Dryer

1. A dryer arranged to send gas forward along a central axis extending in a front-rear direction, the dryer comprising:

a body portion;

a first tubular portion arranged to at least partially cover an outer circumferential portion of the body portion; and

a second tubular portion arranged axially behind the first tubular portion, and arranged to at least partially cover the outer circumferential portion of the body portion; wherein

the body portion includes:

an impeller including a plurality of blades arranged in a circumferential direction;

a motor arranged to rotate the impeller about the central axis;

a motor holding portion arranged to hold the motor;

a plurality of connection portions arranged to extend radially outward from an outer circumference of the motor holding portion;

a ring-shaped portion arranged to join radially outer end portions of the plurality of connection portions to one another; and

an outer circumferential joining portion arranged on an outer circumference of the ring-shaped portion;

the first tubular portion includes a first edge portion at an axial rear end thereof, and the second tubular portion includes a second edge portion at an axial front end thereof; and

the outer circumferential joining portion is held between the first and second edge portions.

2. The dryer according to claim 1 , wherein the outer circumferential joining portion includes:

a spacer portion held between the first and second edge portions; and

a holding cover portion arranged to cover at least a portion of an outer circumferential surface of at least one of the first and second edge portions.

3. The dryer according to claim 2 , wherein the holding cover portion is arranged to cover at least a portion of the outer circumferential surface of each of the first and second edge portions.

4. The dryer according to claim 2 , wherein at least one of the first and second edge portions is radially held between the ring-shaped portion and the holding cover portion.

5. The dryer according to claim 2 , wherein the ring-shaped portion is arranged to have an axial dimension greater than an axial dimension of the holding cover portion.

6. The dryer according to claim 2 , wherein the holding cover portion includes a handle attachment portion arranged to make a portion of the outer circumferential surface of each of the first and second edge portions uncovered.

7. The dryer according to claim 1 , wherein

at least one of the first and second tubular portions further includes an outer cover portion arranged radially outward of the first and second edge portions; and

the outer cover portion is arranged to at least partially cover an outer circumferential surface of the outer circumferential joining portion.

8. The dryer according to claim 1 , wherein each of the first and second edge portions is arranged to be substantially parallel to the central axis.

9. The dryer according to claim 1 , wherein

the first edge portion is arranged to have a diameter greater than that of any other portion of the first tubular portion; and

the second edge portion is arranged to have a diameter greater than that of any other portion of the second tubular portion.

10. The dryer according to claim 1 , wherein an outer circumferential surface of the motor holding portion is curved to extend along opposed portions of inner circumferential surfaces of the first and second tubular portions.

11. The dryer according to claim 1 , further comprising a heater arranged inside of the first tubular portion, wherein an axial rear end of the heater is arranged axially rearward of an axial front end of the ring-shaped portion.

12. The dryer according to claim 1 , wherein a gap is defined between an inner circumferential surface of the first tubular portion and an outer circumferential surface of the ring-shaped portion.

13. The dryer according to claim 1 , wherein a material of the outer circumferential joining portion is more elastic than a material of the first tubular portion and a material of the second tubular portion.
