Abstract: A drying apparatus is proposed. The main body (100) may constitute the frame of the drying apparatus. The fan receiving part (104) may be provided in an upper part of the main body (100), and the fan assembly (160) may be installed in the fan receiving part (104). In the fan receiving part (104), the fan of the fan assembly (160) may be relatively located at a side of a rear end of the main body (100), and a fan motor (170) may be relatively located at a side of the front end of the main body (100). Accordingly, outside air may be introduced through the side edges of the rear end of the main body (100); may flow through a filter assembly (180) directly to the fan housing (162); and may flow through the air exit (169) of the fan housing (162) directly to the duct (130).

Abstract: A forced airflow drying apparatus includes a body including an air inlet, a flow guide having a first end coupled to the air inlet and a second end opened to an upstream side of a filter unit, and an airflow generator to generate a forced airflow. The airflow generator has a first end and a second end, where the first end of the airflow generator is opened to a downstream side of the filter unit. An air outlet is in communication with the second end of the airflow generator to receive the forced airflow from the airflow generator and to expel the forced airflow out of the body.

Abstract: A drying apparatus is proposed. A main body (100) may constitute the frame of the drying apparatus. A front end frame (102) and a rear end frame (106) may constitute the exterior of the main body (100). A moving bar (230) may discharge air while moving up and down along the front surface of the main body (100). A duct (130) may be installed in the main body (100), and air flown by a fan assembly (160) may be separated in the duct and be discharged to a user through the edges of the front surface of the main body to dry the user. A drive assembly (210) moving the moving bar (230) up and down may be installed in the installation space (150) defined in the duct (130).
