Rotating body drive device and fog collection device

Abstract

This invention relates to a drive device for a rotating body that can detect incorrect installation of the rotating body before the shaft insertion hole of the rotating body engages with the motor shaft. The drive device for a rotating body, which mounts the rotating body by inserting the motor shaft of the rotating body motor into the shaft insertion hole of the rotating body, includes: a control unit that, when the rotation of the rotating body begins, reduces the output to the rotating body motor after the rotational speed of the rotating body motor reaches a judgment rotational speed, and determines whether the rotating body is in a correct or incorrect installation state based on subsequent changes in the rotational state of the motor shaft; and a reporting unit that, if the control unit determines that the rotating body is in an incorrect installation state, reports it, and the incorrect installation state of the rotating body can be detected through the report from the reporting unit.
