Based on your code above your controller should be like this:

function saveTimeTable()
{
    $idnum=$this->session->userdata('id');
    $days_array = $this->input->post('days_array');

    foreach($days_array as $day){
        $duration=$day*3600;
        $this->mmyhr->modeSaveTimeTable($idnum, $duration);
    }    
}
