Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to a clothes dryer technical field, concretely relates to clothes dryer waterproof structure. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the operation process of the clothes dryer, the clothes being dried will produce moisture. The waterproof structure can prevent these moisture from leaking to the outside of the clothes dryer, avoiding damage to the clothes dryer itself or the surrounding environment. By preventing moisture leakage, the waterproof structure helps to protect the internal electronic components and mechanical parts of the clothes dryer from being damaged due to moisture, and prevents safety risks such as short circuit or electric shock caused by water contact with power lines or other electrical components. The waterproof structure usually includes designs such as drainage holes and drainage plates, which can effectively guide and drain the moisture generated inside the clothes dryer, keeping the inside dry. By keeping the inside of the clothes dryer dry, the waterproof structure helps to improve the drying efficiency, ensuring that the clothes can be dried faster and more evenly.
