Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention is a dryer that can easily dry towels, dishcloths, etc., and at the same time have the function of hanging them, so that hand towels, etc. can always be used hygienically in the bathroom or kitchen. It provides:

For example, in the bathroom, towels are provided for drying hands, but the towels are simply hung on a towel rack.
After wiping your hands two or three times, they quickly became damp, making them unsanitary.

In addition, dish towels commonly used in the kitchen have a similar appearance to the towels in the washroom, and this can be pointed out as one of the problems in kitchen work, which must be the most hygienic at home.

The present invention proposes a solution in view of this situation.

Examples thereof will be described below with reference to the drawings.

1 is a base that is attached to the wall of the kitchen or washroom, and 2 is a cylindrical frame that supports hand towels, etc. fixed to this base 1, and has a conical or pyramidal shape that is wide at the bottom and gradually narrows toward the top. None, with many ventilation holes.

Reference numeral 3 denotes a heating element installed near the lower end of the cylindrical frame 2, and for example, a self-heating control heater made of a resistor having a positive temperature coefficient of resistance is employed.

This has the advantage of not requiring temperature control components such as a thermostat.

Reference numeral 4 designates an air guide located above the heating element 3, whose peripheral edge is brought close to the inner edge of the cylindrical frame 2 to form a small gap, and which directs the hot air from the heating element 3 to the cylindrical frame. The heated air is raised along the inner wall surface of the cylindrical frame 2 to effectively supply the hot air to a hand towel or the like hung on the cylindrical frame 2.

This air guide 4 is designed to effectively guide the rising hot air.
It is best to curve the periphery upward.

5 is a spring break of towels, dishcloths, etc. hung on the cylindrical frame 2.

Note that various configurations of the cylindrical frame body 2 are possible, but
In order to effectively utilize the heat of the heating element 3, the wall surface corresponding to the height of the heating element 3 and the air guide 4 is made of a non-porous wall, and the upper end surface is also made of a non-porous wall, so that the rising hot air from the heating element 3 is It is better to prevent it from coming off only upward without resistance.

Further, various materials can be selected for the cylindrical frame 2, and for example, it may be made of a porous material such as a ceramic material.

Note that 6 in the figure is a wall surface.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is attached to a suitable wall surface in a washroom or kitchen, etc., and used as a hanging device for towels, dish towels, etc., and is dried by a heating element while being hung. You can always use dish towels hygienically.

Moreover, it has an extremely simple configuration and has the advantage of being available at low cost, so it has great practical value.
