Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve the airtightness of an inlet opening of a dryer for clothing by forming a plurality of projections on a surface at an outer peripheral external frame body front plate side, of the inlet opening, forming the holes on the external frame body front plate corresponding to the projections to be inserted therein, and forming the holes on a door packing on the positions corresponding to the projections to be inserted therein of the inlet opening. SOLUTION: A door packing 2-1 and a drum carrier packing are mounted to keep the airtightness of a door of a dryer and a drum carrier, on this occasion, at least three projections 20-1 are formed on a surface at an outer peripheral external frame body front plate 1-1 side of an inlet opening 20, and the holes 1-2 are formed on the external frame body front plate 1-1 corresponding to the projections to be inserted therein. Whereby the outer periphery can be regulated by the projections 20-1 and the holes 1-2 of the external frame body front plate even when the operation is repeated and the inlet opening 20 is thermally shrinked to become internally smaller, and the airtightness can be ensured. Further, by forming the holes 2-2 on the door packing 2-1 on the positions corresponding to the projections 20-1 to be inserted therein, the displacement of the door packing 2-1 can be regulated.
