Claims

A housing,
A water tank enclosed in the housing;
A drum contained in the water tank;
A heat exchange circuit for sequentially circulating the refrigerant to the compressor, the condenser and the evaporator;
Moisture absorption means provided on the ventilation path between the condenser and the evaporator;
First switching means for selectively switching to either one of a first path leading from the condenser into the drum or a second path leading from the condenser to the outside of the drum;
Second switching means for selectively switching to either one of a third path leading from the evaporator into the drum or a fourth path leading from the evaporator to the outside of the drum;
A controller that controls the first switching means and the second switching means,
The controller is
During the drying operation, the air for drying passes from the condenser to the drum so as to pass through the evaporator, the moisture absorbing means, the condenser, and the drum. Switching to the first path, and controlling the second switching means to switch to the third path leading from the evaporator into the drum,
During the regeneration operation for regenerating the moisture absorption means, the condensation air is supplied to the first switching means so that regeneration air from outside the drum passes through the condenser, the moisture absorption means, and the evaporator. Switching from the evaporator to the second path leading to the outside of the drum, and controlling the second switching means to switch from the evaporator to the fourth path leading to the outside of the drum,
A washing and drying machine further comprising a blowing means for generating an air current in a path through which the drying air or the regeneration air passes.

The washing / drying machine according to claim 1, wherein the second path that leads from the condenser to the outside of the drum is connected to the fourth path that leads from the evaporator to the outside of the drum.

The drum is provided with a drying air inlet for blowing the drying air into the drum and a drying air outlet for discharging the drying air out of the drum,
The washing dryer is
A regeneration pipe connecting the condenser and the evaporator;
A blowing pipe connecting the condenser and the dry air inlet;
A discharge pipe connecting the dry air outlet and the evaporator;
The blowing means is
During the drying operation, the drying air blown into the drum from the blow pipe is discharged from the drum through the discharge pipe, and again through the evaporator, the moisture absorption means, and the condenser, the blow pipe. A drying air blowing means for generating an air flow to be blown into the drum,
The playback operation, the said air for regeneration, the condenser, the moisture absorbing means, the evaporator and has a playback blowing means for generating an air current that goes through the regeneration pipe, according to claim 2, wherein Washing and drying machine.
