Disclosed is a laundry treating apparatus. The present invention includes a cabinet, a tub provided within the cabinet, a drum provided within the tub to receive a treatment target therein, the drum made of metallic material, an induction module provided to the tub to heat the drum by induction, an infrared sensor provided to the tub to measure a temperature of the drum, and a barrel lens connected to the infrared sensor so that thermal radiation radiated from the drum enters the barrel lens, wherein the barrel lens includes a guide portion guiding vertically incident thermal radiation to the infrared sensor only.

Provided is a washing agent pump and a laundry treating apparatus having the same. The laundry treating apparatus may include a cabinet, a tub provided within the cabinet, a rotary tub provided within the tub in a rotatable manner, and a washing agent supply unit. The washing agent supply unit may include a storage container to store a liquid washing agent including a liquid detergent or a liquid softener, the storage container being slidably provided in the cabinet, a washing agent supply passage having one side connected to the storage container and another side connected to the tub, and a washing agent delivery device provided in the washing agent supply passage to deliver the liquid washing agent to the tub.

A laundry washing appliance includes a drum that is rotationally operable within a tub. A sanitization mechanism delivers ozone into a processing space defined within the drum for sanitizing laundry within the drum. An ozone generator of the sanitization mechanism generates ozone gas wherein the sanitization mechanism includes an injection device that injects the ozone into the drum during a specific rotational operation of the drum.
