Problems to be Solved by the Invention In such a conventional configuration, the support plate 7 that pivotally supports the drum 3 and the drum holder 8 must be separated and attached to the members 11L and 1b that form the outer frame, respectively. Drum 3. There was a performance problem in that the center of rotation of the fan 4 varied during assembly, making stable rotation impossible. In addition, the drum 3, fan 4, and the electric motor 9 that drives them are assembled separately, resulting in low rigidity.
The drive of the fan belt 14 and drum belt 15 was also unstable. Further, the rotary drum 3, fan 4, and electric motor 9 are not integrated, resulting in extremely poor assembly workability and poor service replacement of the fan belt 14, drum belt 15, etc.
