Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent a large quantity of cloth treating agent from adhering simultaneously by attaching a containing part for containing a mesh-like bag containing the cloth processing agent such as an antistatic agent, etc., to an inner wall of a drum, providing a net-like window on the containing part so that the cloth treating agent exhausted from the bag does not come into contact directly with clothings, and constituting the net-like window of a net which is subjected to resin treatment. CONSTITUTION:A bag body 37 filled with a antistatic agent 38 in the inside consists of cotton and polyester, and in a box-like resin case 39 for containing it, a net-like window 40 constituted of a net 40a is formed integrally in the center of one end face, and also, flanges 41, 42 are extended and provided on both side edges. Therefore, when the case 39 is installed in a first detaining/attaching part or a second detaining/ attaching part, the antistatic agent 38 is exhausted from the bag body 37 in the course of drying, adheres to clothing through the net-like window 40, and performs an antistatic effect to clothings. Also, by making the diameter of a mesh of the net-like window 40, large, to put it concretely, by setting it to >=0.4mm, the antistatic agent 38 does not form a film, and goes along the net 40a of the window and adheres gradually to clothings. In such a way, it can be prevented that a chemical agent adheres excessively to clothings and a stain appears.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (b) Industrial application field The present invention relates to a clothes dryer.

(B) Conventional technology As a conventional example, a horizontal shaft type drum supported within a frame is rotated and hot air is introduced into the drum to dry the clothes inside the drum and dry the clothes inside the drum. In 1977, a clothes dryer equipped with a storage section for storing a mesh-like bag containing fabric treatment agents such as antistatic agents was developed.
-19515 (Do 6M13y'34).

That is, the cloth treatment agent released from the bag adheres to the clothing as the drum rotates, thereby imparting a cloth treatment effect to the clothing.

(c) Problems to be Solved by the Invention In the conventional example, when the temperature inside the drum increases, the degree of dispersion of the fabric treatment agent increases, and when the capacity of the drum is small, the clothes and the bag come into contact with each other. It becomes easier.

In such a situation, a large amount of the fabric treatment agent may adhere to the clothing, causing stains on the clothing.

The present invention relates to improvements in clothes dryers and is intended to solve these problems.

(d) Means for solving the problem While rotating the horizontal shaft type drum supported within the frame,
This device dries the clothes in the drum by introducing hot air into the drum, and the inner wall of the drum has
A storage part is installed to store a mesh bag containing a fabric treatment agent such as an antistatic agent, and a mesh bag is installed in the storage part to prevent the fabric treatment agent released from the bag from coming into direct contact with clothing. A window is provided, and the mesh window is made of a resin-treated net.

(e) Even if a large amount of fabric treatment agent is released from the action bag, the window mesh will not be affected.
Since a curtain of the cloth treatment agent is not formed and the amount of cloth treatment agent that is attached to the net constituting the mesh is attached to the clothing, a large amount of cloth treatment agent does not adhere to the clothes at the same time.

Furthermore, since the surface of the net is treated with resin, there is less impregnation of the fabric treatment agent by the net itself, so even if the temperature inside the drum increases as drying progresses, there is no possibility that too much fabric treatment agent will adhere to the clothes. There is no (・＼) Example 1 is a machine frame of a clothes dryer 2, 3 is a clothes input port provided at the center of the front of this machine frame 1, and 4 is a machine frame after being fixed to the rear face of the machine frame 1.

Therefore, in this embodiment, the mesh diameter of the mesh window 4o is increased.
Specifically, by setting it to 0.4 mm or more, the fifth
As shown in the figure, the preventive agent 38 does not form a curtain, but gradually adheres to clothing through the window net 40a.

Furthermore, in the present invention, the surface of the net 40a constituting the mesh window 4o is treated with resin, so that the impregnation of the inhibitor into the net 40a is suppressed as much as possible, and therefore the net 40a is prevented from seeping out even when the temperature inside the drum increases. There are no chemicals and will not stain clothing.

(g) Effects of the Invention By treating the surface of the net with resin, impregnation with fabric treatment agents such as antistatic agents is made difficult, so that the chemicals do not adhere to clothing too much and cause stains.

By treating the net surface with resin, the net itself becomes stiffer, making insert molding easier.

By processing the net surface with resin, small irregularities are created on the surface. This prevents the fabric treatment agent from seeping out little by little and getting a large amount of it on one spot on the clothing, thereby preventing stains.
