Abstract

See full text

An automatic clothes dryer comprises a cabinet adapted for support on a support surface and defining an interior space. A drum is rotatably mounted within the interior space and defines a drying chamber. A drive motor is mounted within the interior space and has an output shaft operably coupled to the drum for rotating the drum. A blower is mounted within the interior space and is fluidly coupled to the drying chamber for moving air through the drying chamber. The blower has a drive shaft remote from the output shaft to permit the independent positioning of the blower and drive motor within the interior space. The blower has an outlet fluidly connected to an exhaust outlet through a conduit that defines an air flow path having less than a 90 degree change in direction.
