Abstract

Abstract A moisture remover and a moisture removing appara­tus which comprise a porous body and moisture-absorbing fillers basically. The porous body has continous fine voids having a means hole-diameter of 10 microns or less and a hollow portion therein to take out moisture and/or water. The moisture removing apparatus further comprises suction pump means for facilitating drawing of the moisture and/or the water.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 16
Claim 1
Independent Claim 47 words
A moisture remover comprising; a porous body having continuous fine voids having a mean hole-diameter of 10 microns or less, and moisture-absorbing fillers filled with the voids of the porous body wherein a hollow portion is formed in the porous body to communicate with the outside thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 47 words
A moisture remover comprising; a porous body having continuous fine voids having a mean hole-diameter of 10 microns or less, and moisture-absorbing fillers filled with the voids of the porous body wherein a hollow portion is formed in the porous body to communicate with the outside thereof.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 17 words
The moisture remover as defined in claim 1 wherein the hollow portion opens outside the porous body.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 22 words
The moisture remover as defined in claim 2 wherein the continuous fine voids have a mean hole-diameter of 3 microns or less.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 28 words
The moisture remover as defined in claim 3 wherein the porous body comprises inorganic materials including at least plaster, cement, calcium sili­cate, rock wool, ceramics or sintered bodies.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 27 words

Claim 7
Dependent Claim 19 words
The moisture remover as defined in claim 3 wherein the porous body comprises polyvinyl chloride sheet or polyolefine sheet.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 23 words
The moisture remover as defined in claim 4 wherein the moisture absorbing-fillers comprise deliques­cent substances including at least calcium chloride or lithium chloride.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 28 words
The moisture remover as defined in claim 4 wherein the moisture absorbing-fillers comprise water­soluble high molecules including at least diethy­lene glycol, triethylene glycol, glycerine sodium polyacrylate or PVA.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 30 words
The moisture remover as defined in claim 4 wherein the moisture absorbing-fillers comprise inorganic moisture-absorbing materials including at least bentonite, sepiolite, zeolite, activated alumina, xonotlite, activated carbon or molecular sieves.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 31 words
The moisture remover as defined in claim 4 wherein the moisture absorbing-fillers comprise water­insoluble high molecular moisture-absorbing materials including at least grafted starch, or insobtylene maleate anhydride or both in combination.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 21 words
The moisture remover as defined in claim 4 further comprising a moisture-insulating layer provided on the surface of the porous body.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 56 words
A moisture removing apparatus comprising; a porous body having continuous fine voids having a mean hole-diameter of 10 microns or less, moisture-absorbing fillers filled with the voids of the porous body, said porous body being provided with a hollow portion therein to communicate with the outside thereof, and suction pump means for decompressing said hollow portion.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 56 words
A moisture removing apparatus comprising; a porous body having continuous fine voids having a mean hole-diameter of 10 microns or less, moisture-absorbing fillers filled with the voids of the porous body, said porous body being provided with a hollow portion therein to communicate with the outside thereof, and suction pump means for decompressing said hollow portion.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim 60 words
A moisture removing apparatus comprising; a porous body having continuous fine voids having a mean hole-diameter of 10 microns or less, moisture-absorbing fillers filled with the voids of the porous body, a cover member provided with the porous body to form a space portion on the surface of the porous body, and suction pump means for decompressing the space portion.
