Abstract: The present invention relates to a dishwasher in which a blowing part, a heater part, and a absorbent, which constitute a sorption drying device, are arranged between a sump and a rear surface of a base so as to be as close as possible to the rear surface of the base and arranged in a long line in a leftward/rightward direction, such that the sorption drying device may effectively serve as a counterweight for preventing the dishwasher from falling over, and a volume and weight of a weight balance additionally provided may be reduced.

Abstract: A dish washer includes a heater for regenerating a moisture absorbent. A portion of the heater is received in a heater receiving portion, and the remaining portion thereof is received in an air introduction space under a moisture absorbent receiving space, such that air flow sufficiently heated by the heater may flow into the air introduction space, thereby reducing a possibility of local variation in the regeneration of the moisture absorbent, and the moisture absorbent is directly heated by radiant heat of the heater received in the air introduction space to improve heat emission efficiency and energy efficiency of the heater.

Abstract: A dish washer has a discharge flow path configured to carry air flow having passed through a moisture absorbent. The discharge flow path is defined between a cover of a moisture absorbent receiving space of a main housing and the moisture absorbent. The discharge flow path is configured to reduce non-uniformity in resistance against air flow having passed through the moisture absorbent inside the main housing and local non-uniformity in a moisture absorption amount to improve moisture absorption efficiency.

Abstract: A dishwasher includes a sorption drying device in which a heater is disposed in a linear air flow path extending in a downward inclination angle, at least a portion of air that has passed through the linear air flow path collides with a bottom surface of a moisture absorbent receiving portion and thus is introduced to a lower side of the moisture absorbent, so that a separate means for flow distribution is omitted, and heated air through the heater is evenly introduced to the moisture absorbent at a minimized flow resistance.
