- Clothes dryers usually include machines purely having a function of a clothes dryer and machines integrated with clothes washing and clothes drying functions.
- a drying principle of a clothes dryer may be generally summarized as follows: under an effect of a heating apparatus, after being heated by the heating apparatus, dry air forms dry hot air, which then enters a drying drum to exchange heat with wet clothes and removes moisture from the clothes, and forms relatively damp hot air; upon condensation by a condensing apparatus, moisture of the damp hot air is condensed into water, which is then discharged through a drain pipe; after being condensed, the air becomes relatively dry cold air, and under an effect of a fan, is led into the heating apparatus again, and forms dry hot air after being heated to enter a next cycle; and such a process is repeated until a drying program ends.
- the condensing apparatus may include a cooling water supply apparatus. After meeting with wet hot air, cooling water reduces the temperature of the hot air, to separate moisture from the hot air.

Description
- The present invention relates to a clothes dryer including a condensing apparatus, where the condensing apparatus includes a hot air channel, in communication with a drying chamber, and a water supply apparatus for feeding cooling water into the hot air channel.
- Clothes dryers usually include machines purely having a function of a clothes dryer and machines integrated with clothes washing and clothes drying functions. A drying principle of a clothes dryer may be generally summarized as follows: under an effect of a heating apparatus, after being heated by the heating apparatus, dry air forms dry hot air, which then enters a drying drum to exchange heat with wet clothes and removes moisture from the clothes, and forms relatively damp hot air; upon condensation by a condensing apparatus, moisture of the damp hot air is condensed into water, which is then discharged through a drain pipe; after being condensed, the air becomes relatively dry cold air, and under an effect of a fan, is led into the heating apparatus again, and forms dry hot air after being heated to enter a next cycle; and such a process is repeated until a drying program ends.
- The condensing apparatus may include a cooling water supply apparatus. After meeting with wet hot air, cooling water reduces the temperature of the hot air, to separate moisture from the hot air. After entering a hot air channel, the cooling water is likely to be blown about by a high-speed air flow, a condensing effect is unstable. Meanwhile, water droplets that are blown about may enter the fan and a heating channel that are downstream in a circulation direction of the hot air, resulting in reduction of drying efficiency.
- An objective of the present invention is to improve condensing efficiency of a condensing apparatus of an existing clothes dryer.
- For the foregoing objective, the present invention provides a clothes dryer including a condensing apparatus, where a condensing apparatus includes a hot air channel, in communication with a drying chamber, and a water supply apparatus, for feeding cooling water into the hot air channel, an inlet of the hot air channel being located at a lower location, an outlet of the hot air channel being located at a higher location, where at least one flow guide rib is formed on a wall of the hot air channel, an upper end of the flow guide rib is close to an outlet of the water supply apparatus, a lower end thereof is close to the inlet of hot air channel, and the flow guide rib and the wall of the hot air channel define a cooling water flowing area together. After entering the hot air channel, the cooling water subsequently enters the cooling water flowing area defined by the flow guide rib and the wall of the hot air channel together. In this area, a water flow flows downward along the wall. The flow guide rib also avoids transverse interference of hot air, so that the water flow is stable and would not be splashed randomly. Therefore, a condensing effect is more stable, and condensing efficiency is improved.
- A further improvement of the present invention is that: the wall included by the hot air channel includes a first wall and a second wall that face each other and that are relatively broad and a third wall that connects the first wall and the second wall and that is relatively narrow, a first flow guide rib is located on the first wall, a second flow guide rib is located on the second wall, and the cooling water flowing area is formed on the first wall, the second wall, and the third wall that use the first flow guide rib and the second flow guide rib as boundaries. In such a structure, both the wall of the hot air channel and the flow guide rib implement a flow guiding function, so that the water flow stably flows along a side of the hot air channel.
- Preferably, the outlet of the water supply apparatus is higher than a horizontal centerline of the hot air channel, and is disposed toward the cooling water flowing area. Such deposition provides a longer heat exchange path for the cooling water, and meanwhile, ensures the water to flow into the cooling water flowing area.
- A protruding structure that transversely extends out is disposed below the cooling water flowing area. On the one hand, the protruding structure blocks and changes a flowing path of the cooling water, so that the cooling water transversely is dispersed on a surface of the protruding structure; on the other hand, the protruding structure blocks hot air below, to cause turbulence of the hot air. Hence, the turbulent hot air meets the dispersed cooling water at a location of the protruding structure, and the two get in sufficient contact with each other, disturb each other, and perform heat exchange. In view of this, the protruding structure produces a significant positive effect. Meanwhile, because the protruding structure is disposed below the cooling water flowing area, when arriving at the protruding structure, the cooling water has accumulated a certain amount of potential energy, so that the cooling water is dispersed on the protruding structure.
- Particularly, the protruding structure extends out from the third wall toward an interior of the hot air channel and includes a free end extending out toward a central area of a cross section of the hot air channel in a suspended manner. The cooling water flows out from the free end, so that the cooling water is closer to the central area of the cross section of the hot air channel, and gets in sufficient contact with the hot air below.
- Further, the protruding structure connects the first wall and the second wall. Hence, the cooling water only falls down on the free end of the protruding structure, and is more likely to enter the central area of the cross section of the hot air channel.
- The hot air channel includes a bend proximal to the inlet, and the protruding structure is disposed at a bend joint. Air turbulence at the bend is stronger, and disposing the protruding structure at the bend more beneficially utilizes a design feature of the hot air channel and improves condensing efficiency.
- The protruding structure is a plate integrally formed with the wall of the hot air channel.
- The present invention is further described below by referring to the accompanying drawings.

To make the cooling water enter the coolingwater flowing area 12 more stable, theoutlet 81 of the water supply apparatus is disposed toward the coolingwater flowing area 12. - A
baffle plate 14 integrally manufactured with thethird wall 4c is disposed below the coolingwater flowing area 12 and transversely extends from thethird wall 4c toward the interior of thehot air channel 4. A side opposite to a side, on which thebaffle plate 14 is connected to thethird wall 4c, is afree end 141 extending toward a central area of a cross section of thehot air channel 4 in a suspended manner. Two other sides of thebaffle plate 14 may be connected to thefirst wall 4a and thesecond wall 4b. In a process of falling down along the coolingwater flowing area 12, the cooling water is blocked by thebaffle plate 14, then, changes a flowing path, is transversely dispersed on a surface of thebaffle plate 14, and falls into the central area of the cross section of thehot air channel 4 from thefree end 141. On the other hand, thebaffle plate 14 blocks hot air below, to cause turbulence of the hot air.

Thehot air channel 4 includesbend 43 proximal to theinlet 41. Thebaffle plate 14 is disposed at a bend joint 44. Air turbulence at the bend is stronger, and disposing thebaffle plate 14 at the bend more beneficially utilizes a design feature of thehot air channel 4 and improves condensing efficiency. - The foregoing descriptions and various specific implementation manners shown in the accompanying drawings are merely used for describing the present invention rather than all of the present invention. Within the scope of the basic technical ideas of the present invention, a change made by a person of ordinary skill in related art to the present invention in any form shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
