Claim:
Drier for a coating plant, which comprises a drier working space for receiving the objects to be dried, wherein the drier working space is bounded by a drier floor, a drier ceiling and at least one lateral boundary wall, wherein the drier comprises a first drier module and a second drier module which together form a drier segment delineating the drier working space and extending in a longitudinal direction of the drier, wherein the first and second drier modules each comprise at least one section of the lateral boundary wall and at least one of a section of the drier floor and a section of the drier ceiling, wherein at least one of the drier floor section and the drier ceiling section is connected to the respective boundary wall section so as to be pivotable relative to the boundary wall section, wherein the drier floor section and the drier ceiling section extend over substantially the entire width of the drier working space, wherein the first drier module and the second drier module are welded together in a substantially gastight manner along a first weld line extending along a free edge of the drier floor section and along a second weld line extending along a free edge of the drier ceiling section, wherein the first and second drier modules are drier modules for a hot air drier, wherein the hot air drier comprises two air supply ducts through which drier supply air to be supplied to the drier working space can flow, wherein the first drier module comprises a section of a lateral boundary wall of the drier working space, a section of the drier floor, a section of an air supply duct floor, a section of an air supply duct side wall and a section of an air supply duct ceiling, wherein the drier floor section of the first drier module is pivotably connected to the air supply duct floor section of the first drier module, and wherein the second drier module comprises a section of a lateral boundary wall of the drier working space, a section of the drier ceiling, a section of an air supply duct floor, a section of an air supply duct side wall and a section of an air supply duct ceiling, wherein the drier ceiling section of the second drier module is pivotably connected to the air supply duct ceiling section of the second drier module.
