  • the switching to the external air introduction drying process may be performed based on the elapsed time after the start of the drying process, or based on the temperature inside the outer tub 20 detected by the temperature sensor, and the outer tub 20 detected by the humidity sensor. The humidity is coming.
  • the shutter 251 is opened in the lower exhaust air passage 230, so that the lower communication port 234 is opened.
  • the exhaust gas passing through the lower exhaust air passage 230 and the upper exhaust air passage 240 can be in a state in which the outside air can be taken in from the outside air intake port 223.
  • the blower fan 120 and the heater 130 operate.
  • the outside air taken in from the outside air intake port 223 passes through the filter chamber 220, mixes with the warm air taken in from the introduction port 222, and simultaneously flows to the intake air passage 210, and the warm air mixed with the outside air is sucked into the casing 110.
  • the outside air passes through the lower filter 311 and the upper filter 312 in the filter chamber 220, and foreign matter such as dust contained in the outside air is collected by the filters 311 and 312.
  • the flow rate of the warm air supplied into the outer tub 20 is increased by the amount corresponding to the intake of the outside air, so that a part of the warm air containing a large amount of moisture in the outer tub 20 is passed.
  • the lower exhaust air passage 230 and the upper exhaust air passage 240 are discharged to the outside of the casing 10 . That is, as indicated by the solid arrows in FIG. 9, a part of the warm air flowing in the outer tub 20 of the circulation air passage 50a is discharged from the internal exhaust port 115, and is discharged to the lower exhaust air passage 230 through the introduction port 235.
  • the warm air discharged into the lower exhaust air passage 230 sequentially flows through the first air passage 231 and the second air passage 232, and is discharged into the upper exhaust air passage 240 through the upper communication port 244.
  • the warm air discharged into the upper exhaust air passage 240 flows toward the exhaust port group 242 side, and is discharged to the outside of the casing 10 from each of the external exhaust ports 241 of the exhaust port group 242.
  • the moisture evaporated from the laundry is efficiently discharged from the inside of the outer tub 20 to the outside of the casing 10, and the inside of the outer tub 20 is easily dehumidified, thereby promoting the drying of the laundry.
  • a part of the warm air from the outer tub 20 flows through the circulation air passage 50a and is heated again by the heater 130, so that the temperature in the outer tub 20 is maintained high.
  • the external exhaust port 241 facing the outside of the casing 10 faces upward, so that the warm air discharged from the internal exhaust port 115 and flowing to the upper upper exhaust air passage 240 is easily discharged from the outside.
  • the port 241 is smoothly discharged. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the exhaust efficiency of the warm air containing a large amount of water is improved, and thus the drying efficiency of the laundry can be expected to be improved.
  • the upper communication port 244 which is the inlet of the warm air flowing to the upper exhaust air passage 240, is formed so as not to overlap all of the external exhaust ports 241 in the vertical direction. Therefore, the external exhaust port 241 is provided.
  • the incoming water does not drip directly to the upper communication port 244. Therefore, it is difficult for the water entering the upper exhaust air passage 240 to enter the upstream side through the upper communication port 244, and it is difficult to reach the lower exhaust air passage 230 and reach the inside of the rear housing 110, that is, the circulation air passage 50a.
  • the electric components such as the blower fan 120 and the heater 130 existing in the circulation air passage 50a are prevented from coming into contact with the incoming water.
  • a raised surface 243 that is raised above the surrounding surface is formed on the bottom surface of the upper exhaust air passage 240, and an upper communication port 244 is provided in the raised surface 243. Therefore, a water storage space capable of accumulating a certain amount of water before the water reaches the upper communication port 244 can be secured in the upper exhaust air passage 240. Thereby, even if a large amount of water enters into the upper exhaust air passage 240, it is difficult for the entered water to reach the upper communication port 244.
  • the bottom surface of the upper exhaust air passage 240 is provided with a drain port 247 and an inclined surface 248 that is inclined downward toward the drain port 247 side.
  • water that has entered from the external exhaust port 241 and dripped onto the bottom surface of the upper exhaust air passage 240 easily flows down the inclined surface 248 and is guided to the drain port 247.
  • the water guided to the drain port 247 passes through the drain cylinder 140, and is discharged from the lower end portion of the drain cylinder 140 to the bottom of the tub 20. Thereby, it is more difficult for the water entering the upper exhaust air passage 240 to reach the upper communication port 244.
  • water dripping to the bottom surface of the upper exhaust air passage 240 may be accumulated in the groove portion 249.
  • the overflowed water flows down the inclined surface 248 and is guided to the drain port 247. Further, the water stored in the groove portion 249 is quickly evaporated naturally.
  • the water that has passed through the external exhaust port 241 from the outside of the casing 10 and travels obliquely straight to the upper communication port 244 is blocked by the first rib 245 and the second rib 246. Therefore, it is more difficult for the water entering the upper exhaust air passage 240 to reach the upper communication port 244. Further, water that has entered the upper exhaust air passage 240 and passes over the upper surface of the upper exhaust air passage 240 to reach above the upper communication port 244 is blocked by the second rib 246. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the entering water from dripping from above to the upper communication port 244 through the top surface of the upper exhaust air passage 240.
  • the introduction port 235 of the lower exhaust air passage 230 that is, the internal exhaust port 115 connected to the introduction port 235 is provided so as not to overlap the upper communication port 244 in the vertical direction. Therefore, even if the water that has entered the upper exhaust air passage 240 and reaches the upper communication port 244 falls into the lower exhaust air passage 230, the water does not directly reach the internal exhaust port 115. Therefore, even if water enters the lower exhaust air passage 230, it is difficult for the water to reach the circulation air passage 50a.
  • the bottom surface 232a of the second air passage 232 to which the lower exhaust air passage 230 is connected to the upper exhaust air passage 240 via the upper communication passage 244 is disposed lower than the bottom surface 231a of the first air passage 231. Therefore, it is possible to secure a water storage space in the second air passage 232 that can store a certain amount of water before the water reaches the lower communication port 234. Thus, even if water enters the lower exhaust air passage 230, it is more difficult for the water to reach the circulation air passage 50a. Further, since it is difficult for water to be stored in a position where the baffle 251 provided in the second air passage 232 is immersed in water, it is possible to prevent the opening and closing operation of the baffle 251 from being affected by the accumulated water.
  • the lower communication port 234 of the lower exhaust air passage 230 does not overlap the upper communication port 244 in the vertical direction, water does not drip directly from the upper communication port 244 to the lower communication port 234. It is difficult for water to enter the first air passage 231 through the lower communication port 234. Further, even if water enters the first air passage 231 and water flows through the bottom surface 231a of the first air passage 231, since the protruding portion 236 is provided around the introduction port 235, it is difficult for the entered water to reach the introduction port 235, and it is difficult to pass through the introduction port. 235 reaches the internal exhaust port 115.
  • the internal exhaust port 115 is provided in the casing 110 of the warm air generating unit 51. That is, the internal exhaust port 115 is provided at a position between the blower fan 120 and the heater 130 in the circulation air passage 50a.
  • the internal exhaust port 115 may also be disposed at any position within the circulation air passage 50a.
  • the internal exhaust port 115 may be provided in the circulation air passage 50a as the intake air passage 210 at the upstream position of the blower fan 120.
  • the lower exhaust air passage 230 is provided between the upper exhaust air passage 240 and the internal exhaust port 115 as a relay air passage.
  • the lower exhaust air passage 230 may not be provided, and the upper communication port 244 of the upper exhaust air passage 240 may be connected to the internal exhaust port 115 as an introduction port.
  • the flapper 251 is disposed in the lower communication port 234.
  • the baffle 251 may be disposed in the introduction port 235 to open and close the introduction port 235, or may be disposed in the upper communication port 244 to open and close the upper communication port 244.
  • both the first rib 245 and the second rib 246 are provided in the upper exhaust air passage 240.
  • only one of the first rib 245 and the second rib 246 may be provided in the upper exhaust air passage 240.
  • the exhaust cover portion 54 is formed integrally with the upper panel 12.
  • the hood portion 54 may be formed separately from the upper panel 12.
  • the present invention is also applicable to a drum-type washer-dryer in which a drying function of clothes is mounted in a drum-type washing machine in which a horizontal-axis type drum is disposed in an outer tub.
