Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

The present invention provides two horizontal drums in a rectangular frame at the rotation position,
Clothes drying r which supplies heated 9 air into this drum and dries the clothes inside! Regarding a, the purpose is to reduce the depth of the drum and make the machine frame thinner, and C2.
Drum Y
This is the second thing to do. The drying machine frame 42 has an outside air intake port and a discharge port for discharging exhaust gas from the drum, which are arranged in the 1st section of the main body to make it easier to arrange them, and the outside air intake port and the discharge port which are arranged in the 1st section to make it easier to clean them. It is. In recent years, clothes dryers are often used in combination with the washing machine 4111, placed above the wash basin, or placed along an indoor wall, etc., which has affected the ease of use of the washing machine and the indoor From the standpoint of subphases, it has become desirable to reduce the depth and make the shaft thinner. This necessarily means that the drum must also be thin. However, in conventional dryers of this type, the protection of the heated air in the drum (in the drum) is limited to one stirring direction of the drum, that is, the rotational axis direction H.
It was common for people to get angry. With this flow, if the depth of the drum (the depth of the drum in the light-rear direction) V is reduced to make it thinner, the internal volume of the drum vli1 will not be reduced, but the diameter of the drum and the length of the top and bottom will be the same. Because it will be long,
The heated air was sufficiently heated from the top to the bottom of the drum. It has been proposed that the drum be heated and air flowed between the top and bottom of the drum, but since there is a hole in the peripheral wall of the drum for heating air, there is no possibility that this hole will be blocked by clothing or clogged. Heating! The flow of air is not smooth, which results in longer drying times and poor drying efficiency.The present invention has been made in view of this problem, and it heats from the lower part of the front opening of the drum. From C2, supplying 9 air into the drum and exhausting it to the outside of the drum from the upper part of the front opening.
IL is designed to ensure high drying efficiency even when the drum is made thin.

In this way (second), the processing steps can be reduced and The loss of the material layer can also be reduced. Figure 91 shows another embodiment in which a discharge port (6I) is provided toward the ceiling of the machine frame and the material is discharged upward from the exhaust Y of the drum (31). @(Those with the same function as the 2+ factor are given the same drawing number χ.Like this (- means the exhaust duct)
Since Cm faces upward, the resistance of the exhaust line can be reduced, the air volume can be increased, and the drying efficiency can be further improved. In the above embodiment, the partition plate aaW donut-shaped C; the lever partition plate - the second class pores (b) and the exhaust hole 31t were provided, but
The partition plate 117J has a ring shape (as shown in Figure 11).
It is also possible to provide 0 lower part of this partition plate - intake hole csaY: upper part ζ - exhaust hole @, or provide 6 intake holes only in the lower part of the ring-shaped partition plate 1, and does not provide an exhaust hole, and directs the air from the drum 131 to the front of the machine frame.
:It may be possible to discharge from the provided discharge port (to).Those having the same function as the 11th (1st) and 1st (fl) figures are given the same numbers as the prefectural (2) figures. According to the structure of the present invention, heated air is supplied into the drum from the lower part in the front opening of the drum, and is exhausted from the upper part. Even when the drum is made thinner, the heated air can be uniformly passed through the drum, and it can promote heat exchange with the moisture contained in the clothes. : Therefore, it is possible to make the drum thinner, that is, the machine frame.Also, the machine frame ζ
: The outside air intake and discharge ports χ can be easily placed in front of the main body, and maintenance and inspection of these can be made easy. In addition, as in this embodiment, if the outside air is sucked in from the outside air intake to increase the pressure inside the machine frame and supplied to the heated 9-atm YF ram, the drum's electricity will be reset from the outside air intake. The duct does not have to be 6-layered, and the design can be made thinner.
