Summary:A clothes dryer includes a drying chamber (3), a heat pump mechanism, and an air circulation path. The heat pump mechanism includes a compressor (41), a heat radiator (32) for radiating the heat of compressed coolant, a throttle unit (42) for reducing the pressure of the high-pressure coolant, and a heat absorber (30) for absorbing heat using the low-pressure coolant. An air circulation path (3,22,31,20) circulates drying air from the drying chamber (3) through the heat absorber (30) and the heat radiator (32) back to the drying chamber (3). The air circulation path (3,22,31,20) is provided with an air discharge port (26) at a position between the drying chamber (3) and the heat absorber (30) so that a part of the drying air (40) flowing through the air circulation path (3,22,31,20) from the drying chamber (3) to the heat absorber (30) is discharged through the air discharge port (26) to outside of the air circulation path.
