[0085] In combination Figure 6 The bottom of the moisture removal fan cavity D5 is higher than the bottom of the condensing shell 2, so as to avoid the condensate water overflowing into the moisture removal fan cavity D5 in the shell 1 in the case of abnormal condensate water discharge and the like, and affecting the normal operation of the moisture removal fan D33. In a specific implementation, the bottom of the shell 1 can be appropriately sunken at the part of the condensing shell 2, or the bottom of the moisture removal fan cavity D5 can be appropriately raised, so that a vertical distance H3 between the bottom of the condensing shell 2 and the bottom of the moisture removal fan cavity D5 is between 40 mm and 60 mm, and the vertical distance H2 can be 40 mm, 50 mm, 55 mm or 60 mm, so that the bottom of the moisture removal fan cavity D5 is substantially at the same height as the bottom of the outlet end D34 of the moisture removal channel D3.

[0086] According to an embodiment of the present application, the bottom of the first flow guide portion D31 can have a height difference with the bottom of the condensing shell 2, and since the bottom of the moisture removal fan cavity D5 also has a height difference with the bottom of the condensing shell 2, the bottom of the condensing shell 2 forms a cavity with a closed peripheral surface, which is used to receive the cooling water generated by the condenser 3. According to another embodiment of the present application, the bottom of the first flow guide portion D31 can also be at the same height as the bottom of the moisture removal fan cavity D5, as long as the inlet end D35 of the condensing shell 2 is higher than the bottom of the moisture removal channel D3.

In other embodiments, the support portion D42 can also be a block integrally formed on the bottom of the air inlet channel D4, which is not limited here.

[0101] The drying module D provided by the present application can simplify the pipeline connected with the condensing assembly C, and improve the production and assembly efficiency. In addition, since the dehumidifying passage D3, the condenser 3 and the dehumidifying fan cavity D5 for assembling the dehumidifying fan D33 are all arranged in the housing 1, the dehumidifying fan D33 can be connected with the dehumidifying passage D3 by using the internal structure of the housing 1, and the air tightness requirement can be achieved without sealing element, so that the structure is simple and compact, and the production and assembly are facilitated.

[0102] It should be noted that the condensing assembly C of the drying module D can also adopt the technical solution in the related art that the condensing water of the condenser 3 and the generated cooling water are discharged through the corresponding pipeline, or other types of solutions, which are not limited herein.

When the dehumidifying airflow passes through the wheel disc module D1, the moisture in the dehumidifying airflow can be absorbed by the wheel disc module D1 and heated by the heating element to generate a dry airflow, which is transported to the drum R to remove the moisture in the drum R. At the same time of generating the dry airflow, the dehumidifying air is generated in the heating area D61, the dehumidifying fan D33 is started, and the dehumidifying air is guided out through the dehumidifying passage D3, so that the dehumidifying airflow is formed in the dehumidifying passage D3. ​

[0104] In combination Figure 5 And Figure 6 The bottom of the condensing shell 2 is lower than the outlet end of the dehumidification channel D3, so as to avoid the condensate water overflowing into the dehumidification turntable in the shell 1, affecting the dehumidification and dehumidification effect of the drying module D. In specific implementation, the bottom of the shell 1 can be appropriately sunken at the part of the condensing shell 2, or the bottom of the dehumidification channel D3 can be appropriately raised.

The first flow guide part D31 can be a slope, an arc surface, or a combination of a slope and an arc surface, which is not limited here.

[0106] In combination Figure 5 And Figure 6 The dehumidification channel D3 has opposite first and second side parts D32 and D33, the first side part D32 is connected to one side of the air inlet 22, the other side of the air inlet 22 is provided with a support part 27 extending into the air inlet 22, and the second side part D33 is connected to the support part 27 through a second flow guide part D32.
