The present invention relates to a drum type dryer, and more particularly, to a dryer provided with a device for safely drying clothes or shoes that are easily damaged.

In general, a washing machine, a dryer or a combined washing machine provided with a drum device is a device using a rotational motion of a drum. That is, as the drum rotates, the laundry inside the drum also rotates, and the laundry rises and falls by the rotation.

For example, in the drum washing machine, a collision with the washing water occurs due to the rising and falling of the laundry, and the dirt on the laundry is removed by the collision.

In the case of a drum type dryer, a hot air generated by an electric heater or a gas combustion device is blown into a drum to absorb moisture remaining in a drying object and to dry the drying object.

The present invention relates to a dryer for drying laundry by the rotation of the drum, hereinafter will be described taking a drum device used in the dryer as an example.

1 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing a condensing drum dryer.

Referring to Figure 1, the condensation-type drum dryer is configured to control the opening and closing of the cabinet 10, the cylindrical drum 12 formed inside the cabinet 10, and the drum 12 to form an appearance A door 13 and a belt 11 surrounding the outer circumferential surface of the drum 12 are included.

In addition, the motor shaft 21 is connected to the belt 11, the motor 17 is connected to the motor shaft to provide a rotational force, and the rotational force of the motor 17 is connected to the motor shaft 21 A cooling fan 16 that sucks and rotates the indoor air is included.

In addition, a drying fan 18 connected to the motor shaft 21 opposite the cooling fan 16 to circulate air inside the drum, and air sucked by the drying fan 18 may be connected to the drum ( As a passage to be moved to 12, the drying duct 19 is provided with a heat generating unit 20 therein.

In addition, a lint filter 14 formed below the opening through which the door 13 is inserted to filter foreign matter such as lint and the like contained in the wet air discharged from the drum, and air entering the lint filter 14 are condensers (not shown). It further includes a circulation duct 15 which is a passage to be moved to).

Hereinafter, the operation of the dryer will be described.

First, when power is applied to the dryer, the motor 17 rotates, and the heater 20 attached to the drying duct 19 is heated. In addition, the belt 11 connected to the motor shaft 21 rotates to rotate the drum 12. Then, as the drum 12 rotates, the object to be dried in the drum rotates along the inner wall of the drum and falls by its own weight when it reaches the uppermost side. Here, the object to be dried is lifted by a lift (not shown) attached to the inner wall of the drum.

On the other hand, the drying fan 18 connected to the motor shaft 21 is operated with the rotation of the motor 17, the circulating air passing through the lint filter 14 is sucked. The sucked air rises along the drying duct 19 and becomes a high temperature dry state through the heater. Then, the hot dry air absorbs the moisture present in the object to be dried while passing through the drum, resulting in a high temperature and high humidity.

In addition, the air of the high temperature and high humidity is again filtered by the lint filter 14 and then moved to a capacitor (not shown) along the circulation duct 15.

In addition, the cooling fan 16 connected to the motor shaft 21 is rotated to suck the indoor air outside the dryer. The sucked indoor air is then passed through a cooling fan 16 to the condenser.

Here, the hot and humid air moved to the capacitor along the circulation duct 15 and the indoor air sucked by the cooling fan 16 and moved to the capacitor pass through the capacitor. In addition, the hot and humid air and the indoor air are not mixed with each other by the shape of the capacitor, and only heat exchange occurs.

Therefore, the high temperature and high humidity air is changed to low temperature and high humidity air while losing heat to the indoor air while passing through the condenser. Then, as the temperature decreases, moisture contained in the air condenses and falls to the bottom of the condenser, and moves to a sump (not shown) in which condensate is collected.

In addition, the water moved to the sump is moved to a condensate reservoir (not shown) located at the top of the dryer by a condensation pump.

On the other hand, the indoor air passing through the capacitor takes the heat of the high temperature and high humidity air and converts it into low temperature and high humidity air, and the temperature becomes high.

In the case of the general dryer having the above configuration, the laundry introduced into the drying chamber is mixed by the rotation of the drum. At this time, as the various types of fabrics are entangled, a problem occurs that the fabric is stretched or hedged. In particular, when drying in a dryer, if the cloth is easily damaged, or laundry that cannot be washed by handling the same as general laundry, such as sneakers, has to be dried separately.

The present invention has been proposed to solve the above problems, to provide a dryer equipped with a device that allows to dry in the dryer even laundry, such as sneakers that can not be dried with cloth or general laundry that is easy to damage The purpose.
