Abstract: A hollow fiber membrane dehumidification device with a housing chamber open to atmosphere via a through hole. Hollow fiber membranes are disposed in the housing chamber and cause compressed air entering from one end to flow through and be discharged at the other end as dehumidified air by discharging moisture to the outside housing chamber. A reflux route is provided to permit a portion of the dehumidified air to flow back to the housing chamber as purged air. First and second orifices are provided on the reflux route wherein the second orifice has an opening diameter larger than that of the first orifice.

Abstract: A hollow fiber membrane dehumidification device that possess hollow fiber membranes that cause the compressed air supplied from one end to the interior to flow through and at the same time discharge moisture in the compressed air to the outside, and by so doing exhausts the compressed air to the other end as dehumidified air. There is a reflux route that causes a portion of the dehumidified air exhausted from the hollow fiber membranes to flow back to the outside of the hollow fiber membranes as purged air and a variable restrictor that is provided on the reflux route that increases or decreases the opening-closing volume in accordance with the increase or the decrease of the pressure of the compressed air that flows through the interior of the hollow membranes.

Abstract: A modified system of an adsorption/regeneration type dehumidifier that is equipped with a dehumidification case that internally supports an adsorption/regeneration type dehumidification cartridge that is inserted from an opening part. A check valve is provided on this dehumidification case that blocks the back flow from the secondary side by its being arranged in the passage that connects with the dry air discharge part of the dehumidification cartridge. A regeneration restrictor is arranged inside fastening holes formed inside the dehumidification case parallel to the check valve. A bottom cover supports the dehumidification cartridge while covering the opening part of the dehumidification case and a modified system of a dehumidifier that includes a hollow-fiber membrane type dehumidification cartridge that can be supported on the interior of the dehumidification case. There is a stopper plug for stopping up the fastening holes of the regeneration restrictor.

Abstract: In the event of an abnormal situation wherein a large volume of dehumidified air leaks to the housing chamber (10), aid is emitted at a pressure above that prescribed towards the air tank of the rear stage.
