ビス性に欠けるという問題があった。In the drawing, 1 is the dryer body, 2 is the lid, 3 is the input port,
4 is a butterfly plate shaft attached to the dryer main body 1, and 6 is a butterfly plate shaft 4.
A butterfly plate bearing 6 formed in a part of the lid 2 to pivotally support the
9 is a replacement hole for the latch, a door catch corresponding to the 7-piece latch 6, and an 8-piece door catch 7, and 9 is a replacement hole for the butterfly plate shaft 4. In the above configuration, if you want to change the direction in which the lid 2 opens due to installation or other reasons, you can either attach the butterfly plate shaft 5 to the replacement hole 9, or if you have not yet done so, install the door catch 6 to the replacement hole 8, and then move the lid 2 up and down. The butterfly plate shaft 4 was inserted into the butterfly plate bearing 5 after being reversed. However, this configuration has the problem of poor serviceability, as the screws must be removed or replaced during replacement.

11 is a lid, 12 is an inlet, 13 is a butterfly plate, 14 is a butterfly plate shaft,
16 is a butterfly plate bearing, 16 is a magnet A117 is a magnet A1g (Magneso) B, which has weaker magnetism than the magnet A1g, 18 is attached to the dryer main body 1o, and a magnet A16. This is a metal plate that corresponds to Magnet) B17.

。In the above configuration, the attraction force between the magnet A16 and the metal plate 18 is greater than the attraction force between the magnet A17 and the metal plate 18, so the lid 11 is attached to the magnet A16.
The magnet B17 side can be opened and closed using the side as a rotation axis. Also, magnet) A16 and magnet)
B17 can be easily attached and detached, so by replacing these two, the opening direction of the lid 11 can be reversed.

が容易になり、サービス性が向上するものである。Effects of the Invention As is clear from the above embodiments, the lid opening/closing mechanism of the clothes dryer of the present invention can easily change the opening direction of the lid, especially since a magnet is detachably attached to the butterfly plate of the lid. This will improve serviceability.
