Abstract
A forced airflow drying apparatus includes a body including a pair of air inlets to receive inlet air which is channeled to an upstream side of a filter unit, a pair of body airflow generators to generate a first forced airflow, each body airflow generator having a first end and a second end, where the first end of each body airflow generator is opened to a downstream side of the filter unit, a pair of thermoelectric devices configured to control a temperature of the first forced airflow, and a first air outlet, in communication with the second end of each body airflow generator, to receive the forced airflow from the body airflow generators and to expel the forced airflow out of the body. The forced airflow drying apparatus further includes a bar and a drive apparatus configured to movably drive the bar relative to the body, the bar including a second pair of airflow generators to generate a second forced airflow, a pair of resistance heaters to control a temperature of the second forced airflow prior to being expelled from the second air outlet, and a second air outlet to expel the second forced airflow from the bar.
