The drum is journaled upon a combined bearing and air seal means at each end. A heat pump is incorporated as the source of heat for the drying air, as a means for recirculating heat from the drying air exhausted from the tumbling drum, and as a means for removing entrained moisture from the exhausted drying air. The dryer is adapted to operate from a 110 volt household power supply and requires no air vent to the outside.
