Abstract:
A dryer includes a cabinet (110) that defines an outer appearance of the dryer (100), and has at least one opening, a main drum (140) rotatably disposed in the cabinet (110) and configured to accommodate an object to be dried, a door portion(130) coupled to the cabinet (110) and configured to open and close the opening of the cabinet (110), and a sub drum (200) rotatably mounted to the door portion (130) and extending toward an inner space of the cabinet (110). The sub drum (200) defines an accommodation space that is separated from the inner space of the main drum (140).

Abstract:
Disclosed is a clothes dryer having a heat pump, the clothes dryer capable of enhancing energy efficiency by recovering waste heat to the maximum in correspondence to a capacity of the heat pump, capable of enhancing reliability by preventing overheating of a compressor and a heat exchange means, and capable of shortening drying time. The clothes dryer includes a body, a tub rotatably installed in the body, a suction duct installed at the body, and configured to suck external air and to supply the external air into the tub, an exhaustion duct configured to exhaust air having passed through the tub to outside of the body, and a heat pump having a heat exchange means for recovering waste heat by heat-exchanging air passing through the exhaustion duct, wherein part of the air exhausted via the exhaustion duct is heat-exchanged with the heat exchange means of the heat pump.
