HAND DRYING APPARATUS

摘要

Hand Drying Apparatus There is provided hand drying apparatus (10) comprising a main body (12), a cavity (14) formed in the main body (12) for receiving objects to be dried, an outlet (26) for draining fluid from the cavity (14) and a filter arrangement (100) including a filter housing (106) and a filter (120, 122), the filter (120, 122) being located within the filter housing (106) and downstream of the outlet (26), wherein the outlet (26) is defined by at least a part of the filter housing (106). This arrangement allows the path length between the filter (120, 122) and the outlet (26) to be minimised. This makes the arrangement more compact and easier to clean and to replace. This also makes the arrangement more hygienic because there is less opportunity for particulates and bacteria to block and infect the portion of the filter arrangement (100) between the outlet (26) and the filter (120, 122).
