Problems solved by technology

[0010] However, in the drum hinge device of the clothes dryer according to the prior art constructed as above, when the assembly process or the use time increases, the rotation center of the drum and the center of the hinge shaft 132 supported by the bearing 134 may not be aligned. in a straight line
In this case, eccentric wear occurs at the sliding portion 130 where the opening portion 108 of the drum slides, so that the drum cannot rotate smoothly, and when the drum 110 rotates eccentrically, vibration and noise are generated.
