Dryers for drying clothes, for example, are described in, for example, Japanese Utility Model No. 59-732298. As described in the official gazette, the air heated in the heating chamber is sent to the drying chamber, and the air exhausted from the drying chamber is cooled in the cooling chamber and included in the exhaust air. Solvent vapor and water are liquefied, and the air from which the solvent vapor has been separated is heated again in the heating chamber, circulated to be sent to the drying chamber, and dried while collecting the solvent. I am trying to do it.
そ し て、 循環経路中 の 溶剤濃度を検 出 し 、 フ ィ ル 夕 の 目 詰 ま り に よ る 通気空気の停止 ま た は流量低下 な ど に よ っ て 、 溶剤蒸気濃度が高 ま り 、 溶剤蒸気が爆発 し 易 い 濃度を検 出 し た と き に、 外気を乾燥室 に 吸入 し 、 乾燥室を通過 し た空気 を大気中 に放 出 し 、 溶剤蒸気が 爆発す る こ と を防止 し た構造が知 ら れて い る 。  Then, the concentration of the solvent in the circulation path is detected, and the concentration of the solvent vapor is increased by stopping the ventilation air due to clogging in the evening or decreasing the flow rate. When a concentration at which the solvent vapor is likely to explode is detected, the outside air is sucked into the drying chamber, and the air that has passed through the drying chamber is released into the atmosphere, and the solvent vapor explodes. Prevented structures are known.

However, it is released into the air while being contained in the exhaust air, and there is a problem that the odor of the solvent vapor comes out.
ま た、 上記従来の構造の乾燥機で は、 水洗 い洗濯 し た衣類な どの被乾燥物を乾燥 さ せ る 場合で も 、 空気を ド ラ イ ク リ 一 二 ン グ し た被乾燥物の乾燥 と 同様 に凝縮 器を配設 し た冷却室を通過 さ せ る た め 、 風路抵抗が高 く 、 水洗い洗濯の被乾燥物を乾燥 さ せ る 場台 に'は効率 ' が悪い 問題を有 し て い る 。  Also, in the above-described dryer having the conventional structure, even when drying the object to be dried such as clothes washed with water and washing, the air to be dried is dried. As in the case of drying, it passes through the cooling chamber where the condenser is installed, so the air path resistance is high, and the efficiency of the pedestal to dry the items to be washed and washed is poor. Yes.
こ の発明 は上記従来の衣類乾燥装置の 問題点を解決 し、 乾燥室を通過 し た空気を大気中 に放 出す る 際 に、 予 め冷却 し てか ら 放出す る よ う に し て、 排出空気 に含 ま れ る 溶剤蒸気を で き る だ け回収す る よ う に し 、 ま た 排 出 さ れた空気に多少の溶剤蒸気が含 ま れて い て も 冷 却 さ れて い る た め、 臭気の少な い状態で大気中 に放出 で き る 衣類な ど の乾'燥装置お よ び乾燥方法を 提供す る こ と を 目 的 と し て い る 。  The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems of the conventional clothes drying device, and when air that has passed through the drying chamber is discharged into the atmosphere, the air is cooled beforehand and then discharged. Recover as much of the solvent vapor as possible in the exhaust air, and if the exhaust air contains some solvent vapor, it is cooled. Therefore, the objective is to provide a drying device and a drying method for clothes and the like that can be released into the atmosphere with little odor.

In addition, the petroleum dry cleaning solvent is recovered, and when drying the object to be dried without using a solvent such as washing with water, the air path with low air path resistance is used.

Forming a solvent recovery circulation path with the suction path having the heating chamber and the cooling chamber which is connected to and communicated with the exhaust path and the suction path and communicates with the solvent recovery path; Opening / closing to introduce outside air into the air intake path of the solvent recovery circuit, an independent outside air inlet is provided, and the air intake path and the outside air side are provided on the outlet side of the cooling chamber. It is equipped with a switching damper for selectively communicating with each other.
そ し て、 乾燥室 の衣類な どの被乾燥物を乾燥す る に は、 加熱室で加熱 さ れた空気を乾燥室 に送込み、 乾燥 室の乾燥 ド ラ ム に 収納 さ れて い る 被乾燥物 に 含 ま れて い る 溶剤を蒸発 さ せ る と と も に水分を蒸発 さ せ、 こ の 溶剤蒸気 と 水分 と を含ん だ空気を冷却室 に送込み、 冷 却 し て水分 と と も に溶剤蒸気を液化分離 し 、 冷却 さ れ た 空気 は再 び加熱室で加熱 さ れて乾燥室 に 送込み、 空 気 は加熱室、 乾燥室お よ び冷却室を順次循環 し て溶剤 回収が行わ れ る 。 ま た、 溶剤蒸気濃度が高 ま っ た と き 、 ま た は、 溶剤回収循環行程 に お い て外気を導入す る 場 合、 さ ら に は、 乾燥行程終了時 に、 乾燥室の 空気を大 気中 に放出す る と き 、 排気空気 は冷却 さ れて放出 さ れ る た め、 冷却 に よ っ て、 空気中 の溶剤蒸気 は分離回収 さ れ、 溶剤の 回収効率が高 ま り 、 ま た、 大気中 に 多少 の溶剤が含 ま れて い て も 、 冷却 さ れて い る た め、 臭気 が少な く な る 。 Then, in order to dry the object to be dried, such as clothes in the drying room, the air heated in the heating room is sent to the drying room, and the object stored in the drying drum in the drying room is dried. The solvent contained in the dried product is evaporated, and the water is evaporated.The air containing the solvent vapor and the moisture is sent to the cooling room, and cooled to remove the moisture and water. In addition, the solvent vapor is liquefied and separated, and the cooled air is heated again in the heating chamber and sent to the drying chamber, and the air is circulated through the heating chamber, drying chamber, and cooling chamber in order to recover the solvent. Is performed. Also, when the solvent vapor concentration increases, or when outside air is introduced during the solvent recovery circulation process, the air in the drying chamber should be exhausted at the end of the drying process. When discharged into the atmosphere, the exhaust air is released after being cooled, so the solvent vapor in the air is separated and collected by cooling. As a result, the solvent recovery efficiency is improved, and even if the air contains a small amount of solvent, the odor is reduced because it is cooled.
