ABSTRACT:
A door sealing assembly in a laundry dryer having a hinged door employs a unified sealing member provided as a single sealing member including a large diameter part, a small diameter part, a tip and a lip disposed in correspondence to the various components of the laundry dryer. The reduced number of sealing members improves the sealing properties of the door sealing assembly, simplifies fabrication, and reduces production cost. The laundry dryer includes a door frame, the door frame being provided with a door glass; a frame cover having a frame cover panel in which an entrance hole is formed for receiving the door frame, the frame cover panel having an inner end surface; a front support, coupled with the frame cover, for supporting a drum, the front support having a front support panel having an inner end surface; and a unified sealing member, fixed to the inner end surfaces of the frame cover panel and the front support panel, providing for simultaneous contact with surfaces of the door frame and the door glass when the hinged door is closed.
