Condensing apparatus of dish washer

Abstract

A condensing apparatus of a dish washer is provided. The condensing apparatus includes an air duct and a blower. Vapor from inside a tub of the dish washer flows through the air duct in which it condenses. The blower has a condenser fan that blows air at the air duct to exchange heat with the vapor flowing through the air duct, and a dryer fan that provides suctioning force for suctioning vapor from inside the tub.

1 . A condensing apparatus of a dish washer for condensing vapor inside a dish washer tub, the condensing apparatus comprising:
 an air duct for circulating and condensing vapor from inside the tub; and   a blower including a condenser fan for blowing air at the air duct to exchange heat with the vapor circulating inside the air duct, and a dryer fan for providing suctioning force to suction vapor from inside the tub.   
     
     
         2 . The condensing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the condenser fan blows air along an outside of the air duct. 
     
     
         3 . The condensing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the blower further includes a motor for driving the condenser fan and the dryer fan together. 
     
     
         4 . The condensing apparatus according to  claim 3 , wherein the motor has a rotating shaft to which both the condenser fan and the dryer fan are mounted. 
     
     
         5 . The condensing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the condenser fan is disposed at a front of the blower. 
     
     
         6 . The condensing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the dryer and/or the condenser fan is a cross-flow fan. 
     
     
         7 . The condensing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the blower is disposed at a top of the air duct. 
     
     
         8 . The condensing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the air duct includes a condensed water discharge port for discharging moisture condensed from the vapor and a split-type vapor exhaust port for exhausting vapor from which moisture has been removed. 
     
     
         9 . The condensing apparatus according to  claim 8 , wherein the air duct further includes a portion between the condensed water discharge port and the vapor exhaust port, the portion being inclined at a predetermined angle to dispose the condensed water discharge port lower than the vapor exhaust port. 
     
     
         10 . A condensing apparatus of a dish washer for condensing vapor inside a dish washer tub, the condensing apparatus comprising:
 an air duct for circulating and condensing vapor from inside the tub;   a dryer fan for generating suctioning force to suction vapor from inside the tub into the air duct;   a motor for driving the dryer fan; and   a condenser fan for blowing air at the air duct to exchange heat with the vapor circulating inside the air duct, the condenser fan driven by the motor.   
     
     
         11 . The condensing apparatus according to  claim 10 , wherein the motor drives the dryer fan and the condenser fan together. 
     
     
         12 . The condensing apparatus according to  claim 11 , wherein the motor has a rotating shaft to which both the dryer fan and the condenser fan are coupled. 
     
     
         13 . The condensing apparatus according to  claim 10 , further comprising a blower to which the dryer fan, the motor, and the condenser fan are installed. 
     
     
         14 . The condensing apparatus according to  claim 13 , wherein the condenser fan is disposed at a front of the blower. 
     
     
         15 . The condensing apparatus according to  claim 10 , wherein the condenser fan blows air along an outside of the air duct. 
     
     
         16 . The condensing apparatus according to  claim 10 , wherein the dryer fan and/or the condenser fan is a cross-flow fan. 
     
     
         17 . A condensing apparatus of a dish washer comprising:
 an air duct for circulating and condensing vapor from inside a dish washer tub; and   a condenser fan for blowing air at the air duct to exchange heat with the vapor circulating inside the air duct.   
     
     
         18 . The condensing apparatus according to  claim 17 , wherein the condenser fan blows air along an outside of the air duct. 
     
     
         19 . The condensing apparatus according to  claim 17 , wherein the condenser fan is disposed at a top of the air duct. 
     
     
         20 . The condensing apparatus according to  claim 17 , further comprising a dryer fan providing suctioning force for suctioning the vapor into the air duct and a motor for driving the dryer fan, wherein the condenser fan is driven together with the dryer fan by the motor.
