Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2080971A2] A closed housing (14) has chamber equipped with air nozzle arrangements. Inlet and outlet openings (18,20) are provided for the articles to be dried. An air inlet opening (26) supplies drying air and an air outlet opening (28) discharges humid exhaust air out of the housing. An inner routing of air flow inside the housing generates a defined removal of air to the air outlet opening. The inner routing of air flow directs past the inlet and/or outlet opening for the bottles to be dried. An independent claim is included for the method of drying articles.
