Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a clothes dryer of this type, which allows a finishing agent to be effectively applied to clothes to be dried in a drum.

Drum-rotating clothes dryers dry clothes by rotating the drum and blowing hot air into them while agitating the clothes to be dried.As the clothes dry, the agitation causes friction between the clothes and friction between the clothes and the drum. Static electricity is generated. The amount of static electricity generated differs depending on the material of the clothing and the combination thereof, but when clothes made of nylon fiber and dIJ ester fiber are put in and dried at the same time, the amount of static electricity generated is particularly significant, and when the clothes are taken out of the drum, the amount of static electricity generated is extremely high. gives a considerable impact. Therefore, in order to prevent the generation of static electricity and to add flexibility to clothing, it has been proposed that a finishing agent can be applied within the dryer.

Such a conventional example will be explained with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. FIG. 1 is a vertical cross-sectional view showing an example of a drum-rotating clothes dryer, where l is an outer tank, 2 is a clothes loading lid, and 3 is a drum into which clothes to be dried are placed. It can be set freely.

In use, when the clothes to be dried are put into the clothes input port and the switch 4 is operated, the drum 3 is rotated by the motor 5 via the V-belt 6 to agitate the clothes to be dried. On the other hand, the motor 5 rotates the F/8 through the round belt 7, sucking air from the intake port 9, passing through the intake opening 11 of the heater box IO, heating the air in the heater 12, and heating the air at the drum intake port 13. You will be guided into Ridram 3. Here, the moisture in the clothes to be dried is evaporated, lint is removed by a filter 14, and then the clothes are exhausted from an exhaust port 15 by a fan 8.

The drum 3 has a cylindrical shape, and several baffle plates 16 are provided on its inner surface to ensure sufficient agitation of the clothes. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, nine finishing bags 17 made of cloth are fixed to the surface of this baffle plate 16 with double-sided adhesive tape 18. The finishing agent 19 used here begins to dry and the temperature inside the rad drum 3 gradually rises to a temperature of about 45%.
℃, it is eluted onto the surface of the bag 17 containing the finishing agent. As the drum 3 rotates, the surface of the bag 17 containing the finishing agent comes into contact with the clothing, so that the finishing agent is applied to the clothing, giving the clothing an antistatic effect and flexibility.

However, the conventional method as described above has the following drawbacks because it is configured only by adhesively fixing the finishing agent-containing bag 17i to the baffle plate 16.

(b) Finishing agents are applied to all dried clothes, and it is not easy to distinguish between using and not using finishing agents.

(b) Since the contact area between the bag containing the finishing agent and the clothing is constant,
The amount of finish applied cannot be adjusted.

←→ There is a possibility that the adhesive will peel off and the 9 bags of finishing inserts will come off.

In view of these points, the present invention provides a clothes dryer of this type that completely eliminates the above-mentioned drawbacks by utilizing the internal space of the baffle plate and makes it possible to use finishing agents effectively. It is intended to.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5. The figure shows the baffle plate portion of the clothes dryer of the present invention.
has an opening 24, and a bag 25 containing a finishing agent is housed therein. The finishing agent 34 in the bag is the same as described above. The finishing agent-containing bag 25 is pushed up by the spring plate 26 so as to protrude into the opening 24, and its edge 27 is clamped between the opening edge 28 and the spring plate 26.

Further, a sliding lid 29 is provided on the opening side of the baffle plate 21, and this sliding lid 29 consists of a protrusion 30 provided almost at the top of the baffle plate 21 and a notch provided at the bottom of the baffle plate 21. 31 and can be slid. In addition, several recesses 32 are provided in the protrusion 30 of the baffle plate 21, and a protrusion (not shown) is provided in a part of the sliding groove 33 provided in the sliding lid 29, so that the recess 32 and this protrusion are This allows the opening amount of the opening 24 to be changed in several stages, such as fully open, half open, and fully open.

Since the clothes dryer according to the present invention is configured as described above,
By operating the sliding lid 29 and changing the opening amount of the opening 24, it becomes possible to change the contact area of the finishing agent-containing bag 25 to the clothes to be dried, thereby adjusting the amount of the finishing agent attached. can. Also, if you don't need a finishing agent, you can open it fully.

As is clear from the above description, according to the present invention, it is possible to easily adjust the amount of finishing agent applied by simply operating the sliding lid.
Since it is possible to selectively use or not use the finishing agent, it becomes possible to effectively apply the finishing agent to the clothes to be dried.

Furthermore, as in the above-mentioned embodiment, the bag containing the finishing agent is clamped and fixed between the spring plate and the edge of the opening, so it does not come off like when conventional double-sided adhesive tape is used. Since the baffle plate can be attached to and removed from the drum, it has many advantages, such as being able to easily replace the polishing agent and perform maintenance outside the machine.
