clothes dryer

Abstract

The clothes dryer is equipped with: an outer box (11); a drying chamber, which is arranged in the outer box (11), has an outlet (193) and an inlet (194); a circulating air duct (30), which is arranged outside the drying room, and connects Exit (193) and inlet (194); Fan (42), is arranged in the air circulation duct (30), is used for the air in the drying room is sucked in the air circulation duct (30) from outlet (193), and circulates The air in the air duct (30) is supplied to the drying chamber from the inlet (194); the fan cover (50), which constitutes a part of the circulating air duct (30), is provided with a fan (42) inside; the heater (41) , arranged in the air circulation duct (30), for heating the air in the air circulation duct (30); and the exhaust port (57), the fan (42) and the heater (41 ), used to discharge the air in the circulating air duct (30) to the outside of the circulating air duct (30).

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to a clothes dryer. Background technique [0002] A heater-type clothes dryer dries clothes in a drying chamber by supplying air heated by a heater into the drying chamber. Conventionally, there are roughly two types of such clothes dryers: an exhaust type and a circulation type. The exhaust type makes the air introduced from the outside into hot air by the heater, and dries the clothes in the drying chamber with the hot air. Then, the air that has absorbed moisture from the laundry is completely exhausted to the outside of the laundry dryer. Accordingly, since it is not necessary to dehumidify the air containing a large amount of moisture, a mechanism for dehumidifying is not required, and a relatively simple configuration can be set. However, after the air heated by the heater absorbs moisture from the clothes, it is finally exhausted entirely to the outside. Therefore, in the conventional exhaust type ...

Problems solved by technology

In this case, if electrical components are placed at the location where dew condensation occurs, the dew condensation may cause adverse effects such as insulation degradation of the electrical components.

In addition, when the dew condensation water appears in a place where the user can observe it, the user may mistakenly think that there is a water leak.

[0006] In addition, in the case of splashing water on the cabinet of the clothes dryer, there is a possibility that that water may soak into the inside of the cabinet of the clothes dryer from the exhaust port.

Furthermore, if electrical components are installed at the place where the water enters, similar to the above-mentioned dew condensation water, there may be adverse effects such as a decrease in insulation of the electrical components.
