Abstract (en)

A waterspit-free hand dryer includes a main body (10), an annular air discharge portion (20) and a water absorbing portion (30). The main body (10) generates high pressure airflow. The annular air discharge portion (20) is connected to the main body (10) and includes at least one extending section (21) extended from the main body (10) and a connecting section (22) connected to the extending section (21). The extending section (21) and connecting section (22) surround to form an annular hand drying passage (40) to receive user's hands. The annular air discharge portion (20) further has at least one nozzle (25) on an air discharge surface (23) communicating with the annular air discharge portion (20). The nozzle (25) forms an air discharge angle (±) against the air discharge surface (23) to output the high pressure airflow towards an air discharge side (24). The water absorbing portion (30) is located on the main body (10) and relative to the air discharge side (24) to receive the high pressure airflow output from the nozzle (25).
