Dehumidifier

Abstract

A dehumidifier according to an embodiment comprises: a main body which suctions air through a suction port and discharges same through a discharge port; a heat exchange part which removes moisture in the air suctioned through the suction port and comprises an evaporator and a condenser; a blowing part disposed between the suction port and the heat exchange part and guides the air from the suction port to the evaporator of the heat exchange part; and an accommodation part disposed under the evaporator and accommodating dehumidified water generated by the evaporator. The evaporator is obliquely disposed with respect to the longitudinal axis of the main body and toward the accommodation part, and the dehumidified water condensed by means of the evaporator can be dropped into the accommodation part by gravity.

1 . A dehumidifier comprising:
 a body configured to suction air through an inlet and discharge the air through an outlet;   a heat exchanger comprising an evaporator and a condenser and configured to remove moisture in the air suctioned through the inlet;   a blower disposed between the inlet and the heat exchanger to guide the air from the inlet to the evaporator of the heat exchanger; and   an accommodator disposed under the evaporator to accept dehumidification water generated in the evaporator,   wherein the evaporator is obliquely disposed based on a longitudinal axis of the body to face the accommodator, so that the dehumidification water condensed in the evaporator falls into the accommodator by force of gravity.   
     
     
         2 . The dehumidifier of  claim 1 , wherein the condenser is obliquely disposed above the evaporator based on the longitudinal axis of the body to face an upper surface of the body and
 the air passing the evaporator rises toward the condenser.   
     
     
         3 . The dehumidifier of  claim 2 , further comprising:
 a guide disposed between the evaporator and the condenser,   wherein the guide is configured to extend from an upper end of the inlet toward an inside of the body and formed in a shape that covers the evaporator and the blower and   the air passing the evaporator is guided by the guide to the condenser.   
     
     
         4 . The dehumidifier of  claim 3 , wherein a lower end of the guide is bent in a direction away from the evaporator or in a direction toward the condenser. 
     
     
         5 . The dehumidifier of  claim 4 , wherein the blower is obliquely disposed based on the longitudinal axis of the body to face the accommodator. 
     
     
         6 . The dehumidifier of  claim 5 , wherein the inlet is formed in a rear surface of the body,
 the outlet is formed in a top surface of the body,   the blower allows the air suctioned through the inlet to travel toward the evaporator, and   the air passing the evaporator passes the condenser to be discharged through the outlet to an outside.   
     
     
         7 . A dehumidifier comprising:
 a body configured to suction air through an inlet and discharge the air through an outlet;   an accommodator disposed in the body to accept dehumidification water;   a blower disposed above the accommodator to guide the air suctioned through the inlet toward the accommodator;   an evaporator disposed between the blower and the accommodator and configured to cool the suctioned air to condense moisture in the air; and   a condenser configured to heat the air having passed the evaporator while condensing a refrigerant used in the dehumidifier.   
     
     
         8 . The dehumidifier of  claim 7 , wherein the evaporator and the blower are obliquely disposed based on a longitudinal axis of the body to face the accommodator, so that the dehumidification water condensed in the evaporator falls into the accommodator by force of gravity. 
     
     
         9 . The dehumidifier of  claim 8 , further comprising:
 a guide disposed above the evaporator and the blower,   wherein the guide is formed to cover the blower and the evaporator,   a lower end of the guide is bent in a direction away from the evaporator or in a direction toward an upper surface of the body, and   the air passing the evaporator is guided along the guide toward a side surface or the upper surface of the body.   
     
     
         10 . The dehumidifier of  claim 8 , wherein the condenser is disposed between an upper surface of the body and the guide and
 the air passing the evaporator rises toward the condenser.   
     
     
         11 . The dehumidifier of  claim 7 , wherein the inlet is formed in a front surface or a rear surface of the body,
 the outlet is formed in a top surface of the body,   the blower allows the air suctioned through the inlet to travel toward the evaporator, and   the air passing the evaporator passes the condenser to be discharged through the outlet to an outside.
