Abstract

PURPOSE:To effectively dehydrate clothes by locating an electric heater, e.g. ceramic heater, on the delivery side of a blast fan and discharging not air, passing through an electric heater, through a hot air delivery port, formed in the bottom part of a clothes containing cabinet, toward the clothes side. CONSTITUTION:When wet clothes after washing are hung on hangers 3 in a cabinet 1 and a source switch is turned ON, the electromagnetic water feed valve of a cooling water pipe is opened, a blast fan is run, and an electric heater is energized. Air in a clothe containing cabinet enters through a suction port above a ventilation duct 5 on a rear side wall and flows through a heat exchanger located below for cooling and dehydration. The air is sucked and discharged with the aid of a blast 11 along a flow as shown by (a), and heated by means of an electric heater. Heater dry air (b) is discharged through a hot air delivery port 13, formed in the bottom part of the clothe containing cabinet 1, and discharged toward the clothe side to dry clothes. Air by means of which clothes are dried is brought into a high humidity state and sucked with the aid of the blast fan again. Through repetition of aboves, clothes drying is effected.

Conventional Technology Conventional So-called cabinet-type clothes dryers, which dry clothes by hanging them up, blow hot air into a cabinet to dry the clothes, and exhaust the humid air outside the cabinet into the room. Problems that the invention aims to solve Conventionally, as mentioned above, cabinet-type clothes dryers had the problem of exhausting hot air with high humidity, which worsened the indoor living environment. Means for Solving the Problems The present invention solves the conventional problems by using a water-cooled heat exchanger inside the clothes dryer instead of discharging the humid hot air used to dry clothes outside the clothes dryer. On the night after dehumidification, a warm air is heated with a heater and discharged into the cabin, which is then circulated to dry the clothes. A ventilation duct is installed on the rear side wall, and an intake port is opened above the ventilation duct.The lower part of the ventilation duct is connected to the intake side of a heat exchanger installed at the bottom of the clothing storage cabinet, and the cooling water that passes through this heat exchanger is connected to the intake side of the heat exchanger installed at the bottom of the clothes storage cabinet. Cooling water such as tap water is passed through the pipe, the intake port of the blower fan is connected in series to the exhaust port side of the heat exchanger, and a heating heater such as a ceramic heater is installed on the discharge side of this blower fan. This is a clothes dryer that blows warm air toward the clothes from the hot air outlet at the bottom of the clothes storage cabinet.Therefore, even though hot and humid air is not discharged into the room, there is also a cooling water pipe in the heat exchanger. An electromagnetic water supply valve is installed on the cooling water side of the cooling water. A temperature sensor such as a thermistor installed on the cooling water inlet and outlet side detects the temperature difference between the cooling water inlet and outlet, and opens and closes the electromagnetic water supply valve. Since it controls the amount of water to the optimum level, there is no wastage of cooling water and it has a water-saving function.Furthermore, a temperature detection sensor such as a thermostat is installed on the inner wall of the ventilation duct on the rear side wall of the clothes storage cabinet, so that the temperature detection sensor such as a thermostat is installed near the end of drying. Even if the power is turned off and the drying process is automatically terminated when the temperature of the ventilation inside the ventilation duct rises, the present invention has the above-described structure, and the damp clothes are stored in the cabinet after washing. When you turn on the power switch, the electromagnetic water supply valve of the cooling water pipe opens, the blower fan rotates, and the heater is energized.The air inside the clothes storage cabinet enters from the upper intake port of the ventilation duct on the rear side wall. The heated dry air (b) passes through a heat exchanger below, is cooled and dehumidified, is sucked into a blower fan according to the flow shown in (a) in Figure 1, and is then heated by a heating heater (b). The air that dries the clothes is discharged from the hot air outlet at the bottom of the storage cabinet toward the clothes, but the air that dries the clothes becomes humid air (C), which is sucked in from above the ventilation duct and cooled through the heat exchanger below. Even if the clothes are dehumidified and sucked by the fan again, and the clothes are dried by repeating this process, Figure 1 shows the cross section of a clothes dryer according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 shows the electric circuit, and Figure 3 shows the cabinet. In Figure 1 and Figure 2, which shows changes in internal temperature and cooling water temperature, (1) is a clothes storage cabinet (hereinafter referred to as the cabinet). ), (2) is the cabinet door, (3)
(4) is a hanger for hanging clothes, (4) is a ventilation duct installed on the rear side wall of the cabinet (1) for clothes to be dried (5), and (6) is a heat exchanger installed at the bottom of the cabinet (]). , Cool by passing tap water through the cooling pipe (7) 7)
. (8) is a cooling fin, and water droplets that have condensed on its surface drip downward and are discharged to the outside of the machine through the drain plate 9) & (10) is the drain outlet, L (11)
) is a blower fan that sucks the cooled and dehumidified air (a) through the heat exchanger (6) and blows the air to the heating heater (12) side The heated dry air (a) that has passed through the heating heater (12) , b) is blown out from the warm air outlet (13) at the bottom of the cabinet (1), dries the clothes (4), becomes moist air (c), and is blown out from the air intake port (1) above the ventilation duct (5).
4) Cooling fins (8) of heat exchanger (6)
It is cooled and dehumidified by touching it. The dehumidified air (a) is blown toward the heater (12) by the blower fan (11) to become dry air (b), which is then discharged again from the warm air outlet (13) to dry the clothes (4). This process is repeated to complete the drying process. (15) is a control circuit switch that detects the temperature difference shown by △t in Figure 3 by detecting the temperature of the thermistor (16) on the cooling water side of the heat exchanger (6) and the thermistor (17) on the outlet side. Then, the opening and closing of the electromagnetic water supply valve (18) is controlled to obtain the optimum amount of cooling water & (1
9) is a temperature detection sensor Δ such as a thermostat attached to the inner wall of the ventilation duct (5). When the clothes (4) dry and the temperature inside the cabinet (1) rises, the temperature curve inside the cabinet (A ) of point (P) (for example, about 80
℃), this sensor (19) works, sends a signal to the control circuit switch (15) in Figure 2, turns off the power supply circuit, and automatically ends the drying operation. With this invention, a cabinet-type clothes dryer has a dehumidifying mechanism that uses cooling water and a heat exchanger inside the machine.It does not discharge hot humid air outside the machine and improves the indoor living environment. There is no need to worry about making things worse. Since the sprayed water rises and dries the entire clothes, the efficiency of drying the clothes is improved.Furthermore, the electromagnetic water supply valve detects the temperature difference between the inlet and outlet sides of the cooling water and optimizes the amount of cooling water. The opening and closing of the cabinet is controlled, so there is no wastage of cooling water. (When the temperature inside the cabinet rises as one drying process progresses and nears the end of drying, the control circuit switch is activated by the temperature detection sensor in the ventilation duct, and the A cabinet-type clothes dryer can be useful, such as when the drying operation ends.
