<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a dryer which maintains relatively high drying efficiency. <P>SOLUTION: The dryer is equipped with a drying tub to house clothes and an air circulating system circulating dry air. The circulating system includes a dehumidification unit, a blower to deliver dry air to the drying tub and a support element supporting the dehumidification unit. The support element includes a discharge port to discharge water component, a main slope inclined to guide a water component in the direction to the discharge port, a first slope formed below the dehumidification unit, and a first partition wall which is projected from the first slope and divides the first slope into a first upstream slope and a first downstream slope disposed closer to the blower than the first upstream slope. The first slope is inclined so that the water component flows towards the main slope. The first partition wall extends in a direction crossing the direction of the flow of the dry air towards the blower. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
