and conditions, e.g., vegetables and fruits requiring temperatures in the chilling range and often also needing control or modification of the atmosphere. Each load of produce (100) (e.g. of pallet size) is held in the sea container or cool room but is sealed from the air of the refrigerated environment by, for example, a plastics bag (56). The atmosphere within the bag is then circulated by a fan (12) (or by convection currents from a heating element) so as to pass through the load and around it via ducts (30) provided adjacent the bag (56). Heat exchange (50) between the circulating gas and the refrigerated environment, via the plastics film, serves to cool the load. However, if cooling is excessive a heating element can be used to raise the temperature of the circulating atmosphere. Gas composition of the atmosphere can be controlled by scrubbing, flushing, etc. via pipes from a central unit or at each load individually or by choosing semi-permeable plastic for the sealing bags.

A hanger rod is provided for a clothes drying cabinet. The rod includes a plurality of notches, each adapted to receive a hanger. Each notch is V-shaped, with opposite side walls which converge downwardly to a substantially pointed apex. The rod has front and rear walls defining a thickness ranging between 30%-75% of the hanger hook diameter. The notches provide four contact points on the hanger hook to prevent rotation of the hanger hook on the rod during the drying process.

A low temperature clothes dryer having a drying chamber provides removable horizontal screens supporting clothing items and a hanging bar for hanging clothes to be dried. A timing control allows setting the time of operation of the drying cabinet. An electric heater with thermostat is provided to initially raise and maintain the air temperature within the drying chamber to at least about 90 degrees F. The dehumidifier is then operated, providing for circulation through the ducts and drying cabinet by an internal fan. The dehumidifier has an evaporator through which warm, humid air is passed, thereby cooling the air and condensing water therefrom, the water being collected in a removable container or drained through a drain hose. The fan forces the cooled, dried air through a condenser which heats the dried air for recirculation through the drying chamber by means of ducts, thereby drying the clothing therein.

There is provided a dry board received and fixed in a dry drum. The dry board is mounted in the dry drum and laundry such as shoes can be stably dried.

The invention discloses a granary lateral ventilation method and a system thereof. In the invention, a ventilation tunnel is arranged on the inside wall of the granary which covers a sealing film on the surface of grain, lateral ventilation is carried out on all grain piles in the granary. Compared with cage on the ground and geosyncline vertical ventilation system in the granary, the ventilation tunnels are small in quantity, ventilation way ratio is small, ventilation uniformity is good, ventilation dead corner is hardly existed, ventilation efficiency is high and energy consumption is low. Besides, installation or disassemble of cage on the ground for transporting the grain in and out in the prior art is avoided. The grain terrace is not provided with a ventilation tunnel in any form and the terrace is complete, thus being convenient for mechanized grain transportation, lowering the labor intensity of grain transporter and saving time for grain transportation.

Disclosed is an apparatus for drying and conditioning sports equipment and apparel. A base contains an airflow generator, such as a motorized fan. Ambient temperature air is conveyed through a plurality of tubular members. Apertures in the tubular members allow for airflow to be conveyed to the surface of sports equipment or apparel. The sports equipment and apparel is maintained a distance from the apertures by pegs, pins or other support members. The base may contain a pad for conveying airflow with a fragrance or an antifungal agent.

A device for compacting a contoured elongate composite layup includes flexible first and second fiber reinforced resin flexible sections flexible along their lengths. The first section is flexible within a first plane and the second section is flexible within the first plane as well as within a second plane.

The invention discloses an air-conditioning storage method, which comprises the following steps of: a, laying a protection pad layer on the ground; b, laying a composite membrane bottom sleeve on the protection pad layer; c, stacking the stored objects on the composite membrane bottom sleeve; d, laying a top membrane on the top of the stored object stack, and then covering a composite membrane top cover; e, thermally sealing the composite membrane bottom sleeve and the composite membrane top cover together by using a plastic envelope machine, and reserving a hole; f, connecting an exhaust fan at the reserved hole in the step e to exhaust the gas in the stack so as to make the composite membrane attach the stored objects; g, forming a small hole on the opposite side of the reserved hole of the composite membrane, and connecting a gas detector; h, filling nitrogen and/or carbon dioxide into the reserved hole in the step e, and stopping filling when the concentration of the gas measured by the gas detector reaches the preset concentration; and i, sealing all the holes by using a thermal plastic envelope machine, and finishing the storage. The air-conditioning storage method can rapidly kill various insects in the stored objects, suppress mold growth, and guarantee the quality of the stored objects.
