The exhaust pipe 6 communicates with the exhaust port 34 of the exhaust device 2, the communication means 8 is provided in the vicinity of the wall surface separating the laundry room 106 and the bathroom 105, the operation control means 12 is provided on the wall surface of the laundry room 106, One environment detection means 13 is provided in the vicinity of the suction port 32 of the exhaust device 2, and the second environment detection means 14 is provided outdoors, in the outdoor side introduction pipe 3 and the outdoor side exhaust pipe 5. Providing a heat exchange means 15 in. And the laundry 108 is dried to the laundry holding means 107 provided in the blower outlet 19 vicinity. Further, the position where the dehumidifying device 1 is provided is preferably as close to the ceiling as possible in order to secure a wider space for drying the laundry 108, and is most preferably in contact with the ceiling surface. In consideration of drying the laundry room 106 and the bathroom 105 to every corner, it is preferable to provide the communication means 8 at a position as close to the floor as possible.

  According to the dehumidifying system described above, the first environment detection unit 13 detects at least two states of the outdoor temperature, relative humidity, and absolute humidity in the laundry room 106 and the bathroom 105 and the second environment detection unit 14. As a result, the wet and wet bulb temperature difference between the two spaces can be calculated. When the outdoor temperature is high as in summer or when the bathroom 105 is highly humid as after bathing, the outdoor wet and dry bulb temperature difference is larger than the dry and wet bulb temperature difference of the air exhausted by the exhaust device 2. The outdoor air can be introduced into the dehumidifier 1 by arranging the shielding plate 42 at a position as shown in FIG. In addition, when the outdoor is high humidity such as during the rainy season, the wet and dry bulb temperature difference between the laundry room 106 and the bathroom 105 is larger than the outdoor wet and wet bulb temperature difference, and the shielding plate 42 is placed at the position shown in FIG. By arranging the air, the air exhausted from the exhaust device 2 can be introduced into the dehumidifier 1. By performing the control as described above, it is possible to select air having a larger temperature difference between the wet and dry bulbs and introduce it into the dehumidifying apparatus 1, and as a result, the laundry 108 can be dried more efficiently.

  Then, the air selected by the introduction air selection means 16 and introduced into the dehumidifying device 1 via the indoor side introduction pipe 4 is dehumidified and heated by the dehumidifying device 1 and blown out from the outlet 19 to the laundry room 106. . And since the laundry 108 is hold | maintained in the blower outlet 19 vicinity, the air which blown off from the blower outlet 19 to the laundry room 106 contacts the laundry 108 without being influenced by the surrounding thermal environment, and the laundry 108 vicinity Therefore, the laundry 108 can be quickly dried.

  Further, since the air outlet 19 is provided near the ceiling of the laundry room 106 and the communication means 8 is provided near the floor, the air blown from the air outlet 19 moves from the vicinity of the laundry room 106 to the vicinity of the floor, and as a result, the laundry The entire room 106 can be dried.

  When the laundry 108 is held in a wide range with respect to the air outlet 19, the dehumidified air supplied to the room from the dehumidifier 1 by the air direction control means 30 provided in the air outlet 19 is blown toward the entire laundry 108. Since it can control to take out, a lot of laundry can be dried efficiently.

  Further, by heating the air dehumidified by the dehumidification rotor 21 by the processing air heating means 29, the temperature difference between the wet and dry bulbs of the air in contact with the laundry can be further expanded, and as a result, the laundry can be dried more quickly. It becomes.

  Further, when the regeneration path forms a circulation path, the water removed from the air introduced into the dehumidification apparatus 1 by the dehumidification apparatus 1 is drained by the drainage path 28 and the drain pipe 11. The water is drained from the drain port 10 via. Further, when the regeneration path forms a ventilation path, it is discharged to the outdoors through the regeneration air exhaust pipe 7 and the outdoor side exhaust pipe 5 together with the regeneration air. Therefore, it is possible to save the user from draining the drain water in any route.

  Further, heat is exchanged between the air flowing through the outdoor side introduction pipe 3 and the air flowing through the outdoor side exhaust pipe 5 by the heat exchange means 15 provided in the outdoor side introduction pipe 3 and the outdoor side exhaust pipe 5. As a result, when the outdoor temperature is low as in winter, or when the temperature of the laundry room 106 and the bathroom 105 is high such as after bathing, the air flowing through the outdoor side introduction pipe 3 can be heated. It becomes possible to dry the laundry efficiently.

  When the purpose of using the dehumidifying system is to improve the comfort of the laundry room 106 such as after taking a bath instead of drying the laundry, the user operates the operation control means 12 to allow the discharge selection means 31 to ventilate the circulation path. You can change to a route. As a result, the sensible heat and latent heat of the high-temperature and high-humidity air after passing through the regeneration air heating means 25 and the dehumidifying rotor 21 can be discharged to the outside, so that dehumidification is performed without increasing the temperature of the laundry room 106. As a result, the comfort of the laundry room 106 can be improved.

  Further, when the present dehumidifying system is introduced after the house is constructed, the exhaust device provided in the bathroom 105 can be used as the exhaust device 2, so that it is not necessary to discard the existing exhaust device, Purchase costs and construction costs for the device 2 can be reduced.

(Embodiment 2)
FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of the dehumidification system in the second embodiment, FIG. 7 is a schematic sectional view of the dehumidifying device 44 in the second embodiment, and FIG. 8 is a schematic plan view in the second embodiment.

  The second embodiment uses substantially the same configuration as the dehumidifying system in the first embodiment. As a difference from the first embodiment, the dehumidifying device 44 is not in the laundry room 106 but in the laundry room 106 as shown in FIG. The air outlet 45 of the dehumidifying device 44 is provided on the ceiling 46 of the laundry room 106 as shown in FIG. As a result, the space between the washing machine 9 and the ceiling 46 is expanded as compared with the first embodiment, and as a result, the laundry 108 can be easily dried, and the large-sized laundry 108 is dried. Can do.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 8, the exhaust device 2 is provided in the bathroom 105, the second exhaust device 48 is provided in the toilet room 47, and the exhaust device 2, the second exhaust device 48, and the introduction air selection means 16 are connected to the indoor exhaust pipe. 6, the laundry room 106 and the bathroom 105 are communicated by the communication means 8, and the laundry room 106 and the toilet room 47 are communicated by the second communication means 49, so that the air dehumidified by the dehumidifier 1 is communicated. The air is exhausted from the exhaust device 2 and the second exhaust device 48 via the 8 and the second communication means 49. As a result, not only the bathroom 105 shown in Embodiment 1 but also the toilet room 47 can be dried at the same time.

  Here, when the corridor 50 is formed between the laundry room 106 and the toilet room 47, the door undercut through the laundry room 106 and the corridor 50 and the undercut through the corridor 50 and the toilet room 47 are communicated with the second communication. By setting it as the means 49, the effort which constructs the 2nd communication means 49 similarly to Embodiment 1 can be saved.

  Further, the exhaust device 2 of the existing toilet room 47 can be used as the second exhaust device 48 as in the first embodiment, and as a result, the purchase cost and the construction cost of the second exhaust device 48 can be reduced. .

  According to the present invention, as a dehumidifying system for drying laundry and a room, the laundry can be dried quickly, the existing exhaust device can be used as it is, and the initial cost can be reduced. Useful.
