AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a heat pump mounting box for a heat pump drier or washer-drier machine that has a function of supplementing cooling air to improve clothes drying performance. The heat pump mounting box has a cooling air supplement port and a bypass orifice that allows low-temperature dry ambient air to enter the mounting chamber and mix with high humidity and high-temperature drying air, lowering the temperature of the condenser and avoiding overheating of the heat pump drying system. This results in improved clothes drying performance using the heat pump mounting box. The heat pump drier or washer-drier machine employing the heat pump mounting box avoids overheating and facilitates componentization and modularization of production and installation.

Problems solved by technology

For a heat pump drier or washer-drier machine in the related art, due to the high temperature of drying air, a heat pump drying system is easily subject to overheating, thereby degrading the clothes drying performance.
