ABSTRACT:
A lint and raveling collector for a clothes dryer is installed on the side of the rotating drum. The lint and raveling collector has a lint and raveling filter and a lint and raveling collecting box. The lint and raveling filter has a net-like filter member, and ribs provided on the surface of the net-like filter member to prevent friction between the filter member and the clothing. The collecting box has an opening formed at its portion facing the ribs. The collecting box covers the lint and raveling filter in such a manner that a space for accumulating the lint and raveling is defined between the lint and raveling filter and the inner wall of the whole portion of the collecting box except for the opening portion. By provision of the ribs, the lint and raveling can not pass through the interstices of the filter member, and clothing is prevented from directly rubbing against the surface of the filter member. The accumulation of the lint and raveling on the surface of the filter member does not exceed the height of the ribs, and only the portion of the heap of the lint and raveling is collected into a portion of the lint and raveling collector.
