Washer-dryer

Abstract

The present disclosure discloses a washer-dryer. The washer-dryer includes a cabinet having an air supplement port; an inner drum rotatably disposed in the cabinet, defining a containing chamber therein, and having an air outlet communicating with the containing chamber; a heat pump disposed to the cabinet and close to the air supplement port; a first heat exchanger and a second heat exchanger, wherein the first heat exchanger has a first end communicating with a first end of the heat pump and a second end communicating with a first end of the second heat exchanger, and a second end of the second heat exchanger communicates with a second end of the heat pump, the first heat exchanger and an internal wall face of the cabinet define a condensation channel therebetween, the second heat exchanger and the internal wall face of the cabinet define a hot air channel therebetween, and the condensation channel communicates with the air outlet and the hot air channel; and a fan disposed in the cabinet to blow hot air in the hot air channel and around the heat pump into the containing chamber. In the washer-dryer according to embodiments of the present disclosure, a temperature of air around the heat pump can be reduced to dissipate heat, and a temperature of supplemented air can be raised to further raise a drying efficiency of the washer-dryer.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A washer-dryer comprising:
 a cabinet having an air supplement port;   an inner drum rotatably disposed in the cabinet, defining a containing chamber therein, and having an air outlet communicating with the containing chamber;   a heat pump disposed to the cabinet and close to the air supplement port;   a first heat exchanger and a second heat exchanger, wherein the first heat exchanger has a first end communicating with a first end of the heat pump and a second end communicating with a first end of the second heat exchanger, and a second end of the second heat exchanger communicates with a second end of the heat pump, the first heat exchanger and an internal wall face of the cabinet define a condensation channel therebetween, the second heat exchanger and the internal wall face of the cabinet define a hot air channel therebetween, and the condensation channel communicates with the air outlet and the hot air channel; and   a fan disposed in the cabinet to blow hot air in the hot air channel and around the heat pump into the containing chamber.   
     
     
         2 . The washer-dryer according to  claim 1 , wherein the cabinet has a heat pump mounting chamber used for mounting the heat pump, and the heat pump mounting chamber communicates with the air supplement port and the hot air channel. 
     
     
         3 . The washer-dryer according to  claim 2 , wherein the fan has an air inlet and an air outlet, the air inlet communicates with the hot air channel, and the air outlet communicates with the containing chamber. 
     
     
         4 . The washer-dryer according to  claim 3 , wherein the fan is disposed below the second heat exchanger, and the air inlet is located right under the second heat exchanger. 
     
     
         5 . The washer-dryer according to  claim 1 , further comprising a filter disposed between the air outlet and the first heat exchanger to filter air entering the condensation channel. 
     
     
         6 . The washer-dryer according to  claim 5 , wherein the filter has an inlet and an outlet, the inlet communicates with the air outlet, and the outlet communicates with the condensation channel. 
     
     
         7 . The washer-dryer according to  claim 6 , further comprising a vent pipe, wherein the vent pipe has two ends respectively communicating with the inlet and the air outlet. 
     
     
         8 . The washer-dryer according to  claim 7 , wherein the heat pump mounting chamber is disposed close to and spaced apart from the hot air channel.
