A conventional dry cleaning apparatus is configured as shown in FIG. 1, for example, and at the start of the cleaning process, the cleaning solvent in the base tank 1 is
It is led into the washer 7 through the solenoid valve 2, the pump 3, the second solenoid valve 4, the solvent filter 5 and the third solenoid valve 6. During the cleaning process, the washer 7, the button trap 8, the fourth solenoid valve 9, the pump 3, the second solenoid valve 4, the solvent filter 5, and the third solenoid valve 6
The solvent circulation path that returns to the washer 7 through the washer 7 is closed, and the cleaning solvent is forcibly circulated. Note that the solvent filter 5 is normally of a cartridge type, such as a dry type or a paper type containing activated carbon, which traps fine impurities such as lint. Also, button trap 8 is 10 to 15
The filter is composed of a mesh-like coarse mesh filter, which traps relatively large insoluble impurities such as buttons, hard objects, lighters, etc. that have come off from the object to be washed, and prevents these impurities from entering the pump 3.

As described above, according to the dry cleaning apparatus of the present invention, the filter member is installed in the filter case, which has an opening leading to the washer drain duct in the abdomen, an opening leading to the blower air duct in the upper part, and a drain opening leading to the pump in the lower part. , the lower part of the filter member is located in a solvent circulation path from the washer to the filter case and the pump, and the upper part of the filter member is placed in a drying air passage from the washer to the filter case and the pump. By locating it in the circulation path, not only the filters for cleaning and drying processing are concentrated in one place, but also the filter member impregnated with the cleaning solvent during the cleaning processing.
Since the filter is dried during the drying process, its cleaning can be done at the same time, drastically reducing the effort, cost, and risk of cleaning and replacing the filter member. In particular, impurities adhering to the filter member not only tend to fall off due to drying, but also fall off due to vibrations during operation of the device, making maintenance very easy. Moreover, the lower part of the filter member is located in the solvent circulation path from the washer to the filter case and the pump, and the upper part of the filter member is located in the dry air circulation path from the washer to the filter case and the blower. The upper part of the filter member is not impregnated with the cleaning solvent during the cleaning process, and the drying air has good flowability, especially in the initial stage of the drying process.
