Abstract

PURPOSE:To continuously keep the drying capacity by housing an electronic cooling element, cooling fins fixed to the heat absorbing side of the cooling element, and heat radiation fins fixed to the heat radiation side of the cooling element in the box body having draft holes. CONSTITUTION:When an electric power source is connected with plugs 31, AC voltage is reduced through a transformer 34, and DC voltage is impressed to the cooling element 9. The heat absorption is generated thereby in the heat absorption side 9a of the cooling element 9, and cooling fins 13 are cooled, and the moisture in the air is condensed to be water drops which drop down from the lower end part of fins. On the other hand, the heat generation action occurs in the heat radiation side of the cooling element 9, and the heat is transmitted to the heat radiation fins 12 through a heat transfer body 10 and discharged through the draft holes 3c to the outside of the box body 1. By this method, the air outside of the box 1 is dehumidified and kept in dry state, and the moisture absorbing capacity is improved.

Next, when the plug (31) is connected to the power supply, the AC voltage is stepped down by the transformer (34), rectified by the rectifying element (35), and smoothed by the smoothing capacitor (36). is applied to element (9). Now the cooling element (9
), an endothermic action occurs on the endothermic side (9a) of the cooling fin (
13) is cooled, water vapor in the air condenses on its surface, and when the amount increases, it becomes water droplets and drips from the lower tip. Fin plate (13a) of cooling fin (13)
Since the lower end of the container is slanted downward and the upper and lower edges are shaped like blades, water droplets can easily flow downward and drip. These water droplets pass through the cylindrical body (8b) of the lid (8) and are stored in the water storage tank (6). On the other hand, heat generation occurs on the heat radiation side of the cooling element (9),
This heat is transmitted to the heat radiation fins (l2) through the heat transfer body (10), and is radiated to the outside of the box (1) through the ventilation holes (3c). As described above, the air outside the box body (1) is vented through the ventilation holes (3a
) through condensation on the cooling fins (13),
Moisture is removed from the air outside the box (1) and the air is kept dry. Now, during use, water droplets are stored in the water storage tank (6), but most of the opening on the top surface of the water storage tank (6) is closed by the lid (8), and the cylindrical body (8b) is closed. Since only that portion is open upward, the amount of water evaporating from the water storage tank (6) is limited, and the dehumidification effect of the cooling element (9) is unlikely to be affected. When the water storage area in the water storage tank (6) increases and becomes full, the water floats (2).
l) floats up, the head of the shaft (21a) rotates the lever (16), and the full water detection switch (14) is activated to cut off the circuit of the cooling element (9) and prevent water droplets from forming due to condensation. prevent. At the same time, the alarm (22) sounds to notify that the water is full and urges the water to be removed.

Since the engagement with the stopper (18a) is released, the water storage tank (6) can be pulled out forward.

After pulling out the water tank (6), remove the hanger (7), carry it, and drain the water inside the water tank (6).
Store the empty water storage tank (6) inside the outer frame (2),
When the lever (18) is pushed down, the lever (18) is brought to a horizontal position by the stopper (2e), the lever (16) is also brought to the horizontal position by the stopper (20), and the full water detection switch (14) is returned to its original position. In addition, the power circuit part (5) is connected from the ventilation hole (4a) to the ventilation hole (
Heat is dissipated by the air flowing to 3b).

Note that the on time and off time of the timer (33) are set respectively depending on conditions such as season and purpose of use. For example, when using it for a closet during the rainy season, adjust the timer (33) and set it to turn on continuously. This is because the ambient temperature is high during the rainy season, so the cooling fins (l3)
This is because the temperature does not drop below 0.degree. C. and frost or ice does not form, so dew condensation continues even during continuous operation, allowing water to drip. Further, when using it for a closet in winter, the timer (33) is adjusted so that it is turned on for one hour and turned off for 10 minutes, for example. That is, when the ambient temperature is low, the temperature of the surface of the cooling fin (l3) decreases, so that it easily freezes. By repeatedly turning it on and off at appropriate time intervals, ice can be melted and water can drip, thereby maintaining the moisture absorbing effect.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, in the first aspect of the present invention, the electronic cooling element and the cooling fins and radiation fins fixed thereto are housed in a box having ventilation holes, so that the cooling element is not energized. Then, a heat absorption effect occurs on the heat absorption side, and the surface of the cooling fins forms dew, frost, or ice, and moisture in the space outside the box body is absorbed through the ventilation holes. It has the effect of being able to maintain its drying ability semi-permanently and exhibiting a moisture absorption capacity that is more than 10 times that of commercially available chemical desiccants. In addition, in the second aspect of the present invention, since the energization and de-energization times of the cooling element are changed, the moisture absorption state by the cooling fins changes, and a cooling temperature suitable for the season is set to increase the moisture absorption capacity. There is an effect that can be done.

In addition, in the third aspect of the present invention, since the water storage tank is provided below the cooling fins, moisture generated by dew condensation, frost formation, or freezing on the cooling fins is stored in the water storage tank, eliminating the need for additional work for drainage. It has the effect of In addition, in the fourth aspect of the present invention, the circuit is cut off when the water storage tank is full, and an acoustic notification is also provided, so that the water does not overflow from the tank and the user is notified of this. This has the effect of promoting drainage.
