AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Also, in the case of the exhaust type dryer, if the lint clogs the exhaust hole for exhausting the used air to the outside and interrupts the flow of the air, it is not easy for the user to check the clogging of the exhaust hole.

[0010] In addition, existing dryers judge or check for blockage of the discharge hole, but provide no additional safety device for the user in the event of a blockage of the discharge hole
