Abstract
A dehumidification structure includes: a moisture absorbent which has temperature sensitivity for exhibiting hydrophobicity and releasing water at a temperature equal to or higher than a predetermined temperature and for exhibiting hydrophilicity and absorbing water at a temperature lower than the predetermined temperature; a moisture absorbent chamber in which the moisture absorbent is disposed; and a water draining mechanism configured to drain water released from the moisture absorbent and accumulated in the moisture absorbent chamber. The moisture absorbent is provided to allow reception of solar heat or heat from a heating body that is heated by sunlight. The water draining mechanism is configured to drain the water using weight of the water when an amount of water released by the moisture absorbent and accumulated in the moisture absorbent chamber reaches at least a predetermined amount.
