    摘要: A dehumidifier for a vehicle lamp is provided which includes, a dehumidification case that is coupled to a lamp housing through the interior and exterior of the lamp. The dehumidifier includes a plurality of connected chambers and a suction path connected to the interior of the lamp and a discharge path connected to the exterior of the lamp. Further, a thermoelement is coupled to the connection part and has a first and second surface exposed to different chambers. An absorbent is disposed within the chambers and a valve is disposed within the suction path and the discharge path. A controller is configured to adjust the supply and direction of current and open and close the valve.
