To provide a clothing drying machine, a washing machine, and a washing machine with clothing drying function which have improved washing, deodorizing, and bactericidal effects by ozone having cleaning effect to decompose soil components in clothing.
An ozone generator 40 applies corona discharge on taken-in air to generate ozone. The ozone is sucked into a drying duct 15 by rotation of a blower 20 and a drum 3, mixed with air heated by a heater 21, and supplied to a drum 3 through an inlet 17. Thus ozone is supplied to clothing to be dried and the clothing is effectively deodorized and sterilized. Since an ozone generator 40 is placed away from a drying duct 15, ozone generating elements can be easily replaced. As ozone in the drum 3 is eliminated by the oxidation reaction after drying, there is no risk to be influenced by the ozone when a user takes out clothing from the drum 3.
