US Patent:
5806204, Sep 15, 1998
Filed:
Jun 13, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/876143
Inventors:
Karl H. Hoffman - Tequesta FL
Michael Pastore - Palm Beach Gardens FL
Walter Glowacki - Palm Beach Gardens FL
Assignee:
MMATS, Inc. - Riviera Beach FL
International Classification:
F26B 1330
US Classification:
34 92
Abstract:
A material drying apparatus having a sealable chamber for receipt of wet material, such as clothing. In this embodiment clothing placed into the chamber is dried upon the evacuation of air from the chamber wherein moisture drawn from the clothes is condensed on a condensate coil placed in the chamber. Heating coils placed around the chamber elevate the temperature to enhance condensate operation providing an energy efficient material dryer requiring no make-up air. Condensed water is purged after the drying process although provisions provide for an interim purge should excess liquid be drawn from the material.
