<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To detect a degree of entanglement of the clothing in a rotary drum to release the entanglement. <P>SOLUTION: A clothing drying machine comprises: first electrodes 9 and second electrodes 10 which are provided so as to contact the clothing in a rotary drum 1; first resistance value detection means 18 and second resistance value detection means 19 which detect a resistance value between the first electrodes and a resistance value between the second electrodes, respectively; calculation means 20 connected to the first and second resistance value detection means; and drum rotation control means 21 for controlling rotation of the rotary drum by using an output of the calculation means. The calculation means performs comparison calculation between the magnitudes of the resistance values outputted from the first and second resistance value detection means to detect a degree of entanglement of the clothing in the rotary drum. The drum rotation control means controls the rotation of the rotary drum according to the comparison calculation value of the resistance values outputted from the first and second resistance value detection means, to release the entanglement of the clothing. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
