Abstract

The clothes dryer according to the present invention includes a drum that is rotatably supported in a housing and agitates clothes, a window glass openably arranged in front of the drum and having a shape protruding toward a bottom part of the drum along a top-to-bottom direction, and a blower unit that sends drying air. The clothes dryer further includes a first air passage having a first air outlet opened in front of the drum for blowing drying air, and a nozzle arranged on the first air outlet outside the drum to blow the drying air toward the window glass. The window glass has a configuration that guides the drying air blown from the nozzle to a lower part of the drum. In this manner, the clothes can be efficiently evenly dried without being damaged.
