Here, the door R18 is provided so that the clothes are dried with warm air,
Also, when the tumbler is rotating, the clothing comes in direct contact with the clothing and the temperature is higher than about 100 ° C. If the door 2 is opened and touched during driving, care must be taken to prevent burns. It is. Also, if the clothes containing oil are dried, the oil temperature in the clothes may increase even after the operation is completed, and spontaneous ignition may occur. In case of such a case, the door is made tightly closed and becomes oxygen deficient in the drum, not only to self-extinguish but also to cover the door with steel plate,
It is necessary to ensure that the material does not easily melt and spread to the outside even if ignited.
