A door assembly for selectively opening and closing an access opening to a treating chamber of a laundry treating appliance includes an inner door wall and an outer door wall adjacent to the inner door wall, wherein the outer door wall and the inner door wall at least partially define an internal volume. The inner door wall includes a portion that is configured to extend at least partially into the treating chamber when the door is closed, and includes an air inlet and an air outlet. The door assembly is configured such that the internal volume is in fluid communication with an airflow inside the treating chamber when the door assembly is closed.

CONDENSER FOR DRYING EQUIPMENT, AND DRYING EQUIPMENT

A condenser for drying equipment, and drying equipment. The front side wall of a hollow chamber of the condenser includes a first arc structure, a second arc structure, and a flow dividing structure; the flow dividing structure is opposite to an air inlet; the left and right side walls of the hollow chamber are arc-shaped; the flow dividing structure can divide the gas entering from the air inlet into a first airflow and a second airflow, and enable the first airflow and the second airflow to enter the first arc structure and the second arc structure along a tangential direction of the first arc structure and second arc structure, to provide centrifugal and rotational airflow. Since the first airflow and the second airflow rise centrifugally and rotationally, the strokes of the first airflow and the second airflow in a condenser body are lengthened, thus improving the cooling effect.

WASHING MACHINE WITH DRYING FUNCTION

A washing machine with drying function includes a cabinet having a laundry insertion hole; a tub having a front opening, and a back opening; a drum; and a heated air supplying device above the tub that includes an evaporator, a condenser, a heater, a heat exchange duct, an inlet, a supply duct, and a blower fan. Air from the back opening of the tub is introduced into the inlet duct and is guided by the inlet duct and received by the heat exchange duct and then passes through the heat exchange duct in a lateral direction of the tub. The air passed through the heat exchange duct is received by the supply duct and discharged by the supply duct toward a front side of the tub. The blower fan forms causes the air discharged from the supply duct to be supplied to the tub.
